everyone talks about how joker is a masochist for goro and cries over him.
but no one talks about how joker can't focus on anything if he doesn't have morgana with him.
all he thinks about is morgana at this point.
why did he leave? who's he with? how'd he meet her? he always used to watch over me... i can't do anything without him...

Real life gunblades do exist, during the civil war-ww1 era bayonets were vital for rifles since it made them into better spears when in close combat. Japanese style gunblades in media are based on the idea of the gun being secondary to the blade which is something more 1500s due to Pistol sword's being more common, there were some in the 1800s for prison guards. The reason Japan loves them is in WW2 there was a Nambu that had a gunblade variant and it has many myths behind it since it's a fucking katana attached to a pistol.

i like how sae's confidant only starts after telling her makoto joined the pts.
sae has to start believing joker at this point because it lines up with her noticing makoto bringing up the pt a lot during the kaneshiro arc.
and also because if it's true that makoto joined the pts then makoto could end up in trouble if sae doesn't catch the true culprit.

right after the siu director talks to shido about his plan to defeat the phantom thieves goro's confidant event to play gun about unlocks.
that's the event where he first alludes to how he'll shoot joker with "i need all the practice i can get if i'm going to take you out."
he only makes that remark after it's been decided he has to kill joker.
and the first thing he wants to do with joker after this has been decided is to practice to kill him.
he's also unavailable after this for a while. unavailable until the public turns on him after medjed gets taken down. then he gets sad and invites joker to the bath house.
he avoids joker after the initial hangout event where he knows he has to kill him. but that feeling of being unwanted can still spur him to want to hang out with someone it seems.

should the detective character and the black mask character have been separate?
i remember it being a common criticism that the most prominent character who criticized the phantom thieves ended up being a hypocrite and none of his criticisms of them ended up mattering.

but i'd say a criticism of the phantom thieves still does exist in the background. they enable people to be slothful. the criticism is more so how society falls back on someone else to fix their problems for them.
goro's criticism of how the phantom thieves take justice into their own hands never mattered and all it was was entertainment for the public and also a means to deflect the blame of the psychotic breakdowms and mental shutdowns onto the phantom thieves.

Yeah man, it's a Marvel comic book, it's Featherman. Not serious writing
It's hard carried by well realized character interactions and art design/inspirations, but the actual story and events of the game are entirely silly and far fetched
It doesn't have any serious plotline to follow, it's like a cartoon. Each episode tackles various themes (almost all of them are anti-patriarchal statements, controlling others is bad, corrupt/unjust law is bad, corrupt men in power twirl mustaches while they abuse women and orphans)

"Satan shoots God in le face to save the world" is the most on the nose you can be. P4 was better

>>537356782
No man. Everything before Shido's palace was to lul you into thinking that. And then theology and gnostism came out of nowhere like in SMT 4 to remind you you're a fucking retard.

Is there a valid reason as to why these games don't allow you to save unless you're at your home? With how much dialog and other things are in this game, you're not always going to get back to the save area without basically trying to skip through what everyone is saying

Yeah dude, and 'Sophia' being an AI automaton waifu is so intelligent bro, gnosticism is hecking DEEP, I love KABBALAH!

I'm just not really fond of Persona 5's story at all
'Reach out to the truth' was a way better theme for a story. Seeking the 'myriad truths' to cut through the fog of corruption and deception
10/10 themes that actually link up to the storylines in meaningful ways and their abilities with how they integrate their shadows to unlock their Persona
Persona 5 is just "throw off your oppressor" over and over and over again and it's just weak. Rebellion as a theme only works for half of a story.

Damn, it's already been two years, huh?
Anyway, Naoto is rather keenly aware of social faux pas from the perspective of one that has read about it rather than experienced it, which means she likely wouldn't try to do so on a whim without a really good reason.
Couple that with her characterization of Yu as one of her old daring detective heroes who are also notorious womanizers, then you're left with a situation where Yu wouldn't say no, but Naoto would never ask to begin with, especially if it's an entirely non-sexual night.
Cute idea, though.

Naoto is great in Heaven, mid in Magatsu, and the arbiter of life and death after that. She's worth keep on the front lines from the time you get her on, and that's in both vanilla and golden.

i do kinda feel like it doesn't make much sense from the perspective of living today in the u.s.a. but it apparently makes more sense in japan or at least did when the games were made. but even japan is changing so there will probably be fewer characters like them. i don't think that's necessarily a bad thing though. they'll just find different more universal problems to have a character be insecure about.

First of all Naoto >>>>>>>>> Sae

But to address the question, in reality most all young men have grown up in a world completely shrouded by the concepts of gender equality. So, the idea that "a woman can't be XYZ" is completely farcical and backwards to most, especially when it comes to a fictional story.

