While many of the crimes he investigates are manipulated for Shido's benefit, his work alongside Sae Niijima and the Tokyo police would've undoubtedly led Akechi to investigate some real crimes. For instance, Akechi is famously a teenage detective. All in all, Akechi's highly multifaceted character arc provides more than enough material to inspire a game that retells Persona 5 from Akechi's perspective.Īkechi's complicated place in Persona lore provides all kinds of storytelling opportunities, but an Akechi spinoff could be highly mechanically distinct too. Akechi may not regret sacrificing everything to destroy Shido, but his ties to Persona 5's other characters could still make him contemplate his direction in life. For instance, a Persona 5 spinoff about Akechi might see the Detective Prince ask himself what he wants out of life after he exacts vengeance on Shido. While an Akechi game shouldn't try to redeem him, since Akechi's refusal to seek redemption is crucial to his character, it could still reflect his character arc in some interesting ways. An Akechi spinoff could give these feelings center stage, letting fans watch Akechi's perspective on Joker and the Phantom Thieves evolve over time. Akechi's complicated relationship with Joker weighs heavily on him throughout the game, but Persona 5 players don't get to see that up close until the game's final act. He simultaneously appreciates Joker as a peer with a different worldview and despises Joker for having everything Akechi wants in life without the same effort. Although he's an enemy to the Phantom Thieves for most of the game, he's very close with Joker, the Persona 5 player character. So if this is the last I’m on here, I just want to say thank you to every single person who ever saw my blog.Persona games often include at least a minor human antagonist that the player's party has to deal with, but Akechi's role stands out within the franchise. Will I come back? Well, I cannot say one way or the other, but likely not. In the meantime, I will be leaving for now. If you happen to see this, consider yourself sent this same message. Scrolling through my dash and finding so much amazing content. The time I woke up to nearly 200 notes on an incorrect quote in a 24-hour period (much to my surprise). I remember all the good times I had on here: the grin that would come to my face for every person who enjoyed my writings or found my incorrect quotes amusing. It just…gives me such a euphoric happiness that it’s hard to explain. Oh where do I begin? I really wish I could indulge in this hobby more often. Or reading that random thing I wrote years ago because it made me happy. Or, at least, gives me something to focus on. Whether it’s listening to music or dabbling with creating it, music is what keeps me sane even on the days it feels like everything is falling apart. But I really don’t deserve the people in my life who I am privileged enough to call “friend”. ![]() ![]() I don’t think this is too much of a shocker. ![]() Something I admittedly struggle with a lot. A shame, really.īut that’s not what this is about. While I miss writing about Shuake and all, I just don’t have the muse or time anymore. I just…have fallen from this hyperfixation. Admin: I haven’t been on this in over a year omg.
