First thing Joker does after he can speak freely:
Dancing in Starlight happened first, but I suppose... lol
"YOU ARE SO THICK YOU-"
After achieving the will to speak freely, the the first thing Joker does is diss Akechi.... He's got his priorities straight.
*how does he have such a good voice*
The chains of restriction from Atlus have been broken.
Altus=Yaldabaoth/Maruki
Guys you're supposed to be stealing hearts not stealing the show.
Arya the Schattig smooth
I'm sure they stole plenty of hearts with this show 💞
nah, that's where you're wrong. they stole the show AND hundreds of peoples' hearts.
hoooooo weeeee damn that was *woooooo*
why not both
Their relationship is essentially
"See you in hell"
"Is that a date?"
best description of their relationship.
@@kiraelin lol thanks
well, y e s
Hey I saw fanart of that
@@amiinkles seriously? I feel like im missing out now!
Akechi didn’t die, he started a broadway career.
The whole death was just an elaborate performance
@@creampuff_animates_owo Akechi: My death was greatly exaggerated
This feels like the "going kayaking" meme from the magnus archives audio drama.
@@chukyuniquloh my god a Magnus reference in the wild
This just proves that Akechi is actually a Marvel character... After death, he gets better..😁😁😉🤣😅
Akechi: I hate you
also Akechi: you up for darts tomorrow?
*Sure*
it's just the way the game is
Everyone: Akechi noo dont play the hardest level in darts!!!
Akechi: haha 701 go *brrrrrr*
Akechi: God I hate you.
Also Akechi: but he is the only one who'll tolerate me
yep
This is canon, now, guys
It is
IT IS CANON
@@Samsishere screw you its canon
@@Samsishere 👁👄👁
@@Samsishere Atlus didn't say it, they demonstrated ShuAke.
This is further proof to me that Joker and Akechi are theater kids at heart
I’m not entirely certain about Akechi but Joker was definitely a theatre kid back home. Only reason he isn’t in-game is because Shujin doesn’t seem to have a drama club and they wouldn’t let him join if it did.
I have a head canon that Akechi probably saw a musical once with his mum and never forgot it just so that they could be drama kids together. Sad that there wasn’t any drama clubs in shujin :(
@@anonymousnlonely3315 People do think that if he had a palace it would be a theater actually.
@@jaydenc367 OMG YES
As a choir boy I totally see this 😂😂😂

@@michaeluwuowo Well, you might want to figure it out. 🤣
@@Zac_Bowman why?
I think we have all watched this more than once.
*Try nearly one hundred times*
I might have to watch it again to beleive this isn’t a crazy fever dream from watching too much P5 content at once.
If this isn’t a dream, I’d like to thank the RUclips suggestion algorithm for sticking this in with the rest of the P5 soundtrack I’m crying
I’ve lost count how many times I’ve watched this.
@@Sagasking14 yeah I feel that on a spiritual level

@@thegx5693 it really does, because of the Major use of vocal harmonies.
It's ridiculous how Joker probably talks more here than he does in the actual 100+ hour JRPG he is the main character in.
If yelling the names of multiple hundred personas doesn't count as talking of course
honestly i’m glad because as good as xander mobus is, joker speaking in full dub sentences sounds really weird.
probably cause xander goes for hot man instead of loser teenager
@@Pe3RLYT joker in the game is pretty obviously shown as cool and collected imo.
@@davidc. I read him as an awkward guy who can pull off cool easily. Of course that's just my interpretation
@@Pe3RLYT It's funny bc I actually met Xander recently, and it was hilarious to me, bc you have Joker's hot sexy manwhore voice, and then you see Xander and he's like this teenage looking dork with glasses who is the fucking nicest person on the planet.

The rematch:
Didn’t get this at first, finally played Royal and now I got a lol out of it :)
We never really didn't get that rematch with him did we?

