Same, Futaba. Same. Though, which one is the angel and which is the devil?

Screenshot from Persona 5: The Phantom X (P5X). They focus is on Futaba and Wonder (Protagonist) who are sitting in the center Leblanc booth. Futaba is in her winter outfit. Her portrait and dialogue bubble is overlaid. She is making a stern expression with her eyebrows narrowed. Her dialogue reads “The angel and devil inside me are fighting about if I should be more productive in my free time…!” In the booth behind them, Ann and Makoto are sitting across from each other. Ryuji and Ren (Joker) are in the Leblanc kitchen with their backs to the camera. All Shujin students are in their winter uniforms.

While we're here, Yoshizawa sending a photo from the false reality after the world reverts...

Screen capture from Persona 5 Royal showing the protagonist accessing his phone on March 3rd in game. He is receiving messages from Yoshizawa. In particular, she has sent him a photo of her and the protagonist from New Year’s Day at the Meiji Shrine. While March 3rd is in the true reality, the photo is from the false one. An annotated floating box reads “Yoshizawa sends a photo from the other reality on March 3rd.”

Xmas Post Facto - Chapter 57 archiveofourown.org/works/620529... Eight years after P5, Makoto and Ren start dating. They try to navigate their early relationship as normal adults, unaware of some loose ends from their days as Phantom Thieves… From chapter 1: archiveofourown.org/works/62052994

Screen capture from Persona 5 Royal showing the protagonist accessing his phone on March 14th (White Day) in game. He has brought up a group chat from January 1st where Ann shared a photograph of her, Makoto, Futaba, and Haru in kimono at the Meiji Shrine. Ryuji responds with "Huh? When'd you take this?" and Makoto with "It was before we met up with you uguys. We all bumped into each" (and the rest is cut off by the bottom of the screen). In the upper right, there is a quest: "Buy a gift at the flower shop." The image has been annotated with a floating box that says "Just casually accessing messages from the other reality in the middle of March."

...and now engineering going out on a Queen/Joker pair ❤️.

Screenshot from Persona 5: The Phantom X (P5X) showing a game of Tycoon. The player has only two cards left, which they have selected to play: the special queen of spades with the phantom thief Queen (Makoto Niijima) and a Joker card. The opponents are Futaba, Ryuji, and Ann. They are Rich, Poor, and Beggar respectively with 14, 4, and 10 cards remaining.

Just me engineering a Revolution of Queens & Jokers in Tycoon. #P5X (I suppose next time I should try to get the custom Queen card as one of them.)

Screenshot from Persona 5: The Phantom X (P5X) showing a hand with two Queens and two Jokers selected. The opposing players are Yusuke with 5 cards left (Rich, somehow), Ann with 12 cards left (Poor), and Futaba with 4 cards left (Beggar).

I like how Makoto's skirt flairs in all directions at the companio's Tycoon table. There's also something homey to me about how Makoto and Joker are sitting next to each other, largely relaxed and waiting to go. Meanwhile, Lufel and Ashiya are still pondering their next moves. #P5X

Screenshot from Persona 5: The Phantom X (P5X) showing four thieves sitting around a table in the Companio space, playing Tycoon. Makoto is in the lower right, Joker in the lower left, Lufel in the upper left, and Ashiya in the upper right. Makoto's Shujin winter outfit skirt flairs out in all directions since she is seated on a cylindrical stool. Lufel and Ashiya both have their hands on their chins while Makoto and Joker appear more ready with their next play.

Screenshot from Persona 5: The Phantom X (P5X) showing the protagonist (Wonder) kneeling in front of Runa Dogenzaka at their usual meeting spot near the Buchiko statue in Shibuya Station Square. Runa is squatting with her arms wrapped around her knees. Her portrait is distressed and her word bubble says "If things keep going like this, there's no way we can attract people to Shibuya. Even the children will stop coming!"

The shadow who gives the Hero's Shield in Metro of Desire is now dancing. I don't think he was before. I guess when they dropped the dancing one with Akihabara, he changes too. Must be Wonder's evolving cognition. #P5X

Screenshot from Persona 5: The Phantom X (P5X) from one platform in the Metro of Desire. This is a safe platform, well-lit with safety gates and no Mementos veins. Wonder is standing just outside the subway in his Velvet Room outfit. He is looking at a shadow that appears as a stout man in a blue flannel over a T-shirt and jeans. He is surrounded by black smoke as he is a shadow. He has one arm fully raised and pointing to the sky, his other half-bent, pointing in the same direction.

Seems like the right time to post this. Glad I got to see them. I know the poses differ photo to photo because mannequins shift in time and gravity or are moved to keep them out of reach, but I like to think the staff sometimes play with them or maybe they come to life at night.

Makoto must enjoy being surrounded by all these wonderful images of Ren... or does she feel a little embarrassed? Perhaps both? Meanwhile, Wonder pretty chill about his Thieves Den being dominated by Joker...

