Now, I get it. Anybody who was a fan of the games will find problems in the anime series, but can't you see? It's not the game. It's a TV show and its pretty damn accurate to the games, with a few differences, of course. It is simpler than the games. However, I love this show. Especially the Final Trial of Season 1.

I've stopped watching after two episodes because how they present the cases in the anime is so blatantly over-the-top that even JoJo's Bizarre adventure looks realistic in comparison.

While I understand it's an Anime and is supposed to exaggerate emotions, I was hoping for a more witful anime with thought-out twists that make you question motives and what must've really happened.

However, what I saw is a comedy show where characters give away their guilt by simply looking at each other without any deeper ulterior motives or any depth to them whatsoever.

Might be a suitable anime for ages 13 - 16.

If you're looking for a mind-bending anime such as Death Note or Steins;Gate, look elsewhere; this anime isn't to make you think and question anything.

It is very simple. If you liked the games, you will like this series. Some fatigue can set if if you still remember everything that happened, because the story is based on the games, pretty much 1:1.

But if you like that "objection!" moment, you will also enjoy this series.

The only problem I have with this series in generals (games included), is that most of the important clues are pulled out of nowhere or during the trial, which means that it's impossible for viewers to speculate or make any predictions.

However the series is very enjoyable and newcomer friendly.

As a person who is a big fan of Ace Attorney, I been loving how the story plays out exactly like the game. Even if you are someone who hasn't played the Ace Attorney games it's definitely worth watching to those who wanna get into Ace Attorney!

This isn't a straight 1:1 adaptation, as it adds more info and cuts out certain characters. (Such as the bellboy from the second case. I hated him, so meh.) Deducted points because the way they animated von Karma's face was Gollumesque.
