The experience is one of self discovery, which we can embark on alongside the Phantom Thieves.
Persona 5 relies heavily on historical, literary, and folkloric figures as bases for the Phantom Thieves Personas.
Lupin is very classy, wearing a fancy suit with a top hat.
it’s possible for you to clearly see that Arsenes design in P5 retains those elements.
Joker’s gloves stand out, as they are the only red part of his attire.
Or, as a criminal who got caught red-handed.
8Skull: Captain Kidd
“There Is No Turning Back…
The Skull Of Rebellion Is Your Flag Henceforth!”
Ryuji is almost the opposite of Joker.
He is a little bit clumsy, and not flashy nor fancy.
That doesnt mean he doesnt get the job done, though.
He was accused and convicted of piracy, which led to his execution.
This confrontation left Ryuji severely scarred.
His costume is very Punk-Rock looking, representing how the teachers see him, as a punk.
His Persona is Zorro, based on… well, Zorro.
A fictional character written by Johnston McCulley.
6Panther: Carmen
“Nothing Can Be Solved By Restraining Yourself, Understand?
Then I’ll Gladly Lend You My Strength.”
Ann Takamaki is a very controversial character.
Carmen is the archetypal femme-fatal.
A strong and deadly woman who uses her feminine charm to seduce men to get what she wants.
That is exactly what Ann does in the game, several times.
She takes advantage of her good looks to fool men and help the Thieves fulfill their objective.
5Fox: Goemon
“The World Is Filled With Both Beauty And Vice…
It Is Time You Teach People Which Is Which!”
Yusuke, the artist of the group.
His Persona, Goemon, is based on the real-life ninja and thief, Ishikawa Goemon.
Legends of Goemon tend to attribute him inhuman or exaggerated ninja skills.
Both Yusukes and Goemons use of a Katana are reflected in Yusukes daily life as an artist.
4Queen: Johanna
“You Have Finally Found Your Own Justice.
yo, Never Lose Sight Of It Again.
This Memorable Day Marks Your Graduation From Your False Self.”
Makoto is the motherly, down-to-earth figure of the group.
There are more than 5 Persona 5’s.
Eventually, she stood up for herself and put herself in the position she actually wanted to be.
3Oracle: Necronomicon
The Forbidden Wisdom Has Been Revealed.
No Mysteries, No Illusions Shall Deceive You Any Longer."
Harus costume is also very fitting for her.
Goro Akechi, the detective prince.
A fitting nickname for him, since his costume closely resembles that of a Disney prince.
In fact, he looks almost made up, like a kids toy.
This might be an obvious nod to Pinocchio and Akechis lies to the Phantom Thieves.
This all makes sense when Akechi reveals his true Persona, Loki.
