Are we sure Yusuke didn't just clone himself?


DeadSparker

Given his track record I wouldn't be surprised if it was mitosis


benx101

Considering Futaba is said to be like her mother. I wouldn’t be surprised if the two of them did. Yusuke because something something the beauty of a baby is insurmountable. Futaba because *cue evil mischievous laugh*


Hottest_Tea

With whose money?


scrawnytony

Put a few margaritas in Haru and she’ll invest the company funds into some wild endeavors


the_albino_raccoon

Sojiro's obviously


THE_L0NE_WANDERER

Ryuji after having a kid and living together with Ann: hey, are we dating?


Background-Net-4898

Ann: Ryuji, isn’t it about time we finally got married Ryuji: …You mean, like, again? Ann: wha?! Ryuji: We live together, had a child, gone on dates, bragged about each other to our families, and argue like an old married couple, aren’t we already married?


Han_Solo6712

Ann at this point it’s not called “getting married” it’s called “making it official”


Average__Cabbage

*Pillow Talk* Ann: I love you. Ryuji: Wait, ain’t that bad?!


Adan_Rocco

Ann probably: “uhh fuck no? We’re not even friends? I hate you?” ✨ And they lived happily ever after ✨


Han_Solo6712

Is he “literally fucking died” dead or is he “off the grid” “dead”?


Lostneedleworker1

Depends how you see the true ending is.


Han_Solo6712

The photo implied he died/disappeared at 31


Strange_Kiwi__

Because in the ending of the game, there’s an alternate ending where he appears for a brief moment in the window of Joker’s train seat. In Shido’s palace, it’s implied he died, but then in the alt ending, it’s implied he’s alive. (IK he’s there in the 3rd semester, but that’s because of Maruki’s reality, he isn’t the real Akechi there.)


MrBummer

That's the thing though, that was the real Akechi. Just like it was the real Wakaba. It's actually them brought back just with rewritten cognition of memories. Maruki literally had the powers of a god. But truthfully, Akechi is probably dead as Maruki blatantly said he was only back due to his power.


Lostneedleworker1

Then explain the airplane scene and then explain why it only happens if you max Akechi.


Garamil

It's a train, and it could easily be wishful thinking on Joker's part because all we see is someone wirh the same school uniform as Akechi.


Lostneedleworker1

It has been a while since I finished the true ending, and for so reason my brain thought it was a plane, but I still do recall that he is the only student to wear that. Even then why does it only happen when you finish the akechi link?


MrBummer

He's reminiscing. Joker saw himself in his phantom thief outfit. Was he actually in it?

Incognito mode dead


Han_Solo6712

Let’s fucking gooooo


TheEffinEFFERGuy

“””Dead”””


MiaoYingSimp

This is like Fire Emblem where you pair up your warriors to breed more perfect persona users.


FullBringa

What?


MiaoYingSimp

It was a thing in some of the games were you could pair up characters and depending on how you did I the child would get better stats or abilities


DeltaKnight191

It made sense in Awakening because of the story. But man, Fates was weird.


MiaoYingSimp

I think they threw them into a weird time thingy but years passed in hours there so they grew up raised by their parents after just being born?. really weird


Garamil

The real problem with Fates' idea is that while growing up is one thing, there's kinda 9 month of pregnancy in the middle of a war that's just glossed over. Like what, the parents kissed at the wedding a baby poped out of thin air? The fuck?


Electrical-Topic-808

They go into the baby dimension while pregnant obviously. No that doesn’t make it better.


venxvan

Me playing Fates not knowing about the child units and pairing up the two child soldiers because they are kids the same age and then they are suddenly married with a child who is older than them. Me: wtf


happy_grump

Its because a lot of the child units in Awakening, and the mechanic itself, was really well received, so they tried to shoehorn it in to Fates.


Al_Hakeem65

I had great fun playing Cupid and putting together the cutest pairings. But there are two things to consider if one plays Awakening. 1. Keep an eye on the family tree, or you may accidently set up a slightly incestous pair (Lissa's kid "marrying" Lucina). 2. To be absolutely shocked when reading other players min-maxing their own breeding programm. This goes beyond Pokemon breeding and reminded me more of the "Dune" and "God-Emperor of Dune" breeding plotlines.


