* [[Giant Poofy Sleeves]]
** [[Sleeves Are for Wimps]]: In Case 4 of Investigations.
* [[Hidden Depths]]: Franziska is a very polarizing character. Being a prosecutor (and a Von Karma at that) she strives for the Guilty verdict at all costs, yet some of her moves work against that; it seems that deep down she does care about finding the truth, and often reaches conclusions before Phoenix does. The reason she withholds it from the court is because she wants to win the trial at all costs, to live up to her reputation as someone who doesn't lose. During ''Justice for All'' she on several occassions appears to be aware that the prosecution's arguments aren't the truth, but she works against the defense regardless because Phoenix is her opponent, ''not'' because she genuinely believes Phoenix's arguments are wrong (yet she's upset when Phoenix makes progress, because she still wants to win). It's not clear whether Franziska is an intelligent yet competitive jerk or someone who's conflicted between living up to her name as a ruthless prosecutor & a servant of the law who pursues the truth. [[Not So Different|Edgeworth has experienced a similar inner struggle]].
* [[Inadequate Inheritor]]: She's always concerned about living up to the von Karma name.
* [[Informed Ability]]: For a supposed prosecuting ace, Franziska sometimes shows some shoddy handling of witnesses and is prone to breaking down worse than her father or Edgeworth ever do. Edgeworth genuinely seems much more competent when he's on the prosecutor's desk.
** Justified because she's actually still very young. She attempts to live up to an ideal that's much greater than herself. Despite striving to be perfect, there's only so much an 18 year old can handle.
* [[It Runs in The Family]]
* [[Licking the Blade|Licking The Whip]]: She did this in her original designs in development. She doesn't do this in the actual game.
