Multiple choice questions during a revisualization sequence in Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Spirit of Justice .
I'm going to revisualize the case from start to finish!
Revisualization [1] is a recurring sequence used in Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Dual Destinies and Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Spirit of Justice . It occurs at a critical point in a trial , usually within the last few moments, when the protagonist is backed into a corner and has to review their thinking to reach a decisive conclusion that usually turns the case on its head. Thematically, it is similar to the logic epiphanies in Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth and Ace Attorney Investigations 2: Prosecutor's Gambit . Mechanically, it is essentially a series of multiple choice questions about items and evidence connected to the case. There are unique responses to every available answer, including the incorrect ones, with no penalty being incurred for choosing incorrectly.
More often than not it involves re-examining pieces of evidence from much earlier in the case that don't line up with how the case has changed, provoking the realisation of a huge logical inconsistency with the whole case. On more than one occasion , revisualisation has helped the protagonists out of a situation that would make indicting the true criminal impossible due to extraneous circumstances.
Revisualisation is never featured in a game's first case.

Notes [ ]
In the games that feature revisualization, The Cosmic Turnabout is the only non-introductory episode to lack a revisualization sequence, and Turnabout Revolution is the only episode to have two revisualization sequences.
However, this actually meets the criteria when measured by the number of cases, because the former is not a complete case, while the latter contains two independent cases.
Turnabout for Tomorrow is the only case in which a revisualization sequence does not occur near the end of a trial. Instead, it is performed to break Athena Cykes 's black Psyche-Locks .
The Rite of Turnabout contains the longest revisualization sequence in the series, consisting of six consecutive choices.
In the Dual Destinies Launch Trailer the end of the Revisualization sequence from The Monstrous Turnabout is depicted for a brief moment. However, the question that the player is answering is "why didn't the killer arrange the alderman so he was laying on his stomach", and the concluding statement is "The killer didn't know the lullaby". This was likely changed on purpose to avoid spoilers.
The Spirit of Justice Launch Trailer also depicts the Revisualization sequence from The Magical Turnabout , and the question is "What's the trick behind the trick coin", with the answer being "The two sides were identical".