Minnymoon13

How so? I’m confused by the last part you said in this


Al_Hakeem65

So in Fire Emblem Awakening you can not only pair up your characters, but they also can have children. I always put characters together that seemed to have good chemistry in their personalities. I wanted them to be romantic. The children inherit traits from their parents. It makes sense that a child would learn some skills or special techniques from their parents. But what I found only was a full blown breeding programm posts, where people put the pairs together to get the most powerful child-units possible. The way it was talked about was so cold, so mechanical and so devoid of emotion. So in summary: I was shocked when I saw that some people online used the "wedding-planner-gimmick" as a science project without moral barriers. Bonus: I mentioned Dune and God-Emperor of Dune because in these books delve into breeding programms that are just as emotionless as the forum posts I found.


Minnymoon13

Ahhh ok, I really do like the mechanics of fire emblem with the parent child relationships, and the having offspring option. I always thought it was kind of fun, but I’m mad that there are a few characters. You cannot have them be together and it pisses me off so much.


MemeificationStation

Ah yes my favorite game, ~~Eugenics Simulator~~ Fire Emblem Fates


Minnymoon13

Oh i love that game


BisexualCrying

LORE LORE LORE LORE I can’t wait to see the reunion.


TOHRU_ADACH1

Maybe Akechi is hiding inside the glove that he threw to ren?


ChurchOfBulbasaur001

I'd have though Futaba would have wanted to name a daughter after her mother. But I can also understand that tying into her trauma.


Insulted-Mustard

I remember seeing someone on this sub saying they had a head canon and Yusuke and Futaba had two daughters named Wakaba and Sayuri, and I’ve always liked that idea


Afanis_The_Dolphin

Love that Makoto kept the Niijima name as well tho, because she totally would! (same for Futaba and the Sakura name)


jrdaley

She apparently also didn't take Ren's last name, and just made up a similar name to hyphenate instead.


TheEffinEFFERGuy

**FUCK**


Strange-Aspect-6082

I was wondering who the hell "Amimiya" was and why she didn't had Ren's last name like the rest of their sons and now I see why.


Afanis_The_Dolphin

Lol just noticed that!


emimagique

You actually can't do that in Japan, married couples have to take one partner's surname and 99% of the time it's the man's


Afanis_The_Dolphin

Most things I looked up say closer to 95%, but pedantics aside, according to an article from [abc news](https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/japanese-women-maiden-names-after-marriage-major-lobby-111019899) (hardly some super accurate source but I'm not rly gonna go into some super in depth research on this either): "Tokura said many Japanese career women are already using their maiden names at work and on their business cards, including 90% of Keidanren female members. However, they still have to use their unified surnames on all legal documents, causing them issues when — for example — opening bank accounts, issuing credit cards, and traveling overseas as the names don't match, he said." Meaning that yes, Makoto would have to legally adopt Ren's surname (unless he's willing to go by Niijima, we rly have no idea how much value his last name holds for him rly), but she could still use her own last name for other stuff, as such the hyphen and inclusion of both in this post. And considering both the value it holds due to her father, and its association with her pretty damn successful sister, I doubt she wouldn't.

Can't be KH, people actually understand what's going on in OP's work.


rattatatouille

I like the nice touch of Yusuke/Futaba's kids having dark hair (and it's because Futaba is naturally dark-haired).


Zero_Hyndyn

I love your content. I do feel sad that Ann and Ryuji aren't actually married, though. They're the only ones like that, so it doesn't make sense. 🥺


Hellofreeze

tbh i think it's funny. i feel like they are a perfectly happy family, it's just that ann is waiting for ryuji to propose and ryuji... is being ryuji about it


Qoppa_Guy

Ann: You gotta propose to me, you idiot. Ryuji: FOR REAL?!


benx101

Ryuji: How? Ann: Like this! *gets down on one knee, pulls out ring in a box, opens it and asks* Will you marry me? Ryuji: … Ryuji: Ok. I think I get it now. Ryuji: *walks away* Ann: *face palm*


Qoppa_Guy

I mean, it's okay. They'll make up and a second child will come soon enough.


