Inspiration: Innocence, Osho Zen tarot card
Persona 5 takes inspiration from the theory of archetypes by Carl Jung's and the book "Tarot an the archetypal journey” a book that combines the theory of archetypes and the symbolisms of the Tarot.
Yusuke in the game is related to the Emperor's card, as a tarot reader, I find it fun to look for what other tarot cards that would define him.
Innocence is a card that describes a person who lives life like a child but without begin one. The innocence of children is beautiful but ignorant. It will be replaced by distrust and doubt as the child grows up and learns that the world could be a dangerous and scary place. However, this innocence shows a person who has lived a full life and his intellect and acceptance of changes make his vision of life like that of a child.
Yusuke's innocent attitude does not arise from ignorance, arise from his sensitivity, knowledge and acceptance of his life.
