How do the rest of the Phantom Thieves follow Joker in game anyway when he uses the grappling hook? Do they have their own? Are they just really good at jumping?

Be sure to follow for more Persona 5 Comics every Friday!

there was at least one halloween where akira asked (begged) ryuji and ann to dress up as the golden trio with him

👑 IT'S MAD OUT HERE, ARE YOU CRAZY ENOUGH?

[moniericreative]

It's honestly both interesting and sad how easily dissapointed Morgana is by Shujin's student body...

Game Spoilers Ahead ~

Especially when you remember he's the literal incarnation of humanity's last traces of hope too.

All of these are just from 4/18 alone (The first day you can actually wander around the school fully with him), and by exploring Shujin you can really feel the public apathy the main story talks about way later on...

And that's not even factoring the absolute heinous shit the students talk about either, especially towards Joker, Ann, and Shiho (they're surprisingly tame with Ryuji in comparison, and even then he still gets a lot of flack...).

These kids really just do not care about anything at the game's start, and just doing this dialogue project and seeing all of this, I already feel infuriated on the Shujin Trio's (plus Shiho and Mishima) behalfs...

The bar is low enough to be in hell and somehow these kids are still managing to limbo under it.

This being Morgana's introduction to humanity in a general sense and not just with the Phantom Thieves is depressing to watch...

...

Also holy shit Shujin has a turtle? AND WHY DOESN'T IT HAVE ANY FOOD?!

*DROPS S/I ON THE GROUND*

*RUNS AWAY IN SHAME*

S/I Yap time!!

OK SO-- I made this little S/I art yesterday and felt like sharing!! My Persona 5 S/I is basically-- well, me (bubbly and annoying) and nothing else lolol I literally insert myself in the universe with some plot changes and it's fun!! She likes space and music! Cuz i do too! :D She's also an indie musical artist but it's like more of a hobbie than anything! (Even if it does helps with money and all! she also does haves some good amount of followers on the niche! But nothing big out of the indie bubble) She wants to work as a songwriter for a famous singer one day!

Her background is nothing crazy but I made some silly changes, like aging up my irl brother (he's currently a lil baby and I made him a lil kid :3) and making me live with my grandma! (fucking love my grandma kisses grandma!!) Also some dramatic aah stuff like dead mom and no dad for me (the basics) 😭😭 My S/I has a strong special interest in space!!! Which is something I'm getting really into lately! So I made mommy an astronomer! She was like best friends with Wakaba (scientific nerds lol) and Sojiro so S/I was very close to Futaba since childhood for that reason!

She is a phantom thieve (shockerz) and uhm I wanted to use my personal experience as a bullied child growing up (mostly because of ableism) and turn that into motivation to make justice, since no one did that for me before!! (Grr goddamn adults!) And finding my own group of weird little people made me much more open and generally happy in real life! So that's what I'm doing on this universe as well! ^^

Yes she entered in kamoshida's case cuz I wanna imagine myself in every little story event.

Yes I study at Shujin.

Yes I am basic. /j

Even tho when it's for self shipping purposes I usually make my stuff in the 3rd semester because... life is beautiful and husby has no filter so it's funnier ✨️ AND YES I AM HELPING THE ROYAL TRIO WITH MARUKI FUCK IT NOW WE ARE FOUR!! (Depression afterwards :<)

Her Persona is called Selene! Based off the greek goddess of the moon!! She has nuclear/almighty based skills simply because it's chaotic and looks cool!! FUCKING MEGIDOLAON ON THEM!!! POOOWWW BOOM KABOOM!! 💥👊ALSO FUN FACT SHE'S VERY CHAOTIC!! (just like me fr maybe because it is me duh) often being too dramatic, explosive and loud!!! totally ruining stealth when it comes to infiltrating palaces, which usually makes some funny aah scenes because she was dumb-- maybe she's not a good phantom thief...

maybe.

