History Trivia / Persona5AdultConfidantAU

** For Joker, it was to be revealed that [[spoiler:there is no ACAU counterpart, but instead the original Joker from ''Persona 5's'' BadEnding. The ACAU is meant to be a StealthSequel after Joker gave in to Yaldaboth's demand, only for him [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone to regret what he's done]] and team up with Lavenza to stop him. Without the bonds of his Confidants nor the public support, Joker is forced to rely on a desperate attack that [[CosmicReset resets the universe and alters the age of the characters Joker personally knows]], akin to ''[[VideoGame/Persona2 Persona 2: Innocent Sin]]'']]. The penultimate conflict before fighting Yaldaboth will be [[spoiler:a debate between Joker and Sojiro over whether or not Joker should restore the old universe at the cost [[TrueCompanions of the strong bonds Sojiro made with his teammates]], which leads to [[TakeAThirdOption a third option where they are able to preserve both worlds after defeating Yaldaboth]]]].

** In regards to Masayoshi Shidou and his father Goro, Shidou, [[spoiler:[[MrViceGuy despite his snooty attitude is generally a nice guy]] and is implied to be a proper Phantom Thief with his Persona Arsene]]. On the opposite side with Goro, [[spoiler:he [[RippleEffectProofMemory gets the memories of Goro Akechi]], causing him to few the ACAU as a fake world and lash out at the world in rage]].
