Persona 3 is an Urban Fantasy Role-Playing Game, and the third numbered sequel in the Shin Megami Tensei JRPG franchise's Persona sub-series, developed by Atlus for the PlayStation 2 and later the PlayStation Portable. It released in Japan on July 13th, 2006, in North America on August 14th, 2007, and in Europe on February 29th, 2008.Every night when the clock strikes midnight, a phenomenon called "The Dark Hour" occurs. During this "hidden" hour of the day, a Colour-Coded Timestop occurs and normal humans are transmogrified into coffin-like objects, unaware of the world around them. What's more, evil creatures called Shadows appear to prey on the minds of humans, inflicting a zombie-like condition commonly known as Apathy Syndrome.You are a New Transfer Student moving to Tatsumi Port Island to attend Gekkoukan High School. Soon after settling into your new dormitory, you are discovered to have "the potential": the ability to remain as a human within the Dark Hour, and to fight the Shadows with a mysterious inner-power called "Persona". Recruited into the Specialized Extracurricular Execution Squad (SEES), a secret student society dedicated to fighting the Shadows, you now have to balance your school life, your social life and your new demon-hunting life.The game is split into two main sections: "Day" and "Dark Hour". During the "Day" sections, your main goal is to attend school and build up friendships with the people around you, known as "Social Links". As the strength of your Social Links increases, so do the power of the Personas that you can use in the "Dark Hour" section. When not attending school you can do other things like seeing movies, hanging out at the arcade or even getting a part-time job, which all increase your Academic, Charm and Courage stats so you can improve your Social Links further.The "Dark Hour" section is a dungeon-crawling RPG with random-generated dungeons and a turn-based battle system. Your main goal is to advance up the floors of Tartarus, a mysterious Evil Tower of Ominousness that only appears during the Dark Hour and seems to hold the key to the mystery of the Shadows. The battle system itself is called "1 More!", a stripped-down version of the Press Turn system from Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne and Digital Devil Saga. If you hit the elemental weakness of an enemy, you knock it down and are immediately awarded an additional action. Furthermore, knocking down all the enemies in the group allows you to perform an "All-Out Attack", which hits every enemy for major damage. However, the enemies are also awarded additional actions for knocking you down.An Updated Re-release, Persona 3 FES was released for the PlayStation 2 in Japan on April 19th, 2007, in North America on April 22th, 2008, and in Europe on October 17th, 2008. It includes an extremely difficult epilogue chapter called "The Answer," more Personas, additional story events in the game, and a Hard Mode. This version has since been rereleased on the Play Station Network as a PS2 Classic for PS3 only.Another Updated Re-release, Persona 3 Portable, was also released on the PlayStation Portable in Japan on November 1st, 2009, in North America on July 6th, 2010, and in Europe on April 28th, 2011. Alongside its Visual Novel-esque style, it also incorporates many of the gameplay improvements featured in Persona 4note such as the ability to Guard and directly control your party members, includes five difficulty levels (including the Harder Than Hard "Maniac" difficulty) and adds the option to choose a female protagonist, which provides a different take on the game's plot. It also includes a few Call Forwards to Persona 4, but lacks the epilogue chapter featured in FES. Portable was released digitally on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch on January 19, 2023. A physical release, courtesy of Limited Run Games, was released in late 2023.A Video Game Remake built on the Unreal Engine, Persona 3 Reload, was announced on June 11th, 2023 and released on February 2, 2024 for PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5. Although the game includes features and story elements from FES and Portable, it does not feature the Female Protagonist. The Answer will be added in September 2024 as DLC.

Secret A.I. Moves: In the endgame of The Answer, the shadow of the Protagonist will use your party's Personas against you, and he can use skills they don't normally learn. Also, when SEES splits up and fights each other, they can also use skills that they don't normally learn against you, such as Yukari and Mitsuru dropping Megidolaon on you.

Supernatural Gold Eyes
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_1186fcb5
comment
Supernatural Gold Eyes: Elizabeth and Theodore, who have only a nodding acquaintance with humanity. Their origins are never explained, but the use of golden eyes to mark someone's Shadow self in Persona 2 and Persona 4 has had some interesting implications. In a similar vein, Takaya, who isn't a Shadow or a supernatural entity himself, but has supernatural powers nonetheless. Persona 4 also demonstrated that people possessed by their own Shadows exhibit this trait, possibly implying the same about him. In the movie adaptation, Makoto briefly has his eyes turn gold after he summons his Ultimate Persona, Messiah.

Anyone Can Die
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_1237828f
comment
Anyone Can Die: Being that the game's theme is death, a lot of characters bite it over the course of the game. Shinjiro Aragaki, Shuji Ikutsuki, Takeharu Kirijo, Chidori Yoshino, Jin Shirato, Ryoji Mochizuki, and the protagonist all die by the end, Akinari Kamiki dies if you finish his Social Link, and it's also heavily implied Takaya Sakaki dies off-screen. If the correct things are done in FES and Portable, Chidori will come back to life (although the canonicity of this is ambiguous) and it's possible to save Shinji in P3P when playing as the female character.

comment
Yukari is infuriated when she has to dress up in a maid outfit for the Archery Club's Maid Cafe as part of Gekkoukan's culture festival, whilst various male students are overjoyed at the prospect of seeing her in the outfit - luckily for Yukari, the culture festival is cancelled when a tsunami hits. Later, a video recording (Pointedly dated after the festival was cancelled) can be found of Yukari happily wearing the outfit whilst in her room, suggesting that her protests were more because All Men Are Perverts than an actual dislike of the outfit.

The Artifact
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_13d7a65e
comment
The Artifact: In the original release, the main character could equip any kind of weapon, and your teammates would give you tips on the advantages and disadvantages of each. In Portable, the main character can only equip swords or naginata, but the advice on differing weapon types remains. Other changes to the weapon system also induces this on the Nihil equipment where ones based on the main characters' weapons are given the Void label instead in Portable, yet the Nihil Sword remains (with the same description text at that) instead of being renamed Nihil Rapier despite it clearly corresponding to said weapon type in this version. S. Link flavor text often gauges how well the main character behaves toward the correponding person and warns of jealousy risks if the male MC has romanced at least one girl. Both of these are still mentioned in Portable, where neglect countdown and jealousy penalty no longer apply.

Does This Remind You of Anything?
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_14ed6ab7
comment
Does This Remind You of Anything?: Several of the Persona designs have this in play, but it's difficult to see the Tower Arcana Persona called Mara as anything but a penis on wheels. If you have this Persona as your main when you visit the Velvet Room, Elizabeth even seems to comment on how masculine it seems... Theodore, on the other hand, does not approve, protesting that it isn't ladylike. The method of summoning Personas is more than a little troubling. They explain the Evoker by saying that the act of putting a gun to your head and pulling the trigger evokes a visceral mental trauma that causes your Persona to manifest itself. Of course, there's some Applied Phlebotinum crammed in there too. Persona users rarely ever smile, especially when summoning for the first time considering how painful or awkward it is. The Protagonist is a special case in many ways, especially when you consider that the creepy-as-hell expression on his face looks very similar to that of the Nyx Avatar, who is, of course, a form of Ryoji, who is Death, who manifests as Thanatos in that cutscene. The final social link event for Aigis in FES doesn't even try to be subtle about what touching her Papillon Heart is supposed to stand in for. For bonus points, the fact that she disables her arms and legs beforehand adds an additional, probably unintentionally creepy dimension to the encounter. The special function given to Aigis and her 'sisters' makes them move twice as fast, do more damage, and leaves them overheated and immobile afterwards, and is called Orgia Mode. (That might seem like a bit of a stretch, but with a guy like Ikutsuki on the team, you can never be too sure.) The Orgia Mode can cause unintentional surprised looks on Spanish player's faces. (The game was never translated to Spanish, it was released as is). The command console recording of Fuuka and her vibrating waist slimmer. Mitsuru comes by her room, wanting to have a word with her, but changes her mind after hearing the vibrations and Fuuka's high-pitched voice from the other side of the door.

comment
Sexy Man, Instant Harem: Early on, Akihiko asks you and Junpei to meet him at the police station...while surrounded by a group of (according to Junpei) very attractive girls. Humourously, Akihiko completely ignores them for the whole event, implying that he's used to this trope and even finds it rather annoying. The Female Protagonist's Social Link with him deconstructs the trope - while Akihiko may find a lot of girls who are attracted to him, it's been a long time since he's found anyone who has affection for him. Happens a second time when Ryoji arrives in the Fall semester, although it's only made prominent in his Social Link with the Female Protagonist.

Power-Up Letdown
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_18683fc2
comment
Power Up Letdown: In FES, specifically in The Journey, the Vorpal Blade skill obtained from accepting a Persona skill change that randomly happens after level-ups is bugged. It costs very little HP to cast, does 1 damage, and has no damage bonus from the main character's "Great" condition.ExplanationFES runs two separate files for skill stats to take account of the moon phase and condition mechanics, which are available in The Journey but not in The Answer. However, while trying to retain Vorpal Blade and Weary Thrust (skills that are powered up depending on the user's condition) in The Answer, the game is forced to define them twice as skill names and descriptions are kept in a single file each unlike the stats, but in the process, The Answer version of Vorpal Blade is left unfinished. An oversight causes any skill change in The Journey that results in Vorpal Blade to instead call the unfinished Answer version. Thankfully, passing this bugged skill down through fusion will turn it into the proper version.

Multiple Endings
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77
comment
Multiple Endings: Two, depending on a choice made near the end of the game. Bad Ending: The protagonist, despite everyone else's insistence on fighting to the end, kills Ryoji, wiping everyone's memories of the past school year and allowing the party to live without fear of the coming apocalypse. While this renders the entire month of January unplayable, it does count as a proper ending, rolling credits and allowing the creation of a New Game Plus. Good Ending: The protagonist lets Ryoji live, and the party must use the last month of the game to reach the top of Tartarus to battle Nyx on January 31st and avert the end of the world. They succeed, the protagonist having to use his soul to seal Nyx away. The game then cuts ahead about a month, giving a few more days of play time in the form of an epilogue before the protagonist dies with a smile on Aigis' lap on graduation day.

Eyed Screen: A cut-in of just the character's eyes will appear when you perform powerful Persona attacks that hit the enemy's weak spot. Fuuka gets one, just before she knows what the Evoker is used for an reveals that she has a Persona. When fighting Strega or your fellow party members they do this on the first turn as they summon their Persona. The Superboss does this before the fight, indicating how much trouble you're in.

Kidnapped for Experimentation: In their efforts to harness the power of Shadows, the Kirijo Group took to taking children, both offered up and forcibly taken, in order to forcibly give them Personas. Of the experiment, all but four of the children ended up dying, with the survivors being Mitsuru, Jin, Chidori, and Takaya, the latter three going on to form Strega while Mitsuru became a founding member of S.E.E.S..

Easy-Mode Mockery: In the PSP rerelease, the descriptions of the difficulty levels have subtle shades of this. Easy mode is passive-aggressively described as being for people who don't have time for tactical combat, as if the game is offended that you aren't playing it seriously. And the description for Normal difficulty implies if you aren't playing on at least that level, you aren't enjoying the game at all.

