Persona 2 (Video Game)	comment	Persona 2 is a duology of games released in 1999-2000 as an Urban Fantasy spinoff of the popular JRPG franchise Shin Megami Tensei. It is the second title in the Persona spinoff series developed by Atlus, and takes place approximately three years after the first Persona.Innocent Sin (Tsumi) stars loner tough-guy Tatsuya Suou, a Japanese high school student from Sumaru City. A popular rumor going around the city states that if you dial your own cellphone number, a mysterious man named "Joker" will appear before you and grant you whatever you wish. When Tatsuya and his friends investigate, Joker appears and marks them for death, accusing them of committing a crime against him which they can't remember. As the Joker Charm runs out of control and rumors start to become reality, Tatsuya and his friends must uncover the mystery of "The Masked Circle" and stop Joker before it's too late.Eternal Punishment (Batsu) stars intrepid pollyanna Maya Amano, a Japanese journalist from Sumaru City. A popular rumor going around the city states that if you dial your own cellphone number, a mysterious man named "JOKER" will appear before you and murder whoever you wish. When Maya and her friends investigate, JOKER appears and marks her for death, accusing her of committing a crime against him which she can't remember. As the Joker Curse runs out of control and rumors start to become reality, Maya and her friends must uncover the mystery of "The Other Side" and stop JOKER before it's too — wait a second... Haven't we done this before?Persona 2 straddles a fence between the previous title and sequels to follow. The grid-based battles are thrown out, along with the moon phase calendar (which made a comeback in Persona 3). The Contact system, however, has been greatly overhauled: In addition to negotiating with demons in their own quirky style, selecting two or more characters* even if they're KO'd (in Eternal Punishment), though they obviously can't initiate. Instead, a character may say their dues or some form of insult on said fallen character. will yield a new contact based on their relationship, which changes over time. Though mainly a source of comedy in 2, the concept of relationships affecting gameplay would take center stage with Persona 3's Social Links. Summoning works much the same way, with "Fusion Spells" enabling two or more Personas to unleash Combined Energy Attacks. Also new are "contracts": when you make an enemy happy, they make a guarantee that they won't hurt you, and may also fork over items to keep you alive.Though the PlayStation version of Innocent Sin never left Japan, Eternal Punishment was localized and released in North America in 2000. While it isn't necessary to play the first to understand the second, much of the fun of the second comes in spotting the changes between the two continuities. Atlus initially announced no plans in localizing Innocent Sin into English and later elaborated they had planned to release it, but were prevented from doing so; depending on who you ask, the game was either Christmas Rushed or canceled outright due to content issues. A fan translation of this version was released in 2008. Atlus later stated they were aware of the fan translation, but chose to not interfere with it.Innocent Sin was remade for the PlayStation Portable with widescreen support, new art, enhanced demon negotiations, and the option to pick between the original soundtrack and a remastered version. It also slightly censored the more overt Nazi imagery at the end of the game. This version of the game was released in North America in September of 2011 and in Europe in November 2011, published by Ghostlight. It was confirmed that Eternal Punishment would also be remade and was released in May 2012 with an extra scenario, but alas, it was not released outside of Japan. Thankfully, the original PlayStation version was re-released around the same time on PlayStation Network, available in all regions. The original localization was later significantly polished by a fan group to be more consistent with current Atlus localization practices, including removing the Revelationsismsnote while the original Eternal Punishment was far more faithful to the Japanese version than Revelations: Persona was, it was forced to retain Dub Name Changes and other altered terminology originating from Revelations for consistency's sake and altering Innocent Sin flashbacks to reflect the PSP script, and ported to the PSP remake alongside a fan translation of the extra scenario. To avoid players having to play the Japanese version of Innocent Sin for the Old Save Bonus, this patch allows the player to choose their save from either the US or EU version, depending on the ROM's region or, in the case of hacked PSPs and PS Vitas with the official PS Store release installed, your PS Store region; the region choice is done through the options menu, and defaults to US.There's a tie-in manga called Persona 2: Tsumi to Batsu, which was only released in Japan and in France/French-speaking countries and territories. An updated version has a gaiden story epilogue which ties the story in with the rest of the Persona verse.Tropes:

The owner of the Ramen Shiraishi restaurant is modeled after Megumi Shiraishi, one of the illustrators, art overseers and colorist for some of Kaneko's art. Lastly, the Demon Artist is modeled on Megami Tensei series artist Kazuma Kaneko (pre-haircut).

He drops this attitude shortly after Tatsuya joins. Eikichi also falls under this trope as he expresses disbelief towards rumours becoming reality even though he has been a Persona user for a number of years. He gets over it after the first dungeon.

In the only ending, the heroes lose without really having accomplished much of anything, the world is destroyed, one of their number dies, and the only way they can squeak out anything resembling a happy ending is cutting a deal with Philemon that undoes everything that happened, both good and ill. In fact, the plot of Eternal Punishment is kickstarted when Innocent Sin's protagonist fails to forget what really happened, giving Nyarlathotep an opening to enact his Evil Plan once more.

