comment |
Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All, is the sequel to Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, and therefore, the second entry in the Ace Attorney visual novel series. It was first released for the Game Boy Advance in 2002 and rereleased for the Nintendo DS in 2006.Some time after the events of the first game, Phoenix Wright is back defending an array of new and wacky clients, including the chronically unlucky Maggey Byrde. But when Maya is accused of murder again, Manfred von Karma's proud genius of a daughter, Franziska von Karma, comes to town to prosecute Phoenix's clients to avenge her father. Near the end, the game also highlights the nature of the relationship between Phoenix and Edgeworth.The game features a new element known as Psyche-Locks. Thanks to a special magic item known as a Magatama, Phoenix is able to tell when people are trying to deceive or otherwise hide important information from him during investigations outside of the courtroom. The player is able to break the metaphorical "locks" that visualize these secrets that the characters hide, with this involving the presentation of evidence in a manner not dissimilar to the normal courtroom gameplay. The game also replaces the five-strike system for a virtual health bar where the amount of health lost varies based on the seriousness of the error the player makes (accuse the Judge of hiding the murder weapon, and you'll really be feeling it). Plus, the player can present profiles in addition to evidence.The third game, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Trials and Tribulations, was released in 2003. The Phoenix trilogy as a whole has been compiled and updated for rerelease (including HD art and smoother animations) for multiple systemsnote iOS and Android, Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC as the Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy.Justice For All was adapted into the second half of Ace Attorney's first season in 2016. |

comment |
Dirty Coward: Richard Wellington deliberately caused Phoenix Wright's amnesia in the first case and also murdered Dustin Prince to prevent being exposed as a con artist. Ironically, by doing so he sealed his own fate by stealing the wrong phone. A better example would be Matt Engarde by holding Maya hostage to force Phoenix to try to get a Not Guilty verdict. |

Earn Your Bad Ending: Downplayed Trope, since it isn't more complicated to get, but seeing the bad ending for the final case requires ignoring some very obvious hints, meaning that most of the people who would have gotten it would've seeked it out intentionally. |

The Artifact: A situation in the final case requires Phoenix to give his phone to Edgeworth, which he does by throwing it across the court room. When this happens, the evidence icon for the phone is shown spinning and shrinking, the animation used when presenting evidence in the original GBA release. Subsequent re-releases removed this animation in most instances, but kept it here to illustrate the phone being thrown to Edgeworth. |

Stars Are Souls: Discussed in 2-3. A ringmaster uses this as an euphemism for death for his innocent daughter (in the Japanese version, he says that the dead are sleeping). Unfortunately, she interprets this to mean that death is nothing serious, and unwittingly causes a tragedy as a result. |

The Runaway: Case 3 contains a shockingly tragic inversion of the classic "Circus Runaway" variety. Instead of Acro and Bat running away to join the circus, it was their parents who ran away, and it was the circus that came to them and took them in. |

At the end of Case 3, Gumshoe profusely thanks someone over the phone for coming up with the plan to get Franziska to raid the culprit's room so he'd have to take the murder weapon to court, then Phoenix would realise this. It's then revealed that Gumshoe's advisor is Edgeworth. |

Hitler Ate Sugar: Inverted in an equally illogical manner, oddly enough. In 2-4, Will Powers' testimony mentions some rather incriminating observations about a certain bellboy, who Phoenix knows very well is actually an assassin hired by the defendant, whom he is being blackmailed into getting a acquittal for, namely the bellboy's unusual pattern of stitches and his non-uniform leather gloves. Phoenix's objections to each respectively are "Baseballs have stitches! Are you saying all baseballs are suspicious?!" and "Footballs are made of leather! Are you saying all footballs are suspicious?!". |

Juan Corrida. By all accounts, he wasn't a very nice person. We never get the chance to see if he was nearly as bad as The Rival Matt Engarde, but at the very least, he was willing to break it off with his (emotionally insecure) fiancee for the sole reason of her being Engarde's ex, then use her resulting suicide as a tool to try to tank Engarde's reputation. |

No Sympathy: At one point Edgeworth basically tells Adrian Andrews it's not his problem if she decides to commit suicide. That is just damn cold, to the point of being out of character. Especially since he had seen suicide and did freak out. |

Pay Evil unto Evil: After the rollercoaster that is Case 2-4, nobody seems especially concerned when the court is informed that Franziska von Karma has been put in charge of the culprit's incarceration and she's probably beating the crap out of them with her whip. Given all the culprit has done, the Judge sums up the court's opinion with an approving nod and a "Very good." |

Framing the Guilty Party: Deconstructed. In Case 4, Adrian Andrews finds Juan Corrida dead, and arranges the evidence to point towards Matt Engarde, who she's certain is the killer. She's correct... but when Phoenix untangles her framing, all the evidence now points to her, putting her in serious danger. |