Poor Communication Kills

comment
Poor Communication Kills: Despite the Rule of Funny being in play, couldn't the guys have avoided execution at the hot springs if someone had just called out and said, "Don't come in yet!"? Junpei mentions that that they could have told them it was a misunderstanding, then Akihiko mentions that Mitsuru would not have thought of it as an accident regardless and probably would have still have "executed" them. Strega initially becomes SEES's enemy because they're told that the defeat of the twelve major arcana shadows will result in the end of Tartarus and the Dark Hour; they immediately assume that that also means the end of the power of Persona. Mitsuru and Aigis (at least) are both well aware that this isn't the case.

Playing with Fire: Junpei and Koromaru; Junpei's is more for exploiting enemy weaknesses and knocking them down, as his innate strength is more geared towards his physical attacks, and Koromaru also specializes in Casting a Shadow. The protagonist's initial Persona, Orpheus, also learns the Agi spell.

Green-Eyed Monster: Junpei quickly becomes jealous of the Protagonist after joining SEES, largely due to their being named field leader over himself and his own insecurities over the Protagonist being a more skilled fighter than him. Downplayed at the start of the Male Protagonist's route, as rumors quickly spread about him and Yukari dating because they arrived at school together on the first day. The Male Protagonist is never subject to anything more than his classmates recognising him because of the rumor, whilst a Drama CD reveals that many of the male second year students formed a broken hearts club over the rumors. At numerous points in the Female Protagonist's Social Link with Akihiko, it is made abundantly clear that Akihiko's harem of fangirls are seething with jealousy that he's paying attention to the FeMC over them - you can't even start the Social Link if your Charm isn't high enough for you to ignore the dirty looks you receive just for talking to him. Upon Ryoji's arrival at Gekkoukan High, he quickly develops a similar following to Akihiko. During his Social Link with the Female Protagonist, the third rank kicks off with Ryoji choosing to spend time with her over any of his admirers, many of whom watch on in envy as the two leave together.

Lawful Stupid: Mr. Ekoda, the classic literature teacher with seniority in Gekkoukan High. He does what he believes is in the best interest of the school and his students, which includes covering up the disappearance of Fuuka caused by bullies to save the bullies' reputation, and suspending Saori because of a gossip magazine's false story about her being promiscuous, and nearly suspending the main character, just for being her (only) friend. Mitsuru's punishment for him of the former act, and Miss Ounishi and Toriumi, his two kohai, brushing him off to support Saori wholeheartedly were definitely well deserved.

Stealth Pun: Akihiko fights Shadows with various fist weapons, including gloves. So basically, he's a Shadow Boxer. Much of Mara's stats and innate skills are a variety of thinly veiled dick jokes (weak against ice, belongs to the Tower arcana, has the strongest Pierce type attack in the game, etc) and Messiah (who's basically Jesus) comes equipped with Absorb Pierce. The whole time you are taking down the 12 shadows you are leveling up the Fool arcana that represents SEES. Which contrary to what you are led to believe does not stop the Dark Hour, the Shadows, etc. In other words,it's a Fool's Errand. Reversed when you judge the world is worth saving despite it being the harder path and start leveling up the Judgement arcana by ascending the final block with your reformed team to defeat Nyx.

comment
Hidden Heart of Gold: Shinjiro Aragaki. Residential badass foul-mouthed punk in imposing clothes, enjoys and fosters an extremely intimidating image (and would rather be seen that way, even by SEES,) with a soft spot for dogs and cooking. If you spend time with him, he tells the protagonist to take care of their health and enjoy their life after recovering from a cold. It's rather ironic, seeing as they both make a Heroic Sacrifice. The Moon S.Link clarifies that the jerkassery is more or less a facade (with good reason). He drops the act completely when he spends time with the heroine, and even has a fairly attractive smile.

Ancient Grome: The majority of the party boasts Greek figures as their Personas, such as Hermes (Junpei) and Cerberus (Koromaru), with Fuuka's Persona Lucia, a Christian saint, being the exception. Two examples of this trope are used for Fuuka's Ultimate Persona, Juno, who is based off of the Roman equivalent of Hera, and Akihiko's Ultimate Persona Caesar (he doesn't reference any Caesar in particular, but the motif seems to pick up from Julius Caesar.) The other Ultimate Personas take from completely different mythologies altogether, with Mitsuru's being based off of a real life ruler of a region in what was formally known as Asia Minor (a region that makes up most of modern day Turkey).

comment
Aborted Arc: Early in the game, the possibility of being able to summon a Persona without an Evoker is briefly brought up, as if the game was trying to set up some kind of future plot point. However, this is never mentioned again, even though Takaya summons his without one. Shortly before the introduction of Strega, the player learns of a "revenge request" website and the group are later shown abusing their powers as Persona users to attack their targets during the Dark Hour. By the time Strega and SEES come into conflict with one another, this idea has been dropped in favor of Strega being a death seeking doomsday cult, and the website is never mentioned again. If you go for the "kill Ryoji" ending, the purpose and significance of Tartarus is left unexplained. If you spare him and unlock the true ending, he'll explain the truth about Tartarus in the very next scene.

Infallible Babble: In the beginning of the game, while you're being told things like "Time never waits, it delivers all to the same end," you're also told that the main character has one year. Even if you did read it in the beginning, the meaning you get from it would be painfully different from what actually happens. You will occasionally hear students talking about rumors in the entrance of the campus. Most of which reflect the current state of the city, or plot, while some would give a hint about newly-introduced characters, clubs, or stores - a clue about a potential Social Link that you might unlock from that day onwards.

Apathetic Citizens: Ironically, the citizens in the game act this way toward Apathy Syndrome victims. People with Apathy Syndrome can't talk or move, so if they're stuck outside, they can easily become dehydrated or get heat stroke. However, other than occasionally commenting on them being creepy the general population doesn't seem to even notice AS victims are there, much less make any sort of attempt to get the AS sufferers off the streets and into some sort of care facility or really do anything about them. As a result almost every single area in the game is filled with Apathy Syndrome victims by the full moon, which only gets worse as the game goes on.

Status Effects
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_2639f6eb
comment
Status Effects: Most of them are consistent with the rest of the series. In addition to regular battle effects (Poison, Charm, Panic, which is similar to Silence, Rage, Fear, Distress, Freeze and Shock - the latter three reduce evasion to zero and make the character more prone to a critical hit), there's also your characters' Condition, which will change depending on how long you do a Tartarus run. Being in Tartarus for too long will make you tired, and overexerting yourself more will make you sick. A sick character in particular's battle performance will greatly suffer. Performing certain tasks can put a character in "Great" condition, which improves battle performance. The Endurance stat in this game is important because a higher endurance allows for a longer run, and by the final two months of the game, one would be hard-pressed to have characters get tired from a long run. The Portable version of the game eases this by only having characters get tired after they complete a run, and resting times to improve Condition are shortened, so in context, one can do a long grinding session from the get-go that would have been impossible in the original and FES games. The Answer does away with Conditions all together. Also in Portable, "Downed" (knocked down from either a critical hit or exposed to an elemental weakness) characters recover and can attack on the same turn (this was lifted from Persona 4), whereas originally, a turn had to be wasted getting back up. The Dizzy status effect is also exclusive to Portable.

Super Move Portrait Attack: The game shows a close-up of the hero every time a Fusion Spell is used. Portraits of the Personas involved will appear to his sides. It also randomly shows a cut-in of a character's eyes when their Persona either hits a weakness or gets a Critical Hit (and the very first time they summon in battle as part of the story). This applies both to party members and enemy Persona-users (plus the optional superboss). Finally, when all enemies are knocked down, a character will suggest (via portrait pop-up and a voice-over) initiating an All-Out Attack. Agree, and the screen will throw up the portraits of all characters participating in the attack.

Mythology Gag
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: In the English localization, Innocent Sin Online (and the accompanying player names Maya and Tatsuya) is one big reference to the characters of Persona 2 and the locations in Persona (and was originally a reference to Megami Tensei, the game that started it all). Also, several fusions (particularly the ones that Elizabeth requests) are those of key characters from other MegaTen games; Alice and Lilith, for example, were important characters in Shin Megami Tensei. Early in the game, Junpei comments that rumors can't become real, which was a major plot point in Persona 2. At one point, meeting with a counselor to decide your future is a big plot point. (Noted that The End of the World as We Know It is also supposed to happen makes this meaningful in another way.) The Reaper bears a particularly strong resemblance to JOKER aka Tatsuya Sudou from Eternal Punishment. Both wear a very similar (although the Reaper's is significantly more bloody) trench coat/overcoat. Like how JOKER wore a paper bag on his head, the Reaper wears a sack on his head. Most notable of all, the Reaper appears to be missing the same eye that Tatsuya lost moments before his death. The TV set in the lounge is sometimes tuned into "Trish's Who's Who!" which apparently interviews notable people in the area. Though their names are never given, judging from the descriptions, these include several characters from Persona and Persona 2, serving as something of an epilogue to those characters. Trish herself is a reference to a fairy in all three games, though is obviously not the same character. The One-Woman Wail appearing in "Aria of Soul" and "The Battle for Everyone's Soul" is inherited from Persona and Persona 2, where the aria was sung by Igor's assistant Belladonna, and is likely being used in this game as a reference to Nyx's usual MegaTen appearance—an opera diva. Also: "The Battle for Everyone's Soul" is a rock remix of the first half of the first Persona's version of theme. While it uses rock instruments, the rhythm is mostly the same (compare this to this). In the Portable Updated Re-release, there's a few references to Persona 4. One that won't be apparent to many is the fact that Ken's favorite food is the exact same one as his fellow Justice Arcana, Nanako. Hypnos, Nemesis and Thanatos were boss fights of the Snow Queen quest in the original Persona. Now they are Personas of Takaya, Ken and the Protagonist respectively. Also, Takaya's design is similar to that of Hypnos' boss form. Yukari's heart-shaped choker is pretty much a Palette Swap of the same accessory present in the Demon/Persona Succubus' design since Nocturne and on. They even wear it the same way, with the heart symbol to the front and the left side of the neck. A bow found in Monad Block is called Mary's Resolve in the original game but changed to Maki's Resolve in Portable. This is a reference to Maki Sonomura from the first Persona who is renamed Mary in Revelations'' but kept her Japanese name in the Portable rerelease. The Sugar Key is required to fuse King Frost. In Digital Devil Saga, the Sugar Key is required to open a chest in a sidequest that leads to the boss King Frost. There is a drink called "Cielo Mist" which is made in Jamaica. That is a reference to Cielo, a party member in Digital Devil Saga. The Agni, Varuna, Indra, and Vayu Bracers offer a large boost to Fire, Ice, Elec, and Wind damage respectively. These are named after Atma Avatars in Digital Devil Saga of the corresponding element specialization. The Best Friends fusion spell requires Decarabia and Forneus, two demons who are friends in Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne. Elizabeth comments that Decarabia waited for Forneus forever, not knowing that the Demi-Fiend killed him. A security tape from FES shows Mitsuru and Officer Kurosawa going into Junpei's room because Mitsuru thinks that someone broke in... but it's really just messy. In Eternal Punishment, Katsuya the cop has a similar assessment of Ulala and Maya's messy apartment. Bebe enjoys Kyoto more than Destiny World. Destiny Land is a location in Shin Megami Tensei I, Digital Devil Saga, and Persona 5 appearing each time as a Bland-Name Product of Disneyland. The save screen in the 2023 version of Portable is modeled after the interface of the PSP's save menus. In Persona 3 Reload, when the Protagonist sits down to listen to his music player at the start of the intro, the first song he cues up is "Burn My Dread", the original opening song, followed by '"Want To Be Close", the protagonist's school-time leitmotif, before he cues up the new opening song.

