Line 9:
*** Some still view the following games as [[Spotlight-Stealing Squad|Phoenix taking away most of the attention from Apollo]], whom is viewed by Apollo fans as the successor to Wright as the series protagonist and titular defense attorney. Wright fans of course simply wanted Wright to return to his position. The developers attempted to compromise and keep the balance by featuring both characters in protagonist roles, in order to please both sides. But ultimately you can't please everybody, evidently.
** It's also possible to [[Take a Third Option]] and enjoy both characters, but dislike the time skip and related case. Considering that the Phoenix arc ended on an [[Earn Your Happy Ending]] moment, ''Apollo Justice'' opens with information that's something of a mood killer, to put it mildly. It's hard to tell whether people hate Apollo himself, the re-characterized Phoenix, or what the ''Apollo Justice'' game itself did to the canon timeline (which goes way beyond [[Fanon Discontinuity]] territory).
* [[Complete Monster]]: {{spoiler|Kristoph Gavin}}. The game itself hints at the fact that he's much more than the series' average [[Smug Snake]] from the very beginning, and it's made perfectly clear when you have a clear look at his crimes at the end: {{spoiler|
** And don't forget the {{spoiler|black Psyche-Locks}} that Phoenix encounters. We never did find out what that was all about until ''Dual Destinies'', but before that game released, the sight of them is both terrifying and indicative of just how blackhearted this man was.
* [[Draco in Leather Pants]]: Valant Gramarye: Ok, [[Memetic Mutation|Zak was a jerk]]; almost definitely more of a jerk than Valant. But that doesn't excuse Valant for deciding to {{spoiler|frame him for murder}}, especially when the main motives were jealousy and money. Try telling that to Valant fans though.
