That ending
Was just amazing. Broke my heart. And makes me want MORRRE
Time to do it all again?
NGPlus time for you
Nope. Gonna take a break. I gotta tbh.
If I don't I won't enjoy my second playthrough.
Holy will power Batman...I don't have the brass to say no to NG
AHHHHHHHHH! That makes tons of sense actually!
IT IS JUST. AHHHHHHHHHH. I really want more games with these characters and set in this universe, judging by how much Atlus milked P4, hopefully this is far from the end of P5
Right? I NEED TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS TO MY THIEVES.
i'm glad you liked it!! i felt the same way!!
P5 Arena before any other spin-offs are made though. But yeah,this game is just...perfect
But I want it to be who you chose to date still being a thing.
Ah, like carrying over decisions similar the Telltale series of games? That'd be neat
Headcanon:
Joker spends the year closing lose ends, telling his parents to pack shit, comes back to Tokyo with his friends, and learns to run Leblanc, while working part time with the police, giving tactical advise as an ex phantom thief.
He later gets married to his lover, while accommodating her plans for her life.
Yeah, like that. (Mainly so jokerxOracle will still be a thing.)
Headcanon: joker opens his own coffee shop.
Persona 5-2

But doubt something like that would happen. A man can dream though
I finished watching all the date scenes.
I can confirm now that Ann, Hifumi, and Futaba are the most likely canon sources.

I've no idea why people ship Makoto (Outside of her appearance).
I have no idea either, bit she's my second choice.
Persona 5 final mix Arena dancing all ultimax with dante and bayonetta.
I can't see Ann as a canon gf to Akira because I always got the vibe that Ann and Ryuji were meant to be canon, especially in cut-scenes. Like the beach one where she teases him
I'd love Hifumi to be canon since she's so underrated with the (American) audience and she's literally 3rd best girl in my humble opinion.
The one thing I hate about the ending is the fact that I die at the end.
Eh. Holy grail was an amazing boss.
@phantomrider. I hoped Ann\Ryuji would be canon. Mostly because they know each other since middle school.
@Mementos4all, we shall never forget your sacrifice. Though be thankful you didn't turn into a door
@Aki-Joker, Same here! It would be perfect because they could be childhood sweethearts and they just have great chemistry in general
@Phantomrider finally someone that agrees. Just feel bad for morgana though.
I mean, morgana is in a tough spot, because of the whole "am a cat" thing.

But I agree, he really has feelings for Ann
I actually do ship annryuuji.
I mean, she was the one who was most upset when that one thing happened on the boat
Ryuji and Ann don't seem to have any lovey feelings for each other.
I just think they're good friends.
Ryuji thinks Ann is hot, but she's a model so that's not unexpected.
I mean, I could see it happening at some point, maybe after Akira leaves, they get closer?
Yeah. Maybe.
@Skull
There's a few other things that help debunk it.
For example, the "Beach scene", in the japanese setting, if Ann had *any* romantic feelings for him, she would have gotten even slightly embarressed (ie: Joker/Ann date scene on the beach), but she just points and launghs at his face, then goes bro status with flaunting herself to him like a buddy.

The boat scene is easily explained too. Not only did she know him the longest, but she's the Lovers arcana, which means she's more intouch with her feelings than any other tarot. So her having the most emotional scene makes sense on that front.

The last nail I had was if you don't date Ann, she never gives Ryuji chocolate. Ever. This was the last thing I needed to deflat any suspision of Ann/Ryuji.
I get why some people want it to be a thing, because the idea of childhood romance is cute, but it's destroyed with the weight of the situation.

Every scene that has her and Joker highlights the intention, from the first time he sees her, he's floored by her and she smiles back gently, to the fact that she's the only person Joker actively chases to calm down and tries to help in a 1v1 basis of a personal level.

The rest of the writing gave me the feelign that there would have been more intimate scenes like this, but time was cut short (like how Hifumi was cut from the PT lineup, and Haru felt horrifically rushed).

Anyway, I'm derailing this topic quite enough lol.
@Joker I mean, you had something to say, and it was all aptly put. No complaints here
@Joker I can get what you're thinking but I got more the sense that he feels anns sadness more with. That he feels empathie. But well everyone interprets differently.