With our Naoto though, there is depth there in her struggle to face herself. Because it's not that there's some evil man who's oppressing her and telling her she can't be a detective because of her gender. It's her own insecurity over gender, that's born from her inspirations not looking like her, her forefathers and the great detectives in the novels all being male, that causes her to believe what she believed. Sae mirrors the story but hers is far more heavy handed and cartoonish. She is literally the only good cop in the game, she's openly oppressed and her authority undermined by wicked men in power all because of her gender and 'outsider' status.

Women holding positions of power is still controversial, yes. We can't pretend that it's not. The post-modern world has seen the "gender binary" hijacked by insidious corporate interests that want to turn women into men and men into women for profit. This has caused a pullback from many young people from the liberal idea of gender equality they were instructed with. Many believe that perhaps this is just a corporate, profit driven ideal that has wiggled its way into culture and the sexual marketplace, hyper inflating the value of women in the workforce, destabilizing the creation of families through at-will divorce and on demand contraceptives.

Many of these things are natural consequences of 'modernity' sure, but others are being specifically enforced by a system. That system wants more women in control of the levers of power, not at home with their family, because those same women are then easier to manipulate and will address less problems than a man in the same position.

>>537391457
So you believe Naoto's perception of the police being a male-dominated field was just in her head? Part of the reason she was cross-dressing after all was to "not give them another reason to look down on me" on top of her youth. Law enforcement being a boy's club is practically universal, so it's not much of a stretch to say that we didn't need to see it happen to get the point. But of that issue, we hear of it once from her and never again.
In Sae's case, we hear a lot more of her whining than actually seeing any latent sexism, which makes it seem more imagined than real.

P5 implies more than shows and Sae is one of them, since she gets into law at age fucking 12 and had other reasons to be discriminated against. Sae isn't a commentary about herself and more a commentary about Japan's law system.
>>
>>537356782
A few things:
Half the villains in P5 are based on real people and events, so saying that they're farfetched is silly. You can just say you didn't like them, but they happened. I agree that there are some parts that are unrealistic and silly, but the plotlines themselves aren't one of them.
As for the themes, P5 does a better job at fleshing them out and exploring deeper meaning and counterpoints. Sure, helping people out is fine, but what happens when they then become dependent on you to continue helping them? If freedom is so good, why do people want to be controlled, even if they know they're being controlled by a bad person? Can ANYONE be trusted with this amount of power, even if they have good intentions?
Some interesting and obvious counterpoints to P4 themes that could have easily been addressed, but weren't:
Is it always worthwhile to pursue the truth? Are there some things that you are better off not knowing, due to the difficulty of learning them or the consequences of finding out? What if there are things we can never know? Are social bonds always good? Can social bonds mislead us, hurt us, or take us further away from the truth? Can we ever really know the truth, or is truth-seeking just an endless march forward to an unreachable ideal?

Her instakill spells with the boosts do stack even if they say they don't, instakills in persona sucks anyways outside of the protag in FES to counter the 2 hits needed to get an instakill going. She gets mind charge and some other heavy spells when taking her out to the bath house which is much stronger
>>
>>537391359
more?
>>
>>537392184
Yes, but without careful approach, characters being used as symbolic representations of broader social issues leaves them and their story lacking. Regardless of whether you're trying to say something more through a character or not, everything you say has to go through that character, which in this case comes off as more whiny than the writers intended because they wanted to staple a series of large issues to a character that doesn't follow them through and gets little time for real development.
>>537392559
Not be a retard that gets your opinions from reddit.
Also just stack instakills with boosts, prioritize individual kill spells if you don't know what you're doing, add instakill boosts/amps, and stock the fuck up on SP consumables. Then have her rain death on the enemy.

What I'm saying is that Naoto's perception isn't what matters, she is a good detective. Nobody in a position of authority ever really questions her capability in the entire story. They judge her appearance and age, sure. But when does anyone tell her that she can't be a detective as a woman? I don't remember that happening. That was a big part of the story, the fact that nobody actually ever comes up to Naoto and tells her "you're a girl, you can't be a detective".

Compare that to Sae, who is introduced in the first few minutes of Persona 5 as a female detective who is an outsider to the "boys club" that you just mentioned. But it's been years since this stuff was normalized.....Detective Olivia Benson had been on TV in America for what, 15 years at that point? Female judges in court, female cops on the street, female lawyers working cases. All of that has long been totally normalized. It's completely cartoonish to have the only female cop in the entire game be blatantly treated with sexism and disrespect during her own introduction scene. It's heavy handed.

>>537392230
It's silly and far fetched that Masayoshi Shido was the person who Joker stopped from sexually assaulting the woman at the beginning.
It's a complete cartoon contrivance, and it's another example among many of how heavy handed Persona 5's narrative and worldbuilding is.
Every single episode of the story feels like another contrivance that is almost always centered around "men are bad, women are good".
The arcs in Persona 5 lack the subtlety or nuance of any single character arc in Persona 4 in my opinion

Agreed.

