Ichiryusai Madarame is the second major boss of Persona 5 and the Ruler of the Museum of Vanity. A world-renowned artist, famous for the variety of his art styles, Madarame was once an art teacher and an honest hard-working artist. However, some years after taking in the young Yusuke Kitagawa, he grew lost in his rapidly growing fame and began scamming art collections with fraudulent copies of Yusuke's mother's masterpiece.
