#and im not gonna pretend aa is morally coherent

[sevenhundred721]

Miles Edgeworth as a character is interesting because (in universe) he doesn't do anything illegal (until he pretends to be a defense attorney in Trials and Tribulations). He is an example of what happens in an unethical legal system. The kind of person who has an advantage and still plays hardball at the expense of innocents. To call him a criminal or to try to put him under a microscope to show the real-world laws he's breaking makes no sense. Because his character is the law. AA1 Edgeworth is clearly a commentary about how the law is neither moral nor kind. He is a bad person in the first game. He is also a law abiding citizen. I might have just made it blatantly obvious that I haven't played Investigations yet, idk.
