Akechi: the Royal experience

- From automatic confidant with little interaction, to "dating" simulator, Atlus went All-Out with Akechi. The one thing that "surprised" me the most in my first playthrough, was the option to ask Lavenza "what will happen to Akechi".

P5R was just an Akechi dating route and Atlus wasn't even subtle about it. "I'm alone right now."
tbh i actually wanna date akechi
@@cataclysmicakz Do you mean in the game or in real life? lmao
@@zobozo5059 in game, i'd be dead if i dated him in real life lmao
@@cataclysmicakz Why would you be dead in real life? I doubt he'd kill you tbh
@@cataclysmicakz i would not date the guy irl either lol. I would only date akechi in the game because i think he is the most likely canon romance for joker.
You gotta admit, Maruki writes some damn good fanfiction.
Hack yeah lol
Atlus wouldn’t allow gay akeshu moments so Maruki harnessed the power of God and said “fine I’m going to fucking do it myself”
@@caramelcamelgreengrenade8259 This is why Maruki is my favorite. (After Futaba)
I can do better.

"I hate you."
*Rank up!*
I thought it was
*Rank up!*
"I hate you."
Royal went and said "Joker is a simp, take it or leave it."
And mona knew joker is a fellow simp because in the 3rd semester he mentioned how he is really hitting it off with akechi.
Persona 5 Royal a.k.a Joker simps for Goro Akechi
@@zobozo5059 mhm sound about right
@@cataclysmicakz Glad we're in agreement
No, no they didn't. Actually play the game akechi puts on a fake mask for 2/3rd of the game. do people actually forget this my god you people re fucking dumb
“I’m alone right now”
Sounds gay to me
@@penplease3602 i love how one of the new weathers in Royal is 'Hot Night' so after reading that text message you can spend a hot night with him lmao
"HOOKAAY"
@@Prinetta I didn't even know that lmfao
@@Prinetta
God I love this game.
Joker cares so much about Akechi though. It hurts.
Something we don't get to see in the vanilla p5
@@oinka right! Royal really improved Joker and Akechi's relationship so much, and just Akechi's character in general. I don't know what the hell they were on not giving Akechi an actual confidant in the original
@@zobozo5059 I've only played Royal so I have nothing to compare it against, but I hear a lot of people who played the regular version say Akechi was a really bland/bad character in it. I can't even imagine that. He's so fucking good in Royal that I'm literally changing 2 of the attacks on my main persona in my NG+ run just so I'm not covering his role and he has a place on my team.
@@coolhwhip49 In the original, Akechi's confidant was automatic which means it progressed through the story so you never hung out with him. Also, after Shido's Palace, he never returns. I wouldn't say he was a bland character but since you never even got to hang with him, the whole relationship between him and Joker just felt forced. Like how do you expect me to believe Joker and Akechi have this close relationship when they never hung out? Royal fleshed out his character a lot better by actually giving him a confidant, establishing Joker and Akechi's relationship a lot better and with the third semester, by having us seeing more of the real Akechi. That was the problem with him in the original in my opinion is that they didn't flesh him out so many people just thought his character was just this psycho killer when that isn't the case. I hope this may sense lol but Royal definitely gave Akechi justice
Shwinky if anything he was better than haru and still is
Joker: We're rivals, aren't we?
Akechi: :O
Speaking Akechi’s love language
ATLUS really said "hey we created an entire new story and a wholeass new character with godlike powers who wants you hang around with Akechi and go on jazz dates but we SWEAR it's not gay but like also here's a scene where he explicitly tells you he created this reality for you both haha no homo tho"
I just pray p6 lets me date and confess to both genders please. My heart can't take these cute hints. I need the full love. 😭😭😭
@@cactusrosi1409 Tbh I never cared for the dating mechanic but an option to be gay would be nice
@@zobozo5059 There’s a gay rout in p2 and it’s pretty much cannon
@@Imjudah- So I've heard! I've never played p2 so lol
@@cactusrosi1409 Also some consentual polygamy. That'd be nice...
sometimes i can't believe akechi genuinely let us fuck up his hair and put glasses on him he always seemed definitely like the don't touch me type
maybe akechi's secretly into that type of thing
@@kiraelin the phone call afterwards?? hello?? he was super into it 😭😭 like what the fuck atlus
@@squiddies6896 if only atlus decided to include that dress up thing, DAMN IT
@@kiraelinwait what dress up thing? 👁️
I think he's the "I only enjoy it if it comes with a good reason" the reason being hiding from fans
I'm like that with makeup and accessories
I only enjoy them if I'm trying to cosplay or otherwise act like someone else
If not, i get really annoyed with the sensory experience and a little...idk
Dissociative maybe?
