Persona 5 Strikers - Goemon Persona Stats and Skills

Guide for Goemon, an Emperor Arcana persona, in Persona 5 Strikers (P5S). Included are Goemon's stats, skills, strengths, weaknesses, and more.

Goemon

Known historically in Japan as a famous outlaw, Goemon is depicted in tales as a champion of the poor, akin to Robin Hood of the West. Among the most famous of these stories is his attempt to assassinate the shogun Hideyoshi Toyotomi. Further folklore describes him as an exceptional ninja, with his death of being boiled alive adapted into many Bunraku and Kabuki plays and movies.

Goemon’s appearance in Persona 5 references his depictions in ancient ukiyo-e paintings, giving off a heavy theatrical look to the legendary outlaw. He sports a pale complexion typical of the traditional Japanese plays, and holds a pipe with an axe head at the end.