Chekhov's Gun: The scrap of paper in the ringmaster's coat in 2-3. Maya spots it the first time she sees the coat, but Phoenix tells her to quit snooping around in other people's things. The next day, it turns out to be an important piece of evidence. The Big Berry Circus tent becomes a huge plot point in the final case as Maya as Mia spots it from Shelley's new hideout and gives the search party a basic idea on where Maya is based on other descriptions. Even though they don't find her as Shelley ran away with Maya again, they do find three pieces of evidence he left behind in a hurry, one of which is practically Matt's death warrant. |

Painful Persona: It has a darker example with the Arc Villain of its final case, who hates the "sheep's clothing" part of their Bitch in Sheep's Clothing act and genuinely revels in their true, sociopathic nature when they don't have to hide. The culprit from case 2 also qualifies. As part of imitating and living on as her dead sister, Mimi has to make constantly use of Obfuscating Stupidity and also has to study paranormal psychology which she really hates. Once she confesses to her crime at the trial's end she's outright finding solace in the fact that she finally can be herself again after pretending to be someone else for over a year. |

Stage Mom: Morgan Fey is a particularly venomous version; it's clear she's not happy about being passed over as head of the Kurain legacy, and she attempts to frame Maya for murder so that Pearl will become the next head of the Fey family, effectively putting Morgan in charge for the next decade, if not longer. Her attitude towards Maya is particularly tragic considering that Pearl herself idolizes Maya and hangs on her every word. |

Loss of Identity: Edgeworth spends the majority of the game in a foreign country while trying to figure out his identity after both reliving the trauma of the DL-6 case while being framed for another murder and being reminded of the tragedies he caused with his corruption during the SL-9 incident. |

The Ingenue: Deconstructed with Regina. Growing up in the circus sheltered by her dad meant that she has no idea what's real or normal, including the concept that people die. So when she accidentally kills Bat, she feels absolutely no responsibility for her actions. And she actually breaks down in tears when she figures out what her actions led to, at the end of the case. |

Ooh, Me Accent's Slipping |
| | Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All (Visual Novel) / int_35b241c0 |
comment |
A character detail in the Japanese version of Case 3 is Max occasionally reverts to his natural hick dialect in moments of stress and other strong emotions, giving him the impression of someone who struggles to keep up his act when under pressure. This is all but gone from the ENG, where Max's accent effectively vanishes after the scene in which it's established, with him speaking basically the same at all times. This especially sticks out in the game translating his use of his natural "kimi" as "porcupine head" when talking to Phoenix; the former is perfectly normal as a pronoun to use for someone, the latter makes him look like an easily irritable Jerkass to his own lawyer. |

Uncommon Time: The cross-examination themes have a truly bizarre time signature. The "Moderato" version could be described as either 27/16 or alternating bars of 14/16 and 13/16. The "Allegro" version starts with the same rhythm, then changes to 25/16 (13/16 + 12/16) before switching back at the loop. |

Corrupted Contingency: Matt Engarde paid Shelly de Killer to assassinate Juan Corrida, secretly filming the murder as Betrayal Insurance. Unfortunately for the culprit, this action winds up bringing about the very outcome he was trying to avoid — de Killer is a man who values trust between himself and his clients, and when he learns that Engarde has betrayed him, he terminates their relationship, confesses to everything, and declares Engarde his next target, leading to Engarde pleading guilty just to save himself. |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome |
| | Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All (Visual Novel) / int_3ed23024 |
comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: In the final case, Gumshoe steals evidence and takes his personal car to deliver it to the courthouse as soon as possible, promising to run all red lights to do so. He then gets in a car crash because of that (though he didn't hit another car, but a telephone pole). Problem is, he broke his phone in the process and his personal car doesn't have any way of finding it as opposed to a police vehicle, leaving him and the evidence stranded save for Franziska's tracking device. Also in the final case, with how many clients Nick had that were innocent, he'd eventually get one who's actually the culprit. Luckily, when you choose the correct evidence and once he safely can, he happily concedes Engarde to the guilty verdict he rightfully deserves. Adrian Andrews is still arrested, because she tampered with the crime scene to frame Matt Engarde, though he really is guilty. At least she's not in for murder any more. |

Stupidity Is the Only Option: Played straight in 2-4 when Phoenix's client is actually guilty (but Maya is being held hostage by someone who needs to get the man acquitted). Phoenix (and Edgeworth, when he realizes what is going on) have to stall the verdict in order to buy time for Gumshoe to find and rescue Maya, even though the only way to "defend" the scumbag is to point the finger at an innocent woman instead. |

Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right!: Gumshoe puts the law on hold multiple times in case 4, due largely to Maya's kidnapping. He allows Phoenix free access to the crime scene, costing him his job in the process, attempts to sneak a bug sweeper out of the police department to aid with the investigation (instead having to make do with a functional homemade one, and steals evidence in order to get it to court before the verdict is read, stating he intends to run every red light in order to get there on time. |

