@@hoarauthomas1006 It would have been as easy as just inserting a boolean at the beginning: "Do you have a girlfriend?" followed by the options: Yes, (Futaba, Sumire, Haru, Ann, Makoto).
A headcanon I have is where the protagonist and his girlfriend decided to keep their relationship a secret for a bit. It is is fitting for someone like Futaba or Makoto who could've made the request out of shyness.

The ambiguous "person I love" could also be Joker referring to someone like Tae or any of the adults for it would be pretty obvious why one would keep that a secret.

@@thatoneguy5343 Regular P5 continuity. dancing in starlight was before Royal so no Kasumi at that point so yeah it's possible since Royal that she is the closest to Ren but Dancing in Starlight pretty much confirmed that Futaba has Romantic feelings for Ren and Makoto was suggested to have some feelings for Ren but if we add P5 royal to the Mix I'd Guess It'd be Kasumi and Futaba as Kasumi straight up says she loves Ren And In Dancing in Starlight Futaba Gives a round about confession knowing that no one including Herself and Ren will remember what transpired. so yes Kasumi would be likely be the highest possibility followed by Futaba as in Royal Futaba also has a round about confession to Ren which can be cancelled out if you pursue another romance route. But one thing for sure is Ren is a lucky dude Both Kasumi And Futaba like him
@@wolfder6661 Personally, I view Joker and Futaba having more of a sibling dynamic given they’re both under the care of Sojiro. Regarding Yoshizawa, like you said she’s more likely, and her ultimate persona is literally one in a wedding dress who is Cinderella who also has her own prince charming. The symbolism of Yoshizawa being paired with Cinderella as her persona along with her Metaverse attire being very akin to Joker’s pretty much makes her the semi/pseudo canon girlfriend.
@@thatoneguy5343 a lot of people do see Futaba and Ren as Siblings but forget that they're not as Ren eventually leaves and Goes back to his parents in the epilogue. Personally I myself See Ren and Makoto more so as Siblings then Ren and Futaba but that's my personal experience. presides We allready Know That Ren And Yu Narukami are the protag bros😂😂 Atlus even joked about it themselves
True, gotta give Sumire props for shooting first for a love confession before Ren could say anything first! Usually it’s the other way around lol. Makes accepting her love confession all the more sweeter. Although I gotta give major respect for Sumi for taking the potential rejection with grace with wanting to get her feelings out there and to still be great friends afterwards.
And this is why I wish the player could've taken P5s data into consideration for the sake of it being clear or at that point the player basically confirms who they picked in the previous game. If the player went the harem route then that'd be a different and interesting ballpark that wouldn't be good for Joker lol.
Good thing Ren didn’t get knocked out by some jealous girls. Oh wait that actually did happen if some of you fools chose the harem route in P5 and P5R on Valentines Day. Can’t have them all sadly lol
Wondered if the girls are still pissed from the time Joker dated all of them & ended up getting beaten up in LeBlanc by then, assuming the Harem Valentine Day was cannon here (cuz it was cannon in the animated series)?
@@jakeriese4862 What do you mean? If you're asking why I would pick Ann, it's mainly because I find her to be the most relatable Phantom Thief. Like her, I had to travel a lot when I was young because of my parents work, and when I got older I felt isolated and had only one friend who'm I've now know for the most of my life and who still means a lot to me. So, while I experienced different kind of problems due to these things than she did, I was still able to understand her on a more personal level. Plus, I find her to be cute both in looks and personality.
I really hope they gave you a option to get savefiles from previews entry so the "vague" nature is remove. you build a relation just to be wipe out on the next day like its nothing , I NEED TO CALL MY DOCTORRRRRR ATLUSSSSS.
Headcanon: The girls want to find out who Joker's referring to. Joker, the unlucky son of a bitch that he is in love, stepped on that landmine HARD. So as they pressure him to explain... he ducks out by running with an excuse. Reason being? He fell for ALL their charms: Ann's caring attitude, Makoto's charm, Futaba's innocence and adorableness, and Haru's sweet and elegant air. The problem is, choosing one girl would make the others sad, so the poor bastard can't just pick... It's unfair to the others. And god help him, he's no two-timing punk, he's a good boy who's mother certainly didn't terrify him with the idea that cheaters were scum.