It's the first of several signs that something is very wrong with her, though it's surprisingly easy to miss at first but for a subtle feeling of wrongness about her appearance. The rest of the Shadow Selves also have their sprites altered the same way. In Eternal Punishment, everyone possessed by the Joker literally loses all their facial features except for that grin and their skin becomes completely white.

Persona 2 (Video Game) / int_1cc9f5e5	comment	Tatsuya Sudou keeps his Fire affinity in both games. However, he plays differently each time. In IS, he's a straightforward fire user who fights alone against your party. In EP, he suddenly becomes a Flunky Boss with minions that deal damage and ailments, while he comes with a new Persona (which also deals ailments), and Old Maid to turn your party against each other. In Tatsuya's Scenario from the Updated Re-release of EP, he's fought as a Duel Boss and Mirror Boss rolled into one (the player character is also a fire user). This time, he's dubbed as "Drunk Tatsuya Sudou", and while he still deals ailments, he lacks Old Maid (it's useless against one person alone) and has a copy of your character's Signature Move.

Persona 2 (Video Game) / int_20c6638f	comment	Easing into the Adventure: In both games, the Player Character can't continue until you've talked to certain NPCs. Innocent Sin opens with Tatsuya staring down bullies, getting lectured by his teacher, and visiting Eikichi's garage band. In Eternal Punishment, Maya can't leave the office until you've talked to everybody. She spends the rest of the prologue interviewing teachers at Seven Sisters about the JOKER killings. Averted in regards to the Persona series at large, as instead of the plot slowly building up over the course of a few months (3, 4, and 5) or leaving you with an open window for exploration (1), you end up fighting demons and chasing the villains in less than one gameplay hour.

Both the good guys and the bad guys utilize this in story and in gameplay (in Eternal Punishment, for example, if you piss off a demon while equipped with an ultimate weapon, they will spread a rumor that greatly weakens it). Later in the games, Lisa (IS) and Ulala (EP) laments not being able to tell what's real anymore. Played for Laughs in side material, namely the anthology manga.

Persona 2 (Video Game) / int_2534ee67	comment	In Medias Res: To people familiar with other games of the franchise, it can sure seem like we're starting in the middle of things in Innocent Sin; how come there's no super-extended scene of actually being granted Personas and everyone just seems to have 'em already? Turns out this is a very important plot point, and had people not pushed certain events out of their minds this whole mess would never have happened. America had this worse for a while since Innocent Sin was only released in Japan, making Eternal Punishment harder to follow. Fortunately Innocent Sin was finally released on the PSP in the U.S. Debatable. One of the plot points of Eternal Punishment is finding out who Déjà Vu boy is; and that mystery, while crucial to the characters is lost on the player IF they played Innocent Sin. Fortunately for Americans, the Mt.Iwato flashback scenes do give the player enough of a gist to understand the plot of the past game.

The effect is sadly lost in the English localization for Eternal Punishment; there, they say she "talks like a ninja" but this doesn't really come across in text. Both the fan and official translations of Innocent Sin retains the effect far better by giving her speech a Shakespeare-ish dialogue range, which give the impression she is trying overly hard to be formal, which, given the limitations of the English language, is a fair analogue to the original.

