Dr. Maruki is Snacks Material

- Today we cover the man with the snacks that is Takuto Maruki from Persona 5 Royal. Following the events of the Kamoshida incident, Shujin needed a way to save the school’s reputation so they brought in the good doctor with the juicebox. With that here are my reasons why Dr. Maruki is Snacks Material.

I still laugh everytime Dr. Maruki hits his head on the mic 😅
I chose the bad ending.
Next: Sojiro is godfather pls :3
Lmao I love it
Someone wants a jojo episode
Can you do a jojo episode plz i really want it
The time my handsome counselor who like to give snack became a god.
Honestly
Nice anime title
This happened to my buddy Eric once
Lmao
Joker’s anime idea
I just came back here to pay respects for Billy Kametz, Dr. Maruki's English VA. RIP Doc, we will miss you.
I also knew him from Monkey Kid. Real bummed out that he passed.
Shoot man, I didn't know Kametz voiced Maruki. I mainly knew him as the voice for that one Jojo with the crappy hair
Maruki: I have snacks at my office
Literally everyone playing the game:
*Are you the snack?*
Dont forget the girls in Shujin
he is.
I agree he's my favorite
You're all pretty gay ngl
thank you jesus christ, very cool
Billy Kametz truly had an awesome voice. May he rest in peace.
He died?
@@someguyoninternet1427 yes, 6 months ago
Maruki was a great character. He really made you think and his ideals juxtaposed against your own made you realize that different paths are not evil by default.
Not really. He did make me think but not in a fun way. More like the road to hell is paved with good intentions. Which isn't an old concept in SMT games. Hell Nocturne explores the premise Maruki goes for somewhat with the Reason of Musubi - a reason that would have devolved into Maruki's "Happiness for everyone" plan.
I still think he was pretty twisted... He was evil, just not on an egotistical manner like Shido or Yaldabaoth, but still, evil nonetheless
The way I saw it, he was willing to "kill" Sumire or replace her essence with Kasumi's, to ease Sumkre's pain, and that didn't work at all because that's nlt how any of that works
He was likeable and you coul empathize with him easily, but no one crowns himself king of a new reality without crushing countless others
I would have like the game to dwell more on thi gs like people being written out of existence because their parents didn't love them, familkes being disintegrated because the "hapiness" of a thkrd person depended on that,, criminals getting out of jail because their parents believe their kids to be innocent,
Maruki's plan would have f*cked a lot of lives along the way, or it would have collapsed on itself with all the contradicting wishes and desires people hold on their hearts
Throughout the game of Persona 5.
All bosses had selfish desires, willing to kill and rob people for their own selfish gain, failing meant you'd be killed and lose your reason to rebel, both through letting time run out or accepting the bad endings.
Maruki had desires to give everyone their desires and dreams, logical ones and impossible ones, failing meant you'd gain your desires without actually earning them, thus the bad ending counters all your journey throughout Persona 5 and inner strength and rebellion.
but world peace
@@josephnowak6802 it isn't world piece. It's the illusion of it. It's an elaborate lie but at the end of that It's just a lie
@@CBman11037 I thought they made it clear that they aren't illusions though when talking about the deceased coming back to life. None of what Maruki did was an illusion.
@@CBman11037 my bad, I just read that you said "the illusion of it" and not calling it an illusion.
the bad ending also undo sumire's over coming her trauma
"The life of a four eyes."
Honestly, he's just best boy of P5R.
Sad josé noises
Ngl,a super duper whooper hooper looper perfect reality is just... Boring
For real...
Nah. Still Joker.
Still Joker/Ren Amamiya/Akira Kurusu for me...
his goodbye speech hits way harder now that his va died
honestly a lot of maruki's character hits harder with that in mind especially when you consider maruki's reality probably would have excluded diseases like cancer
Playing P5R will never be the same again, Rest In Peace Billy Kametz
He only wanted to make the world a better place. On his own twisted terms.
Still better than the villains in Strikers
Yeah. And so did Demiurge and Yaldabaoth, and Enlil and so did....
In short, he's not evil, just misguided.
Not only is he snack material,
HE IS THE SNACC
Maruki is simply one of the best Persona characters to ever be created. He makes me want more persona 5 spin offs just so there’s a chance that he’ll appear more. I absolutely love Maruki.
