Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight	A classmate of the protagonist who used to live abroad. Codename "Panther." With her stunning good looks, she often does work in the modeling industry. She's straightforward, honest, and loves sweets and fashion. Her catwalk-worthy silhouette makes for a striking dance!

Nomenclature

In Japanese, Ann's given name is a pun playing on her mixed heritage: it uses a kanji like a Japanese name, but is homophonous with the western name Ann(e). The family name means "to wind high" and the given name means "apricot."

In Japanese material, whenever Ann's name is spelled in the Latin alphabet, it is spelled "Anne" rather than "Ann".
