''Persona 5 Abridged'' is an AbridgedSeries of ''Anime/Persona5TheAnimation'' by the abridging team Botch Brigade. Takes the base story of Persona 5 and does pretty much whatever it wants with it; changing around character personalities and motivations for the sake of dry absurdism and general silliness. Currently has 9 episodes thus far plus two shorts. Can be found [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEzJCsMx-QNaL8BKUu1yZMdbWSjKNBgsm here]].
!!Tropes
*{{Absurdism}}: Much of the humor relies on the overt silliness of the character’s personalities and their clash with the dead serious story being told.
*BlackComedy: Most things that comes out of Ren’s mouth. When he isn’t insulting the people around him, he’s actively wishing death upon them.
*CharacterizationMarchesOn: Ann’s personality in the first three episodes being that of a annoyingly GenreSavvy conspiracy theorist who believes she’s on television. Following episode 4, those aspects of her character have been dropped entirely in favor of her being the OnlySaneMan.
**In the glimpse of him we see in episode 1, Akechi appears to be just as snarky and violent as Ren. When we see him fully in Episode 4, however, he’s extremely scatterbrained, but also approachable and friendly, if a tad bit bizarre.
*{{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Akechi very much resides in his own little world; he believes that Leblanc having walls is “delightful”, is obsessed with Ren for no reason at all, and walks away from the camera during an interview nonchalantly.
*DeadpanSnarker: Ren, in spades. Ann also has shades of this, but mostly at Ren’s expense.
*DroppedABridgeOnHim: Madarame, who is merely sent to prison in the original, is unceremoniously given the electric chair following his prosecution in episode 6.
*EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: Most of the Phantom Thieves refer to Morgana as simply "cat".
*LeaningOnTheFourthWall: In episode 5, Ryuji remarking that calling a friend a confidant “sounds stupid”
*RunningGag: The word "hooligan" being used and treated as an offensive slur.
*UnexplainedRecovery: After seeing Loss gives Ryuji a heart attack, he appears alive and well in the next scene. Lampshaded by Ren.
