- Why did I play P5R a second time..? One word: Akechi. ....also kinda for Maruki too. This is NG+!
SPOILERS IN VIDEO. I don't recommend watching if you haven't played through the entire game.
It's a mix of both streaming clips and offline recordings since this is more of a personal thing to play through this game another time ;-; I'm finishing up the Confidant stories I never got to finish, get my Platinum Trophy, and focus on a lot of things I just straight up missed in my first playthrough.

But CrystAAHHL, his parents are never home.
Oof
Well, technically, he sees his dad everyday at that point or at least hears him so there's that

STOP 😭😭😭😭😭
JAIL
The reason Goro hates Ren is because of how Ren reacted to his circumstances. Goro and Ren have been screwed over by the same person and have the same reason to hate the world and everyone around them, they were both given the power to make a difference and save others from suffering a same fate OR punishing those who hurt them. Goro chose the latter; he was given the Wild Card, but since he had no one in his life to help him, he awakened to his power, one fueled by hatred and rage. I'm sure to some extent, Goro regrets his actions, but he knows he cannot take back what he did or how far he's come, so he keeps going, assured that he'll get the revenge he feels he deserves. On the other end is Ren: A person who awoke to his power, but, he had people in his life to help him, to keep him on the straight and narrow, besides, it's in his nature to help others (It's the catalyst to the entire game's plot to begin with). Despite everything Ren went through, all the hardships, heartaches, and turmoil, he's a stronger person because of it. He never surrendered to despair, he overcame it and became better, something Goro never did, which is what fascinated him so much and why he enjoyed his time with Ren so much. I'm sure he'd never admit it, but Ren is Goro's best (and only) friend in the entire world, and someone he looks up to greatly, even to the point that he'd die to make sure he would be able to bring down the person they both hated. You wanna know how i know? The night before you send the calling card to Sae, Goro invites you to the jazz club one last time (so he can enjoy his time with you before he's forced to pop a cap in you), when the third semester kicks off, who is the first person Goro goes to for aid? Ren, duh! Hell, when it came to deciding to live in maruki's backwards ass reality, he could have pointed a gun to Ren's head and said " *BITCH, I WON'T LIVE IN THIS FAKE REALITY. YOU BETTER NOT CHOSE THIS OVER THE ONE WE CAME FROM* ", but, he didn't do that because he trusted Ren enough to make the right call, and when the final night comes, and he confirms Ren's choice, i'm sure, deep in his heart, there was a part of him that had sorrow, but at the same time, Goro knew what he had done, who he was, and what needed to be done, and he accepted his fate like a man. He'd rather die with a sword in his hand, saying he was free to choose his own path than live a happy, fake life with his boyfri- i mean, best friend, and that is admirable. Goro himself says to Ren: " *You're the one person i refuse to lose to* ", and he meant that, 100%. He was a person who sought the affection of others, even his own father, who he hated with a passion, but he never got it from anyone, except Ren. When you tell him you're holding on to his glove after that fight, i can only imagine how moved he was, how much that warmed his heart. When he says " *After all this, that's what you have to say?* ", that's when i cried for him, because despite all he put you through, Ren valued him enough to honor the promise they made, showing Goro that there was someone out there who valued him, and , the one thing he wanted most: Acknowledged him. That's all I have to say, Good day!
Dude...who gave you the right to start up the waterworks for the pancake boy 😭
this great analysis makes my day
Top 10 anime couple of all time, no wait THE top anime couple of all time
Amen
The reason Goro hates Joker is because he's rationalizing the choice he's making of choosing his relationship with Shido over his relationship with Joker.
Thoughtbubble did a great video on this (literally a mental health expert), and it's clear that Goro doesn't inherently hate Joker, he made a choice to rationalize breaking off his relationship with Joker, choosing (in his mind) power and freedom over belonging.

I still love that one of the random dreams you can have after choosing to sleep involves akechi in a situation that has clothes fall off
One of them also involves Akechi making him a homecooked meal when he canonically can't cook... :")

Real talk tho, thanks for uploading your P5R streams, they're an absolute delight
I can't catch them live because I work odd hours, so thank you, and thank you for enjoying Royal!
How many were you doing each time she said Akechi lmao
That's a great way to strengthen your body honestly.
