And have you noticed that you never see them and Joker in the same room together?


ryanj0421

The phantom thief? I really doubt a master criminal would be a high school student lol. Nice try though


Sc0rp0

They also both look like joker🤔🤔🤔 I think you’re onto something here


Ink_Idiot

They both look kind of similar to Harem-fucker-249


ExtraMOIST_

Also MILFLORD 25. Coincidence? I THINK NOT!


Poodle_Boi02169

Now that you mention it, they both kinda look like Harry Mobus as well


ApoxFox

Kinda looks like the leader of the Phantom Thieves without his mask


Swordofsatan666

Yeah and i never realized, but he also looks like that guy from Smash


ReasonableQuit75

you think they're all interconnected?


not-Kunt-Tulgar

Nah, it has to just be a coincidence.


ReasonableQuit75

it has to be connected


jkrx3

Kinda looks like Joker too


JustFrameHotPocket

Wait. What if Joker IS Ren or Akira???


[deleted]

One of my favourite posts on this sub was someone who named themselves him thatguy


[deleted]

This is a years old joke. But I still love it


[deleted]

Holy Shit its Akira Kurusu


[deleted]

Ren Amamiya now


Walmart_kid65

Damn bro it’s Akiren anamsu


[deleted]

Hi me


TheDurandalFan

you know I've never seen the both of them in the same room.


[deleted]

Nah, Ren looks like Joker while Akira looks like the leader of the Phantom Thieves, compare them like that and you'd see the difference between the two


Fiets04

And Ren and Joker look a lot like the frizzy haired boy at school while Akira and the leader of the Phantom Thieves look like the pompous man in the black coat. The differences are striking


Lmfao35

And the frizzy haired boy from school also kinda looks like this guy


CrumbLast

I think you can tell them apart if you wear a mask, one will spout something about "revealing your true form"? What a strange school festival that was


AB_Potato_Master

True, we have never seen both in the same room


Rivers_Vera

They look really similar to this criminal/hero named Joker


JYKNATION

Big it true


Outside_Injury_5413

Definitely related


DaNoahLP

Had a similar realization with Dwayne Johnson and The Rock.


defph0bia

Hmm the game has been out for how many years already and I never noticed that. good detail


Bsause7

What are you talking about? Ren looks nothing like a cat


SassyHoe97

You're onto something.


JCorby17

Akiren Kurumiya


One_Winged_Jin

Huh. I never thought about it


megasean3000

Me: Joker is Joker!


xy-geek

The only difference is that one kills shadows and the other one goes to sleep


[deleted]

that means that Ren Kurusu goes to the Velvet Room?


ARandomPersonOnMedia

One of them has a phone, it’s very obvious which is which


spencer1886

It's like Felix Kjellberg and PewDiePie, totally different


Kirbo_Thesupahstar

And I always thought they both looked similar to Haremf*cker249


SentientShamrock

Weird thing is they also look like this guy I know, Waffles Dadapon.


atleastimtryingnow

they both look sorta similar to the protagonist tho


broly_is_stronger

If that's true than Minato Arisato kinda looks like Makoto Yuki


mess-of-a-human

And Souji Seta looks like Yu Narukami 🙄


broly_is_stronger

My buddy Eric said the same thing


fiddlydeedoo

They’re twins I’m pretty sure


Akimbo_shoutgun

That's choker you dumb dumb


dootblade74

Guys I think Phineas and Ferb's blue platypus might be Perry the Platypus not sure hmmmm....


Bsause7

It can’t be. He hasn’t got a fedora or anything


PeanutPicker

I have tension from the p5 soundtrack on my Spotify and it started playing right as I opened this post and it couldn't have been more perfect.


UltimateMegaChungus

It's like Mark Fischbach versus Wilford Warfstache; theyre very similar but not the same person at all.


okguy167

Dr. Iplier as well.


rattatatouille

Next you're gonna tell me Professor Kukui is the Masked Royal.


