Now Viewing: mitsurugi_reijiTag type: Character A red suit and cravat wearing man from Gyakuten Saiban series. He is called Miles Edgeworth in the English version. He is a serious and intelligent prosecutor who functions as Ryuuichi's rival. He was Ryuuichi's childhood friend, but he changed significantly as a person after his father tragically died while trapped in an elevator after an earthquake. This event deeply traumatized Reiji and he was taken in by his father's rival Karuma Go who became his mentor. When Reiji meets with Ryuuichi after many years, he is initially rather cold to him but as Ryuuichi helps him deal with his personal issues and helps resolve his case, Reiji warms up to Ryuuichi and forms an odd friendship with him. Although he appears unfriendly, he is dedicated to the pursuit of the truth even when it comes at the expense of his own case and avoids lies and flattery. Unlike Ryuuichi he is greatly respected by many people, but the goofier characters in the series seem to like messing with him. His good looks have earned the attention of several females, but he seems oblivious to their feelings except for those of Ohba Kaoru's which deeply disturbs him. He is also a closet and very dedicated fan of the Steel Samurai show. Although he was not a main character in the first three games and his screen time was reduced in the sequels, he became an extremely popular character. Popular enough to have a spinoff series titled Gyakuten Kenji starring him. In the Gyakuten Kenji series, he works closely with Itonokogiri Keisuke and Ichijo Mikumo to solve various cases and forms close relationship with both of them. He makes a cameo in Marvel vs Capcom 3. He is voiced by Iwamoto Tatsuro (video games), and Takemoto Eiji (commercials). He is played by Saito Takumi in the live action film and by Yumi Hiro in the musical.
