EP 02Climax — Self-Sacrifice SceneLate game

Falling for the Team

The moment he draws the enemy's attention alone to let the Phantom Thieves escape. Loud and impulsive on the surface, but always the first to throw himself in when it counts. His teammates' reaction when he makes it back is one of the reasons fans remember him.

💭Personality Deep Dive

Blunt and impulsive, but the most genuinely loyal member of the team. Outrage at injustice is his direct fuel for action. He acts before he thinks, but that same impulsiveness saves the entire group when it counts most. Loud and boastful on the surface — yet always the first to sacrifice himself for a friend.
