Operation: Turnabout (aka Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney — Operation: Turnabout) is an original Ace Attorney fancase by Team LordIban presented in the format of voice-acted animation, with TheGoldCrow reprising his role as Phoenix Wright from the unrelated Turnabout Storm.Some time after the events of PW: AA: Trials & Tribulations, Phoenix and Maya get a brand new case to solve. Mike November, a private at the Allied Nations' Peace Corps, is accused of murdering Captain Janus Harvey, his superior and the head of the Engineering Company with a pressure explosive detonated inside the captain's office.Colorful characters and hijinx await Phoenix and Maya as they attempt to solve the mystery of Captain Harvey's death.See also Phoenix Wright: Devil's Attorney, an earlier series by the same creators and Turnabout Jackpot for the latest series by the team. | |

Goodbye, Cruel World! | |
| Operation: Turnabout (Web Animation) / int_12a59731 | comment |
Goodbye, Cruel World!: Early in the case, Phoenix suggests that maybe Cpt. Janus Harvey took his own life, but the absence of a suicide note leaves him unable to prove his theory. Against all odds, Franziska's team is able to reconstitute a suicide note, leaving her no choice but to accept that the case may not be a murder, but a suicide. However, things get a lot more complicated once Gumshoe interrupts the trial with another suicide note, whose contents are the opposite of the one they found. Ultimately, both notes ended up being fakes, the self-loathing one being written by Dr. Siegfried and the regretless one being written by the actual murderer, Cpt. Renard. | |

Ironic Name | |
| Operation: Turnabout (Web Animation) / int_23781532 | comment |
Ironic Name: Captain Adel Renard, whose first name means "fair or just". This name is ironic, when his crimes are revealed: He sold a dangerous explosives to insurgents in a civil war for the thrills, pushes on Captain Harvey's paranoia so much that he ends up killing his entire company with a bomb to hide his crime, and invokes a legal loophole to escape justice after confessing his crimes in the army to the court, for Phoenix Wright cannot prove he killed Captain Harvey, while Siegfried and Victoria are almost sentenced for his crimes. | |

Death Is Cheap: In the B-Plot concerning Miles Edgeworth's attempt to return home to America from Japan (made to promote the fan translation of Ace Attorney Investigations Miles Edgeworth 2), Miles is killed by a falling piano. Luckily, due to the efforts of Sissel, his death is averted; however, he is still stuck in the airport. | |

Jerk with a Heart of Gold | |
| Operation: Turnabout (Web Animation) / int_4781adbb | comment |
Jerk with a Heart of Gold: While Sgt. Lou Tenant does initially come off as unpleasant towards Phoenix and Maya (albeit not without reason, since Maya did try to trespass), he warms up to them after finding out they're trying to help Mike. He's much more amiable afterwards, noting that he thought Mike was a good man, and that even though he might need to shout and be mean to his soldiers, he's only doing so when he absolutely needs to, as opposed to the much crueler and pettier Cpt. Harvey. He also goes out of his way to explain the meaning behind the Dove of Fidelity medal, and goes to dig for more information for Phoenix and Maya out of his own interest in the case. | |

Spanner in the Works | |
| Operation: Turnabout (Web Animation) / int_60194b82 | comment |
Spanner in the Works: Gumshoe tampered unintentionally with the crime scene by keeping in his pocket a box he found during the investigation. As it is locked, and since he fears Franziska's whip, he decided to not share his blunder with the prosecution until he manages to open it. A Genre Savvy player will expect Gumshoe to interrupt the trial and save Phoenix with a key piece of evidence, but it is hilariously subverted as Franziska's team managed to recover the content of a suicide note that she disclosed in trial, thus grudgingly saving the defense team, right before Gumshoe barges in with the content of the box. Gumshoe is a little disappointed when the court tells him that they are already aware of the suicide letter... until it becomes clear that it is another, different suicide letter he has in his possession. | |

Meaningful Name | |
| Operation: Turnabout (Web Animation) / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: A few characters, as per tradition: Lt. Irene Victoria. Irene means "Peace" and Victoria means "victory", a fitting name for a peacekeeper who helps to clear obstacles with explosives to ensure a bright future. Dr. Jason Siegfried. Jason's first name means "to heal", while his last name means "victory and peace", referring to his position as a doctor for the military peacekeeping regiment. His last name could also refer to his engagement with Lt. Victoria after the events of the story. Captain Janus Harvey. His first name derives from the two-faced Romand god Janus, while his last name refers to Harvey Dent, better known as Batman villain Two-Face. Both his first and last name refers to his two alleged suicide notes, which contrasts greatly in tone. The origin of his first name gets referenced when Dr. Siegfried states that Captain Harvey could have commissioned someone "to immortalize his likeness as if he were some sort of Roman god." Captain Adel Renard. Adel means "Just, fair", fitting for the Chief of Securities, who takes his job very seriously and ensures that the rest of the regiment keep in line, and is referred as a fox by Staff Sergeant Lou Tenant. his first name becomes ironic when his crimes during the civil war is revealed. His last name means fox, an animal often stereotyped to be sly, which Renard most definitely is, when he invokes a legal loophole to escape justice even after confessing his war crimes, by explaining that the court has no jurisdiction to try him for his crimes he did in the army. This gets referenced when Staff Sergeant Lou Tenant refers to Captain Renard as a fox. | |

