Shin Megami Tensei 5 Vengeance - Yakumo's Childhood Past Lore

Yakumo needed more backstory lore in the OG, other than being a Raidou clone.

Spiritual powers that goes back multiple generations? Sounds like that Kuzunoha connection could still be made.

He is not beating the Raidou ripoff allegations

[@mrex666productions7]

So Eisheth killed his parents? Because I'm sure that's the only Qadistu that's explicitly stated to "exploit (spiritual) weaknesses".

[@jaffinator2166]

I interpreted it as Namaah since 1. We’ve seen her commit similar acts during the story 2. She’s weak to Phys and specializes in dark. Yakumo specializes in Phys and is weak to dark. Would be thematically fitting if Yakumo specialized his craft to kill the one who murdered his parents, but can’t overcome his weakness due to trauma But really it’s impossible to say.

@@jaffinator2166 Naahmah isn't the kne tempting people though she just straight up kills them. It's Eisheth that does it.

[@cyberqueen7784]

So is that truly the last we see of Yakumo? I guess his role in the Canon of Vengeance is a more minor role compared to the Canon of Creation.

[@jaffinator2166]

There’s more that wasn’t shown in the video. There are two more scenes after this. One at the School and another at Jozoji Temple. And the end of the one at the temple, you can unlock both Nuwa forms early. Unfortunately Yakumo doesn’t join you as a guest

[@DMSwordsmaster]

Isn't there another scene involving him and Koshimizu standing in front of a building? It was in the opening at least.

[@mechajikin]

Yeah you can go back to real Tokyo and find him in the high school, then he goes to the temple there where u can get the cutscene that shows up in the opening.