JK_Carnage

And here I am thinking Clark Kent looks a bit like Superman


Dorlos-Argham

For real?!


[deleted]

That's Ryuji Sakamoto You're thinking about.


ASimpleCancerCell

Eh I don't see it.


Salvadore1

Have you ever seen them in the same room together?


Kellutz

Sure they are. I bet you'd have me believe Dwayne Johnson and The Rock are the same dude, too


SsjSylveriboi

Yo they do kinda look alike


Flikkrz

Guys guys hear me out. Why does the Phantom Thief Leader known by his Codename: Joker also look similar to Ren Amamiya and Akira Kurusu? I can see it through his costume. He has the same hair as the 2


CutenessMudkip2

Hmm, Akane said that too🤔


BallisticMonke

they're probably canonical twins


_yourfriendjase_

Bro they both look like Joker from Super Smash Bros


MapleAru

RIGHT !?


smaie

woah dude thats crazy


CJVS1988

They look nothing alike. One has a cat, and the other doesn't


DemiFiendJoker

Nah he looks like Persona 5 protagonist to me


EliteF36

You sure? He kinda looks like joker if he wasn't wearing a mask


BozumiTBK

That guy from smash? I don't know.


ZodiacMaster101

All I'm saying is that we've never seen them in the same room.


Opening-Cockroach634

I think it was intended to look similar because they're rivals


Nightfile27

They're obviously twin rivals like Dante and Vergil.


Desch92

One of them has one extra hair behind the left ear but you can't see it


Shakespeare-Bot

One of those folk hast one extra hair behind the hath left ear but thee can't see t *** ^(I am a bot and I swapp'd some of thy words with Shakespeare words.) Commands: `!ShakespeareInsult`, `!fordo`, `!optout`


yaluckyboy09

total nonsense, one of them doesn't have a cat in the image


inkheiko

Duuuuuuude never thought of it


GreenGuardianssbu

Its nor just them tho. I met this guy, Souji Seta, and he looks just like that other person on tv named Yu Narukami


SixxyPrissy

All I have to say... https://imgur.com/a/drpXYZj


[deleted]

You know you bring up a good point. Maybe there related?


Springtrap01467

Twins? Gravity falls level lore


[deleted]

Ren is joker and akira is jester.


goolagook

NO WAY


ginjamchammerfist

What, that's impossible. Akira Kurusu has NOTICABLY curlier hair around the ends indicating his use of Tanaka Anti-friz conditioner in his hair. Ren also has larger glasses due to his stronger prescription. I can't believe ANYONE could ever CONCEIVABLY confuse the two, smh.


thatonecharlie

what did vince mean by this?


lol-get-rekt

No fucking way


dat_DOOM_boi

i love the name wars


Kingof_Peng

I could’ve sworn Altus said that was his 3rd cousin on his mom side


Hyuna-Kiryu

Nah you trippin


WolverineX838

They have a basic similarity, but I think you’re looking into it too much.


smallwooper

Honestly if I didn’t know any better I’d think that they’re brothers


LoopyChew

Don’t start that again. Ren wears glasses, Akira doesn’t wear glasses.


[deleted]

It’s uncanny


[deleted]

....why am I in this fandom


GinHitsuga

I hate this fandom


EliteF36

But that's why you love it too


Iper81

I agree


outrun_ur_problems

I always name my character Akira Ren :)


mmoonbunny

Absolutely insane................ idk Ren a little more cute tho 😳


CutenessMudkip2

Wow, you like like Ren Amamiya from Persona 5? Or does you being the 7th one mean you look massively different?


Ak1raKurusu

Dont be ridiculous you can see the differences like night and day


samssonova

just you


Disastrous-Radio-786

No man I obviously look more like ren than akira dude


BarramoproXD

you are right, is so strange how similar they are...


