  But Why Tho? - Eva Herinkova

  Overall, Persona 5 Volume 4 is highly dependent on character development and dialogue, managing to nail both of these aspects almost perfectly. While visually the volume can be confusing at times, this set of chapters gives fans much to look forward to as we watch the Phantom Thieves grow in the face of adversity and carry on their mission against the evil, corrupt adults of the world.

  There are several narrative jumps in this storyline that are usually signaled by a blank white panel with one bubble of dialogue.  Even knowing what they look like, the jumps are still confusing at times.  There are a couple of characters that may have been flashed to within other volumes that the audience is supposed to remember from one volume to the next, but I am not grasping who they are.  I am really glad that there is this other storyline of the investigations going on because I was not seeing the longevity of a storyline hopping from one corrupt adult to another with little storyline happening in the real world.  We also get some really good insights in this novel as to Akira's past, so I imagine that will play into things in the future as well.
