** The Phantom Thieves, in particular Morgana, Ryuji, Ann and Makoto - without Joker’s leadership, they frequently bicker with one another and lack the cohesive trust of their canon counterparts. Ryuji, Ann and Makoto actively antagonise Akira because they believe he was responsible for Shiho attempting suicide, and whilst Morgana doesn’t actively antagonize him - being nothing more than a cat in Akira’s eyes - he allows Ann’s vendetta against the supposed delinquent to fester for months. Even Yusuke doesn't escape unscathed in this regard, as while he is still shown to have his own doubts that Akira is truly as bad as he’s told, he doesn’t do anything to act on his doubts further and proceeds to take the Shujin enrolled thieves at their word, [[spoiler:until he learns that Akira's shadow is the ''inmate'' of the Palace]]. While they later had [[JerkassRealization their]] [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone own epiphany]] after realizing how much they messed up, the damage towards Akira is already done. Of the canon group, the only members to escape this are Akechi, Futaba and Haru, who remain closer to their canon counterparts, whilst Kasumi is a non-entity to the main narrative beyond her cameo in [[spoiler:Maruki's interlude]].

* CerebusRollercoaster: The story as of writing leans heavily on the CerebusSyndrome side of the rollercoaster due to the ButterflyOfDoom in effect, starting from it's DownerBeginning and how things got progressively worse as it continues. While there are a couple of hopeful moments that imply that things might improve at certain points [[labelnote:Examples]] Akira befriending Haru, the Thieves finally getting their HeelRealization and take the first step to fixing their mistake with Akira. [[/labelnote]], that hope is quickly quashed as things take a turn for worse in one way or another [[labelnote:Examples]]Sugimura ruining things that prevent Akira from hanging out with Haru outside of Shujin grounds, [[spoiler:Ryuji and Makoto accidentally setting Akira's cognitive Maruki free and fused with the real Maruki's Shadow]].[[/labelnote]]. While the story does away the light-hearted and comedic moments of ''VideoGame/Persona5'' in favor of focusing on the ButterflyOfDoom in effect, it still had it's own hopeful and heartwarming moments that prevents the story from being considered a DarkFic.