Talking about metaverse stuff! Her clothes are based off Magicians! Because of her lil show off nature, making everything a explosive dramatic spectacle! And uhm magicians are cool!! -v-"

This concept was made with the help of my bestie! Helping me take a more Kaito kid/Tuxedo Mask inspired design, which i really like allot! big thanks to him!! <3

Relationship dynamics:

On this section I wanted to give a small little insights on her relationships with most characters! Since I felt like it would be fun to do so! :3

☆~☆~☆

Akira Kurusu/Ren Amamiya

- Her relationship with Akira is pretty much like a siblings relationship, Luna looks up to him allot and is the "I wanna be like you when I grow up" type lol even if they are the same age. He is her inspiration to get better, so she will get at his level one day! He also makes extra suggary cappuccino to her when she goes to Leblanc 🤝 ☕️

Ryuji Sakamoto

- Her relationship with him is pretty much the chaotic duo type, shes always giving him death stares when he starts to talk about girls or some dumb Ryuji shit like that 😭 Her and Morgana are constantly slandering him for the funzys, but Ryuji also likes to pick up on her so they're eternally on a war-- and in general they are two loud dumbasses who share the same braincells and have little silly banters 🤲 also HC that Luna helps him dye his hair 🫡

Ann Takamaki

- Her relationship with Ann is the girly besties type, constantly going out shopping, Ann usually helps her to buy her clothes since Luna definitely can't pick her clothes on her own without it looking weird 😭 they also go out allot to eat! Try the newest deserts all around Tokyo! Those two would probably kill for a chocolate cake. And they are getting progressively more poor because of that... She likes to paint Ann's nails and style her hair for fun! because she personally thinks Ann looks like a pretty porcelain doll!

Yusuke Kitagawa

- Her relationship with Yusuke is another of pure admiration!! Yusuke admire Luna for her artistic side on the music and Luna's eyes sparkle at every little sketch he does, I like to think that Luna (just like me) is an artist for fun who really has allot of trouble with drawing certain things that aren't fanart lol, and they go out on little panting sessions togheter. Like I dunno go to Inokashira Park to draw the scenario and his comes out like the next monalisa and hers is like... Blue and Green all mixed up togheter. And she probably got her clothes dirty in the process. He does encourages her to continue tho! And gives her tips that she usually doesn't get-- so uhm sensei Yusuke Ig?

Makoto Nijima

- Her relationship with Makoto is... *sighs* very sibling-like too. Luna isn't the best at school, and always cry for help when it's exams week 💔 Makoto usually scolds her for being too careless at everything, school, metaverse, crossing the road-- but only because she really cares about her. Luna is like the little sister she needs to lookout for so she doesn't get herself killed by accident. Oh fun fact but Luna is also very afraid of Sae (just like me im afraid of pretty woman) so yeah she freezes when she steps in the room 😭

Futaba Sakura

- Oh boooyyy Futaba time!! My relationship with Futaba is so silly and fun and I wanna yap about it!! Ok third person mode on--

So, since they were basically raised togheter, they are pretty close to one another, and have gathered the same types of interests through the years. Since I have the Autistic Futaba HC, I like to imagine that they get each other more than anything, engaging in parallel play most of the time when she was a shut-in. And I like to imagine that Luna was pretty much the only person she talked to at first after her Palace. Also HC that they play Pokemon United togheter. Cuz I said so. They exchange allot of gifts related to their special interests too! Ugh I have so many HC's for us but basically we are best friends forever two little chaotic autistic sillys but i help Futaba with her social anxiety! yipeee :3

Haru Okumura

- Her relationship with Haru is the tea time besties, they talk all day over a good cup of tea and Haru frequently gives her tips of how not make her plants die (very important, I never can make them live...) which is a hobby Luna really is trying to... make possible... (plz don't die this time) and generally her time yapping with Haru is a very comforting one, usually when shes feeling dramatic she goes and hugs Haru and makes her little drama, and Haru is usually the only one who's like "Oh dear :(" and stands her when she's being extra or cheers her up when shes actually sad too! 😭 shes such a sweetheart! <3 don't be mean with Mona and Luna! Haru is gonna politely ask you to stop. (Looking at you ryuji)

Morgana

- Her relationship with our favorite not cat! He's... Morgana. We know him. But Luna can be considered pretty much his #1 fan???? She thinks he's HELLA COOL like the best phantom thieve ever!! (I love morgana!!!) She really respects him and Morgana is really grateful to have someone that looks up to him (Luna looks up to lots of people! ><") Luna also likes to pat him. Allot. (IM A CAT PERSON OK) which well he doesn't mind but still he's not a kitty that you can just pat like that!!! (He's purring)