2:11
And Akechi won
@@hankhill7287 Not really. (SPOILERS)
Even after you finish the game, if you open his confidant menu, it says "When will the other promise be fulfilled?..." or something like that.
If you go to the jazz club, Akira/Ren says "My fight with Akechi isn't over yet".
I love how Xander's part sounds like a mix between Joker and the Smash announcer which is absolutely perfect
Idk if i'm gonna get wooshed if i tell yoi
I like to imagine that Joker can do the Smash Announcer voice and Akechi HATES it, so he’s using it here specifically to piss him off.
@@elienkoy2924 y to s ame
Even if i get wooshed, i'm gonna tell you: xander mobius is BOTH Joker and the smash announcer
@@elienkoy2924 that's why I pointed it out
I'd give these two my life savings to sing "Anything You Can Do"
Omg yes!!!!
“I can sing anything sweeter than you” would be wonderful to hear with these two 😂
@@marley3679 Their voicess
Fuck. Yes.
Oh my breadsticks youre a genius
This makes me upset that Joker is a silent protagonist.
If only they make a good anime for P5R this time
Ikr. Xander's voice is too good to not make full use of it.
He's not shy, he just doesn't talk much lol
@@CrazyHand7894 no cause like even in the animated cutscenes he only even gets like one line-
@@user-sb4ox8el3s even ryuji says that joker doesn't talk much in the game.
Sad thing is, they're both right. Without Akechi the mental shutdown cases wouldn't have started, thus creating the Phantom Thieves. Without Joker, the need for his investigation into the Phantom Thieves wouldn't have brought him into the full spotlight of the media. Yes, Akechi was on the news before the Phantom Thieves, but his opinions of their actions is what fully sparked the public interest in him.
that's why this adaptation of the song goes great for it!! it's almost exactly like the original in their role case where the novelist wouldn't have fame if it wasn't for his protagonist, and the protagonist wouldn't have fame if the writer never created him 0-0
Robbie knew what he was doing when he chose this song to cover
Actually the phantom thieves didn’t even begin looking into the mental shutdowns. They were just changing peoples hearts for the better. komoshida maderame and kaneshiro were their first three targets. Even before the mental shutdown cases they were assholes who’s hearts were changed and gave the phantom thieves popularity.
@@ultimateqmazing2537 Akechi was the reason they became known worldwide and became so successful because of the Akechi vs phantom theives thing. Without Akechi they would have faded into obscurity. They kept going because of the fame
And when Akechi disappears... very few people *do* care. And when akechi disappears, very few people *do* seem to care about the phantom thieves. I totally agree. They’re both right.
A perfect yin and yang
This is the most I’ve seen joker speak, just to diss Akechi. There’s a strong emotion here
There is certainly some type of emotion
The only other time Joker has talked this much was in Smash & In the P5 Dance Game
@@OrangeToadGamer Joker: "Can't take my eyes off you".
I think it'd be cool if Joker hung out with Akechi at Karaoke and this happened
To be fair, in persona 5, you can tale every line joker says and its just 1:02 long 😂
