Ann’s quotable moments and her loyalty to Joker and the Phantom Thieves make her one of the most well-liked characters in thePersonaseries so far.
Though Ann’s Phantom Thief outfit is a standout part of her wardrobe, aPersona 5fan took another of Ann’s looks and crafted an impressive cosplayout of it.

The hoodie also had a clover patch on the hood, which hung over the Shujin jacket. Ann’s Shujin outfit also included a red and black pleated skirt covered by the bottom half of the hoodie, coupled with red leggings and brown ankle-height boots. For Ann’s distinct hairstyle, M_anim_ wore a platinum blonde wig with curled twin tails.
