** Phoenix when he's [[spoiler:mourning the apparent death of Maya]]. It's one of the few times in the series that he's shown to be really furious, [[spoiler:and he even chews out Barnham when the latter tries to talk to him and his companions]].

Added DiffLines:
* WolfpackBoss: This game introduces cross-examinations of multiple witnesses at once, with Phoenix often getting input from one witness while questioning another to expose contradictions. Every witch trial has at least one segment with multiple witnesses (the trial in London only ever has one witness at a time like in previous ''Ace Attorney'' games), and [[spoiler:the finale [[ExaggeratedTrope takes it to the extreme]] by bringing in a set of ''ten'' witnesses]].

Broken Aesop is now YMMV
Deleted line(s) 67 (click to see context) :
* BrokenAesop: Phoenix and Layton [[spoiler: making a point that there is no such thing as magic]] can be seen as a bit hypocritical, given that both series have [[spoiler: elements of the supernatural as plot points, such as Maya's channeling and Luke's zoolingualism.]] On the other hand, they are actually pretty quick to accept the magic overall and apply their logic in a MagicAIsMagicA sort of way, and only really start unraveling that thread when they notice contradictions in the magic itself.