Credits Montage: The end credits use clips from the animated cutscenes, interspersed with images of the party members and their respective Persona. The end credits for The Answer replace the clips with the animated cutscenes from the epilogue, and move Aigis to the head of the cast list whilst bumping the Male Protagonist to the end, and the end credits for Portable remove the clips of the animated cutscenes due to their absence in that version of the game.

Implausible Hair Color: Everyone (but Aigis and Bebe) is Japanese, thus logically should have dark brown or black hair, but... The female MC has a fairly light auburn. Mitsuru's hair color is a fairly dark red. Chidori's is a very bright red, though given her style, it's likely dyed. Yukari's hair is a light brown. Akihiko has naturally gray/silver hair.

comment
Bilingual Bonus: Most of the vocal themes on the soundtrack are in English, making them an example for the original Japanese version. The Shirt of Chivalry becomes one in the English version. The characters on the back of each character are fairly descriptive or ironic in Shinjiro's case. The main character's "honourable man," Blood Knight Akihiko's is "fight," Ken's is grudge, Junpei's is color, but more likely "dirty minded", and Shinjiro's is "life." "Kimi no Kioku", the ending theme song, which elaborates on the game's ending sequence and foreshadows Aigis and the rest of the team's emotional development during "The Answer"). Since the song is in Japanese and there are no subtitles, English-speaking players have to find out what the song's about on their own. Strega means "witch" in Italian which in turn is derived from Ancient Greece where the "Striges" were mythological birds that lived in the marshes of Hades, by the edge of Tartarus.

Accent Adaptation: Easy to miss, since it's only in one or two easily-missable, non-voice acted dialogues, but during the Kyoto school trip, the Kansai accent is depicted as American Southern in the English version. Funnily enough, the same accent would be adapted as a North Jersey/Bronx accent years later in Persona 4 Arena.

People with single parents don't even mention the other parent. Even Aigis' creators died ten years prior to the games events.

Easter Egg
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_29a39f6
comment
Easter Egg: The Mitsuru and Aigis variation of the Summer Festival scene, which is by far the most obscure to get. You have to refuse all the girls' offers, then go to Naganaki Shrine at night (normally you're locked out of everywhere but Paulownia Mall at nighttime, this one specific day is one of the few times you're not) to see the scene. Without knowing about this, you'd assume their trip to the festival was just a Noodle Incident. Related, there's an episode title of Featherman R that you'll only see if you don't go to the festival, and it's by far one of the weirdest in the game. Barring the protagonist, make a team entirely of girls, entirely of guys (either Akihiko, Junpei, and Ken, or Akihiko, Shinjiro and Ken - other combinations don't work), entirely of 2nd year students (Junpei, Yukari and Aigis), or of the original SEES members (Mitsuru, Akihiko, and Shinjiro) and talk to one of them in Tartarus — the team members will comment on the current party composition. Put Akihiko and Ken together in a party with a female protagonist who's become lovers with both of them. The atmosphere will be incredibly awkward, compounded further if the fourth party member is Junpei. Tartarus conversation also changes depending on the date and the player's latest S. Link activity. Most of it is the expected ones tied to story progression, but if the player had done a S. Link event with a party member earlier that day, he/she will comment on how he/she had just talked to the main character. A romanced party member will express his/her embarrassment if talked to. However, if the Tartarus exploration takes place on 12/25, the party member the player picked for the Christmas Eve event earlier will comment on the irony. Equip Mara as your Persona and enter the Velvet Room and Elizabeth or Theodore will make an... interesting comment.

comment
Arrange Mode: Playing as the female protagonist in Portable results in a markedly different experience from playing as the male protagonist, who is the only option in the other versions. Key differences include: Re-assigning Social Links to different characters, most notably having one for each of your teammates, unlike with the male protagonist who doesn't have any Social Links with male teammates. Allowing the player to romance multiple characters at once but without the jealousy mechanic, much like in Persona 4. For those who prefer to have a single partner, you even get the choice to maintain a platonic relationship. A different set of weapons; while the male protagonist uses one-handed swords, the female protagonist uses naginatas. Allowing Shinjiro's life to be spared on October 4 by having their Social Link maxed out, with this character being one of the aforementioned female-exclusive Social Links. However, since Shinjiro being alive and conscious would drastically change the plot of the game onwards, he's instead placed in a coma, waking up only on the last day of the game. Recoloring the user interface to use pinks rather than blues. Different town exploration and random battle themes. Differences in cutscenes and dialogue, although the overall plot remains the same.

comment
Bland-Name Product: The numerous soft drinks in this game all have names that play on the names of their Real Life equivalents and also reference popular TV shows, video games, and even gaming conventions. For example, "Cylon Tea," described ingame as coming in 12 different flavors, and the BauerBar keeps you going for 24 hours. Other examples are Ciello Mist (Sierra Mistnote  Which has been discontinued as of 2023.), SoBay (SoBe), and Mad Bull (Red Bull). If you go on a date with Kenji, he talks about getting D'z's new single, a reference to real-life Japanese band B'z. While playing Innocent Sin Online, Maya mentions another MMORPG named "CoW". The music store in the mall is Power Records, a play on Tower Records. In the request where you retrieve a handheld game console from Junpei, he mentions the handheld console's name being the "COMPstation Portable". Must be a twist of fate. Also, in the description of the item itself, it says that there's a disc for Odin Cube inside of it.

Artifact Title: The Xbox and PlayStation 4 releases keep the Portable subtitle, despite not being on the PlayStation Portable, or a portable system in general. Zig-Zagged in the Nintendo Switch's case, due to its nature of being a hybrid console, and the PC, due to the ability to play on portable devices like laptops or handheld PCs like the Steam Deck. The port gives a nod to this by having the save/load screen a recreation of the PlayStation Portable one.

Awesome, but Impractical
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae
comment
Awesome, but Impractical: Be wary of elemental magic spells described as inflicting "severe" damage. Although they do more damage than -dyne spells, it's only by about 30%, and despite being single-target spells they tend to cost more SP than the all-targeting Ma-dyne spells, making them woefully inefficient for normal purposes. Behold the Thanatos persona, your reward for tolerating the creepy child that keeps appearing in your room at midnight. The Persona that embodies the theme of the whole game, the one that's on the cover art. And then come down from that high as you realize the consequences of fusing the ultimate Death Persona from the other six Death personas in the game. Mudo spells up the wazoo, they'll fill the slots constantly on every setup, and will completely shunt out any more useful spells you could fill them with. Even in spite of this, he comes with a set of very generous skills, but has stats too low to make good use of them the way higher personas will later. The remastered port of Portable enables the infinite revival setting. The player may turn it on and try to fight something super strong like the Reaper early. While the Reaper fight can be done on a fresh save as early as the first block (and, in fact, the corresponding achievement can be obtained early this way), considering the stats, have fun doing this for hours per attempt. The level-ups are not worth either, only reaching at most the 20s with a party of three and on Beginner difficulty (or at least with EXP set to More).

Cool, but Inefficient: Several high-end Personas can only be made through special fusion using four or more specific Personas. You must have each of the ingredients on hand to perform the special fusion, so one Persona will demand up to half your max stock to fuse. It becomes very, very costly when you're discarding your favourites to free up space, paying out the nose for the fusion components, and then paying out the nose again to re-summon what you've tossed out.

comment
Autobots, Rock Out!: As Shoji Meguro composed the game, it should be no surprise. The Tartarus Guardians have the rocking "Master of Tartarus" accompany each of their battles. In the PSP rerelease, the female protagonist receives the much more heavy "Danger Zone" (an instrumental remix of "Soul Phrase") for these battles. Right as the protagonist awakens to his Persona, the fast-paced guitar track "Unavoidable Battle" briefly plays before Thanatos wrecks the Magician Shadow. It reappears as the theme for battles against Strega. The Velvet Room theme gets an epic rock remix for the final boss, "The Battle for Everyone's Souls aka Battle Hymn of The Soul".

Two Guys and a Girl: The dynamic between the Protagonist, Junpei, and Yukari. Tellingly, this relationship is maintained even in the Bad Ending, wherein everyone loses their memories of the past year. Akihiko, Mitsuru, and Shinjiro were also the original founding members of SEES. Interesting enough, they're also the only two characters Mitsuru is on first name basis with as well. Downplayed with Strega - whilst Takaya, Jin and Chidori fit on a surface level, they only share three scenes together as a trio, and Chidori's relationships with Takaya and Jin aren't fleshed out before her death. Expanded materials, such as a Drama CD and a novelization, would further develop their group dynamic.

 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_2f50c5bf
comment
Theme Music Power-Up: In the opening scene of the game, the protagonist has his headphones on listening to the song Burn My Dread-Last Battle- while the audience only gets the muffled version that comes as a result. During the final sealing of Nyx, the song finally plays as the background music in its full glory to represent the fact that you will win this fight no matter what, though at the ultimate price.

Accidental Pervert
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_2f52c0af
comment
Accidental Pervert: Occurs during the July Full Moon operation at Shirakawa Boulevard, after the party is separated. On the Male Protagonist route, a mind controlled Yukari exits the shower with a Modesty Towel and slaps him when she regains control of her faculties. Can happen a second time during the hot springs incident in Kyoto - Junpei, Ryoji, Akihiko and (potentially) the Male Protagonist are still in the hot springs when they change over from men to women, and subsequently when Yukari, Fuuka, Aigis, Mitsuru and (potentially) the Female Protagonist arrive. If the girls catch the guys, Mitsuru will execute them on the spot - though how much the trope applies to Ryoji and Junpei is debatable, as the two had been openly discussing this very situation happening beforehand.

Gratuitous Foreign Language
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_2fcf9bbc
comment
Gratuitous Foreign Language: Almost the entire soundtrack is in English, despite being sung entirely by Japanese people. Lotus Juice's rapping doesn't sound too bad because he was raised in America, but Yumi Kawamura's vocals can be very, very difficult to make out. The only Japanese vocal songs in the game are the credits themes of both the Journey and the Answer. Mitsuru occasionally speaks English in the Japanese version. This is changed to French in the English release. In Portable, Akihiko joins in during the third Full Moon event with "Oui." Bebe, the foreign exchange student who mixes Japanese in with what seems to be (Bebe doesn't have any voice acting, all of his dialogue coming in text boxes) a French accent. In the Japanese version, his speech uses a lot of katakana implying odd stressing as well as using odd, archaic pronouns (referring to himself as "sessha" and tagging "-dono" when referring to the protagonist). The song "Changing Seasons" contains French proverbs in the breakdown section, and the street names in the town map are also written in French. Even Spanish shows up occasionally in the English version. After finishing a battle, Shinjiro may quip "Adios, asshole," and late in the game Aigis may yell "Hasta la vista!" when attacking an enemy. Bebe will also start using "Hasta la vista" if the protagonist tells him that phrase when he asks how to say "goodbye" in Japanese.

Custom Uniform: Only one of the main characters (Aigis) wears the school uniform properly, and even then, she still stands out as she wears the winter uniform during the summer. The rest of the team tend to alter their uniform by adding their own custom accessories and/or foregoing the uniform jacket.