Persona 2 (Video Game) / int_2772805d	type	Varying Tactics Boss
Persona 2 (Video Game) / int_2772805d	comment	Varying Tactics Boss: P2 mixes this trope with Legacy Boss Battle; between Innocent Sin, Eternal Punishment, and the prequel Persona, several bosses completely change tactics. Tatsuya Sudou keeps his Fire affinity in both games. However, he plays differently each time. In IS, he's a straightforward fire user who fights alone against your party. In EP, he suddenly becomes a Flunky Boss with minions that deal damage and ailments, while he comes with a new Persona (which also deals ailments), and Old Maid to turn your party against each other. In Tatsuya's Scenario from the Updated Re-release of EP, he's fought as a Duel Boss and Mirror Boss rolled into one (the player character is also a fire user). This time, he's dubbed as "Drunk Tatsuya Sudou", and while he still deals ailments, he lacks Old Maid (it's useless against one person alone) and has a copy of your character's Signature Move. Ginji Sasaki is an Earth user in both games and he can heal... and that's where the similarity ends. In IS, he's fought alone, deals ailments and has a hand-canon of a gun. In EP, he loses the gun, becomes a Flunky Boss, and takes advantage of his minions' Suicide Attack to damage your party and deal ailments, while he keeps reviving them. And he also has Old Maid. Shadow Maya. In IS, she is fought alone, and she starts the fight by dealing unblockable damage to the whole party (except for the real Maya, who joins the fight right afterwards). She is using Reverse Maia, which means Water and Ice attacks, two different One-Hit Kill attacks that she loves to spam, and Poisons. In EP, she becomes a Dual Boss teaming up with Shadow Baofu, and uses Reverse Artemis instead. She's now weak to all physicals but deflects all magic, ditches the one-hit-kill moves and previous ailments for dealing a ton of damage and freezing, and she can heal too. And of course, you have to worry about her partner too, who is a very nasty customer himself. Takahisa Kandori sure knows how to mix things up. In Persona 1, he has fought alone, has a Weaksauce Weakness to guns, a fire attack, a darkness attack, a couple of sword attacks, and a trick that prevents you from healing. He then enters a second phase when he gets taken over by his own Persona... but there's a further explanation for that below. In EP, he is a completely different story. He got rid of all his weaknesses and previous moves, and now he's fought as a Flunky Boss. He ditches his sword attacks for ranged ones, teams up with the Wolf Pack Boss that you fought just before him (four Anti-Magic Mini Mechas), resists everything, has several new attacks including a few that are only shared by the Final Boss (in this game), and can heal himself. In Tatsuya's Scenario, he is fought as a Duel Boss. Dubbed "Playful Takahisa Kandori" (meaning that he's screwing with you), he now reflects Nuclear, rendering half your moves useless, while still resisting everything else, and he has some other moves that he shares with the Final Boss, which are designed to keep you from using your skills. The Big Bad Nyarlathotep is said to have a thousand faces for a reason. Each time he's fought, he doesn't have a single move in common with the previous ones. Technically, the first time he is fought is in Persona 1, when he possesses Kandori above for phase 2 of the fight. He keeps the weaknesses of phase 1, but now he looks like a hipster Bhuda except it's Body Horror and loses all his previous skills. Now he's dealing powerful Light 'em Up attacks, as well as ailments. He pulls this stunt again in IS with Joker, but this time he ditches the ailments and goes for persistent damage that you cannot defend against. And he has no weaknesses, unlike above. The first time you fight him for real, he's the Final Boss of IS. In phase 1, he's disguised as Adolf Hitler and has several German and Christian-themed attacks that protect him, seal away abilities and deal ailments. In phase 2, he's a Wolf Pack Boss of the Cognizant Limbs kind: his five different parts all have separate skills, elemental affinities and HP pools. He also deals ailments targeted to specific party members, and can damage your SP instead of HP. In EP, he comes back as the Final Boss, and this time ditches the weird disguises. In phase 1, depending on player choices, he gets several attacks that will half your HP and/or instantly kill you whether you want it or not, and even has a move that deals twice the damage if you're defending. In phase 2, he starts dealing ailments, still deals enormous damage, and has an ability that negates all healing, buffs and shields. Have fun. Subverted in Tatsuya's Scenario, where he's fought as the final boss. While you have a party this time - unlike the other fights from that scenario listed here - and he comes at you with another form, he's a mix of phase 1 and 2 above. The difference is that this time, he reflects Armageddon, so you can't one-shot him on New Game Plus.

Both Maya and Jun lost their fathers when they were children; The former was a war correspondent who was killed in action, inspiring Maya to pursue a journalism career. Jun's dad met a mysterious (though no less grisly) demise when he tumbled into the gears of Seven Sisters' clock tower. Father problems are so prevalent in Innocent Sin that Nyarlathotep's second form in the final battle of that game is a monstrous amalgamation of all five protagonist's fathers, headed by Jun's, as Kashihara was one of Nyarlathotep's two main disguises.

Persona 2 (Video Game) / int_2de495bb	comment	Missing Child: The backstory for The Masked Circle, aka Innocent Sin's protagonists is full of this. One day, the children don't come home on time. Then it turns out they were attacked by a serial arsonist. It gets worse from there. Katsuya gets hit with this when his younger brother Tatsuya doesn't come home for days. No one knows where he is, and it becomes clear that he's involved with something big and keeps on refusing help. It's pretty clear that he's involved with something bad that he's trying to shoulder on his own. And when he finally tells Katsuya what's going on, he starts with, "I'm not your little brother." Tatsuya remembered the timeline of Innocent Sin, where he couldn't save the world. By hitting the Reset Button, the world of Eternal Punishment was created. The price was the memories of the real Masked Circle being friends, and one of them remembering the old timeline would shake the foundations of the new timeline. Tatsuya couldn't let his friends go, and remembered them when it would destroy the world. The whole time, he was trying to prevent the end of the world, knowing that it was his fault. He couldn't tell anyone without risking the timelines merging again.

The equivalent of the Abandoned Factory is Kasugayama High School and the bomb shelter underneath, which was a storyline dungeon in IS. Later in the game, the Giga Macho music store and Mu Continent (both of which were also storyline dungeons in IS) open up when you spread a rumor about rare demons lurking there. Finally, there is the EX Dungeon, available via New Game Plus. The PSP remake of the game adds Kadasu Mandala in the list, as part of Tatsuya's Scenario.