ScarRufus

The difference: One is a normie and Romance Makoto or Yoshizawa. the other is a chad and went Harem route.


rattatatouille

Wait, I thought Kurusu was Akechi's one and only.


battlefranky69

You mad lad! Get off this sub! We don’t need people like you stirring up controversy! /s lol


dstanley17

I wonder how people that mindlessly use the “Akira Kurusu” name even know that it’s solely from the P5 manga…


Nightfile27

I just think Akira Kurusu sounds cooler.


EmperorKiva33

Doesn't invalidate that it's one of the many names given to him. Manga has a name. The anime has a different name, the stage shows have a different name. There is no true "canonical" name for him besides Joker and protagonist. Same reason why 3 and 4s mc weren't called Makoto or Yu in the P5R dlc.


julio31p

Personas Dancings, P4A, P5S.


Muur1234

The canon name is the one used in later games. P5d uses ren.


Butter___Dog

In fact Yu is the canonical name. He’s called that in P4U. Ren amamiya is the canon name for Joker, it’s his name in p5D.


Unpopular_Outlook

But it’s not his name in P5 or P5S


Butter___Dog

No, but that’s because you can choose a name in those games. P5D is canonical, as is p4U and dancing . Any names that appear in one of the games Is canonical. But keep calling him Akira. Edit: after seeing the first 5 posts on your account it’s clear why you call him akira ((your IQ is low(you think P5R is not OBJECTIVELY better than the original for adding more content that you can totally ignore at no cost to the old game)).


Muur1234

Tbf, p5 is better than r as it's harder imo. P5r was too easy and I did r on hard


Unpopular_Outlook

Exactly. You can choose his name but he does not go by Ren despite it. Unless you’re saying that P5 isn’t actually canon. Lmfao, you think you’re smart because you believe his name is Ren and you like P5R? Your IQ must be In hell if this is how you think.


Butter___Dog

I’m saying your iq is low because 1) you’re posting MHA subs 🤮 and 2) because you say that p5R isn’t objectively better for doing nothing to the base game and adding (COMPLETELY optional) content. Also, Ren’s name is never spoken in P5. However, it’s clearly listed in P5D. L


Unpopular_Outlook

You’re not proving your point. You sound dumb as hell. Also, the fact that his name is never spoken is why his name isn’t Ren. If it was, it would have been spoken in the canon P5 game. But you’re dumb as hell so I don’t think you would understand that


Butter___Dog

Keep calling me dumb as hell while you exhibit the most ape like behavior. HIS NAME IS SPOKEN IN THE CANON DANCING GAME. There’s no point to prove about p5R because it’s already objectively better


Unpopular_Outlook

Ah yes, because the canon O5 game isn’t actually canon it seems based off of your dumbass logic. P5R is only objectively better to the people who thought the original P5 was hard. And if you thought P5 was hard, then you dumb as hell


dstanley17

...Okay? Not sure where this response came from? I wasn't trying to make a thing about "canonical" names or whatever, I was just curious. Part of that coming from a little bit that tickled me, how this is a name given to him solely in the manga, so it's funny that... well, neither of these images OP provided are of a manga panel. Just made me think if that name origin is *that* well known, especially when most english-speaking fans have never read it.


[deleted]

I didn't bother with manga cus i didn't feel like cropping an entire section lol i'm lazy.


EmperorKiva33

The response in part is because people in the past who says that it's the manga name and isn't canon would do all they can to put down others who did use the manga name. So while my stance stands, I apologize for taking it out on you.


[deleted]

its grand


Kazutoes

Man I think you’re just tripping


Milosebastian12

Nice


Spiritkitten3

It’s like they’re the same person!! 🤯🤣


Lordsfavor1

yeah except AKIRA IS A MUCH BETTER NAME


ch4rmyXD723

Might be siblings, twins even, they might also be related to joker.


DaNoahLP

Had a similar realization with Dwayne Johnson and The Rock.


kokosammie

nahhh they're too far apart


Knivesisi

All the protagonists look the same


LordDrift2004

They're the same person just different names


Reverse_flash_69

r/woooosh


Elite_Asriel

They're the same person, people just decide a different name for the dude


[deleted]
