==Summary==
Junya Kaneshiro is the third major boss of Persona 5, and the Ruler of the Bank of Gluttony.
Born poor and with a predisposition to being overweight, Kaneshiro turned to a life of crime to escape society's prejudices against those like him, coming to believe that selflessness had no place in matters of money and power. He eventually became a disgustingly wealthy crime lord, with enough secrecy and power such that he became effectively untouchable by law enforcement. His overflowing obsession with accumulating and indulging in his wealth at any cost to anyone but himself eventually culminated in his own Palace.

Attack Potency: Universe level+ as Bael (Created his Palace, which encompasses the entirety of Shibuya in Japan), higher with Piggytron
Speed: Speed of Light Reactions and Combat Speed (Comparable to Ren Amamiya)
Lifting Strength: Class M
Striking Strength: Universe level+
Durability: Universe level+ as Bael, higher with Piggytron
Stamina: Unknown, should at least be comparable to the Phantom Thieves
Range: Standard Melee Range with melee, Kilometres with firearms and magic
Standard Equipment: His defensive mechanoid, Piggytron
Intelligence: At least Average, likely far higher (Despite having risen to his position as a crime lord and being the mastermind behind various successful crimes and sustained scams, he often refers to himself as an idiot. The truth of the extent of his intelligence is left vague)
Weaknesses: Due to representing Kaneshiro's obsessive greed, Bael is easily distracted by items of value. Unlike other Palace Rulers, his ability to summon Shadows is limited by his perceiving them as hired help, and thus limiting the number of times he can summon them by the amount of wealth he has left.
