In real life, Ashiya is a student who likes to spend his time with flowers and works at a florist. Once he’s in the Metaverse though, he becomes Cherish, who looks like a typical prince or knight from a fairy tale. A common sentiment in the comments on the Persona 5: The Phantom X Masaki Ashiya trailer via Bilibili is, “Bro, you’re so cool,” so his knightly ways have already stolen the hearts of the fans. His Persona II is Amalthea, who is the foster mother of Zeus in Greek mythology. You can check out a more in-depth look at his kit in this video as well.

Ashiya’s Chinese voice actor is Lin Jing. Jing’s previous roles include Heizou in Genshin Impact, Wise in Zenless Zone Zero, and Zheng Zha in Terror Infinity. In Japanese, Takafumi Maeuchi voices Ashiya. Maeuchi is up and coming voice actor with minor roles in properties like Mashle: Magic and Muscles, Shangri-La Frontier, and Lost Judgment.

Persona 5: The Phantom X is readily available on mobile devices and PC in South Korea, Taiwan, and China. A global version is in the works, and a closed beta test is scheduled in Japan.