I think this is more that all the villains are men while the main party is mixed. I'm not really seeing the sexism angle. The way I see it, most of the people in power are men (and this is realistic and not a bad thing), so a story about exploring the corruption in places of power will necessarily be about bad men.

>The arcs in Persona 5 lack the subtlety or nuance of any single character arc in Persona 4 in my opinion
I kind of see where you're coming from. They don't go deep into the motivations behind the villains because ultimately they are just doing what they do out of sociopathy or desire for power. P4 spends more time exploring the "villains" because each shadow you defeat ultimately reveals information about your next party member. It doesn't have to spend time developing both a protagonist and antagonist, they're the same person.

what do you guys think when you see characters like goro who has a very specific backstory and motivation heavily rooted in japanese social dynamics?
or i suppose for some his desire to be liked is enough to be relatable.
but also does a character having an unrelatable/relatable insecurity and/or backstory affect how you see them?

>>537391457
>naoto/sae
yes, you explain the differences well.
i wouldn't say sae is the only good cop though. she was on the path to become just as bad as everyone else until joker convinces her to trust him and ends up bringing her back to her senses.
i kinda get the feeling it's meant to contrast with how makoto interacts with the phantom thieves as well. with sae's experiences representing an old outdated system to be annoyed with and makoto's experiences with the phantom thieves representing a newer system where nobody gives a fuck about superficial aspects of someone else and makoto gets respected on skills alone.
i also wonder if makoto "gets" what sae is even talking about when she complains to makoto about her problems. makoto studied a lot because she was told she had to to be respected but i'm not sure she ever experienced the reason why sae wanted her to do that. reads like generational trauma.

>equality, workforce, etc.
nothing is stopping women from holding positions of power today like there was several years ago.
there are no laws anyway and it's illegal to discriminate based on gender.
but i get that there are and always will be people who don't want women leaders. but do those people have any say in if a woman is allowed to be in a leader? in politics i suppose since that requires people on masse to vote for someone who aligns with their beliefs but i'd still say it's much easier to get into a position of power for women today compared to several years ago like when women couldn't vote on political matters.
and maybe they do make us weaker. idk. but i would say our current president is very easy to manipulate as well.
>>
>>537394426
I think looking at people and stories as relatable/unrelatable is a very shallow and unhelpful way to analyze them. You can always find similarities or differences, it depends on what you're attuned to. Someone who's very different from you can tell you something you never would have realized, and often someone may not even be able to "relate" to a character similar to them because they can't or won't see the similarities.

Shooting for "Wow that's so relateable" is the death knell of good storytelling. You want an audience to understand and sympathize with relateability being coincidental rather than the goal.

i kinda agree that judging a character based on how relatable they are is shallow and obviously wouldn't lead to a good analysis. but i do think relatability helps a character seem more endearing. people like what they can understand.

Is she not a part of the Shirogane family of ace detectives? And is she not revealed to be a girl during the events of the story long before she works with Dojima, for example?
Nobody tells her she's not allowed to work anymore. The story deliberately omitting something like that seemed important. The point I'm trying to get across is that, while Naoto is very concerned about her gender......not many other people really seem to be. Her merit can speak for itself. That (to me) seemed to be the entire point of the character

>a public prosecutor
You're right, my oversight. She's a prosecutor, she doesn't investigate and discover the evidence, she just presents it and wins cases.
I guess the extended interrogation throughout the game colored my perception of her role.
She even stacks the deck in her favor to win, because well, "that's what the men do" lol

>>537393947
>all the villains are men while the main party is mixed
Yeah, because the boss fights against the women were all red herrings. Futaba's mom was her own imagination, she never did anything wrong to Futaba because she's a woman in Persona 5, which means she can only be a victim of a male oppressor. Same with Sae, total red herring. Her shadow only exists because of the "glass ceiling" (men who treat her poorly). You don't even change her heart because she is actually good already.

>I'm not really seeing the sexism angle
Every single villain in the game is a raging misogynist. It's pretty blatant what they were trying to say. The big problem here is that there is no variety. Every mustache twirler is the exact same flavor of "rapist who abuses poor orphans". It's just boring. The best stories in the game were actually the Mementos changes of heart because they were personal and emotional without being entirely mustache twirling rapists.

>It doesn't have to spend time developing both a protagonist and antagonist, they're the same person.
That's why the game is so genius. It's bloody brilliant.