Found the Killer, Lost the Murderer: There's a complete inversion during case 4 in which the this trope is turned around. At first the killing seems like a straightforward murder. However, the killer was a hired assassin. The one who ordered the hit is declared guilty of murder, but the killer himself gets away clean. |

Not to mention Maya Fey, who gets accused of murder once per game, along with getting kidnapped in this case, and many other things throughout the series. It seems the whole game was this for Franziska von Karma, whose worldview and obsession with perfection are not only challenged by two losses, but by Phoenix willingly and happily accepting his first defeat in court. |

Beneath the Mask: Every new face in the fourth case is hiding a big part of their personality: Adrian was initially shown to be a confident, capable manager, before she is outed to be a dependent woman who latches onto others' words as though they are her own. Matt was shown to be a ditzy actor with a "refreshing like a spring breeze" persona, whereupon he proves to be a misanthropic killer who trusts no one. He even literally masks the side of his face for half of the case. Juan, a popular kids' show actor who probably destroyed Celeste's suicide note and forged a new one implicating Matt Engarde, and was going to present it under Matt's disguise. The bellboy is Shelly de Killer, a professional murderer hired by your client to finish Corrida. He's calm and polite no matter the situation, though. We see that under her cold, merciless, reckless, smug, and arrogant nature, Franziska von Karma clearly has a huge Inferiority Superiority Complex. |

Do Well, But Not Perfect |
| | Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All (Visual Novel) / int_5049f19d |
comment |
Do Well, But Not Perfect: Can occur in the final case depending on Phoenix choosing if Matt Engarde gets a Guilty verdict after Shelley de Killer is pissed off at the latter. Sure, that means his apparent 100% victory rate comes to an end, but Maya is now safe and the whole court is free to whale on Engarde. |

comment |
Book Ends: The first and last days in court overall both open with Phoenix having the same nightmare (of a monstrous Judge declaring him unfit for his attorney's badge, before crushing him with a giant gavel). The first time, it is seemingly caused by a menacing ringtone. The second time adds some more relevant context: Phoenix knows his client is guilty, but he has no choice but to obtain a verdict of "not guilty" in order to save his friend. As such, he feels he is no longer worthy of his badge. Both the first and last trial days involve a romantic relationship with no actual romance, a meaningful gift that ends up being key evidence, the male party dying and his crime scene tampered with, and some writing from the deceased that turns out to be a forgery. Even the way the final witnesses of those trials are introduced in a similar manner, despite two different prosecutors giving the same warning about two very different witnesses. The perpetrators of both the first and last cases are handsome, yet absolutely scummy, irredeemable criminal sociopaths. Matt Engarde just hides it much better than Richard Wellington. With the second case being the first chronologically, it and the fourth cases both involve Lotta Hart in a supporting role, Maya in deep trouble, Pearl taking over for Maya, a visit to the Hotti Clinic, an Asshole Murder Victim whose body gets stabbed but is actually killed by another method, and the true culprit being revealed via a clue in a drastic change in how their eyes look. |

Meta Twist: The whole series plays Good Lawyers, Good Clients very straight for the most part. Farewell, My Turnabout is a major exception, as Matt Engarde turns out not only to be guilty, but is also holding Maya hostage as a way of forcing Phoenix to fight for a not guilty verdict regardless. |

comment |
White-and-Grey Morality: Turnabout Big Top, as lampshaded by Maya. The victim was much beloved, the scapegoat is a bit of a jerk but genuinely cares about the other performers, the original target is genuinely kind though painfully naive, and the killer is a very conflicted figure who also genuinely cares about the others in the circus, but couldn't bring himself to forgive Regina for treating the Deadly Prank that put Bat in a coma like it was no big deal. It's also implied that he intended to turn himself in, but hesitated at the last second because then there would be no one to visit Bat in the hospital. |

Nightmare Sequence: The dream where the shade of the Judge brings a gigantic gavel down on Phoenix, telling him, "You are no longer worthy of your title!" in the opening of the first case. Reappears in the fourth and final case, when Phoenix is deeply conflicted about Maya's kidnapping and the defense of Matt Engarde. It also becomes one of Phoenix's hyper combos in Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, only on a less dramatic angle. |

Figure It Out Yourself: Edgeworth consistently refuses to give Phoenix advice or tell him exactly what he thinks Phoenix needs to learn. Probably wise, since the intended lesson is "Fight for the truth, not because you want to 'save' someone" — something Phoenix would reject outright if he didn't realize it for himself; doubly so given that revealing the truth under the current circumstances means someone dear to him will be killed. |

No Mercy for Murderers: As the title says, has cases where Justice is given to All, even Sympathetic Murderer: Case 2 has Ini Miney, who through a very unfortunate series of events not only kills many people in the hospital but also loses her face and sister and is forced to change her identity. In order to not let this identity be revealed, she had to murder. Arrested like every other culprit worse than her. Case 3 has Acro, who lost his legs and his brother got into coma. This, combined with Regina's honest belief that his brother became a star, angered him and caused him to commit the murder. Arrested like any other culprit worse than him. |