You and I seem to share the same idea when it comes to Joker, he has the idea that his heart is for his "special one". But being that he fell for ALL of the Phantom girls (Violet too if Royal is counted, and maybe the women outside the PTs), the poor man can't figure out what or who he truly wants. And on the off chance he went the harem route, he feels like he screwed everything up. And that he'll be lonely for the rest of his life, with Joker himself believing in the idea that he's some kind of player, cheater, liar, and an "actor" with no feelings (refers to the many masks he wears when he gains a Persona). EDIT: And even if he _didn't_ screw up and go for a harem, he still feels bad.
@@dalekrenegade2596 This my first thought too ...that sister vibe but, the more I spend time with futaba that feeling fade away. She's freking adowable!
No love for the Shogi queen? Hifumi's intelligent, bombastic when playing a game, and outrageously beautiful (especially in the OVA). Sad to see her not in Strikers, but here's to hoping Hifumi returns as a full playable member in the next P5 game.
@@monaqq While I too believe Persona 6 will be it's own thing with it's own characters and story, as previous mainline games have done, I am really hoping Mishima's book on the Phantom Thieves he said he'd be writing will appear at the school library in Persona 6 as some kind of easter egg. I know each game take place in the same universe, from what I've been told but I still wonder exactly how much of the whole world knew about the thieves. I just remember someone in their group mentioned how people outside of Japan knew of their existence. I know there's a poster of Rise found in the subway during any playthrough of Persona 5 and even though it doesn't show her name on it, I know with these games the characters the player spends time with are always distinct and very different looking compared to all other characters in the game. Basically what I meant by distinct is not only exactly how it sounded but I also meant there's really never another character in the world that like anything like the more focused-on characters. Though I know it was really just a reference is all. Oh! I apologize for my rambling! This happens a lot especially when I'm talking about the things I like, so it's why I'm apologizing. EDIT: My apologies! This reply was originally super short but then I went into a lot of detail as to why I'd want to see Mishima's book as some kind of easter egg in persona6 and I went overboard with this wall of text.
"Well, who do you love?" Well considering when Maruki fucked with reality and gave us all what we most wanted and Akechi showed up.... -all the girls look at Joker- You guys all know the sexual tension with Akechi was present after a while. -_-
Ann or Makoto all the way. Don't get me wrong. I love the other woman too but Ann and Makoto feels like they will try everything to win the love for you
I'm still somewhat annoyed that this so-called sequel basically retconned the bonds with teammstes and other confidants made in Persona 5. Strong true personas achieved through forging real bonds and defeating a god? Nope, let's downgrade them back like nothing happened. Your confidants fighting for you to create you a positive image while you are stuck in jail? Guess the populace have a short memory and the Internet remembers nothing. Also, what a huge wasted opportunity to answer the girls about previously romanced confidants, especially the older women. Or having Sophie saying something like the affectionate woman that called you not long ago, the one named ..., is she the one you love?
Dude wtf, all the confidants in the game are not canon they are just content for the game, but of course u persona fans don't know that because u just play the game blindly thinking everything is canon to the game, and this is a different genre all about there journey trip across Japan and an action game, and there are already Forged bond with there each that didn't go which that why they have this road trip that they are best friends through out the experience
@@john_7000 Yes, the confidants are the content, but they are a substantial part of the content, which made Persona 5 so attractive as a game. That is why the lack of, at least, references to the characters, who played an important role in helping the Phantom Thiefes to defeat a god, makes the game, for me personally, lacking storywise. Also, yes, they already have strong bonds with one another. But if that is the case, why did their personas got downgraded to their original selves like at the start of Persona 5? The emotional growth seized to exist after half a year? Or should we assume the team defeated the true enemy of Persona 5 without Joker achieving maximum bonds with his friends in the previous game? And another thing, are there many people who went through the game without romancing anyone? I mean, the fact of Joker not romancing anyone in the previous game, as presented in this sequel, is ok. That is one of the possible outcomes. But, for me personally, at least, the lack of an option to transfer the relationships with a character from the previous game to the sequel is a serious drawback and quite the missed opportunity. Because after Persona 3 I just cannot imagine a Persona game without at least a bit of romantic content. P.S. By the populace and the Internet I meant the in-game ones, not the real-life people.
