This is for ShuAke Week Day 2: Masks
MMD credits are at the end of the video so that I'll have more space in the description to explain about my video intentions!

This video was finished and uploaded privately on September 17th. It was then made public on November 17th (Exactly 2 months later lol). I reuploaded this video on October 30th because I realized that I forgot to add the translated English lyrics to it.

Song used: 十面相 (Ten Faced) by GUMI
Credit Song used: No More What Ifs Instrumental version

MMD CREDITS THAT I FORGOT TO MENTION IN THE VIDEO!
Microphone model: Alelokk

For those who don't know the song, the song is about a person having ten different personalities. That person is in love with a guy, but their 10 personalities fight over him. The guy they're in love with can only love one of them and wants to see their true self.
So in this case for ShuAke, I headcanon Joker having different personalities when he uses a different personas. He can wield 10 personas since he's a wildcard user. During the P5R spoilers I indulged in back in November 2019, me and some other goroboys have this notion that Joker tends to mold his personality to please his other confidants but express his true self when it comes to Akechi.

Akechi's confidant is different. He doesn't strike a deal with Joker, instead he just hangs out with him and doesn't mention anything about the Phantom Thieves case while doing so. They just hang out and learn more about each other. When Akechi says "I don't want you to change" to Joker, it makes me think that if Akechi is going to express his true personality to Joker, then Joker is going to express his true personality to him as well. For instance in the 3rd semester, Joker has choices that are against the player's intentions if the player hates Akechi. The player didn't wish for Akechi. Joker did.

So yeah in this video, Joker can wield 10 personas and develop 10 different personalities for it to mask himself. Falling in love with Akechi means all of his 10 personalities fall for him too and yeah, his 10 personalities fight over him , but Akechi wants Joker to be his true self. Satanael is Joker's ultimate persona that Arsene evolved to. I like to see that as Joker expressing his true colors which is why I showed Satanael in the video.

Also I rigged the Loki model prior to making this video. I did convert Satanael to MMD but didn't rig him yet, because I don't have much time to spare. I do plan to rig Satanael, Raoul, Robin Hood, and Hereward to MMD but I'll probably do that if I ever really need them for my other upcoming ShuAke videos or after ShuAke Week. And no, I WON'T distribute these models.

Lastly, I designed this video based off of the original Ten-Faced music video: youtube.com/watch?v=qZwxKQAiZq0
Also I apologize for the render glitch at the beginning