Screenshot from P5X (Persona 5: The Phantom X) showing Queen standing in a corner of the Thieves' Den gallery where there are images, much taller than her. One is the original Persona 5 box art with Ren at the center, one congratulatory image from Soejima for 550k copies shipped showing just Joker taking off his mask, and one with Ren and Mona by Soejima for the Playstation 2016 awards. There's an annotated note on top that says "Makoto just hanging out in the corner of giant pictures of her boyfriend."

Makoto's classic hair flip in chibi is so cute. Also her and Ren's similar expressions. Futaba warming her hands is cute too. So is Haru burying the bodies. Also, the snow in Ryuji & Yusuke's hair suggest a bigger snowball fight than just Ryuji! Was it Ann? Futaba? Is that why her hands are cold?

Chibi Persona 5 characters from the Persona 5 Royal x ANIPLUS Collaboration Cafe. Everyone is wearing their winter casual. The first row is Ren carrying a steaming coffee can or thermos, Morgana holding up a mini snow cat, Ryuji holding a snow ball in each hand with snow on his hair, Ann holding one hand out with a tiny clump of snow near it, and Yusuke drawing on a sketchpad, also with snow in his hair. The second row starts with Makoto doing her classic hair flip with her breath showing in the cold, Futaba squatting and blowing on her hands for warmth, Haru with a snow shovel, Akechi holding a coffee can in each hand but a different type than Ren's, and Sumi holding an umbrella with snow on it.

Looking forward to it! I really enjoy all of these little happy accidents (or "on-purposes") that we get to enjoy in this ship. There's so much to dig into in this game! Going a bit over the top at times is fun silliness too...

Old digital fan art of Joker re-creating the Charlie Conspiracy meme. It's a mostly line-art image with red spot-color. The papers on the wall include the number 8, an infinity sign, a scarf, a pair of gloves noted to be red, a love lock with the word 'eternal' circled, the double happiness character, and a box of chocolates with an R on the with "P5R??" written on it. Across several it just says "SHUMAKO."

Written in top is "Makoto is the 8th date in the OVA and 8 is auspicious and is infinity on its side and with the R on her chocolates means ETERNAL SHUMAKO canon in P5R!!!". Underneath is a "-me, most definitely not overthinking things for my ship."

I'm not quite through Tomoko's synergy yet but the New Years event has helped me interpret what's going on. #P5X

Three screenshots from Persona 5: The Phantom X (P5X) stacked. On top, Kotone's casual portrait is speaking "Oh, I completely forgot. Well, I'm looking for this..." In the middle, the screenshot shows Kotone, Tomoko, and Wonder at the drug store. Tomoko is dressed in her part-time job apron and kerchief. Kotone is holding out her phone so Tomoko and Wonder can see what she's searching for. In the final screenshot, we have Tomoko's dialogue portrait. She is blushing aid it has been edited to say "Kotone-san, that's a picture of me!"

It's interesting seeing how they use the old assets in #P5X. In Persona 5, you could only go to Chinatown on weekends because of the distance, whereas here it seems like a short romp from Shibuya Central Street. Also, eating while walking? What are you teaching them Wonder?

Screenshot from Persona 5: The Phantom X (P5X) showing Wonder, Caroline, and Justine. Wonder is holding a steamed pork bun. Caroline has a pork bun in each hand. Justine is holding a sugar-glazed fruit spear (kabob). The background is the one used for Chinatown (Yokohama) in the original Persona 5. It has a lot of food stalls along the street and hanging red lanterns. Overlaid text (added by me) notes "Wonder was so intimidated by the twins' glares that he took them all the way to Yokohama Chinatown."

PixieRed @pixiered.bsky.social · 25/12/2025

The twins feel off to me. I'm not used to them sniping at each other so much. I prefer to think they're really from a third reality: the one with Boom Boom Bungee. #P5X Coming soon: AU where Haru's father was an extreme sports enthusiast.

Pair of screenshots from Persona 5: The Phantom X (P5X) featuring Caroline (& Justine). The top screenshot shows Caroline looking at a sign for Boom Bang Burger on Central Street in Shibuya. Her cut-in is overlaid and her dialogue box says "Boom Bang Burger? Wasn't it called something different?" The second screenshot shows Caroline and Justine standing next to Wonder. Caroline has her normal dialogue box and is saying "No, maybe it was Big Bon Bon? Or maybe, Bang Bang Bungee...?"

Learned my Eight Years After fic series is incorrect regarding Yusuke's future career. Smart of him to use different characters in his name.

Photo of a slip for stunt actor Kitagawa Yusuke, showing the actor from the waist up and listing some of his TV and movie roles. He is dressed in a dark blue ninja outfit but with the face masked pulled down to show most of his face. In English, it states he is with Japan Action Enterprise and his name is Kitagawa Yusuke. The characters for his name however are different from the ones used by the Persona 5 character.

The problem with throwback Thursday is that somehow I'm always busy on Thursday. I missed last week and never got around to posting the other photos I found two weeks ago. Halloween season, don't go away yet!

