i honestly really dislike the palace rulers being treated so drastically different from akechi in the fandom. even though there's still people who refuse to say anything positive about akechi because he's a terrible guy, the majority of the fandom still treats him like a character and read into his backstory, behaviour, and motivations.

but when it comes to the palace rulers, there's not a single ounce of that attitude for them. it's so strange because not even the story itself has such a crazy bias; the same amount of sympathy towards akechi is given towards the palace rulers too. madarame and okumura are my most obvious examples, with yusuke often expressing his conflicting feelings on the matter, and haru learning about her father's motivations through takakura during her confidant.

in that sense, joker and akechi's relationship parallels that of haru/yusuke and the respective father figure; the two mutually love and care for each other, but unfortunately, one cares more for themselves and it causes their bond to break.

the cut backstories for the palace rulers add a lot to their character, and maybe that's why i like them so much. it makes them feel as rounded out as akechi was (in vanilla, i know he's much more humanized in royal's third semester. that might add to the bias, actually) and it makes me feel kind of bad for those sick, twisted bastards.

but obviously, that content was cut, and it's not very widespread knowledge, unlike akechi's backstory which he explains in-game, right in your face, unavoidably.

there's also this thing i've noticed that i call "fandom activism" where any deep analysis into a good-written character that is a genuinely bad person is seen as condoning their actions because WE ALWAYS HAVE TO SHUN THE EVIL GUY!!! WE CAN'T TALK ABOUT THEM IN CASUAL CONVERSATION!!! WE NEED TO HOLD A FICTIONAL CHARACTER ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS EVEN THOUGH THEY'RE NOT REAL AND...... the way we treat them makes no difference in the world? huh.

personally, i was informed that the way i talk about kamoshida makes people uncomfortable. it's not like i said anything creepy about him, all i do is read into him the same way one would with akechi. he's a genuinely good villain, the same way akechi is! and his mindset is really interesting to look into!!!!! i think they're all missing out!!!!!!!!

my last line of defense is that the palace rulers are unfortunately made way less conventionally attractive than akechi is. that's something i don't like about them, and the fact that everyone lets that sway their opinions of them even less. i know atlus pulls the "make the unsympathetic character ugly" shtick a lot and it's suuuuuuuuuuck.

yeah. i'm kind of peeved about this and i thought you were the best person to send this to. kaneshiro isn't a cute twink but i'm still going to love him with the little attention he gets........... :')

FRICKEN NAILED IT THERE! NICE JOB!👍👍👍😭😭😭 AND I CAN RELATE TO YOUR PAIN AND STRUGGLES!

Shadow Mariko Hyodo: "Oh, Haru-chan, your father must be so proud up in Heaven...."

The rest of the PT's watching knowing he ain't there:

[xviistrings]

hey. hey you. i got a question for ya

you think okumura felt bad when he couldn't get haru a gift on her birthday because every single penny is important? you think he thought of himself? of his father, who told him the very same thing when he was her age?

you think sae yelled at herself for calling makoto all of those horrible things because she's heard the same from the men around her all her life? you think she found it difficult to look her sister in the eye because she sees a reflection of a stranger who scares her to her core?

you think madarame tried his hardest to make yusuke never doubt his skills because he knew how it felt to be put down over and over until you never get up? you think his heart bloomed at seeing his child happy and twisted when he had to pull him down to lift himself?

you think kaneshiro mourned for the kids whose lives he just ruined because he knows about the deep shit they'll be stuck in for years on end, because he's been through it too? you think he calls himself a fool in the fading breath of an insult to them?

you think, deep down, they know it's all wrong? that they should change? or do you think they keep it shoved down, say it's what they need to do to survive, that it's eat or be eaten?

🗡🛸 10 Of Swords

I wanted to put MORE crows to create a proper "murder" of crows but it gets really messy with too many loose elements. Maybe I'll add some smaller ones in the future, we'll see. The 10 of cards is one of the most ominous cards of the entire deck. It was only fitting to add this "end scene" to our king of Swords.

So uh. I spent 3 years on and off turning the cut Kunikazu Okumura will seed events found in P5Rs code into comic form.

Im always thinkin about the cut will seed content, so hopfully this comic helps that content be less forgettable.

Credits to and @regularpainties for the translation on Xwitter.

welp. i started this comic on my birthday in 2021. and i finally finished it, after about 3 years of off and on work.also cuz i like...worked on it over 3 years and i started it while i was learning clip studio, the style, lineart and font change alot. also there's def grammer and spelling mistakes.

ive got disgraphia so don't come for me lmao. so yea its noticable but im not re-writing it all from scratch lol.Kinda wild to have finally finished it. i started it to distract myself from recently separating from a prominent abuser in my life. and to disract myself from my shit home situation. glad i made it this far to see it finished. <3

finishing this and that huge paper mario print have been really validating, after having to leave artschool due to abuse,i really came close to dropping it all tougether, but really pushing myself to make shit im proud of has really helped me.

even if nobody fucking cares about 2 old dudes bitching to eachother in an office. very riviting.

Hopefully all Zero okumura fans beside me can get a SHRED of somthing from my endevor.

The clash between the writers and devs for the Okumura Palace is so funny. Because the writers want the audience to feel bad that this terrible person died, meanwhile the devs are like "lets design a boss fight so annoying that the players will be GLAD he's dead"

whos getting the best head

The under appreciated shuake dynamic of Akira looking Akechi straight in the eye and telling him a lot of the people he killed probably deserved it.

*coughs in Okumura*

edit: Turns out Okumura isn't as bad as I thought, annoyingly since I still hate him very much. The localisation says that he's responsible for most of the mental shutdowns (which, ???).

This turns out to be a little inaccurate. Okumura is not responsible for most of the shutdowns, but for most of the "odd suspicious cases that aren't accidents or illnesses" that Sae was investigating—presumably things like the naked guy at Wild Duck Burger:

Yusuke 新島検事はまず、一連の連続事件のうち、明らかに事故や病気でない『不審なもの』を抜き出している。 niijima-kenji wa mazu, ichiren no renzoku jiken no uchi, akiraka ni jiko ya byouki de nai "fushinna mono" o nukidashiteiru First, Prosecutor Niijima has been looking into the continued cases of people suddenly collapsing. [lit. Public Prosecutor Niijima has, first of all, extracted odd suspicious cases that were obviously not accidents or illnesses from the continuing series of incidents.] First of all, Prosecutor Niijima has been looking into a subset of the incidents—the peculiar cases that obviously weren't accidents or illnesses.

Yusuke それらに共通点が無いかを探っていたらしい。 sorera ni kyoutsuuten ga nai ka o sagutteita rashii It seems she [was] searching for a common thread to tie them all together.

Yusuke 憶測の部分もあるようだが、過半数の事件で大きな利益を得る立場にあった存在を特定している。 okusoku no bubun mo aru you da ga, kahansuu no jiken de ookina rieki o eru tachiba ni atta sonzai o tokutei shiteiru Some parts seem to be speculation, but she has cited a beneficiary of the majority of these incidents.

... and that beneficiary is Okumura Foods and its CEO Okumura, of course.

Now, we know that Okumura was responsible for deaths—there's at least one case where a car overturns and all four passengers, including a VP of one of Okumura's competitors, are killed. (If you're keeping count for Akechi, that's four dead in one day alone.) Okumura is Thoroughly Unpleasant. He's just not "responsible for most of the mental shutdowns that went on for years" unpleasant.

I think I have this translation right. It makes sense, for one thing, that Okumura was responsible for most of the weird scandals. It doesn't make sense that he was responsible for most of the mental shutdowns.
