Epilogue[]
In the end of persona 5 royal, joker sees his reflection and the viewer sees what could be Akechi. Thanks for making us mad and leaving us on a cliffhanger Atlus. That wasnt very cash money of you.
The Pancake Liberation War of 2037[]
Akechi stopped being dead in 2037 because his father, Shido, God-King of New Zealand outlawed pancakes. Naturally, he obtained the Blue Orb and summoned the legendary pokemon, Kyogre. Unfortunately, the people of New Zealand never saw their Right to Pancakes, as Akechi accidently sunk New Zealand under the ocean while killing Shido. For the next approximate millennium Akechi felt very sad and ate pancakes until his eventual overdose in 12099.