1:48
"im training to take you out."
"like to dinner, or..."
“For dinner or with a gun?”
“Surprise me”
Why not both?
In the Spanish subs, Akechi outright says "I need practice for when I take you out on a date." I'm dead serious. I've seen comments that the localizations are a bit sketchy, so I almost can't tell if it was intentional or not. There's just no equivalent to "taking (someone) out" and they were translating from English, where that line exists. So they could've just gone with the straight up "killing you" version, which is obviously accurate. But someone on the team, either not knowing about the two different meanings or trying to be a troll intentionally, ended up being homosexual about it. I've always liked Joker and Akechi best as friends and it's still a pretty glaring issue, but it's so funny I'll take it.
@@ViktoriaMagrey REALLY?
@@ghostlyyyyyy Yes, really. ...Localizations are a truly bizarre thing. x,D
Not even 30 seconds in and the zoom in on Akechi then the pancakes made me ugly laugh. Thank you Oink
I'm glad you had fun! If I had to confess, the initial zoom in on Akechi is a reference to people focusing on... uhmm... him aiming the shot lol
oinka his ass?
@@deepfriedcheesecake5976 W-whaaaat?!

HIS SMILE BEHIND THE SHUTTERS-
I let out a choked sob THANKS!
Everyone talking about how "Sumire was such a forced love interest" like Akechi wasn't pushed twice as hard.
Atlus being subtle but not really
Yea but sumire is trash
@@borisjohnson5417 Ahh a garbage take I see
@@borisjohnson5417 yeah I think sumire was a really annoying character, the whole game I wished atlus never put her in
@@nickbarlas5544 We all have opinions here. I wouldnt say she was garbage but I didnt like her that much. She was ok to me at best. But if you like her that's completely fine! We all have our own opinions!
Lavenza: Are you regretting?
Joker: No its okay
Lavenza: But it doesnt look like..
Joker: * ugly sobbing* *I said its okay*
"Honey, I'm home" Joker plz
"You're back awfully late" Akechi are u just not going to react
that was the reaction! it's a common trope in japan for a stereotypical husband to go "honey I'm home," with the wife commenting on how he's later then he said he'd be. so basically, he played along with joker's antics, most likely used to him by now lmao
@@pancakes4life804 Akechi being best waifu.
@@pancakes4life804 I loved that he played along lmao
The fanfic text overlay ended me
honestly. the.
"let's go back. to our true reality."
he said that so softly. the amount of pain i can imagine he was hiding
So the million dollar question is: Does Joker keeps Akechi’s glove in his pocket all the god damn time??
Probably just forgot it in that pair of pants he wears
I think he uses it as a fleshlight
@@Imjudah- fucking cursed
hands
@@Imjudah-
Based, but probably correct.
Robin Hood hitting himself is so humiliating im crying
I honestly can't stop imaging Joker messing Akechi's hair and then give him his glasses.
Akechi: "I'm alone right now."
Joker: *"OKAY!"* (rushes to see Akechi)
2:18 the fact that he answered to it like it was a perfectly natural thing says it all
Completely unfazed. Does this happen a lot akechi? 🤨
Akechi is like Persona 3 social link with girls, it doesn't matter if you want to or not, you're in a relationship now.
Akechi’s starlight outfit kinda slaps though
He keeps Akechi’s glove in his pocket. That’s honestly one of the most heartbreaking things I’ve ever seen.
The game is trying to force him onto you more than Kasumi or Makoto combined. I mean...I’m not complaining🤷♂️
I should have included the part where Mona says "guys' night out at the aquarium? I guess it's not that weird"
@@oinka You should of! Morgana over here like "Y'all gay" lmao
I know I'm gonna sound dumb but can I ask you guys why so many people say Makoto was forced onto you? Like I completed Royal and her social link but I don't see it that much. Am I just bad at picking up clues???
@@alicefrizzarin2424 Lol it's ok. I think it's scenes like when Sojiro asks Joker and Makoto if they're dating and when Joker pushes Makoto out of the way from getting hit during the Cognitive Wakaba fight that make people think they're trying to force Joker and Makoto as canon
@@zobozo5059 Oh that? Well at least now I know I did not miss out on stuff 😅. Thanks!
"Two at once, the way I like it!"
Akechi... what?
As if we weren't concerned enough by, "More brainwashed than a cult member."
😂
he also says "full circle, this is going to be great!" or something like that.