Persona 2 (Video Game) / int_4571c045	comment	Zodiac Motifs: The game runs on Western Zodiac symbolism, but it's most prominent with the Masked Circle. The four highest executives — other than their leader Joker — are called King Leo, Queen Aquarius, Lady Scorpio and Prince Taurus. Other than Queen Aquarius who is The Unfought, they all have Elemental Powers based on their Zodiac signs — for example, King Leo has fire powers. Later it's revealed that Joker specifically created this team as counterparts to the protagonists, who they themselves belong to those four Zodiac signs and have the same elemental powers, as they are his old friend group (he himself is Aquarius). In addition, these four are the fixed Zodiac signs, which comes into play to fulfill the Prophecy of Maya.

The reason he does this is that he is dying from an unspecified malady, and the leader of NWO Tatsuzou Sudou has promised to make him immortal. He keeps that promise... by turning him into an unkillable monster with Body Horror in spades.

His malice lingers on as a mummy but, like the Fuhrer, he's just a sock puppet for larger evil. The rumor that Sumaru's become a font of occult power is true as long as the NWO believes it is true; supposedly this is why their most skeptical member, the Police Chief, is the only one who can't hear him speak.

Persona 2 (Video Game) / int_4b316d47	comment	Break the Cutie: Every single character hits this in both games at least twice (most of the end in Innocent Sin is Jun demonstrating this, and if you make the wrong choice in Caracol, Yukino's the second-best example), but Lisa in Eternal Punishment is likely the most powerful, drastic example. In Innocent Sin, she's spunky, happy, able to kick ass, and is almost comically over-the-top in her pursuit of Tatsuya. If you wake her up in Eternal Punishment, however, she starts sobbing uncontrollably against Tatsuya's shoulders, asking him to take her along so she can help to make up for what she forgot. What possibly puts this above the other break-the-cutie moments in both games is that she promised not to let her feelings get in the way. She says that she won't bother Tatsuya and the others again, which, if you know Lisa's character arc in the last game is just... absolutely heartbreaking. This depression continues, too, at the end of the game (if you continue that route). She sobs on the shrine steps, and Eikichi (if you don't wake him) and Jun both approach her, trying to cheer her up because it's just so painful.

Persona 2 (Video Game) / int_4dbd3706	comment	Clap Your Hands If You Believe: The rumor curse. The assorted members of the NWO actually do clap during the ritual. This has all sorts of funky effects on the city. Holistic healing now suddenly has tangible results, i.e., chiropractors and hippie crystal therapy can cure poison and broken bones instantly. Not only is it tangible, it is retroactive, meaning that if a rumor has spread, it does not simply become true; rather, it always has been true. Thus, when you spread the rumor that the ramen shop owner is an ex-KGB agent who sells weapons under the table, her entire life is rewritten to fall in line with the rumor. Scale is irrelevant, too. Once enough people believe that Mayans were aliens and the Grand Cross will summon an ancient temple, well... you can do the math.

Persona 2 (Video Game) / int_4f4372e9	comment	Early-Installment Weirdness: Not as drastically as Persona, as many aspects of this game would be used again in later games, drastically different as they are. That being said, there are still some odd kinks: This game is the only Persona game that lacks a moon phase/weather phase system of any kind. 1 and 3 had moon phases (albeit in accelerated form in 1) and 4 and 5 had the weather affect gameplay instead. Both this game and 1 allowed you to stack your buffs indefinitely, which also holds true for Shin Megami Tensei I, Shin Megami Tensei II, and other older spinoffs. However, having buffs target your whole party required performing a fusion spell that required two party members to perform. 1 had them target everyone by default, while 3 onward had single and multi-target variations. Fusion spells arguably act as the predecessor of the All-Out Attack, except there are multiple spells with myriads of effects. This is the only game across the entire franchise to have water magic. This is the only game with no additional party members. You get up to five total; there's an automatic change in your fifth slot 2/3rds of the way through Innocent Sin (Yukino to Jun), while Eternal Punishment allows you to pick one of two (Kei or Eriko) for your fifth slot initially, and then they leave once Tatsuya decides to join you. This is the only main series game to build off the plot of the previous game and have its cast return in major roles. Persona 3 onward would only have Igor and Tanaka as recurring characters, with Tanaka being a bit character in Persona 4 and Persona 5.

The Oracle of Maya and the "Nyarl..." inscription in Tatsuya Sudou's cell. The JOKER calls Anna Yoshizaka "Lady" and later tells Jun to become their leader again, refering to the Masked Circle. During the sky museum, instead of the demons telling you rumours, they reveal that they once received orders from Jun. After the museum burns, a police officer reveals that he saw it happening in a dream and wonder if it was prophetic, but then he takes it back because if that were the case, then the police station would have also burned. Ulala asking Maya if she and Tatsuya had ever been on wanted lists. A few NPCs mention Xibalba and the "In'Lachekh".

