59. Godot (Ace Attorney)
Nominated by NFUN
Blacker than a moonless night, hotter and more bitter than hell itself... that is coffee.


Godot is the principal prosecutor/antagonist in the third Ace Attorney game. He bears a grudge against Phoenix Wright and has an obsession with coffee. I was never super in love with this character. He always struck me as a bit of a tryhard not the character himself in canon, but rather how hes treated, like hes some hotshot expert. But Godot came off to me as inexperienced, making little blunders and losing control of the cases in a way Edgeworth or even Franziska wouldnt. That would have been fine, given that he was originally a defense attorney, not a prosecutor, and he also had little actual interest in prosecuting at times, but I dont think the game actually wanted me to think that.

Godot as a character was redeemed for me by the last case in the game, which perfectly brings the original trilogy to a close and ties everything up neatly. Godots motivations are laid bare, as is the extent of his singleminded revenge. It was neat.

Also uh can we never call women kittens please and thank you
