Also the only Palace ruler that wasn't openly malevolent to the Phantom Thieves. Sure, she was skeptical and a little defensive, but most, if not all the dangers in her Palace were pretty much out of her control entirely.
Well, gaining a Persona, aiding in a battle immediately after gaining it, and doing an instant escape from a f'ing pyramid all in one go would be draining on anyone, never mind a shut in. Add to that all the hell that she went through before that, and... Honestly, she's earned that sleep, and I think that it's likely the first peaceful sleep that she's had in a really long time, all things considered.
Shadow Futaba is the truest form of a pure shadow, because not everyone is evil inside. Some want to understand the truth. So because she had a palace, but wasn't evil, therefore, her Shadow is her pure embodiment of her form of rebellion.
Because shadows want to gone so they try to help the person to realize the the thing that they have to realize in order for the shadow to gone. The best example is basically all shadow selfs in persona 4 where they try to convince the person to realize that the shadow is a part of them (because that was the thing you had to do in the TV world to make your shadow gone and replace it with a persona).
Considering her "act of rebellion" was "seeking the truth," it is a nice parallel to P4, and considering her repressed emotions were "positive," it would only make sense that it would try to keep her alive rather than kill her.
Futaba's awakening is always a fun scene. Will Power is an especially fitting track for Cognitive Wakaba's fight, especially when the guitar gets real into it while the scenes happen. Oh, and one thing the game doesn't make very clear is why those tentacles came out of her Persona; it's actually not some non-sequitur they put in for fanservice, since her Persona is Necronomicon. You know that cursed book in the Lovecraft Mythos that has information about all the universe? The fact that it's tied to Lovecraft's Eldritch Abominations is why tentacles came out of it (remember, a lot of the depictions of those things have tentacles in their designs, Cthulhu especially). So the game was a little too clever for its own good (although the devs probably knew what that'd look like and did it anyway). The only real gripe I have about this scene is that line right before the boss starts from Futaba; "That's gotta go!" For some reason, it just doesn't flow right to me; I feel like something like "She's gotta go!" or "That thing's gotta go!" would've fit better. Regardless, this is one of my favorite Persona Awakenings, because it's so heartfelt.
3:11 this was super cool. I love seeing Joker actually play his role as Leader. Like, leader doesn't just mean "Gonna tell these guys what to do". Being a Leader to Joker means trusting his team and his team trusting him. This obviously comes with him looking out for them as much as they do him.
That was so sick when you used physical reflect. I love and hate that I never thought of it. It's brilliant! And at first I was like "Why are they refusing the ballista? Whoever uses it is safe" XD
You know, I'm starting wonder what would happen if Kamoshida, Madarame, and Kaneshiro met their shadows...well and the next three palace rulers but we're not there yet.
Well shadow Kamoshida tried to kill the real Ann for trespassing and “impersonating” his version of her, so he would probably try to kill the real him as well
God Damn Omega!! O_0 I know i seen this many times in the past and that your MO, but damn man! You killing the boss by killing itself. Holy A'nian that never stop to surprising me O_O"
I've been watching P4 recently, so I half-expected "I'll Face Myself" after Futaba's Awakening. (I don't like the boss theme in P5 anyways, good thing it swaps out in the second half.) Also, Celica-chan is so cute when she isn't selling her soul to men in black- er, I mean Duma!
Like I said the first time this was uploaded, this makes me miss Ghen. There's a distinct lack of "AAAAAAHHH!!!!" with this battista bindeding. *insertion of tentacle hentai joke here*
After reading the longer top comment here, holy shit Atlus did a great fucking job here. Thankfully I nor anyone close to me has depression or other mental illness that I know of, but that comment was spot on, and was better to read before watching. 15:36 In other news, I was waiting something sour and got a buff off in my throat and reacted like Futaba at the exact same moment so that's cool
@@PrimeBukkIT no you were right, honestly most aren't really that logical, I would have assumed Gemini if I didn't know that one wasn't just a Roman numeral 2
i got VERY lucky for this boss fight (mercy mode): boss inflicted MC with abnormal stats and was supposed to OTK me next turn with her "all out atk". I though i was going to die and have to retry all over again, but i got that physical barrier iten; reflected over 3k dmg ^^. Now i know that there is a very interesting way to exploit tech dmg from this game hahaha ^^
Female character abilities what? Bulma and Lanch(blond gangster lady) could make bullets work on someone like Goku (even when he shoed be imune despite Z not even be there)
This scene doesn't really work for me, and I think it's because they keep using the word "adults". It makes her sound like she's throwing a tantrum, not overcoming her fears.
I love how this Shadow is repressed positive emotions rather than repressed negative ones. I kinda wish we get more of this in the future.
Also the only Palace ruler that wasn't openly malevolent to the Phantom Thieves. Sure, she was skeptical and a little defensive, but most, if not all the dangers in her Palace were pretty much out of her control entirely.
makoto: "the treasure must be inside"
Joker: DAMNIT I RAN OUT OF LOCKPICKS
That so true
God dammit Morgana.
Time to craft some Eternal Lockpicks.