It's a crime this isn't on Spotify.
That’s true
I KNOW I WAS LOOKING FOR IT LAST NIGHT 😭😭😭
@@swagalicious9556 Same 😂 lol
still not there i need it
I NEED IT
I love how P5 is a dark fantasy story that the fan base has transformed into a sitcom
P3 too. Like is the protagonist in eternal darkness and erased from existence? Yes! Are they still gonna make all the jokes they physically can about his emo haircut? Also yes
to be fair it's also a bunch of friends
tbf it's basically a sitcom compared to other SMTverses 💀
@@chandra_creatorfriends that don’t even seem like friends.
@@eldritchcupcakes3195”haha door-kun”
For those who aren't familiar with the source material: This song is the act 1 finale of a musical called "City of Angels". The plot involves parallel narratives of a writer (in this case, Joker) whose mystery novel is being adapted to film and the protagonist detective of his book (in this case, Akechi). This song them arguing over who is more responsible for the other's fame and success. The adaptation here is great if you don't know the context, but it's PHENOMENAL if you have the full context.
Thanks a lot for the context ! This musical sounds pretty interesting, I'll look it up, and this adaptation here makes it work so well. I really love that they chose this song, it's so catchy and works pretty well both in and out of context!
thanks for the info! I tried to look this musical up when it came out yesterday under "City of Angeles" as specified in the video, and got disappointed when nothing came up. must've been just a typo. I'll definitely be looking into listening to this musical.
Thanks cuz I was lost lol
Wouldn't it be Akechi as the writer?
"You're in my plot, I'm still your creator. I call each shot, I'm your private dictator."
@@JorianneFM You're correct! Joker sings the part of the writer in the first verse, but upon another listen, they swap their relative roles in the second verse!
I want to remind you:
THE PERSON SINGING FOR JOKER IS THE ACTUAL CANON VC FOR JOKER
WE ARE ACTUALLY HEARING JOKER SING
Then damn! Joker can sing!
Isn’t it great???????????????? 😖
-same goes for pankechi-
that's just sappiness, sweetheart I know as it's beautiful I'm crying with joy 😭
This is also Akechi's canon English voice actor... and, funny enough, I was just thinking yesterday that Akechi would have a good singing voice, and then I stumbled across this.
I just noticed that Akechi’s lyrics are in Papyrus font. It’s notorious for being a horror kind of font.
Notorious for being the funny skeleton font now
@@Pe3RLYT *nyehehehe intensifies*
_purple comic sans_ "oh no!"
their energy is “i hate you /pos” “i love you /neg” and i am all here for it
I love how Crow is singing the high notes and hogging the spotlight while Joker sings the lower notes for the harmonies, vital yet not overly showy. It fits their characters perfectly and it just makes this all the more perfect. Also good lord you two have chords.
Jonty Onopko YES!
akechi got that vibrato 😳
*696 Likes.*
Honestly though, seeing Joker's animations and certain dialogue responses, you can't tell me that he doesn't love being Dramatic about as much as Akechi does.
@@sirensong1794 i agree but dude's more tasteful about it though, akechi is definitely more of a showoff lol

