Romancing Akechi during third semester is so unbelievably cruel to Ren. You romance him because it seems like you've been given a second chance with him, and then you're told you have to let him go. And he wants you to, as well. Akechi seems to be someone that Ren can't keep. So painful I love it lmao
Hey, sorry for the bother, but others have asked about Iwai and Maruki in other videos. Is there a possibility that it may happen in the future as a way to balance the amount of partners? Regardless, thank you so much for the mod! It's incredible!
YOU DID INCREDIBLE WORK WITH THIS MOD!!!!!! Thanks so much for all your hard work! And thank you OP for the video! The route makes me so happy I'm so appreciative and thankful for the hatd work!
@@bluesky0152 I did not plan on doing Maruki or Iwai. Perhaps in the future after I perfect the four out now, but not right now. Also, I do not know what Denuvo is, so probably not lol
@@Alive_Neptunadenuvo is anti piracy protection that some PC games like Persona 5 have, its why you cant play this game offline for long despite it being a single player game
This is amazing. I LOVE how despite dating, Akechi still stays in character & isn’t super lovey-dovey. The little details, like his focus on completing Maruki’s Palace, the Sky Tower date linking to his Engine Room death and his comment about not eating much, are impeccable. Love love LOVE this!!!!
Lol I recorded them in a different order than what the video is presented here (for example the room date is numerically the first one that pops up in event ids) and after getting his best and okay reactions I figured I didn’t need to do it anymore.
I wonder if when Akechi mentions not eating much is a past habit, could that have something to do with growing up in a neglectful foster system? Getting enough food can be a real problem. Excellent video.
Absolutely. But if it *wasn't* that, I was also thinking it could lend into the 'detective prince' image that he was forced to have, having a sort of idol diet?
@@SoggycereaIThis is from official sources I just dont remember if it was a QnA or an interview, but in his briefcase he keeps very little things like light snacks and stuff for when he shows up on TV .ie im imagining some light makeup/a brush-comb etc (dude also says in the metaverse that for lunch he gets weirs looks cuz he only gets an apple so who knows) And the fact that he tried to convince Sae to get actual sushi with him might be related to the fact that he's not good at cooking (this is from the jazz club) and just eats stuff on the go
It was mentioned in one of the guidebooks that he doesn't get much enjoyment from food. He only eats at famous places to post on his detective prince social media. He also can't cook. As to why then yeah probably due to his neglected childhood. Cooked meals are a language of love, and he had none of that.
he would be well within his rights to do so because any version of me that cheats on my glorious king akechi is clearly an impostor trying to steal my identity
I mean, there’s no proof that Akechi is gay at all. This is just a want from the fans, which is great, I do hope the next game allows a bi protagonist and I think it will. But they don’t need to do anything.
@@marcelinescoldfry Bruh, with how much abuse and trauma Akechi endured in-canon, pretty sure the person's sex is a non-factor, so much as TRUSTING them is.

You know, if we can't at least have a female option to play as in the next persona game, can we PLEASE just have the option to romance someone of the same sex? Like, you almost did it for Yosuke back in 2008, so like you can definitely do it 15± years later??
@@DigitalStarry its kinda crazy how much homophobic stuff is in newer persona games, considering theres also canon lesbians in p2 and 3 canon bisexual characters in p3
I wish atlus put this in, for any game really. Not just bc gat ships but I personally just prefer some guy characters, I guess our only choice is if we get a female mc. Never forget scrapped Yosuke route..
I wrote something for the 4:39 timestamp "Up there are the stars Deneb, Altair, and Vega" You said to me when you showed me the Summer Triangle I remember And look at the sky Gazing to the right, I found Orihimesama But never could I find her love Hikoboshisama And like that, I'm truly all alone As we stood and gazed up From this world that was black as night The stars looked like They were falling from the sky Who knows how long it's been? Or when it all began? My pursuit of you Goes on without an end I beg of you, my dear Don't be overcome with fear Just look at me And listen to The love I have for you
Never played the game myself so idk if it's the mod or not, but props to the henry V reference with the glove :D i think shakespeare would love persona 5 royal
Sorry I cant edit it after posting it. I apologize for how fast it is, my reading speed is fast so I don’t notice and auto mode is broken with these events and skips whole lines when I tried it

Hi, thanks for uploading this video! I’d like to translate it into Chinese and upload it to Bilibili. May I have your permission to do this? I will include a link to your original video and channel in the description.
Whoever made this, thank you!!!! But as much as I love and want this in game, it’d be even more heartbreaking to let Akechi die at the end 😢 Also Atlus needs to get their sh** together. They need guy romances too. Getting tired of the lady’s man stuff from persona games now
I already addressed this multiple times but I read really fast and so it doesn’t feel fast to me. I couldn’t use auto to manually time it since it doesn’t work with the new events so I had to time it myself.
If anyone from Atlus is watching...it's sad that fans have to mod your game to get some same sex romance options. Would it really hurt to include it into your games? I mean you already goofed and showed this was possible before the final edit with "Honey, I'm home" that ultimately went nowhere. Stop making the fans have to work so hard for inclusion please.
Dont know because I used mod menu to load the events. From what I know its best to load a save before the third semester starts when you install the mod

I think it could have been WAY worse. The modders have done a really good work with the character. When clicking this video I was afraid to see Akechi passionately smooch Joker lmao
This is like Yu romancing Adachi or Matoko/Kotone romancing Ikutsuki...and I love it. Literally falling in love with the backstabber...God this is so lovably goofy.