Sumire Yoshizawa

- Her relationship with Sumire is... damn, Luna is LOUD. And well we know that Sumi isn't exactly as extroverted as she makes herself seem when she takes on the Kasumi role. So uhm let's say Luna is overwhelming-- very overwhelming! 😭 She's always jumpy and bubbly and is constantly trying to cheer Sumire up, turning into some type of cheerleader for her when she starts to self-depreciate in any way, being overly affectionate and in general being extra EXTRA around her since she gets very worried about Sumire's mental health-- So yeah, Luna is basically constantly cheering her on and admiring her for being able to make things she can't (Even if Sumire doesn't think they're that great :< )... ooh we have another extreme admiration case here!!! Maybe the person she admires the most! Hell yeah! Give my girly some love!~ My bestie <3

Haha that's the end nothing more to see here... hah... haha.... bye...

Ok...

*sighs*

Goro Akechi

- That's probably the most important relationship of all-- why did I put him in last? I'm embarrassed. Uh... shy? 😭 gonna be more personal about this one uhm-- well

That's my boyfriend over there, I hate him I don't really enjoy his company and I hope he gets therapy. /hj

No, really tho, our relationship is... I can't even describe it, but our dynamic is DEFINITELY the "aww they do care about each other" type-- I constantly enjoy to annoy the hell out of him, just because it's funny?? I'm the devil from the bible. Er... so... the thing is, Akechi constantly get dismissed through story for obvious reasons, he's openly agaisn't the Phantom Thieves and later they do have much MUCH more motives to not fuck with him-- but Luna? DAMN. That girl is I N V E S T E D In being friends with him. Specially on the start, his sob stories actually made her pity him and get all "aw he's miserable... 🥺" lol so she constantly insisted on being his friend, even tho he was internally screaming and trying to push her away, she was CONVICTED. SHES A FRIENDSHIP MACHINE BABY. YOU CAN'T ESCAPE HER!!

So with that forced proximity, they eventually started getting closer, and it was something very... slow? Definitely. Luna never cared about hiding herself no matter how weird people seemed to find her, maybe he would admire that... envy that? Who knows.

Suddenly he started to enjoy her company. Even if she was... oh well a little dumb, yeah, he definitely thinks she is-- He never had people who were close to him, and definitely didn't had someone THAT determined to bother him 24/7. Maaaybe he could call her something close to a friend... right? (Yes they were she stated that every 3 seconds and Luna rules 🫡) And that was before he "entered" to the Phantom Thieves, and when he did? Damn she was kinda happy! Don't talk about the blackmail part showing off to him and telling him all the cool things she could do as she ""teached"" him about the metaverse (lol like this bitch needed to) and they got even closer!! Damn! Let's go play darts togheter and silly around! Yay! :D

I also like to HC that he would eventually let some good amount of things about his real self slip, and Luna would be like totally clueless and okay about it, when most people would think it was weird or out of character. Maybe that's why he got so weirdly comfortable around her? She didn't gave a fuck-- and oh well he wasn't THAT detective princefied around her by that time. Yeah she's probably the closest he got to it... (sweeps Akira under the rug)

And uh... let's skip allot of things so I won't yap about the whole Akechi arc here. Maybe another day.

But Luna was utterly miserable after everything (yall know what), she wasn't angry... just... shocked. Maybe a bit quieter? Less energetic? She was since the revelation, but it was worse now... and the penny dropped at the worst time-- And uh yeah sad above everything I think that's pretty much expected when you lose someone you really like. Despite everything, he was a friend... someone she cared about... maybe more than she should...

Wait.

Cared about, huh? OH FUCK SHE WAS IN LOVE WITH HIM!!! (Shockerz) GASP WOW WOAH! *VINE BOOM* Who would've guessed. So uhm yeah that sucks, now it's too late...

A little more timeskip--

Oh well damn hi Goro!! What the fuck??? :D

That's where most of the romantic relationship aspects take part, damn he was there now???? It was literally her chance!! To what? Nothing really-- just spend more time to him and get more clingy (like she wasn't enough before) and even MORE bubbly than before!! She was genuinely happy! And now with the useless knowledge that she was utterly and absolutely in love with him. Oh well. And... damn she fell even more for him now! LIKE 20× MORE!! STOP HER PLEASE!!

