Here's the thing about Akechi (Speculation/Spilers) I believe he will be the "traitor" talked about. Not only does he become a party member late but does so for the palace where you get caught. Not to mention his S Link is automatic which is different than the other party members. Kinda like the Adachi problem where since Adachi didn't have an SLink in the original version of 4 he stood out more. ---