Photograph of Nendoroid Figures of Queen (Makoto Niijima) and Joker from Persona 5. Queen is wearing a large witch hat and is without her mask. Joker is without his mask. He is in a jack-o-lantern cauldron filled with orange silly grass. His hands are on the edge as he looks down at Queen who is staring up at him, her arm raised. In the background there are large black cats with jack-o-lanterns and other orange and black decorations.

Another Thursday, another chance to decorate the place with a few older works of mine, this time a couple of instances of Queen being the Phantom Thief of Joker's Shirts.

Fan are of Joker and Queen (Ren and Makoto) from Persona 5. Makoto is standing in front, wearing Ren's Velvet Room prison black and white shirt. Ren is in back, with his back facing the screen but looking over his shoulder, wearing his Velvet Room prison black & white striped pants. The background suggests they may be in the Velvet Room.

I only consciously realized now that Orobas has human-like fingers. I pulled him in P5X but I wonder if he'd be better off in that horse girl game I keep hearing about.

Orobas from Persona 5. He is a red and white horse with a green-black mane and glowing mint eyes who stands on his hind legs (not shown). His fore arms have human fingers. This is cropped from a screen shot from the SMT wikia.

Screenshot from Persona 5 Royal showing the Joker with both hands pushing against a set of double doors marked "VVIP" (which I am interpreting WIP for this post).

Just me taking the first in-game opportunity to see how close I can get them to holding hands... I'd put this 'almost holding hands' trope level but I guess if I censored it, one wouldn't know either way 🤔.

Screenshot from Persona 5 showing Ren and Makoto (Joker and Queen) inside Kaneshiro's Palace on 6/20. Makoto is in her summer school uniform. Ren is in his summer casual. They are standing class to each other such that it looks almost like they're going to hold hands.

Interesting to see such an early look at Revival Narukami...

Screenshot from the 2015 E3 Trailer for Persona 5 showing Joker's All out Attack cut-in only with his hair recolored to be closer to the gray of the Persona 4 protagonist. This early version of the image shows Joker with a extremely wide and evil looking smirk and his eyes more slanted and pulled up into his hair. In comparison to the one we got in game, it is rather striking as the face is more akin to the way the series portrays antagonist character when they are ranting something particular evil or twisted.

Ann's final line here along with the use of portraits just makes me smile every time I come across these. #Persona5 (P5 screenshots & other files spring cleaning continues...)

Edited series of screenshots from Persona 5 Royal depicting Ryuji and Ann having a conversation in the Thieves' Den while they look at the ATM people from Kaneshiro's Palace.

Ryuji, in his default portrait, says, "Y'know, I feel like we had a way easier time with Palaces after Makoto joined."

Ann, head leaning to the side and smiling, replies, "She wrapped her head around all that cognition stuff so quickly, too. She really is the brains of the Phantom Thieves.

Then Ryuji, still default portrait looking happy, says, "For real! We sure as hell weren't gonna fill that role ourselves."

Finally, Ann, using her facing-left portrait and looking sad, says, "...Wait, isn't that kind of sad?"

A downside of buying things streaming these days is I don't get to look at pretty boxart as much as I used to. At least I saw these! Going with both of each characters forms was classy though I miss something more dynamic/composed. Love that Crunchroll displays the set with our pair back to back!

Apropos of nothing, let's have some Nanako images! (okay, okay, have a rough week ahead of me and could use a pick me up...)

Special edition cover from the Persona Awards 2 Blu-Ray featuring Nanako Dojima, Koromaru, and the Persona 3 and 4 Protagonists (let’s call them Minato and Yu). Nanako is wearing a Shujin Academy girl’s winter uniform with the standard white turtle neck with small black bow on the neck, black blazer with red buttons, and plaid skirt. She also has a small black cap with cat ears like Morgana, red and black striped leggings, and a small cape. She is sitting on an ornate red sofa with gold legs between Koromaru and Yu. Koromaru is wearing Arsene’s top hat, a white ascot, and a black blazer with his usual white wings. Yu is wearing a black tuxedo with a white button shirt and yellow pocket square. Minato is leaning over the back of the sofa, wearing a black tuxedo with white shirt and blue vest.

Screenshot from Persona 4 Golden featuring Nanako and Narukami. They are in the Dojima living room. Nanako is seated in her usual seat near the sliding door to the outside. Narukami is standing talking to her. Nanako has the speech bubble that says “I’ve been studying a lot. My teacher says I’m a fast learner!” She has an eyes-closed smiling portrait with her usual Neopolitan dress. The television is showing a children’s program with actors in a panda costume, other mascot costume, and person in a dress.

Screenshot from Persona 4 Golden featuring Nanako and Narukami seated in the Dojima living room watching the TV news. Unlike normally where they sit across from each other, they are seated next to each other with Nanako having come around to Narukami’s side. Narukami is sitting cross-legged on the purple pillow and has his head turned to the left to look at Nanako who is sitting on her knees next to him. Nanako is in her summer casual dress and Narukami is in his short sleeved white button up.