Like, Akechi...we already know you're gay.
@@frisolaxod3835 Akechi does like the PPs it seems.
@@frisolaxod3835 "Jokers enraged!? I kind of like it but its not you! Calm down!"
God this makes me want to replay the whole game just to experience Akechi again 😭😭😭 Came here for the memes and left in tears lol
working as intended
I don't know why, but I lost it at "Goro and Akechi's Showtime has been unlocked." 8:20 timestamp
"Taste my *curry* "
I'M LOSING IT RN
Anyone else wish he was walking the other way in the ending scene so we could see that his glove is missing-?
I know right haha I even played that clip in slowmo to see if I can catch a frame with his bare hands... no hand was shown
@@oinka
★ A reply from Senpai~! ★
But it's got to be him, nobody else wears his outfit and would be mildly arrested outside a train station. 👀✨
@@SoftBunnyPaws I think so too, but I also feel like the devs purposefully create doubts by not showing his face.
Its actually confirmed that Akechi is in rehabilitation after the events of the game. There is a removed cutscene and dialogue showing him talking to 2 people who are presumably rehab volunteers.
@@inplane9970
Oh yeah! In the deleted scenes, right?
Best character in the game. Also he is very well alive in the end, a figure with greenish uniform and a *left* glove? Yeah right, it's easy to pick Atlus' signals up
It's also worth noting that you don't see him (or the figure that resembles him) in the after credits scene if you didn't max rank his confidant so that confirms it even more.
There's actually an unfinished cutscene (there are clips out there on UA-cam of people playing the incomplete version left in the code) which pretty directly implies that in the real timeline, Akechi does somehow survive the cruise ship, and he's still missing because he goes to some mountain resort that he used to visit with his mom, and he stays there for a while while he recovers from his wounds, regains his strength, and tries to figure out what to do with his life.
@@a.dykeman1980
Akechi dies only in P5 Vanilla, even in the anime he cheers the thieves against Yaldabaoth
@@a.dykeman1980 I'm pretty sure it's actually a rehab center
@@a.dykeman1980 wait for real? Can you send a link pls?
Joker: "Taste my curry!"
Akechi: "This isn't good."
Joker: "Die, DIE!"
11:08
When you hear footsteps outside but then realize you don't have an open window.
Omg, Maruki the Shipper, I'm dead! The best part is that I actually read a fanfic once where Maruki really was a fanfic shipper and kept altering reality to create tropey contrivances in an effort to get them together.
*cough cough* link?
*coughchchchc*
link?
Haha, oh holdup...
Might have to get back to this later
@@keiraharding3071 Link in my other comment, enjoy the silly
@@CrescentUmbreon I can't find it (Tʖ̯T)
The 'I hate you' RANK UP as the same power as Akechi killing the guard in front of you and 'I feel like my bond with Akechi is growing deeper' and I live for it 😌✊
(All not so kidding aside, I love this video and all your other ones. Thank you for sharing this masterpiece with us! ☺️👌)
Thank you, I'm glad you like it!
that had me ugly laughing
Can we get Joker's murder kink out of the chat please?
Ren had more chemistry with Akechi than with Sumi
Sumi still waifu though
i was ready for the haha funnies but instead i just Cried. so that was fun
"Goro and Akechi's showtime has been unlocked" I died
my heart cant take this
“Two at once! The way I like it!” Lmao 😂
Sound gay and polyamerous to me
The funny thing is when I played Third Semester I set Akechi to Act Freely because of his character
0:17 now I know why Akechi's Dart's score is so high...
>sees text notification
>it’s from akechi
“I’m alone right now.”
>forcefully turns Morgana into a car
Yo, the almost-zoom to his butt that you switched immediately to the pancake on the wall really got me. Well played
To all them Akechi haters who won't even bother realizing the depths of his character, his relationship with Joker or how much Royal enhanced the whole thing, I have nothing but pity. Might as well be playing vanilla. A particular person comes to mind but I'm not gonna call out names.
If you replace the word 'rivals' with 'boyfriends' the scenes are still exactly the same
Common misconception: Aketchi’s rank 3 persona Hereward is actually a rank 1 fusion persona, Robin Hood and Loki are two different personas, He has access to both Loki and Robin Hood since he first joined the team.
This... was a spectacular and *royal* experience. Loved it!
Joker on the outside: you two have history?
Joker on the inside: Step away from my man!😡
Akechi: bitch.
ARCANA Justice *RANK UP*
Akechi is the epitome of "Tell me you're gay, without telling me that you are gay."
