~~I just know this is /r/persona and lmao~~ It's KIA
given the P3 story beats at the beach (which is pretty similar to Ryuji's shit little 'story beat' at the beach in P5) - I have no hope this is a pride pin, or at the very least, it is a pride pin and they will somehow tie it into a mission where you have to wait for the dark hour to beat up a bunch of crossdressers or something because they approached the group at the beach and said something like "hell yeah love the pin". (Who would even be wearing it in the P3 cast. Actually I take this back, it'd definitely be Fuuka)
I just played through Persona 5 royal and its so weird because the gay comic relief characters are absolute dogshit but Yusuke is clearly coded as gay and you can't pursue a relationship with him. Its almost like some of the dev staff were a lot cooler than others or things were altered in later development.
The relationship stuff in general is odd. The main character is clearly a college student, he has an apartment over a coffee shop, he goes to bars. Why not just age the characters up a bit, set it in university and make the whole thing way less awkward and creepy
Wait, I thought Yusuke was Aroace or something? My man only ever seems interested in art.
I read the lake scene as him being interested in the protagonist and he's clearly not interested in women. But I could just be inadvertently writing my own slash fiction here. Some googling reveals people debating for either side. Amusingly the question, "is Yusuke gay or European" is a top search question. I'm not sure what's going on there