And uh well she's not very good at hiding it so yeah her secret didn't last long, maybe i'll write how the confession went someday! :)

So basically... at first he was like "What the fuck?? Why????" But uhm maybe er... maybe he uhm... you know-- maaaybeeeee--- okay im flustered BUT MAYBE he would realize in the moment that he was in... love too? Uhm... get a little... yk... awkward there... ,÷*×&×(× er-- I don't know!! I MEAN FUCK OF COURSE HE DID I LITERALLY SELF SHIPP WITH HIM UGH IM DUMB--

OKAY WE ARE DATING NOW. That's the point. 😭😭

It's awkward, not ideal for what people expect of a couple, we definitely still have our little silly banters, he does want to kill me! and i do like to annoy him!! BUT I LIKE IT THAT WAY!! We aren't a veeeery affectionate openly lovey dovey couple but we are deeply in love! And when we do have our little lovey dovey moments it's just us being two dumb messes who don't know a thing about what we are doing! Hand holding? Just the little fingers! Kisses? Barely cheek ones! (On my part obviously im kissing the hell outta his cheeks mwah mwah mwah) I mean, we are trying! I love him and he loves me!! Allot!!! Even if we get a little weird and flustered about it!

>//<

I like awkward dating. It's fun. I love my boyfriend. :>

Oh damn I realized I yapped allot, more than I should-- I was about to write my relationship with other minor characters in the game but uhm that's too much already! Sorry for making you read that much! ^^"

But thank you for reading anyways!! I really appreciate it <3 for reading to my ULTIMATE s/I yapping!! Or... well, a yapping about me! I hope you enjoyed it! Feel free to ask questions about my s/i or my self ship if you have any! Oh damn even yap back at me about your S/I's! F/O's? I would love to hear it! ^^

Bye everyone!!!~ ☆

[symphonic-scream]

Okay I wanted to specify the uniform differences for the gang in the Fool Makoto Swap I'm doing rn

So, the first trio only adjust uniform after they take down their first palace, Shido. For Goro, he unbuttons the blazer, and adds a vest over the shirt. It's dark red, with black stitching. It's a fabric vest, I think they're called sweater vests? Solid colour, deep dark red. He still wears loafers and his pants properly and everything

Haru, she swaps basic tights for kitty socks. Probably starts wearing nail polish again, maybe a bow or headband in her hair? An elastic on her wrist, cause she puts her hair up sometimes in this au. Blazer still done up, skirt still the same, but maybe she'd have stars painted on her shoes?

And, our Fool, Makoto. Under the blazer, she's got a navy and black hoodie. The main colour is black, with the hood, pocket, and sleeves being navy. She switches to the uniform pants, probably has been wearing scuffed blue sneakers this whole time

(after each palace, she adds something new to the look, as a sign of her being impacted by her new friends. Like for Morgana, she gets a bracelet he makes for her, piercings with Ren, new sneakers with Ryuji, and it's not seen, but perhaps a first tattoo for Yusuke?)

Ryuji is at Kosei, so he's always in their blue gym uniform rather than the standard uniform so it's no big deal.

Ren has his glasses, and instead of the blazer, he's got a black crew neck sweater with the theatre masks on the breast pocket. Akira, instead of the blazer, wears a bomber jacket, black with red, the same theatre masks on the back

Morgana's elementary school doesn't do uniform he's lucky here

And Yusuke, well. He never wears the blazer for Shujin, or the proper uniform shirt. Why? He wears the gym uniform jacket with the uniform pants, and his jacket is covered in paint splatters

As for our Faith Ann, I'm thinking she starts in proper uniform, maybe, and only when shit hits the fan does she start showing up in her hoodie from the game, and the skirt.

Anyways. Uniforms from the new arcana swap

[brokenhardies]

Makoto Niijima/Knight

Chariot Arcana

Former overachiever, Student Council President shoo-in, and A-grade student. However, when one of her friends - Eiko - was being abused by Kamoshida, she tried to call him out

However, this resulted in Kamoshida calling her to his office and attempting to sexually assault her. Makoto refused his advances, which led to him getting violent and breaking her leg, then spreading rumors about her having sex with him in order to stay on top

This resulted in Makoto becoming the school’s pariah

Bit of a loner and is hyper-aggressive, however, is still good at school. She tries to keep her results to herself as she doesn’t want to draw attention to herself

Older sister is a teacher at the school, which is probably why Kamoshida was able to get in and under, as he also wanted to ruin Sae for speaking out against him(?)