Imagine the conversations he would have with Zenkichi in Persona 5 Arena
Honestly I'm hoping one day he does come back so he can join the Phantom thieves as one himself because everything we know about him I think he'd make a perfect addition to the team.
@@Antasma1 1: we don't know if we're getting a persona 5 arena.
2: I think an interaction between the two of them would be pretty funny knowing that they're two adults that get bullied a lot by these problem children. They can relate to each other's pain.
@@adrianarballo179 to counter the arena argument, while we don’t know, it’s currently likely seeing how ATLUS renewed a URL patent for P5U, which many think is arena (Persona 4 Arena was called P4U)
@@TyTeaStrings you do have a point but it could still mean something else. What Atlas did back for persona 4 they might not do for persona 5 that plus the fact I just don't think of fighting game fits with persona 5's thief aesthetic.
I don't agree with his reality/ideology, but I cannot deny that I sympathise with him.
I know... Poor bastard went through literal hell in a handbasket.
I understand why, it depends of people and experience of each one. For exemple, if I was as Joker, I'd probably choose his reality, because things happened in my life that i'd give everything to change it. It's exactly why it's depends of each one.
Lets be honest that last moment is a MGS 4 reference, now with that song ahhh, chef kiss!!
Legit. Hearing the song just hit different
Except he didn't kiss joker like ocelot do to snake 🤣
Maruki gets a 1/10 for me. When he said he has free snacks, I thought I would end up getting him.
LMAO
Honestly that's Atlus' fault for not letting the MC be bi.
Here's hoping to persona 6 and any snacks it might have.
So you thought he was the snack
I can't blame you for wanna eat him up
@@turkeybear9315 cannibalism?
Thank you, Billy Kametz. Rest in peace.
If we're doing these guys. Can we get Inchinose is doll material and Adachi is based material?
Akechi is pancake material is there thought
WE NEED ONE OF ADACHI GOOD GOD
@@gabrielshensky348 The dude straight up ate Dojima's sea urchin sashimi. Unforgivable! And based at the same time
Adachi is CABBAGE material
Adachi is clown material
Literally every scene you showed of him resulted in me putting a hand in my heart and saying how much I love him.
Maruki's storyline was already tragic, but having the context of knowing what happened to Billy Kametz makes it worse in a way.
RIP Billy Kametz.
Obviously it’s all acting in the game and could be coincidence, but the irl events really paints his performance in the final gameplay section in a completely different light. It’s so painful in that context and I absolutely hate it.
8:08 I see U inserted an MGS4 OST right there, it fits so perfectly XDD
i was waiting to hear "you're pretty good!" :D
@@durge12
Snake: LIQUID!!
Liquid: SNAKE!!
Joker: MARUKI!!
Maruki: RUMI!!
RYOJI!!
MINATO!!
Rest in peace, Billy Kametz.
RIP Billy Kametz aka Ferdinand von Aegir from FE Three House & Three Hopes
Maruki in base P5: "Anyone want snacks?"
Maruki in 3rd semester: "I shall give everyone what they desire. A world without pain and suffering is the ideal way to live..."
One of my friends who recently started playing Royal said to me the other day...
"Maruki has snacks? Bitch! He is the snack"
LOL MY OLDER SISTER SAID THE SAME THING!!! Also, my older bro said and I quote "I'm pretty sure that he's gonna become a Tumblr Sexyman".
@@gerragotheallidile and he did
@@kattbk1077 Yup. Also, R.I.P Billy Kametz...
@@gerragotheallidile *rest in peace to a good fella*
One of the best antagonists I’ve ever seen in a video game. His motivation, backstory and execution of his plans are written really well.
I disagree, He is the most creepy. The whole offering of snacks was creepy AF. I was expecting him to pull up to a school in a van trying to get kids in his van. Why does his music during these therapy sessions sound like porn music? He isn't a good antagonist he is just a straight up predator.
@@SirRandallDoesStuff …Ok?
Hell yeah he is a snack!
Ima be real, i’d be fine living in maruki’s reality if i was not aware of him being in control of My fate instead of myself.
