** He does get his moment earlier in the trial, though. [[spoiler:Simon tauntingly asks him if he knows what {{Rakugo}} is. Nahyuta responds by ''[[ShownTheirWork giving a lecture so long and detailed the camera skips most of it]]''. He's about to go into a full ''performance'' at the interested Judge's request only for Athena to interrupt before it takes up the whole day!]]

* Trucy actually appears at the end of the final case. [[spoiler: Because she stowed away in Edgeworth's luggage and he apparently failed to really notice this despite noticing his suitcase was unusually heavy]]. Though one could argue he knew perfectly well what was going on and just let it happen, but it does explain why he's nowhere to be seen once the trial starts. Edgeworth referring to what she did by addressing ''himself'' as "Mr Edgeworth" is amusing in and of itself.

-->'''Phoenix:''' Moving along to things that actually matter...

** Becomes even more hilarious when it's revealed that [[spoiler:Nahyuta actually respects his opponents]]. Just play through the trial again, and imagine him [[spoiler:desperately resisting the urge to apologize to Simon and asking him to ''stop driving him crazy''.]]

* At one point, poor, poor Edgeworth ends up with [[spoiler: Shah'doh]] hanging off his cravat. What sells it is he just stands there with a stony expression, adjusting his glasses, and speaking in what seems to be a flat, resigned sort of tone.

* What about Case 4 doesn't fit here, really? Nahyuta for some reason decides it's a good idea to press all of [[spoiler: Simon's]] buttons AND insult [[spoiler: his abilities as a prosecutor]]. Unfortunately for him, [[spoiler: all this does is make Simon join Athena on the defence and make fun of/antagonise Nahyuta the entire trial]]. What's more, the witnesses aren't ''nearly'' as cooperative with the prosecution as they are in literally any other case in the series- all of them are pretty neutral to both parties except for some odd moments (for instance, Uendo will side with the defence more than the prosecution [[spoiler: so will all his personalities]], and Geiru is more standard [[spoiler: since she's the killer and all]]). Nahyuta actually gets frustrated enough to demand why they won't listen to "a humble servant of Her Holiness". It's quite cathartic if he's been driving you up the wall for the past two cases.

* There's something ''really'' entertaining about [[spoiler: tearing Nick's case to shreds and watching his reactions]]. Well, circumstances[[note]][[AnOfferYouCantRefuse Maya]][[/note]] for why that happens aside, anyway... It's a double-edged blade though- while you might suddenly and completely understand [[spoiler: how prosecutors feel when pwning Nick]], you also, as a result, [[spoiler: are on the receiving end of the Turnabout Terror]]. It's rather easy to see why [[spoiler: he's considered to be a legend when you're not fully aware at every second that he's floundering]].

* The English titles for the DLC episodes bring our heroes' [[ButtMonkey Butt Monkeyness]] to [[BeyondTheImpossible new heights]]: ''"Phoenix Wright/Apollo Justice - Asinine Attorney"''

* In the epilogue, Apollo finally opens his law office in Khura'in. But because his is the first law office to open in 23 years, requests for defense kept pouring in. When we see Apollo in court, he is simultaneously handling 15 cases on his own, which caused him to not go through the autopsy report of his current case. And of course, the judge is not being sympathetic to him, and gives him another case. Nahyuta says that he has 10 more cases for him. As if it is not enough, Rayfa steps up and tells Apollo that she did a promotion run on her way to court and gave him [[UpToEleven ANOTHER 300 more cases.]] This prompts Apollo to loudly yell OBJECTION!!! in the court room.

--> '''Apollo:''' (Huh? What's my old school uniform... [[OhCrap NO! Don't put me in that!]] I'm a grown 24-year-old man!)
--> '''Athena:''' What? A waitress outfit? Well, sure, it's cute, but... (I can't exactly wear it to court, you know?)

* The very existence of Potdino Nikawas. He '''sings testimony.'''

[[spoiler: Which is later used as actual evidence against her!]] Especially hysterical is the name of her "testimony": [[spoiler: ''Marrying Edgey-poo'']].

* In the anime trailer, when Phoenix high-tails it to Khura'in, he accidentally forgets to put his luggage in the taxi, and then spills it at the airport. Same old ButtMonkey we know and love!
