Context YMMV / WizardBarristers

Go To

1* LesYay: Moyo Tento towards Cecil Sudo (although we can't be sure, what [[spoiler:gender, if any, Lucifer normally has]]).
2* RootingForTheEmpire: Considering that wizards tend to do extreme damage in their rampage, Wizard Barristers are considerably hated by the general public and are seen as only a hair removed from their clients. Some audience also hold this view out of universe, rooting for the two Inspectors.
3** This later changed when it becomes clearer how lopsided the laws are, and how [[spoiler: there seems to be a conspiracy pushing for the discrimination of Wuds, not for prejudice, but some ulterior motive.]]
4* SpecialEffectsFailure: The CGI is quite dated and obvious. In the finale, the animation just ''stops''! During a characters death no less! Viewers are left scratching their heads as the voice actors prattle on as if nothing happened. The latter example would eventually be fixed for home releases.
5* TearJerker: Exactly six months after this series ended its run in Japan, Iemasa Kayumi (the voice actor for Kyusaku Odagiri) passed away. It's sad watching this series knowing that it would be one of his last roles.
6* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: The series had the potential to do a ''Franchise/LawAndOrder'' or ''Franchise/AceAttorney''-style story, but with a magical twist.[[note]]Though the latter franchise beat them to the punch with ''[[VideoGame/ProfessorLaytonVsPhoenixWrightAceAttorney Layton vs. Wright]]''.[[/note]] However, after a few episodes the courtroom takes a backseat, and more and more excuses are made as to why the main character is fighting crime rather than defending the accused.
7* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: The animation for most episodes is very, very nice, especially during the action sequences. Particularly when Nozomu Abe is animating.
