[@GiordanDiodato]

[@Vohalika]

The worst thing about Makoto is her confidant. Like. Of all the inane bullshit. The worst thing about Ann is that her being a sexual abuse survivor was immediately forgotten about after the Kamoshida palace and the game just turned it into a competition who could sexually harass her the most. And then her social link is all about how she, an underage sexual abuse survivor, needs to pose sexier on camera. Like. I can't even.

[@GenericUser860]

I know I'm literally a year late to this comment, but I actually think Ann being a model is really interesting! ... If the game's writing regarding her was competent enough to make it work. When I first started playing the game and saw the design of her Metaverse outfit and Carmen, I already had an idea of where her character arc might go: reclaiming her sexuality from abuse. The obvious BDSM inspiration for her latex suit plus the way Carmen had those lovestruck men on leashes made me think she was going to have a really interesting, not often explored character arc of a woman embracing her sexuality after having it be abused by a man in authority above her. Hence why her modeling would work too. She would want to feel attractive and be wanted, but on her own terms, i.e. only doing modeling gigs she wants to and is comfortable with. I even heard about how people were really upset with her being pressured into doing the nude modeling for Yusuke, then also heard about how Royal fixed some writing problems. So my thought was, "Great! If her character arc is going to play out like that, then a natural point of progression for it might be for her to agree to it from the get-go. It'd make sense too: a totally safe and artistic way for her to be nude. It'd make total sense for her arc!" And then I was sorely disappointed by how they fumbled it so terribly. In the actual game, her outfit is total fanservice, unrelated to a deeper desire other than a few throwaway lines of Mementos dialogue where party members comment on it perhaps being something she likes deep down. And her sexual abuse and other emotional trauma from the students constantly spreading rumors about her is completely forgotten and solved instantly, making perfect room for her to be constantly objectified! Seriously disappointed with how her character turned out.

[@daledrinnon7307]

@@GenericUser860 100% agree. Ive left several comments on social media alredy that echo your remarks. Yes, Ann had a great setup that could really go places.

I think the major problem with Makoto for me is the fact of how unfocused her Confidant is, as it's mostly about Joker and Makoto helping out Eiko rather than Makoto herself. There are a couple of things here and there on Makoto's personality and whatnot, but it's very brief. Her declaring to become a police commissioner to Joker, who was drugged, assaulted, and nearly killed by the police feels like character assassination (according to some people) on her especially. It's especially made worse by the fact of what kind of system Sae is seen to work under.

Ann is actually waifu material with her hair down and it's worth the price of admission to play the dancing game just to see her like that. It's the only game where she has her hair down.

[@animeotaku307]

Yup. Also Haru with her hair up is cute, too.

[@PanzerLord]

I refuse, even at gunpoint, to play a dancing game

[@kaelanmcalpine2011]

I'd have to disagree, though it's probably more because of familiarity than anything. Plus I want my rhythm game to have good songs and while the originals are as good as always, every remix aside from Rivers in the Desert and Blooming Villain are average at best, though the third best is Beneath The Mask because future bass is cool.

[@kaelanmcalpine2011]

@@PanzerLord I mean, what about rhythm games? Not all rhythm games have dancing in them. For example I was really into Guitar Hero and Rock Band back in the day.

Me and Haru are the best match: We both have big foreheads

actually her forehead is about average for the art style. I mean if Chihaya didn't have that ridiculous headband that made it look like she was in an 80s glam metal band, she'd probably have as big of a forehead.

The fact that your right about Ann being cuter in the dancing game with her hair down. Like when I started playing and got that accessory unlocked, I was like Jesus Christ your hot with hair down. Same could be said for haru with her ponytail

[@Commandasaurus]

I actually really enjoyed the Romance System in the game, though I wished there was a bit more focus, scenes and possibilities in it (would a few dates and a goodbye kiss at the end to much too ask for, for all of the "Waifus"?). Anyway... Persona 5 is still a MASTERPIECE for me, not the best game I ever played, but goddamn we need more quality like this in todays games! Favourite Waifu's are (in order) Hifumi, Makoto and Ann :D

(doubly so on Hifumi, I legit didn't know that was a thing and now I'm annoyed) Makoto: only time I'll disagree.

I'd argue the same for Futaba though not nearly as much since she comes in towards the middle of the game...I just don't expect anyone to finish her confidant until Shido's palace.

Yeah i played royal twice and romanced kasumi twice just because god shes adorable and i couldnt choose anyone else, it was painful on christmas and at hawaii, though i think i remember sharing hawaii with makoto once

I've always liked Hifumi but that swimming scene was awesome and really raised her in opinion, since she seems be much cooler than she is in-game. Makoto is still best girl, though her section was painfully accurate and hilarious. Haru is a close 2nd though

I actually remember one singular skill from Ohya because its her first confidant rank skill that you need to get to take a Mementos request from Lala, and thats the one that lowers the Security Levele every time you enter a safe room, which actually sucked. The one confidant I couldn't remember any skills from is Mona

I was surprised to not see that the worst thing about Kawakami, Takemi and Ohya is that they're LITERAL ADULTS dating a minor. Like they're all at least 25 and joker is 16-17, plus Kawakami is joker's teacher which sets a weird dynamic (which is too bad because her confidant is so helpful she's a game changer)

[@adamschmoetzer1854]

Chihaya is an adult too