Crow: Absolutely serious with every syllable he speaks.

Their the band in the back
Now I need an AU where everything is the same but it's musical

If you ****ing wooosh me I will knock some sense into your noggin. But if you said This is, Won’t that mean your Joker?
Why the fuck did I hear Spongebob and Squidward singing as soon as I saw this comment?
@@ShintaTakama That would be...interesting to hear XD
It's Haremf*cker249
@@YoloTub3 it's Harry Mo-bus.
Fun Fact: Coincidentally, as Joker is roughly 2 years younger than Akechi, Xander Mobus, the voice the Joker, is almost 10 years younger than Robbie Daymond, the voice of Akechi. Meanwhile, Hiroki Ino, the actor who portrayed Joker in Persona 5: The Stage, is 5 years younger than Yoshihide Sasaki, the actor who portrayed Akechi in the same play. Meanwhile, Jun Fukuyama, the Japanese VA of Joker, is 6 years younger than Sōichirō Hoshi, the Japanese VA of Akechi.
There is also something similar in their main Personas:
Joker's Arsène is obviously younger in concept than Akechi's Robin Hood; Arsène Lupin first appeared in 1905, and Robin Hood is from the 13th-14th century. Meanwhile, their Ultimate Personas from Persona 5 Royal also have a great difference in age; Raoul, which is still Arsène Lupin's middle name, is the same aforementioned character, whilst Hereward is inspired by Hereward the Wake, an Anglo-Saxon nobleman and a leader of local resistance to the Norman Conquest of England who lived from 1035 to 1072. The only exception is Satanael and Loki, as Satanael is from Gnosticism, which first appeared in the 1st century AD, whilst the Norse Pantheon and its stories are first spoken of in as early as the 5th century, becoming popular from the 11th to 13th centuries.
Overall, with the exception of the gods they represent, Akechi is always older than Joker in some way or another.
Edit: Took me 5 minutes to do this. Both the typing and research. It's actually really easy in this context.
oh wow
@Nicholas Lau Actually Joker is roughly one year younger than Akechi, not two.
@@emilysmith5360 well, everything is debatable. After all, Joker’s birthday is technically changeable, isn’t it? He is a self-insert character after all.
@Nicholas Lau He’s got a bit of a personality going for him so he’s not a complete blank slate.
Also if Joker were roughly two years younger than Akechi, that’d make him a first year…which he isn’t.
I ain’t reading all that
Joker is literally the most dramatic protagonist possible and this song proves it. Why doesn't the game just let him speak please
That's what I'm saying! The few times the game lets him be an actual character are so good, I have no idea why Atlus forced him to be a silent protagonist, such a waste of potential.
@@BillytheCorgi You somewhat countered yourself there. 'The few times the game lets him be an actual character are so good, I have no idea why Atlus forced him to be a silent protagonist'. A few times, he does speak, so he's not as silent as you claim him to be.
@@lanalewis6982 He speaks a grand total of 3 times throughout the entire game. And during those 3 moments of the game he is a great character.
What a shame that out of 100+ hours you may as well be playing a cardboard box
@@BillytheCorgi If you didn't want to be countered then just say so. No need to waste your time typing all that out.
@@lanalewis6982 It was 3 sentences.
After playing royal and the line about “without me you’d just disappear “ hits a lot harder haha
Don't worry, I cried too. ;-;
oh i don't like that :)
if you havent seen the animation somebody made for this theres a part where Akechi walks away from joker and a wall comes up between them. wasnt ready to cry
Also in the original after Shido's boss battle Akechi doesn't get mentioned again.
It also hits different when You realize Akira just keeps Akechis glove in his pocket at all times
Robbie really is feeding us during the apocalypse😫
Your...pfp
@@hanpines3808 no urs😳
Nobody:
Nothing:
Joker: YOU. ARE. SO THICC
I was thinking, "Damn, both of these singers really sound like Akechi and Joker." Then I went down and saw that this channel is Robbie Daymond's with a special guest star of Xander Mobus... Just wow.
After they finish singing, they reveal to be on a stage in an almost empty theater, with the rest of the Thieves sitting in their seats, absolutely baffled.
Except for Yusuke, who just claps and gives them a standing ovation.
Sounds like something Yusuke would do
I can see Yusuke do that lol
And Futaba would blame Inari for it.
Yep, I can see that
it would an awkward period of time for everyone
Are they aggressive complementing each other... or Insulting each other?
it's hard to tell
Both.
Both is good.
they have a love hate relationship, so...
You are so THICC you eat sleep breed fiction
@Kizu yes, both are tsundere bastards xD
And that's Joker and Akechi's relationship in a nutshell.
“Is it Ren? Or is it Akira? Or does the player just sort of, maki it up!?!?”
I’m pretty sure it’s “Him” or “This Guy”
LMAO
My brother wanted to put his internet name "The Think" but ended up being "The" lmao
so if a player wants to play with a name that is actually voiced in the game, he should call joker "him" or "this guy". everyday is a school day...
@@amitr24242 first name Him last name This Guy