However, Eternal Punishment, despite how heavy a story it usually is, also states optimistic messages about life's regrets in that it may indeed not be too late to find your way, or that even if you don't get to do what you want to do, you're not a failure, and you can keep trying to find something that works for you. Another major theme is the relationship between memory and identity, which is especially prominent in Innocent Sin.

Persona 2 (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8	comment	Guide Dang It!: The Ancestral Personas. In Eternal Punishment, they form the basis for a game-spanning Sidequest. Even meeting the requirements isn't enough, since you still need a FOOL card to summon the last Persona, and could scour the entire game without uncovering even one. All this to insta-kill a boss which isn't even difficult to begin with. Just getting a FOOL card is a chore, as it requires you to use a contact that elicits an eager response with demons who have a Fool personality, and then answer it's questions to swing back between an anger and an eager response three times in a row, and even then, it's a matter of luck on whether it asks the full series of question that will allow you to get the card at all. It takes an emulator and save-states just to make that a colossal pain in the ass. Hastur is an über-powerful, one-of-a-kind Persona whose card you can collect early in the game (Not that it'll do much good, as you need to be at a very high level to summon it), for free. The catch? Doing so requires talking to a specific NPC and imputing "HASTURCOMEFORTH" into a text prompt. Supposedly, a demon somewhere shares this information if you Contact it, but nobody has any clue which one; it appears in no FAQs or guides. The Undersea Ruins treasure room. To reach the chests, you must Contact the Random Encounter Aeshma for help. Naturally, Aeshma is often difficult to pin down, and she won't unlock the room until you've Contacted her a dozen times or more. So get cracking, monkey. One final way to twist the knife; you can also find and talk to her...only to give you the rumor of a fusion spell ingredient rather than what you want to know. Bonus contacts and conversations in Eternal Punishment such as 100 stories, songs of a baseball fan, flamenco de la passion, etc. Only available by speaking to your party members at a specific time and place while on the world map or in a dungeon (for 100 stories). Missed the timing to grab it? New Game+. Figuring out how to get Alice in Eternal Punishment. First, you need a Karma Ring, which means that you either got lucky in the sweepstakes or you returned a Junnosuke Kuroda persona (4 FOOL Cards). Then, you run around the 8th area in the Bomb Shelter. Unfortunately for you, this time around, the Estoma trick is highly ill-advised. The reason why is because unlike other Persona Demons, you need to make a contract (lvl 80, btw) with her (something you've never been able to do before with Persona demons). THEN, you need to meet her again and then the second time around, you get the Champion material card. This presumes you don't run into Dark Alice, a monster three highly damaging spells that just wants you dead. Also a bit of an Awesome, yet Impractical; because when you get her, her skillset is VERY poorly lacking despite being Strong against Everything. In the EX Dungeon of Persona 2: Eternal Punishment, exists a powerful Hanged Man Persona named Azazel. He's nasty and packs an amazing sword technique. How do you get him? You need three additional Hanged Man Arcana persona to initiate a persona talk with him: Shax, Barbados, and Adramelech. Each of them must initiate a persona talk with him. The only potential clue you get is that as Azazel is a demon of hell, you use three members each having roles in Hell's hierarchy to get him to join you. That's if you're able to last long enough in the EX dungeon (which is tough as nails, btw) to even meet him.

Gets taken further up when one discovers that her father's job, in a point of irony, involves international trading, and it's implied that he himself can speak English whereas he never taught it to Lisa at all.

Persona 2 (Video Game) / int_77824082	comment	Healing Boss: The very first boss you fight is a trio of Early-Bird Cameo Mooks, of which one can heal its teammates. The boss is meant to teach you how to strategize and use fusion spells, as the only way not to have the fight draw out (excluding grinding yourself silly) is to use a fusion spell on the healer. One of the members of "The Metal Trio" can heal itself or any of its allies at any moment, though the value is not very high. Was Sugawara recovers over 700 HP at the end of each turn with absolutely no way to stop his recovery, which is a problem because he's a Damage Sponge and he has ways to stop you from using attacks that can top that number. Shadow Maya uses an Evil counterpart of Maya's Persona, which comes with Diarama, the mid-tier healing skill. In the PSP-exclusive "Tatsuya Scenario", Takahisa Kandori can recover his health too, which can quickly turn into a huge issue because he is a Duel Boss and the only equipped Persona simply cannot to that much damage. Pray he won't spam it because YOU don't have healing for that fight.

Persona 2 (Video Game) / int_851dda8f	comment	Humanoid Abomination: Nyarlathotep whenever he assumes human form. The Shadow Sides qualify, as well. The Nazis are never seen without their gas masks, and are covered from head to toe in black uniforms. Given their origin (a rumor) and the fact that the Fuhrer turns out to be another of Nyarlathotep's alter-egos, it's strongly implied that they're all just manifestations. In Eternal Punishment Kandori seems to be filling this role. Part and parcel of his role is to simply give Tatsuya a glorified calling card.

