Ryuji's life fucking sucks. His dad left him and his mom so he's got parental issues already. His mom probably doesn't spend a lot of time around him nor does his dad ever visit so right away not only does he have no adult figure in his life to discipline him, but his views on relationships are all fucked up because of his parents splitting. So because of this he becomes a brat and this leads to adults basically disciplining him in place of his parents, hence why he hates "shitty effin adults" because psychologically he really hates his shitty effin parents.
Next his only output in life is sports. He's a star athlete and it clearly is the only thing in his life he's really good at. Everything else he's either average or mediocre, but track and field is a place where he and be himself, but even so he's still an arrogant asshole on the field and basically only has friends through his sports teams, all of whom may like him, but clearly think he's an ass.
Now in terms of romance he's really only had one girl as a friend for most of his teenage life, Anne. So naturally he probably harbors somewhat of a crush on her, even if she doesn't back, but at the same time he probably lacks the confidence to straight up ask her or any girl out based on his home life, let alone participate in a healthy relationship. The irony here is that Anne is in a lot of ways opposite of him, she's very open and confident and her parents are still together.
Now enter the events of Persona 5. Shortly beforehand Ryuji's temper and attitude really get on everyone's nerves and one day he goes too far. He basically "attacks" Kamoshida who in "self defense" breaks his leg. This leads to Ryuji being told his injury will greatly affect his physical mobility and he will never be that star sportsman that he once was. So shortly after the sports team abandons him and he's left friendless apart from one friend, Anne.

So at the beginning of Persona 5; Ryuji has no friends, no girlfriend, and ultimately no future. That is until he meets Joker, unlocks his persona and steals back his future from Kamoshida with the help of Anne, Joker, and Morgana.
But he really doesn't. As his S.L. plays out he basically has to accept his leg will never magically heel. He tries to apologize to the sports teams and they blow him off. Apart from the new found friendship of The Phantom Thieves he really steals nothing back from Kamoshida.
And that's why cucking him is so fitting, the perfect end to this tragic story. Because the only thing he managed to steal back from Kamoshida was Anne, and immediately loses her again to Joker. Sure he may be happy on the outside that she's happy with Joker and not an abusive slave to Kamoshida, but in the end you know that there's some part of him that is saying "That could've been you"

I become happy.
Dominic Ortiz
Please God, let me meet him. All I want to is to find that perfect boy I know exists. He’s sweet and shy and my age and likes all the things I do, perhaps even is on this site itself. The boy who won’t secretly think I’m a loser, the boy I can cuddle with (even if only possible online) and spent nights talking to and laughing and sharing happiness. Someone who can reciprocate the love I put in, the boy who I can make feel safe and secure unconditionally and can fill this gaping, empty void in my heart. Please, just let me find this person. I’ll change everything about me if that’s what it takes. Please, I just can’t take the loneliness anymore.

Hello /pg/ i want to do a ''/pg/ sings...'' to celebrate the release of P5 on the west. But i don't know which song pick Or if anyone of you faggots is gonna participate. I was thinking on Rivers in the Desert since it has a instrumental track which would be easier to work with but ''Life Will Change'' or ''Hoshi to Bokura to'' are appeling too. Thoughs? I would mix all the recordings of course
Adam Collins
Mass Destruction
Brandon Carter
How about you fuck off with your cancer and humiliate some other general with this autism?
beneath the mask and life will change have instrumental versions too
stick to something with english lyrics, that's easier to sing for most here
Austin Davis
Okay let's go back and post stale memes then
Michael Rivera
No, it was fucking trash. Making this shit is just an invitation for others to laugh at how pathetic the general is. Seriously fuck off.
Gabriel Roberts
That would be significantly less cancerous than this.
Kayden Jones
They already do, it would change nothing.
Connor Jenkins
Making aryan babies with Anne!
Aaron Baker
now that's just pure bullshit
Anthony Baker
No way is laughing at a general out of tradition the same as have an actual genuine reason to laugh at a general for being pathetic enough to produce this garbage. It isn't happening, ask literally any other general.
Liam Gonzalez
im depressed
Xavier Hernandez
>implying you can make an Aryan child with a full Japanese and 3/4ths Japanese person
Aiden Evans
It would give them video evidence to cite. It's a shit meme and you're shit for spreading it.
Anthony Reyes
Okay i'll make an strawpoll and if there's not enough people interested i just cancel the project and call it a day
strawpoll.me/12418216 This is an anonymous board on fucking Veeky Forums. We are already the laughing stock atleast we could do something fun for a change instead of reposting the same shit everyday

Check your definition of 'fun'. This place is hardly the laughingstock of this board, but with idiots like you here it'll certainly become that.
Julian Morgan
need more edits made in our localizations to please them they'd like us if kamoshida's story was about dressing the girls in silly outfits in english
Dominic Bell
i know that you wanna get the hit of endorphins and feeling of accomplishment, but these things are truly shitty and always a mistake
Ayden Collins

Jayden Long

daisuke's link is kinda just boring though
Adam Hernandez
that's funny because Yumi becomes a doormat while Ayane becomes confident and starts fighting for herself You actually did good with sports though, Kou is the better S.Link. Daisuke is just dumb misunderstandings
Josiah Miller
I want Maya to sit on my face.
Nolan Sanders

Tbh I wish p5 had another opening, it sucks that Futaba, Makoto and Haru are there just for a few seconds and don't even have "ice skating" sequences.
Ian Torres
Tbh I kinda prefer it like this; I rather the opening keeps things non-spoilery, so the fact it only really covers the first 4 party members is nice to me But I can see why you'd feel that way being accustomed to the other ones
Brody Baker
yeah yumi's life is kinda totally fucked up by the end of her link desu
meanwhile you spend most of ayane's link having comfy jam sessions by the river
Brandon Kelly
feels like they got added in the last second desu, wonder if it has anything to do with the game's troubled development and when some of the cutscenes sent out to be made by IG
Zachary Myers
Yusuke and Anne needed some screen time
Jason Price
nigga the op was literally done by the end of 2014, hence being in PV01 the artbook further proves that it was animated as a whole
Elijah Williams
They'd have to have been massively behind schedule to not even have finalized designs ready, there's no way. It's probably just the spoiler concerns & keeping it consistent with their pre-release marketing focu
Josiah Johnson
P5's development problems sound more like it was directly due to the troubles of Index failing and the resulting chaos rather than actual creative struggles. I mean the very early concepts they said they were talking about in 2011 ended up differing a lot from the final game, but it's better to have that happen that early rather than a year or two before a predicted release timeframe. Not to mention, IIRC, Hashino said the game's staff was originally 70-80 people, already relatively small for a modern game, and then they had to cut it in half to have spinoff titles be made to keep the company afloat. 30-40 people is puny, so no wonder the game took so long.
Lincoln Richardson
how is giving all the party members equal screentime in the opening a spoiler
Tyler Cruz
Spoiler wasn't the right word, I dunno, not putting all their cards on the table or something
Jaxson Diaz
you'll have to wait until P5C
Leo Hall
maybe they didn't originally plan on detailing each party member in the prerelease marketing