Lyrics:
Verse 1: (Joker)
You are some gumshoe,
you just don't think well.
It's my Phantom Troope
you can go straight to Hell!
Is your mouth lonely,
with one foot in there?
Crow, your brain only
hold thoughts I put in there
Just what you are I'll spell out
You are a phantom pain.
One speck of lint that fell out
the last time I picked my brain...
(Crow)
You are so jealous,
of my track record.
Joker, do tell us
your feeble hack record
Your weak knees brand you,
soft and unstable.
One small threat and you
fold like a card table.
You drool at my own deductions.
You're just starting when I'm done.
You craft your own destruction.
Your sword is no match for my gun.
Chorus: (Together)
You're nothing...
without me!
a no one who'd go undefined
You wouldn't exist
You'd never be missed
(Joker)
I tell you, you're out of your mind!
(Together)
A show off!
A blowhard!
You're equal parts hot air and gall!
And no one would doubt me
without me you're nothing at all!
Verse 2:
(Joker)
You are so thick, you
eat, breathe, sleep fiction
I'm your meal ticket,
knee-deep in cheap fiction.
(Crow)
You're in my plot,
I'm still your creator.
I call each shot.
I'm your private dictator.
(Joker)
You gloating ignoramus!
You haven't any shame.
(Crow)
Hey!! I'm a famous shamus.
And most people don't know your name
Is it Ren? Or is it Akira?
Or does the player just sort of, make it up
Chorus: (Together)
You're nothing...
without me!
Without me you’d just disappear,
Right into thin air
And no one would care
Or notice you ever were here!!
A puppet
An upstart
A loser who’s destined to fall!!
I’m everything you always wanted to be…
Let’s deal with the issue:
You wish you were me!
You’re nothing without me,
Without me you’re nothing at all!

Best persona profile picture ever.
I can't tell if Joker and Akechi have the gayest straight relationship or the straightest gay relationship
I call it the gayest gay relationship because oh my god they want to kiss each other so bad and the rivals to lovers archetype is an archetype very exclusive to gay/lesbian relationships
While singing in this song they just glare daggers and then after Joker's all like
"Want to go to LeBlanc?" and Akechi's like "Yeah sure I'd love to have Coffee"
@@frisolaxod3835 …..I don’t necessarily disagree with you about their relationship, but rivals to lovers is a very common archetype across all relationships in fiction
@@jeremygeller9145 Oh I know, but the famous rivals to lovers in fiction are almost all gay (Narusasu, Goku x Vegeta, Catra x Adora, Joker x Akechi as I said, kind of Komahina? And well all the other rivals in DR, etc). Even down to the smaller fandoms you'll see the most popular rivals to lovers pairings are normally homosexual.
Of course heterosexual rivals to lovers is existent, but friends/colleagues to lovers is far more common and popular in that regard.

Accurate
I mean you're not wrong
it's cause they are 🤗
They hate each others to the point it loops back to love
Xander Mobius has so much range in his voice that it's honestly quite incredible. Joker, the smash announcer, and this number sound so drastically different that I'm still blown away by the fact that it's all the same guy.
Xander Mobus recording the FNaF musical was so funny
The conductor from hat in time.
I wonder what went thru Xander’s head when he heard Joker was in smash
Margaret Rose Martin probably wait is he gonna be in smash?!
Celestial night he was is smash since like March of 2019
I'm glad that Robbie Daymond and Xander Mobus did this for us fans
Coby Vitany Nah, they did it for themselves. They’re having a blast.
@@Sam-sn8oy They're having a blast and we're profiting ! Win-win ^^
I guess you could say he did it for only his fans
Sorry fans outside the US this isn't for you

