I'm an Ace Attorney fan myself, and part of me would be sad to see this image go, but it doesn't really illustrate this trope well. To people who don't know who Manfred von Karma he is, he just looks like an evil-looking guy in a courtroom, and nothing in the picture even indicates he's an attorney. Keep Until Better Image Suggested and find a picture that actually shows an attorney doing something immoral.

Previous thread. I see the JAFAAC argument, but at the same time the overall combo of his appearance, the courtroom setting, and the caption makes this a weak Keep Until Better Image Suggested case for me.

Keep Until Better Image Suggested as well, but here are a couple of suggestions for the sake of having em:

Devil's Attorney

Not keen on either of those. An evil-looking, well-dressed guy in a courtroom actually illustrates the trope reasonably well in my opinion.

Keep Until Better Image Suggested definitely.

I'm not that familiar with Phoenix Wright, and even I think it's adequate. Keep Until Better Image Suggested.

Yeah, let's keep the current. The facial expression helps.

Yeah, we've got enough consensus to keep the current. I'll tag the page in a sec; locking up.
