I don't get it, why did he take care of his wife's daughter, then take care of someone's son like MC?

How did he afford it with his tiny cafe?

i assume he had a decent amount of money from his gig in the government

He was a government worker previously. The cafe is just the thing he does in retirement.

1. He never got with Wakaba
2. He had money left over from his political days.

1. Futaba's mother was not his wife
2. He owed a favor the MC's parent I believe
He used to be a government worker so it's no surprise he has some dosh saved up

/thread

can you not fucking read or anything?

More importantly, why'd everyone suddenly start calling him boss halfway through the game?

>People keep mentioning how shitty MC's room is
>that huge ass room with all the space and he basically occupies the entire cafe after it's closed
>compared to the tiny apartments in Tokoyo it's basically a dream house

Just his nickname

You're stupid, why the hell do you think his social link levels up KINDNESS, people like you need everything spelled out?

A nickname no one used until he brought it up

And when he did, everyone liked it and stuck with it. What's the deal here?

Still a nickname

I'm saying Sojiro's a loser the comes up with his own nicknames

Nickname and term of endearment I suppose. They were using his cafe to plot illegal activities and Sojiro turned out to be a pretty big bro by the end of the game.

>In the interrogation Sae mentions one of Joker's teachers was involved in a train accident
>This is never mentioned again
>Sojiro mentions knowing Joker's parents
>This is never mentioned again
Feels like the game cut a lot of potential plots.

I knew he was a cool guy the moment he complained about MC bringing a cat (Morgana) home but returned with food for him.

He also wanted to name it

Yeah this nickname thingy was bullshit. Totally out of place.

Wakaba was just a close friend of his, not his wife

How is a simple nickname out of place?

In the jap version they called him master, a nickname for bar owners

sojiro was a much better father figure than dojima

>cool guy
>has your back when the cops find out about you
>actually raises his daughter properly

He literally said that's what it is. He's essentially retired, and the cafe is just his hobby.

Persona 5 Crimson, my senpai. With proper Sae and Lavenza links.

Not hearing from Jokers parents at all felt weird, like if they'd actually disowned him I could understand but he's only in Tokyo to go to school, even if it's just an occasional text, feels strange that they literally ignore him for a year

GIVE ME A C

>remove Wakaba's research from the game
>nothing changes

>Remove the reason she was killed and subequently futabas fucked up mentality

Effin adults could've killed her for countless other reasons.

Sojiro seriously was probably the best character in the game

He's retired you fucking retard

>remove Futaba's motivation and source of her distortion
>remove Sojiro's reason for believing you about the Phantom Thieves
>remove the method the main villain used to achieve his goals
Grats you just butchered everything after Kamoshida's dungeon

You'd be removing the whole big government conspiracy from the game. Nice job, retard.

Wakaba's research being an abandoned plot thread is the most retarded meme I've seen on this site.

But Shido didn't use the research at all. His son just lucked into getting powers that let him enter palaces, and so Shido used him instead.

Shido wouldn't even have believed his crazy bastard son if he didn't know of the research before hand. They also wouldn't have known to use the suicide pill if they didn't know about the cognitive world and how it works. They wouldn't even have known what was happening to Shido after the palace was done if they didn't have the research.

GIVE ME A U!

>Shido wouldn't even have believed his crazy bastard son if he didn't know of the research before hand
Yeah, it was so difficult for Akechi to kill some person to prove his powers, right?

Oh yeah, spend years doing research to find out that if someone with some special powers that had never been observed enters your mind palace, take a fake death pill while they are messing with your mind. All that research useful only in case a couple of gods decide to have a contest, one of the outcomes being the removal of all palaces anyway. Great fucking writing.

YOU JUST SOME TRASH LIVING IN AN ATTICT!

Would you honestly believe some kid who says they can mindfuck a person, even if they killed someone to prove it? I mean, how do they prove they used that specific method? The kid's clearly unhinged, so he could've easily gone and killed him due to psychosis.

Shido only believed him because he knew of the cognitive world beforehand. Without that knowledge, he'd just have dismissed Akechi as a crazy kid.

to busy having sex and doing cocain

I think its the "basement dweller" insult jap style.
Strange as there are plenty of people who live in net cafe booths in Tokyo.

GIVE ME A C!

It's not a plot hole, it's intentionally how Hashino wants the player character to be, just look at how p3 and p4 had nothing carry over from their daily lives before the game.

He was literally out food. Futaba wasn't going to school, and MC's parents were footing the bill for his school. He already had the space in his house and restaurant.

What else was there?

Sorry ment forand4chan x is pissing up my bowser.

>hurr durr you know about that congnitive world? it's actually palace! and I can summon PEEEEERSONA who is Robin Hood and Loki too huh))) and I transform into insane buffon too! and my toy blaster became real weapon so I can kill anyone! so will you hire me as your serial killer, daddy?

It's a Catherine reference

>Sure thing son, now wear these, bend over and try to squeal like your whore of a mother.

I think we all know what the real problem was

Ann's confidant not having a paizuri scene.

Due, have you seen the profit margins on lattes? not even starbucks jewery, your regular corner coffeshop has 100% margin easy without being overtly greedy.

GIVE ME A K!

>there will never be a Wakaba route

he was just jelly about jokers room.

Suddenly? The moment he met the gang, he told them to call him "Boss." Costumers called him "Boss" before that as well.
