The Phantom Thieves Have Leaked the Main English Voice Cast of Persona 5!
The Main English Voice Cast of Persona 5 Are Ready for Some Phantom Thieving!
We’ve just received an email from the Phantom Thieves concerning Persona 5 goodies…
We’re the Phantom Thieves of Hearts and we’re ready to leak some news about Persona 5! We’ve discovered who the main English voice actors are and have stolen all of their marketing videos from the ATLUS vault. It wouldn’t be right in our eyes to keep this information, so how about we share it with the world? I know it sounds weird since we’ll be revealing our identities, but that’s just how we roll.
So without further ado, meet the “heroes” of Persona 5:
- Xander Mobus as the protagonist
- Cassandra Morris as Morgana
- Max Mittelman as Ryuji Sakamoto
- Erika Harlacher as Ann Takamaki
- Matt Mercer as Yusuke Kitagawa
- Cherami Leigh as Makoto Niijima
- Erica Lindbeck as Futaba Sakura
- Xanthe Huynh as Haru Okumura
- Robbie Daymond as Goro Akechi
They then released this information an trailer:
We’re still reveling in the fact that we outwitted those worthless adults at the ATLUS office, so why not also unveil the protagonist of the game? The protagonist is the newest transfer student of Shujin Academy in Tokyo. He had a bad experience with corrupt authority figures in his hometown, but he’s been given a second chance to start anew. Although he lives the life of a typical Japanese high-schooler during the day (such as going to class, hanging out with friends, putting in work at the batting cage, and more), by night he’s something much more than “typical.” Don’t let his clean cut school boy uniform and stoic demeanor fool you, because this kid is the leader of the Phantom Thieves of Hearts. Codenamed “Joker,” the protagonist is a wildcard who’ll do whatever it takes to steal the hearts of adults he perceives as corrupt.
They also leaked this awesome Q&A video with Xander Mobus, the English voice actor for the protagonist! Xander talks about some of his recent work, what it’s like portraying the protagonist, his experience with Persona, and so much more.

We choose to leave this email exactly as the Phantom Thieves wrote it to avoid angering them due to the risk of having them take down our site. If any of them (the Phantom Thieves) are reading this, please remind Futaba that we have a date on February 14, 2017.
