Thanks, Persona 5 Strikers, for this non-sucking adult

Oh my!  What a look, Mr. Hasegawa.

Person 5 Strikers It’s been a little over a week, so I feel pretty comfortable saying this:

Thank God for the Wolf!

The wolf (born Zenkichi Hasegawa) is the newest and only adult member of the Phantom Thieves. There are adults who help the Phantom Thieves and keep their secret, but until Strikers, there has never been an adult user.

And I love him. A lot.

I worried about him when he started coming around Ghost Thieves. Although there are some good people, such as the owner of Cafe Leblanc, Sojiro or Dr. Takemi, adults have always been villains in Person 5 series. So when a new one, a policeman no less, began to sit around Strikers, I thought he was going to have trouble. Super, another character to attach to just for the writers to turn him into evil. This is Dr. Maruki everything again.

He’s right, of course, but that’s funny coming from the mega-a rich and looked after child.

However, despite a few scenes in which it seemed painfully clear, Mr. Hasegawa plays the role Strikers gang to his advantage, proved to be one of the good guys. Helped by Tom Taylorson’s spectacular vocal talents, Mr. Hasegawa has a stammering tormentorwith his arm around him. He’s not too serious like most of the thieves’ allied adults. When he interacts with his young murderous partners, he takes their jokes about age or malice with the step. Finally, a personal user for adults!

Person 5 the series presents the ultimate fantasy of power: How much could life be if shit people simply realized they were shit and were stopped? In the Person 5 and Royal, this conflict was represented as adults vs. children. Adults receive a white card for shit, and the only people who realize or care are the helpless teenagers. Because of this, Ghost Thieves are rightly distrustful of them – adults are supposed to have the power to do justice to fools, but they are not. When Kamoshida abused children Person 5, none of the administrators intervened, not even in the face of overwhelming evidence. She calcified this idea that adults are either without ideas or accomplices.

Hasegawa introduces a much-needed gray into the black and white notions of ghost thieves.

But Wolf’s presence on the team adds nuance. He helps Ghost Thieves understand that even all powerful adults, who do all the rules, can suffer under the yoke of oppression and manipulation, and that it is better to work together than to fight. When his own daughter turned against him for not arresting his mother’s killer, Hasegawa reveals that he compromised his sense of justice to keep her safe. Then, after awakening his personality, working closely with the Phantom Thieves, he is finally able to bring his wife’s killer – who also happens to be responsible for all the changes in his heart – to justice. The collaboration between adults and children saved the day.

The man also shows that the Wolf looks good when he fights.

Oh! Hi Zaddy.

The cowboy price? Do you throw those guns? Do you make a huge sword? Calling himself “Wolf” ?? Oh my! She’s hot, not in this whimsical sexy way, but in that lonely father, with crumbs in bed, with a charming and vicious kind. And it has massive DBE – father, bodily energy. Mr. Hasegawa is basically a Japanese version of Jim Hopper from Stranger Things. And thank you God has grown, so I don’t feel bad to say that the Wolf is hot. Thanks Strikers, because in the end you let me feel free without guilt.