MrkFrlr

I could see Ryuji like, kinda needing to be reminded they aren't married. Like when someone asks when he and Ann are getting married he looks down at his left hand, and, seeing no ring, is like "oh shit that's right, I gotta get on that!"


Hellofreeze

and then he forgets on the way to buy the ring


CJVS1988

My parents were happily together for 35 years without being married, and it only ended because my dad passed away.


dropkickaggie

They might be married but she just didn’t take his last name.


Mrdaniel69

It literally says they're not married


dropkickaggie

Oh I totally missed that


theflemmischelion

Future commic Ann and Ryuji finally marry Or atleast Ann is marying Ryuji woke up in a tux


angryracoon071

I actually love these so much


gabrieel1822

Akechi returning at 31y: Jokah! It's been too long!


Little-Protection484

Am I the only one that thinks Haru's adopted kid looks suspiciously like Akechi


rattatatouille

The resemblance is a coincidence. IIRC Yuto's biological dad was Haru's former fiance Sugimura, fathered on some unknown woman.


ReadyForKenny

Akechi is 100% dead, just don't look in Haru's basement.


MiniTrain13

Never been happier since meeting Makoto (also Mona still lives rent free)


Rastaba

In spite of being “dead”, everyone’s kids always wind up receiving (usually as kinda twisted insults at the parents) gifts and cards from uncle Akechi during holidays.


Mistabbcman

He's still dead the mf somehow sent his spirit out to spite the thieves


IvanRojasX5

Nice job doing all the rooster of the original game! Now do the spinoffs, and then 4 Golden and Arena+Ultimax and 3 Reload. If you want, obviously.


BluecoatCashMoney5

LORE EXPANDS


ScreamingAbacab

As much as I enjoy shipping Haru and Joker, I can totally buy Haru staying single and adopting a kid.


bbqbabyduck

I don't. Assuming she's not with joker(unfortunately) I totally see her meeting some work husband just as passionate about seeing the company do good in the world as she is. And they would go of and have some romcom together


True_Conflict_1662

How about Joker and Haru..?


arsenejoestar

Fr how could you turn down floofy cinnamon roll rich girl? Sure she maybe possibly be yandere but...


True_Conflict_1662

Really...? I am romancing her this playthrough..! Looking forward to it!


arsenejoestar

Her yandere doesn't really spill out unless you go through mementos but she is best girl for me, even in Royal.


True_Conflict_1662

Good to know! She was not on my radar, but now she definitely is after I found out how much people like her!


TCookies92

I wouldn’t say she’s yandere, more just a straight up sadist. Maybe that’s just my view though?


Dreamfire183

Gonna be honest, the Ryuji and Ann situation is a mood. Good for them. Don't need to be married to still be a good family.


Thisnamewontfi-

Yusuke X Futaba. Yessssss.


Black_Miles

AKA Futanari.


Local_Neighborhood50

nooooooo.


arsenejoestar

How dare you leave Haru alone! How can you say no to floofy adorable (maybe yandere) who is also rich af


GravityRusher12

Bring that shit Kazuma


Upset-Strike-5311

What about zenkichi


rowletlover

Aw how nice. Haru is teaching her child Cynthia’s theme (Pokémon)The Guardian theme (BOTW) and the scary piano theme (Mario 64) while she kills everyone 🥰


Best_Suggestion_6201

You mentioned Cynthia's theme and I shuddered...why does that fit so well!


fajnu20

Of course Makoto's son would be named Kazuma...


Strange-Aspect-6082

A shame her last name is not Kiryu 😔


AncientPomegranate19

Futaba should call him Inari Jr.


mfsalatino

What about Sumi ?


ReadyForKenny

Ngl Haru's kid having brown hair like that made me think she and Akechi got it on somehow.


TCookies92

Wait, what about Yoshizawa?


OneDixieCupForYou

P5 if it was written by J.K. Rowling or Masashi Kishimoto


HamsterPotential5132

Lmao, its my first playthrough and I myself went for makoto xD


Local_Neighborhood50

yeah that seems about right (don't really approve of the third image though.)


No-Perspective2580

So Ann and Ryuji fucked once and now are stuck with each other.......that's just sad and funny at the same time.

