Blatant contradictions On October 23, 2027 Phoenix Wright was recorded as being 34 years old, and on Oct. 10, 2026, his age was recorded as 33. However, on October 12, 2018, his age was recorded as 26.

The nickname "Nick" (used by his partner, Maya Fey) was chosen based on its believability and similarity to the sound of "Phoenix".
Phoenix has only had one girlfriend in his life: Dahlia Hawthorne. And that was basically the textbook definition of “unhealthy relationship.” Phoenix became dangerously obsessed with her, she tried to kill him, and he was secretly in love with her sister the whole time.
He began wearing a special visor over his eyes that enabled him to see, although it was limited in that he could not see red on a white background. Considering his old self to have "died," he took on the new name "Godot".

Takumi was inspired by Western mystery fiction, most notably Perry Mason, an American work about a fictional defense attorney who operates in much the same fashion as Phoenix Wright. This inspiration would later go on to inspire the naming of the "MASON System" in Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney.
You should just play the game, theres absolutly no need to watch the anime. The anime more or less just felt like an advertisement for a great game.
Pros: Getting to see the first two games animated is a treat for long time Ace Attorney fans; an almost completely faithful adaptation that captures the aura of the series; a decent amount of extras included; a solid English cast.

As court resumes with Phoenix once again against Godot, Iris suddenly claims that she helped cover up Elise's murder after she was allegedly killed by Maya in self-defense. However, her testimony proves false with the reveal of real murder weapon and Elise's identity as Misty. When Iris' attempts to correct her testimony leads to the matter of how Elise's body was brought across the flaming bridge, Phoenix reveals the true meaning of Larry's sketch, which is actually an upside-down view of Elise being swung below the bridge. With this, Phoenix deduces that the Iris standing before him is actually the channelled spirit of Dahlia, who had switched herself with the real Iris during the earthquake the previous day.

The anime achieves a similar effect by having characters produce gusts of wind when pointing their fingers dramatically (or snapping one's fingers in Manfred von Karma 's case), which can literally knock other characters off their feet.

The defense and prosecution benches have switched positions to these in the games. In the games, other than when showing the courtroom in full, the two benches are seen from the judge's perspective, so that the defense attorney is on the left side. In the anime, however, the camera angles are usually shot from the opposite perspective, with the switched benches resulting in the defense remaining on the left, from the viewer's perspective.

IMPORTANT!! Before anyone makes anymore stupid comments about this review, I want to make some things very clear. 1. I HAVE NOT PLAYED THE GAME! Nor do I have any intention to. I don't even own a game system so it's not even plausable. After watching this, I wouldn't play them even if I did play games.
I've come to this thread of a show that does not exist to express my disgust about its second season which will never exist either.
These shows star characters who are adults. They hold down jobs, attend university, raise children or do other independent adult things.

Cases tend to be localized within the city, though some take place well outside city limits, such as Kurain Village and Flight I-390. The main characters of Ace Attorney are lawyers who investigate crime scenes and then take their evidence to court. Throughout the stories, these lawyers work under an intricate system of rules in the crime scene as well as the courtroom .
After Gyakuten Kenji 2, Yamazaki was tasked with directing continuations of the main series, while Takumi returned to the series to work on spinoffs concurrently.
The fourth game sold 160,000 copies on the day of release in Japan, with a total of 250,000 units moved during the first week of release. Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth sold 172,000 units in the week of its release and 42,000 the following week.
Capcom has stated that as of December 2020 the series has sold 8.0 million units worldwide. This success makes Ace Attorney Capcom's 9th best selling game franchise. In addition, as of December 2020 Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy became the best selling individual release of the series with 1.0 million units sold, thereby being celebrated as one of Capcom's Platinum Titles.
He originally conceived the series as a detective game, in which the player takes the role of a "private eye".
The first Gyakuten Saiban (later localized as Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney) was conceived and created by a small team led by Shu Takumi. At the time, Takumi did not know whether the game would be released outside of Japan, so he avoided using plot points and language tricks that would be specific to Japanese culture. After finishing the first game, he asked Mikami whether it would be released outside of Japan, to which the latter replied, "Of course not. No way." Thus, Takumi decided to use whatever plot points and tricks he wanted for the next two sequels.