It is not made clear if this means the Sea of Souls and its contents exist outside the flow of time itself akin to Akashic Records, or if the fact humans believed demons had existed so long ago (for one, creation deities would logically exist prior to the world) gave demons distortions in their cognitive perceptions of time, such as the backward telescoping effect (perceiving events as occurring even further back in time than they really do). In other words, this trope is either played straight or subverted depending on interpretation.

Persona 2 (Video Game) / int_8e7467e	comment	The Psycho Rangers: Joker deploys evil clones of your party members after the Nazis invade. They were given full form thanks to a rumor about the group of five that set fire to the Museum. This is wryly suggested in the Masked Four's origin story, since they're essentially stand-ins for the original Masked Circle—Jun's old friends. It was foreshadowed by the obvious connections to Tatsuya's party. Though there are multiple ways of interpreting it: Leo/Sudou's and Suou's names are almost identical (though spelled differently in Japanese), and both are Fire elementals with an affinity for the Leo sign on the Zodiac and the Sun arcana. Aquarius/Junko is of the Aquarius zodiac sign, and has a very similar name to Jun, whom she functions as a "mother figure" to, quite like Maya, though more literally in her case. Alternatively, she is a fair approximation of how Lisa might end up: a former Miss Sevens now stuck in the past, discarding her trophy husband once the novelty wore off. Scorpio/Anna shares her zodiac sign with Eikichi, as well as their names being spelled almost identically in Japanese (吉栄=Yoshizaka; 栄吉=Eikichi). In addition to being a schoolgirl like Lisa, she's the Broken Bird of the outfit, an introvert whose painful past is used for villainous ends (Jun). Taurus/Ginji shares his zodiac sign with Lisa, and their names both have silver/gin (silver in Japanese) in them. He's also a failed musician with bad pick-up lines, and so can be seen as an older Eikichi.

Then he gets news that a classmate has been kidnapped (it turned out to be innocent, it was some guys from another school trying to recruit him in their rock band)... And that is when the Joker shows up and tries to kill everyone. Eternal Punishment starts in a very similar vein, following Maya at her work as a reporter for a teen magazine, but then while she's interviewing the students a serial killer appears and kills the Principal. Then he sets his sights on her. Long story short, she never turned in those interviews at her work.

Persona 2 (Video Game) / int_970c790a	comment	The Big Bad Nyarlathotep is said to have a thousand faces for a reason. Each time he's fought, he doesn't have a single move in common with the previous ones. Technically, the first time he is fought is in Persona 1, when he possesses Kandori above for phase 2 of the fight. He keeps the weaknesses of phase 1, but now he looks like a hipster Bhuda except it's Body Horror and loses all his previous skills. Now he's dealing powerful Light 'em Up attacks, as well as ailments. He pulls this stunt again in IS with Joker, but this time he ditches the ailments and goes for persistent damage that you cannot defend against. And he has no weaknesses, unlike above. The first time you fight him for real, he's the Final Boss of IS. In phase 1, he's disguised as Adolf Hitler and has several German and Christian-themed attacks that protect him, seal away abilities and deal ailments. In phase 2, he's a Wolf Pack Boss of the Cognizant Limbs kind: his five different parts all have separate skills, elemental affinities and HP pools. He also deals ailments targeted to specific party members, and can damage your SP instead of HP. In EP, he comes back as the Final Boss, and this time ditches the weird disguises. In phase 1, depending on player choices, he gets several attacks that will half your HP and/or instantly kill you whether you want it or not, and even has a move that deals twice the damage if you're defending. In phase 2, he starts dealing ailments, still deals enormous damage, and has an ability that negates all healing, buffs and shields. Have fun. Subverted in Tatsuya's Scenario, where he's fought as the final boss. While you have a party this time - unlike the other fights from that scenario listed here - and he comes at you with another form, he's a mix of phase 1 and 2 above. The difference is that this time, he reflects Armageddon, so you can't one-shot him on New Game Plus.

Persona 2 (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1	type	Foreshadowing
Persona 2 (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1	comment	This is wryly suggested in the Masked Four's origin story, since they're essentially stand-ins for the original Masked Circle—Jun's old friends. It was foreshadowed by the obvious connections to Tatsuya's party. Though there are multiple ways of interpreting it: Leo/Sudou's and Suou's names are almost identical (though spelled differently in Japanese), and both are Fire elementals with an affinity for the Leo sign on the Zodiac and the Sun arcana. Aquarius/Junko is of the Aquarius zodiac sign, and has a very similar name to Jun, whom she functions as a "mother figure" to, quite like Maya, though more literally in her case. Alternatively, she is a fair approximation of how Lisa might end up: a former Miss Sevens now stuck in the past, discarding her trophy husband once the novelty wore off. Scorpio/Anna shares her zodiac sign with Eikichi, as well as their names being spelled almost identically in Japanese (吉栄=Yoshizaka; 栄吉=Eikichi). In addition to being a schoolgirl like Lisa, she's the Broken Bird of the outfit, an introvert whose painful past is used for villainous ends (Jun). Taurus/Ginji shares his zodiac sign with Lisa, and their names both have silver/gin (silver in Japanese) in them. He's also a failed musician with bad pick-up lines, and so can be seen as an older Eikichi.

