What is the Protagonist’s Name in SMT V: Vengeance?
Every fan and player in the community is curious of what is the Protagonist’s real name in SMT V: Vengeance. We might have the answer!
The long-awaited Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance has finally arrived, immersing players in an epic battle between angels and demons. As the mighty demigod Nahobino, gamers must fight to save the world from destruction. But many fans wonder if the protagonist has a canon name?
What Is SMT V Vengeance Protagonist’s Canon Name?
When starting a new game, you have the freedom to choose any name for your character. However, there are hints that the developers may have had a specific name in mind for the Protagonist in SMT V: Vengeance?
Kei Amemura – The Unofficial Canon Name
The name Kei Amemura has surfaced among fans as a potential default name for the protagonist. This name was discovered through a debug menu in the localized version of the original Shin Megami Tensei V. When a player modded the game to skip the naming process, the name Kei Amemura appeared by default. However, it is important to note that this name is not present in the official game material or promotional content.
Interestingly, in the Japanese version of the game, the protagonist is simply referred to as “Shujinko,” which means Protagonist. This further complicates the idea of Kei Amemura being a canon name, as it is not consistent across all versions of the game.
The Role of Nahobino in SMTVV
In Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance, the protagonist is known as the Nahobino, a title bestowed upon him following a critical early story event. This title, similar to SMT III’s Demi-fiend, signifies the protagonist’s unique abilities and his fusion with a powerful entity named Aogami. The term Nahobino becomes a core part of his identity within the game’s narrative.
That said, it’s not unusual for official names to be revealed later in the Shin Megami Tensei series. There’s still a chance that the developers will announce an official name for the protagonist in the future.
In the end, the lack of a canon name gives you the freedom to personalize your own character. Whether you prefer Kei Amemura, Nahobino, or want to come up with something entirely original, the choice is yours. The protagonist’s identity is in your hands!
