History Fanfic / MiaFeyAceAttorneyTheFoolsTurnabout

* AlternateContinuity: The author notes that the timelines of ''VideoGame/Persona5'' and ''VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorney'' both take place in 2016, allowing for there to be some overlap within the two games. However, they also note that some liberties had to be taken due to Mia's death in that game taking place in early September. It is implied that the Metaverse and the Phantom Thieves are a thing, it doesn't seem that they've made it to Okumura. The only target mentioned is Kamoshida and Futaba has stopped being as much of a shut-in as she was before.

* AdaptationalJerkass: Sae's corrupt ways as a prosecutor are more intentional and ruthless than is implied in her game of origin. She behaves more like [[spoiler: her Shadow]] in this fic. It helps her fit in as an ''Ace Attorney'' prosecutor. She is also much harsher to Makoto despite eventually showing that she cares about her. [[spoiler: She [[TookALevelInKindness gets better]] by the end of the story.]]

* AmoralAttorney: Sae Niijima is set up to be this the same way she was in the game, much like many ''Ace Attorney'' prosecutors. She is known for forcing confessions out of people, manipulating evidence, and doing just about anything in the pursuit of a guilty verdict. It's one thing that concerns both Akechi and Makoto.

** While Sae fills the ''Ace Attorney'' role of the antagonistic prosecutor, just like many of them, she is not an inherently bad person. The stress of raising Makoto on her own, along with having to deal with the stresses of her job, drove her to the state of the AmoralAttorney she is.

* AssholeVictim: The victim was Masayoshi Shido, and anyone who has played ''P5'' knows that he will not be missed. His AttemptedRape of his subordinate was mentioned and Ren's intervention is the reason he was on probation in the first place. Mia also mentions that he had some potential connections to Redd White, a known blackmailer. [[spoiler: He used Goro to carry out hits (with the implication that it's through the Metaverse) with the intention of discarding him for not seeing much use for him anymore -- fully knowing that he was his son.]] Even Mia says that she doesn't consider his death a tragedy.

* BigBadEnsemble: Sae and the killer. Sae is the one trying to get Ren convicted for the murder while Mia must find who the real killer is that framed him. [[spoiler: It turns out that the killer, Akechi, is the true BigBad since he was also manipulating Sae.]]

* ChivalrousPervert: Ryuji does seem to have some perverted tendencies such as encouraging Mia to present her cleavage and being interested in Ann's bikini shoots -- she even uses this prospect to get him to escort her to a shoot. However, he is a genuinely good guy at heart. While he does make a comment about Mia being more than a pretty face and nice tits, Mia can tell that the sentiment he was trying to convey was genuine despite its less than ideal wording. And while Ann knows he'll be perving on her during the shoot, she trusts him enough to have him along for protection if necessary.

* PunnyName: The OriginalCharacter who is the manager of the Grand Royal hotel is named '''Grant Roy Al'''bertson.

** When Sae loses her open-and-shut case, she [[LimpAndLivid breaks down]] and releases an ''AtomicFBomb''. [[{{Understatement}} Looks like she didn't take it well.]]

* MsFanservice: Mia and Ann, same as they are in their respective games. Not only do others comment on their looks, both of them {{lampshade|Hanging}} this aspect for the other. Mia narrates how Ann's looks definitely fit a model. Ann openly goes into detail by saying that Mia looks like a model and mentions her face, [[BuxomBeautyStandard proportions]], {{leg|Focus}}s, and facial mole.

* {{Americasia}}: Notably averted. Despite the fact that the ''Ace Attorney'' characters [[LocalizedNameInANonLocalizedSetting keep their localized names]] and the one OC's PunnyName that is clearly Western, the fic is set in Japan similar to [[Anime/AceAttorney the anime]]. With ''Persona 5'' being set in Japan, there was no way around this.

* GratuitousJapanese: Akechi tends to use Japanese honorifics for people. This wouldn't be unusual otherwise since this takes place in Japan, but almost no one else bothers to use them. Most notably, he uses them for Mia (calling her "Fey-san"), who still has her localized name. The only exceptions are Futaba calling Makoto "Mako-chan" (though that's only used as an AffectionateNickname) and Ryuji once calling Makoto {{senpai|Kohai}}. The other characters otherwise use English titles, so Akechi's use of honorifics stands out.

*** When Mia expresses disbelief in the idea of a high school student working with the police as a detective, she illustrates the audacity of it by mentioning the idea of a thirteen-year-old prosecutor. [[CallForward Anyone familiar with the franchise should already hear]] [[WhipItGood the whip cracking]].

* BuxomIsBetter: Both Ryuji and [[AmbiguouslyGay Ohya]] take notice of Mia's bustiness. Although, it seems that she might be somewhat self-conscious about it.

* MsFanservice: Mia and Ann, same as they are in their respective games. Not only do others comment on their looks, both of them {{lampshade|Hanging}} this aspect for the other. Mia narrates how Ann looks definitely fits a model. Ann openly goes into detail by saying that Mia looks like a model and mentions her face, [[BuxomIsBetter proportions]], {{leg|Focus}}s, and facial mole.