>>537395990
you don't change sae's heart in the metaverse to trick goro.
you change her heart in the real world afterwards because you are taking a huge risk that your life depends on and you are just that good at forging bonds. that's joker's power that separates him from goro, who instead breaks bonds and gets others to act as if they don't have any.
sae like most people will become a monster because she was abused but you stop it.
mishima and goro for instance were also victims who become abusers but you also stop mishima and convince goro to help you in the end.
i think the implication is most people who end up as monsters were abused in some way. there are several npcs who want their company to collapse because they are treated poorly there even though they don't have anywhere else to go.

and wakaba was probably originally going to be evil to some extent. her concept art tells me she was probably supposed to be shadier and more morally gray at least with how she was experimenting on someone.
but she probably will just stay as faultless because atlus is never doing more with her lol.

I genuinely still don't get how am I supposed to use this character, the whole instakill thing seems like a gimmick and never works, there doesn't seem to be anything she can do particularly well, her health is minescule, sorry but I just don't get it
>>
was goro's mom a horrible person? he doesn't seem to blame her at all so maybe the game is trying to make her seem faultless. but she still decided to have continuing romantic relations with a man and have unprotected sex despite knowing how inconvenient it would be to have a kid out of wedlock. or maybe she just thought shido would still want her afterwards.
and goro seems to also blame himself for his mom's death but it's not stated whether she actually hated him or not. it's just what he thinks.
but still, he would have had to have been a burden on her if she couldn't take care of herself anymore out of depression and died.

basically, goro probably had a similar mindset to his mom hating him that futaba had for her mom.
and goro's mom isn't a precious dindu nuffin. it's likely true to at least some extent that she hated having to take care of him.

Right, Naoto's charade. They supported her. It was not the Shirogane charade.
Once Naoto faced herself, the charade ended. Nobody forced Naoto to behave or present herself in a specific way. That's the point.....

Does anyone with the police ever one time come up to her and say "Heyy, you're the Detective Prince! You tricked us! You're really a girl, my daughter goes to your school and told me about you! Women have no place upholding the law!" just so that they can drive home that sexism is bad?
No. But something like that would have happened if it were written by a lesser group of people.

I'm pretty sure the only thing anyone ever really says to Naoto was about her age, not her sex....which is an absolutely valid concern.
What the fuck does a 15 year old know about the hard work of being a detective? Goro should be receiving that same treatment in any real story.
But yet he doesn't because he's a bad male, a bad male in Persona 5. The game filled with blatant commentary on sexism. So Akechis allowed to be a junior ace detective at 16, nobody questions him at all. Because he's a sexist male, you get it?! Sexism bad! Also, he's THE SECREEETTTT BAD GUY AND THE SEECCREETTTT SON OF THE VILLAIN! DUN DUN DUNNN! Fucking hell...and then the endless monologue of mustache twirling exposition they share together....off topic.

Anyways, always nice to have a Noot conversation.

goro was piggybacking off the original hype behind naoto so people already had the cognition that young detectives can work well.
and goro was solving unsolvable crimes because he started them giving him more of a reputation.
>he's a sexist male
what? are we still talking about goro? when is he sexist? if anything he's way too forgiving of his mom. but that also makes sense because that was the only person who did care for goro at all.
>goro shido exposition
it's cheesy but it does show how shido makes goro feel more important than he actually is and explains how they started working together.
but i do think it could've been done better.
>secret bad guy
i actually do think it's set up quite well with how everything he does reflects what the siu director, kobayakawa, and shido are talking about.
an incident occurs at the school with kamoshida getting a change of heart and then one of our guys gets the same treatment? what happened to madarame? we need this figured out.

What you're missing is the point of conflict between her being known as a girl and still working with the police in any capacity just never comes around. Dojima didn't once make mention of the fact that Naoto wasn't a boy and it's possible he didn't even know until after the story. The only reason people outside the IT know is because of the midnight channel which all but Adachi are unaware of.
And yes, she does in fact make mention of using the disguise to specifically not be looked down on as a girl by the police force.

Nor should it. That's my entire point. It didn't happen, because it shouldn't have happened, because the point was that it never actually mattered.
Do you think this is going to be changed in Revival? Would it be a better story if she gets called out by a sexist man for faking her gender?
Or do you think it's unnecessary, and that her sex shouldn't matter....because that was the original intention of the character?
Everyone knows Naoto is a girl at the high school that Naoto goes to in October. She works with Dojima (police) and the IT to rescue Nanako shortly afterwards.
Adachi is literally the prime candidate to call Naoto out for being a girl detective........never happens.

I think you're clinging to Naoto's own pre-IT delusions about her sex mattering, and you should respect her enough to realize that the insecurity really was in her head.

>the notions of a sexist environment
Those notions did not and do not actually matter whatsoever. Yu teach her that.
That's literally the point of the whole character. You can't let insecurity and outside perceptions of what "thing" is determine the perception that you have for yourself when you dream to become "thing". Naoto does not have to dress up as a man to be taken seriously as a detective. That's the entire point.

For someone who posts Naoto a lot, your sense of what she represents has maybe....calcified, over time?
Tell me what I'm missing here about Naoto.

