This was years ago, back in 2007 I think. I want to say it was Spiral RPG but the archives don't go back nearly as far as I recall. Anyway, whatever the game was, they had a small Phoenix Wright cast consisting of Matt Engarde, Ema Skye, and Phoenix and Edgeworth. And, for some reason or a-fucking-other, they decided the best way to show that Matt was a bad, evil guy was to have him rape Ema. Now, that wasn't the worst part, as awful and melodramatic as that plot was. No, the worst part was that Rapist!Matt kept popping up when you'd least expect it. Like, when someone new came into the city? Another character, completely outside of the cast, went, "WATCH OUT, MATT ENGARDE IS HERE AND HE MIGHT RAPE YOU." It was seriously the dumbest thing, and not only that, this game was my first taste of LJRP and one of the reasons I have a hate-on for rape plots to this day.
