Moltrey posted:oh yeah, i've seen theories going around that Goro is either a half brother to either Futaba or Makoto, depending on the theory, and I just wanna say that's one of the most bonkers things I've heard in my lfie Futaba is entirely plausible; there are only two named characters who could possibly be her biological father and one of them is Shido. Of course the alternative theory is far preferable. I have no idea what bizarre contortions of theory could lead to Makoto, though.

I think the only party members you couldn't reasonably spin as a traitor are probably Ann and Futaba, the rest all have some hook or storyline where they could totally have betrayed you. Ryuji would probably be too much a repeat of Junpei though.

With Makoto, she's a lot more hesitant during that part of the story so it could be taken to be that it's because she's betraying you.

Does Haru ever even swear She's pure not remotely believable as a traitor

P5 doesn't really do subtlety, so if Shido was Futaba's dad you'd have heard about it. A lot.

I really can't imagine a scenario that has Futaba as the traitor. She owes her life to the group and is always hugely invested in what they're doing. edit: Glad we're in agreement.

None of those are very compelling arguments for Makoto.

They're not, but if you're looking for the traitor and didn't make the pancakes connection or suspect Akechi because there's no way it's this obvious, then there's plenty of bits in the game to make you go "maybe it's..."

I know you guys are mainly taking about the sellout angle, but I'm imagining a version of p5 where your party members are serial killers as determined by RNG and it's hilarious.

All you have to remember is the look of disgust that Akechi shows in private when he sees the Phantom Thieves doing something morally just. That alone should make it quite clear that you should no't trust him.

So like does the Akechi love have anything behind it besides "he's hot" I can respect that I guess but he's way more popular than I'd expect

Persona 5-2 will feature Akechi coming back but he'll be wearing Skull's mask for some reason. He'll also be the only returning playable character.