Naotos character is not to critique sexism in the police force or any traditional male work force
Adachi is the sexist police himself, but yet he never once says anything to Naoto
You would think if the sexist environment really made any difference, the literal sexist bad guy would bring it up
Her charade ends of her own choice and she faces no consequences or even insults from anyone for being female whatsoever
Because the sexism in the police force was imaginary, self imposed even though 'sexist' and 'misogynist' police do still exist.
Chie becomes a police officer and not one time does she struggle with her identity as a female officer
All of this was very clearly deliberate.

>>537403939
Once again, always glad to talk Naoto so I hope you don't feel bothered. I'm not trying to be antagonistic. She's one of my favorites too.
I think Naoto is really, really neat.

What about that looks like a shitpost to you? It's a slow burning irritation from your consistent inability to stick to conversational threads and throwing in whataboutisms that while could be discussed would massively derail the discussion and take five times as long. You are beyond irritating to speak to and despite what you might like to convince yourself of, it's not because your logic is just so ironclad that it can't refuted. It's because you're dense, jump from thread to thread when one doesn't work, and cannot for the life of you, understand what another person is trying to tell you.
I agreed with you, this entire time. My point from the start though isn't that we don't see sexism from Naoto's perspective because it's not there, just that we didn't have a chance to. Adachi might be chauvinist. but he's also not the type to go out of his way to specifically also make fun of Naoto for having tits when he's hiding who he really is. Even when he's not hiding it, he's already chiding everyone for being kids playing at hero. That wasn't something that needed to be brought up, nor discussed to get the point where we're on the same page, you goon, you autist, you goober.

Let me break this down into the most crayola-crayon warning label reading level possible. If you misinterpret this, then you will not get a response and I shall drive to the nearest church and pray for God to have mercy on you.

1) Nowhere in these recent posts did I state the irritation was from a specific comment you made about Naoto.
1a) I in fact went out of my way to point out that the source of my irritation was your constant misinterpretation of my posts.
1b) In addition to that, your constant jumping from point to point, whataboutism, and bringing in new and unprompted points adds to the irritation of speaking with you.
1c) This, listed with above, contributes to a massive waste of everyone's time.

2) I agree that Naoto's perception of a sexist work environment could very well have been ske
wed. This is where the "agreement" comes in.
2a) You commented that we never see sexism present in Naoto's story my response was that we never had a chance to see it.
2b) This was not an outright refutation despite your following posts treating it as such.
2c) Agreement on the central point does not in fact mean I can't think you're irritating to speak with
2d) This discussion has been entirely pointless.

3) You do read posts.
3a) You speak in a manner-of-fact about things that weren't said.
3b) You're incredibly insistent about these things that weren't said.
3c) You are not owed a defense against things that weren't said.

4) My irritation is overstated and I'm simply unwilling too converse with you for prolonged periods of time for reasons disclosed above.

There we go, as simple as I can make it. I hope that helps.

In my darkest moments, when the weakness of the flesh and weariness of the soul took the reins of my mind, I spotted the devil itself in a darkness no mortal eyes could see. A gangly silhouette took form amidst the formless void and my mind's eye could see a wicked grin spreading through its thin lips. My meager protections of the Lord screamed at me to turn back, to not take the deal that would seal my soul unto damnation. Too true, there may have been another path, but shorn of the light to see it, I found myself unable to resist the allure of the darkness. It spoke no words, nor needed it. Its slender putrid arm reached out of the darkness, to beckon, to absorb and I reached back with my left, making the forbidden pact. Reverberations in the air played fancy at an ephemeral voice speaking the words that would signal my demise. All around, from the emptiness of the air did I hear a resounding "Hoy".

>the source of my irritation was your constant misinterpretation of my posts
I see. You're upset and feel misunderstood in some way.
My friend.....Why can't you greentext?
You see how I chose a line that you wrote directly, to reply to that line specifically?
Why can't you do that so people can see what it was they posted that you take umbrage with?

What do you think someone misinterpreted about one of your posts? Greentext it. That way, people can better digest what it is you're talking about and you can communicate properly by pointing out the specific lines or ideas that you are trying to reply to.

Whenever you agree with someone, you can easily preface your rebuttal of the ideas you don't agree with by saying "I agreed with what you said here and here, but disagree with you here and here". But instead of doing that simple communication of your thoughts.....you went on a big autism tap dance spree about how someone should inherently know what you're thinking without communicating it through the keyboard.

I've read all of your posts multiple times now by the way. That's just general respect. I give all posters general respect, and I will continue to give you enough respect to tell you that I think you're alright, if not blatantly autistic, and I don't have a problem talking with you about P4!
You know that too, which is why you're getting mad about "misinterpretation" even though I'm being very pleasant towards you.
How could I misinterpret your post, if I didn't first read your post?

