The confessional (懺悔室*)? is a mechanic in Persona 5.
Appearances
Profile
The confessional can be found in Kanda Church and can be used after talking to the priest. The protagonist will be able to bring a party member with him, and by having them confess their guilts in the private booth, they'll be given the ability and option to relearn one old skill. By doing so, time will pass. In Persona 5 Royal, any amount of skills can be relearned.
All of a character's Personas share the same list of skills, so it doesn't matter how different evolutions interact with one another within the system. The only exception is the special skill given to second and third-tier Personas when the Confidant of their user is maxed out, so lower-tier Personas cannot learn special skills of their higher-tier counterparts.
Goro Akechi's skills between Robin Hood and Loki are separate, and the skills of one Persona cannot be transferred to another.
In Persona 5 Royal, in New Game Plus, it is possible to have party members remember skills they have learned in Jazz Jin. The only exception to this rule is Futaba Sakura, who needs to be brought to the jazz club again to have her relearn her related support skills.

Trivia
- If Morgana is brought to the confessional, the protagonist will come inside to translate for him.
- There is no window in the game where the protagonist may bring Morgana with Mercurius, Morgana's Ultimate Persona into the confessional, since it is only used on December 24 and (in Persona 5 Royal) January 9, dates when the protagonist cannot partake in daily activities. The confessional can only be used after his Persona has evolved into Diego.
- The same applies for Goro Akechi and Sumire Yoshizawa with their third-tier Personas, Hereward and Ella respectively, as their awakenings only occur after the calling card for Maruki's Palace is sent.