Mike's brother Charlie follows the same trend, representing the letter C. Staff Sergeant Lou Tenant. This is Lampshaded by the Judge, who mistook him for being an actual lieutenant. Sergeant Tenant quips that he has a hard time with such a name. | |

| Operation: Turnabout (Web Animation) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: In Day 1 of the trial, when Franziska is hurling insults at Phoenix Wright after he brings up a suicide angle, the Judge threatens to hold her under contempt of court. Later, he helps Wright and Franziska to get Captain Renard to stay in court and testify by threatening to hold him under contempt of court, allowing Wright to find the evidence needed to convict him of murdering Captain Harvey. And before that during the first investigation day, Maya hiding inside a box in the corridor leading to the crime scene foreshadows the way Renard managed to stay undetected during private November's surprise visit to Harvey. | |

Random Events Plot | |
| Operation: Turnabout (Web Animation) / int_a07afea2 | comment |
Random Events Plot: The sideplot in the interludes concerning Miles Edgeworth. The characters do have a goal (escape the airport) but the actual story itself is pure madness, as characters from other franchises show up, while time and reality itself gets screwed. | |

Never Speak Ill of the Dead: Averted for Cpt. Janus Harvey: no one is sad that he kicked the bucket. Lt. Victoria makes it clear that she has nothing good to say about him, and Mike November doesn't try to hide that he is glad that this man is gone, including during his testimony for his own trial. Hilarity Ensues. | |

Loophole Abuse | |
| Operation: Turnabout (Web Animation) / int_b1dde8fd | comment |
Loophole Abuse: Cpt. Adel Renard invokes this after confessing his role in the Helios-6 incident by explaining the court has no jurisdiction to try him for crimes committed during his service in the Army, nor can Phoenix clearly prove he murdered Cpt. Harvey, allowing Renard to walk away scott free even after confessing while Siegfried and Victoria are sentenced for his crime. Only Franziska convincing the Judge to threaten contempt of court prevents him from pulling a Karma Houdini. | |

Dead Man's Switch | |
| Operation: Turnabout (Web Animation) / int_b8198b96 | comment |
Dead Man's Switch: After it's finally proven he murdered Cpt. Harvey, Cpt. Adel Renard reveals his last card, a Helios-6 bomb he smuggled into the courtroom complete with a dead man's switch set to trigger if he is incapacitated, and demands to be let out of the courtroom lest he detonate the bomb. Subverted however in that Phoenix deduces the bomb as a dud which is proven after Franziska whips the bomb out of Renard's hand, exposing his bluff. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Operation: Turnabout (Web Animation) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: In addition to the internal shout outs to official Ace Attorney games, there are several to other franchises, memes, and other fan projects including Turnabout Storm and Turnabout Musical. Lordlban has confirmed in a YouTube comment that Captain Janus Harvey's last name is a reference to Harvey Dent from Batman, referring to the duality of his two alleged suicide notes. In Dr. Siegfried's office, on the bookshelf, there are figurines of Megaman, Luigi from Super Mario Bros., Sissel's true form as a cat from Ghost Trick, Professor Layton, and Steve from Minecraft. Special attention is paid towards Siegfried's little pony figurines on the window sill, which are arranged in the form of a court with Rainbow Dash as defendant, prompting Phoenix Wright to state that they are giving him "the strangest case of déjà vu". In Day 2 of the Trial, Phoenix Wright states that he is going to attack Franziska Von Karma's theory "by attacking its weak point." Maya responds, "For massive damage?". This is a reference to the Giant Enemy Crab meme. When Von Karma proceeds to refute Phoenix's argument, Maya states, "It's not very effective, Nick..." referencing the gameplay of Pokémon. The security protocols of Captain Renard's alarm console is a reference to the ??? PROFIT!!!! meme. When Maya spots a briefcase in Captain Renard's office, she states on seeing what it has eaten, referencing the living Luggage from Discworld. When Phoenix Wright uses the magatama to find out about Lt. Victoria's involvement in the Helios-6 Incident, the interrogation is named Lt. Victoria's Secret, possibly a reference to the lingerie brand Victoria's Secret. As the situation in the airport Miles Edgeworth is stuck in becomes more and more absurd, Phoenix Wright and Maya show up, prompting an exasperated Edgeworth to say, "Et tu, Wright and Miss Fey?" Staff Sergeant Tenant refers to Dr. Siegfried as Bones. Later, when talking with Wright before the third day of the trial, he says, "Is little boy blue here a bad enough dude to save November?"" Finally, during the epilogue when he reveals he's been promoted to Lieutenant, he sings the first verse of "Colonel Hathi's March" from The Jungle Book. During his testimony, Captain Renard mentions a Captain Bear of Signals, Captain Wilco of CBRN, and a Captain Kurtz of Special Forces. Phoenix Wright quotes from T.S. Eliot when he states that Captain Harvey "did not go out with a bang, but a whimper", which happens to be a line from The Hollow Men. This line, complete with music when Phoenix can't find Maya: Among the things in Lt. Victoria's office are some TNT Crates. | |

Anti-Villain: Both Dr. Jason Siegfried and Lt. Irene Victoria. They plotted to kill Harvey with a bomb hidden in a plaster bust and make it seem like a suicide with a forged note, but had a change of heart when they realized Mike November had run off to meet Captain Harvey and into possible death, and show much remorse for their actions. Very much averted with the true killer, Adel Renard. | |

Medal of Dishonor: The Dove of Fidelity. It's described as a medal you never want to wear, as it is awarded for being among the sole survivors of an attack. Captain Harvey received one. As it turns out, he isn't the only one who won it: Siegfried and Victoria have one too. All three of them are the sole survivors of the Helios-6 incident. | |