I've asked you direct questions multiple times that you failed to address because you're getting emotional that we aren't communicating telepathically. An 'argument' that didn't exist, entirely in your head. We are actually in agreement, as you've stated. I cannot fathom why anyone would get so frustrated about someone saying something they agree with. I don't give a shit if you think I'm frustrating to deal with. Reply to substance, show respect, be a man.

Every major villain is a chauvinist male obsessed with power and a distorted desire, they all openly disrespect the women in their lives.
Kamoshida, Madarame, Kaneshiro, Okumura, and Shido were all openly womanizing mustache twirling cartoon rapists lacking in depth. One note manifestation of different sins.

The major female villains were both red herrings, Futaba's moms abuse was outright imaginary and she was actually a perfect scientist genius who was killed by evil jealous men. Her palace represents wrath (towards men)
Sae is not a villain as she does nothing wrong, is forgiven without a fuss, is the only police officer on your side, a perfect genius who is held back by evil men. Her palace represents jealousy (of men)

The only major villain you could say isn't a womanizer is Akechi, but even then he's depicted as having groupies, and he deliberately treats them like garbage because he's gay for Joker.
Half of all the Mementos quests are just guys that abuse/use/have a fucked up relationship with women.
>>
>>537415034
Again, you're failing to consider that these people are simply bad and treat everyone around them poorly, regardless of sex. Really confused about your characterization of several of the characters you mentioned as "womanizing" as well, particularly Madarame, Kaneshiro, and Okumura. Madarame just has a girlfriend and Okumura isn't shown to be in any relationship at all. This really reads like a college liberal arts "if you treat a minority poorly in any way you're problematic" argument.

>Futaba's moms abuse was outright imaginary and she was actually a perfect scientist genius who was killed by evil jealous men. Her palace represents wrath (towards men)
i disagree on the "towards men" part. also, futaba is wrath because she takes her perceived mom's hatred out on herself.
also she wakaba wasn't killed because shido and his conspiracy were jealous of her. she was killed because she refused to help them. goro and shido go over this in their "mustache twirling villain" exposition dump.
>Sae is not a villain as she does nothing wrong
she was really close to becoming one. and she took her frustrations out on makoto.
>The only major villain you could say isn't a womanizer is Akechi, but even then he's depicted as having groupies, and he deliberately treats them like garbage
when? the worst he does to them is turn them down and avoid them.
>Mementos quests are just guys that abuse/use/have a fucked up relationship with women.
and crazy overly possessive girls like the crazy yandere girl who stalks a guy she likes in a hallway at your school. and the girl who abducts cats because she saw a cat get run over.

>these people are simply bad and treat everyone around them poorly, regardless of sex
Yes, they are bad people. Obviously they hate You, the male protagonist who is led around by women.
The game literally highlights specifically how poorly the villains treat women above all else in order to emotionally control you and your team that is always inevitably made up of women.

The main antagonist of the game is introduced by sexually abusing a defenseless woman in the middle of the street and then attempting to ruin your life for trying to protect that woman. He treats everyone poorly when they stand in his way (abusing women)
The introductory villain of the game is introduced sexually (and physically) abusing defenseless students to the point a girl attempts suicide. He treats the boys and girls poorly only when they stand in his way (abusing children)
The second villain of the game is introduced financially abusing a dead womans self portrait with her child, erasing the child from the painting, defacing the womans work and tarnishing the memory of the womans, oh yeah and he totally killed that woman by the way (abusing women) oh yeah and he groomed her male child into being a master artist as well so he could manipulate him (abusing children) but even at the end of the story, Yusuke still admires Madarame and wants to be his pupil still in Maruki world
The third villain of the game, you guessed it.......HE'S ABUSING WOMEN AND CHILDREN!
And for the fourth villain of the game....ABUSE OF A FEMALE CHILD!
The fifth villain of the game......so on...and so forth.

All I'm saying is that it's repetitive and bland. It makes every single encounter and question that the game poses to you null and moot from the start. Yes they are evil, no they have nothing good to say, look at this man in his Darth Vader costume ABUSE HIS FEMALE CHILD.
It's hokey. It's lame. It's LAZY

I didn't say Persona is lazy, I said Persona 5 villains felt like lazy copy pasted cartoon villains of the week that represent different sins but that they all relate back similar actions; abuse of women and children for cheap emotional bait
I didn't say it's bad quality stuff either. I really liked Madarame and Kaneshiro arc and how tied they were to Yusuke and Makotos awakening.
I just said it's hokey, lame, and lazy to have so many villains in the same game doing the exact same generically evil things one after another.
It's extremely over the top.

Oh yeah, and then you get to the Social Links, where you.....help more girls being abused by men....who could have seen that coming.

