The Faith Confidant – Kasumi Yoshizawa
Kasumi is the newest Phantom Thief and Confidant introduced in Persona 5 Royal. Same as the Protagonist, she is also a transfer student at Shujin Academy, though she is a first-year. She received a scholarship from the academy because of her talent as a promising rhythmic gymnast.
As a confidant, Kasumi represents the Faith Arcana which shares imagery from the Hierophant Arcana. Unlike other confidants, The Faith currently has five visible abilities.
Unlocking Kasumi
The Faith Confidant is automatically unlocked after the clean-up on May 30. Each time you reach the next rank, your HP will increase by five.