Good Ending: The protagonist lets Ryoji live, and the party must use the last month of the game to reach the top of Tartarus to battle Nyx on January 31st and avert the end of the world. They succeed, the protagonist having to use his soul to seal Nyx away. The game then cuts ahead about a month, giving a few more days of play time in the form of an epilogue before the protagonist dies with a smile on Aigis' lap on graduation day.

comment
Awful Truth: Considering that a lot of characters connected to S.E.E.S. dies before and during the plot, the reaction of your party members on the deaths of Shinjiro, Chidori, Mitsuru's father, and the protagonist depict near-realistic symptoms of shock and trauma from losing a loved one such as not being able to start conversations or finding the right words to say (in Junpei's case) or locking oneself in isolation for weeks (in Mitsuru's case). Erebus can never be truly killed as long as there is at least one person who holds a desire for death.

The Hero Dies: Implied in the good ending, where the Protagonist uses a move that requires all of his HP to seal Nyx away. When the game picks up again a month later, he keeps thinking to himself how very tired he is and the game ends with him closing his eyes and finally "falling asleep" in Aigis's lap as the light shines on him and the screen fades to white. Outright confirmed in The Answer, where the Protagonist's death is the main source of conflict.

Actor Allusion: In the English translation of Portable.

Some of the responses on the Female Protagonist's dates are allusions to lines given to Rise, another Persona character voiced by Laura Bailey.

 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_3ac5110b
comment
Unintentionally Unwinnable: Because advancing the story line is irrespective of how much time the party has actually spent dungeon crawling and gaining levels, this can happen if the next Full Moon area is accessed too early: if SEES isn't leveled up enough, beating the Full Moon boss can be practically impossible, and there are rarely ever enemies to grind out levels on in the Full Moon areas. Thankfully, this isn't a fatal example, as save files can always be reloaded. The developers were obviously aware of this and made steps to avoid it, as stated in the Developer's Foresight entry above.

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_3ed23024
comment
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: The Logical Weakness of a Persona user is that when they are not focused enough to evoke and maintain the presence of their Personas to protect themselves, they are no different from a normal human. Thus, it is no surprise gunfire can easily kill one in cutscenes when they would have normally shrugged it off in battles. Social Links requires you to form bonds with various people in order to maximize Persona fusions. Unfortunately, in order to maximize efficiency, the protagonist usually has to pick dialogue options that agrees to their thinking no matter how self-destructive they are (Kazuchi and Hidetoshi) or how unsavory they are (Nozomi and Tanaka) lest the player wants to waste more time gaining points. At one point, you are forced to say something critical to Nozomi which results in him immediately cutting ties with you and by extension reversing the Social Link. Fortunately, the Social Link is immediately restored after an untimely event.

 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_3f0310d6
comment
Magikarp Power: Odin is pretty unremarkable at first (well, by the standards of a level 63 persona, anyway...) but a bit of grinding gets him Thunder Reign, an "extreme" tier Lightning spell. If that doesn't kill the enemy outright, it's also guaranteed to put them in Shocked status, meaning any subsequent physical attacks against them will critical. Level Odin a little more, and he gets Spell Mastery, which cuts his SP costs in half. Daisoujou hardly seems worth the effort to fuse... until you realize it's the only way to get Samsara, the strongest light spell in the game, which has a high chance of delivering an instant KO to all enemies. Junpei starts off as a decent tank, but quickly falls out of favor when nearly every boss uses his weakness element. Keep him leveled up, though, and he becomes a force to be reckoned with come endgame.

First-Name Basis
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_4023b8c8
comment
Whilst Persona 3 is unabashedly set in Japan, it still American-ises some of the terminology used instead of using the Japanese equivalent - namely referring to classes as Junior and Senior years. Subsequent games would instead use the Japanese terminology, and refer to the high school classes as First, Second, and Third Years. Additionally, all characters refer to each other on a First-Name Basis and without honorifics, whereas later games' dubs would preserve these elements from the original.

comment
Guest-Star Party Member: Shinjiro Aragaki is this in a roundabout way, as he's only available for one in-game month before his Plotline Death. This is covered up by the fact that his Persona, Castor, can learn a full list of skills up to Level 70, whereas your other party members will learn their last skill in the mid 40's or 50’s, and cannot learn more until they obtain their Ultimate Personas, but chances are he won't learn them unless you deliberately go and level grind him. Portable allows the player to experience some of his late-game skills without grinding, but only in one of the Vision Quest battles where the gimmick revolves around finding the opportunity to knock down using his (or the main character's) Strike skills.

Bittersweet Ending: While the MC and the rest of SEES do eventually manage to save the world from well, itself, none of their efforts will go recognized since no one else remembers what happened. This is especially heart-breaking since the MC sacrificed his (or her) soul so that they could seal away Nyx until humanity comes to terms with its fear of death, which probably won't happen for awhile, if at all.

Flunky Boss: Some of the Full Moon Shadows will summon lesser Shadows to assist them in the battle. One boss in The Answer (the Rebellious Cyclops) will also do this. The Hanged Man shadow repeatedly summons minions that take him out of your attack range, making for a very long fight (if you aren't over-leveled).

Shut Up, Hannibal!: On January 31, just below the top of Tartarus, Takaya confronts the heroes one final time, suggests that the end of the world is nigh and cannot be stopped, and asks why they are not celebrating the end of the world. Yukari responds succinctly, and when he doesn't and continues his nihilistic Motive Rant about "shining a light upon this darkened world", Junpei takes up the debate instead.

Elemental Powers: Each Persona-user tends to specialize with one element, but it's not as pervasive as the the previous or the next games. Playing with Fire: Junpei and Koromaru; Junpei's is more for exploiting enemy weaknesses and knocking them down, as his innate strength is more geared towards his physical attacks, and Koromaru also specializes in Casting a Shadow. The protagonist's initial Persona, Orpheus, also learns the Agi spell. Blow You Away: Yukari. An Ice Person: Mitsuru. Shock and Awe: Akihiko, and Ken to a lesser extent. Light 'em Up: Ken specializes in this more.

When SEES learn of the coming of Nyx, Ryoji repeatedly states that only the Protagonist can hurt him. Come the final battle, and the entire party are able to cause damage to Nyx Avatar, despite the game making it abundantly clear that Nyx Avatar is the former Ryoji. That being said, the protagonist ''is'' the only one who manages to actually defeat Nyx, as even winning against Nyx Avatar doesn't stop the Fall until the protagonist sacrifices themselves to become the Great Seal.

No Fair Cheating: In the vanilla version only, if you try to use an Action Replay to hack in party members that are not supposed to be accessible at a particular point in the game, get inaccessible Personas, or get the Universe Persona earlier than the final battle, whoever is your Mission Control will express anger or shock — complete with English translation and voice acting! Not caring about breaking Optional Boss rules and just let Plumes of Dusk or infinite restarts be your lifeline? Nope, all the boss will do at this point is always the 9999-damage attack, and the boss will always move first after the player's revival to ensure that the message came across.

We Were Your Team: After the death of the MC, the remaining members of S.E.E.S. went their separate ways. The separation itself was not all that unusual: after all, the group no longer had a reason to exist and two of its members had just finished high school. However, during the events of The Answer in FES, it's made clear that the MC was the only person who could keep the group together and that everyone was devastated by his sudden and unexplained death. The void left behind by his departure not only ended up trapping the remaining members of S.E.E.S. in a "Groundhog Day" Loop, but also led them to fight among themselves.

On November 4th, Ikutsuki reveals his intention to end the world, and kills Mitsuru's father, only to die himself. Additionally, the Full Moon Shadows begin to appear starting in April, the fourth month of the year. The Reaper has exactly 4444 HP.

A.I. Roulette
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_479ea2c1
comment
A.I. Roulette: This is the only reason The Reaper can be killed without resorting to Armageddon. The key to surviving this fight is that it likes to waste turns using element Break spells and then refuse to exploit the new weakness. The hardest part of the fight is actually the end - once the Reaper is almost dead, the roulette shuts off and its AI goes to "Nuke 'em" mode. If your allies are left on "Act Freely", this can be applied to your Party Members. Granted, they will listen to what Fuuka has to say once she finishes her Enemy Scan, but that won't stop Mitsuru from using Marin Karin at the worst possible time. You'd best make use of tactics like "Full Assault", "Same Target", "Knock Down", or "Heal/Support" to railroad your party's decisions and avert this trope as much as you can. The game actually gives quite a bit of Artificial Brilliance to the AI. God help you if you're ambushed by an enemy and are equipped with a persona weak to their attack: they will hit you with it, and once you're knocked down, they'll hit you again, and then the all-too-familiar game over screen loads. Your enemies (and your allies, prior to a scan) will almost always start with some version of "inflict damage on all enemies" in the hope of knocking everyone down, and, if that fails, the next member will zero in on the one who's weakest. Since this goes for enemies as well as your party members, there will be at least one battle in which you never make it to your first turn and simply watch the enemy use your tactics against you. There's also invoked That One Boss on 135 — Natural Dancer, who will learn that since you're willing to eat the damage of a reflected physical attack in order to break their barrier, it's best to charm you into inaction and pound you with consecutive pierce attacks if you've made yourself immune to wind. (They also tend to stop casting the Useless Useful Spell if you don't die from it.) On the other hand, some fights simply come down to AI Roulette: if the Hierophant boss chooses and inflicts "Prophecy of Ruin" at the start, you may as well reset. Generally, the AI shows signs of brilliance and waits for you to reveal a vulnerability, but if it chooses to attack, it will notice if one attack is more effective than another. If three out of four are vulnerable, it will take out the three before turning to physical attacks on the player character... damnit.

The Stinger: A brief one in both endings. A "Fin" is displayed on the final shot of both, though both were removed from Persona 3 Portable as that version of the game lacked animated cutscenes. In the bad ending, Akihiko and Mitsuru leaving school on graduation day, before cutting to Yukari, the Male Protagonist, and Junpei partying inside a karaoke booth, ignorant of the upcoming apocalypse. In the good ending, the Male Protagonist and Aigis are joined on the roof of the school by the rest of the party, presumably only moments after his death. Aigis looks at the group and smiles.

Early in the game, Aigis — for reasons she doesn't fully understand herself — seems to have an obsession with the main character, taking it to the point that she actually breaks into his dorm room to monitor him. We later find out that it's because ten years ago she sealed away the Cosmic Horror's herald inside his body. Her memories of the event were corrupted, which is why she can't explain her desire to be near him.

Leaning on the Fourth Wall: When Igor greets the protagonist when they arrive in the Velvet Room for the first time, he mentions how it's been a long time since the Velvet Room had a guest, in reference of the seven year gap between Innocent Sin (when Tatsuya, Maya, and his friends first became guests of the Velvet Room), released in 1999 and this game, which released in 2006. Fusing Satan, the second highest Persona in FES, will cause him to have a unique line that has him taunt the player. When it appears to Junpei and Akihiko that the main character has "picked up" Aigis, Akihiko complains that the protagonist didn't even say anything. If you try to add Ken to your party in The Answer, he will sometimes mention that he needs to be stronger because his level is low.