Ann is seriously underrated. She's a woman I wish I could be too.
Also, I never noticed Joker just staring at Akechi for almost the entirety of that interaction with Kasumi. Joker's not even hiding he's in love. My god lmao. Thank you for pointing that out lol
The two canon loves IMO, Kasumi/Sumire and Akechi!
@@CrazeeAdam lol well since he looked more at him than her, i'm leaning more towards akechi but hey, we all got our opinions
Wait, he’s interested in me?
...Damn, didn’t wanna shut Akira down like this, but...
I like to think that AkiRen has his bisexual awakening in that scene. AkiRen internally be like:" Help, I having a heart stroke right now and I'm gonna die if I stay here much longer...."
In my vanilla playthrough (back when P5 was released) I romanced Ann. I love how she is so cheerful and laid-back. On top of that she deeply cares for Shiho and you can see how much she suffers because she didn't realise what Shiho was going through
One thing I noted as well in my playthru is that Joker always made a point one way or another that his relationship with his confidants are just deals they made (this is most apparent in kasumi's and Maruki's) but he never even once say that with Akechi. Also in the 4th rank with Akechi, Joker is the one that opens up abt his criminal record instead of akechi asking him abt it. Ryuji had to ask him the first time, so is the time with Yusuke and Makoto (where he visibly have nervous tick by tapping his leg up and down)
Edit: That line Akechi said abt "Since they have special talents, I assume their hearts must be burning with a sense of justice and duty" made me thinks that he thinks that the power to change heart is an inherent skill a Joker have bc he has a strong sense of justice just like how he has an inherent skill to break people with call of chaos bc of his immense rage and hatred. Thats why later, when he confronts you during the school festival and mona explains how to change hearts, he has that sad portrait and said "No one could've figured out that MO..." as in that he couldn't have figured that out himself before. One time during his talk with Sae, I think during fifth palace, he also have an angry portrait and said "If only I'm aware of that kind of power" in jpn idk what he said in english to be exact but that say so much abt how much he regret things (it also fit the lyric of No More What Ifs which is his theme). It was something he would have done to Shido if he could but he's stuck where he is now and he just decided to keep going with his original plan.
Damn straight!
_"The influence of Akechi"s Ass knows no bounds... I underestimate it, honestly."_
Seriously, this line alone is the reason why people pick funny names - just so he could underestimate them...
Like, Pancakes...
_No, but seriously, the influence of Akechi"s Ass seriously has no bounds_
I'm still waiting for someone to name the PTs "canon shuake" so Goro can confirm it himself

2:50 fun fact, the concept of goro and makoto being siblings was tossed around early in development. that would have added a whole new dimension to their rivalry/relationship!
Clementine Kitten Ah, now the red eyes make even more sense. I’m not shocked, tbh, I actually would have liked to see that. Akechi and Sae already have some kind of brother/ sister relationship in a way, which is really cute.
@@thegay3394 sae's role also jumped around a bit in the story, even being imagined as makoto's mother! makoto and goro as children of sae is a fun idea

CrystAAHHL: _DaMn brAT, i'LL sUe!!_
Me: *SUBSCRIBES*
Another point I didn't see anyone make and you didn't say anything about is that Akechi can also be considered a Wildcard. He was given the ability by Yaldy and he has multiple Personas. However, compared to you who made connections which allowed you more than just 2 Personas, he failed to cultivate it. He only has 2 Personas, technically (his 3rd is a fusion of Loki and Robin Hood).
If you think about it, Robin Hood was created solely for the Phantom Thieves, and more directly, for Joker. Just as he was Joker's Confidant, Joker was his Confidant too, but his one and only.
Also, I really like your videos lmao. You're great with the reactions.
For Robin Hood, I'm of the belief that it comes more from his childhood. It's just my view on it, I have no clue, but he grew up wanting to be a hero his mom could be proud of so I don't think it was created for Joker necessarily, but more just a true reflection of how he always wanted to be since he was a lil Goro while wielding his toy gun ;-;
Regardless it's interesting to interpret! I'm glad you like the videos AHH!
@@CrystAAHHL Huh, that could be true too. I didn't think of his childhood.