@@yagirlmayalazarus6713 Are you talking about Arena? But is that a true sequel to Persona 4? Nevertheless, I still think that reverting personas back to their originals is not a good move story-wise.
@@ДмитрийШапошников-к8ч It's in all P4 spinoffs. P4 Dancing, Arena, and Ultimax. I mean I don't think it's that bad considering getting those Personas are related to a significant growth in character. Plus it would be pretty crazy to let Joker keep Sataneal and Narukami keep Izanagi No Okami since they would realistically stomp through everything.

You know what’s funny is in high school hangout with friends they’d put you on the spot to admit who you would hangout with if ever on date haha
She does have red hair…
But not the one you might think…
2:37 ur welcome.
I had ptsd flashbacks of valentine day in the previous game when I saw all of ‘em lookin at him that way
Joker.... RUN!
Like he could ever outrun Makoto and Johanna lmao
With Morgana help yes time to go Morganacopter !!!
@@Rubhen925 but he can go up
@@hoarauthomas1006 Futaba chases him with Necronomicon/Prometheus/Al Azif.
He drops the bomb that it's Yusuke
Sae is easily my choice
Her sis is better
@@jamesdarr2525 oh I get the reference
Imagine saying that to makoto ^^'
Kinda wish they have the ability to scan p5r save file to know who you romanced.
Canonically different timelines like p3 and p3p
the correct answer in this situation is: my mom!
every good boy loves their mother. the girls will probably buy that.... right?
Joker: I'm all I need 💅✨
Look on the bright side at least he didn't get beat up
The girls weren't ready for him to say Kawakami.
Akiren:I love you and all you guys
Good thing Ren didn’t get knocked out by some jealous girls. Oh wait that actually did happen if some of you fools chose the harem route in P5 and P5R on Valentines Day. Can’t have them all sadly lol
He can't catch em all
@@Unknown-xo7td lol Pokemon reference ftw
He can sojuro safe his ass lol
Wait they seriously knock him out?!
@@waynejacobs5092 , yup.
Wondered if the girls are still pissed from the time Joker dated all of them & ended up getting beaten up in LeBlanc by then, assuming the Harem Valentine Day was cannon here (cuz it was cannon in the animated series)?
Well Sojiro managed to convince them of misunderstanding & they don’t hate him.
Well Lavenza did do something that none of the 4 counting Sumire is she seemingly confess to Joker.
Honestly, I like all of them (you can probably guess how that ended up). But if I'd have to choose I'd probably go with Ann.
How come
@@jakeriese4862 What do you mean? If you're asking why I would pick Ann, it's mainly because I find her to be the most relatable Phantom Thief. Like her, I had to travel a lot when I was young because of my parents work, and when I got older I felt isolated and had only one friend who'm I've now know for the most of my life and who still means a lot to me. So, while I experienced different kind of problems due to these things than she did, I was still able to understand her on a more personal level. Plus, I find her to be cute both in looks and personality.
@@JB-ci8fc Ann fits Joker the best, imo.
@@DJ-yo9oi Yeah, and that scene the day they met in the original game, it was a powerful scene it stayed with me.
@@DJ-yo9oi ann is canon in this time line bc strikers takes place on the original persona 5 game and it give u some hints that ann really loves joker
I really wish one of the options was ryuji. That would be so funny lol
"Yeah... Thanks Sophia... 💧"
I really hope they gave you a option to get savefiles from previews entry so the "vague" nature is remove.
you build a relation just to be wipe out on the next day like its nothing , I NEED TO CALL MY DOCTORRRRRR ATLUSSSSS.
Headcanon:
The girls want to find out who Joker's referring to. Joker, the unlucky son of a bitch that he is in love, stepped on that landmine HARD. So as they pressure him to explain... he ducks out by running with an excuse. Reason being? He fell for ALL their charms: Ann's caring attitude, Makoto's charm, Futaba's innocence and adorableness, and Haru's sweet and elegant air. The problem is, choosing one girl would make the others sad, so the poor bastard can't just pick... It's unfair to the others. And god help him, he's no two-timing punk, he's a good boy who's mother certainly didn't terrify him with the idea that cheaters were scum.
