Use this Persona 5 Royal crossword answers list to match the LeBlanc date, read the clue, and enter the answer without spending a calendar slot.

Quick answer
The fastest way to use Persona 5 Royal crossword answers
Open the table when you are at the LeBlanc crossword book. Match the date or clue, enter the uppercase answer, and remember that the puzzle stays available if you miss its first night.
- The first entry is SEMESTERS on April 18; the last is OROCHI on January 27.
- Crosswords are completed at the book on the left side of Café Leblanc at night, and completing one in Royal does not use a time slot.
- The answer order is stable, but a missed puzzle repeats later, so a late start does not permanently lock you out.
- Finishing 15 crossword puzzles awards the Word Wizard achievement in the Thieves Den; the Knowledge gain is the everyday reason to keep solving them.

What this P5R crossword answers guide covers
Complete answer sheet
1. Persona 5 Royal crossword answers by date
This is the page to use when you want the direct answer. The book in Café Leblanc presents a short clue, and the answer table below keeps the first available night beside that clue. The date is a useful guardrail because a player may remember the answer but confuse it with the next puzzle in the sequence.
The list follows the English release wording reported by the RPG Site reference. Persona 5 Royal uses the same crossword content as the original game, but Royal makes the activity more valuable because solving a crossword does not consume the evening. If you play in another language, the clue text may be localized while the puzzle order remains the same.
How to scan the table
- Start with the in-game month and day, then check the clue before revealing the answer.
- Enter only the answer letters that are highlighted by the puzzle; you do not need to fill every square to complete the activity.
- If the date has passed, continue checking the book on later nights. Unsolved crosswords wait for you instead of disappearing.
Dates below are the first available nights used by the English guide. The clue wording can look slightly different in another localization, so use the answer order and the nearby date as a second check.

In-game workflow
2. Where to find the P5R crossword and what happens after a miss
The crossword book sits on the leftmost table inside Café Leblanc. Visit it at night when a new entry is available. The game presents the clue and highlights the squares that matter, which is why this guide can stay focused on answers rather than reproducing a full crossword grid.
A missed first night is not a failed calendar decision. The puzzle remains in the pool and appears again on a later night. If several entries are waiting, the book lets you work through them in order. That makes this activity different from a deadline event: the list is a planning aid, not a countdown.
A reliable three-step check
- Confirm that the location is Café Leblanc and that you are interacting with the crossword book, not the television or another table.
- Match the clue to the answer row. When a clue is short or translated differently, use the date and the answer order together.
- Complete the highlighted squares, collect the Knowledge increase, and return to the book later for the next entry.
Why solve them
3. Knowledge, exams, Confidants, and the Word Wizard reward
The practical reward for a Persona 5 Royal crossword is a Knowledge increase without using the evening. That makes the book especially useful early in the school year, when you are balancing Confidant meetings, reading, part-time work, and stat-building activities. A single puzzle does not replace a full Knowledge plan, but it is an efficient free check whenever the book is available.
Knowledge also affects the wider calendar. It can contribute to exam ranking and helps satisfy social-stat requirements for several Confidant routes. Treat each crossword as a small buffer: solve it when you notice the book rather than waiting for the exact first date and then trying to recover a missed entry.
What the reward does and does not mean
- The Knowledge gain is separate from exam answers. Use the classroom answers guide for school questions and exam chains.
- The crossword activity is not a Persona fusion or combat system, so it does not change your compendium, equipment, or Palace route.
- RPG Site reports the Word Wizard Thieves Den award after 15 solved puzzles. The page does not claim a platform trophy unless the game platform lists one separately.
- If you are prioritizing a Confidant deadline, the free Knowledge boost is useful, but it should not replace a calendar plan for that route.
Version and localization notes
4. Persona 5 vs Persona 5 Royal crossword differences
The crossword content is shared between Persona 5 and Persona 5 Royal, so an older answer list can still contain the right words. The meaningful Royal difference is the time economy: solving a crossword in Royal does not take the evening, which turns the book into a low-cost Knowledge source.
Do not treat every online date as an unbreakable deadline. The first-available dates are the cleanest way to plan a complete run, but a missed puzzle repeats later. If a guide uses a different first date, compare its clue sequence and localization before assuming the answer itself changed.
Quick comparison
| Question | Practical answer |
|---|---|
| Is the answer list Royal-specific? | The crossword content is shared, but Royal makes it a free-evening Knowledge activity. |
| Do I lose a puzzle after the first date? | No. An unsolved entry can appear again on a later night. |
| Does every localization use the same clue text? | No. Clue wording can change, so use the date, order, and answer together. |
| Where do I check exam questions? | Use the separate Classroom Answers page; it covers class prompts and exam blocks. |
