Persona 5 Abridged - Goro Akechi Recast
Hypnodisc for Goro Akechi
P5A's interpretation of Goro Akechi is that of an extremely scatterbrained ace detective, both utterly fascinated by mundane occurrences and completely accepting of the most unordinary. He is particularly obsessed with protagonist Ren Amamiya, for reasons even Akechi doesn't quite understand. There's a particular air of whimsy and intrigue to just about everything Akechi says, from his genuine detective intuition to his all too common non sequiturs and utter nonsense.
Akechi's voice tends to stay within the medium range, though will also fluctuate a between higher or lower pitch during events late into the anime. For the most part, Akechi's tone of voice maintains an air of extremely casual whimsy and curiosity; largely maintaining the same "matter of fact" tone for just about everything he says. His voice does not necessarily have to be an impression of the official material, and we are open to interpretations.
(normal tone of voice)
I must also thank you for the cup of “joe” in our previous encounter. I expected a large man by the name of Joe, but instead was given caffeine. A happy accident, if you ask me. I couldn’t sleep for a month. I thought I was going to die.(slight arrogance)
How peculiar. Concealing information? Got something to hide? I didn’t take you as the pushover type. It’s none of my business, despite me being the person who asked. I am an enigma wrapped inside a mystery. That’s what my mother said before she ran into traffic.(slightly threatening)
I cannot promise you that, your daughter may be one of the Phantom Thieves. ...Is she?
