It's very important to have regular, healthy bowel movements in real life. Normally, it's a little less important for characters in video games, Travis Touchdown exempted. But in Metaphor: ReFantazio, it turns out that using the bathroom regularly will make you more powerful, if you pay attention to when you're doing it.
Initially shared by @UltimaShadowX on X/Twitter, using the toilet in Metaphor can give you a permanent +1 boost to your character's luck if you do it on a certain day. That certain day is "Idlesday" on the in-game calendar, which comes around every fifth day. Every Idlesday, you can go to the bathroom on your Gauntlet Runner (effectively your home base throughout the game) and check the Toilet inside to use it. Doing so nets you the stat boost.
Unfortunately, you don't get anything for using the bathroom any other day of the week (though you're welcome to if you feel moved to do so). You can also get experience from using the shower, and apparently acquiring bath salts a bit later in the game will let you raise stats by taking a bath. Atlus really, really wants its players to embrace cleanliness!
There are a number of other things one can do on the Gauntlet Runner on a regular basis to improve themselves, some of which we've highlighted in our guide to unlocking the base.
It's no surprise that players are finding fun details like this in Metaphor: ReFantazio. It's an amazing game. We gave it a 9/10, saying that it "doesn’t just send a powerful message across its political drama, it becomes a beautiful expression of the real impact storytelling can have on all of us."

In Metaphor, if you take a shit in the Gauntlet Runner on a day divisible by 5, you get a free luck stat increase.
