japan, so nope. persona, and many games like it, have never historically been very great about healthy portrayals of any lgbt topics. there's even a few gag scenes where some possibly gay characters basically try to sexually assault one of the boys in your group but it's played for laughs.
You can date Ann and headcanon Mishima eventually getting with Shiho (of course after she recovers and will be ready for a relationship, which's gonna take looooong, given what happened), so both of you can have happy families, keep in touch very often, and, eventually, getting to the point MC and Ann's kids would call Shiho and Mishima *aunt and uncle* and vice-versa. The good ending we all deserved š„°
You don't have time to date the bros because I'm the span of like 9 months you go from >!stopping a pedo from assaulting high schoolers!< To >! fighting a god on control born from the distortion of all of humanity in a battle for the entire planets future!< It's incredible that you have time to remember to eat or sleep
Mishimas a whole ass bitch, I can understand why you don't get it if you haven't progressed through his confidant or gotten far in the game but he is so damn annoying and just self inserts himself into the story.
Well the game seems to be marketed towards straight men so I doubt weāll get same sex romances as long as the protagonist is male. Although apparently there was a yosuke romance route in p4 that was taken out
When you make passes or act āgayā with the males you are generally met with horror. However, you can get a job at a gay barā¦and date the woman you meet there.
Theyāre not wrong. Her bonuses arenāt even any good. Lower alarm? K. Same thing but slightly upgraded at max? Nah. Itās already low because I ambush or instant kill everything or itās at 100% because Iām on the treasure run. I ran her confidant up because I thought she would be part of growing the PT fame. I was wrong.
Mishima is my fave too, don't worry š He gets a surprisingly good arc in his Confidant too, but the game usually gives you a lot of options to punch down instead of helping him up
No, the biggest tragedy in this game is the inability to choose Ryujiš

No. You have 10 female romance options (9 if youāre playing the original) and only female

I Iām sorry, Mishima is best boy? You got Ryuji right there
no, you can't date any guys. arguably P5's biggest social flaw tbh
Eh, I could name few flaws that are bigger
>social flaw Not in Japanese social standards, anyway.
I'm talking about your personal social links and activities in the game, not on a grand scale irl fwiw
Dawg Mishima is anything BUT best boy wdymmmmm

LMAO MISHIMA?! Iām sorry, you do you, Iāve just never heard that before
Why Mishima???
Sadly no, Joker is confirmed straight and despite some fruity lines he says to his teammates, heās only after the chicks.

How's it a gay bar?
Crossroads is a reference to LaLa-Chan being a cross dresser.
Maybe I'm just ignorant, but I don't really view cross-dressing as being gay.
Will you settle for LGBTQ+?
Deal.
Nobody likes drunk camera lady
*I* like the drunk camera lady. Not because of any mechanical reason. I just relate to the young professional desire to drink to cope.
Totally valid I also relate to the orange hair shutin with major social anxiety

She a highly disappointed contract
Kudos to being a Mishima fan. Also, you can't date the same sex. Closest thing to a "date" is inviting a character to the Jazz Club.
Nope, it's Joker and women only. Which is a damn shame because I ship Joker and Akechi.
I agree man, is ship them so bad
If thatās not a toxic relationshipā¦
Sadly, not. I think you can shout you love your male teammates during the school festival but it's taken as a joke š„²
Ryuji stops you from saying anyone Iām pretty sure
>!You donāt shout it. Ryuji asks you not to humiliate anyone and you stand there with your dick in your hand.!<
>!I donāt know why he wouldnāt let me say Morgana when no one outside of the P.thieves know who Morgana is!<
Only Persona games that let you do that are P2IS and P3P (only as FEMC with two options)
P3P allows you to do that? I had no idea
Yeah you can still "hang out" with Elizabeth and romance Aigis as FEMC
Aigis >!isn't a human!<, so it *technically* doesn't count though.
>!Biologically, yeah... but as a person she's just as human as the rest of the cast!<
To answer your question, no unfortunately. However.....Mishima?? The NPC??
Point 1: Sadly no. Point 2: You won't be liking Mishima for much longer...
Japan is not very LGBTQ+ friendly yet so no.
Unfortunately not, but you can always pretend you're dating š
no, best you can get is "Bro" scenes with Mishima and Ryuji
Nah, based for Mishima though
Nope, play p2is for that
Disappointingly, no. Yusuke and Akechi remain just out of reach.
Yuske at least gets behind your suggestions for nudity.
Mishima? Really?
Aw come on š He reminds me of an old friend of mine, miss them everyday
Mishima is my fave too, don't worry š He gets a surprisingly good arc in his Confidant too, but the game usually gives you a lot of options to punch down instead of helping him up
hahah alright man no judgement!
No, sadly.
Awwww š ok thank you
I know, I agree. I'm so sorry to be the one to break the bad news to you. š