8:37 this had me dead
I might have had Joker romance Makoto, but Akechi is still his boyfriend.
Akechi : one card left
Joker : 13 cards left, plays 8
Akechi : 3:56
Joker : *spamming pairs*
thanks for sharing your royal experience with us it was delicious
I actually lost that round of Tycoon :x haha
People: joker and Akechi love each other
Also joker and Akechi;
Akechi: I hate you
Joker: I know
Yeah fam we really need a female in p6 so the female ain't always going yoai
@@holycrusader7649 It could go yuri.
@@melonsauce1474 based
Just realised
At the end, we just see one side of the " man that looks like Akechi"
We can't see if he has his two gloves
Well he needs to be missing one.
this is too perfect
"i hate you"
bond ranks up
2:23 O H B O I
Those moans
The part at 3:58 absolutely killed me.
Even if Akechi hadn't been the villain and got the treatment of the average party member, I still think he would be one of the most dynamic, fleshed out, and loved characters. Even before his reveal, he is open to an extent about how he hates Joker and why, and how he respects him too. There is no other party member in Personas 3-5 that has ever had a dynamic this believable and real. If he weren't corrupt, he would still yearn for that recognition and the excuse to be condescending to everyone around that, but he can't do that around Ren. In 3-5, with the exception of early Junpei, everyone looks up to the protagonist since he is a good leader and the most reliable in combat, and they accept that and ultimately blindly trust him. Makoto goes against the wishes of the party and sacrifices himself. Yu can become an accomplice, and the party would never suspect him. But with Ren, Akechi is the only party member to ever be open and about his distaste (besides maybe Makoto before stealing Kaneshiro's heart, before she's reassured) with any decision and open about his desire to surpass the leader. He is so disappointed when Ren chooses to live in the false reality, and expresses such. Akechi ultimately accepts that Joker is stronger, but he nonetheless constantly keeps Ren under pressure because he expects a lot out of him. If anyone is going to be better than Akechi, they better do a darn good job at it. Gosh I love this character
*20 mins in zooms in*
me: yeah zoom dat as....
*zooms to pancakes*
me: that looks good too
6:38
Nobody:
Akechi towards Joker:
I want to kill you but I don’t want you to DIE
I love how you stopped the music at the jazz club so it only says “People come-“
I laughed so hard at “but the waves washed away my swimming trunks”
Nobody:
Altus being “subtle”:
wait you can go to the jazz club on the last day to get something? ;-; I didn’t know
no, that was edited lol But you can talk to jazz club owner!
The way he doesn't answer weirded out when you say 'honey, I'm home!' But he goes along with it MAKES ME SOFTTT
11:09 due to some settings on my TV, I could clearly make out the figure that resembles Akechi. I think it's him because who else has that hair
This is amazing!! Thanks for making it!
2:51 seeing the “akechi jig” with him in the dark outfit is blursed
Can’t believe they added the jazz bar from the tv show into royal /j
2:23 excuse him, making that sound? And the dialogue 😅😂 Wild.
The "I am thou" thing really got me
6:48
“Akechi, whatcha cooking?”
“Shadows.”
Akechi: TAKE THEM DOWN ROBIN HOOD
Joker: uno reverse card
i come back to this video months later and it still hurts
Love the editing lmao
0:44
"I am thou, thou art I"💀
Yeah this video sums it up perfectly
Akechi : I hate you
Confidant rank up
There's a cut scene that confirms Akechi is alive after the ship where he goes to the bath house his mom used to leave him at which ends up being a rehab center
bro i just finished p5r and i must say jfc why couldnt we date Akechi... 😭 like dude, joker carries his glove, doesnt know how to feel now that akechi is gone (as in he's not sure what he did was the right thing) and him even talking (more like arguing) with Akechi the day b4 fighting maruki and u have the option to live in the world where Akechi is alive or live in reality but Akechi is yelling at you bc he thinks you are basically insulting his wishes for you to live in a world without him
trolling akechi in real life is better than in online
1:11 ooh something's not right
my manz double pancaked up on a thursday afternoon
I love him and them BOTH so fUCKING MUCH
This is video is perfect
OMG I DIDN'T THINK ABOUT GOING BACK TO THE JAZZ CLUB!
I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THAT TALK AT JAZZ JIN WTFFF
Akechi, my beloved
3:56 "Is this your signature move?"
*cuts to Yoshitsune*
I guess it is since Yoshitsune (without including izanagi no okami which is obviously Narukami’s) is the strongest.
hysterical slap, aka the sr pelo attack
You play on act freely? You're a mad lad
