In the 2016 video game Persona 5, which character uses the codename “Panther”?

In the 2016 video game Persona 5, Ann Takamaki uses the codename “Panther.” Ann is one of the Phantom Thieves of Hearts, the group of students who enter supernatural Palaces to change corrupt people’s hearts.

Ann’s Persona is Carmen, and her Phantom Thief outfit and codename draw on her role as a bold, theatrical member of the team. The codename is not a direct retelling of the Greek Pandora myth, but Persona 5 frequently uses mythological, literary, and artistic references when naming characters and Personas.

Ann attends Shujin Academy and is introduced early in the game. Her friendship with the protagonist and her connection to Shiho Suzui are important parts of her personal story and character development.

The other listed names are also Phantom Thieves, which makes them plausible alternatives. Makoto uses “Queen,” Futaba uses “Oracle,” and Haru uses “Noir,” so the exact codename identifies Ann.