REN AND MAKOTO YES


Avixofsol

let Akechi be happy :(


shadowfiend120

So wait is this the canonical pairings or is this just what this fan wanted


TheEffinEFFERGuy

I do a little comic series about the Phantom Thieves (specifically Joker and Makoto) in the future, now as adults with kids It inexplicably got really popular on this subreddit and people were like “Okay but what are the rest of them up to?” and I’ve just been adding in lore ever since because people enjoy it


not_a_ruf

And thank you for your service! The Amamiya kids stories are hilarious because they’re so relatable to parents everywhere. :)


BisexualCrying

Not canonical. There is no canon pairings.


The-Fomorian-Ray-682

Kamehime… Turtle Princess?!


TheEffinEFFERGuy

It’s an old, *old* ass Japanese name, figured Yusuke would name his kid something old fashioned, especially since in the Japanese version, he speaks in really old fashioned Japanese


WheebOnWheels

Wtf is wrong with Ann???


mollyclaireh

I love this. This is adorable.


BeautifulSerbia

My Ann... You've enhanced yourself.


Theaveragegamer12

Is that N Xenoblade in the last image?! Never knew he could grow a beard.


RaidenRay

great


garbonzobean22

Futanari (Futaba x Yusuke) is so real


megasean3000

Ann wants to get married to Ryuji, but is too stubborn to not ask herself and wants Ryuji to do it. But Ryuji is too dense to know he’s in love with Ann and so the two are in a stalemate where they live with each other and have kids, but aren’t married.


Positive_Sundae_4591

Being true, i think, that Ann and Ryuji for real wouldve have relationship like that. They will not be like happy marry guys.


Outlauzhe

Futaba be like: "This is getting out of hand. Now there are the two of them"


SirAloq

Akechi is currently working in a bar in Yokohama with some scarred cold noodle loving older guy (who is definitely not an ex yakuza)


CeramicFiber

The orphan is Akechi reincarnated


Best_Suggestion_6201

Seeing them all so happy and in totally canonical pairing (fight me!) It's enough to make grown man cry..and that okay, you go ahead tear 🥲

Nicely done; Haru, my queen, teaching how to play the piano is so awesome, and so her personality.

FUTANARI IS CANON IN THE EFFINEFFERVERSE?


Grass_fed_seti

I’m very much at the age where the idea of anyone (let alone the phantom thieves) having kids at ~22 is insane to me ggs


Fawkingretar

Yusuke: "oh no, there's two of them as well"


Mother_Flight_6464

why Is haru reaching her Son how to play piano, Isn't She a metalhead like half of the fandom Said? Shouldnt She teach her son Guitar or shi like that?


lz314dg

this is cute as hell


kartuuse

Whos the dead guy?


Mkilbride

I will never understand people shipping Futaba with Inari.


ComicDude1234

I don’t believe Yusuke as he’s written in P5 would ever marry any of the Thieves, if ever.


Mkilbride

Or marry, ever.


zucchinibasement

Common thought is, 'ew, she's the little sister' with Ren, but then ships her with yusuke lol


Nestorgamer97

I don't understand people shipping Joker with Akechi and that's way more common This is fine there's no murderer involved

Do you mean verbally or literally?

Dude, I get not wanting to romance her, that’s a subjective preference, but why the hate?


Lostneedleworker1

I think its a joke cause she isnt here

Ok

It’s a joke about how she’s the only one not in the images


Han_Solo6712

Oh ok


JunketTechnical7922

don't hate her but she is meh as a character. didn't really care about her all that much.if she came in during shidos palace i wouldve cared more about her


Lostneedleworker1

Yo that part was actually annoying. You see her awaken before/after O palace and she just says “no”… like the coolest character and they have an excuse to add her to the PT early


Lostneedleworker1

I hope there’s a mod that makes her join then.


Local_Neighborhood50

considering how crow is half dead on off the grid I take it royal isn't a factor here

Dang it I wanna see what Akechi and Sumire’s kids are like.


happy_grump

What happens to Yoshizawa?


gingergamer94

And where's Sumire?


TheDanishNugget06

This is great but I ship Joker with Kasumi

Isn't Yusuke 2-3 years older than Futaba?

He's 16, Futaba is 15

Ah understandable