So i guess P4 has taught me nothing about blissful ignorance.
lmao same
Does the form of happiness matter when you genuinely think it’s satisfying in the end. Imo probably not. Of course covering something up with lies will bother some part of your subconscious which is what P4 is about anyways. And in Maruki’s the happiness will probably be short term, unless Maruki also includes overcoming obstacles in his reality for you. So unless it’s the latter, I think I’d live in his reality as well if I didn’t know and it doesn’t get boring quick.
Billy is truly a legend
God rest his soul... Cancer friggin, blows, man...
He really do be lookin like a snacc tho
He my favorite antagonist
During my playthrough of royal, when he ask the group of they wanted snacks to go for counseling, I wished they had given me an option to say ' you had me at snacks' for a response to his counseling offer
They knew we were all thinking it
Playing P5R again in october once the game gets released on pc, Rest in peace Billy Kametz (Maruki's Voice actor)
Insult Maruki all u want, but he's just trying to create the world a btr place for the Phantom Thieves
Not just the Thieves. Everyone he can.
Even though he's the antagonist honestly I wish he would join the Phantom thieves. Cuz we all know those traumatized beans need another father figure don't get me wrong I think Zenkichi as a father figure is good but having markie as one especially a father figure who can help you talk you through your problems would be even better and he has snacks. I also see him as a viable candidate to be a phantom thief because of everything we already know about him. I'm really hoping one day he comes back and joins the team.
I wish maruki was in strikers. And akechi and sumire 😥
If they we're in strikers all three of them they'd be playable characters and also we have a group of two father figures, problem children, a cat and an AI That's something.
So Persona 5 Strikers Royal.
@@65firered yeah 😊
@@65firered I would absolutely love that to happen this way we'd have all characters from Royal and strikers together. Not adding characters from Royal into strikers seems like an opportunity missed. I know strikers focuses on the timeline from persona 5 not Royal. But it still feels like an opportunity missed.
@@rickyricardo6481 I agree with you and him let's hope it actually happens.
We have Maruki but no Sojiro
For real!!!??
*Hoo boy*
Hoo boy
Hoo boy
Hoo boy
The true ending boss fight wouldve been real easy to beat if I could actually see the screen through my tears that is
Just use the Myriad Truths, I hear that using it will reveal all
8:39 "Thus ending our journey with him with a certified brofist"
Me who believes Atlus will make Royal Strikers: Oh I don't think so
He also has the same voice actor as Ferdinand von Aeger from Fire Emblem Three Houses. He could say the quote "I am Ferdinand von Aegir" and sound like Ferdinand.
The things we wish could happen R.I.P. Kametz
8:08
*intense MGS4 flashbacks*
Maruki is very interesting.
Would i accept his reality? No, because it would actually create its OWN set of problems. Like, he'd be able to bring people/pets back from the dead, causing overpopulation problems. That, and it's not right for someone to have that kind of power over your life.
He is a god, he could solve overpopulation simply by spawning more food or something. That and not all the dead are revived (makoto's mom was still dead lmao) so he probably selects who gets revived and stuff like that
Excellent Saltbae reference
Nice, we have Dr Maruki, am i sensing Adachi-baby soon ?
same
I’m not sure if he was given the title of “villain” but he’s one of my favorite characters regardless, and for some reason, I sympathize with him and what he believed to be an ideal reality, but sadly, it isn’t like that, but that doesn’t stop me from trying to get though each and every day, especially with most of the bs that’s going on
And I’m rambling, so I’ll just say great vid, I loved every second of it
Technically, he's an antagonist. Someone who goes againts the protag
Thanks for the clarification, however, Maruki’s still my favorite
@@mscard214 He's still my favorite as well. Poor guy went through literal hell in a handbasket...
The only bad thing with Maruki's reality was the situation when he passes away from aging; what happens to the world then?
I think he probably can't age.He is literally a God in his reality.
@@winhtunhein2554 R.I.P. Billy Kametz...
The entire point of that ending is to show that it’s just a beautiful lie. Sumire’s development is undone and she reverts back to “Kasumi”, Akechi’s fake personality becomes his real one.
The metal gear reference was on point 👌🏻
I'm glad someone got it ^^
Dr. Maruki offers: Snacks
Dr. Maruki received: The World
I’m watching this to stop the tears… ;-;
YES IT FINALLY HAPPENED
That MGS4 reference was amazing
Maruki is Snack Material because he is a snacc
Finally someone else makes that MGS4 reference, its been on my mind since I first saw Maruki's final fight.
