So, we have one protagonist with dead parents, one with a probably non-existent relationship with them and seems basically adopted by his uncle and one whose relationship was most likely ruined and prefers his landlord. Think the next Persona protagonist will have their parents as an enemy?

Wake me up at your own risk.

Persona 2 had a final boss monster made of dads.

Even better, The parents should be the final bosses, and are in fact Eldritch horrors in themselves.

The main protag can be like Kirby in that his wild card ability is because he's a good Eldritch horror.

What about siblings?

Like i read this one where Joker had an actual little sister that he has a terrible relationship with even before the incident with Shido.

Only if he destroys half the city to defeat the final bosses. Its not Kirby without a destructive rampage out of indignation at stealing his cake so now everyone must die.

Another thing about Japan is that the Prosecutors also like to go after the most obviously guilty people and that the Judges tend to be looked down upon due to historical troubles.

[up] Yes, its the plot of one game but HURR DURR KURBY MURDERS EVERYBODY OVER CAKE has been the primary way this site has talked about the character for the last decade. It's gotten really old.

The more prevalent part is Kirby seemingly can't go a single day without killing a god at some point.

Must we take wholesome characters and reduce to them to memetic psychopaths?

Kirby games have unironic good lore starting with Return to Dreamland.

Kirby lore is the best fucking lore ever. It's never actually the focus of a game, but they drop enough info for people to go wild with speculation.

Just want to share this if we are talking Kirby and Persona.

[up] One of the latest games had the Big Bad going mad with grief over the loss of his daughter, attempted to use a space super computer to wish her back, sort of succeeded, but then is unable to remember her and goes insane.

Someone's Persona could be Kirby. I doubt Atlus would be able to get permission, though.

What trait would level up by reading about Kirby, though?