Did We Just Have Tea with Cthulhu?
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_4a879f41
comment
Did We Just Have Tea with Cthulhu?: While Elizabeth isn't evil, she is still one of the most deadly foes in the game and the motivations of her and Igor are left highly ambiguous. However in the Updated Re-release, the protagonist has the delightful option of escorting the princess of darkness around town on several innocent dates where Elizabeth's lack of knowledge on human social behaviour causes all manner of hijinks with her unfamiliarity to the world. For bonus points, you even get to sleep with her, and unlike the other romance options, there is no doubt whatsoever what happened during the Fade to Black. Her brother Theodore from the PSP version is just as dangerous in combat, and possibly even more of a Fish out of Water when it comes to dealing with human society. And an interesting variation: when the Appriser of Death realizes who he really is and what he will cause, and shares this information with his friends —friends with whom he had eaten ramen with, peeped on girls with, attended classes with, and enjoyed hot baths with at an onsen during a school trip. It hits them all pretty hard with the implications of all the time they've spent together. And even then, although he can willingly change back and forth into his true form, he will still sit quietly and converse with his friends about the ultimate outcome.

Advertised Extra: Thanatos features pretty heavily into promotional art and the opening - he's even in the picture at the top of the page. That said, he only has 2 mandatory appearances in the game, when the Protagonist summons their persona for the first time and when Ryoji tries to convince the Protagonist to kill him, after first refusing to do so. Additionally, Thanatos can't be fused until relatively close to the end of the game, after the Death social link completes, and you can easily skip summoning him - particularly since he requires a sacrifice of 5-6 other personas depending on the version you are playing. On top of that, Thanatos only requires the player reach level 64 to fuse him, so he's outclassed by several other late game Personas - with Orpheus Telos (in FES and Portable) and Messiah being much straighter examples for the Protagonist's ultimate Persona.

Useless Useful Spell
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_4c709317
comment
Useless Useful Spell: Averted, as per MegaTen fare; though some enemies (and all bosses) are immune or resistant to some, bad status effect skills and instant death spells are completely viable. A VERY lethal combination is a Fear inducing skill followed by Ghastly Wail, which will NEVER miss. Ever. Bonus points if you first use a skill that increases suceptibility to status effects. This makes boss encounters like Fortune & Strength even more anticlimax than they already are... Still played straight thanks to your teammates using said spells at the worst possible times. Even if the spells aren't useless, they're tremendously situational. The straightest example is Yukari keeping Charmdi the entire game. A team member's skill slot being permanently taken by a single-target status heal that only works for one status is obviously a bad idea. On the useful side, Charm is probably the single most devastating status you can have and when it's a threat you will be glad it's there.

Early-Installment Weirdness
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_4f4372e9
comment
Early-Installment Weirdness: It might be a little odd to call it early, but this was the first "modern" Persona title after a soft reboot. Needless to say, as the very first game with the new design paradigm, there were a number of areas where what would become P-Studio was still sussing out what game designs worked the best, and there's some comparatively oddball mechanics as a result: The most infamous is the original's inability to control other party members, and their resulting Artificial Stupidity which could go so far as to render some members borderline useless even with some AI nursing (poor Mitsuru). As a result, you leaned far harder on the protagonist, who was more fighting alone with some support characters than with a proper team. This was especially weird given that other SMT and Persona games prior let you control your team; Persona 4 restored direct control while still leaving AI control an option, and the design has remained since, even getting backported into P3P and Persona 3 Reload. On the subject of combat, the ability to split the party up to explore a floor. Your teammates didn't appear on the map just for decoration, you can split the team up to explore the dungeon faster, but this means they'll have to fight alone if they encounter a Shadow. In practice this is rarely worth it (partially because, thanks to PS2 memory limits, dungeon floors never get that big) and by and large people just explored as a team. Later games kept teammates on the field but dropped the split-up function. Another combat subject is the three physical melee elements. SMT splitting physical damage types isn't totally new, but having three separate schools and resistances for physicals was unique and made physical resistance quite a bit more complicated. Later Personas, and even later SMT titles, rolled it into a single "melee" school (with "pierce" returning as Gun-type attacks for SMT 4 and P5), making physical immunity easier to manage. The plot-driven Full Moon Boss battles are fixed events that happen on specific dates, independent of your exploration of Tartarus, while Tartarus itself has its own set of boss battles tied to progressing it. Later games streamlined their boss battles by removing the distinction between plot-driven and dungeon-based bosses, with both Persona 4 and Persona 5 both tying their story bosses directly to dungeon exploration, which was itself revamped to more closely reflect the story progression, as well as providing you with a timeline within which to accomplish your objective rather than requiring you to prepare with specific dates in mind. While Persona 5 does have its own Tartarus equivalent in the form of Mementos, in that both dungeons are procedurally generated and are not directly impacted by the plot, any bosses fought there are the result of taking up sidequests, and not tied to dungeon progression. There are only three social stats - Academics, Charm, and Courage - with a total of six ranks in each. Persona 4 would add an additional two social stats, but reduce the total ranks in each to five. Unlike later games, party members have lives outside of SEES and aren't always available to go dungeon-crawling with you. Later games have the other party members always available unless a major story event mandates otherwise. The last combat related subject of note is the protagonist's ability to equip every melee weapon. In the original Persona 3 and Persona 3 FES, this was done because of the party members being uncontrollable, so you needed a way to hit every physical element that didn't cost HP. It also allowed every melee weapon type to be available after Shinjiro died, as otherwise they'd be useless inclusions. Ever since Persona 4 removed physical melee elements and allowed for direct party member control, future protagonists (as well as the protagonists of Persona 3 Portable and Persona 3 Reload) have been restricted to one type of melee weapon. The ability to reverse and even break Social Links. If you decline a link's invitations too many times (or if you spend too much time with other girls, for the ladies) you can give them the idea you no longer want to be friends, putting the link into a reverse state. Hitting certain dialogue landmines in rank up scenes can also trigger this or even put the link into a break state (Yukari being particularly infamous for this). Reverse means you need to dedicate some time periods to the link before you'll gain points again, while a broken link won't even give an EXP bonus anymore. While it was a somewhat more realistic depiction of friendship (especially with teens), in practice it made juggling the time aspect that much more difficult and game-y, and tended to hurt immersion. Persona 4 mostly did away with the featurenote declining invites no longer has a penalty and there's no more jealousy mechanic; a few reversal landmines remain in dialogue, but this time you need to be pretty willfully dense and not paying attention to the message of the link to hit them, and Persona 5 removes it entirely. Romantic Social Links worked a bit differently. In 3, a link with a romance-able girl will turn romantic at around two-thirds of the way in - usually around level 6 or 7. This not only feeds into the jealousy mechanic noted above, but also means the links tend to be focused a bit more on romance (compared to links in later games, which are more their own stories about the quandary a character faces). Weirder still, however, is that there is no option to just be friends - if you hit the romance point in a link, you're romantically involved with that person. This means that you have no choice but to be a philanderer if you want to see all the content and get EXP boosts for all Persona Arcana. Needless to say, this was a common complaint and 4 addressed it almost immediately. Like combat, this got revised in the female route of P3P, though the male route retains the mechanics. The male protagonist's social links would eventually be revised in Persona 3 Reload. Social Links would phone the Protagonist up during the week to make plans for Sunday, and it would be up to the player to keep track of if they had already made plans with someone else - with repeatedly declining invites or cancelling plans having a negative effect on the Social Link. From Persona 4 onwards, Social Links would only contact the Protagonist to make plans for that day, and there was no penalty for declining as the game would progress to the event upon the player agreeing to meet with someone rather than present every option available at that time; this method was backported to Persona 3 Portable and Persona 3 Reload. Party member Social Links are only able to be progressed during school time, despite the entire party living in the same dorm, and neither Aigis or any of the male party members were given links of their own; the intention seems to have been that the SEES link covered all the party members as friends, with the character specific links for the girls serving to show how intimate their relationship with the Protagonist became, but the result is that Aigis and the male party members feel comparatively under-developed as a result. Subsequent games made sure to give every party member their own Social Link, whilst Aigis would receive one in FES and the remaining party members were amongst the new Social Links given to the Female Protagonist route in Portable. 3 has a much more science-fiction feel compared to 4 and 5. 3 includes a lot technology specifically designed for dealing with personas and shadows, such as the evokers, as well as other sci-fi technology such as Ridiculously Human Robots. 4 and 5, by contrast, are more pure Urban Fantasy where the use of technology is limited to Post-Modern Magik involving realistic tech, such as televisions and smartphones. Unlike the later two games, the party members don’t get their Ultimate Personas by completing their Social Links but automatically through story events. Neither FES or Portable provide the cast with a third tier Persona evolution, as this would not become a staple of the Updated Rereleases until Persona 4 Golden. Upon completing every Social Link in a single playthrough in one of the Updated Rereleases, the player is given the ability to fuse a higher level version of Orpheus; this practice would not carry forward into later games. Whilst Persona 3 is unabashedly set in Japan, it still American-ises some of the terminology used instead of using the Japanese equivalent - namely referring to classes as Junior and Senior years. Subsequent games would instead use the Japanese terminology, and refer to the high school classes as First, Second, and Third Years. Additionally, all characters refer to each other on a First-Name Basis and without honorifics, whereas later games' dubs would preserve these elements from the original. Armor is split between two slots, Armor for Defense and Footwear for Evasion; subsequent games would streamline this and place both stats on the Armor and remove Footwear as an equipment category. Additionally, certain armor pieces would change the cosmetic appearance of the characters, rather than have a separate slot for costumes, as would be the case in subsequent games. Upon starting a New Game Plus, you retain the Persona compendium, money and equipment that you finished the game with, in addition to retaining the Protagonist's level and starting the game with the full shop inventory already available; however, you have to progress through the story again to unlock access to the compendium and advanced fusion. Subsequent games changed this, only allowing the Persona compendium, any unused Skill Cards, money and shop inventory to carry forward, but not restricting access to the compendium and advanced fusion. Messiah, the Protagonist's ultimate Persona, can be fused upon completion of the Judgment Social Link but doesn't appear in the final battle unless fused from Orpheus and Thanatos beforehand. In subsequent games, the ultimate Persona of the Protagonist first appears at the climax of the True Final Boss, and subsequently cannot be fused until New Game Plus and with a much higher fusion cost. The main narrative runs through to December 31st, at which point the following month (and climax of the story) is unlocked dependent on a decision made by the player. Subsequent games would reach these points a month earlier in the narrative, with the climax of the story coming in the run-up to Christmas before skipping ahead to the end of the school year, and the inclusion of content set in the third semester would be a selling point for the Updated Re-release of those games.

Going Through the Motions
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_4f8a2bbc
comment
Going Through the Motions: Blatantly so. Other than the rare anime-styled scenes, the game's dialogue sequences consist of characters using the same pool of animations throughout the entire game, and only a few scenes receive special animations. Perhaps the most obvious example of this trope comes when the group goes to Yakushima - when Akihiko's wearing a swimsuit, he trades his Coat Over the Shoulder for a towel he carries around in the exact same manner. It's a bit better than most games that do this, though, as each character at least has their own animation pool - characters all have different walk cycles and sit down in different positions, for example.

Odin is pretty unremarkable at first (well, by the standards of a level 63 persona, anyway...) but a bit of grinding gets him Thunder Reign, an "extreme" tier Lightning spell. If that doesn't kill the enemy outright, it's also guaranteed to put them in Shocked status, meaning any subsequent physical attacks against them will critical. Level Odin a little more, and he gets Spell Mastery, which cuts his SP costs in half.

