雨宮蓮 主人公(ペルソナ5) 来栖暁 ジョーカー(ペルソナ5) 主明 雨宫莲
The Persona 5 player character. Voiced by Fukuyama Jun (JP) / Xander Mobus (EN).
The name used for his tag is lifted from his anime appearance, Persona 5: Dancing Star Night, as well as being the default name for the 2022 re-release of Persona 5 The Royal. Previously, the manga adaption gave him the name "Kurusu Akira". His codename among the Phantom Thieves, "Joker", is used as his official name in some other sources, such as his appearance in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
The leader of the Phantom Thieves. A 16-year-old young man and second-year high school student who transfers to Shujin Academy. He seems quiet and well-mannered at first glance, but gives a completely different impression once he has donned his "phantom thief" guise. He finds residence at Cafe LeBlanc, run by Sakura Soujirou, after getting expelled from his school for being accused of assaulting a man who was molesting a woman.
The following tags are aliased to this tag: joker_(persona_5), kurusu_akira, and protagonist_(persona_5) (learn more).
