Rundown: rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

Short answer: I personally think he would lean more towards his pleasant persona, but ultimately be less concerned about hiding his cynicism or playing nice with people he dislikes.

Longer answer: You could go with either option, but it depends entirely on the jamjar setting he's in. He is very rude and aggressive in the 3rd semester because he's furious about having his autonomy violated and his choices invalidated. So in an environment where a distinct entity (like a god, supercomputer, mysterious organization or any of the other typical jamjar powers that be) brought him back to life he'd likely be feeling a similar level of contempt for the situation. On the flip side, you could easily play him as being calmer and more willing to meet people halfway in a game where whatever brings him back to life is a natural force with no consciousness guiding it.

Regardless, I wouldn't lean too hard into him being an asshole. Even during the 3rd semester he has moments where he's more pleasant to be around (e.g.: he's somewhat considerate of Yoshizawa's inexperience and has a few Mementos conversations where he's borderline nice to the rest of the party) so it's not like he's incapable or unwilling to be at least sort of nice even when there's no direct benefit to him.

My best advice is to pick whatever post-Shido motivation you think makes the most sense for him (would he drift aimlessly because he has no goal? Try to start over with the new perspective he gained from Akira? Refuse to change out of spite for whatever brought him back this time?) and build from that. So as long as you don't go all the way with either 'broken sad woobie who just wants to be loved' or 'remorseless asshole that hates everything and everyone', there's a lot of valid takes on him. Consistency is more important than anything else.
