I asked this on the talk pages but never got a response, what is the source for Guernica's birthday? I haven't been able to find it anywhere, and honestly I'm suspicious it's true since Guernica isn't playable and therefore probably wouldn't have a canon birthday. Thanks!
What's on your mind?

Make the comments look like this guy’s search history
Since ingame P5X doesn't have set date and all the daily activity doesn't affect the canon day. Thus all the character profile date can cause some comfusion. So what's the average birthday start and end? and what years does it take in place?
This post is a joke
JOKER WHAT
He has 2 moods when it comes to bottle of dr pepper
Sakura,a cherry blossom tree nymph and a close friend of Ichiryusai Madarame,walks inside his studio.She looked…quite angry with him. She towered over him and spoke in a serious tone.
”Speak truthfully…were all of your paintings your life’s work?”
Madarame's smile almost immediately faded at Sakura's arrival, his gaze averting from her. He sighs and puts on a more humble and soft-spoken character.
"..Of course, why do you believe I would do otherwise?" But Sakura saw through his lies immediately,and her tone became shaky as she spoke.
“You're lying,and I never knew that you would do such a horrible thing…. Even the paintings you gave me are all forgeries…When I realised that,I felt so betrayed that I threw them into the fire…”
Hearing this,Madarame seemed a bit taken aback by her anger.
"Sakura you've truly misunderstood..” He says, voice slightly shaky. He took a step back, his body language starting to become defensive.
“Well,I do not want to talk about this.I will no longer sponsor you and our friendship is over.” she replied calmly even though she was angry.With that,she walked away,slamming the door behind her.Madarame looked at her,devastated,realising that his only friend was gone forever…
Now fully alone in his room, Madarame felt devastated. The one person he thought he could trust completely and kept close to him, he had lost, all because he got a little too greedy. Madarame sighs, sitting down on his bed, the silence and emptiness of the room feeling rather heavy on his soul.Two months later,news of his amoral actions began to spread and as a result his reputation became tainted and one by one, his students left him.Heartbroken and filled with guilt and shame, he fell into depression and accepted neither food nor drink.Shortly,he wasted away and was transformed into a withered cherry blossom tree-one that never blossomed or grew leaves,as a punishment for his deceit.
A year passed,and Sakura was walking in the garden as always.When she noticed that only one cherry blossom tree did not have any signs of life,she clutched her paper umbrella in her hand and wondered why,then every single memory came back to her.The man she had once called “friend” was turned into this tree.Sakura sighed,if her former friend had more integrity,he wouldn’t have to end up this way.
I've got the true ending perfectly done, aside from one thing. In akechis confidant, apparently you have to pick "You're my rival." I didn't. I picked "I'll think about it." Am I screwed or not? Aside from that so far I've done everything that I know of (maxed all the confidants, picked most of the dialogue options (I'm in saes palace and awaiting the send of the card)
So the persona youtuber Faz released a video of the opening anime scene for P5X

Is the Stages in Tactica are in similar of being distorted world a Metaverse?
Quick thing I wanted to jot down that I think would give strong context for Morgana's running away in Okumura's arc.
So for starters, one important thing to know about Morgana is that he's of a specific character archetype. He's a "pet," so he has no moral code meaning that you can't really expect anything out of him. Koromaru and Teddie are of that, and Teddie embraces it especially with how he behaves. One unique writing trope is that you can't really expect them to be "cool." I won't go in detail of how the two handle the trope, but basically Koromaru embraces it and only protects whenever necessary, while Teddie is an elaborate gut punch that builds up to something meaningful but forces you to double-down.
Exposition out of the way, Morgana's a character that seeks a moral code, or a "reason to live." At first he didn't have one and was willing to do whatever it took to achieve his goals: trick Ren and Ryuji, take the risk of afflicting a mental shutdown in Kamoshida, etc. Eventually Morgana would warm up to the Phantom Thieves, and it becomes a pretty prominent point past Futaba's arc during her recovery, when he becomes protective of her. You can tell Morgana's "changed."
But during their beach outing, Morgana ends up being referred to as "useless" by Ryuji, made fun of it even. That bothers Morgana: he tries to point out that Ryuji himself is unserious, but that doesn't make Morgana feel better. Rather, Morgana's upset about the idea that he's useless because it reminds him that it's not expected of him: that he can get away with it because he's a "pet." Ryuji can be criticized for exposing the Phantom Thieves for the millionth time but from Morgana, he can do whatever he wants and he'll be fine, and that bothers him.
That's the crux of the argument in September, Morgana wanted to prove he had a moral code, so he established unfitting standards on the Phantom Thieves that would clearly be detrimental under that context: they were about to act purely under the general public's desires, and the sudden influx of their fame unsettled them. It is later revealed that their fame was a trap set up by the conspiracy to frame them for murder. Under this context, what Morgana sought would completely destroy the Phantom Thieves. And again, remember that Morgana is "just a pet." He can "get away with it." And "that bothers him."
Morgana started an argument with Ryuji, accusing him of having become arrogant. Ryuji points out that Morgana is in it for himself too, but that is a reminder of Morgana's own origins: he doesn't have a purpose, and it's a reminder of just who Morgana is. So Morgana, holding himself back under his own standards, believing he doesn't belong, and he runs away because he wants to prove himself to the group.
That being said, Morgana did find purpose in the group, and that's his sense of justice. In Mementos, he decided he'd protect those he cared about, and that's the only sense of justice he needed. And rewind to Okumura's, the party encouraged him to let go of these superficial reasons and tell them how he truly feels.
That being said as a pet character Morgana has a similar style to Teddie. Not exactly a "gut punch" but leaning more towards a "what-if" than actively trying to manifest it. Like you're just left with this empty feeling after having faith in Morgana. And when you wonder about it, you try to see if it works, but it doesn't 100% "fit."
I think the pet archetype just consists of disappointments: you can call Koromaru one too, especially if you're introduced to him after all these well-rounded, intriguing characters, then he has an implied backstory, but as you try to look at him and see what makes him special, you just see a regular dog.
EDIT: I fixed the paragraph above, but I think that the mascots fulfill at least 1 of 2 roles: they leave you kinda left with just yourself after finding out your search is pointless, probably to make you realize that it's the search that mattered, something along the lines of "the real treasure was the friends we made along the way." Probably not, but the mascots exist to encourage you to find new depths in the mundane and think outside the box. No matter how many times you play, you'll see the pet characters and you'll be instantly lured to think about them having potential depth. Koromaru's for plot enthusiasts, Morgana's more user-friendly like "hey what could Morgana turn out to be?" And that way of thinking makes things interesting that the rest of the characters cannot do: they're like paintings, there is no incentive to look at them and understand them. But on second thought, yeah you'd be intrigued by the characters especially early on. And you don't need the pets' help for it.
TLDR Morgana is a disappointment by design and he doesn't like it. He's a pet to keep things interesting and keep you engaged.
They should've given Morgana doping imo
Those two do look like mother and son if you think about it
