That new article featuring P5 Royal almost seems to be implying Kasumi is a wild card.

"If she is a persona user, what about the persona and the Archana?"

And when it points out the similarities between her and Joker's phantom thieves costumes and says she'll be there from the beginning, it really does make me think it will be possible to play as her.

It's been a huge reason as to why I continue to suspect her of having the Jester arcana, even if it does not seem to fit her character so well as of now.

Sweet, the gymnast motif is stronger than expected.

Want it to be even stronger? The gun she is using is a hunting rifle. Besides the obvious sort of sport it is used for(Hunting), it is also the type of gun used for the Biathlon(To be specific, the Bolt Action and the Frontier Rifle). I am not an expert on guns, but this is what I have learned through some research.

Well, the new Confidant uses a card from the Spanish deck El Gran Tarot Esoterico... So, I imagine she;ll be from that deck?

They could have her be La Consultante, which replaces the Priestess, though I don't know if you'll be actively consulting her or if she'll just tell you her opinion regardless of if you want it... El Ciclo, which replaces Judgment, could work too, as she sounds like she'll somewhat be involved with the cycles of the world, as she has a rebellious spirit but also doesn't want people relying on a new power? El Loco, which replaces the Fool, would work, given how the 0-numbered arcana is associated with the Wild Card in later games, but I don't know if it's different enough from the Fool...

This is not something I knew. Good thing to keep in mind.

Yeah, it seems they're not going to be using the Thoth Deck they used in the extra social links of P3FES and P4G (which makes sense given how P5 is using the Tarot of Marseilles in particular, versus the English decks of past games). So, I wouldn't expect Aeon, Hunger, or Jester to show up, though El Loco may be similar to Jester thematically. I'm not an expert on Spanish tarot decks, but the word choice does invoke a more radical insanity then the youthful innocence of the Fool/Le Mat.

It's also not like Persona hasn't made up Arcana before and P2 just casually decided to have a bunch of "Arcana" named after astrological signs...

For the censorship stuff, Senran Kagura is not a good comparison. Do you even know what the game has in it?

If they didn't censor Soul Calibur, I really dont see them doing something about her outfit.
I dont mind if they change it to show less skin though, but I dont expect they will. They might for smash considering corrin if she were in.

As for her possible role in the story, i still need to look into that to comment.

Does seem like a down time. Including for me.
I do feel like we've finished the april waves of info, so that might be part of it too.

I know that some people think there won't be much in may because e3 is coming the month after, but I still think we won't necessarily have to wait that long (for smash stuff). We already know we'll get persona info in may, tho.

Yeah, there is not much to talk about. I was busy for most of my day though, so the lack of talk was not something that hit me until a while ago.

Anyway, if discussion is lacking, might as well do an art share post.
It just occurred to me, shouldn't Kasumi be on the Best Girl poll? I know it's rather late poll wise and we don't know what her confidant is like(She could pull a Sae on us), but it would be interesting to see what happens.

There's some really good ones in there again :)

She could be on the poll, though I dont think we've had quite a lot to get to know her yet, compared to p5. Altho I'd probably change my vote to her :p
For some reason in p5 there isn't a character that's struck me uniquely quite like Chie did in p4, so i'm really curious to know more about kasumi. I already like her design quite a lot tho. I dont find her to be 'plain' like some people do.

Any specualizations/gueses/hopes on Kazumi's ENG VA?

Also in the off-chance they update Smash's Persona content: Which character could a Kazumi spirit possibly be represented by?

I'm not very familiar with English VAs, but maybe Ashly Burch?

And she'd definitely be represented by Lucina.

Personally? I’d say she could be voiced by Kira Buckland. I dunno why, but I can just hear her voice coming from Kasumi’s mouth.

As for her Spirit Battle? To go with her background, I’d say the female Wii Fit Trainer in her red colors.

I think it can wait until October, at least.

This is a weird observation bit Kasumi kind of looks like an older version of the female protagonist of the Yokai watch games. Their both start with K as well. Neat.

Oddly apt given how the Yokai Watch series seems to be taking notes from Persona as of it's fourth installment, what with the protagonists getting to fight alongside their Yokai, and having Yokai related battle transformations now.

I'd find it hilarious if they got Faye Mata to voice her considering who she and Sora (the Seiyuu) voice

You know, now that it has been a bit and the overall Persona hype has died down a bit, how are you guys feeling about Kasumi being a possible echo for Joker? I still feel the same, but I am curious of what the general thought Persona fanbase wise.

Edit:
Fixed some typos. Curse typing on a phone screen.

I wouldn't mind. More girls and Persona content are always welcome, and she wouldn't take much time to make.

I'd be fine with her (even if I do prefer Ann to get in first). Though I still don't think she'd get in until the pass is completed, at least.

Just general apathy if Jane gets in ill still play as joker. If the echo costs money I probably won't get it(nothing against her I would just never use it when jokers there) I don't even think its gonna happen but if you want her I'm rooting for ya.
