Description

Ace Attorney 5 marks the return of Phoenix Wright as the main protagonist of the series since the original trilogy. The game takes place one year after Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney, the events of which cleared Wright's name of the circumstances behind his disbarment and allowed him to practice law again. He will be accompanied by a new assistant, a rookie defense attorney and psychologist named Kokone Kizuki. The first case in the game will see Wright go up against the younger brother of Winston Payne, a recurring character in the series, as he defends a high school student who is charged for causing an explosion at the courthouse.

Description

"Ace Attorney" and main character of the first three games, Phoenix has wanted to be a defense lawyer since he was a kid, and first appears as the new addition to Mia Fey's law practice.

Phoenix is generally easy-going, which usually leads to his friends leading him around. He's dedicated to defending his innocent clients, but because he's just starting out he depends a lot on his boss and mentor, Mia Fey. Phoenix is also a loyal friend who won't back down once he's set his mind on something. He has a bit of a sarcastic side that he usually keeps to himself.

Description

Housuke tends to be sarcastic and critical. He often makes blunt comments concerning his mentor Naruhodou Ryuuichi's piano playing in particular. He occasionally even shows some disdain for some of his clients. He also has a vain side; he frequently makes puns out of his own name, and he practices his shouting for hours at night, calling it his "Chords of Steel", which sometimes makes his voice raspy. Underneath it all, he is serious about his job, and he cares deeply about justice. He is also caring, frequently worrying about Trucy Wright as well as his clients.

In court, Odoroki Housuke is often unsure of himself and easily flustered. He has been shown to suffer somewhat from stage fright in court. However, he is just as determined as his mentor was. His training under his former mentor, Kirihito Garyuu, has led him to rely mostly on facts and arguments, which often puts him at odds with Naruhodou's use of questionable tactics. Housuke has also adopted Kirihito's serious attitude, which conflicts with Wright's easygoing manner. Housuke's unusual hairstyle frightens many of the defendants or witnesses whom he sees, though unlike Naruhodou, who claims his hair is "natural," Housuke uses hair gel.

Housuke is afraid of heights and rides a bike. Additionally, when talking about newspapers, he has admitted that he only reads the funnies. Housuke claims to be good with astrology and hula hoops. The bracelet Housuke has helps him to focus on the nervous habits of other people. When Housuke feels his bracelet getting tighter during a cross-examination, he knows to focus on the witness.

Description

Pearl Fey is Maya Fey's cousin and the youngest known girl in the Fey clan during the time of Phoenix Wright's career. She is a prodigy among spirit mediums, having "intense spiritual power", and also having knowledge of the Fey clan that exceeds Maya's, who is expected to assume the title of Kurain Master.

Although usually a cheerful and innocent little girl, upon meeting strangers, Pearl will not say anything and will instead quickly run away. Even if a stranger greets her nicely, or even if Maya herself introduces him or her, it takes a long time to gain her trust. This is due to her mother teaching her to do this whenever a suspicious-looking person tries to talk to her. Wright has noted her speech, and even her laugh, to be refined in tone.

Description

Klavier Gavin is Apollo Justice's rival. He is the younger brother of Justice's mentor, Kristoph Gavin. He is also the lead vocalist and guitarist of his own rock band, the Gavinners.

Unlike Phoenix Wright's usual opponents, Klavier Gavin is quite honest and friendly. He maintains his rock-star mannerisms in the courtroom, and he avoids investigative work, but he takes both of his jobs very seriously. While he is a perfectionist when it comes to his music, he is more concerned about getting the right person convicted when he is in court, which is another major difference from Wright's rivals. As well, Klavier considers his music career a hobby and his law career his real passion.

Klavier is also somewhat like Miles Edgeworth in that he shows respect for the judge, unlike some other prosecutors who frequently abuse the judge verbally or physically, or even do his job for him. He is cool and confident, and he likes to taunt and tease Apollo Justice when the defense attorney falters. He also enjoys traveling and can speak a little Borginian.

Description

Miles Edgeworth began his career as a prosecutor at the young age of 20, and in the four years since has maintained a perfect record of guilty verdicts. Seen as a snob, his condescending nature and relentless prosecution (along with rumors of evidence and witness tampering) have earned him the name "Demon Prosecutor." He despises criminal behavior, and will do anything to get lawbreakers behind bars. And look stylish doing it.

Description

Trucy Wright is a professional stage magician at the Wright Anything Agency who also serves as an investigative partner for the lawyers in the agency.

Similarly to Wright's old assistant Maya Fey, Trucy is bright, energetic and very naïve. However, underneath all this, she is also very perceptive and intelligent, usually being able to piece things together in and out of court even more quickly than Apollo Justice does. She recently became a fan of Klavier Gavin and his band, getting a large "allowance bonus" from her father to buy a great deal of their merchandise.

She often orders "Extra-spicy" curry, just to make sure it is, in fact, spicy. However, the curry turns out to be too spicy for her, and she always wastes it. Despite her cheerful demeanor, Phoenix has said that she is hiding a deep sadness. This is understandable given that, as far as she knows, she has lost both her biological parents.
