Changed line(s) 357 (click to see context) from:
* The entirety of the ''Franchise/AceAttorney'' series plays very loose with the legal system of Japan. The legal system is so skewed out of the realm of reality that it barely resembles the Japanese legal system at all. For one, the courts in ''Ace Attorney'' violate major sections of the Constitution of Japan in regards to legal rights, including the right to not self-incriminate, the right to a fair trial, and protection against unlawful detention. Plus, the games are working from a stance of "guilty until proven innocent", but it's more like "[[GuiltyUntilSomeoneElseIsGuilty guilty until someone else is proven guilty]]". Early games are especially bad about this, as just failing to prove a killer's motivation (even if it's beyond all doubt that someone is the culprit) results in an innocent person going to jail. The games exist in their own fictional version of Earth which makes the disconnect easier to swallow, but still has moments where one questions how this justice system gets anything done.
