You'll find here all archived threads from the Phansite forum.

Spill it, what was the dumbest thing you thought for sure was true until it wasn't?

For me, I was absolutely certain that we'd steal the Principal's heart and that was when Makoto would join the Thieves.

Sae was the one with the black mask because she thin

Hibiki

Honestly I kind of
spoiled myself relatively early lol but
I did think Rivers in the Desert was the traitor boss theme and im disappointed it wasnt

pure-anon

that the fandom wouldn't be loaded with apologists for a murderer just because he's pretty!!

Tatsuya

That's adorable pure-anon!

@Hibiki I regret that he didn't have a unique battle theme.

Hibiki

@pure-anon
that's not exactly a misconception thats pretty spot on actually

Kitagawa

I genuinely went in thinking the game would let you gay and then I was talking to a friend about it and he was like "No dude you can't be gay" and I was devastated.

pure-anon

@Hibiki the misconception is that i thought the fandom wouldn't be totally overrun by people into him!! but it is!! and i find that intensely disappointing!!

Few_Regrets

Okay, why THE FUCK does no one seem to care about all the stuff he did in Akechi's death scene? Like, not even Ryuji thought "maybe this is what he deserves" for even a second.

Also, I thought Morgana was somehow gonna awaken and turn evil, and that he'd be a boss at some point in the game.

Few_Regrets

Although my biggest misconception was that they'd actually do something with Shiho, and not just toss her out after Kamishida.

I saw Morgana being like Marie coming. Did not see him being that due to Igor, though.

mona is the t r a i t o r

When I first saw the bit where Joker caught on fire for the reveal, I was like "DO THEY BECOME THEIR PERSONA?!" then I realized I was dumb

hazama

I thought Mr. Traitor Man was going to be another Adachi. I honestly am not aure if that's a good thing or bad yet, but I do like him a lot more than I ever did Adachi so uhhhhh

Soupicide

I thought, dumbly enough, that Mishima would join the Phantom Theives. Nope, he's just a phanboy.

Ari3s

Before the game was out, I thought the Phantom Thieves were going to be anti-villains, or anti-heroes at very least.

GETBENT

Beauty Thief being the "Black Mask" behind the mental shutdowns.

NotAJojoReference

*spoilers*

That Akechi would be with us till the end.

I cry everytiem

Hacker_Of_Justice

I legit thought Joker was gonna have hunger or jester arcana

Mako-chan

I thought after Sae's Palace it would be over. I legit thought Akechi shot Joker and it was game over, but you could go back and fix it in NGPlus

Souji Seta

I really, sincerely thought/hoped these heists would be IRL and we'd actually steal real shit.
