Kristoph Gavin, localized as Galvão in Portuguese, is a defense attorney and Apollo Justice's mentor in Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney, Capcom's courtroom adventure first released for Nintendo DS in 2007. In the games, attorneys shout objections to challenge testimony, accompanied by a pointed pose and a large speech bubble. Protesto is the Portuguese form of that shout. Clips of the line circulate on soundboards and in fan edits, where the formal courtroom delivery makes everyday disagreements sound like dramatic legal battles, keeping the phrase popular with Ace Attorney fans online.
