persona 5 royal work at flower shop

The Persona series has always stood out with its social system, where interactions you have outside of dungeons give you benefits inside dungeons. Persona 5 Royalis no different. Across the 22 Confidants in the game, you can earn everything from higher health and SP to special abilities and specific Personas. Earning it all, though, requires specific actions and, more importantly, specific dialogue choices. In this guide, we're going to cover everything you need to know about Confidants in Persona 5 Royal,including the ones you can romance.

General Confidant tips in Persona 5 Royal

Before diving in, here are some general tips for maxing out your Confidants in Persona 5 Royal.

Equip the right Persona

Before you meet someone, check their arcana affiliation in the pause menu, and make sure you have in your possession a Persona that matches it. Your rank with them will increase more quickly if you do. If you want to meet a specific person and don't have a persona with the same affiliation, you can always head to the Velvet Room and summon one without using up a time slot.

Know the right spots

Later in Persona 5, you'll be able to choose a hang-out destination from your map when hanging out with a confidant whose bond isn't close to ranking up. Choose hang-out destinations that match your friend's interests, like the museum for Yusuke or a restaurant for Ryuji.

Buy all the gifts

Buy all the gifts you can in the underground mall and other locations, so you always have options when it comes up. This applies only to characters that you're able to romance, although gifts can come in handy whether or not you're looking to start a relationship.

Pray for friendship

If the confidant you want to rank up isn't around, pray for them at the Meiji shrine (once you unlock it as a destination). Your progress toward the next rank will increase even though they're not available in that time slot, priming your social link for the next time you do hang with them.

Check the map

By pulling up the map with R1, you can actually see which locations have confidants — there's a little icon next to a train stop if there's a buddy there. Even better, you can get more info about them if you highlight that stop and hit the square button, including who's there and whether your link with them is close to ranking up.

You can check the next confidant skill

If you navigate through the confidants section in the pause menu, you can actually see the next skill or perk that ranking up a confidant will provide, as well as what level you need to get the rank to. This can be useful when deciding how to spend your time.

Save-scum

Save-scumming refers to the practice of manually saving your game before undergoing an important action or choice, then re-loading that save if something goes wrong. If you're stressed about making a mistake while building up your social links, like choosing the wrong dialogue or giving the wrong gifts, you can always resort to trial and error.

Confidants in Persona 5 Royal

You can level most of your Arcana simply by socializing with your Confidants. However, some Confidants are only available on certain days or during certain times of the day, so it's best to learn their patterns to maximize your playthrough. Here, we're going to run down every rank for each of the Confidants in the game, as well as the rewards you get for reaching each rank. Dialogue choice matters with some Confidants, so we have the dialogue options below.

Some Confidant ranks require that you're on the path to the true ending, too. In order to achieve the true ending, you'll need to reach Confidant rank 9 with Maruki by 11/18, rank 8 with Akechi by 11/24, and rank 5 with Yoshizawa by 12/18. You'll also need to refuse every offer presented to you in your third semester. Without spoiling anything, you'll know when it comes up. Also, playable characters have an Awakening rank, which transforms their main Persona into something else. This rank only applies if you return for the extra semester in Royal.It doesn't apply to the base game.

We have dialogue choices below, including the correct choices for romance options. Some Confidants have follow-up phone conversations, but the feature is exclusive toRoyal.Any romance options only come up during the last two ranks, ignoring the Awakening. Also, some Confidant lines only level up during conversation, but dialogue choices don't matter. These Confidants simply have "social" in the "how to unlock" column. You can jump directly to a Confidant using the links below:

X. Fortune (Chihaya Mifune)

Chihaya Mifune is a fortune teller in Shinjuku, and unlike the Confidant lines we've covered so far, you can miss her line entirely. Before you can unlock the Fortune Arcana, you need to visit Chihaya after 6/22. Once you find her, ask her for a reading, then return on a different day and purchase the Holy Stone from her (100,000 yen). Finally, return to her a third time to get the "Ending the Boyfriend's Abuse" Mementos request. Complete it, and you'll unlock the Fortune Arcana.

Once it's unlocked, you'll find Chihaya in the same spot during evenings on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday. She's not available when it rains. She is, however, a romance option, but you'll need some specific dialogue choices to unlock her romance line before the last two ranks. We've noted those in the table below with "(R)."

XI. Strength (Twin Wardens)

The Twin Wardens give you their Confidant line almost immediately. Instead of interacting with them, you need to fuse a Persona with a specific ability to progress the Confidant line. Doing so doesn't advance time, and you can progress any time you could enter the Velvet room. Finding the correct Persona with a certain ability is complicated, so we recommend having a fusion calculator handy. If you're new to Persona 5,make sure to read our fusion guide, too.

