Persona 5 the Animation

Synopsis: Ren Amamiya, a new transfer student at Shujin Academy, is sent to Tokyo to live with his friend of the Sojiro Family Sakura after being incorrectly on parole to defend a woman of sexual assault. While she was on her way to participating on her first day in her new school, Ren realizes that a strange app appeared on her phone, transferring it to a world known as The Metaverse, which contains people's "shadows": distorted representations of their true Eus. In the metaverse, he wakes up his persona, a power of the background that gives him the strength to combat the shadows. With the help of equally problematic students, he forms the thieves of ghost hearts, trying to save people from their sinful desires "taking their hearts", causing the evildoers to regret their actions and deliver a new sheet. The group's reputation continues to grow explosively, bringing positive and negative fame.

However, during the peak of its popularity, Ren is captured and taken in custody. Here, he wakes up with a severe interrogation, but this is interrupted by the arrival of Sae Niijima - a promoter looking for answers. How will she react to his story and what will be the ghost thieves?
