History Characters / AceAttorneyVictims

* ContraltoOfDanger: Her voice blips are the lower-pitched ones normally used for male characters (except in the ''Trilogy HD'' release for iOS), indicating that she has a deep voice, and [[spoiler:she has unparalleled spiritual power]].

* NotGoodWithPeople: His only close companion is a dog.

* NotGoodWithPeople: Stated to have loved her robot creations Ponco and Clonco, and to have been awkward with people. [[spoiler:Her distance causes outsiders and even Athena herself to question whether Metis really loved her daughter or whether she just saw her as a guinea pig. Ultimately, it's the former that proves to be true.]]

* GrayscaleOfEvil: He's long dead by the time Case 1-5 starts, and is only seen in black-and-white photographs and pictures.

* BareYourMidriff: The same as her successor, though accomplished differently.

* AlliterativeName: '''T'''aifu '''T'''oneido

* MemeticBadass: In-universe. It's rumored among his fans that he spent months fighting bears to train for the show. As such they send him stuffed bears, particularly in memoriam after he dies. However, the presence of stuffed bears in his garbage can may indicate what he thinks of these gifts.

* TheRival: They may have been allies of justice in costume, but behind the scenes he and Matt Engarde had a vicious rivalry. [[spoiler:How vicious? Matt ended it by hiring an assassin to kill Juan]].

An unknown participant in the Judicial Olympics, reportedly being a prosecutor from Mexico.[[spoiler: In actuality, he’s a hitman sent by Nivantess to retrieve a microchip containing his alliances with crime syndicates.]]

* [[spoiler: AssholeVictim: Stabbed and slowly bled to death, but suffice to say, he had it coming.]]
* [[spoiler: TheDragon: to Nivantess.]]
* [[spoiler: TheHeavy: He was sent to kill Yukari Fukashigi by Antino Nivantess to retrieve the files of the World Judicial Union’s criminal ties which she was about to release to the public.]]
* {{Jerkass}}: Not a very pleasant person to be around.
* [[spoiler: KarmicDeath: Stabbed to death by the son of the woman who the former killed 15 years ago. With the same knife she stabbed him with, no less.]]

An unknown participant in the Judicial Olympics, reportedly being a prosecutor from Mexico.

Apollo Justice's biological father, and Thalassa Gramarye's first husband. A world-travelling musician who went by the StageName of 'Jangly Justice'.

* AlliterativeName: '''J'''ove '''J'''ustice.
* BludgeonedToDeath: He was killed by a blow to the back of his head.
* BusmansHoliday: He's a musician... and when he [[spoiler:died in the fire in Khura'in]] he was performing music.
* DubInducedPlotHole: In the English localization (as well as those derived from it) of ''Apollo Justice'', both Zak Gramarye and Spark Brushel state that Jove died in an on-stage accident. This seemingly causes a {{retcon}} in ''Spirit of Justice'', [[spoiler:when Jove's death is shown to be a murder when he was in the Khura'in Royal Residence, giving a private performance to the royal family]], but these details match what was stated in the Japanese version of ''Apollo Justice'', where it's only mentioned that Jove died while performing.
* FirstLove: To Thalassa Gramarye, before he died.
* PapaWolf: [[spoiler:He didn't succeed, but his last moments consisted of him trying his best to save his infant son's life.]]
* ReligiousAndMythologicalThemeNaming: Jove is an alternate name for the Roman god Jupiter. Jupiter is the Roman equivalent of the Greek God Zeus, the father of Apollo.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: Besides his relation to Apollo, he barely figures into the plot, but [[spoiler:a reflective plate he just so happens to have in his field of vision when he died manages to acquit Dhurke and implicate Ga'ran in Amara's attempted assasination]].
* SpannerInTheWorks: [[spoiler:Simply ''being where he was when he died'' nearly derailed Ga'ran's plans in their infancy, and definitely did so 23 years later.]]
* StrongFamilyResemblance: He's the spitting image of Apollo, just older-looking.
* WanderingMinstrel: He's described as having been a modern-day minstrel.

!!Dumas Gloomsbury (''Seiji Yonekura'')
[[quoteright:96:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/seiji.png]]
The head servant of the Sprocket family who was found dead during Ellen and Sorin's wedding reception.
----

* PlotTriggeringDeath: [[spoiler:Her death kicks the plot (and the video game series) into motion.]]

* TheLostLenore: [[spoiler:To Pierce Nichody, who never got over her death and was consumed with resentment and revenge.]]

* AlliterativeName: '''M'''anov '''M'''istree

[[Characters/ProfessorLaytonVsPhoenixWrightAceAttorney PL vs. PWAA]] | [[Characters/TheGreatAceAttorney TGAA]] ([[Characters/TheGreatAceAttorneyMinorCharacters Minor]])-]]]]]

* DiesWideOpen: When the other characters of the case Turnabout Samurai go over Jack Hammer’s death when his body is found in studio one, you can see in the flashback that his eyes are open since you can see the eyelids are open and the pupils are clearly visible. This is in stark contrast to most victims whose eyes are closed when they are found dead.

* PosthumousCharacter: Other than a few exceptions, the most notable being Mia Fey and Turner Grey, the victims are never met by the protagonist before they die.

* ImapledWithExtremePrejudice: Dies from being impaled on a sword.

* AssholeVictims: There are ''many'' victims in this series, so they run the full gamut from 'completely innocent' to 'criminals just as bad as their killers', with a lot of room in between for jerks of all sorts. Some of them only became victims because [[AssassinOutclassin they tried to murder someone else who then fought back]].

* FrameUp: [[spoiler: He drugged Will's lunch and stole his costume to make it look like Will killed Dee. Well, it half worked since Will got blamed, just for the wrong person's death...]]

* KarmicDeath: [[spoiler:He got killed while trying to kill Dee Vasquez (for blackmailing him) and was in the process of trying to frame Will Powers for it. ]]

* FatalMethodActing: He was killed after falling on a fence during the filming of an action scene. [[invoked]]

* RashomonStyle: Phoenix is given two different stories about the malpractice incident, both by witnesses with a personal motivation to distort the truth; Dr. Grey wants to protect his reputation by blaming Mimi (even if he really had been forcing her to work through sleep-deprivation), and Ini wants to protect her sister's memory by blaming Dr. Grey. [[spoiler: Well, it's Mimi protecting her ''own'' memory, but she'd still rather blame her BadBoss than take responsibility herself.]]

* BenevolentBoss: [[ImpliedTrope Implied]], given that Jinxie, who was working as his maid, has no motive to kill him. He must treat her pretty well.

* ScarsAreForever: {{Averted|trope}} as he lacks the double cross-shaped scar on his right arm that is seen in a 13-year-old poster. [[spoiler:PlayedStraight, however, as it proves that he's not the real Mr. Reus]].

* BludgeonedToDeath: Kane was killed by a blow to his head. What exactly was used to cause that blow is never explained[[note]] In the game, at least. The anime shows [[spoiler:Luke]] using an ashtray as the murder weapon.