If you didnt know Maruki's VA in english Billy Kametz. Love his voice.
He’ll be forever missed…
Billy Kametz did a great job with Maruki. Although I can't unhear Josuke from him.
Or shield hero naufumi
or ferdinand von aegir
Rest in peace Billy... At least you get to exist in a world without pain...
His palace has the best theme in the entire game... for those curious type in: Gentle Madman
we need a "Tatsuya is Vroom material"
The ending is good, but it's no using the devil to kill god on christmas
LMAO
Other villain after are defeated:**cries**
Maruki:YOU,ME,NO PERSONAS,NO WEAPONS,JUST FIST,LIKE REAL MANS
Scramble and Royal have so many similarities and complete differences, Sophia and Kasumi being parallels in some ways, while Maruki and Ichinose are like opposites in a way, of course I don't want to spoil things, but Scramble just gave me Royal 2.0 vibes, doesn't help that there's a false awakening and also another thing becoming godlike and controlling everyone, but its also just as subtle as Maruki's method, maybe moreso due to the phones acting as a soft spot to one's sense of security
Honestly I'm hoping we get another spin-off or sequel cuz I want to see more of those characters that plus the fact I want Maruki and Zenkichi to meet and interact.
@@adrianarballo179 none of Royal is canon aside from the Technical mechanic, though it was be an awesome idea, that would cause a crap ton of plot holes
@@StarLucario102 I know none of Royal is Canon but imagine if it was. It would be so awesome to see all those different kinds of characters interact. Plus knowing Atlas in past games they've created it could still be a possibility.
@@adrianarballo179 There was hope, emphasis on was, because Persona 4 Golden is canon and the enhanced game was kept as the canon timeline in the other spin-offs, but it seems Atlus didn't plan very well for Persona 5's timeline, while its cool to think about the possibilities, Atlus is just wanting to do things for money now.
@@StarLucario102 I still think there's hope for persona 5 and it's characters don't sell Atlas short.
This dude is one of those characters that made me cry a bit like JEEBUS.
I KNOW RIGHT?!
Honestly I don't blame him, I would smack that mic too
I love this man he was actually a fun confidant to hang with and made me want to spend more time with him. I love everything about him he made the game better
Now the question is; which voice is better suited for Takuto Maruki? EN or JP or both? I mean Royal gives you the option to change your language voiceover for ✨𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓮✨ instead of making it be a purchasable DLC in vanilla (I think). All opinions, all respect. Personally, I’m thinking both voice actors did an incredible job voicing Maruki and his sorrows.
But the true question is; Persona 5 Royal: The Animation (with a whole new animation team) when?
Yusuke and Maruki having a constant battle for who's my favorite p5 character lol
Just a theory. The reason Rumi forgot who Maruki is because Rumi most have forced the image of Maruki’s face on her parent’s killer due to the trauma.
Morgana is "Go to bed" material.
For reol though. An ending where you just sleep forever and are forgotten by everyone is indeed sad.
The metal gear solid track at 8:15 killed me
Awesome Video Man! I've been waiting for so Long!😏😎
Maruki is von aegir material
Damn bro, i really missed out on joker finally throwing down hands with no persona?
Love what you did with the mgs4 music
I'm happy when someone gets the MGS reference ^^
8:08 I was expecting something like
MARUKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
REEEEEEEEEEEEN
When I played royal I had already played the original persona and I went in with high expectations of Sumi and low expectations for maruki and at first I loved both of them but then sumi just kept disappearing for long amounts of time and the reappearing and wasn’t even useable until the last palace so I ended up not liking her at all and she started becoming annoying whilst maruki was always fun and because he had a mostly normal confidant I had more fun with him and was more entertained with his character and his interactions with the other phantom thieves and during his palace I loved him even more since he was such a satisfying final palace and boss and everything that happens with his perfectly builds up to his palace and his final boss fight
I’d take an ugly truth over a beautiful lie
The truth hurts, but unfortunately, you need to put up with it.