Late-Arrival Spoiler: Edgeworth has his own spinoff, so the early-game Red Herring of his death doesn't really take. The whole plotline smacks of Like You Would Really Do It anyway, but it's particularly ineffective since Edgeworth has been advertised in so many sequels. He's even on the box art of the DS version. |

Starter Villain |
| | Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All (Visual Novel) / int_60ea2a89 |
comment |
In the original Japanese, Richard Wellington is explicitly referred to as a ronin, a young man who failed his university entrance exams and now wanders until his next chance, an obvious contrast with how utterly self-absorbed and pretentious he is, which put alongside his constant insistence about the merits of university and his insistence on being called "almost a university student" in his introduction gives the effect of someone deeply insecure about his position in life. The localization translates this rather literally as "drifter", a word which means something almost completely different note Someone who moves between locations and jobs without attachment, or "drift" between them., while leaving the majority of his dialogue untouched, leaving him appearing as just a stuck-up Jerkass with an inexplicable obsession with university. |

Sequel Hook: Two of them, one of which has not been picked up on yet. Case 2 ends with Morgan announcing she will wait for her next opportunity to get Maya out of the picture and make Pearl the next Master of Kurain. This would come to fruition in the final case of Trials and Tribulations. Case 4 ends with Franziska saying she will eventually give Phoenix the last piece of evidence which never reached him (the card Maya drew a picture on). This has not happened yet. |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero! |
| | Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All (Visual Novel) / int_7fbb2a3 |
comment |
Something of an odd clash of this and inverted Nice Job Breaking It, Hero on the villain's end in 2-4. De Killer thinks he's doing Phoenix a favor by shooting Franziska, thinking to get a mistrial or at least an easy acquittal for Matt Engarde when an unprepared prosecutor takes her place. True, Franziska had a very systematic plan for getting her victory but the person who replaces her is Edgeworth, who realizes midway through the first session that something is wrong and teams up with Phoenix to save Maya. So basically, the villain succeeds in helping Phoenix only too well. |

Sdrawkcab Name |
| | Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All (Visual Novel) / int_808b6d16 |
comment |
Sdrawkcab Name: In the Japanese version of case 3, the tiger and monkey are named Ratou and Ruusaa, reversed versions of the Japanese words for "tiger" and "monkey" respectively (with the vowels lengthened as well). The English localization breaks the pattern and just names them "Regent" and "Money" instead. |

Mundane Fantastic: In case 2, Maya is photographed while channeling a spirit, which physically changes her to look like the spirit. Nobody is interested in the fact that Franziska captured psychic powers on camera, it's just another bit of evidence in the case which she admits is completely illegal and doesn't submit it to the Court Record, but because the Judge saw it as per her intentions, he now knows that it's plausible. |

Right for the Wrong Reasons |
| | Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All (Visual Novel) / int_83cef301 |
comment |
Right for the Wrong Reasons: In Case 2-4, Wendy Oldbag is absolutely convinced that Matt Engarde is, in her words, "an evil, evil man." How she reached this (completely correct) conclusion? She thinks he ordered his manager to get close to Juan Corrida in order to cause a scandal. Not so correct. Phoenix can also be this if he calls Matt "a hero of justice" after he shows him why he knows Shelly de Killer. Yes, Matt IS planning to expose Shelly's evil plot... but not to stop his crimes, only to blackmail him. His motive is anything BUT heroic. |

Story-Breaker Power: The Magatama allows the user to see Psyche-Locks surrounding someone if they ask them a question they try to hide the answer to. While it's exceptionally good on the field to gather information, it's never used in court and there's a rather serious drawback of its power if the question is answered with Exact Words, such as if the defendant honestly answers they didn't kill anyone. This is technically true, it's just that the hitman they hired did it. |

You Can't Get Ye Flask |
| | Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All (Visual Novel) / int_8c83208f |
comment |
You Can't Get Ye Flask: 2-1 revolves around a murder where the victim was pushed from a ledge and died of a broken neck upon impact. The defendant is accused because the victim wrote her name in the sand with his finger before expiring. You are not allowed to argue that it wouldn't have been possible for someone with a shattered neck to write a name, even if he didn't die immediately. 2-3 has the scrap of paper in the ringmaster's coat. You can't get it until the second day, after showing the top half of the note to Max, because Phoenix suddenly takes exception to rifling through other people's stuff in that specific case (in spite of the fact that you take a copy of Max's salary negotiations from the same room, and Maya steals a poster off the wall). |

