"Katherine Hall and Jeff Master's Piece of Cake!" It's the opening sequence of an old TV show that used to be popular 18 years ago, showing an elaborate song-and-dance routine featuring the two stars of the show, who appear to be baking a cake while dancing. Raymond Shields turns off the television, and talks to a photograph of his mentor, Gregory Edgeworth. He's going back to "that fateful place" alongside Gregory's son, Miles, hoping to find the truth of 18 years ago...

File:GK2 young Tenkai.png

Jeffrey Master / 天海 一誠 (てんかい いっせい Tenkai Issei)

Your client for this case. A world-famous pastry chef, commonly regarded as the world’s best. He hosts the popular TV show "Piece of Cake", which showcases both his cooking and singing skills. His mansion was the scene of the murder.

Isaac Dover / 氷堂 伊作 (ひょうどう いさく Hyōdō Isaku)

The victim of this case. One of the contestants in the dessert competition, whose entry consisted of sherbet-based sculptures of the winter star signs. Not much else is known about him.

Prosecutor / 検事[edit | edit source]

File:PW AAIME Manfred von Karma.png

Manfred von Karma / 狩魔 豪 (かるま ごう Karuma Gō)

Miles' former mentor, a feared prosecutor who never lost a single case in his 40-year career, until he finally met his match in a certain blue-suited defence attorney. Rumours abound of his apparent corruption, and this case marks the beginning of his eventual downfall.

Witness / 目撃者[edit | edit source]

File:GK2 young Kazami.png

Dane Gustavia / 風見 豊 (かざみ ゆたか Kazami Yutaka)

A contestant in the dessert competition. Some of his actions around the time of the murder are suspicious, and his testimony would be incredibly useful - if von Karma would let you speak to him, that is.

Raymond Shields / 信楽 盾之 (しがらき たてゆき Shigaraki Tateyuki)

Katherine Hall / 緒屋敷 司 (おやしき つかさ Oyashiki Tsukasa)

The adoptive daughter of Jeffrey Master. Popularly known as “Miss Kate”, as the co-host on the TV show “Piece of Cake”. She is extremely devoted to Master. An extremely polite girl who welcomes all visitors to Master’s mansion with a freshly-brewed cup of Ceylon tea.

File:PW GK2 Tyrell Badd.png

Tyrell Badd / 馬堂 一徹 (ばどう いってつ Badō Ittetsu)

A homicide detective with the local police force. His distrust of defence attorneys means he will only allow Gregory to investigate the crime scene under his supervision. He has a great fondness for candy, and is constantly sucking on his ever-present lollipop.

File:GK2 Delicia Scones.png

Delicia Scones / デリシー・スコーン (Derishī Sukōn)

One of the contestants in the dessert competition, who reached the finals despite her apparent lack of ability in the kitchen. She has a habit of doling out nicknames for people, despite their protests, and her real age is a mystery to all.

Raymond Shields / 信楽 盾之 (しがらき たてゆき Shigaraki Tateyuki)

Sebastian Debeste / 一柳 弓彦 (いちやなぎ ゆみひこ Ichiyanagi Yumihiko)

A homicide detective with the local police force. The prospect of a raise to his salary is finally mentioned during this investigation, even if it never actually comes to pass.

File:AAIME Kay Faraday.png

Kay Faraday / 一条 美雲 (いちじょう みくも Ichijō Mikumo)

Edgeworth's self-appointed assistant, and the self-proclaimed successor to the Great Thief Yatagarasu. She makes a disturbing discovery in this case, which turns out to be the key to its solution.

File:PW GK2 Mikagami Hakari.png

Justine Courtney / 水鏡 秤 (みかがみ はかり Mikagami Hakari)

A judge, and a member of the Prosecutorial Investigation Committee. As in the previous case, she is reluctant to either allow Edgeworth to investigate the incident, or acknowledge his superiority to Sebastian Debeste.

File:GK2 Hyoudou Isaku.png