The whole thing is further elaborated in his scenario in the PSP remake, where the player finds out exactly what he's been fighting. Lampshaded by the main cast several times: Baofu himself killed 25 mafia hitmen prior to the events of the game, and halfway through he successfully storms their main headquarters all by himself. Right up until he runs to the Mini-Mecha, that is. Deconstructed by Katsuya, who attempts to do this against the Corrupt Cops, up until he comes face to face with the special units. The party reaches him in time to help him, but after the fight he admits that this was reckless of him and he wouldn't have been able to win by himself.

If you take her with you, when you reach the observation bridge you have to fight three Longinus Spear mechs. However, if you leave her behind, you find Shadow Yukino and Lady Scorpio fighting them, and you have to fight them once they're done. In Eternal Punishment, one third through the game you are asked to spread a rumor that the person investigating the New World Order is either a man or a woman. Spreading the rumour it's a woman results in Eriko's route, which takes you through the Sumaru TV station, and results in boss fights against her Stalker (actually a Shikigami), Wang Long Chizuru's puppet, and in the Underwater Ruins, Wang Long Chizuru herself. However, if you spread the rumor it's a man, you go to Nanjo's route, and the game takes you through the sewers and the secret laboratory, where you fight several Red Berret Mini-bosses, and Demonized Sugimoto. The Underwater Ruins boss is also replaced with Takahisa Kandori and four X-2 mechs.

Persona 2 (Video Game) / int_b06bbf4b	comment	Be Careful What You Wish For: The thrust of this particular Persona. Spurred on by rumours, the various NPCs throughout town start dialing the Joker to fulfill their deepest wishes. Cue the chaos. The businessman eating in Gatten Sushi hopes for a promotion; He becomes the head of his company thanks to Joker, whereas in the alternate Eternal Punishment universe, JOKER murders his boss, promoting him by default. In both games, the businessman is jubilant at his good fortune. However, the price is the eventual loss of his will (transformed into a Shadow in Innocent Sin, brainwashed by the NWO in Eternal Punishment), preventing him from fulfilling any of his dreams ever again. A similar scenario plays out with the other NPCs. This works from a gameplay standpoint, too. Some rumors have a 50-50 chance effect, which can either help or hinder your quest. For example, spreading a rumor about Parabellum hiring a bodyguard might result in the Bartender selling a powerful new gun... or he may just charge more for his old wares, using the bodyguard as an intimidation tactic. This is easily circumvented through reloading saves.

It's a lot bigger than Mikage-Cho—boasting a sanitarium, casino, television studio, and a glitzy waterfront—and evidently it's a major port: The stores are run by an eclectic group of merchants (a Sheik, a British tailor, a French legionnaire cum waiter, an Americophile doctor, an Italian grifter, a gypsy, etc.). Tatsuya/Maya also get to explore terrain outside of the city limits.

While there were subtle hints shown earlier, the cutscene after you complete the Taurus Temple reveals that Jun is gay and Tatsuya is bisexual. Tatsuya is asked to pick which of his friends he's interested on, and Jun is the Gay Option. If you choose that, Lisa is stunned and feels quite awkward to find out he swings that way. This has an effect in gameplay, as Jun and Tatsuya get a joint contact, and the Tatsuya/Lisa joint contact is lost for the rest of the game. No, the two options do not function the same way.

It's pretty clear that he's involved with something bad that he's trying to shoulder on his own. And when he finally tells Katsuya what's going on, he starts with, "I'm not your little brother." Tatsuya remembered the timeline of Innocent Sin, where he couldn't save the world. By hitting the Reset Button, the world of Eternal Punishment was created. The price was the memories of the real Masked Circle being friends, and one of them remembering the old timeline would shake the foundations of the new timeline. Tatsuya couldn't let his friends go, and remembered them when it would destroy the world. The whole time, he was trying to prevent the end of the world, knowing that it was his fault. He couldn't tell anyone without risking the timelines merging again.

This time, he's dubbed as "Drunk Tatsuya Sudou", and while he still deals ailments, he lacks Old Maid (it's useless against one person alone) and has a copy of your character's Signature Move.

Tatsuya is asked to pick which of his friends he's interested on, and Jun is the Gay Option. If you choose that, Lisa is stunned and feels quite awkward to find out he swings that way. This has an effect in gameplay, as Jun and Tatsuya get a joint contact, and the Tatsuya/Lisa joint contact is lost for the rest of the game. No, the two options do not function the same way.

