Room decorations in Persona 5 Royal have no intrinsic value. They don’t contribute to the ending, the achievement only requires one, and even the Thieves Den reward only cares about getting five specific items.
However, collecting decorations can really liven up a clown’s drab bedroom, and players can earn some old-fashioned bragging rights by collecting them all. Each item commemorates a different Tokyo location, so they also show that the player has done their best to explore the Japanese capital. For those looking to fill their shelves, here’s where to find all the room decorations in the game.
crane machine doll
In Persona 5 Royal, the hub location of Akihabara was unlocked in September, which is very late. One destination in this center is the arcade, where the clown will find tower confidantes as well as many crane games. Players can interact with the crane on the far left, and if they’re lucky, the crane will grab a box doll that the clown can place on his desk.
Each attempt to catch the doll costs 300 yen (not a lot of points in the game), and the clown can try five times a day to catch the doll. The odds of success are never perfect, but they do scale up with the clown’s proficiency, and playing a crane game never lets time pass. The odds also go up on days ending in the number 7 (7 is a lucky number in Japan).
In Royal, the Joker can win eight dolls from this machine. Each must be won in order, and the next one will only appear on the Monday after the doll is acquired or on a specific date, whichever is later. This is the earliest date each doll can appear :
toy doll
date
jack frost doll
9/1
Hamburger Doll
9/22
Wanna Jun doll
10/14
Lux doll
11/3
goat figure
11/25
black frost doll
12/15
Buchimaru doll
1/13
heightened doll
1/23
As the listing indicates, the full set of figures is only available to players who have successfully unlocked the third term. Players will earn the achievement Going Against the Crane for collecting one doll and the Thieves Den reward ARCADE Addict for five.
shelf decoration
The Joker bedside shelf holds a total of nine items. The Joker can collect all of these items by inviting his confidants to various Tokyo destinations, but some of them are harder to come by than others. First, the clown must know a certain location before he can invite anyone to visit. Locations are unlocked by reading certain books, reaching certain confidant levels, and taking certain outings when invited.
Second, the confidant must not prepare to take the lead. If they are, the ranked event will fire and the Joker can’t invite them anywhere. Third, the Joker can choose to visit any location in any order with some henchmen, but with other henchmen Joker can only go to specific locations in a specific order.
Fortunately, Joker can always hang out with henchmen up to level 10, so most of these decorations are easy to get, even if the player always gets full points in the event. Any exceptions will be noted below. Here’s what players need to do to fill their shelves :

Several other decorations will fill the rest of the room. Some of these take up their own special spots on various walls and support beams, but some of them take up a spot next to the plants, and the player can only have one item in that spot at a time. These are mutually exclusive items :

Players will notice that Balloons are particularly difficult to obtain. This is because players will only be able to visit Fateland with Shinya on certain holidays and Sundays, and later in November the theme park will close for the winter. Also, as far as the community knows, Shinya is willing to go to Destiny Land only 6 and 9 times. Players will also need to choose some wrong answers in Shinya’s ranking event to get a chance at the party.
