Munehisa Iwai Confidant Guide
Munehisa Iwai is the Hanged Man Confidant in Persona 5 Royal. Maxing out his Confidant unlocks the fusion of Attis. The player will also receive an item from him near the end of the game which will unlock all customizations at his shop once his confidant is unlocked in New Game Plus.
Munehisa Iwai Availability
Iwai's Confidant can be started by asking him about the paper bag he gives Joker on May 6th. While it can be started anytime after this date, it does require rank 4 Guts. Inquiring about the paper bag awards you with a modified Tkachev, whether or not you have the required Guts.
Time can be spent with Iwai on Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday Nights. On Rainy Days, he's available all day.
Note that some events in the game may override this.
He has Hangouts in Inokashira Park and the Planetarium.
