I'd be perfectly willing to accept that, so long as this new girl is playable (as a central protag, not just a party member) somehow.
I dont doubt she will be playable, but I agree with the others in that her campaign (if she leads one) will probably be similar to Aigis.

Oh yeah, also P5 Spoilers:

Akechi dies before the end of Persona 5, and even before that he is outed as a traitor.

The only time he asks these questions is inbetween meeting Joker and before the last part of the game, setting up a definite time-frame for which he could question P5R girl. That means that at least to a certain extent, she is going to kinda retcon herself within the story (assuming of course, she isn't just fem-Joker)
tbh the very precise timeframe implied by akechi's question (post-madarame, growing thieves popularity) is what's giving me vibes of standalone expansion if not fem-joker - some kind of mini adventure going on in the background

though that would raise the question of why the phantom thieves didn't notice other metaverse users sneaking around, unless we're just going full rerelease-style retcon

Side side note:

The hypothetical situation where Akechi asks the player of their opinion of the Phantom Thieves, these are your options
opinion on phantom thieves.png


Take note that these are all supportive of the Phantom Thieves, and none coincide with what P5R girl is saying.

This leads me to some possible conclusions:
  1. She is femJoker and is explicitly lying about how she believes in the justice of the Phantom Thieves.
  2. She is not femJoker and is lying to make her appear as if she does not support them in order to trick someone/Akechi.
  3. She is not femJoker and is telling the truth and doesn't believe in their vigilantism, meaning she may oppose the Phantom Thieves.
  4. None of this matters because it won't actually be in the final game.

Combo Man was that made by that one dude in every RP group who just has to have a character that has both the Keyblade and the Master Sword
That's why I like it, he's just a dumb fusion character to sell a snack. Gotta have that SS2 Stand User Bankai Sharingan fammunition.

I'd also like to remind you that in Persona 3 FES, the "definitive" version depending on who you ask, instead of using a female protagonist, created an entirely separate miniature campaign post-game. Consider that that is also an option Atlus may take, allowing them to use another female character and not just a parallel Joker.
Or you know...

I like where youre going with that. There's also the possibility of changing up the story quite a bit at the start of the game, like someone or akechi leads the phantom thieves until she ends up joining somehow :O

I know, a bit of a stretch, but i do think there's some kind of twist.

HOLY ****, SOMEONE ELSE PLAYED P2?

Anyways, yeah a Duology/Persona 5-2 situation could definitely be possible, especially if they reuse assets in making P5. Dunno how willing Atlus are to go down the route, but it's interesting to think about.

Someone hijacked my Epic Games account but joke's on them, I haven't used it in months and there's no payment info saved on it.
Also it's the first account of mine that's been hacked in several years so nice security Epic

Persona 5 is the biggest game Atlus has made yet

Literally redoing every cutscene, scenario, and dialogue to fit the female character

its not easy as pressing a button.

P5R is either P4G thing with added sublot and a new girl or the new girl is the MC of new subplot in the game.
Dude. You are the only one who thinks this. Sure, that doesn't mean we're right and you're wrong. But it probably means that it's more possible and plausible than you think it is. I mean sure, it would be a little strange considering P5 took about 8 years to make (2008-2016), and it's only been 3 years since P5's launch. But I will say that we have no idea how much of that time was spent on each individual aspect. Most of the character models would still be the same, as would the gameplay engine. Sure, dialogue would be different (and I admit to not knowing the exact in depth ups and downs of the plot), but how much of the story would actually really change. Just based on my rough knowledge of the development process, implementing a female protagonist would probably require about 1/3 or 1/4 of the work and time needed to build the entire game up from scratch, which would be about 2.6 years of dev time max. So it's not as unreasonable as you may think. Sure, it's a big job. And we don't know everything about the project. We don;t know how long they've been working on it and we don't have an exact breakdown of how long each individual element takes. I'm just trying to highlight that there is a logic behind the idea that that's what we could be getting, even outside of the leaks from Smash.

What if Marvel did a Marvel vs. Capcom line of comics where individual Capcom game characters team up with individual Marvel characters? Like Iron Man/Mega Man. What pairings do you use?
An Iron Fist and Ryu team up would be pretty sick ngl

it's too late would be a fantastic battle/at least boss theme for feMC, change my mind


like damn, that drop at 0:40 comes in at around the same time as 'you'll never see it coming' in last surprise, it's basically perfect for timing all out attacks to the music