Okay not gonna lie, I watched the entire video thinking this was just a fan with really good impressions for Akechi and Joker... but when the song was done I scrolled to see who made the video and I'm like "Damn this guy's name looks familiar... I think I read someone mention him on another video- wait." and I looked him up and
Yeah this is the actual Akechi VA and I am in tears WHAT A KING
EDIT: XANDER WAS IN ON THIS TOO
I just imagine this is what happens when Joker and Akechi go to the karaoke bar together during the Third Semester.
Joker, keeping Crow on Direct Command: _Crow, your brain only holds thoughts I put in there_
Bruhhh
damn you right
ouch
i KNEW they were theatre kids. I KNEW IT.
Intresting point about this is these two likely do want to be each other. Joker wants to be loved by people again and be recognized for helping them. He wants to be a good person in peoples eyes even if they dont know it. Akechi wants nothing more than to be alone and in control. He want Jokers freedom to do as he pleases.
They also wouldn't be as popular with the public if the other didn't exist
Akechi is also desperately lonely
i truly love these two characters dynamic. How from the start Fake Igor tells you how the game is rigged and unjust. Leading you to think how its all on Joker's life but then Akechi shows up as another wild card but weaker because Fake Igor left him out to dry and see who would win in the end
Technically, Akechi is stronger than Ren. The PT only beat Akechi because of the Teamwork.
@Pausenmacher i dunno if stronger is right, better use of his persona sure. He'd had it longer. But part if the wild card is the ability to change fate of yourself and others and akechi can't do that because the only bond he's truly made with anyone is akira
Arsene, Loki, and Robin Hood:
*_"mom and dad please stop fighting"_*
Sataneal Being the older child:
This is fine
That's also what Ryuji said
@@joranvandenberg2115 NOO HOW COULD YOU
@@Fkin176
Hereward: *I'm Batman!*
Raoul : *"be silent dammit! I trying to sleep!"*
I can imagine Akechi and Akira/Ren having a showtime with this xD
Next we know theyre gonna add a dlc to dancing star light.
You mean akechi and ren right
who’s ren? i only know akira
You fools His Name is Waffles Dadapon
Potato Wizard nah bro it’s Weed Nose
Xander's lower harmonies in the chorus dealt Technical damage to me
I DIDN'T KNOW XANDER'S VOICE COULD GO THAT LOW I WAS SO CAUGHT OFF GUARD
He channeled his smash bros announcer voice for this huh 😌
Fun fact: this was supposed to be Joker and Akechi's original Showtime, but it got cut because it was too long
y e s
if they made it a skippable showtime then this could be acceptable.
@@Arsene-cj1tq You can skip Showtimes in the game anyway, so I don't see a reason this is not in the game.
Are you serious?, cause would of been awesome to hear in the game
Max1238 its a joke
Akechi: Your sword is no match for my gun!
Joker: *[laughs in Gun-resistant Persona]*
If only Loki were gun resistant.
@@SorowFame that had no right to make laugh
I had a persona fusion accident once not during an alarm and it became shiki-ouji which ended up carrying me hard, especially against akechi since it's immune to everything he can throw out at me except his one almighty attack on both Robin Hood and Loki.
@@the_supern0va238 same but with a persona called abbodon (or something like that) it absorbed physical, guns and curse and resisted bless. Made the akechi fight a cakewalk.
@@Maxiz60 Abaddon
I can't believe , I just hear the real Akechi and Joker singing . That's beautiful
Because they are
The sheer amount of effort they put into the lyrics for this cover… fucking rearranging lines so the characters they fit better can sing them, writing like entirely new stanzas????? It’s… incredible.
“without me you’d just disappear right into thin air and no one would care or notice you ever were here”
STFU THAT HITS SO MUCH HARDER AFTER THE THIRD SEMESTER
joker after the third semester: (many regrets) so i might have lied ☹
Honestly, I hear Arsene singing a little more than Joker. But that's just me.
All in all, I love it!
Well, Arsene does have Joker's voice....
Shane Aycock - I am thou, thou art I. Use my power to call Akechi a lil bitch, or be chained to hell itself!
@kollie79 I think it's possible to avoid breaking NDA.
I hear more smash announcer
Casey Coolican holy sh*t.
Your comment broke me XD
The romantic tensions still haven't faded
"You drool at my deductions"
*Joker sweating profusely as he looks at Akechi's tights*
Joker: Yes deduct me more
Xander is really channeling that Smash announcer.
Tbh I heard Arsène !
@@corruptedteka I heard both tbh
ATLUS: Let's make a silent protagonist but he has a great VA who will never talk outside of one liners
Me: Wouldn't It be nice If the protagonist evolved by interactions in the social links getting to not only knowing a little bit more about his friends and himself and also HE COULD TALK
this video just proves my point
If the persona protags were non Silent and we could learn more about them. The games would be even better imo
At the _very_ least have the protag voice the lines that we pick. I'm fine with protags not being very talkative, but when the rest of the cutscene is fully voiced and Joker's one or two lines are just silence, it really stands out.
What, do they expect us to speak Joker's lines out loud while we're playing? No way I'm doing that.
@@ShermTank7272 Imagine if they decided to let future mc voice your choice but they do it similar to Xillia 2 with Ludger where he is silent in the first play through a you unlock his voice in New game +
Play both Persona 2's
@@ShermTank7272 This. This is what I want. I don't think it would take much time to voice all of them,since at least of the choices of dialogue happen in non-voiced cutscenes, but apparently ATLUS doesn't think so, too bad...
this is my roman empire
u get it
real
“Without me you’d just disappear.”
That hits different once you finish Royal ;(
"Is it ren? Or akira? Or does the player make it up?"

