ace attorney is a serious game about murder:
- you can just show your stupid fucking attorney’s badge to everyone like an idiot, just because
- a guy who is very obviously NOT phoenix walks into court and pretends to be him, and nobody actually realizes that it’s not him because the guy has spiky hair, a blue suit, and an attorney’s badge (which is made out of cardboard????)
- edgeworth makes an objection and when the judge asks him what’s the matter he just says “i was hoping to come up with a question while i was objecting”
- “Mr. Wellington loves large bananas!”
- your very serious prosecutor rival is actually really into children’s cartoons
- cranky old man with birdseed won’t talk to you until your friend’s dead sister possesses her body and gives her huge tits
- there’s a guy who literally speaks in leetspeek and references shitty memes from 2001
- wolfman thinks of all of his subordinates as “number one” so when they take roll call, instead of counting off properly, every single one of them just shouts out “1”
- on the topic of the number one, 60+ year old prosecutor tells everyone that his atm number is 0001 “because i’m number one”
- 60+ YEAR OLD PROSECUTOR LITERALLY KILLS A MAN AND RAISES HIS SON AS HIS OWN BECAUSE THE MAN GOT HIM A PENALTY DURING A TRIAL
- DEFENSE ATTORNEY DESTROYS PHOENIX’S ENTIRE CAREER AND EVENTUALLY KILLS TWO PEOPLE BECAUSE PHOENIX WAS BETTER THAN HIM IN POKER
- trucy keeps trying to show people her magic panties
- there’s a witness testimony section called “the dissin’ of phoenix wright” and the entire thing is given in the form of rap
- there’s a prosecutor who wears all black and carries around a katana and addresses everybody as “-dono”, which may have been fine in the original game but in the localized version he’s literally just goth ken-sama
- literally everything to do with stepladders
