Every time I learn something new about ace attorney the less I think I can guess what it’s about

himeno-ran

would you beleieve me if I told you it's a satire of Japan's unfair and corrupt justice system which targets the court system's presumption of guilt by forcing the player to prove their client's innocence in the face of overwhelming and often manufactured evidence to the contrary

Akward Zombie often barely exaggerates how a game's mechanics work, so I'd believe it.

himeno-ran

yeah no this scene happens almost verbatim

that's just how courts in America work

himeno-ran

while you're not wrong, the game is specifically about Japanese courts which have a legal presumption of guilt and a 98% conviction rate. a police officer's accusation of a crime is effectively a conviction

Yep, this. And they were going to leave it at that but then there were some changes in the Japanese system and the developers were like “OH BOY *rolls up sleeves*” and wrote the second game to address the changes, and it just kind of kept going. Also the American localization of the games has some different details and is largely considered a separate canon from the original Japanese version (so it actually is super relevant to America in English, but uhhh hamburgers are not ramen, and a lot of other more important things are not equivalent).

Ace Attorney was probably what kickstarted the trend of calling the corrupt justice system out on its bullshit, making way for games like Persona 5 that delves really deep into this too

We should appreciate this series a lot more than we already do
