Character from Persona 5 Royal by Atlus
A disgraced politician giving speeches to empty sidewalks in Shibuya — No Good Tora refuses to stop believing in democracy even after democracy stopped believing in him.
Yoshida is what happens when idealism survives disgrace. He was framed for embezzlement decades ago, and instead of disappearing, he kept giving political speeches to anyone who'd listen — which is usually no one. He speaks with genuine passion about civic duty, government accountability, and the power of individual voices. He teaches Joker public speaking, and in doing so, teaches him that words can be as powerful as Personas. His arc is quiet redemption — proving that consistency and sincerity eventually matter, even in a cynical world.
Portly middle-aged man with graying hair, a rumpled suit, and the stubborn posture of someone who won't step off his soapbox. Wears a campaign sash that no one reads. His voice carries across Station Square even when no one's listening.
Also known as: Yoshida, No Good Tora, Tora-san
