      LookingGlassProject You bet. I got persona 5 and ended up with Hiifumi on first run. But damn pissed off romanced Ann by end of game..and too familiar what happened with my romanced Rise in Persona 4 I 'm still getting over in this game. Ann at least I had reason to choose her first this time from my first Persona breakup in last game romanced with Yukiko then. Didn't repeat in Ann's case to get over my first game breakup this time. So moving on now from that trouble, maybe I am better off with Yu-Gi-Oh girl mine now. Like Yukiko in last game, cus' lets face it I got soft spot for cute girls with quiet demeanor usually mean fire in her her soul I'm glad to have again in Persona 5. Hiifumi's absolutely wife material I'm glad picked in long run through game. Cute, quiet, yet sweet and absolutely fierce my Persona 5 girl like Yukiko in last game. Although I could do without hysterical laugh like from Teddy's glasses Hahaha [Snort] over and again probably until hiccups. But eh still cute and fire heart like my girl now. And video don't call my current girl idiot no better telling women that in real life kicks a--happens every time with angry women. And I'm sorry to say so MEN ARE SO CHEAP in regards to relationship I don't dare for my woman. And I don't just mean mine from Persona 5 I wish I had in real life. lol

      exactly after a long day grinding or doing request in mementos, to come home to a massage that gives you back your evening to do whatever you wish. Plus she does laundry,make curry,make coffee,makes tool, and let you slack in class. Clearly if she isn't a top waifu then at the very least she deserves a Nobel Prize.

      One of my favorite abilities is Chihaya's Affinity Reading. By giving you points in a confidant without spending time, it helps you avoid having to waste free time hanging out with confidants rather than gaining ranks with them, enabling you to unlock all *their* abilities. The only downside is that you have to go all the way up to Rank 7 to unlock it.

    • @animatedink2529
      @animatedink2529 7 років тому +31

      Honestly, they should just skip a re-release of Persona 5 and just make a straight up, direct sequel where Akria's teammates except for Morgana are all kidnapped by the new villain and he has to put together a new team to rescue them. Hifumi should definitely be on that team.

      Velvet Room Games I would expect something samurai-ish for costume and persona, or some sort of old military look. group-wide buff skills and maybe recovery skills for getting rid of debuffs seem likely. Or she could just be a navigator/support like futaba.

  • @thebrightcube7817

    Hifumi was originally going to be a party member but was demoted to a Confidant because the story was big already. Which could explain why her skills are so useful. it's a shame too because I would say she is more interesting than Haru but I guess since they can't have two..."cool characters" (Makoto) they just made her a Confidant. But I really liked her Confidant and would like to see more of her. very enjoyable Confidant.

    I felt bad for Hifumi's situation. It wasn't as depressing as Futaba's, but Hifumi was relatable to my personal experience growing up. When my dad left the Navy I was given the option to stay in Japan with a foster family, but in middle school I started competing on the national level in kendo. I guess my foster father tried live out his dream vicariously through me the same way Hifumi's mom did her. My situation wasn't as bad but being known as Gaijin Renshi kind of sucked.
    I kind of want Hifumi to be added as a party member for future DLC, I'd love to see her cut loose with a naginata.

    This probably doesn't have any right to be posted on here, but did anyone else think that Shiho Suzui would have made an awesome confidant and possibly phantom thief? Like, her confidant could be helping her get back on her feet and comfortable at school after her suicide attempt. idk, but the scene with her and Joker meeting in the hallway and having that little talk with each other made me really like her character and it's kinda sad that the last we saw of her was in Ann's confidant. I think she would have been such an interesting character to explore.

    At 3:42, I think the phrase you're looking for is "living vicariously through."
    As for Hifumi, she's definitely an interesting character, with the rigged matches being a nice twist that turns the confidant on its head. She's definitely one of the better non-party confidants, even if she doesn't quite have what it takes to be an actual party member without being substantially rewritten (her mother's too minor and unrelated to the plot to be a Palace target, and you don't see Hifumi interacting with many people besides the protagonist.)
    Hifumi has an interesting relationship with her mother, particularly the conflict between her loyalty to her family and her desire to be a shogi player. It's nice that in the end, she takes responsibility for everything, and doesn't even blame her mother for the fixed matches and resulting damage to her reputation.
    Regarding Christmas and Valentine's day, while it's sad that the protagonist has to go back home, it's heartwarming that all the confidants are fine with a long distance relationship, especially since they'd already dealt with you spending 2 months in juvenile detention (which could potentially have lasted years if your party hadn't found the woman you saved).
    I actually liked Mamoru from P3. His link has a bittersweet ending in which he gives up going to college and doing track to care for his family, and it's a nice look at what it means to make sacrifices for those you care about.

    1. I appreciate a pretty girl who embraces her dorkieness.
    2. If I where in the Joker’s position (I named him Arthur Jones for my playthrough) I would probably pick a girl outside my immediate friend group because in my experience romance in friend groups cause issues.
    3. I decided to commit during the Hawaii part because the whole breaking away from the friend group to meet up with a girl they don’t know seemed kinda romantic to me. It’s kinda like my character has a life outside of the Phantom Thieves that they don’t know about. Lol

I Rank stupid Ryuji to Rank 6 early game, then to 10+ toward the end of the game, mainly so I can rake in on Hifumi's Rank 7!.

      i think we might follow a pattern of like party member, regular confidant, and then one of the confidants that completes on its own like Fool then loop around

      @Fitherfith  7 років тому

      I have no clue honestly we thought we were gonna do something for 2k, then we were like ok we'll do it for 2500, now we're like we'll do something for 3k. We have SOMETHING on the way but I dunno if it'll count as a 3k special.

      @trdl23 6 років тому +10

      No, Satan is its own Persona

      @pezdispencer113 5 років тому +1

      In Christian mythology Satan and luficer are different characters. One is a fallen angel and the other was like the source of all evil. I think one corrupted the other. No idea which is which though
