| ~ Yuuki Mishima |
Yuuki Mishima is a major character in the Persona 5 sub-series within the Persona series.
He is a second-year student at Shujin Academy, as well as the founder and administrator of the Phantom Aficionado Website, which enables the Phantom Thieves of Hearts to find and change their targets' hearts.
He is in the same class as Ren Amamiya and Ann Takamaki, and knows that the former is a Phantom Thief. He gives Ren information on targets in Mementos throughout the game so the Phantom Thieves can target them and change their hearts. Additionally, he is the Confidant for the Moon Arcana, which delves into Mishima's insecurities and his fixation with fame.
He is voiced by Daisuke Sakaguchi in the Japanese version and Sean Chiplock in the English version, the former of whom also voices Kaoru Yamazaki.
Overview
Mishima is one of the protagonist's homeroom classmates and a member of the volleyball team. At Kamoshida's behest, he was forced to spread nasty rumors about the protagonist to speed along his expulsion, but eventually turned on the abusive coach when things went too far. After Kamoshida's sudden change of heart, he deduces Ryuji and Joker's identities, and does his best to support them as the owner and admin of their official fansite.
Personality
Bullied, abused and ignored, Mishima is an isolated individual who craves freedom from his day-to-day tortures. Due to his passive and submissive nature, he tends to apologize whenever he feels like he's being an inconvenience to others.
Though he admits he was always motivated on some level by boosting his own status just as much as the Phantom Thieves', the growing popularity of the Phan-site exacerbates this across his Confidant line, peaking with him brazenly suggesting that the Phantom Thieves purge the nonbelievers. It gets to the point where they literally go into Mementos to talk sense into his Shadow, though he manages to avoid requiring a fight or a formal change of heart, realizing the error of his ways of his own volition.
Mishima works to make up for doing Kamoshida's bidding, such as spreading rumors about Joker. And again after his little power trip from managing the Phansite, after which he vows to continue using the Phansite to help people as it was originally intended to. Royal adds an extra layer to his atonement: He's the one who Kamoshida sent to fetch Shiho, right before Kamoshida sexually assaulted her. Mishima outright expresses his guilt over Shiho's resulting suicide attempt.
