thinking about how ryuji isnt really even like. always Conscious of how self destructive he can be at times?? nevermind how hes always like How can I protect everyone (often at the expense of himself) but like. when he told his former team mates to hit him if that would make them feel better?? likE HE JUST LET THEM BEAT HIM UP??????? CHILD?????
also atlus what The Fuck are you doing what is this writing why is ren just sTANDING AROUND. THE KID WHO GOT ARRESTED CAUSE HE STUCK HIS NOSE INTO A MATTER WHEN A STRANGER NEEDED HELP. WHY IS HE LETTING RYUJI TAKE ALL THESE LS. REN WOULD NEVER
ryuji: tells his angry ex-friends that they can hit him ren: NO?? NOT ALLOWED??
ren would sooner get in the way and risk getting expelled and ruining his future than let them hurt ryuji for something that was never his fault to begin with.
its like ryuji thinks. he can just be a human stress ball, if he makes someone he cares about angry. he isnt always good with words or apologizing so usually he just lets people kick the shit out of him if he thinks he had it coming. like. i have no doubt this kid had worthlessness beaten into him by his dad. emotionally and physically. (nevermind kamoshida) and i KNOW that a kid like ryuji would have tried to take the target off his mom if he could help it.
if hes going to get beat anyway, he might as well have some say over how and when it happens. trying to grasp at ANY control in his life. BUT JUST BECAUSE YOU THINK YOURE IN CONTROL CAUSE YOURE INVITING IT TO HAPPEN DOESNT MEAN THATS THE CASE...
but. god. due to everything hes been through. something in ryuji thinks he deserves more punishment than others for the same transgressions. hed take all the hits cause hey. hes…. good at taking hits.
dont talk to me im AUUUUHWHWAHGGG
since being a kid ryuji has dealt with the experience that in order for people to stop being angry at him and let off their steam, they just need to hit him to feel better. so he sees himself as that outlet, because hell, if anyone's strong enough to take it, it's him. as long as no one else's getting hurt, he'll take it and he'll be fine. he always brushes it off as not a big deal because he sees it as that. so i don't think he'd harbor any grudges for that stuff, even from his friends, which is well. not a good thing, man! plus of course him always stepping in front of others protectively to be on the front lines. he puts value in being a tank (which he is mechanically too by having a lot of hp and having his strongest moves be hp-costly moves waow symbolism).
it's really hauntingly accurate writing for a victim of physical abuse, and i use that word because 9 times out of 10 the instance is played for comedy or lighthearted tension release which .? in a vacuum slapstick is like fine. but in this situation it really is antithetical to persona 5's writing and what ryuji deserves
even with kamoshida he was less angry about physically feeling pain, it was the fact he couldn't run for a long while, the fact kamoshida overworked his team, the fact it led to his team breaking up, all this not allowing him to get some background and a scholarship for college, which mind you he seemed to care more about as helpful for his mom than for himself, and the fact all the blame was thrown completely onto him afterward. ryuji's awakening feels like one of the most powerful moments for him because it's one very rare one where he stands up against a person because they look down on him, among a sea of moments where he just allows people to.
so anyways basically all this to say yes he's either quite unaware of just how self destructive he is or he sees it as completely not a big issue at all and refuses to confront it as more than that augh
i could go on
YES!!!! it IS hauntingly accurate psychology for someone whos been through what he has. which makes them playing most violence towards him for laughs so stomach turning. godddddd and he still sees himself in some part as some angry asshole punk who fucked everything up.
and it was 100% about his team mates more than it ever was about him. of course he was pissed at kamoshida for the bullshit he was putting him through personally. anyone would be. but he was so much more pissed off on behalf of his team. who he saw getting abused every day. like. he was the star runner. he was CAPTAIN.
and kamoshida knew the kind of kid he was dealing with. each abuse dealt to ryujis team was another fork being stabbed into ryuji himself. kamoshida bringing up stuff from ryujis home life and spreading it around the school was just the fork that sent him over the edge. (and kamoshida got that information out of one of ryujis friends, who he hurt or blackmailed in order to do so.)
and we can clearly imagine how shujins well known oh-so-normal study body might have treated him when kamoshida started blabbing. hell, his ex-friends show us how. to his face. and in front of ren. comparing a child to his abuser. his mothers abuser. is fucked. (and lord knows how much ryuji might already worry about the ways he's like his father, in his temper) and ryuji could deal with the physical abuse. he could deal with the insults. all of which he'd learned to endure from his old man before. but. you talk about his family? you make the hell he and his momma had to endure the new school gossip? final straw. final fucking straw.
(im surprised he was even still attending shujin after the incident. i cant see his mom not wanting to pull him out. but i guess athletic scholarship money goes crazy though,,)
sometimes i think about how godawfully lonely he is before he meets ren. because he IS. and it hurts. it hurts a lot. (ryuji got attached to ren JUST as fucking quickly as ren got attached to him. honest to god) i think about how grueling his recovery must have been. nevermind physically. its hard enough emotionally. suddenly finding yourself physically disabled. but he was also abandoned and spat on by everyone who should have protected him and uplifted him.
except his mom. who felt like she had to apologize to him. and did. because shes feels guilt for not providing him with a full family. and god ryuji wanted to crumble into dust because making his mother worry that shes failing as a parent when shes wonderful for loving him and putting up with a rotten kid like him? he thinks thats his greatest sin of all.
came across this post again and just wanted to add onto this op
(im surprised he was even still attending shujin after the incident. i cant see his mom not wanting to pull him out. but i guess athletic scholarship money goes crazy though,,)
Through conversations/various dialogue we learn Ryuji still attends shujin because Kamoshida advocated for him not to get expelled or face charges for what happened. he has no record, then, but he has a reputation. the reason Kamoshida did this was to be seen as Ryuji's SAVIOR, not his abuser. He touted it as such. it was so the staff, students and parents would look upon him as the kind soul who gave the rotten kid a chance he didn't deserve, who was so generous as to not ruin his life even further. (it's sickening.) Adds a layer onto Ryuji's disdain for him, as well as how much Kamoshida controls the school by being perceived as their gold star.
Not sure if he lost his scholarship though, which is very likely to be how he got into the school, as we can see through his home life his family pretty much no way could have had the means to pay for Shujin, a prep school, tuition regularly. Him losing the scholarship, and therefore making his mom pay more for his tuition, also adds a layer to how much he feels like a fuck up disappointment to her especially, though its just lightly implied/not canon.
i know its not new years, but oh well persona girls in kimonos ^^
Would you guys kill me if I said I think Ryuji has self esteem issues. Would you take me out back and shoot me like a lame horse.
Everyone's always picking on him. He outright admits he knows he's not smart. Self esteem issues are very very common in abuse survivors. The whole school hates him and treats him like a pest. He doesn't ever mention such a thing but that doesn't mean they're not there just masked, there but unacknowledged, or he's not just unwilling to be open abt them. Apologizes for shit that's not his fault (ex. He apologizes if you heal him in battle) showing general willingness to blame himself for things when he shouldn't. Willing to let himself get hurt to appease the track team (doesn't value himself or his safety) He gets so caught up in the fame and positive attention bc self esteem issue havers crave external validation. Are you with me here or am I in too deep
To be clear I am referring mostly to self esteem issues along the lines of 'he's a pest that others don't like, he's stupid and only good at hitting shit, other people matter more than him'

Headcanon that Ryuji and Futaba both get their ears pierced after joining the Phantom Thieves- Ryuji wears circular black studs, and Futaba wears silver square studs. Ann takes them to get the piercing done and they both hold her hand during the process:)
