tl;dr stick to the games if you like Ace Attorney, but the basic story lines just aren't believable or compelling.

My thoughts on Pheonix Wright,

Fictional lawyers that act like justice driven detectives when in reality lawyers are blood sucking parasites that care about their salaries over justice and principles. The most believable parts of the show are when the lawyers are defending scumbags and asking irrelevant questions. If I close my eyes and pretend that Mr. Ace attorney is not an attorney and more like a detective solving a case, I still find myself unimpressed with the show. I can't take anything seriously, so when 'serious' moments occur or characters preach about justice I just think " You interviewed a damn parrot, the dead ghost of a 34-year-old woman possessed the 6-year-old again and gave her uncomfortable assets, the prosecution whips people when she is unhappy, and every fucking case has some last-minute-no-way-in-hell-it-would-ever-fly-in-real-court evidence that shows up." In regard to the technical aspects of the show, animation is very basic and not impressive. Sometimes a rack of cleavage will just be a block of cleavage.

On the bright side, the music is good, the dub is pretty good, and that's about it. I derived more enjoyment out of this show than SVU at least.