But Thou Must!: Many of the choices (and the story itself, for that matter) run on this principle. The player has no choice but to join SEES, even if the "No" option is selected. Inverted in a minor conversation with an unnamed NPC who wants you to pass on a Christmas present to one of your teammates. Your options in that case are "No", "I refuse", or "Absolutely not". Inverted during the full moon in July. You have to refuse to give in to the Lovers telling you to act on your desires in order to advance the story. If you don't enter Tartarus within the first 10 days of being recruited, Mitsuru will personally make you go with the group automatically.

Ripple-Effect-Proof Memory: Comes up in both endings: In the Good Ending, everyone in SEES (temporarily) forgets about the Dark Hour, and how it effected their relationships with one another, with the exception of the Protagonist and Aigis. In the Bad Ending, Aigis is the only one who remembers the Dark Hour and that the Fall is imminent, as the rest of SEES blissfully go about the end of the school year. Unlike the Good Ending, however, the characters aren’t even vaguely aware that something isn’t right and all of their Character Development is undone.

Lovecraft Lite: Mankind accidentally summons an Eldritch Location from the sea of humanity's collective unconscious that slowly starts consuming the minds of everyone around it and turning them into The Heartless. While the game can be at times depressing, and death is a major theme of it, ultimately the game is optimistic enough that it falls under this rather than an outright Cosmic Horror Story. While it does come at a cost, the bad guy is able to be defeated, no apocalypse comes, and peace is restored to the world.

Orpheus Telos is gained by maxing out all Social Links in one playthrough and is resistant to everything, which makes him extremely valuable against the superboss.

Nietzsche Wannabe: Two notable examples: First, Shuji Ikutsuki, who betrays the team later in the game.

Strega is another group that fits this trope. Although initially they're only out to stop the main character from eliminating the Dark Hour, as the true nature of the Shadow threat is revealed, they embrace the Fall, even going so far as to set up their own Cult to help bring it about.

Critical Failure
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_5667d866
comment
Critical Failure: It's possible that when an attack misses, there's a random chance the flubbed attack will cause the aggressor to trip and be Downed. Rage-inducing when it happens to your party members (and one of the reasons why Accuracy/Evasion buffs are relevant), but hilarious when it happens to enemies. Even the bosses can trip (at a very rare chance, mind).

Even the Girls Want Her: Mitsuru. She has a very obsessive fangirl outside the main character's classroom. In Portable, one of Akihiko's fangirls will mention that any girl seen with Akihiko is fair game for an attack except Mitsuru, as she has special powers.

High School: Gekkoukan High, the game's main setting. Most of the Protagonist's time is spent there, be it as a high school student or as a member of SEES, after it turns into Tartarus during the Dark Hour. On the Female Protagonist route in Portable, a mandatory event early in Summer takes the Female Protagonist to Yasogami High, the setting of Persona 4.

comment
New Kid Stigma: A downplayed example. While not outright ostracized, the protagonist is viewed with a certain amount of envy and jealousy due to having just arrived and yet getting to stay in the same dorm as some of the most popular students in school (in truth, this to make their Wake Up, Go to School & Save the World activities easier). In addition, his aloof, detached air also makes him difficult to approach, something brought up by some of the Social Link characters. In fact, it's even brought up that bad rumours follow him around because he doesn't socialise and has been seen wandering around seedier parts of town.

Enemy Scan: One of Mitsuru, then Fuuka's major abilities. Unlike future games to come, their scanning takes two to three turns before fully revealing the target's elemental affinities (and moveset, in Fuuka's case). The scan will not show the bosses' moveset, and Tartarus Guardians completely obscure their scan results.

Police Are Useless: Due to the nature of the Dark Hour, the police aren't able to really do anything. One of them, Officer Kurosawa, does provide weapons to SEES, presumably due to the Kirijo Group's influence, and he actually takes a more active role in assisting both the Group and the Shadow Operatives (what the remnants of SEES become after high school) in Persona 4: Arena.

Adaptation Distillation: In order to compensate for the PSP having weaker hardware than the PS2, some changes were made to the game's presentation style. Cutscenes are no longer rendered in full 3D, but instead use Visual Novel-style static backgrounds and portraits, with non-verbal animations instead being described in narration, and exploring the city has similarly been changed from fully-3D environments to 2D point-and-click maps. Other than that, the core game is mostly the same.

Disc-One Nuke
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_5b81ca8d
comment
Disc-One Nuke: A "Quad elemental" Lilim can easily be fused by level 8, able to last for many times what its strength suggests. A similar combination for a quad elemental Pale Rider also exists and is obtainable by the time Lilim is outdated. A similar recipe exists to create a 4-element Yomotsu Shikome a level 9 Hermit persona. It's slightly better than Lilim because Shikome has no weakness and is resistant to Darkness/Mudo. Completing Elizabeth/Theodore's requests promptly in Portable will reward you with weapons and armor that far outstrip anything you're going to get anytime soon outside of rare chest rewards. Getsu-Ei is a medium-strength Slash attack that hits harder on a full moon. You can access it around June to July, and it serves as a very good source of damage for the Full Moon Shadows until you start finding heavy-duty skills.

Education Mama: Maiko's mother. Her father is aware that Maiko's skipping piano lessons but doesn't seem to mind. Part of the reason Fuuka joined SEES is to escape her parents. They put academic pressure on her thanks to being mechanics in a family full of doctors. Note, this is the most mundane of the SEES backstories.

Central Theme
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_5ce7dbb9
comment
Central Theme: Memento Mori, a Latin phrase meaning "remember you'll die some day," is a recurring theme that appears again and again throughout the story. Almost all of the main cast and no few supporting characters have had some kind of personal experience with death, often in the form of dead parents or family members. The theme may also overlap with Sacrifice, as the three characters who died purposely gave up their lives protecting someone. Shinjiro takes a bullet for Ken partway through the game to redeem himself for accidentally killing Ken's mother. Chidori uses her persona's power to "emit life" and gives Junpei her life to revive him from a gunshot wound to the chest. She dies in the process. And finally the Protagonist makes a Heroic Sacrifice at the end to prevent the world from ending. Death as pertaining to the thirteenth Arcana, Death. Meaning, spiritual death more than physical. The story has to do with the various ways, big and small, it may become difficult for a person to want to keep on living. This factors in to not just the main story, but every single social link, even if some of the "reasons to desire death" may seem pretty trivial. The game's message is that those reasons are still important, and a person needs to confront and overcome them (And friendship helps a great deal with this). Depression. Some symptoms of the Apathy Syndrome include the inability to move, feed, or take care of one's self, similar to the instances of a clinically depressed person who forgets the value of personal hygiene. During the later parts of the game, a cult worshiping Nyx and eager for the coming of The Fall signifies a depressed person's desire for death, and/or the lack of will to live. With regards to the desire for death, depression would ultimately lead to a person's suicide if he/she is left unchecked. In this game, the act of summoning a Persona is similar to a suicidal action - you, shooting yourself in the head.

Triumphant Reprise: The dorm theme in the final month of the game changes to a remix of "Living with Determination". While the main piano melody remains unchanged, the addition of an upbeat drumbeat gives the song a fitting climactic feel, representing the party's resolve to avert the upcoming apocalypse. The main theme, "Burn My Dread", gets a hip-hop remix that was first heard in the game's opening cutscene for the post-final boss sequence.

Conveniently an Orphan: Almost every single person in SEES is missing at least one parent with Fuuka as the only apparent exception. Makes living together in a dorm and fighting Shadows easier. In several cases (notably those of Ken and the protagonist) the loss of their parents is directly linked to the same Dark Hour-related incidents and issues that get them involved in the plot.

Takes One to Kill One: During a flashback in "The Answer", when a young Mitsuru and her father's entourage first entered Tartarus, one of officers note Shadows are completely unaffected by conventional weapons. However, mundane weapons in the hands of Persona users are capable of harming Shadows just fine. It is subsequently explained by Metis that Personas operate under the same powers and laws as Shadows, and it extends to any weapon a Persona user has at hand.

comment
Face of a Thug: Takeharu Kirijo is a grim looking guy with an eyepatch and clearly makes some people like Junpei uneasy, but he's actually a pretty good guy. The first thing we see him talk about is lecturing Mitsuru on not being forthcoming with the other members of SEES regarding Tartarus, telling her that nothing about the situation is her fault and urging her to be more open and friendly with the group in general. The next thing he does is give them a lot of exposition himself with special attention paid to Yukari since her father was a researcher for the company.

The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_6041e4f4
comment
The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard: Enemies will never run out of Spirit Points, no matter how many magical skills they use. This was actually changed for the FES version and in Persona 4, where enemies also have a finite amount of SP. When performing an Enemy Scan, the computer cheats in your favour. Although the scan results will refuse to show elemental affinities of Tartarus bosses, your party members (while AI controlled) will be secretly informed of what is effective and act accordingly. In The Answer, during the two-on-two coliseum battles late into the game, your party members will use skills they ordinarily have no access to. Most egregious with Yukari Takeba, who uses Primal Force of all things, one of the strongest physical attacks in the game.

Soft Reboot: This game can be considered this to the Persona series, being released 6 years after the previous entry in the franchise and with a new director and writer. Persona 3 was the game that introduced many of the elements that the series would continue to use going forward; the protagonist being a wildcard and assigned the Fool Arcana, Igor being the in charge of the Velvet Room, Social Links, and emphasis on the day-today school life of the protagonists. In-Universe, the first three games of the series have gotten the occasional Easter egg or reference, but 3 is effectively the "first" game in the modern Persona universe.

Averted, as per MegaTen fare; though some enemies (and all bosses) are immune or resistant to some, bad status effect skills and instant death spells are completely viable. A VERY lethal combination is a Fear inducing skill followed by Ghastly Wail, which will NEVER miss. Ever. Bonus points if you first use a skill that increases suceptibility to status effects. This makes boss encounters like Fortune & Strength even more anticlimax than they already are...

Nintendo Hard: Hard Mode, which augments the enemies, gives them a random chance to go first when they shouldn't, and makes it near impossible to run. With the vastly increased damage and elemental weakness system, it's entirely possible for a higher level party to die before they can move if they are ambushed. Doubly so for Persona 3: FES: The Answer, which buffs various enemies and locks you out of the Persona Compendium, which means you cannot re-summon older Persona on demand to match enemies you are fighting. That being said, in The Answer, Personas level up faster than in The Journey.

New Game Plus: You can carry over some things into a new run after completing the game, such as your level, yen, and Persona Compendium. In Portable, this is averted with the new Maniac difficulty, which does not allow you to carry over anything from a previous playthrough.

Armor Is Useless: Armor is best used for its additional effects (like stat bonuses) than its defense because your Persona's endurance stats and elemental resistances play a much larger role.

Rage Against the Mentor: Yukari calls out Mitsuru at one SEES meeting for hiding information about the Shadow threat from them. Mitsuru's reasoning: "It never seemed relevant." That and Mitsuru was still traumatized from being a guinea pig in the events that led to the present crisis. Junpei goes into a period of this after the main character leads several successful missions.

Pink Girl, Blue Boy: Junpei and Yukari invoke this in their designs, with the duo always having at least one item of clothing in the appropriate color. The PSP rerelease changes all of the blue menus to pink for the female protagonist. This extends to their respective personalities and, more obviously, their color schemes—the male protagonist has improbable blue hair, while the female protagonist has improbable red eyes.

"When the Moon Reaches for the Stars", the standard Port Island theme, is a happy-sounding J-pop with lyrics about a person who Cannot Spit It Out to a crush and feels incredibly depressed about it. It doesn't help that Yumi Kawamura's extremely thick accent makes the English lyrics hard to make out.