You and I seem to share the same idea when it comes to Joker, he has the idea that his heart is for his "special one". But being that he fell for ALL of the Phantom girls (Violet too if Royal is counted, and maybe the women outside the PTs), the poor man can't figure out what or who he truly wants. And on the off chance he went the harem route, he feels like he screwed everything up. And that he'll be lonely for the rest of his life, with Joker himself believing in the idea that he's some kind of player, cheater, liar, and an "actor" with no feelings (refers to the many masks he wears when he gains a Persona).
EDIT: And even if he _didn't_ screw up and go for a harem, he still feels bad.
@@onetimetonio3807Jesus. Joker needs a lot of therapy
Mine is either Futaba or Kasumi/Sumire or both of them. I like to ship Akira(P5MC) with Futaba and Kasumi/Sumire & Ryuji with Ann.
Same honestly
After watching Royal I do think Sumire is my new fav.
Yeah I agree
@@marychen4635 how come
Ann doesn't think that way about Ryuji mine just Ann
I’d pick futaba without hesitation but that sadly isn’t an option in this game
OHHHHHH
come on game that was a great opportunity to say who u truly love
I love futaba
For me it's Futaba. She's funny, cute, and smart. I wouldn't mind spending some time with her. ❤️
Same here!
@@MichaelaAquilina She is best girl^^
Too much little sister vibes for an actually romance. Not like the game would let me finish leveling up her confidant anyway. ☹️
@@dalekrenegade2596 This my first thought too ...that sister vibe but, the more I spend time with futaba that feeling fade away. She's freking adowable!
Futaba. Sorry but she's fucking adorable. 10/10 best Persona waifu
Just one thing! Futaba supremacy 🛐🛐🛐
My is Sumire, hands down!!! Okay, I can't help myself to act like a bonehead, but it was fun doing like this.
Yo sumire is the best
Joker: What if I told you that my girlfriend is not in this universe?
@@regnal-joestar1967 yea
Ann is best girl
makoto looking like she is going in for the kill
No competition just makoto(!)
My man
@@asiananimeboy4663 the scientist lady is pretty cute too thought
I see i gonna check her out for research purposes
@@asiananimeboy4663 indeed so do I! We all need her credible and solid thesis (of her privates)
Makoto best girl
No love for the Shogi queen? Hifumi's intelligent, bombastic when playing a game, and outrageously beautiful (especially in the OVA).
Sad to see her not in Strikers, but here's to hoping Hifumi returns as a full playable member in the next P5 game.
I hope they do make another P5 game or at least have P6 be like a time skip sequel that could possibly carry over the choices we made in Royal....
I liked Hifumi too....
but remember she aint real
@@sovninja It ain't gonna happen, at least it's very very unlikely. P6 will probably be it's own thing with a new protag and new ppl
@@monaqq While I too believe Persona 6 will be it's own thing with it's own characters and story, as previous mainline games have done, I am really hoping Mishima's book on the Phantom Thieves he said he'd be writing will appear at the school library in Persona 6 as some kind of easter egg. I know each game take place in the same universe, from what I've been told but I still wonder exactly how much of the whole world knew about the thieves. I just remember someone in their group mentioned how people outside of Japan knew of their existence.
I know there's a poster of Rise found in the subway during any playthrough of Persona 5 and even though it doesn't show her name on it, I know with these games the characters the player spends time with are always distinct and very different looking compared to all other characters in the game. Basically what I meant by distinct is not only exactly how it sounded but I also meant there's really never another character in the world that like anything like the more focused-on characters. Though I know it was really just a reference is all.
Oh! I apologize for my rambling! This happens a lot especially when I'm talking about the things I like, so it's why I'm apologizing.
EDIT: My apologies! This reply was originally super short but then I went into a lot of detail as to why I'd want to see Mishima's book as some kind of easter egg in persona6 and I went overboard with this wall of text.