Although it doesn't take any time to progress this Confidant line, you'll need to reach max rank by 12/24. You should be able to reach it before then as long as you regularly visit Mementos to capture Personas and register them in the Velvet Room. We have recommended unlock paths below, but you can unlock each level in a number of different ways.

Rank	How to unlock	Reward
1	Jack Frost with Mabufu Level Jack Frost up to level 12	Group Guillotine:Unlocks fusion with three Personas instead of two.

You'll need at least rank 4 Guts to start the Confidant line, and you'll need maxed out Guts to complete it. There are a few ways to increase your Guts, the most prominent of which are taking the Big Bang Burger challenge and undertaking a clinical trial with Takemi.

You'll continue to find her there during evenings every day of the week, even when it's raining. Inchiko is a romance option, but otherwise, there's nothing special about this Confidant line.

XVI. Tower (Shinya Oda)

Before you can start Shinya's Confidant line, you'll need to complete the "Winners Don't Use Cheats" quest (Mishima will send you a text on 9/4 to start the quest). After completing the quest, head to the Arcade in Akihabara to speak to Shinya to start the Confidant line. You'll find him there after you start on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday afternoons, regardless of rain.

To start Hifumi's Confidant line, there are three things you need: The second rank in Yusuke's Confidant line, access to Kanda (unlocked through the TV on 6/25), and level 3 Charm. After, you'll find Hifumi on Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday evenings regardless of the weather.

XVIII. Moon (Yukki Mishima)

You don't need to worry about Mishima's Confidant line too much. The first two ranks are automatic, and from there, he'll send you Mementos requests. Regardless of your dialogue options, you'll level up Mishima's Confidant line when you meet with him. Make sure, however, to complete the Mementos requests as he gives you them before progressing the Confidant line. You can find him during the evening every day of the week, even when it's raining.

Rank	How to unlock	Reward

XIX. Sun (Toranosuke Yoshida)

Just like Mishima, you'll automatically progress Toranosuke's Confidant line each time you meet, regardless of your dialogue choices. He's a little tougher to find, though. He's only available during Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday evenings, and he isn't available when it's raining. Also, you'll need to complete his Confidant line before 11/13.

To start, go to Shibuya Station Square on 5/6 at night (the first night you're able to leave Yongen-Jaya). Toranosuke is there giving a speech on the street. Talk to him, then take a job at the Beef Bowl Shop across the street and work there twice. Afterward, talk to Toranosuke again to start his Confidant line.

10	Social	Charismatic Speech:Allows you to capture Personas higher than your current level. +3 Charm

XX. Judgement (Sae Niijima)

You don't need to worry too much about Sae's Confidant line, which appears well into the game. As long as you're on the path to the true ending, this bond will pretty much take of itself, maxing out well before the end of the game. You don't get any rewards for doing so, though. Also, the Judgement Arcana skips directly from rank 6 to max rank.

Rank	How to unlock	Reward
1	Automatic (7/9)	None
2	Automatic (7/24)	None
3	Automatic (8/22)	None

6	Automatic (10/28)	None
10	Automatic (11/20)	True Justice:Prevents you from getting the bad ending.

Faith (Kasumi Yoshizawa)

Of the newest Confidant lines in Persona 5 Royal , you'll likely begin right away with Kasumi on 5/30. Keep in mind; her character isn't available at your convenience; she's only available after school. Her specific Confidant line consists of two parts; you have until 12/22 to obtain the fifth rank and fill the first part.

The next part of her Confidant line starts straight away on 1/12. After that, you'll find that she's available on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday afternoons. Kasumi is a romance choice in this game. You can try to win her over by obtaining a Mini Cactus and a few Designer Perfumes from the Shibuya Underground Mall.

Rank	How to unlock	Reward

10	Social	Cendrillon transforms into Vanadis.
Awakening	Automatic (accept text message on 2/2)	Vanadis transforms into Ella.

Councillor (Takuto Maruki)

To start Takuto's Confidant line, which typically launches on 5/13, it's important that you have a Persona in the Councillor Arcana equipped by at least 5/10. If you already have that, you'll find that you can instantly win over the first two levels, but you'll need that persona to get additional points from your conversation.

After 5/14, you'll be able to hang out with Takuto relatively often. She's usually free most afternoons, except for Thursday and Sunday, regardless of the weather. Keep an eye on your calendar, though, because you'll have to lock in the ninth rank before 11/14.