After Kana attempts to commit suicide, Futaba joins the Phantom Thieves

Daughter of Wakaba Isshiki, a researcher who was left wheelchair bound after a car accident, which Futaba insists is linked to the mental shutdown incidents that have been happening recently

Upon meeting Futaba and recognising her on social media, he asks her to go to his concert and meet up with Samuragochi, who’s trying to get a younger audience to come to his shows

Futaba immediately thinks its suspicious that Samuragochi has gone through several students, one of which being Akira’s twin brother Ren, who they’d recently gone to Mementos to save

No nude modelling incident, but when the trio confront Akira on his mentors abuses, Akira kicks them out of the shack that he and Samuragochi have been living in - which is when they find that Samuragochi has a Palace

Eventually, Futaba convinces Akira to join her in going to the Palace, which is when he awakens to his Persona

Akira is flamboyant and energetic, being very high-spirited and talkative. However, when he’s upset, he can get quiet, to the point where it’s scary

He and Yusuke bond over both being artists who were abused by their parental figures

His persona is Rocancourt, who uses Curse skills

Goro Yoshida/Baron

High Priestess Arcana

The Student Council President of Shujin Academy, taken in by Toranosuke Yoshida after his mother died in an accident caused by the mafia

Upon confronting Kaneshiro - who was his mother’s killer - Goro awakens to his Persona

Becomes the unofficial navigator and strategist for the group for a short period of time, with Violet’s help

Is often considered to be ‘too harsh’ to the students and is considered a buzzkill, which he tries to counteract by behaving ‘pleasantly’ as to not appear threatening

In reality, Goro is a surprisingly vindictive young man with a short fuse, that will often get set off over the shortest of things - which comes in handy when dealing with the injustices that the Phantom Thieves face

His persona is Corey, who uses Nuke skills

Main weapons are single-handed swords and ray guns

Ryuji Ohya/sans/Roger

Hermit Arcana

After his mother was killed due to her involvement in the Conspiracy - a death that also cost Ryuji his right leg due to being in the car at the same time - Ryuji was convinced his mother suffered from a ‘maternity neurosis’ and became a shut-in

As a result, the guilt and trauma from the accident and self-blame for his mother’s death caused Ryuji to gain a Palace

Has a skill in hacking, founding the white hat group Medjed but quitting it following their actions leaning over into black hat territory

However, Medjed decided to use their newfound position as being leaderless to threaten the Phantom Thieves — if the Phantom Thieves didn’t give up their identities, they would perform a large-scale attack on Japan known as the ‘cleanse’

Reluctantly, Ryuji contacted Yusuke, knowing they and their friends were the Phantom Thieves, in exchange for helping them with Medjed, the Phantom Thieves would change his heart

Awoke to his Persona by accepting his Shadow and confronting the image of his mother created by his distorted heart

His Palace is based on a Post Apocalyptic Wasteland, with raiders and bandits scavenging the area

His persona is Nautilus, who acts as the main Navigator for the team

Ann Takamaki/Rose?

Empress Arcana

The daughter of Felix Takamaki, the founder of a modelling studio

She works for her father as a model, predominantly appearing in photoshoots when she was in her teenage years

After her mother’s death, her father slowly began to become isolated and obsessed with material goods and power. Ann noticed that he’d started to become distorted as he’d begun to neglect her in favor of other models, namely Mika

I’m honestly not sure what causes Ann to seek out the Phantom Thieves… Maybe something to do with Shiho like in canon?

But she awakens in her dad’s palace and gains the strength to save herself and her friend from her father’s distortion

Her persona is Fiocca, who uses Psy skills

Main weapons are whips and sub-machine guns

Haru Okumura/Blanc?

Justice Arcana

Former heir to the Okumura Foods Conglomerate, who became a detective prodigy after her father mysteriously died

She’s working with Yoshida, and it’s after the Phantom Thieves are targetted for Felix Takamaki’s murder that she decides to seek them out and ask them to enter Yoshida’s palace

Very sweet and polite, good natured, but has a ruthless streak when in the Metaverse

Probably already knew of the Metaverse as she heard Violet say something about ‘pancakes’…

Her persona is Cagliostro, who uses Bless skills

Main weapons are axes and rocket launchers

Satoru Yoshizawa

Faith Arcana

Information not found, will get back to you later ;)