 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_6602cad
comment
Permanently Missable Content: Certain personas need key items to be accessed. Unfortunately, you must complete Elizabeth's requests for these items. While going on a date with Elizabeth seems like an easy request, forgetting to claim your reward by the deadline not only ensures that you will not get that key item, but also ensures that you will not be able to complete any more of the Elizabeth Date quests. Ouch. There goes your 100% completion. The Female protagonist has quite a few of these concerning Social Links, resulting in some very Guide Dang It! moments. Chief among them is Shinjiro's small window of availability and the fact that you can't not hang out with Ryoji whenever he's available or invites you out, under penalty of not being able to complete his S. Link. Also, if you don't speak directly to Rio and Saori before certain rank ups, you will never be able to start Tower and Devil. Another request: "I'd Like to Sip Oden Juice". The drink-loving girl at school has it, but she'll only give it to you in exchange for a "rare drink". What she means is one of the drinks only available in Kyoto, and you're only in Kyoto at one point in the game. Not that hard if you know what to do, but if you don't, it's Permanently missable. (Annoyingly, the game taunts you by giving the quest no deadline, when it really does have one) Forgetting to initiate the Temperance S. Link before the third Full Moon will render it unavailable for the rest of the current playthrough. In Portable, two S. Link characters can end up lost in Tartarus. The Hierophant and the Hanged Man S. Links can be lost (thus freezing their progresses entirely) in the current save file if the player does not rescue the corresponding characters before the next respective Full Moon. If the S. Link(s) reached MAX prior to losing them, the corresponding characters themselves will not show up in the epilogue unlike most other maxed out S. Links.

Starts with a Suicide: Subverted in two ways. Yukari is seen brandishing a gun to her head and is apparently trying to kill herself in the opening scene, but drops it and starts crying when she's unable to go through with it. Subverted again when it's later learned it was an Evoker and not a real gun, and that she was trying to summon her Persona, which she couldn't go through with out of fear.

Signature Move: There are spells and abilities that are exclusive to specific Personae, a majority of which cannot be passed through Fusion: Alice has her regularly possessing the destructive "Die For Me!" attack. She summons armies of corrupted Wonderland soldiers and has them skewering her enemies from the sky. Its counter-part is the "Samsara" which is exclusive to Daisoujou. Surt, the fire giant from Norse Mythology has his signature Fire spell Ragnarok. Sometimes, Loki, Thor and Odin join in the fun with Niflheim, Thunder Reign and Panta Rhei. Mara and "Maralagidyne", a "Severe"-tier Fire spell that targets all enemies, is a play on its name, and is infamous for its squicky animation.

Shadow activity outside Tartarus is connected to the waxing and waning of the Moon; specifically, the most plot-relevant enemy Shadows appear on nights with full moons. Also, certain Persona attacks are more effective on New and Full Moons. And after the battle with Nyx Avatar, the Moon itself opens up to reveal that, in the Dark Hour at least, the Moon IS Nyx.

Improbable Weapon User: For every weapon type, there are one or two gag weapons, all of them silly, yet most of them are rather powerful. The highlights include a toy bow with suction cup arrows, a baseball bat with nails (used as a two-handed sword), a bus stop sign (used as a hammer), umbrellas (used like Mitsuru's rapiers), a steel pipe (used as a one-handed sword), some kitchen knives, a broom (used as a spear), a bone (for Koromaru), a Rocket Punch (for Aigis), Jack Frost plush toys (used as boxing gloves, of all things), and in the PSP version, there are lacrosse sticks and hockey sticks for the female protagonist. The bus stop sign, which only Shinjiro can use (at least in the PSP version) is the most famous one; it reappears in Persona 4 and makes some funny cameos in a CD drama and a light novel, where Shinjiro actually wields it.

On the subject of combat, the ability to split the party up to explore a floor. Your teammates didn't appear on the map just for decoration, you can split the team up to explore the dungeon faster, but this means they'll have to fight alone if they encounter a Shadow. In practice this is rarely worth it (partially because, thanks to PS2 memory limits, dungeon floors never get that big) and by and large people just explored as a team. Later games kept teammates on the field but dropped the split-up function.

Driven to Suicide
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_6d332aea
comment
Driven to Suicide: The method of summoning Personas by firing a remarkably-realistic gun replica at one's own head is not at all subtle in its symbolism of teen suicide. Judging by the way the user's head jerks back when they fire the Evoker, along with Yukari breaking down and being unable to pull the trigger in the opening, it's obvious the Evokers a bit more than just toy guns. It's implied that the party are all at least just a bit suicidal (at least, before Character Development helps them over some of their issues), and in the case of poor Ken, it's all but explicitly stated. By the end of the game, the only actual suicide that occurs is an injured Jin blowing himself up when Shadows begin attacking him.

Balance Buff
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_6e1e24a
comment
Balance Buff: Certain characters were changed between versions: In FES (and retaining in Portable), Junpei was changed to learn Agi and Re Patra slightly later, Rakukaja several levels earlier (which remove the original 11 level gap between Re Patra and Rakukaja, replacing it with a smaller gap between Rakukaja and Assault Dive), learning Counter a few levels before Counterattack, and replacing largely redundant Deathbound with Brave Blade, at the cost of pushing Marakukaja back a few levels. Curiously, The Answer still has Junpei learn Deathbound, rather than Brave Blade, and also has him learn Marakukaja even earlier than in the original game, and full 10 levels earlier than in The Journey The Answer has Koromaru start with Counter (which he never had in The Journey) and Mudoon (in The Journey he only learns it on level 56 - which means he gets it a full 25 levels earlier!), learning Mamudoon at level 49 (compared to The Journey's 71), and replacing not particularly useful Evil Touch/Evil Smile with (Ma-)Sukukaja, at the cost of skipping over Counterstrike for some reason, and losing Fire Break completely. Portable backports the Evil Touch/Evil Smile to (Ma-)Sukukaja change, and also replaces Fire Break with Mudo Boost. Also in The Answer, Ken is the only character who joins at lower level than he did in The Journey, but has the same starting skills, which means he starts with medium level skills when everyone else needs a few levels to get there. He also learns just about every skill aside from Mediarama and Spear Master at lower level. In Portable, Ken now starts with Diarama, learns Mediarama at the level he originally learned Diarama, learns Spear Master at the level he originally learned Hama Boost, and finally learns Primal Force at the level he originally learned Spear Master. And yes, it means Hama Boost is gone, which means his Hama spells became even less reliable than they were in prior versions.

Another request: "I'd Like to Sip Oden Juice". The drink-loving girl at school has it, but she'll only give it to you in exchange for a "rare drink". What she means is one of the drinks only available in Kyoto, and you're only in Kyoto at one point in the game. Not that hard if you know what to do, but if you don't, it's Permanently missable. (Annoyingly, the game taunts you by giving the quest no deadline, when it really does have one)

Marathon Boss: The final boss, which consists of 13 "forms" (or, more accurately, 13 distinct attack patterns pertaining to a particular Arcanum, each with its own HP bar) with no breaks. 14, if you count the very first (Fool), but it doesn't attack you while in that one.

Disney Death: Chidori, as of FES. Following her hospitalisation by SEES, the player has the opportunity to speak to Junpei at the Dorms on four separate days and encourage him to not give up on his relationship with Chidori. Doing so triggers a cutscene during December, where Mitsuru speaks to an unknown party over the phone, and is informed that Chidori's corpse has been transmogrifying into a coffin during the Dark Hour; Chidori finally ressucitates in mid-January, albeit without her memories of the Dark Hour.

comment
The special function given to Aigis and her 'sisters' makes them move twice as fast, do more damage, and leaves them overheated and immobile afterwards, and is called Orgia Mode. (That might seem like a bit of a stretch, but with a guy like Ikutsuki on the team, you can never be too sure.) The Orgia Mode can cause unintentional surprised looks on Spanish player's faces. (The game was never translated to Spanish, it was released as is).

Calling Your Attacks
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_71bd62b9
comment
Calling Your Attacks: An interesting version: the protagonists (particularly the Main Character) will sometimes call the names of their Personas (i.e. Orpheus, Io, etc.) before summoning them but the actual attack names (like Bufu or Bash) are never once called. Discussed in-game, as you're told that it takes a very high level of concentration to summon a persona, so it's likely names are called to maintain focus. Everyone (but Koromaru, for obvious reasons) has multiple lines to choose from before summoning.

Non-Action Protagonist: Fuuka Yamagishi, the Mission Control of Persona 3, is one of these. Physically speaking, while the other members of S.E.E.S. are physically adept at combating Shadows, Fuuka is a shy, grungy nerdy girl who is introduced by being a bullying victim of a girl posse. Then she ends up in Tartarus by accident, and shortly after summoning her Persona for the first time while surviving ten hours in the vitality-sapping dungeon, she allows you to see the strengths and weaknesses of the Boss Shadows that just wiped the floor with two of your allies. Even though her Persona is not capable of combat, she's still a critical ally to S.E.E.S.'s efforts in Tartarus and a valuable member of the team.

Trauma Conga Line: Think of Shinjiro, about what happened to him. And every single thing that he's gone through is actually very serious and manages to totally avoid going overboard, which is what makes it so incredibly awful. SEES in general gets hit with this very hard. Especially later in the game, starting in October and ending in the Answer.

Color-Coded for Your Convenience: Shadows encountered in the floors of Tartarus come in three colors: Black for the normal enemies of the current block, Purple for the Elite Mooks which are noticeably stronger than the normal enemies for the current block, and Yellow for enemies that drop a lot of Yen, or rare materials. A large number of enemies in the early parts of the game will make it painfully obvious what they're weak to by dressing themselves in the opposite motif, i.e. a white-colored enemy is weak to darkness, and a red-colored enemy will be weak to ice. Somewhat averted in the later dungeons, particularly in the topmost block where all enemies will be white / chrome-plated.

Arc Words
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_7464705c
comment
Memento Mori, a Latin phrase meaning "remember you'll die some day," is a recurring theme that appears again and again throughout the story. Almost all of the main cast and no few supporting characters have had some kind of personal experience with death, often in the form of dead parents or family members. The theme may also overlap with Sacrifice, as the three characters who died purposely gave up their lives protecting someone. Shinjiro takes a bullet for Ken partway through the game to redeem himself for accidentally killing Ken's mother. Chidori uses her persona's power to "emit life" and gives Junpei her life to revive him from a gunshot wound to the chest. She dies in the process. And finally the Protagonist makes a Heroic Sacrifice at the end to prevent the world from ending.

Put on a Bus: Most of your Social Links end with this. Some of them come back during the last few days, though. The sports club student, Kazushi withdraws from the championship to have his failing knee operated on. The culture club student, Keisuke leaves the club to study to be a doctor. The girl at the shrine, Maiko moves away with her mother after her parents divorce. The transfer student, Bebe moves back to France, albeit by choice. The businessman, Tanaka doesn't go anywhere, but straight up tells the protagonist to stop hanging out with him. Sure enough, he quits appearing on the overworld when you complete his link. The unusual monk, Mutatsu quits hanging at the night club to go find his family and apologize for his actions. The rival athlete, Mamoru moves away and takes a factory job to support his family, since his father is dead and his mother is unable to work. The gourmet king, Nozomi leaves to become a food critic. The dying young man, Akinari mysteriously fades from existance. It is later revealed that he died later in the link. The online game player, "Maya" logs off of Innocent Sin Online for good before the servers shut down. Subverted because it's later revealed that she was the protagonist's teacher Ms. Toriumi all along. The mysterious boy, Pharos fades away. He isn't gone for long though because he re-appears soon afterwards as Ryoji Mochizuki, who is in-turn revealed to be the Appriser of Nyx.

