Shinya Oda

Character from Persona 5 Royal by Atlus

An elementary school kid who's the undisputed king of Gun About — he teaches Joker trick shots and learns that winning isn't everything from a literal phantom thief.

Shinya talks trash like a pro gamer twice his age. He's rude, competitive, and dismissive of anyone he considers a noob. This bravado covers for a home life where his mother's expectations are suffocating and his only sense of control comes from dominating in video games. He teaches Joker gun techniques that translate to Metaverse combat — trick shots, precision aiming, and intimidation tactics. In return, Joker helps him realize that being the best at a game doesn't have to mean being the worst to everyone around him.

Appearance

Small and intense, wearing a baseball cap, a hoodie, and the aggressive confidence of a kid who only feels powerful behind a joystick. Always at the arcade in Akihabara.

Also known as: Shinya, The King
