Persona 5 Where Is Mishima In December

So, you're playing Persona 5, it's December, and you're probably knee-deep in Mementos or planning your next heist. But a question might be nagging at you: Where's Mishima? You know, the guy who runs the Phan-Site?
Well, fear not, fellow Phantom Thief! Mishima's not lost, kidnapped by shadows, or secretly working for Shido (probably). He's just... being Mishima.
The Case of the Vanishing Supporter
Mishima's storyline is a bit different in December. He doesn't vanish completely, but his usual hangout spots aren't where you expect him to be. It’s like playing a mini-game of "Where's Waldo?", but instead of a striped shirt, you're looking for a slightly awkward teenager with a laptop.
Must Read
The main reason for his elusiveness is the main story. December is a crucial turning point, with bigger things going on than the Phan-Site. The game kinda gently pushes him into the background.
Think of it like this: you’re in the middle of a superhero movie’s grand finale. Are you really going to worry about the fan club president getting enough screen time? Probably not! It's all about saving the world, baby!

The Mishima Hunt: Things to Consider
He might still pop up for specific storyline moments or if you’re wrapping up his confidant arc. So, keep an eye out for text messages or phone calls from him. Those usually give you a clue as to his whereabouts.
Check your messages frequently. That little buzzing sound could be Mishima needing your help, or just gushing about the Phantom Thieves. Either way, it might lead you to him.

Remember that building your relationship with Mishima is a slow burn. If you haven't maxed out his confidant rank by December, he might be harder to find. He has to be a certain rank for him to be available for hangout in December.
Why This Matters (Besides Completing the Game)
Okay, so finding Mishima in December isn’t exactly a game-breaking quest. But it highlights something kinda heartwarming about Persona 5.

The game is filled with memorable characters, each with their own issues and stories. Even Mishima, who initially seems like a slightly annoying sidekick, has a journey and a purpose.
By December, if you've invested in his story, you'll actually care about where he is and what he's up to. It's a testament to the game's ability to make you care about its characters.

The Takeaway: Mishima's December Vacation
In short, don't stress too much about finding Mishima in December. He's probably just busy being a loyal (if slightly overenthusiastic) supporter from afar.
Focus on the main story, keep an eye on your messages, and enjoy the thrill of being a Phantom Thief. You might be surprised when and where he pops up!
Maybe he's taking a well deserved break after hyping up all of your heroic deeds. Who knows? Just remember: Mishima is out there, always a believer in the Phantom Thieves!
