Today, we go deeper into the request from Alibaba in what exactly they want, which leads us down a wild rabbit hole of lore… Strap in, folks.

Ooh this sounds very intriguing
I can’t wait to see what type of request this will be!
NicoB actually kept responding with “Who are you again?”, whenever possible to Alibaba, and she kept saying “My name is Alibaba”, though she was clearly irritated.
Repetition is welcome in the Metaverse.
i love persona 5 royal, too bad i played it after strikers lol
intersting choice of firewords!
TFW you realize the lady that Boss has been talking to on the phone has been his daughter…
Hilarious misunderstandings are welcome in the Metaverse.
Surely nothing more interesting than a mementos request… right?
Futaba is my favorite character in Persona 5! I'm so happy we are FINALLY here! ❤️
Futaba >>> all other girls (FIGHT ME BIATCHES)
I can’t wait for the next episode! Time for the best girl arc!
Hey over here some people swim in icy lake during winter :p
Akechi: PhantomThiefsayswhat?
Ryuji: What?
Akechi: Knew it
But honestly, how could Akechi possibly guess that our group is the Phantom Thieves? It's not like one of our hideouts was a walkway where hundreds of thousands of people could overhear us talking about our plans. It's not like Ryuji doesn't blurt out our identities in public half the time. It's not like a bunch of random people involved with targets who were eventually taken out by the Phantom Thieves are now hanging out together. Akechi has to be a mind reader. Because I don't see any clues they could've possibly left behind
Here's this infamous moment where you can't do any activities outside of Leblanc for several days in a row for reasons that are flimsy at best. And in a game that has so freaking many things to do, with building Confidants, building stats, hanging out with tsundere twin wardens, etc., it's definitely annoying…
7 Deadly Sins on Persona 5:
1. Kamoshida = Lust ( Complete )
2. Madarame = Vanity ( Complete )
3. Kaneshiro = Gluttony ( Complete )
…I thought Mona lets you go outside in Royal version… sobs
How does this supposed genius hacker who has access to most of out conversations somehow have an empty enough brain to think that the Phantom Thieves don't even need to know who they're trying to steal from? That all they need is a blank calling card and they can just grab a heart/desire out of thin air without knowing who it belongs to? Like, knowing who Alibaba is, their thought process obviously isn't normal, but that's still feels like a very obvious oversight.
The idea that the Fist of the Phantom Star, Makoto “I’ll Crush A Mob Boss Like A Fly” Niijima, is terrified of the dark to the point where she literally freezes up and just wants her sis to come save her is amazing.
Also, gives me the headcannon that Sae did in fact help Makoto if she had nightmares when they were both kids.
Yeah Akechi, sure, you're not suspecting them.
54:21 That dash to out-of-screen though…
55:33 Funny how not only Joker is completely still during the awkward situation but also how Evan would easily choose the Makoto's romance route.
oh yeah that's right, makoto is the biggest wuss ever. take her to a hunted house she gets scared very easily she starts to apologize to no one and grabs onto joker's leg cause he's like the closet to her
We have learned a lot about Alibaba, or should I say… FUTABA SAKURA!
Fun fact:
So you know how someone keeps calling Sojiro about stuff, yeah that wasn't a lady friend, it was Futaba.
Bs,Akechi. It's obvious you're suspecting them when they have an "hideout" where literally anyone could listen in on their conversations,and a loudmouth who blurts out their secret identities half the time
43:46 "Because I'm psychic! Just kidding,I just have good intuition"
Tomorrow's gonna be so much fun. <3
Now that they’ve got to this point, I wanna point out the foreshadowing that every time Sojiro was on the phone with someone when it sounded like he was talking to a woman, he was actually talking to futaba.
Futaba has appeared!
Personally, me and my sister called her 'Futabakins' when we were playing through Persona 5.
The scene when the camera pans over the Hacker Girl peeking in and Makoto screams and grabs Joker's leg is one of my favourite scenes in the game. It's hilarious. Amusingly enough, liberties the Persona 5 Anime takes aside, the scene is actually even BETTER in that, almost for the facial features alone, lol.
You never know what you have until you lose it. Today you have a "GO TO BED" shaped hole in your hearts.
…Meh, I'm sure he'll be back soon.
I LOVE Futaba's and Sojiro's relationship.
You can clearly see that they love each other and have a great relationship no matter Futaba's condition.

I can’t be the only one that can easily picture Akechi being The Riddler if the Persona 5 cast were put in Batman roles… Seriously, give that guy the question-mark-tipped cane!
Sae and Akechi’s dynamic is hilarious
Best character has been introduced
YYEEEAAAAAAHHH BABY THAT IS WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR WOOOOOOO
imo if ur stuck inside u should consider training since you get a game over if joker dies. a boost in max hp will do a lot if you do that consistently
Quick heads up. Check the empty shelf next to Charlie. If you get any decorations, you can put them there. Like the Ramen Bowl.
The part when Sojiro talks about how Futaba's mom's death is one of the saddest moments for me. I cry every time I hear about that story. I must say though Futaba's Arc is probably my favorite of the whole game. I also like how it is handled because of all the ones we've done so far this one is unique because we're trying to change the heart of someone who isn't evil which really breaks the pattern of what we been doing things up til now..
I gotta say that part when Makoto was getting all scared like they were in a haunted house is one of my favorite parts too. Also kind of leans towards how good a match Joker & Makoto are together as a couple. I am sure you were happy about that Evan being your favorite girl. I look forward to you progressing her Confidant in the future as well.
When it comes to Ryuji's big mouth you guys are so spot on. Its like waiting for the next time to hear him blurt out "WE ARE THE PHANTOM THIEVES!". We know he can be dumb at times, but we still love him! Looking forward to seeing you progress this story for Futuaba and this arc.
The best part about this is you really get to see how good a person Sojiro really is and was a really loving father as he's displayed to us already the fact he took Futaba in and not that lady's man type of guy you thought he was when you first met him. So all those times when you was talking on the phone to a "Girl" it was really just his daughter, Futaba!