The theory that Joker is his only confidant makes me so happy and sad at the same time...
The first time I saw Akechi and he was called “pleasant boy” and my first thought was “oh, yes he is, he looks so cute” so seeing that in a replay made me cry with laughter
Man, I was exactly like you when I first played persona 5. I hated Akechi whenever I talked to him especially after he shot me, I saw myself a lot in him and I hated it. And I never truly accepted him even at his death. I still hated him. Royal made me change that opinion since he got a confidant, and I was crying just like you were by the end of it all. This series has called me out in the best way possible. (And now I’m an Akechi kinnie lord save me)
I also see myself in Akechi, but while I do think he is a well-written and interesting character I do not like him because he was not strong enough to rise above his father and instead turned to murdering people. When I was a child, my biggest goal was to not become like my father who made my childhood so miserable. Therefore I don't approve of the road Akechi chose
I actually hated my dad so much, I wanted to frame him for suicide. Granted, my dad was super abusive to me. He married my mother for 2 years only to take custody of me and then leave my mother for a bipolar woman that hated my guts.
@@Kejosruler junpei from p3-
@@Nyabot-mh2zi Hopefully there will be a remaster or remake one day, so I can play it haha
I gotta admit - Akechi might be a character I cannot forgive, but that doesn't mean he isn't deep. His backstory is absolutely eye-opening. It really reveals the web of despair he's been weaved into, and the trauma which morphed him into such a state, unable to reach out. My only reasoning for not really forgiving him is: "Cool Motive, Still Murder."
I don't usually go for joke names, as I usually find the joke runs its course long before the playthrough is over, but I will recognize "Akechi's Ass" is really funny in the context of some of those lines. And maybe fit a little too perfectly.
Also shoutout to you for putting your Akechi thirst aside for a few seconds to recognize Ann being great. She doesn't always gets the respect she deserves, from the fanbase or the game. As much as I love the cast as a whole and find them very entertaining, Ann is definitely the character I would most genuinely want to spend time around in real life. And not even necessarily in the waifu sense. Everyone deserves a friend or companion like Ann.
She has the Megan Fox from transformers problem where because the camera treats her like she has no substance the playerbase doesn't notice she does
Lmao, I also avoid choosing joke names, but I have to say, making Joker 's last name either "Big Dick" or "Choke Me" is hilarious purely because of the fact kasumi will either run around calling you "Big Dick Senpai," or, every time she greets you, she'll suddenly seem like she doesn't know how to hide her kinks in public when she demands you to "Choke Me, Senpai."
Also, if you name yourself "Fuck," Ryuji can finally say "fuck" instead of "eff."
Honestly yeah, Ann (and Ryuji imo) have their flaws but still someone that could be a great friend in real life
@@AdumbroDeus Eh. That's most of the main cast members in P5 I feel. They get their depth and day in the limelight during their main story palace and afterwards, you need to do their confidants to see more of that depth. I do wish more of their characterization and depth was carried into the main story. Still, Ann does get her side arc of getting over her grudge against Makoto. That's more than a lot of the other characters get.
1:15 “I would consider myself more drawn towards detectives”
Kawakami: “Disgust”
(I know she doesn’t actually say Disgust, I just thought it sounded like she said it the first time and thought it was funny)
The legend of goro pancake shall echo through time.
“I just realized how awkward this would be if Mishima was talking to us as if we were the phantom thieves, and like, what if we weren’t?”
*Proceeds to apply this logic to every side character interaction with no concrete evidence of phantom thieves*
it's okay, you can say *Toranosuke Yoshida*
I just love the fact that in every confidant there’s some sort of deal or motive between the protagonist and the confidant. But with Akechi they just generally hang out and have fun with no intention other than to spend time with each other. ❤️
Also, the song that plays at the credits is a song from Joker to Akechi. It’s called Our Light. You should definitely check it out. It made me cry 😭
She watched the lyric video in one of her streams
Wumbe WHEN?? I must see this
Warning: gets a little emotional
Your P5R playthroughs are really the best. This reminded me of that one video where you cried during your boss fight w/ Akechi bc it hit close to home... and then I started crying bc Ik exactly how it feels to want to save and fix someone, but no matter how hard you try, you just can’t.