I'd say Persona 5 actually does a pretty good job of balancing it out, considering you end up with three social links and two male party members who are directly involved with the villain's villainy and are men
I'd say if anything your line here
>The game literally highlights specifically how poorly the villains treat women above all else in order to emotionally control you and your team that is always inevitably made up of women.
Reads more like what you're doing right now, stoking an argument with something that will grab anons' attentions (women) and making an assertion with no real logic behind it ("inevitably", as if I didn't have Yusuke on my team the entire time)
In fact I'm pretty sure you're aware of this because you went from "women" to "women AND children" in your second post, which is still pretty lackluster because Persona is at its core about teenagers dealing with antagonistic forces so that dynamic is inevitable

If you really just wanted to say
>All I'm saying is that it's repetitive and bland.
Then yeah I agree but I think you've ironically built this on a very lazy argument, you can't really avoid relationship dynamics when writing human characters, but what you can do is avoid repeating the details

I will say, there is something to be said here about how Persona treats its villains and the concept of "seeing what you want to see", and I wish P5 leaned into that more, or at least as much as P4 sort of did

the phantom thieves are mixed. they aren't all women.
>The game literally highlights specifically how poorly the villains treat women above all else
mishima and the male students getting abused by kamoshida?
yusuke being taken advantage of by madarame?
etc.
you even mention both these things later in your post.

and the point i was making is that the game isn't saying "men are oppressive and women are precious and faultless."
and others and i have given examples of women doing bad things earlier but not all in reply to one of your posts:
>mika
>hifumi's mom
>chihaya
>futaba
>makoto
>yandere girl
>cat abducter
>sae
>goro's mom

i do think the argument is also kinda semantical with "is this misogyny or not?"
i think most the main villains display misogyny barring madarame and okumura and sae.
but i'd also say it's not their sole characterization.
they abuse everyone they have power over and not just women, as the other anon stated.
>madarame
doesn't display any specific hatred of women nor see them specifically as beneath him.
>okumura
i don't even think he's misogynistic. he only treats his daughter badly. she's a bargaining chip to him. we don't know how he used to treat his wife or other women. the way he treats haru isn't even inherently misogynistic. if it was it would be more like "she's beneath me because she's a girl." but he doesn't act that way. he acts like "since she's an okumura she should do whatever it takes to bring in wealth." he does this for the obvious reason of he's obsessed with money because he grew up poor so he couldn't have the things he wanted.

also i'm curious what you think of the phantom thieves showing sympathy to goro and saying "that's it... we HAVE to take down shido!" after he sacrifices himself.
he was a victim but also an abuser yet they still showed him sympathy. and he wasn't even a woman... so why does goro get that special treatment?

Outliers, exceptions. There are 2 "bad" misunderstood women for every 8 horribly evil men, there are 8 perfectly good genius women for every 2 dumb as rocks "good" men.
And I get it, you want to depict society and it's darkness. That means sexual abuse, blackmail, abuse of children, it's all on the table. Men are the major players, men are the ones who do this dirty work.
I understand all of that. It's all a part of the whole of the story. But what is that whole really? It's a quite one sided tale in P5 compared to the others.
I love women, we have to cherish them as they hold the keys to new life. But being told over and over again "treating women badly is the worst thing ever" is not that interesting of a concept across a 100 hour JRPG.
Good game, great even. But combine the repetitiveness in the narrative with the exceedingly repetitive gameplay loop and you've got something I think I'd struggle wanting to replay again.

The only appeal would be to have a Sae romance mod and just speedrun a NG+

I disagree with "focused", more like Sayuri was the starting point where things spiraled from
The focus is Yusuke and the students he abused, past, present and future, and the rest of the world he was also deceiving, and while you could say Sayuri falls into that pattern somewhat, it's less about her being a woman (or anything about her at all, even) and more with Madarame's own sickness that he didn't realise was there until the situation presented it
If we changed any of the character's genders and nothing else I don't think the narrative would be affected all that much (in this pure hypothetical where developer intent doesn't come into it, because as far as I know nobody's picked the developer's brains on this specific train of thought to know either way)

what are you talking about? just that he ignored his fangirls?

>Makoto and Futaba are both perfect geniuses
makoto's introduction has her fall into kaneshiro's hands because she was being too hot headed for being called useless.
futaba couldn't leave her room without others helping her.
the point being they aren't perfect.

>Akechi's downfall, he leapfrogged that whole issue
he was too prideful to see his own mistakes or think about if he did anything wrong.
>kill his own father
i disagree. he both hated and loved shido. he wanted shido to rely on him and accept him for who he truly was. that's what he really wanted. the public's praise was hollow to him because they "didn't know he was an undesirable child." so that's why shido mattered so much because he's the only one who could've accepted him for being a throwaway bastard child since shido is his dad.
but goro also did want revenge. he wanted shido to see him as superior. he likely would've used his bastard status as blackmail against shido to hold power over him while simultaneously getting shido to recognize that shido only got where he was because of goro.

