I'm Gonna Give You A Hard Time Like I Promised, OK?

More Persona 5! I've just stolen what I'm pretty sure must be the final Treasure.


Ann: How've you been?
Rei: I mean, I died...

SOJIRO HEARD THE DEATH ANNOUNCEMENT AND DIDN'T KNOW IT WASN'T REAL

Great plan, Rei. Just keep your hood up and there's no way anyone will recognise you. You're just some other teenager who keeps a cat in his backpack.

I love the detail of the worried text messages from confidants who worked out who we are but weren't in on the plan. Definitely scope for fic about the moment each of them heard the news, although unfortunately that would mean I'd have to write Mishima.

Now that I know Akechi's voice actor, it's really hard not to hear him as Evil Prompto. (Thank you for the information, timydamonkey! I finally responded to your comment on my last post, by the way; sorry for the delay.)

'Hey, Rei. Once we change Shido's heart... No, never mind. Forget it.' This is an aborted love confession from Ryuji, right?

I really like Akechi wishing he and I could have met a few years earlier. By the time we crossed paths, it was too late; we were doomed to be enemies.

'I was extremely particular about my life, my grades, my public image, so someone would want me around!' is an extremely tragic line.

I still can't work out whether I actually like Akechi, but I can't deny he's interesting.

guys are you seriously just having the revelation that Akechi's behind the mental shutdowns

Akechi, it's very disconcerting that you're having a shrieking breakdown reminiscent of Light in the final Death Note episode while also looking like Light.

'I don't need... teammates... I don't...' - okay, I'm definitely warming up to how bitterly, furiously lonely Akechi is.

I just want to give a quick shoutout to Girimehkala for being the best goddamn Persona a person could ask for. It reflects physical damage, it's immune to Curse, and after a stint in lockdown it's also immune to Bless, meaning it protects Joker completely from instakill skills.

My teammates complimenting Akechi! We could have been friends!!

And Ann outright reaches out to him, bless her.

Anyway, real Akechi and cognitive Akechi need to have horrible makeouts.

I sent the calling card, and then I saw all the people who'd worked out I was a Phantom Thief coming out in support of me, and I immediately reloaded my save to do a bit more confidant boosting before sending the card because, goddammit, I want Iwai there. It's entirely possible this decision will leave me unable to max out everyone else before the end of the game, but I WANT IWAI THERE.

I did all that just to get one line from Iwai, but, honestly, I'm just glad he's there.

Okay, I've heard things that make me pretty sure Ryuji didn't just die in an explosion, but Ryuji had better fucking not have just died in an explosion.

Did you guys just... beat Ryuji unconscious for the sin of almost dying while risking himself to save all of your lives?

I can't believe I'm a hundred and twenty-eight hours into this game. I can't believe I only paid ten pounds for this much content. This game does feel too long, but it only feels slightly too long, which is impressive, given its actual length.

persona, persona 5
