Every day I long for post-royal spin-offs for the opportunity to allow both Goro and Sumire to actually interact with the others without falsities or time-restricted threats preventing them from having much needed conversations and conflicts. I still wish we had at least gotten a second cafe scene with the Royal Trio where they could talk about how they actually feel about things like change and helping others. To see Goro try and brush it all off and maybe have Sumire call him out on it because his actions wouldn’t match his words, or even Sumire having to reevaluate her own answer since she was no longer under the influence of trying to be Kasumi and what it means if she still agrees with how she felt back then. Also I still love the potential humor with them ordering iced drinks in the winter this time while Akira has his hot beverage and him being able to call them both out for this. Love these funky little weirdos.

#I think about the P3 cast so much and how much I love that they can fight and argue and hurt each other #and their conflict resolution feels pretty organic over the whole course of the game.#I think Akechi feels very reminiscent to that cast because he isn’t Joker’s yes-man like the rest #And we don’t know Sumire enough to really say but from her backstory and stuff I think she could also potentially fit that.#Because we know that Kasumi’s kindness infuriated her and while she’s definitely on the healing path #just from her brief conversation with Kasumi before her death I personally could see the potential for her depression to make her lash out.#Not in a horrible mean way but like when you hate yourself that much you get pretty unresponsive to praise or compliments #it all feels fake and frustrating and hard to listen to #and I don’t think Sumire’s depression is an aspect that should just be written away just because she awakened and faced reality #Would love to see her exhibit those symptoms even the less palatable ones like the P3 cast was allowed to do.#ANYWAY all this to say I love the Answer. I love Yukari. I love characters who mess up and make it everyone’s problem #healing is messy and absolutely not linear #you still deserve to have people around you