Bears Are Bad News |
| | Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All (Visual Novel) / int_8d718b9e |
comment |
Bears Are Bad News: Juan Corrida is strongly associated with bears (most likely due to a PR move) and his room is full of nearly every bear-related object known to man. The whole reason he is killed is because Matt discovered Juan had a fake suicide note written by "Celeste" that would have ruined his image. The note was hidden in a bear which was to be given to Matt after Juan was murdered. And the camera hidden inside of the bear's eye ends up an incredibly crucial piece of evidence, because it recorded the murder as it happened to potentially blackmail the killer. |

The Non-Standard Game Over is this for both Phoenix and the client. The very guilty Matt Engarde escapes conviction for the murder of Juan Corrida, but the pristine public image he'd fought so hard to protect is left in tatters. The court uncovers his role in driving Celeste Inpax to suicide, which was the exact thing he'd had Juan silenced to keep from getting out. Meanwhile, Phoenix won the case and got Maya freed, but at the cost of knowing he sent an innocent women to jail in his client's place, causing him to resign as a lawyer and never seeing Maya again. |

"Blind Idiot" Translation: The English translation of this game was riddled with typos, such as "surly" for "surely" and "alter" for "altar." It also included the infamous, memetic bad ending line "The miracle never happen". The iOS port is even worse, at one point calling a piece of evidence a "Hotel Guidernap." The Trilogy re-release did correct most of these, however. |

Just Giving Orders: Phoenix's assistant Maya gets kidnapped close to the beginning of the final case as ransom to get you to defend a famous film star, Matt Engarde, in a murder trial. Phoenix happens to have a magical lie detector and when he asks Engarde if he did it, he responds that he never killed anyone. It later turns out that Engarde actually hired an assassin, and he reveals his dim-witted laid-back personality was all a facade by reintroducing himself. "How do you do, Mister Lawyer? I'm Matt Engarde". The lie detector didn't work because he didn't personally kill the victim; the assassin he hired to do it did. |

The ending of the case is also the same for Matt, if Phoenix choses to plead "Not Guilty". Phoenix rubs it in that once Matt steps out of the courtroom, he'll no longer be in police custody and de Killer will be happy to snuff him out at the first chance. Matt has a hell of a Villainous Breakdown and demands to be declared guilty instead. |

As You Know: When Maggey first appears, she provides some initial background on her situation—that she was falsely accused of a crime, and other lawyers refused to help her before Phoenix agreed to take her case—when telling him that she's counting on him. Since all of this should be stuff that Phoenix already knows (he actually doesn't at the moment thanks to his temporary amnesia, but Maggey doesn't know that), the dialogue clearly exists entirely for the audience's benefit. |

Foreshadowing: In the second case, pay close attention to the cutscene of the car accident. Specifically, silhouette of the survivor. It's fairly obvious that the survivor had long, straight hair. Ini has short, curled hair, but Mimi's hair is long and straight. Why is the fourth case called "Farewell, My Turnabout"? Because it's the first case that Phoenix loses, and he's saying farewell to his perfect record of "turnabouts" — and that's a good thing, since the defendant turns out to be the killer. There's an easy to miss example during "Turnabout Big Top". If you examine the photos at the top of the wall in the Ringmaster's room, Maya mentions they should make a gallery of all the clients Phoenix has had. Phoenix then asks about the guilty ones. On the first play through, this is laughable, and is just Maya and Phoenix being themselves. Aaaaand then Farewell, My Turnabout happens. |

My Nayme Is: Maggey's unusual name spelling is a plot point in the first case, and the very first piece of evidence used in the trial. The victim, Dustin Prince, seemingly left a Dying Clue to identify his killer by writing their name in the sand, but it was written as "Maggie", the far more common spelling of the name. As Phoenix points out, since Maggey and Dustin were dating for six months, there's no way he wouldn't have known how to correctly spell her name, meaning that he didn't write it and the real killer did so to frame her. |

Circus Episode: The third case is about a murder at the Berry Big Circus. The star performer has been accused of killing the ringmaster, and the witnesses include other performers like a kooky clown, a ventriloquist whose puppet does most of the talking, and an acrobat. |

The culprit from case 2 also qualifies. As part of imitating and living on as her dead sister, Mimi has to make constantly use of Obfuscating Stupidity and also has to study paranormal psychology which she really hates. Once she confesses to her crime at the trial's end she's outright finding solace in the fact that she finally can be herself again after pretending to be someone else for over a year. |

Dramatic Irony: In case 4, while investigating his client's house to feed his cat, Phoenix and Pearl are completely unaware that — as the player would know by an earlier scene — that this house is where his assistant, Maya, is/was being held hostage. Also, the bellboy the player speaks to in the house is unknown by Wright to be (but known by the player to be) the real hitman hired by Engarde to kill Corrida that took Maya hostage. |

