I mean, to be fair to Narumitsu, I can kind of see why people would ship it. Edgeworth played a big part in Phoenix's life, and the latter became a defense attorney to "save" him. If you don't look too much into it, Narumitsu can make sense on the surface. But most of the other things people use as evidence, like Edgeworth calling Phoenix "partner" makes 0 sense. He calls Franziska, Gumshoe, and Kay that as well. He calls whomever he's working with "partner".
But yeah, a lot of Narumitsu (and Klapollo, to a lesser extent) shippers like shoving it in everyone's faces and that either makes people love it or hate it.
