History

"Childhood nickname of Goemon Ishikawa. During his youth, he was raised among the Iga-ryu ninjas before he set off on his own to become a rogue ninja."

—Persona 5 Royal compendium

Ishikawa Goemon (石川 五右衛門^*)^? was a Japanese outlaw, and Gorokichi was his birth name. The historical Gorokichi is only mentioned in two sources, both of which were created after his death. The first one, the Toyotomi Hideyoshi fu (豊臣秀吉譜^*)^?, details his attempted assassination of the shogun Hideyoshi Toyotomi, his capture and his execution alongside his young son in 1594. Gorokichi's death by being boiled alive was also described in a second historical source by Pedro de Morejon who transcribed his name as "Ixicava Goyemon." As time passed, Gorokichi's story was expanded to make him a hero similar to Robin Hood, robbing the rich and giving his spoils to the poor. Stories from the 19th and the 20th century also make him out to be a skilled ninja. Gorokichi and his infamous death eventually became the subject of various bunraku and kabuki plays.