Nice Job Fixing It, Villain |
| | Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All (Visual Novel) / int_acf33d00 |
comment |
Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: Something of an odd clash of this and inverted Nice Job Breaking It, Hero on the villain's end in 2-4. De Killer thinks he's doing Phoenix a favor by shooting Franziska, thinking to get a mistrial or at least an easy acquittal for Matt Engarde when an unprepared prosecutor takes her place. True, Franziska had a very systematic plan for getting her victory but the person who replaces her is Edgeworth, who realizes midway through the first session that something is wrong and teams up with Phoenix to save Maya. So basically, the villain succeeds in helping Phoenix only too well. This also ends up being Phoenix's saving grace in the third case. Thanks to the search on Acro's room, he didn't have the mobility to leave the room nor the means to dispose of the murder weapon, so he did the only thing he could think of: He hid the weapon under his wheelchair and wore a blanket over his lap the whole time. Franziska was so proud of turning the room upside-down for evidence that she didn't know she had accidentally brought a witness to the courtroom with the murder weapon still on him, and once she realizes this, she is beside herself furious. Everyone congratulates her for doing so, believing it was a deliberate method to expose the murderer while she mutters to herself in anger and asks why she executed the surprise search. Made more hilarious when you realize Gumshoe had given her the idea, and that Edgeworth gave the idea to Gumshoe, so the idea to execute a surprise search wasn't her own, but she was so caught up in winning the case she did it anyways. |

He has a Played for Laughs one earlier when he realizes that Wendy Oldbag is a witness. |

Pyrrhic Victory |
| | Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All (Visual Novel) / int_ad9fbc1e |
comment |
Pyrrhic Victory: The Non-Standard Game Over is this for both Phoenix and the client. The very guilty Matt Engarde escapes conviction for the murder of Juan Corrida, but the pristine public image he'd fought so hard to protect is left in tatters. The court uncovers his role in driving Celeste Inpax to suicide, which was the exact thing he'd had Juan silenced to keep from getting out. Meanwhile, Phoenix won the case and got Maya freed, but at the cost of knowing he sent an innocent women to jail in his client's place, causing him to resign as a lawyer and never seeing Maya again. The ending of the case is also the same for Matt, if Phoenix choses to plead "Not Guilty". Phoenix rubs it in that once Matt steps out of the courtroom, he'll no longer be in police custody and de Killer will be happy to snuff him out at the first chance. Matt has a hell of a Villainous Breakdown and demands to be declared guilty instead. |

Cycle of Revenge: Case 2-4 is one springing from a cycle of petty one-upsmanship between two actors that catches some bystanders up in it as collateral damage. The case involves the following part (though it's implied there's more to the rivalry): Matt reveals to Juan that his fiance is Matt's ex. Juan breaks it off with her, which causes her to commit suicide. Juan then forges a suicide note detailing Matt's wrong-doing, which Juan hides to use later. Her protegee, Adrian, begins seeing Juan to get close to him to find the note and burn it to save her further disgrace. Juan plans to publish the note as payback, but Matt has him killed first, and Adrian tries to frame Matt directly for the murder his assassin carried out, to make sure he doesn't get away. |

Lost in Translation |
| | Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All (Visual Novel) / int_b7920c43 |
comment |
Lost in Translation: In the original Japanese, Richard Wellington is explicitly referred to as a ronin, a young man who failed his university entrance exams and now wanders until his next chance, an obvious contrast with how utterly self-absorbed and pretentious he is, which put alongside his constant insistence about the merits of university and his insistence on being called "almost a university student" in his introduction gives the effect of someone deeply insecure about his position in life. The localization translates this rather literally as "drifter", a word which means something almost completely different note Someone who moves between locations and jobs without attachment, or "drift" between them., while leaving the majority of his dialogue untouched, leaving him appearing as just a stuck-up Jerkass with an inexplicable obsession with university. It's a plot point that Pearl can't read — and you wouldn't be alone in thinking that the concept of an eight year-old, even one who lives in an isolated village of ascetics, who can't read a three-letter word borders on the absurd. However, in the Japanese script, the problem is that she can't read kanji in particular, which is perfectly realistic — even native Japanese speakers have problems with kanji, and they're the main factor in why achievement of literacy is considered to coincide with high school graduation. Additionally, in the Japanese version, the puzzle is significantly harder because the reassembled urn says "å�ä¾›" (kodomo, meaning "kid"), while Ami's name is listed in katakana as "ã‚ョウコ" (Kyouko). Not only was it reassmbled backwards (å�ä¾› vs ä¾›å�), but the name is listed in a different script than what is written on the urn and it uses a different kanji reading for ä¾› (kyou vs domo). Done visually in Case 2, an important piece of information near the end of the case is the layout of the car involved in Mimi Miney's accident, specifically the fact that the car involved had a mirrored layout compared to the norm because it was imported. While the dialogue keeps this consistent via Keep It Foreign, with the American car in a Japanese world changed to a British car in an American world, the cutscene that shows the car accident also shows the fire engulfing the right side of the car, meaning that Miney had no chance of getting through the car's right doors. A keen eye will notice something off should one remember that a Japanese car has the driver's seat on the right, making a visual clue in the original version into a confusing double Red Herring in the translation. A character detail in the Japanese version of Case 3 is Max occasionally reverts to his natural hick dialect in moments of stress and other strong emotions, giving him the impression of someone who struggles to keep up his act when under pressure. This is all but gone from the ENG, where Max's accent effectively vanishes after the scene in which it's established, with him speaking basically the same at all times. This especially sticks out in the game translating his use of his natural "kimi" as "porcupine head" when talking to Phoenix; the former is perfectly normal as a pronoun to use for someone, the latter makes him look like an easily irritable Jerkass to his own lawyer. In Case 4, after finding the robotic bear in Corrida's hotel room, a rather strange conversation occurs where, after hearing that it's a robot, Pearl suddenly starts excitably asking what its horsepower is while Phoenix awkwardly tries to correct her. The reason for the conversation is that the translators missed that the exchange was meant to be a Shout-Out to Astro Boy, where "horsepower" was used generally as a form of Power Levels, hence the joke was Pearl associating "robot" with the anime she's watched. |

