The Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney meme originates from the popular Capcom visual novel series first released in 2001. It primarily features the protagonist, Phoenix Wright, aggressively pointing while shouting his signature catchphrase, 'Objection!' The meme gained massive traction on forums like NeoGAF and Reddit as a way to refute false information or point out contradictions in a humorous, high-stakes manner. Over time, the format evolved into elaborate fan-made videos and edited courtroom scenes, becoming a staple of internet culture for anyone wanting to deliver a dramatic logical smackdown.
