I think, although I'm not sure, but a lot of people simply fast forward a ton of the dialogue on their second playthrough and only play out the stuff they missed or want to experience again.
It's more like a cleanup playthrough than a full one.

Oh, duh.
(ENDING SPOILERS):
That means my initial impression was correct: they did not steal Sae's treasure.

Yea, in ng+ you roll through. Dungeons take no time at all too.
aye. I mean to each its own, but yeah. Reminds me of the last few games I played, Horizon when I was about 20 hours in I was like "yeah I hope this lasts forever" but when I finished it at 50 hours I was just about ready to be done with it 10 hours previously. Same for Zelda, I finished it at 70 hours or so because I was just done with it, but back around 20.30 hours I was saying to myself "yeah im gonna play this for months".
So with P5 im not even going there, im loving it at 35 hours in or whatever im at, but I know for a fact that near the end I will be more than ready to move on to something else. I never understood people that imediatly restart games, especially long games, but like I said, to each its own.
Shit. Yeah, I guess you're right on that. Huh, never really put that bit together. I legit thought it was that handbook because one of the options when Sae asks what hers was is "Do you really want to know?" or something to that effect.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
But
we don't know when or how the other Thieves made it out of the palace. It was active when Joker left because his case was a fake, but the others could have made off with it after that.

I finished it yesterday. Killing time now until the change of heart.
Unless you mean 3rd area of Mementos. In which case, yes.

Joker: "Join my cause."
Shadow: "Whoa you're a smooth talker!"
Tells it like it is.

Really? I might just be retarded, I legit thought it was "Do you really want to know..." I'm already playing through NG+, if I'm right I'll call you out if I'm not I'll quietly pretend this didn't happen (I'll actually call myself out, I'm used to being wrong).
NG+ is for people that want everything out of the game, like a platinum trophy would.
I'm glad I got Futaba's navigation trophy. This means a second playthrough is enough to cover the things I probably missed.
I learned long ago I'm a weirdo. I love replaying games even if I have new games I haven't played. I immediately started NG+ once I saw the end to P5.
I didn't fucking get it and now I'm triggered because Risette's Fan Club trophy from P4G gives me (not really) nightmares. I hopefully will get it before finishing NG+.

First time took me around 90 hours, the second time has taken about 30 to get to November, because I'm playing on Safety and skipping all of the conversations and cutscenes (outside of the confidant stuff that I missed the first time around).
I'm flying through.
No, (ENDING SPOILERS):
The other Phantom Thieves explicitly state that they had to act completely normal in real life while Joker was held in captivity, so that alarm bells wouldn't be sprung for observers knowing that it was all part of their plan. So while they were out acting like normal teens, the Palace was still active so that the plan could happen at all. Palaces get destroyed when the treasure is stolen, so they couldn't have stolen it.

Wow, Probably the most important cutscene in the game and Atlus decides to leave half of it unsubbed :/

Palace 7 end
The boss was some Senator Armstrong shit and I loved every minute of it.
Especially when the lyrics kicked in.

True. It's not hard to surmise though, that in most cases except
Shiho, who straight up got forcibly attacked it seems,

Your homeroom teacher. The morality of this link is all over the place. You have dirt on her and she's in a compromising position.
You're also paying her. You seem to hold power over her, but she's your teacher and you're in a precarious position at school, she has that power over you. You don't out her to other people, but you continuously call her, but she needs you to call her because she doesn't get many customers. We're both pretty fucked up here, honestly.

Your doctor. Well, she's giving you these odd medicines that you keep taking for that dungeon crawling steroid discount. It's not really legal so you seem to have a little sway, but she's still a doctor, one who is treating/seeing you, and an adult woman
A journalist. I haven't started this link, but does she catch wind that you're a phantom thief? Because that's all you really need right there
It gets even better if you combine it with Tower.
Stuff you can do:
Down an enemy
Persuade
"This is taking too long"
Fires gun
Wins over high level persona
It also works with money/items, although there's still the risk factor.
Nanomachines, son.
What's this trophy? If it's not story spoilers, is it hard to get?
I really didn't want you to confirm I'm stupid. I knew it, everyone else knew it.
y Flux.
Hear 250(?) of Futaba's navigation lines.
Ohhhhhh! So That's what it means when it says something can transmute!
Yeah, I was wondering why that gear was so terrible...
Yep! I loved it.
Did you find the dagger and get totally confused like I did?
NOOOOO, I never got the Rise trophy....
There are a couple of anime cutscenes in the game where the screen lingers on probably important Japanese text which had no subtitles. Pretty bad.
And by the time things cooled down enough to consider stealing it, Sae had already repented willingly and turned to their side. Her palace had probably already disintegrated by the time the group started to tackle the cruise liner and Shido.

Oh shoot, you're right. The whole plan hinges on it still being there. I guess her treasure wasn't stolen after all.
Ok, guess I know what I'm doing in the next Palace. Rotate the shit outta my party lol

Yeah not to mention they never sub any of the newscasters for some reason.
I straight up had a FAQ, copied it to a document and deleted lines from it as I got them. That trophy was the worst.
So lucky, they get to go to school on Saturdays.
What is the map like in this game? Is it open world like FFXV, Witcher, etc? Can you run around doing whatever you want, side quests, fights, and collecting items? Or is it compartmentalized in some way? Having to unlock certain pathways and areas as you progress? It's hard to get a sense of the map type watching the streams.

Is there a job that lets you increase knowledge? I've never had a Persona protagonist this dumb so far in (June)
Not open world. Compartmentalized. The latter as you mentioned.

And switch your team around a lot. I got it without too much effort, but it didn't pop until very near the end of the game.

Forgot about that glaring part >_>
Yeah I was surprised at how easy this one was to get
That's just a persona thing. Gotta wait until their chapter is over.