This is just a discussion about Ichinose that's going the long way round before bringing her up, because she's THE P5 woman who did get off too lightly even though they gave a pretty standard reason for her to get away with everything (it's over and nobody would believe her anyway)
And that's after the fact that Alice and Mariko get dealt with like male villains despite being comparatively less evil, and Akane's neglect by Zenkichi is just a retread of Nanako and Ryotaro's relationship anyway

Black Mask feels stapled on overall. You already know who he is. Why pretend otherwise?
His presence as a detective prince foil to the Phantom Thief should have been the major driving force of the games events. But it's not. It feels like "oh yeah and the mental shutdowns too" gets thrown in every arc at the end in the background like there's a thread there, but there's not much actually going on there between Black Mask and the PT as a unit. You never encounter him and get your asses kicked, increasing the mystery. You never have any contradictions that make you think it could be anyone other than Akechi.

Akechi's confidant is excellent, but it fails to integrate into the main story until literally Akechi 'dies'. Instead of really building him the way they should have, everything falls on to the PT foils father who is the most generic and evil rapist in the entire game. This is the problem with his character. Shido sucks compared to Akechi, and if Akechi had actually killed Shido to take over his enterprise or cause mass hysteria and throw off Yaldabaoth, or trying to replace Shido with a shadow body double or some shit.....you could have gotten really weird and had Black Mask Akechi become more sinister and interesting as a mastermind of events in ways you never saw coming.

Instead, he's no mastermind. Just a mad, sad dog. They had to bring him back in Royal and give him a sendoff in order to cover up for the fact that Black Mask received next to no development.
>>
>>537429412
>Why pretend otherwise?
I think the obviousness of it is meant to distract from Igor being revealed to be evil, like it's so obvious that Akechi is a traitor that you're too busy asking "they're doing this again? really" and not "i wonder if the VA and attitude change mean anything"
But otherwise I mostly agree, he's not great, stapled is a good way of putting it

goro is on their ass in the real world because he is looking for them and keeps tabs on them once he knows who they are. and they try to deny his assumptions about their identities with it eventually leading into him trying to trap them but they outwit him in the end.
and the thread about bm ties into shido/the conspiracy/goro.
>it's obvious
i feel like it's supposed to be because the phantom thieves know he's going to try to kill joker.
so the player/joker knows too.
>shido sucks compared to akechi
i like goro more too but he's my favorite p5 character so...
>akechi actually killed shido
he wanted his approval. goro is a prisoner of his own masks/personas because he wants the approval they bring him.
he contrasts the pt in how he ends up serving someone he hates and empowering a villain like the rest of society. he doesn't properly "rebel" like the pt did until he gives up his life.
he wanted a place to belong like the pt did but he didn't find a group like them to truly accept him for who he is like they did. he's them if they went down the wrong path and found a place to belong with the wrong company.
but let's say he hypothetically does outwit shido and yaldy, how does he still thematically fit as a villain and foil to the pt in your scenario?

and there's also the detail with bm goro putting his mask on in his transformation sequence while the phantom thieves take off their masks in their transformation sequences. but i've seen this mentioned before.
it's just an important detail that goro couldn't bring himself to take off his masks while the phantom thieves could take off theirs because they were able to rise above needing anyone's approval as well as the labels placed on them. they didn't need their masks to hide and try to fit in anymore. and the way society superficially saw them didn't matter anymore to them.
goro's mask doesn't come off until the phantom thieves beat it off of him and it literally breaks.

No because she wasn't on the task force anymore by the point anyone knew she was a girl. There is no time in the narrative to make a fuss of it anymore once the jig is up. She's simply no longer relevant to the police at that point.

because it's just very unclassy to hit on someone so vulgarly. now that i think about it your latter explanation in the first post does fit it. they hit on her vulgarly.

The only reason to mock something for so long and consistently is humanity as a whole knows it'll never change. For this to continue, I see it as a weakness as a society and existence. I'd say brehs should never be mocked for reacting emotionally at discovering something for the first time.

Well that's the answer. It's a dps check fight and on merciless you have a 3x multiplier. The challenge is really only present on hard, if you're on normal you're not going to see it either (unless you're just bad at the game).

do the phantom thieves go too easy on goro? do they get nice too fast considering he just tried to kill them? are they too friendly? it feels like he should have joined sooner and been a party member longer and actually helped them out for how nice they are towards him. but he has antagonized them the whole game and rants about how he's been mistreated and gives them the puppy dog eyes and then they sympathize with him. and yeah it sucks to be a bastard orphan in japan but he was never their friend but they treat him like he was at one point.
it just feels like he should have been an actual party member rather than the guy we all know is up to no good. i feel like it would've hit harder if he was your actual friend instead of your enemy since day one.
