Over the course of the Persona franchise, there have been tons of different takes on Persona users, including AI characters and even a plucky dog. While Atlus still generally prefers to cast human teenagers as Persona users, the Persona franchise tried some unique takes on super-powered protagonists in Persona 5 Strikers. For instance, Zenkichi Hasegawa is the first adult Persona user to join the franchise since the Persona 2 duology. Zenkichi's major role in Persona 5 Strikers could suggest Atlus will experiment with more age ranges for its protagonists in the upcoming Persona 6.
