[edit] Introduction

Ace Attorney (known as Gyakuten Saiban in Japan) is a series of games originally on the GBA, but later ported to the Nintendo DS about a defense attorney. Four games have currently been released in Japan (the fourth exclusively on the DS). The first three games star Phoenix Wright (Naruhodo Ryuichi), and the fourth introduces Apollo Justice.

[edit] About

The Phoenix Wright fandom is ripe with slash fans, although there are a couple of supported het pairings.

The popular internet meme Objection! (often seen on 4chan) was inspired by this series.
