Kaneshiro's bank is the third palace dungeon of Persona 5. Junya Kaneshiro may look like a successful financier, but the gang intends to make this cheat confess his awful scams that target minors. You'll encounter Shadow Kaneshiro once the party arrives at the central vault within Kaneshiro's Bank.
As you make your way into the depths of Kaneshiro's Bank, you'll encounter vaults that will require the right PIN codes. There are clues lying around the Palace, but if you don't have the patience to sweep the area, the first PIN code is 0102 (RICH), the second is 0931 (REAP) and the third is 2317 (HUGE). After taking down a mini-boss and find yourself facing the final vault, the last PIN code is 1841.

Kaneshiro’s Palace is the third main dungeon you’ll go through in Persona 5. Near the end of the dungeon, you’ll be tasked with unlocking all the vaults by keying in the right PIN codes. There are various hints scattered around the area, which should give you an idea of how to get the PIN number. However, if you’re having trouble with this part of the game, we’re here to help you out.
The very first PIN code (RICH) is 0102. The second PIN code (REAP) is 0931. The third PIN code (HUGE) is 2319. After that, head back to the main room and defeat the sub-boss. At the panel behind the boss, press the right button, then press the left button. Head to the inner ring and press the button on the panel, then return to the previous ring. Press the button on the panel again. Now, you’ll have access to the final vault. The final PIN code is 1841.
Kaneshiro's first form is a fruit fly and its a relatively straightforward battle. Kaneshiro is weak against Curse attacks, but a rush of melees will also get the job done. Be careful of Kaneshiro's fear poison and get ready to help your friends snap out of it when they're inflicted.
Once Kaneshiro's has had enough, he'll call out for his piggy bank fighting mech, the Piggytron. Not only is it an enormous metal orb with four rockets for legs, but the Piggytron also has several attacks including Ocular Vulcan, which focuses one target at a time, a kinetic attack called Metabolic Wave that targets the entire party, and finally a spinning Super VIP Form that charges for an ultimate spinning attack known as March of Piggy.
To make matters more difficult, Piggytron does not have any weaknesses, so have your party wear it down with some more melees. Make sure you have a lot of health equips to keep the team's HP up.
Eventually, Kaneshiro will exit Piggytron to taunt at the party while Piggytron is charging for a spin attack. Use this opportunity to attack Kaneshiro so that he will fall in front of Piggytron and get hit by his own attack.
Kaneshiro will scramble back into his Piggytron and turn it around, letting out another Fear Gas attack. You could counter the Fear Gas with Amrita Shower. Morgana will also recommend to find a way to use Kaneshiro's greed against himself by distracting him with something shiny, but you can also continue dealing direct attacks if you can.
Once Kaneshiro is defeated, he also reveals there's a mysterious figure who is taking advantage of the power of the Palaces – a criminal who is using other people's palace in order to accomplish his own agenda. Finally, run out of the collapsing Palace with the treasure!
