Hifumi Togo was originally meant to be more involved in the main story of Persona 5, and a possible party member. As one of my favorite confidants and characters in Persona 5, I can’t help but wonder about what could have been if she was a party member and what role she could have played in the story. Below is a concept of her Persona, Phantom Thief appearance, and skills. This was mostly used as a way to gather research for a later fanfiction project, but is also for fans that wanted an idea of what Hifumi could be like in the party dynamic.
I am not Japanese but this concept has a lot of Japanese influences, which I feel is only fitting for Hifumi’s character, her background and personal story. I have done my best to research this. If anything comes up as insensitive or incorrect, I do not mind corrections or suggestions. Finally, I want to thank imazombiebutterfly who has spoken with me about concepts and helped give me some ideas, particularly with her Phantom Thieves outfit. I hope she can show what she has drawn to everyone soon!