Best_boy v3.0
It's sad because in all seriousness Maruki reality is the ideal one and we refuse it for everyone because of our ideals 😭😭😭
Isn't he dreamy
DON'T SLEEP THROUGH DREAMS THAT CAN'T COME TRUE
NO MORE TEEAAARS SHALL DROP FROM YOUR CHEEKS ANYMORE
honestly if maruki asked if i would wont too stay in that reality too me i think i wouldn't be able to say no
And he have one of the best songs
When i was playing the ending of royal the first time i really imagine the fist fight with Maruki with the ost of MGS4 in the final fist fight, thanks to make it real.
the reason Dr. Maruki is a villain is because he made cat boys only and not cat girls
The scene where he formally introduces himself to Ann, Ryuji, and Joker will always be one of the funniest for me. If you don't pick "To think I'd end up in a castle" you're boring
Dr.Maruki is dripped out his mind with them sandals
Maruki is a good and awesome guy no matter what
I just want to give him a hug
Oh, I'd like to live in his dreamworld~
TL;DR Maruki is a great character but a terrible person in my eyes. He limits everybody to either conform to his society or be forced to change to fit it.
I struggle to find Maruki even REMOTELY correct. On the surface level, everything is fine, but when you remember things like that one hardass teacher suddenly becoming like "a second Buddha" as Ryuji puts it, it made me wonder. Did HE wanna change? I doubt it, and as such, is the original personality lost in his head, unsure of what thoughts lead to what decisions, living like he's dreaming with the illusion of control? Or is he a prisoner in his own head, forced to watch his body be puppeted around by another personality? Or, the kindest of the possibilities I thought of, that the original personality has been overwritten completely, the original person is effectively dead, and all that's left is Maruki's meat puppet.
As a villain, he is fantastic and it's good that he is so charismatic so as to convince the characters and many players that he may actually be right. I was uncertain what to decide, but as I went through the Palace, I realized the fallacies latent throughout his philosophy and the true selfish intentions behind it.
The Palace makes it pretty clear that he's distracting himself from his own past shortcomings with his delusions of grandeur as a hero, all so he can hide from his failure to protect Rumi or her parents. He's a coward who can't face himself, and in response anybody who doesn't conform to his world view is made to learn it by force.
Eh, but what do you care? He speaks gently and has a nice smile.
No, he has a kind heart, but a wounded soul. He just a misguided lad who wants the best for everyone, but doesn't know how to cope with his own pain.
@@gerragotheallidile I like Maruki, I really do, but... The sleep ending. The f*cking sleep ending. A non-canon ending that you practically have to TRY to get, and I have to practically ignore that it exists, or I'll develop a seething hatred for him as a character. What kind of a monster would doom someone to sleep until they die? Forever cut off from his friends, his family, everything he knew and loved. And not just ANY someone, but JOKER, the kid that pulled himself back up after having his life destroyed, saved Tokyo and possibly the world from endless apathy and no free will by fighting a GOD, and Maruki dooms hi. To a slow death, wasting away in bed, his body to be forever isolated and never found (not that anyone would look for him because he's been forgotten too...) Lost in an endless void with only spiders to witness his death. I freaking HATE the sleep ending and wish it had never been added.
POGGG
JUICE
Mmm.. JUICE
i accidentally got the true ending on my first playthrough. I didnt even work on akechis confidant all that much LOL.
While i didn’t like Yoshizawa much, Maruki and the revamped Akechi really sold Royal as the definitive version of Persona 5 (along with the quality of life and gameplay changes ofc). Maruki is the perfect way to end Persona 5, i just feel bad for the people who skipped his confidant and missed out on the third semester.
When sojiro father materia?
MARUKI DID NOTHING WRONG CHANGE MY MIND
@HunterkageJoestar No good reason?
The sleep ending.
The only confidants to notice you're a phantom thief besides sojiro were all women who you could go on dates with.
Maruki noticed you're a phantom thief.
I'm not liking this connection... :,(
Every confidant figures it out if you rank them high enough...right after you eliminate their problem in Mementos
he's one of my top 5 reasons why we needed a femc for p5 (my other 4 are Akechi, Ryuji, Yusuke and Iwai)
Bad news...pretty sure Yusuke's canonical sexuality is "gay for art". Unless your character is a painting, you have no chance with him
For as nice as dreaming is, I still want to wake up
I just realized Maruki has the same voice actor as Ferdinand from Three Houses (Billy Kametz).
R.I.P.
Argh Maruki! Pass me the personadie shot!
MARUKIIIIIIII!
JOKEEEEEER!
