* MisBlamed: A common complaint of fans regarding the anime is the reducing of Phoenix and Maya as characters, simplifying their personalities and arcs in order to make the series make marketable. In reality, this is only partially true. While the anime ''does'' cut out a large amount of the CharacterDevelopment the two get over the games as a result of CompressedAdaptation, their personalities are actually the result of {{Woolseyism}}s taken as the original text, with the ENG scripts of the games giving Phoenix a more persistent DeadpanSnarker streak rather than an intentionally generic OnlySaneMan persona, and Maya having her rather immature speech style and mannerisms largely ignored. This naturally throws fans off when watching the anime subbed, given it is naturally TruerToTheText.

* ImprovedSecondAttempt: "Turnabout Big Top" is regarded as one of the weakest cases in the entire series. The anime redeemed this arc by adjusting the characters motives to make them more sympathetic, expanding on their background to flesh them out, and creating some very fun and enjoyable scenes that couldn't be portrayed by the original's VisualNovel format (the moment where the circus cast reenacts Russel Berry's death in the courthouse is often cited as a fan-favorite).
* ItsShortSoItSucks: Some fans' opinion of the anime. Since the animated adaptation doesn't spend time on pointless pressing like someone playing the games does, the court segments in particular can seem rushed.