Futaba: MAGICKAZAM!!! *Summons Ballista*
Futaba: MAGICKAZAM!!! *Escapes Palace Instantly*
Futaba: MAgickazammmzzz... *Sleeps for a month while ignoring responsibilities*
I'm jealous.
That's some QUALITY sleep, right there. I sometimes wish I could do that. (Not for a literal MONTH, but think how rested up you would feel!)
Well, gaining a Persona, aiding in a battle immediately after gaining it, and doing an instant escape from a f'ing pyramid all in one go would be draining on anyone, never mind a shut in. Add to that all the hell that she went through before that, and...

Phantom Kirin except she apparently did stuff like this before awakening according to Sojiro

+omegaevolution An Inkling is a squid and a kid combine. So let's say she's an Inkling
omegaevolution At least Futuba has an appearance similar to an Inkling Girl.
I am so glad I'm not the only one who sees that.
@@joshmccalip6053 oh i get it now.
I love that Futaba's Shadow helped the real one to reach out to the truth. Also- "Don't mess with the Phantom thieves!" *Bang*
Considering her "act of rebellion" was "seeking the truth," it is a nice parallel to P4, and considering her repressed emotions were "positive," it would only make sense that it would try to keep her alive rather than kill her.
it does remind you of person 4 though.
"reach out to the truth"
did you just
Damn right he did....
OMG i just realized how much foreshadowing there was there.
This is the most helpful shadow ever.
I love how everyone else’s shadow is evil and Futaba is just: “Nah we cool fam”
I loved her shadow, she was cool than the hotness of the palace desert
useless if rng was having a bad day
futaba didnt say the n word, "notme"
that's why it worked out in the end
“I am thou- prepare yourself!” Quality monologue there Yusuke.

What about her second awakening? It's a giant smiley face.
I thought it was the final boss from Okami.
Yami? Lol
There’s also a pentagram underneath it
Due to her hacker background, most likely