When you have someone in your life that you can correlate to the situation, it hurts so much more.. It's where my feelings came from in that moment for Akechi and I'm really sorry to hear that you and others go through that too...
Not sure why I wanna share this but it relates; the reason I wear the FMA necklace every day of my life for the past 5 years is because it's a constant reminder to myself to "“Stand up and walk. Keep moving forward. You've got two good legs. So get up and use them. You're strong enough to make your own path."
I'm not good with encouraging messages and words sometimes, but just know you aren't alone and I'm sending you all my positive energy fam
CrystAAHHL damn man... that FMA necklace story is really beautiful, and I can tell that it really REALLY means a lot to you. I’m so happy and... strangely... kinda proud(?) that you have smtg that does that for you. And thank you for the positive energy, you’re so kind. And remember to give yourself most of it! You deserve it.
Damn, she's really simping for Akechi right now, not that I'm complaining tho
One of my favorite persona details is what they name the NPCs.
"Broke-Ass-College Student."
take a shot every time you hear "Akechi" and "pancakes" in this video.
I'm about to cause a mental shutdown
That's like getting hit by Alice's die for Me!
Your comment on the similarities between Makoto and Akechi made me realise something.Akechi has always been my favourite character (even in Vanilla), but Makoto was always a close second. I think it’s because of the theme of loneliness that the game explores through both of their arcs. I feel like I see a part of my younger, teenage self in them, and I think a lot of people can probably relate to that. It’s interesting, because both characters navigate their feelings and experiences in vastly different ways. I really appreciate games that go the extra mile in creating such believable, human characters.
P5 does a good job of showing healthy ways to deal with traumas, alongside the examples of the bad ways.
I just realized why a FeMC for Persona 5 would be complicated, and its the sheer fact that she could seduce Akechi, which would throw one hell of a wrench into things.
Bold of you to assume P5MC didn't seduce akechi but he still went for it.
@aetherial4427 oh you know P5R is literally Dr. M's fanfiction
"Wait, what? Sorry, I was distracted by Akechi." Relatable.
Robbie did a killer job.
Okay...you have GOT to listen to the joker and akechi duet of “your nothing without me”. It’s awesome because not only does it fit perfectly but it’s done by their actual VCs Xander Mobus and Robbie Daymond
10:18 Akechi after 11/20: I guess that practice worked out after all.
11:11 Imagine if Akira were as devastated as Crystaaaahl is in this moment. Like totally destroyed, crying about how Akechi has suffered and how much he wants to make him happy and Ryuji on the other side like: "bro i just wanted to hang out, are you okay?"
5:39 if you think about it, Akechi talks about how he has always felt unwanted. So this dialogue may also show that he resents them because he thought changing people in the Metaverse made him special - yet after meeting the Phantom Thieves he realizes that that power isn't unique to him. It kind of takes away the one thing that made him feel important or needed.
Small detail I didn’t notice until my second playthrough is that everyone except Joker (and I think Maruki) refers to Kasumi as Yoshizawa-san.
I'm pretty sure Maruki calls her Yoshizawa-san too.
well of course. after all everyone still sees her as sumire. if she was called by her first name, it would ruin the plot twist
I noticed that in my first play through. I thought everyone was being formal and polite. Japanese culture and what not.
9:37 Akechis are like onions, they have layers
And they make people cry when they get cut.
I loved the deliberate choice on the devs part to have Akechi refer to Joker by his first name almost exclusively in 3rd semester. I'm glad you're having so much fun spotting all the references and info nuggets in your 2nd playthrough!
Also, Goro's Mementos dialogue with Ann in 3rd semester regarding pancakes is MINT. Definitely check it out on YT if you haven't gotten it yet (plus all the Thieves Den Akechi stuff!)
"he doesn't know my boyfriend is akechi, i LIVE for danger bitch"
oh god that killed me 💀
Ann is SO UNDERRATED I AGREE WHOLEHEARTEDLY. Great P5R playthrough! I can’t wait to see more of your P4G play through!
You mentioned how Makoto and Akechi are similar, which is true, but I don't think it's just Makoto. I think Akechi takes bits and pieces of each Phantom Thief and their hardships, personality, and such and incorporates them into his own character. While Akechi is Joker's dark mirror, I think he fulfills that role in a way for each individual party member as well.