*snickers in Waffles Dadapon*
i can just imagine the rest of the phantom thieves standing on the side just watching and being super confused because akira is never this cocky in front of them
Can they really be *that* surprised when my mans flips onto shadows’ shoulders to rip off their masks?
If that was happening they would have popcorn somehow halfway through it
@@chaosmaster2748 and yusuke would be scribbling the words
IKR LMAO
"What a showoff. You're so reckless, you know that?"
Why isn’t this in Royal? They should have had a karaoke event in third semester.
I agree.
Imagine seeing Robbie and Xander perform this live at a convention. It would add years to your life.
Damn covid cheated us out of it possibly happening.
STOP IM CRYING THIS IS AMAZING
THE “REN OR AKIRA” PART MADE ME LOSE IT I CANT BREATHEEEEEE
I get musical broadway vibes from this where it’s two partners who can’t get along at first but then the relationship blooms between them eventually- like a reprise version of this later in the musical where they realize they actually do need each other and care a lot about each other and just mmMmmMmMMMMMM
Also you don’t understand how much power you are giving me, an idol fan who’s also an artist and writer, over shuake when y’all can BOTH SING LIKE THIS
BlackRcse ♡ i'd imagine the reprise would be at the end, and it would be when joker's lamenting over akechi being gone bc my shuake brain only understands angst 😭😭
Sapphire Sonoda OH MY GODDDDD
THEYRE LIKE SINGING TO EACH OTHER AND AKIRA TRIES TO REACH AKECHI BUT IT’S TOO LATE AND AKIRA FINISHES OFF THE SONG BY HIMSELF AFTER THE GUNSHOT WHILE SADLY SINGING “I’M NOTHING WITHOUT YOU”-
IM CRYING!!!! IM LITERALLY CRYING I CAN NOT. I CAN NOT....
>I get musical broadway vibes from this
That's because it is from musical broadway lol... it's from a musical called "City of Angels".
For context, it's a scriptwriter arguing with his main character. The detective character is saying that the writer would be nothing without him, hence the "i'm your meal ticket" line, and the writer argues back that the character wouldn't exist if he hadn't written him in the first place.
Pokemonique Ohhhh !! I didn’t know this at all, thank you for telling me!!!!
@@valkkei NOOOOOO WHY DID YOU HAVE TO MAKE IT ANGSTY LIKE THAT OH GODS
never thought id see the day that joker could sing. our boy can sing, dance, and kill a god what can’t this man do?
kakyoin’s noodle keep akechi dead.
Have an actual name.
Be gay with Akechi
Survive in valentine's day
Cant date men while I,DIO date pucci
2:25 Damn, I didn't notice before, but that line really hits different after playing P5R
This makes them sound closer than lovers
WAIT I DIDN'T REALIZE THIS WAS THE ACTUAL VOICE ACTORS AIDBSKFBSJCF
Dang someone just got hero crit, which one has „AIDBSKFBSJCF?“
I didn't realize at first either.
ALWAYS HAS BEEN
What I do wish is that Akechi’s and Joker’s VA would make more music together. Even if they were just Covers
Given how successful this one turned out to be, they definitely need to make more music together. A perfect duo.
Y A S ! !
I honestly need more of Xander's singing voice. I didn't know he could sing before this video, and I'm not disappointed at all.
Sameee
Last Surprise?

I would now pay a great sum of money for a Persona musical.
