Persona 5 Strikers memes are popping up everywhere now the game has finally released worldwide, after being available in Japan for a year. There has been plenty of time for some great content to be made. A huge wave of hilarious and highly relatable Persona 5 Strikers memes surrounding Joker and the Phantom Thieves can be found all over the internet.
The Persona fandom is at it again, creating some of the funniest content out there. No matter who is your best girl (or boy), there’s a meme for every occasion. Here is a curated list of 10 of the funniest Persona 5 Strikers memes on the internet.
Warning – this article will contain spoilers for the end of Persona 5 Strikers and Persona 5 Royal. Read on at your own risk.
10 Protect Sophia at all costs!
Newcomer Sophia is ‘Humanity’s Companion’ and one of the funniest Phantom Thieves in tow. This humanoid AI manifests her consciousness onto Joker’s phone and can hold an adorable physical form in the Metaverse.
Some fans were hesitant to hear that Atlus would be introducing a new Phantom Thief into the mix in Person 5 Strikers. After spending 200 hours with Joker and the Phantom Thieves in Persona 5 Royal, their fears were understandable. However, Sophia’s eagerness and inquisitive nature are a joy to experience and leave us acting just like Rosa from Brooklyn 99 in these Persona 5 Strikers memes. Sophia has some of the funniest lines of dialogue in the entire game, making her a bonafide (Monafied) Phantom Thief in our eyes.
The real beep boop we all deserve!
9 Area 51
This highly accurate meme shows off what each of the Phantom Thieves reactions would be to the infamous Area 51 raid of 2019. This meme is hilariously true, even if Yusuke would definitely be in the “I came to explore the depths of Area 51 for the purposes of art, but I have no money to get back” camp.
The only disappointing part about this meme is that Kasumi and newcomer Zenkichi Hasegaw don’t get a look in. Kasumi would definitely be joining Yusuke at Area 51, whilst Zenkichi, codename Wolf, would be ‘Have fun getting shot, dumbasses”.
8 Persona 5 Strikers Got Us Like
This heartfelt meme from Disney Pixar’s 2007 animated classic Ratatouille perfectly sums up how it feels to see the Phantom Thieves in their hideout, together again. Fans definitely got a little bit teary-eyed when right at the start, the game gave Joker the option to text the Phantom Thieves group chat “I missed you…”. Even though Persona 5 Royal was released worldwide in 2020, it feels like ages since a new adventure has begun. Persona 5 Strikers doesn’t disappoint fans of the series. It has brand new adventures, with a familiar cast of characters that feels like coming home to a group of friends.
7 For The Digital Deluxe Homies
Persona fans won’t be surprised to hear that Persona 5 Strikers is a dialogue and cinematic heavy game. It is, after all, a sequel to Persona 5. However, it might come as a bit of a shock to Dynasty Warriors fans that their fast-paced hack-and-slash game has a lot more story and dialogue than they might be used to.
Whilst it’s true that some Musou games, such as Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, have much deeper lore and narrative, Persona 5 Strikers definitely doesn’t shy away from it. Don’t forget about auto-mode, it can come in clutch in those particularly dialogue-heavy sequences.
6 Society If We Got DLC…
Fans and critics alike are falling head over heels in love with this stylish and fast-paced adventure. The game caters near-perfectly to every audience. It has the fast-paced, spinning combat players might expect from a Koei Tecmo game. To round it off, it has the thought-provoking narrative and hilarious characters that Persona fans will be expecting. But, after sinking many hours into this newly-released game, fans have some unanswered questions. Could a DLC pack be in the works? There’s no official word from Atlus yet. But Persona 5 Royal was released 3 years after base P5, so never say never.
5 Funny Dialogue
If gamers have played through the first Jail, they’ll know exactly who this NPC is simping for. Alice is a Japanese idol who is promoting her new fashion label. Unfortunately, she’s also the Monarch of the Shibuya Jail.
Her design is… risque, to say the least. Some Persona 5 Strikers fans have… taken to this promiscuous lady, which is hardly surprising. However, her sexualised outfit and mannerisms aren’t enough to win the leader of the Phantom Thieves over. This line of funny dialogue has become a meme in Persona fandom, acting as a reminder for players to keep their own desires in check.
4 For real!?
This hilarious art posted by Redditor user u/Io_Coco4lyfe combines one of the funniest Game Grumps animated videos with Phantom Thief Ryuji’s infamous catchphrase ‘For Real!?’
If players have met Ryuiji, they’re bound to have heard him utter this phrase more than once. At any opportunity, good or bad, players can bet that this exclamation will be coming out of Ryuji’s mouth. This lackadaisical, happy-go-lucky character doesn’t care if it’s appropriate or not. Whilst newcomers to the series might find this catchphrase annoying at first, it tends to grow on the majority of players by the end.
3 Makoto Best Girl
One thing that the Persona franchise is known for is its stylish opening cutscenes and funky music to bop to. Persona 5 Strikers is no different. With its colourful aesthetic and jazzy, upbeat original soundtrack, the Persona 5 Strikers intro is definitely one of the strongest.
Like many before it, it gives an introduction to the characters you can expect to see. For fans of Persona 5, this feels like meeting up with a group of friends you haven’t seen since high school. For newcomers to the series, it is a welcome insight into the characters. Makoto’s codename ‘Queen’ has been a meme in the Persona community for some time.
2 Strikers but it’s AMONG US
Among Us was the hit viral sensation of 2020. This multiplayer game was everywhere on the Internet and nobody could escape it. It didn’t matter if people had never even played it, Among Us was huge. The game has definitely decreased in popularity a little bit over the first months of 2021. However, the Internet can never let a joke go.
Among Us is now infiltrating different communities as an ironic, self-aware meme that references the prevalence of the game in its prime. The subreddit /r/OkayBuddyPersona is just one of many subreddits where ironic ‘Amogus’ memes can be found en masse.
1 P5R > P5S
Persona 5 Royal adds about 20 hours of extra content to a game that already takes an average of 97 hours to complete. Persona 5 Strikers is more akin to the length of a traditional Persona game. This game will take an average of 35 hours to beat.
Some hardcore fans might be upset that the game is not as long as the Phantom Thieves’ debut. However, it’s important to remember that this is a Koei Tecmo game. This means it has much faster combat and no Confidant links. Some fans, such as Reddit user u/DrDeli_, need to finish Persona 5 before starting Strikers.
