The official Persona 5 manga anthology, “Persona 5: Comic À La Carte,” was originally released in Japan in April 2017. With 132 pages of comedic interpretations featuring the Phantom Thieves and their daily lives, the comics anthology included several guest artists.
Recently, a listing for an English release of the book has gone up on Amazon, published by Udon for a June 6, 2023 release date. The official description is as follows:
It’s an official manga anthology of PERSONA 5 short stories and comic strips!
A dangerous shopping date! The suffering of a back alley doctor! The Phantom Thieves’ Cooking Corner! Over a dozen artists dive into the daily lives of Joker, Futaba, Ryuji, and the rest of the Phantom Thieves of Hearts.

Recently, listings for the English release of the Persona 4 Arena and Persona 4 Arena Ultimax official manga adaptations had been uncovered. An official announcement from Udon Entertainment had been made with a tweet two days later, and subsequently deleted.
An English release of Persona 5: Comic À La Carte had been mistakenly announced in July 2019 by publisher Yen Press. An English release for Persona 5: Mementos Mission had been falsely announced simultaneously, but was officially picked up and released by Udon in December 2021.
