Propaganda:

Spoilers for anyone interested in playing Persona 5 Strikers for themselves: Zenkichi has a daughter the same age as Ellie in the first game and in the TV show. Not to mention, even when instructed not to grow attached to the Phantom Thieves, he grows attached to them anyway and sees their perspective. So, at the very least, Zenkichi will grow attached to Ellie.

I think he could also be able to escort her to the hospital as he has his police training and ability to wield dual pistols to go off on even without his Persona. If he is allowed to use his Persona, he'd stand a better chance as he has a good mix of offensive and defensive skills as well as knowledge on how to use a longsword.

How would they have handled the Firefly hospital shootout:

I do in all honesty think that Zenkichi would do the same thing Joel did canonically, even when considering his background as a police investigator. Even before teaming up with the Phantom Thieves, Zenkichi would do anything to protect his daughter, including morally questionable behavior such as allowing his wife's killer to roam free or making a shady deal that could have resulted in Joker's arrest if broken. If he also saw Ellie as a daughter-like figure, which he would, then it's all over for the Fireflies.

Maaaan I can't stop thinking about how Zenkichi admitted that he was envious of the Thieves at first as it puts so many of his pre-character development moments into perspective upon replay.

On one hand: Bruh you were overcompensating with that cocky attitude

But on the other hand: He resented and was jealous of them not just b/c they were able do more than what he himself could ever feel brave enough to do (especially w/ Owada) but also Akane admired and looked up to them so they ended up reminding him of every one of his failures including being a role model for his own daughter, therefore he ended up projecting that attitude onto them at first. In this essay I will-

Headcanoning Persona 5 characters Mariokart mains, because I'm funny and I have way too much time to think about dumb things

Ren mains Shy Guy, usually green because he loves Kakyoin from JJBA. Mute City F-Zero is also his favorite Mariokart 8 track because of this.

Ryuji once said "I bet Ann plays Princess Peach", and Ann was so offended by the assumption that every time she intentionally takes Bowser before Ryuji can, so he has to pick his second favorite (Donkey Kong) instead. She doesn't even dislike Peach necessarily, she just never played Peach and was feeling petty.

Now, technically Ryuji could always just pick Dry Bowser- but unfortunately for him, Makoto always picks Dry Bowser, so he has no choice but to pick Bowser Jr, and he would rather just keep Donkey Kong.

Akechi doesn't really play Mariokart unless he's roped in by the group, so he never really had a main. The others kept throwing out suggestions for him to pick, and he kept shooting them down for various contrived reasons, only giving in because Futaba was the loudest and most obnoxious one shouting "Pick Yoshi". That's the day he became the Yoshi main.

Yusuke mains King Boo, and was extremely baffled and confused when Futaba blurted out "only sluts play King Boo" (Ann couldn't help but laugh at that).

Futaba would only play either Luigi or Waluigi, depending on her mood. Either way, she's a memelord about it.

Haru would be Daisy, because she's iconic and also they're very similar. Makoto pointed it out and Haru has picked Daisy every time ever since.

Morgana always picks Mario, but not just any Mario. Specifically Tanooki Mario. Everyone gave him a look, but he acted like this was perfectly normal behavior. If anyone brings up the resemblance, he will get extremely defensive.

Sumire almost exclusively played Rosalina, until one day she decided to pick Toadette out of nowhere. The group was kind of surprised, and she explained that she thinks it's cute, and never went back.

Zenkichi keeps refusing to play, and only gives in because Sumire is a sweetheart who suggests that he match her and pick Toad. He does, and it's funny as hell.

And finally, Sophia would pick Princess Peach, specifically Cat Peach with the pink car because it matches the colors. Before that she was just going to make a Mii of herself reluctantly, but Ann showed her Cat Peach and her eyes just lit up.

Basically:

Ren: Green Shy Guy

Ryuji: Bowser Donkey Kong

Ann: Bowser

Makoto: Dry Bowser

Akechi: Yoshi

Yusuke: King Boo

Futaba: (Wa)Luigi

Haru: Daisy

Morgana: Tanooki Mario

Sumire: Rosalina Toadette

Zenkichi: Toad

Sophia: Cat Peach
