However, while the two have clear similarities in terms of their personalities and evolution, Vegeta's redemption arc grows stale in a way Akechi's never does. Throughout Royal's expanded Confidant events and new third semester content, Akechi's story builds towards an incredible redemption arc that neither brushes aside his crimes nor turns him into a caricature of himself.Īkechi's journey has drawn comparisons to that of Dragon Ball's Vegeta, another character who starts out as a villain with a particular hatred for the heroic protagonist who later becomes their ally. While he was already a memorable part of the game's original release, Persona 5 Royal expanded Goro Akechi's character arc in a way that transformed him from a somewhat sympathetic villain who ultimately does the right thing to a full-on antihero who deserves his place alongside the Phantom Thieves - whether he wants to be there or not. WARNING: The following contains spoilers for Persona 5 Royal.
