The book trophy is easy. There aren't any missable books, although you do need to do to the following things at least once:

- Batting cages
- Fishing
- Play a video game

Fortunately there's nothing like the Polyland flag in P4.

Every Sunday you can get juice in the Shibuya Underground (5000 yen) which will raise a specific stat by +1. The drinks don't switch off until you buy the one listed.

Mishima's negative Funky.

Fortunately, the rest of the cast still manage to make the net Funky positive.

Yeah that's insanely helpful, though it can be easy to forget because sometimes you'll only have the evening to go there or whatever. Still, my friend ended up missing like one level in one link, and he probably could have made it if he did this.

The plant nutrients are fantastic too.

Thankee kindly.
One thing I like about the P5 Good/Bad Ending Decision:

They don't ask you to choose who you think is the traitor unlike P4. Because it's so blindingly obvious, and everyone else also figures it out at that point. Not only is it better thematically (P4 is all about finding the truth, while P5 is just Screw The Police), but it also shows how much more competent the P5 cast is.

Even better is when you have the choice to sell out your fellow Thieves, and then your Confidants, but when Sae asks if Goro was on your team all your responses amount to a very pointed, "No. He wasn't."

I really love that Akechi being the traitor isn't at all the twist. It's not another "who's the killer?" from Persona 4. The twist isn't that Akechi is the traitor--every player knows that well before that moment--but that the Phantom Thieves also figured out long before and set him up. It's really satisfying and fun and felt really appropriate for Persona 5 in particular.

Just completing the game, just rounding 81 hours. Fantastic stuff from a first time SMT/Persona player. I'm super pissed I maxed all confidants except Haru rank 8 but I feel like I will do a NG+ run for sure and possibly attempt the plat.

Thanks for all the help, don't think I've ever played a game this long before it occupied pretty much my entire April and I loved every minute of it.

I'm about to hit November and I feel like I completely hosed up my confidants and only have a few at 10 and I feel like I ruined everything.

How many free days do I have left, anyway? Like 20? I think I heard 11/19 is when poo poo hits the fan and railroads you into the end? Fuckin' half of october was forced sleeping.

So, on looking up the bad endings after getting the true ending, the only one they gave for Shido was if you blow it off entirely, Akechi arrests you himself.

What happens if Akechi already ate a bullet but you didn't go back to the ship?

You have more free days than you think. Your spoiler is only half true--you're not railroaded at all at that point, or not more than usual. There'll be a few days of plot stuff but then you can run around freely again. The last free day is 12/17. Well, actually you have one more day after that on 12/23.

Yeah that was brilliant. That might put them over the edge to being my favorite persona cast, though it could be because I'm still in the honeymoon phase. Still, get dunked on Akechi.

Yeah, I think they're my favorite, too. Part of it is that I kinda feel like Persona 5 was a Persona game made to appeal specifically to me, but I thought the game did a lot of great stuff with the cast. I know some people have said they didn't feel like they came together as a group as well as the P4 cast but I don't really agree. The only one who never really felt fully integrated was Haru--she should've been introduced earlier, because she's great but just doesn't get enough time.

Yeah agreed. I was thinking of rectifying that slightly by going her romance route the second time, but that's if I can get over Joker not being with his canon girlfriend and future wife Makoto.

I almost never romance anyone new on a replay of these games. Makoto is 100% canon and the One True Best Girl so I'm sure Joker will be dating her again whenever I play through another time.

I was pretty annoyed at how late Haru comes in as well. If (When) they do a golden style remake, more time developing Haru is my number one wish. I never even finished her S.Link because her required stat was my last to level. I had already been dating makoto for a while anyway, so there was no way I would have thought to choose her. Well, I guess that is what NG+ is for.

Is there a situation like in Persona 4 where once you finish the final dungeon it skips to the ending? Or can I finish the final palace quickly and gently caress about like usual?

Fortune is 100k to start so you'll probably want a decent chunk above that.
