Man, imagine if Sae had actually come along with Futaba & Zenkichi here and *she* had also gained a Persona (so that she would go from having been a Palace Ruler in the original game to a Persona-user in Strikers, that would have made for quite the interesting character arc).

There’s something oddly poetic about Zenkichi and Akane’s dynamic. They’re the same as the Phantom Thieves in that it’s a kid unable to fight back to an adult, but different in whose right and wrong. Zenkichi was wrong to put Akane’s safety over his justice and try to use the Phantom Thieves, but unlike the Palace Rulers from P5, he learned from his mistakes and ended up awakening to his Persona. While Akane seems like someone who should be a Phantom Thief, being a kid restricted by authority and even a huge fan of the Phantom Thieves, she ignored one of the biggest rules of the Phantom Thieves, fight for others, not yourself. She just wanted to change the Phantom Thiefs’ hearts because she wanted to be saved not save others. Zenkichi remembered that acting out of selfishness isn’t justice, something that Akane failed to remember. Sorry I made this so long, I just really love how Atlus subverted the P5 Palace Ruler and Phantom Thief dynamic here! :D!

@john_7000 Год назад

I think it may be representative of how he and Valjean are represented - as both of them are given a second chance, but also how valjean fought against the law then became the law later on (as a soldier), who saw the law from both sides. In the case of Zenkichi this is also true given by this point he has been on both sides of the law, his character design seems to be more in line with Marius as he was split between the law and ethics near the end of the story.

@wolfofsummerbreeze 3 года назад

The difficulty summoning a persona has been displayed different ways. In 3, it's all psychological. A mental block overcome by willpower. A confrontation against the users fear of death. In 4, it's confronting the truth, and it's emotional and interpersonal, an internal struggle turned external. The pain of being known, of being exposed, which incites change. In 5, it seems more like metamorphosis. An internal change brought on by external forces. But the pain seems much more physical. If I were to guess, I think it's how close the metaverse is to the real world vs how removed the tv world is. Evokers, I believe, can operate in the real world, but because they are an aid they don't induce physical pain. Also it's shown to always be hard the first time, and after that it gets easier...

The what arcana

@lukecrawford7051 3 года назад

The Apostle Arcana is a variation of the Hierophant Arcana, and represents sticking to one beliefs of right and wrong. At least, that’s what I could gather from looking things up after Lavenza told me what it is.

@@ghostdragon3589 Akechi is a crazy popular character. I don't see why they wouldn't bring him back.

@ghostdragon3589 3 года назад

@@zamaskowany12 true but they would have to tackle Akechi being alive after shido’s palace and make him different from both Sophia and Zenkichi in terms of gameplay, which in my eyes seems kinda hard when Sophia uses bless attacks and Zenkichi uses almighty. Then again they could easily surprise us with him being different from everyone if he does in fact make a return.

I got the inverse of most everyone. I wasn't much interested in Strikers until I learned that a new party member was a middle-aged guilt-ridden man who dads the teenagers. As soon as the game started I loved Zenkichi. All through the game I've been trying to control my hype for his awakening, cause I was sure it wouldn't be as good as I hoped. And it was everything I hoped for and more, just as brutal and haunting as Joker's and Ryuji's, I love it. Now if only I weren't so bad at this game and could do those sweet smooth combos like the guy in the video does...

@itsyeetorbeyeeted936 Год назад

What I like about how Zenkichi fights is that despite using a huge-ass Zweihander, he swings it super fast. And that's EXACTLY how greatswords like the Zweihander were used. They aren't slow weapons, they're actually quite fast, especially because of the weight they have.

@highwizard6764 3 года назад

I kinda though his skillset was similar to Darkechi but no Curse skills If Zenkichi has Salvation/Samarecarm he would be waaaay broken

@ghostdragon3589 3 года назад

My opinion is that he is Akechi but if Atlas actually cared to give him a move set that could compete with the others when playable. He gets the Megido line of skills as well as the gun skills(except riot gun) and then heat riser and debilitate. Doesn’t get bless or curse skills like Akechi but i don’t think he needs them. His moveset easily made him on my most played characters in this game.

@wizzy7755 Год назад

@@ghostdragon3589 Bless and curse skills are the weakest skills in the game be it in royal or strikers since they low base atk/dmg and their strongest forms are still mudo and hama skills and we all know that all mini, elite, monarch and palace bosses are immune to it. So atlus made zenkichi OP by making him both strong in gun and almighty dmg and his fury mode makes his sword waves deal almighty dmg.

@ghostdragon3589 Год назад

@@wizzy7755 I completely agree with you on bless and curse being the weakest of magic in all 3 persona 5 games (doesn’t help that they don’t have a severe level damage skill) I was just pointing out how Zenkichi was the better almighty member between the two. Because even if we cut Akechi’s bless and curse attacks from him, p5 and p5r nerfed almighty hard(though if it is still needed in strikers feel free to correct me) which made Akechi a little disappointing in my eyes compared to Zenkichi who like you said, is OP.

It wasn't you. Outside of Futaba's Awakening in P5, Zenkichi was the closest to manifesting his Shadow. Fortunately, Zen is very much a person with the wisdom and humility to accept his failures when confronted, and so his Shadow became the voice of his Will of Rebellion instead.