Demoted to Extra: Maya spends most of the game sidelined in favor of Pearl — and, for part of the first case, Maggey Byrde — and only really takes much of a part in the third case. Not to say that she doesn't play much of a role in the overall storyline, though, she just spends most of it in the background (to the point where she doesn't even appear on the game's cover art; Pearl takes her spot instead). Then horribly averted in the final case. |

Sadistic Choice: In case 4. Get your guilty-as-hell client Matt Engarde acquitted to spare Maya (Engarde has her held hostage by an assassin) and let an innocent woman be convicted for his crime, or sacrifice Maya to give him the verdict he deserves. On the plus side, turning the case around (by proving Engarde has blackmail material on the assassin and thus plans to betray him) gives Engarde his own Sadistic Choice: plead guilty to murder, or plead not guilty...and be targeted by that very same assassin the moment he's out of custody. |

Non-Standard Game Over |
| | Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All (Visual Novel) / int_c03fec8b |
comment |
Nonstandard Game Over: Happens in 2-4, if you don't present the right piece of evidence to the right person near the end of the case. However, instead of getting a "Guilty" verdict, it's a "Not Guilty" verdict for the guilty-as-hell defendant. As a result, Adrian Andrews is wrongfully convicted for Juan Corrida's murder. Phoenix gives up being a lawyer out of shame and guilt and he never sees Maya again. |

Shout-Out |
| | Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All (Visual Novel) / int_c75df49a |
comment |
In Case 4, after finding the robotic bear in Corrida's hotel room, a rather strange conversation occurs where, after hearing that it's a robot, Pearl suddenly starts excitably asking what its horsepower is while Phoenix awkwardly tries to correct her. The reason for the conversation is that the translators missed that the exchange was meant to be a Shout-Out to Astro Boy, where "horsepower" was used generally as a form of Power Levels, hence the joke was Pearl associating "robot" with the anime she's watched. |

Bait-and-Switch Credits: The opening scene and first 10 or so minutes of "Farewell, My Turnabout" purposely mislead the player into thinking that this case will be like the first game's "Turnabout Samurai" (even featuring Will Powers and Wendy Oldbag, two characters from that case), so that Maya's kidnapping and everything else that follows hits the player hard. |

No Badge? No Problem!: During the third case, Gumshoe says he won't let Phoenix into a crime scene simply because he flashed his attorney's badge again. Maya states that he would if they were to show a Steel Samurai badge. Gumshoe's response implies that yes, it would indeed work. "Crime scene security" obviously doesn't exist in the Ace Attorney world, or if it does, Gumshoe's never heard of it. |

Hoist by His Own Petard |
| | Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All (Visual Novel) / int_d397657d |
comment |
Hoist by His Own Petard: In a non-villainous example, Pearl teaches Phoenix how to use the Magatama to tell when people are lying. She ends up being one of the people he uses it on later in the case. Richard Wellington attempts to avoid suspicion by smacking Phoenix over the head with a fire extinguisher and stealing their phone back, which had been taken in as evidence, but ends up sealing his fate instead when he accidentally steals Phoenix's phone, thus oroving his guilt when Maya rings it in the middle of the courtroom. In the final case, Matt Engarde manages to sign their own death warrant by attempting to create blackmail for Shelly de Killer with a secret camera recording the murder. When Shelly finds out about this from Phoenix, who had been blackmailed into taking Engarde's case, he vows to hunt Engarde to the ends of the earth. |

Turns out to be inverted. Juan Corrida dumped his fiancee Celeste Inpax after his rival, Matt Engarde, told him he used to date her. |

Red Herring: At the beginning of Case 2-4, the rivalry between two film studios is discussed at length. What does this have to do with the case? Nothing. The rivalry between individual people working at those studios is relevant, but the studio rivalry means nothing to the case. Evidence wise, the Judge's business card, the autopsy reports for Dr. Grey and Russell Berry, the Gatewater Hotel map, the gun Shelley used to shoot Franziska, and the Gatewater uniform button are all useless. |

