WhileAce Attorneyis known for its thrilling mysteries and over-the-top courtroom battles, the endearing cast makes itone of the best mystery video games. Capcom went all out when creating characters for these visual novels, including a parrot that takes the witness stand and a prosecutor who actively throws wine bottles at people during court.

12Aries - Phoenix Wright
March 21 – April 19
No mountain is too high for an Aries, and the same is true for Phoenix Wright. Known for taking on the toughest trials, cracking the most stubborn Pysche-Locks, and believing in his client’s innocence to the bitter end, he embodies the determination that makes this sign famous.
Like Aries, Phoenix confronts challenges with unwavering optimism. Believing that the worst of times is when lawyers must force their biggest smiles, he refuses to give up even in the most hopeless scenarios. You can always count on him to raise endless objections until he gets a not-guilty verdict.
11Taurus - Mia Fey
April 20 – May 20
You thought Taurus was stubborn? Mia Fey is so headstrong that not even death stops her from indicting killers and helping her friends. Tauruses are very dependable, and Mia is Phoenix’s most loyal ally. Even after being murdered, she frequently returns from the grave to stand by his side in court.
When a Taurus has their mind set on a goal, you can bet they will accomplish it in a practical and grounded way. Some key examples are Mia’s down-to-earth approach to catching the serial killer Dahlia Hawthorne and the wise guidance she gives Phoenix.
10Gemini - Athena Cykes
May 21 – June 20
Geminis can undoubtedly relate to the extroverted and multitalented Athena Cykes. Her boundless curiosity makes her eager to try new things and juggle various passions. She’s not just a defense attorney; she’s also a psychologist, athlete, polyglot, and more.
Geminis are known for being outgoing and expressive, much like Athena. She can strike up a conversation with just about anyone, whether they’re an introverted defendant or a larger-than-life witness. She’s also not afraid to show her emotions, as demonstrated by her necklace, Widget, which displays her mood.
9Cancer - Vera Misham
June 21 – July 22
As one of the mostunderrated Ace Attorney characters, Vera Misham takes a while to come out of her shell. However, just like Cancers, she becomes more talkative and open about her feelings once you get to know her. Beneath her protective wall, Vera is a deeply compassionate person who loves her friends and family more than anything else.
Cancers tend to have a safe space where they spend a lot of time. For Vera, it is her art studio. You will rarely see her anywhere else, and she’s okay with that because her artistic side thrives best in a familiar, comforting environment.
8Leo - Luke Atmey
July 23 – August 22
The self-proclaimed “ace detective,” Luke Atmey, revels in the spotlight. Leos have a natural flair for theatrics and a love of attention, which perfectly summarizes this master thief’s personality. He basks in his celebrity status as the arch-rival to Mask DeMasque and never fails to exclaim “Zvarri!” when he makes a deduction.
While Leos may not relate to his side hustle of stealing priceless art, his immense courage and ambition go hand-in-hand with the sign’s traits. He has the bravery to organize the riskiest heists and won’t accept failure as an option.
7Virgo - Miles Edgeworth
August 23 – September 22
Genius prosecutor Miles Edgeworth is a prime example of a Virgo. Thanks to his methodical approach to investigating, he handles each case with logic and a bit of perfectionism. With his sharp attention to detail, not even the tiniest clue or contradiction can escape his eyes.
Virgos thrive with organization, and Edgeworth is no exception, since he constantly ensures his notes and office are tidy. All of these traits combine to make him an exceptional problem-solver. More importantly, however, he’s a loyal and reliable friend.
6Libra - Will Powers
September 23 – October 22
Similar to Libras, Will Powers always puts others before himself. Don’t let his scary appearance fool you; Will is a gentle soul who wants nothing but to make everyone happy. He often goes out of his way to accommodate people, even going as far as hiding his face in public to avoid frightening children.
Libras also have a knack for the arts, like Will’s passion for acting, most notably as the superhero Steel Samurai. Despite being a celebrity, he stays away from drama and strives to create peace and harmony, even when accused of murder.
5Scorpio - Godot
October 23 – November 21
The enigmatic Godot perfectly symbolizes the mysterious and cunning nature of the Scorpio sign. Thanks to his iconic mask, no one knows who he is or what he looks like. On top of that, Godot sees the entire chessboard during courtroom battles and always stays six steps ahead of Phoenix.
It is common for Scorpios to feel intense passion, which proves a blessing and curse for Godot. While it results in his powerful love and playful bond with Mia Fey, it also leads to his seething hatred for Phoenix Wright.
4Sagittarius - Herlock Sholmes
November 22 – December 21
Those of the Sagittarius sign are born adventurers with a hunger for knowledge and exploration, and no Ace Attorney character personifies that better than Herlock Sholmes. As the greatest detective in the world, he travels the globe in search of the most baffling mysteries and thrilling journeys.
Like Sagittarius, Sholmes frequently switches between his many passions, including crime-solving, chemistry, inventing, violin, and boxing. Not to mention, he’s one heck of a dancer. It’s no wonder why he’sthe best character from the Great Ace Attorney games.
3Capricorn - Franziska Von Karma
December 22 – January 19
Capricorns can often be mistaken as emotionally distant when, in actuality, they’re just intensely focused on a goal. Franziska von Karma fits that description to a tee. She has big shoes to fill, given that her father and adopted brother are the two best prosecutors in the world. She wants to prove herself and won’t let anything stop her.
However, Franziska is far from unemotional and will express herself when her walls are down. But most of the time, she has her eyes on the prize and will work hard to achieve it.
