Series Synopsis
-Note: I'm
aware of the Japanese title, Gyakuten Saiban: Sono “Shinjitusu”, Igiari.
But that's too long and I will forever know this series as Ace Attorney.
Any and all names from this point will be from the English localization.-
In court,
evidence is the only truth. For some, justice is harder to obtain when the
evidence gets stacked against them. When the innocent are viewed as guilty, it is
the job of lawyers to defend their clients to the bitter end. Such is the goal
of rookie attorney, Phoenix Wright (voiced by Yuki Kaji).
Having at
last earned his lawyer badge, Phoenix finds himself in the courtroom. With
great conviction, he realizes that believing in his clients is not enough.
There are those who hope to conceal the truth from the world. Yet
there are still those who share his ideals.
Phoenix
becomes acquainted with the spirit medium, Maya Fey (voiced by Aoi Yuki).
Meeting under sad circumstances, the two develop a strong partnership. Together
they'll defend anyone with no place left to turn.
Phoenix and
Maya must go up against the toughest of opponents. This often means facing the
brilliant prosecutor, Miles Edgeworth (voiced by Masashi Tamaki). Their styles
may be different, but Phoenix and Miles seek to discover the truth in all
cases.