Contrived Coincidence |
| | Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All (Visual Novel) / int_dc579c91 |
comment |
Contrived Coincidence: Three of them make Phoenix's case harder (and reinforce Maggey's Butt-Monkey status) in Case 2-1: Maggey and Richard having the same exact eyeglass prescription (which leads to Maggey being accused of murder when Richard's glasses are found underneath the victim), Phoenix and Richard having the same exact phone model and color (leading to Richard accidentally swiping Phoenix's phone after he attacks him when he meant to grab his own), and Maggey happening to accidentally step on her glasses and break them around the same time the pair of broken glasses was found underneath the victim. Case 2-3 has one that results in Phoenix's client being framed by accident, rather than deliberately or as a last-minute improvisation. When Russell Berry left his meeting with Max to go to the meeting that the killer requested for his daughter, he wore Max's coast. The killer kills him by dropping a bust of the defendant on his head. As the killer retrieves the bust with a rope pulley, the cape just so happens to get snagged on the bust so that it looks like the defendant is flying away from the scene, his signature magic trick. In Case 2-4, proving that Shelley de Killer never met Adrian Andrews in person hinges on de Killer referring to her as "he", mistaking her for a man based on her unisex name. But this mistake requires everyone else to refer to Adrian Andrews without any pronouns, repeatedly referring to her as just "Adrian Andrews" in a repetitive manner, and as "your client" repeatedly rather than the more natural "she" or "her". This isn't as contrived in Japanese, where writing around gendered pronouns is easier than in English. |

Exact Words: While the magic powers of the Magatama make for a pretty good Lie Detector, it's triggered when the target feels like they've got something to hide. One person manages to (unknowingly) fool the Magatama because he was being completely honest about the specific questions that Phoenix asks... but Phoenix doesn't ask the right questions. Matt Engarde really was framed for killing Juan Corrida, was indeed napping during the murder, and killed nobody... because he had an assassin do the dirty work, and the person who framed him did it because she suspected he was responsible. He is legally responsible for the crime, but that's not what Phoenix asked so it's not what Phoenix got. |

In 2-4, Adrian Andrews applies. Not to mention Maya Fey, who gets accused of murder once per game, along with getting kidnapped in this case, and many other things throughout the series. |

Oddball in the Series |
| | Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All (Visual Novel) / int_f068cba |
comment |
Oddball in the Series: This is the only game in the series that lacks an overarching mystery spanning multiple cases. All four of Justice for All's cases are standalone. Furthermore, taking the first game's "Rise From the Ashes" case into account, Justice for All is the only game in the main trilogy to have only four cases (and one of two in the main games to do so, the other game being Apollo Justice). |

Locked Out of the Loop |
| | Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All (Visual Novel) / int_f06b07ff |
comment |
Locked Out of the Loop: The Judge in the final case. He's completely unaware that Phoenix knows that Engarde is guilty and is being blackmailed with Maya's life into getting a not guilty verdict, thus leading him to be very confused as to why Phoenix is so desperate to get the trial done in a day or why both Phoenix and Edgeworth keep dragging the trial out even when they're about to win. |

Keep It Foreign |
| | Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All (Visual Novel) / int_f22f395f |
comment |
Done visually in Case 2, an important piece of information near the end of the case is the layout of the car involved in Mimi Miney's accident, specifically the fact that the car involved had a mirrored layout compared to the norm because it was imported. While the dialogue keeps this consistent via Keep It Foreign, with the American car in a Japanese world changed to a British car in an American world, the cutscene that shows the car accident also shows the fire engulfing the right side of the car, meaning that Miney had no chance of getting through the car's right doors. A keen eye will notice something off should one remember that a Japanese car has the driver's seat on the right, making a visual clue in the original version into a confusing double Red Herring in the translation. |

Earn Your Happy Ending: Farewell, My Turnabout, full stop. After Maya is kidnapped for days by a Professional Killer and Phoenix is forced between letting a guilty-as-hell client go free with a basically innocent woman being convicted in his place or having Maya be killed, and several close-calls, by the end, Engarde is begging to be sent to jail, Maya gets safely released, and Phoenix rekindles his friendship with Edgeworth. |

Shoo Out the Clowns |

comment |
Shoo Out the Clowns: Case 4. Right at the start of the case, Maya gets kidnapped, instantly raising the stakes. As the case progresses, the other comedic characters become significantly less prominent; Lotta and Oldbag don't show up on the second trial day, Gumshoe gets dangerous, and Engarde turns out to be the culprit. As a result, this case is easily one of the darkest in the entire franchise. |

Running Gag: During Lotta's first testimony in Case 2-2, because Phoenix was also there and broke a door down, he's asked by Franziska to testify like a witness several times. |
