There’s a new Persona shitposting mascot in town, and it’s a shoulder-barging menace who serves as a terrible example of a very real problem. The series’ bad guys have always erred more on the side of caricature, and nobody exemplifies that more than Persona 5: The Phantom X’s first villain—former baseball prodigy turned salaryman Takeyuki…