Persona 2 (Video Game) / int_e545e190	comment	Nerf: A few broken things from Innocent Sin got nerfed in Eternal Punishment: The Low-End Breaker Fusion Spell (Zanma+any Holy spell) instantly kills the lowest-leveled enemy in IS, making it a cheap way to get rid of Rumor Demons and unique encounters. In EP, it now kills the lowest-leveled unit regardless of side, meaning that most of the time you end up killing your own characters with it. Summon Spirits in IS could fuse with any elemental spell to create pretty powerful Fusion Spells. In EP, Summon Spirits can now only do this with Rumor Spells, meaning you have to equip specific Personae to use them, and beforehand you have to spread the rumor that the spell exists, and a separate rumor that it can fuse with Summon Spirits. In IS, Lucifer and Satan can perform the ultimate Fusion Spell Armageddon which instantly obliterates even the final boss (even if it's a bit of a Bragging Rights Reward). In EP, this can't be done on your first playthrough as Satan is exclusive to Elly's route and Lucifer is exclusive to Nanjo's route, so you have to wait until your second playthrough or later to get both.

Most of the fights against the Longinus Spear mechs. They face you in groups of three, and each mech has different elemental affinities. The Bolontiku fight, as they're functioning as a Mirror Boss against your party. It's a five vs. five match. The Final Boss technically plays like this. While it's one entity, it has five different... parts that each has its own turn, skills, affinities and HP pool. Eternal Punishment: The very first boss in the game is a gang of an Empusa and two Apeps. At the end of Nichirinmaru, the squad has to fight three robots of the X-series. It would have been four, but fortunately Tatsuya was there to take care of that one. Wang Long Chizuru invokes this in her fights via Self-Duplication. Unfortunately for her, it plays more like a Flunky Boss since the clones are not perfect and there's a trick to eliminating them all at once. The infamous Metal Trio is a fight against golden statues of Lisa, Eikichi and Jun from the previous game.

In Eternal Punishment, the flashback scenes from Innocent Sin have Tatsuya talking; whereas Maya is silent... because in Eternal Punishment, Maya is the Silent Protagonist. And in Innocent Sin, during the fight with Shadow Maya, everyone except for one character will be at low HP because of an attack used on them multiple times before fighting. Also, in Innocent Sin, during the fight with Sugimoto, Eikichi can't hurt him at all with anything because of the curse's effects unless he partners up in a fusion spell with someone. In Innocent Sin, Yukino gives up her Persona ability to have Jun reawaken his after Nyarlathotep strips him of his Persona. Because of this, Jun can use Durga, Yukino's ultimate persona. In the end of Innocent Sin, everyone gets their pasts rewritten at the end so that that the adventure never happened, manifesting in Eternal Punishment as Bag of Spilling. Tatsuya retained his memory, however, so he starts off at Level 50 with his Ultimate Persona.

Persona 2 (Video Game) / int_f0e85546	comment	Unbuilt Trope: Innocent Sin debuted with many of the ideas that became synonymous with the series, but it also showed just how damning it would be for a group of mentally vulnerable and immature teenagers to be put in a fight against society, cosmic entities, and themselves with their only achievement being turning an already bad situation even worse, dancing to the tune of one of the participants of a Cosmic Chess Game all the way to the end.

This is how Maya first reacts to meeting Tatsuya, Eikichi's idea of flirting, how Lisa gets her Legendary Weapon. This is also the only contact option that Tatsuya keeps in Eternal Punishment. There is also a secondary running gag about how Eikichi is incapable of winning any sort of bet.

Good Old Fisticuffs: Lisa and Ulala. Gatling Good: Eikichi's concealed guitar case machine gun. Handguns: Maya's dual pink Handguns. Katsuya brandishes a police-issue pistol. Improbable Weapon User: Yukino lobs razors, a clue to her reformed punk past in the original Persona. Best example: Jun Kurosu fights with flowers. The other good example is Baofu, who throws coins at people. More improbable: There's a scene with Baofu flipping coins at a guy with two machine guns, and HE gets the better of him.

Most of the materials are either won at the casino or returning multiple Rank 8 persona to get the items. However, the pros significantly outweigh the cons. Take the Hihi-Irokane armor in Eternal Punishment for example. 67 defense, 50 special defense and a hell of a boost to evasion make the armor well worth hours at the casino.

Persona 2 (Video Game) / int_ffad4e9f	comment	Shown Their Work: More or less. Japanese tradition mentions the existence of kotodama (言霊) a concept in which words have impact on reality; by repeating often words such as "crisis" and "depression", for instance, one becomes a target for the feelings those words convey; relate this to the rumor-based alterations to reality. It's even mentioned in Eternal Punishment that Kandori and Lord Sumaru were brought back by the power of the Kotodama. The whole writing actually has this to ridiculous degrees, that it becomes Genius Bonus. Everything from Greek mythology to Mayan cosmology to obscure German poetry to Feng Sui and Japanese superstitions is all tied together in a big mass of foreshadowing.
