Line 103:
** Phoenix's behavior in Case 1 gains a whole new dimension when it turns out that {{spoiler|the woman he dated for six months and the one that tried to kill him are not the same, and that his insistence on her innocence wasn't a result of him grabbing the [[Idiot Ball]]}}. Perhaps it also counts as a bit of foreshadowing...
** Mia's random comedic assaults on Grossberg in Case 1 every time Phoenix says something adoring about Dahlia become much less funny when you realize that it's not just low tolerance for sappy, saccharine gushing — it's because she's bottling up a lot of ''hate'' for Dahlia and with very good reason. There's also the possibility that it's related to the fact that she ''knows'' Grossberg is responsible for leaking the information on her mother, and her mother's resulting disappearance.
* [[Harsher in Hindsight]]: Phoenix's comment in 3-Case 3 that {{spoiler|the only way to win a phony case is with phony evidence}} becomes a ''lot'' harsher after the events of ''Apollo Justice'', where he {{spoiler|loses his badge due to evidence forgery.}}.
* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: 3-Case 5 has one when you examine the incinerator. "A fight between a lawyer and [[Galactus|an overgrown boiler?]] [[Marvel vs. Capcom 3|Who'd want to see that?"]]
* [[Jerkass Woobie]]:
** Dahlia in Iris's perspective, although most likely not the player's. Both sisters were separated from their mother and received no love from their father, and while Iris had a mother figure in Sister Bikini. Dahlia had no one. Iris realizes Dahlia has done many unforgivable things, but still cares for her and wants to help her because of what she's been through (including recovering the necklace so she won't commit any more crimes).
** {{spoiler|Godot could be considered as one, but only to Phoenix, whom he refused to acknowledge for the greater part of the game. He seems to be pretty nice to everyone else.}}.
* [[Magnificent Bastard]]: While not being a [[Big Bad]], {{spoiler|Luke Atmey}} from the third game certainly counts. {{spoiler|He uses a guilty verdict as his alibi for a murder, and this same verdict makes him look like a genius thief smarter than everyone, while giving him what he wants the most from others, their attention}}.
* [[Squick]]:
** STOP TALKING ABOUT HEMORRHOIDS! Even worse in this case because 3-Case 1's culprit is the first one in the series that poses a challenge to the player right in the first case so there's a huge chance of hearing Grossberg talking about it again and again after said culprit's cross-examination.
** There's only one reason! One as obvious as Jean Armstrong in a thong on the Riviera!
* [[Values Dissonance]]: 3-Case 4 gives us a 20 year old man in a relationship with a 14 year old girl (quite a heated one too) - the mention of the age gap is [[Played for Laughs]]. However, while the reactions of Mia and Diego are played for laughs, the relationship itself is portrayed as unhealthy, although less because of the age than because {{spoiler|Dahlia was very obviously using the mentally disabled Terry}}.
** Only the reactions of Mia and Diego are played for laughs. The relationship itself is portrayed as unhealthy, although less because of the age than because {{spoiler|Dahlia was very obviously using the mentally disabled Terry.}}
* [[Viewer Gender Confusion]]: Ron DeLite. Some people mistake him for a woman thanks to his feminine appearance and passive personality.
