Ren Amamiya/Joker (Persona 5)

Ren Amamiya (known as Akira Kurusu in Persona 5: The Animation) is the main protagonist of the critically-acclaimed 2017 game Persona 5. At the beginning of the game, he has little to no power or influence in the world and is restrained by the rules of the system he was born into. However, beneath his quiet demeanor is a strong-willed Wild Card leading the Phantom Thieves and capable of exploiting the Metaverse. To his teammates his code name is Joker, and to the residents of the Velvet Room he is known as the Trickster. He is the leader of the rebellious Phantom Thieves of Hearts which aims to change society by touching the hearts of people and performing illegal heists.

Why He Rocks

 * 2) He made friends with Ryuji/Skull, Ann/Panther, Morgana, etc during the game, despite being (wrongly) accused of assaulting a man (who is Masayoshi Shido).
 * 3) He attempts to change the hearts of those who are corrupted and he always succeeds on it (except for Sae Niijima).
 * 4) He is very intelligent.
 * 5) He saved Japan from being called the Holy Grail.
 * 6) The scenes he has with Morgana are rather heartwarming.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) He doesn't talk a lot. Although this is very common for previous Persona protagonists.
 * 2) We don't get to learn much about his relatives.

Trivia