I still think that besides Kamoshida’s and Shido’s palace, Futaba’s palace is the best emotional/story beat in the game
28:03 RIP Yusuke
He is used to it by now xD
28:40
He wasn't even touching her ... poor guy :D
F
Oof
Futaba’s awakening was the best, and great callback to Persona 4.
Would have been nice if she told her shadow self, "You are me and I am you"
I am thou and thou art I are the same thing but in Shakespearean.
To this day, lucky punch's animation/sound effect is just so funny. Its a squeaky toy as it attacks. XD
party physical reflect OP on this boss, 3762 damage 👌😆
That's just ONE of four reflects, since the numbers stack. It's actually strong enough to OHKO the boss.
Mabye the DMG REFLECT From the party is 940.5[× 4 (since everyone have the Physicial Ointment) = 3762( Total DMG)]
That’s a lot of damage!
Now that I think about it, the Futaba heist reminds me of counselling therapy.
who needs a catapult when you have a physical wall, Catapults are lame
They are so last millennium :p
omegaevolution You mean exploding wall, right?
Actually, it was a ballista.
3 thousand damage dealt with physical ointment! Damn...
well it was a full party attack and all 4 hits got reflected back
Oh yeah I forgot about that trick.
15:23 she'll face herself, but with her shadow's help :O
That Tetrakarn turn was a thing of beauty.
“I’m gonna do what’s called a pro gamer move”
32:20 wait for futaba to wake up so she can get up and get out there
I've said it once and I'll say it again: I've seen enough hentai to see where that spaceship and tentacles is taking Futaba. All hail our new Oracle.
Why?
FBI should be knocking on this door any minute now
FBI OPEN UP
Wtf don't remind me that-
22:30 did joker just *SNAP*?
“You should have gone for the head.”
You know, I'm starting wonder what would happen if Kamoshida, Madarame, and Kaneshiro met their shadows...well and the next three palace rulers but we're not there yet.
*O I.*
They probably won't care.
Well shadow Kamoshida tried to kill the real Ann for trespassing and “impersonating” his version of her, so he would probably try to kill the real him as well
27:18 talk about flying cars
Talk about flying *cats
And now we know, the most powerful thing in the world is the almighty GUN
Just A Scrub
That and Physical Ointment
We've seen enough enough hentai to see where this is going
That awakening for futaba never gets old.
And suddenly futaba was subjected to the internets dirtiest of dirty minds. "Oh the poor corrupted youth"
that is EXACTLY what i said when i played this part.
Enough enough
Kirby’s calling the police
HA! And this is why Tetrakarn/Makarakarn was nerfed so it protects one target! :P
:|
(Also, to prevent immediate A.I. Megido[la/on] spam...)
I recently beat this level i really cry when she made amends to her Dead mother
19:52 "Shut up! You are not my REAL mom"
defeating cognitive wakaba
GTA style
17:38 is the best still image ive ever seen
28:42 RIP Yusuke
And Ryuji 27:32
Yusuke:I’ll end it! *proceeds to do 58 damage while it has plenty of health*
Futaba forever!
23:23 This part is just so funny.
God Damn Omega!! O_0 I know i seen this many times in the past and that your MO, but damn man! You killing the boss by killing itself. Holy A'nian that never stop to surprising me O_O"
I saw what you did with Joker’s weapon, you clever little sneak.
2:12 is it just me, or is that a screaming goat?
Yusuke sucks play along. He's too pure innocent
Funny how a couple of teenagers found out the truth of what Wakaba was reasearching for so long.
inside a toddler's mind
a freaking toddler found out inbetween almost to even more than a enitre organisation of nerds
17:36 i just really like this part
23:23 biggest sike ever
This awakening is a bit of a callback to Persona 4 where you face the truth
Makoto : Let's use the ballista.
Joker : NAH let's just let make her kill herself
But damn 3762 damage holy shit.
Nesouk Kefka tfw you make the source of a suicidal girl’s cognitive distortion kill itself
3,762 ÷ 4 = 940.5 WTF
This game is just so freaking cute in general. I love those animated cutscenes
THIS GAME AREN’T CUTE
The way you cheesed this fight ended up implemented in Royal, and that'll always be funny.
26:56 One of my favorite and funny anime cutscenes in this game.
Oh the pyramid cutscene XD I didn’t know it was here!
Can I send the Reaper to the men in black? Or will I have to go all Black Mask on them?
I've been watching P4 recently, so I half-expected "I'll Face Myself" after Futaba's Awakening. (I don't like the boss theme in P5 anyways, good thing it swaps out in the second half.)
Also, Celica-chan is so cute when she isn't selling her soul to men in black- er, I mean Duma!
Observato So Celica traveled to Shibuya?
Or Magilou became a hacker and a shut in... much how you think she'd probably act in a modern setting.
I actually like the theme. It’s pretty good and it’s name “Blooming Villain” is awesome too. Those beats.
It would have been a nice throw back
"You are me and I am you"
26:59 Paused and play few times right there and you see how funny joker pose is
Like I said the first time this was uploaded, this makes me miss Ghen. There's a distinct lack of "AAAAAAHHH!!!!" with this battista bindeding.
*insertion of tentacle hentai joke here*
3:58 he used sandman in a desert
Logic
A least Makoto was quick on her feet after that exit, but geez Ryuji...have you learned nothing.....and....let's just ignore Yusuke's dumb remark
3762 damage lmao
that physical damage amp against that boss is just brutal
It kills me to see Futaba like this especially after seeing how she is truly
Man what kind of sick bastards kill a little girls mother, and then blame her faking it as a maternally motivated suicide.
Definitely one of my favorite bosses in the whole game.
19:24 perfectly lines up with the music
Boss fight.
That. Was. AWESOME!
27:14 Holy gorsh! It looks like a new record!
Joker as smooth as ever

Maybe _juuuuust_ maybe, if Futaba took off her headphones, she would be fine.

Jeezus. She is so damn tough. Nearly wiping joker out several times. Under 100 hp several times jeezus. She did about 100 hp of damage.
