honestly im very glad they had her if only for the most beautiful moment of the first fight with akechi and her and shes like so like. is he always like this. is this normal.
it was completely incidental but the first time the sumi/joker showtime unlocked and i killed enemies with it akechi did his usual running commentary of the enemies after the battle so its just the showtime and then akechi saying disappointing and i laughed
honestly its better to have akechi just go out of nowhere JOKER FOLLOW MY LEAD [very intense showtime] after all the other ones where it is obviously planned
this playthrough had a few issues, first that my first controller was broken and i could not third eye until futaba's palace when i finally received a new controller so it was me very carefully squinting at everything. to not die
also akechi, earlier that month: fight me in the metaverse. [throws glove at joker's face.] i hate you
joker: [looks at the camera like he's on the office]
disappointingand i laughed
