TGS Sidequest – The Persona 5 Exhibit In Akihabara

Part of what I love about Japan is you know what you'll find. If you know me, you know I'm a figure collector and that a lot of my trips here are spent figure hunting. I happened to be out in Akihabara on a hunt today and came across a special Persona 5 exhibit in the Kotobukiya shop there. I knew what I had to do, take pictures for you all to see. Check out the shots below to relive your glory days with the Phantom Thieves.

If you wanted to, you could test your hand at this shooting gallery and win a prize by knocking down particular standees.

Pro Gamer Shinya Oda was of course on hand in case you need any tips.

I'm also using this feature to announce and confirm Makoto is best girl.

Last but not least, a throwback to all those text conversations you had. Joker looks pretty cute, too.