Interesting! How so?
@@Swishyhead Late reply, but Akechi's backstory is a combination of every phantom thief
Joker- life was ruined because of Shido
Ryuji- had a deadbeat dad who abandoned his mom
Ann- someone she loves attempted suicide because of an abusive man
Yusuke- father figure exploited his talents to further his selfish ambitions
Makoto- being used by corrupt adults
Futaba- feels responsible for her mom's death and was manipulated by government/researchers because of it
Haru- abused and used by her father
Kasumi- felt inferior to her sister and tried to change her entire personality to make people like her more
Akechi is the story's ultimate victim because he's severely underprivileged compared to all of them. They all went through hardships but none to the degree that Akechi did. Like, they all had some sort of support system. He mirrors the phantom thieves because he's what they all could've been if they didn't get saved in time.
3:38 There's a guy who did a reaction/analysis of Maruki as a counsellor and he detailed not only his councilling techniques but how Maruki dropped his techniques in order to foreshadow and push his agenda
10:18 so are we gonna talk about how his one hand was relaxed when he talked about taking joker out but was clenched when he said he was joking the very next line?
"My parents aren't home."
Well, you're not wrong...
YOU DIDN’T-
Ryuji: Hey, where are you at?
Crystl: *cring* he doesn't want this~
Ryuji: ehm...Dude, are you ok?
Crystl: I'M IN A GLASSCATCH OF EMOTIONS!!! ;^;
There are two kinds of people in the world: the members of "Akechi's Ass" and the members of "Ryuji Lovers"
Akira to Akechi at the cafe with kasumi: can we please ditch Kasumi, She's standing in the way of me looking into those luscious eyes.
We need more pancakes in these comments
I love how the class lessons reflect the plot, characters and themes of the game. It can give more insight.
So during the whole Akechi, Kasumi and Joker scene. I was checking out Kasumi while joker was checking out Akechi. Damn, we are seriously not on the page
This video is a serious callout because this is exactly how i acted while going through P5R and im really happy im not the only one aaa
13:28 dang, the translations can be so different... here it’s “you have the others” in the german translation it’s basically “you have us”, as in us the whole group... the english one is a lot colder imo :
I wish it said "you have us" and not "you have others" because it sounds like joker is not including himself and it just sounds cold.
Zobo Zo exactly! when I saw it just now, I was super sad... like joker, you’re part of the group! don’t talk like you won’t support her anymore... :
@@V1G4M1 ikr! ugh, the localization translation has a lot of bad translations. i can't believe that wasn't fixed
I think people are misunderstanding thr relationship between Joker and Akechi. There is an hidden undercurrent with them. It isn't some pure friendship. Their friendship is one of rivalry. They can't stand the idea of being less than each other. Yes, this leads to a very genuine friendship. But what motivates these interactions are these intense feelings of jealousy over each others talents. Each wants to best the other. That is the deal between them. To compete against each other. Which does make me think if a gay relationship was available it would have to be Akechi. Seriously, the tension is so high between them.
rivalries ? romance ? what is the difference tbh
Akechis comment happened the 6/9
They knew what they were doing
You have by far been my favorite streamer to watch react to this game - the genuine reactions and immersion in the story really really made me enjoy going through the story again so thank you!!
The original P5 gives an abrupt closure on Akechi by killing him off in Shido's palace. I was annoyed and sad that about that. I love for the fact that they opened up more on Akechi and let us look at his psychotic smart ass agressive side in the maruki dungeon.
12:16 ah, she saw the line. Perfection
CrystAAHHL: AKECHIIIIII
Shenpai: omg the therapist looks so Hot
The thirst of akechi's ass, the shipping, and then the sobbing over his story is such a mood lol
Early KrystAAHHL: really, Akechi?

Thank you for your channel! I have binging your P5R reactions and am LIVING for the Akechi moments.
I'm still in such pain over Akechi, so finding your videos and seeing your reactions is such a balm to the wound on my soul. Thank you so much 😭
I found someone who likes Akechi more than me... Impressive
i love this video in every shape and form hands down
ALL MY RESPECT TO YOU
Another interesting detail with Akechi giving his full name to Joker : Since he knows they are the phantom thieves, and he uses the nav, he should also know that you need someone's full name to find it. Was it a subdle cry for help?
