Futaba persona 55/12/2023 ![]() It got to the point where Futaba would sometimes think her mother cared more about her research than she did about her, an insecurity that only worsened when her mother died and she was read the fake suicide note. Part of this was due to her isolation for being a genius, with other students thinking she was a freak due to her eidetic memory (things she's reminded of when she's given a tour of Shujin), while the other part was due to her mother working long hours to support her, meaning the two hardly ever got to spend time together. Makoto even states at one point that she's glad she's on their side, with fear of what she'd do if she was their enemy.Įven before her mother's death, Futaba was quite a lonely child growing up. She also has a rather ruthless side to her not only does she have zero qualms with hacking, to the point of bugging the protagonist's phone so she can keep an eye on them during their trip to Hawaii but she cares little for the group's main goal of reforming society she only wants to find out the truth behind her mother's death, and get revenge on the ones responsible, which she admits is an extremely personal reason. An example of this is when she insults Mishima by calling him an "NPC" due to his "overwhelming forgettable appearance" and "generic speech style," and says that it would be worse to lie about what he is. However, due to being socially inept, Futaba is often extremely blunt, to the point that she seems to have no concept of tactfulness. Although she still has occasional anxiety and odd habits, she comes off as bright, playful and cheerful when with her newfound friends. Once she's truly comfortable around others, she shows her childish side and likes teasing her friends, particularly Ryuji, Yusuke and Morgana, and sometimes Makoto as well. Her Arcana is the Hermit, which fits with her desire for isolation and instinctive need to push people away from her.įutaba begins to change after meeting the protagonist and the other Phantom Thieves, opening up to them more and becoming more relaxed around them. Her room acts as a sanctuary and a refuge from the chaos and noise of the outside world. When she first leaves her room after her change of heart, she tends to hide behind the protagonist so that she won't be seen in public, or wears masks which make it impossible to identify her. ![]() When first encountered, Futaba is so consumed with self-loathing that she suppresses her desire to live, causing her Shadow Self to represent her positive thoughts rather than her negative ones. Having disconnected herself from humanity and the world beyond her room, Futaba is lonely, lives without passion and enthusiasm, suffers from suicidal depression, and questions the point in her living. She communicates with the world remotely via the Internet, and her adoptive father Sojiro enables her lifestyle out of guilt that he could not protect her from trauma. When first introduced, she is a hikikomori who does not attend school and almost never leaves her room. With a case of social anxiety bordering on agoraphobia, combined with the trauma of losing her mother, Wakaba Isshiki, Futaba is strongly discomfited by going outside. This outfit was inspired by sci-fi movies like Tron. Her mask is a pair of big black goggles with orange lenses. Her Metaverse costume consists of a skintight black bodysuit with fluorescent neon green glowing strips and matching black boots with neon green soles. Her nightwear outfit consists of a black shirt with "JLMK!" (presumably "just let me know") over a white-and-black striped long sleeve shirt and the black short shorts she wears with her winter outfit. She wears grey baggy pants with black laces on the bottom, and green sneakers. Her casual summer outfit consists of a black tank top with a Tetris image in front, with a green tank top underneath. on the back (for "away from keyboard"), although it is difficult to see because of Futaba's long hair. Her casual winter outfit consists of multiple layers she wears an off-shoulder white top with a red splatter-like pattern on her chest with five white asterisks (*****) which are reminiscent of a passport input system in the red splatter, a black tank top underneath that, a dark green jacket with a faux fur trimmed hood, black short shorts, black thigh highs and black knee-high boots. She seems to be very short, even compared to other girls. She wears large black circular glasses, and she is always seen wearing a set of AKG K845BT headphones with red earpads. Her brown eyes also seem to have some faint purple tones in them, appearing mauve. Futaba is a bespectacled girl with hip length black hair dyed bright orange.
