MurphThaSmurf i already know that, it’s not about spoiling the twist tho, it’s because Akechi knows that joker will probably not believe him about something like that easily, so he waited for it, he even hinted it more than once for joker along the way.
@@Mikura39 You'd be concerned if you lost another thing to throw at the enemy. He doesn't personally like any of the Phantom Thieves minus maybe Joker.

"Tell me how much it hurts", "Joker's enraged I kinda like it," and now "fall before your masters". Akechi is there something you'd like to share with the rest of us?
literally the entirety of his navi lines are: -yelling -being semi-concerned for Sumi -flirting with Joker -things that could definitely be taken out of context
That's honestly how I felt when Mona's task was replaced by Futaba. Not that I wanted to have Morgana say that for the entire game, just to switch them around every now and then.
They way he talks to Kasumi sounds too polite to call it caring tbh, reminds me more of how he talked to every adult before and the phantom thieves in sae's palace.
Wada, from the P5R Guidebook "(...)Akechi deep down in his heart doesn't give a damn about Sumire (...) It's an interesting period in the story where he seems to be like 'Whatever...' to anyone other than Joker"
Yesyes, remember that scene when Akechi came to our cafe in the third Semester and he stroke a deal with Joker to partner up in order to find out what is happening and why dead people suddenly got resurrected. And we can tell that Akechi's tone and attitude has changed very much, it isn't him being all fake anymore. And then when we go to meet Sumi because she spotted a palace, Akechi's tone changed again and it was his fake politeness act. We even see his portrait change back into the deceitful "happy" Akechi, which is I think a really cool detail. I remember the immediate weird whiplash I felt during that. (Also sorry if I didn't explain that too well)
Atlus is really great at introducing a cool concept we didn’t think we needed then they just take it right back. Wish there was a way to have Futaba and Akechi both navigate
Personally I think he acknowledges her inexperience, so he doesn't have as high of expectations. Also I think anyone who reads the comments can agree Akechi was flirting with our boy Joker.
Somehow, Yoshizawa fell under all of those status effects during the story in this Palace. Got dizzy and missed all her enemies on 1/2, then got confused by her sister's cognition, scared to death by the revelation, then got put to sleep until 1/9, got brainwashed by the enemy, fell into depression because Joker-senpai didn't accept new reality, then forgot how to use her persona on 1/12. Poor girl...
To anyone wondering if Akechi cares about Kasumi, it has been stated that from the bottom of his heart that he does not care about her whatsoever, and views her purely as a teammate. In fact, you could say the very opposite for how he views Joker.
@@strawbs6354 I remember him calling Futaba “Futaba-chan” when they first met. She and sumi are the same age. Is there something behind the scenes that we don’t know?
I really want to see his lines when he gets inflicted by ailments or just talking “so this is fear” “aren’t you the leader” when you take too long to choose skill
i love how he goes like "CAN ANYONE PUT HER OUT" and "SOMEBODY HELP HER" as if there's more than 2 other people in the group, like if the group was bigger it'd be totally normal but in this context he's 100% just vagueing joker
It's so weird. Hes damn near pleasant and nice outside of battle, is respectful to Yoshizawa even when in battle...makes me wish akechi still narrated battles even with futaba around
Probably because she‘s the rookie in their trio and as the navigator he kind of has to play the advisor/mentor role. And since Akechiis Akechi he just can’t be nice about it
@@Apanovi I get that, it's just funny, because, some of his lines sound like a parent that left the kid alone with someone else for the first time and they got into something "Yoshizawa-san! Wasn't anyone paying attention to her!?"
I like how in royal when akechi reveals his true self he’s not only a lot more sinister but you can see that the other thrives are a little scared of him
I've seen a lot of comments stating that Akechi doesn't give a shit about Sumi, but I think it should be left up to interpretation. (We all played Royal so no need to spoiler warn also DO NOT assume I ship Akechi and Sumi that's weird we all know that Joker is his true bae) In the part where we fight corrupted Cendrillon, Akechi voluntarily removes himself from the fight. Considering how much Akechi likes fighting that's a bold move on his part. Maybe it was for Joker's sake, but there are factors that may indeed point to Akechi caring about her. The biggest example I can give for that is some of their first interactions with the rest of the Phantom Thieves. The group is extremely hostile and wary of him, except for Joker and Sumi even after knowing context. Then there's the animated cutscene after the Adam Kadamon fight in which he stops her from running to her death. If it was any of the others, I don't think he would've been the one to interject (maybe it was just to give him animated screentime who knows lol). I also have the belief that Akechi can find sympathy for Sumi since she was being puppeteered by a greater force, something that he can relate to. My last reason is that despite seeing his true nature (which we all adore), it doesn't visibly phase her. It's a little weird since Haru scares Sumi, yet she dismisses Crow's sadistic shit and I find that hilarious. I see Akechi and Sumi's standing to be kind of working scenario where Sumi is the new employee and seasoned Akechi was asked by his boss to show her the basics and monitor her. Most of her commentary probably does annoy him to be fair, but out of the group besides Joker I think she annoys him the least (Also Sumi has the most emotional reaction to Akechi disappearing after reality gets restored just saying). This is super long and I'm done now lol

Forever loving that "just everyday Akechi" is respectful enough to call her "Yoshizawa-san" every time.
Or that they wouldn't have to change her name in the voice lines

Yeah, me too. Best nav in all of persona
That's honestly how I felt when Mona's task was replaced by Futaba. Not that I wanted to have Morgana say that for the entire game, just to switch them around every now and then.
“Skull missed! You stupid bastard!!”
“Now’s no time for a catnap, Mona! Someone wake him!”
Randomizing the Navi between Futaba, Akechi, Makoto, and Mona would make Mona SO much less annoying, and SO much more likeable.

You know, when Akechi said he was gonna show his true side, I didn't think he was gonna be _THIS_ open about himself.
I like how Akechi can sense safe rooms like Morgana
Navi powers.
Or detective intuition
He had to go through Palaces somehow.
Starfire★Uchiha i mean he explored palaces on his own so