*SOPHIA KNEW WHAT SHE WAS DOING*
so all the girls get heated when it comes to Joker love, they get heated or heated?
Of the 4 girls here, I would choose Haru. If I had the option to choose from the others, then it would be Takemi.
An exciting chat, is that what it’s called?😂😂😂
Should've had the option of "My Mom" or something similar.
I am disappointed there was no option to say he loves all four of them
Ann : it’s none of us ?
Joker : no also yes, i love all of u guys
The girls should know who the one is after Valentines Day...no matter what happend then.
Anne is crazy hot. Perfect character design.
Joker: Girls please my boyfried is dead I'm trying to move on😔
You can tell the original writers didn't touch this game
Sophia you nasty bi-
*morgana then got cancelled for swears*
Well of course he would bring Sae, it's pretty obvious
Ok guys everyone knows the only true waifu is morgana prove me wrong
"Well, who do you love?"
Well considering when Maruki fucked with reality and gave us all what we most wanted and Akechi showed up....
-all the girls look at Joker-
You guys all know the sexual tension with Akechi was present after a while. -_-
As a egalitarian. There is only one option, love them all.
At least it ain't Valentine's Day
Sofia unintentionally increased the atmosphere in the room
Man I choose Tae in both Persona 5 vanilla and Royal. I can imagine the scene already.
Ann or Makoto all the way. Don't get me wrong. I love the other woman too but Ann and Makoto feels like they will try everything to win the love for you
Hoo Boy.
I’d be scared to death if that were to happen! 😅
Got with Futaba in P5 and P5R so she should still be my gf in Strikers.
I brought the boys for this one. Dont choose em often but they give the most entertainment during cutscenes haha
I'm still somewhat annoyed that this so-called sequel basically retconned the bonds with teammstes and other confidants made in Persona 5. Strong true personas achieved through forging real bonds and defeating a god? Nope, let's downgrade them back like nothing happened. Your confidants fighting for you to create you a positive image while you are stuck in jail? Guess the populace have a short memory and the Internet remembers nothing. Also, what a huge wasted opportunity to answer the girls about previously romanced confidants, especially the older women. Or having Sophie saying something like the affectionate woman that called you not long ago, the one named ..., is she the one you love?
Dude wtf, all the confidants in the game are not canon they are just content for the game, but of course u persona fans don't know that because u just play the game blindly thinking everything is canon to the game, and this is a different genre all about there journey trip across Japan and an action game, and there are already Forged bond with there each that didn't go which that why they have this road trip that they are best friends through out the experience
@@john_7000 Yes, the confidants are the content, but they are a substantial part of the content, which made Persona 5 so attractive as a game. That is why the lack of, at least, references to the characters, who played an important role in helping the Phantom Thiefes to defeat a god, makes the game, for me personally, lacking storywise. Also, yes, they already have strong bonds with one another. But if that is the case, why did their personas got downgraded to their original selves like at the start of Persona 5? The emotional growth seized to exist after half a year? Or should we assume the team defeated the true enemy of Persona 5 without Joker achieving maximum bonds with his friends in the previous game? And another thing, are there many people who went through the game without romancing anyone? I mean, the fact of Joker not romancing anyone in the previous game, as presented in this sequel, is ok. That is one of the possible outcomes. But, for me personally, at least, the lack of an option to transfer the relationships with a character from the previous game to the sequel is a serious drawback and quite the missed opportunity. Because after Persona 3 I just cannot imagine a Persona game without at least a bit of romantic content.
P.S. By the populace and the Internet I meant the in-game ones, not the real-life people.
I mean that happened to P4 too. Clearly after getting rid of Midnight Channel/Metaverse, their Personas reverted back to their normal state.
@@yagirlmayalazarus6713 Are you talking about Arena? But is that a true sequel to Persona 4? Nevertheless, I still think that reverting personas back to their originals is not a good move story-wise.
@@ДмитрийШапошников-к8ч It's in all P4 spinoffs. P4 Dancing, Arena, and Ultimax. I mean I don't think it's that bad considering getting those Personas are related to a significant growth in character. Plus it would be pretty crazy to let Joker keep Sataneal and Narukami keep Izanagi No Okami since they would realistically stomp through everything.
