Popular Phoenix Wright Ships

Phoenix Wright/Miles Edgeworth

12k works

Phoenix became a defense attorney specifically to reach Miles Edgeworth, the childhood friend who defended him in a class trial and then disappeared into Manfred von Karma's shadow. The series canonizes their devotion at every turn — Phoenix dismantling Edgeworth's perfect-win record to save his soul, Edgeworth flying across the world whenever Phoenix is in trouble. It is the courtroom drama AO3 never stopped litigating.