Hey I know this video doesn't cover this, but do you think Jose's star has run out because Joker wished for Akechi to return and that's why we see him in the post-credits scene? He wished the promise to be kept, exhausting the star
I'm so emotional about that boi
They explained it as for Morgana to turn into a helicopter, but your scenario is very plausible and really makes you melt.
I sub to you for your love of this game and how it resonates with me, and it just got better watching your arc with Akechi. It is so well written
I got finished playing Persona 5 Royal for the first time this evening, and I just found your channel at the same time! I love this game and your channel! Thank you for posting your reactions in a playlist! :D
(Also Akechi is incredible for sure! The development of his character is 100% than what was presented in the original game. Devs did an amazing job.
idk why imagining crystaahhl as joker - like joker is the one yelling about akechis ass and being on to his plans - is so entertaining to me lmao
Yup, it's only through meeting and talking with Joker that Maruki does his thing. That's why you have to get Maruki to rank 10 to get third semester.
your akechi love hate to love relationship lives in my head rent free and now this man is all i think about
I just want to give you the biggest hug!!! I adore all your insight on mah boi Akechi so much.
The fact that everyone's third awakening takes place in their homes but Akechi's takes place in Leblanc destroys me
I didn’t even know it was possible for someone to simp just as hard for Goro as I have.... it’s quite intriguing, actually. Sorry, but Goro’s mine! I’ll fight you for him!
You're going to have to fight joker for him lmao
@@zobozo5059 That nerd? I can kick his attic dwelling ass anyday!
You're having such a good time and it's pretty fun to watch!
You are just me back when P5 came out and I don't like being called out so hard
Akechi didn't even had a fucking Confidant back then but this is literally me loading my best friend with my love and appreciation for his characters
THAT'S MY SON AND JOKER'S BF
Also fact, Ann and Shiho are Girlfriends
I named my group Goro Akechi, so that Goro Akechi will say that the Goro Akechi is unjust

I really like this line, and then what you said afterwards. "Joker is his home."
To quote a great work, "Besides… I always thought ‘home’ was something you take with you, not somewhere you go.” [...] "Or someone."
Oh Shit. I did not expect to see a NG+ playthrough of this, I'm glad there is one because these videos are amusing and hilarious, that it's worth coming here everytime (mostly for Royal gameplay). Also good job on trying to give everyone screentime (Especially Kasumi).
Also now that I think of it, I never paid attention to it, but Akechi and Joker do have a strange bond like as if they were meant to be best friends.
omg i just love how you love akechi .... it´s so precious
Always nice to see somebody who loves Akechi too.
2:03 "Brat Damn, sue I'll!"
"Dan, I'll sue mart! B"
omg!! second playthrough of akechi's dating simulator!!!!!!
Ah yes, to quote an awesome P5 chatfic I closely follow, welcome to the Inspector Asswipe Thirst Party. We have free pancakes at the door.
Also, fun fact: when you mentioned how Makoto and Akechi look kind of similar, I laughed because I'm fairly certain in early development they were meant to be siblings.
Btw, this vid made me like Akechi 1,000 times more. Nice analysis!
Will you do highlights for the P4G playthrough? Loved the P5R vids!
i second this
starting with my next upload in 6 days, they will be P4G highlights, yes!
@@CrystAAHHL Thank you for the fast reply :)
CrystAAHHL YEEEESSSS
@@CrystAAHHL AMAZING! Looking forward to watching those after I played and finished P4G myself
i just found you because i was looking for a complete play through by a funny youtuber since kubz scouts never finished it. i regret nothing. i love you.
What if Akechi told joker his real name because deep down, he wanted his heart to be changed
I love how you unravel Maruki’s words and intentions here! It’s really cool
I love watching your videos! You just get so passionate and involved with the story and characters - it's great to watch.
Okay Crys, if you haven't heard Akechi's cut navigation lines from Sae's Palace. When he's Princechi, he really tries to not lose his cool if you're fucking around.
First video I've seen of yours and I'm giggling so much (not far into the game myself I'm a small 41 hours in) your hilarious
