Ok, starting off this post saying that if you don’t ship Phoenix and Edgeworth, that’s absolutely fine. I really don’t care. People can ship or not ship whatever they want as long as it’s not illegal.
That said, the amount of times I’ve seen people try and claim that narumitsu is in some way problematic or toxic because Edgeworth tried to prosecute Phoenix for Mia’s death in the first game is actually insane.
For starters, essentially all I’m hearing when people say shit like that is “how dare Edgeworth do his job as a prosecutor and not make an exception for Phoenix”. Edgeworth was the prosecutor assigned to Mia’s case. It’s not exactly his fault that Phoenix got swapped out as the defendant. And what was he gonna do? Drop the case all because some guy he hasn’t spoken to in literal years is now the suspect?
Secondly, this was the first case we see Edgeworth who at this point is acting as Phoenix’s rival and the antagonist. And y’all are mad because he acts like an antagonist? He starts out as a shitty person, that’s the point! That’s why he goes through his redemption arc and why his relationship with Phoenix develops as a result, platonically or otherwise.
Lastly, I just wanna point out this moment
Edgeworth literally goes out of his way to warn Phoenix that the Judge might not be as impartial in this trial than he should be because of Whites connections and blackmail. As much as Edgeworth claims that he wasn’t going to show Phoenix any special treatment, this clearly shows that he wanted Phoenix to be prepared for this trial so he would be ready to defend himself as well as he could and not be wrongfully punished
As I said, I really don’t care if someone doesn’t ship narumitsu. But can we please not pretend it’s toxic because of trial two?

“Did I say I wanted you to touch me? Maybe Vincent and Charles have a dead bedroom. Who wants to kiss a face like yours, anyway?” Patently false, considering Alex has wanted to do it forever. But he shelves that thought for a different day.
Henry raises an eyebrow as he smooths down the lines of his suit. “Hm. You think you'll get to kiss me with a smart mouth like that?”
“Okay, Foxy. Don’t expect my tongue anywhere near yours tonight if things get sticky.”
Henry smiles, soft and secretive. “Sure, Alex. No tongues, if you insist.”