Arbitrary Gun Power: Aigis uses her gattling fingers, hand cannon, or a rifle in battle, at which the said weapon types will deal almost equivalent amounts of damage as the melee weapons, gloves, or swords at the same level. For plot-related purposes, Takaya's revolver is enough to send Shinjiro and Junpei at death's door. Yet during his actual boss fight, the revolver will only take a little amount of your HP.

Schrödinger's Gun: The player has the choice of multiple sports clubs to join at the beginning of the school year - swimming, track, or kendo on the Male route, and volleyball or tennis on the Female route. The focus of the sports-related Social Links (Both Chariot and the Male's Strength) will always be in the same club no matter what. The player can join either music, photo, or art club later on in the year. Both Fuuka and Keisuke, the subject of the Fortune Social Link, will always be in the same club the player joins. In a New Game+ ending on Portable, if the player romanced at least one SEES member during the course of the game, they may choose one of them to meet the protagonist on the school roof during the ending, even though logically there should be no way to influence who is arriving. More specifically, the game narrates that the protagonist hears someone's voice and asks the player to identify whose it is.

The Lethal Connotation of Guns and Others: Takaya's magnum revolver. Despite the protagonists being shocked, stabbed, burned, frozen, and pierced, one shot from his gun kills both Shinjiro and Junpei, only one of whom gets better, though the former can be saved by a Pocket Protector in Persona 3 Portable if his Social Link is maxed out. Granted, it is a high-powered magnum, but still. Gameplay and Story Segregation is at play here, too. When you fight him, his magnum doesn't do remarkable numbers.

From Bad to Worse: Cases of Apathy Syndrome continue to worsen throughout the storyline even with S.E.E.S giving the spread of the disease a temporary reprieve by vanquishing each Full Moon Shadow. Eventually, even that stops working, because Ikutski had been manipulating them all into targeting the Shadows to begin with. All S.E.E.S has been doing until now is unknowingly setting the stage for Nyx's summoning, and Apathy Syndrome cases skyrocket after the last Full Moon Shadow is defeated, which consequently dooms everyone to Nyx's arrival.

Despite the effectiveness of Healing Hands Dia spells, there are clear limits on the availability of the stronger healing spells, both in gameplay and in story. In the first month of the game Mitsuru doesn't ask Yukari to heal Akihiko's injuries which confine him to a hospital for some time, which makes sense as Yukari only has access to starter healing skills at that point.

Let Us Never Speak of This Again: When Yukari first meets the protagonist when the Dark Hour was active, she mistook him for an enemy shadow and nearly attacked him, only stopping when Mitsuru intervened and cleared things between them. The next day after school, she tells the protagonist to never speak about what happened the night before to anyone else. Junpei, having overheard without being aware of the context, quickly assumes something else happened between them. During the Shirakawa Boulevard incident, both Yukari and the protagonist get enthralled by the Lovers shadow, resulting in both of them getting trapped in a compromising position with Yukari wearing nothing but a Modesty Towel. After snapping out of it, Yukari warns the protagonist to never speak of the incident to anyone. The incident remains a sore spot for her even into November, where she stomps on Ryoji's foot after he offers to take her out on a date at Shirakawa Boulevard.

Crutch Character: Ken in The Answer, thanks to starting with "medium" level skills Zionga and Cruel Attack, as well as learning Diarama relatively quickly, when every other character bar Metis starts with "low" level. Unfortunately, he still has the same Master of None problems he had in The Journey.

Fetch Quest: Most of Elizabeth's requests fall under this category. She will either request a specific item that you will need to ask someone in the dorm for on a specific date, a specific item that will be obtainable somewhere in the world, or X number of an item dropped by specific enemies found within Tartarus - and they won't drop the item unless the quest is active.

Virtual Paper Doll: You can purchase (for ludicrously high prices, mind) or find some special outfits that will change a character's outfit in battle. For both genders, they include each character's summer and winter casual outfits, and swimsuits for whoever went on the Yakushima trip (Aigis instead has her iconic blue sundress). For the boys, they get a Shirt of Chivalry (clothing inspired by Japanese peasant wear) with a different kanji on the back derived from each guy's personality, and for the girls, all of them get maid outfits, and Yukari and Mitsuru get high-cut armor (renamed "Battle Panties" in the PSP version), which looks like something you'd find in the closet of the love hotel from the July full moon mission. The Portable version also adds butler suits for the boys, Santa dresses for the girls, and if you're playing as the female protagonist, she can also wear the Battle Panties.

Self-Damaging Attack Backfire: Rarely, when going for a regular attack, there is a chance of the attacker overshooting their attack and stumbling, which leaves them in the same state as if their weakness had been attacked - and in the case the shadows, open to an all-out attack. Ranged weapons won't cause this, giving them a small extra benefit.

comment
Easy Level Trick: The Strength and Fortune boss fight is complicated by Fortune's roulette wheel which can benefit either side depending on the result. If you can manipulate it to inflict Fear on the enemy side, you can instantly kill them with a use of Ghastly Wail. You're unlikely to have a Persona that can do that on a fresh playthrough, but it can dramatically shorten the Vision Quest rematch in Portable.

Bad Moon Rising: Shadow activity outside Tartarus is connected to the waxing and waning of the Moon; specifically, the most plot-relevant enemy Shadows appear on nights with full moons. Also, certain Persona attacks are more effective on New and Full Moons. And after the battle with Nyx Avatar, the Moon itself opens up to reveal that, in the Dark Hour at least, the Moon IS Nyx. The names of several locations and characters also include references to the moon or moonlight. This never means anything good.

The Logical Weakness of a Persona user is that when they are not focused enough to evoke and maintain the presence of their Personas to protect themselves, they are no different from a normal human. Thus, it is no surprise gunfire can easily kill one in cutscenes when they would have normally shrugged it off in battles.

Immunity Disability: One of the reasons why fighting the Optional Boss is hard and tedious. You can at most resist her attacks.

This is an exception however, as other times being immune will greatly help you throughout the game.

Ragtag Bunch of Misfits: We've got a New Transfer Student, a School Idol, the Class Clown, the Big Man on Campus, the Ojou, a Techno Wizard, a Robot Girl, an Intellectual Animal, an Adorably Precocious Child, and finally, a Jerk with a Heart of Gold. All of them were brought together for the purpose of defeating blob monsters with the physical manifestations of their psyches.

Stalker with a Crush
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_8b68d9a7
comment
Stalker with a Crush Early in the game, Aigis — for reasons she doesn't fully understand herself — seems to have an obsession with the main character, taking it to the point that she actually breaks into his dorm room to monitor him. We later find out that it's because ten years ago she sealed away the Cosmic Horror's herald inside his body. Her memories of the event were corrupted, which is why she can't explain her desire to be near him. There's an entertaining mini-saga that unfolds between two NPCs: at the start of the year, a girl is stalking a guy she has a massive crush on and slowly becomes repulsed by him. But while she's doing this, he's slowly falling in love with her. Within a month or two, he's the one stalking her. He finally asks her out at the end, gets turned down, and in the epilogue she's back to stalking him while he's not interested.

Wham Episode: The full moons towards the end of 2009 carry many big revelations with them. On October 4th, Ken confronts Shinji over the death of his mother, and as Strega intervenes, Shinji dies taking a bullet for Ken. On November 4th, you find out the Dark Hour hasn't gone away despite defeating all the Full Moon Shadows, and Ikutsuki's been playing all of S.E.E.S. to bring about The Fall. On December 2nd, you learn that Ryoji is the embodiment of the Death Arcana Shadow that had been sealed away within the protagonist, and was involved with the death of the protagonist's parents ten years ago.

Art Shift
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_912b24c4
comment
Art Shift: A series-wide example. This is not only the first Persona game where Shigenori Soejima designed the characters and setting, but it's also his first doing this job for any of the Shin Megami Tensei spinoff games, as SMT's main artist, Kazuma Kaneko, provided the art for the first three games. Soejima did work on earlier projects, but mainly as a debugger, and he illustrated the in-game character portraits for the Persona 2 duology. The end result is a switch from the harsher, slightly surrealist aesthetic that permeates Persona's parent series and other spinoffs into something that's softer and more anime-like with a reliance on either flat or blurry colors to portray a certain mood. The additional character portraits included in Portable are drawn in the noticeably smoother style of the portraits in Persona 4, rather than the more sketch-based portraits included in the original Persona 3.

Last Disc Magic: Messiah, the ultimate form of the Judgement Arcana, and one of the last Personae you can obtain due to its incredibly high base level. It's about as strong as you'd expect. Orpheus Telos, a Persona added to FES and Portable, is only able to be fused once you have completed every Social Link on a single playthrough. The "severe damage" forms of the elemental spells, only available from high-level personae that mostly require you to finish a social link to unlock. All except the fire spell are single-target only, but by that point you should have the SP to spend quite comfortably.

 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_92a1fa1b
comment
Damage-Sponge Boss: Tartarus bosses have a very simplistic moveset, and if they come alone (as opposed to a group of three), they have incredible HP and defenses to make up for lower numbers. The Vision Quest rematches with the Full Moon Bosses don't really change up their mechanics too much aside from bigger numbers across the board, and some of them turn into wars of attrition this way. Standout examples are the Hermit, which has 16,000 HP and also uses Spirit Drain to sap away your ability to keep up the attrition game, and the Hanged Man, who has 18,000 HP and has phases where you can't even hit it.

Still played straight thanks to your teammates using said spells at the worst possible times. Even if the spells aren't useless, they're tremendously situational. The straightest example is Yukari keeping Charmdi the entire game. A team member's skill slot being permanently taken by a single-target status heal that only works for one status is obviously a bad idea. On the useful side, Charm is probably the single most devastating status you can have and when it's a threat you will be glad it's there.

Take a Third Option: Aigis's decision in the PC arena battles in The Answer. Yukari and Mitsuru want to use the time key to go back and see the Main Character again, Akihiko and Ken want to respect the decisions the main character made, and Junpei and Koromaru want to beat the crap out of everyone until they listen to reason. Aigis takes a fourth option — to watch the miracle being performed so they can figure out what, exactly, the Main Character knew when he made his sacrifice.

And an interesting variation: when the Appriser of Death realizes who he really is and what he will cause, and shares this information with his friends —friends with whom he had eaten ramen with, peeped on girls with, attended classes with, and enjoyed hot baths with at an onsen during a school trip. It hits them all pretty hard with the implications of all the time they've spent together. And even then, although he can willingly change back and forth into his true form, he will still sit quietly and converse with his friends about the ultimate outcome.

 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_963086ce
comment
Damn You, Muscle Memory!: Closer to just the "memory" part, but players that first played the female route blind after getting used to FES (or just the male route in general) have been reported to assume Yukari's S. Link would start after the Yakushima trip, when she is actually available starting in April (which means early-game) and without any special requirements in this case, causing potentially wasted time slots. Though Portable in general rearranged S. Link schedules for existing characters (resulting in new fan guides), Yukari stands out compared to other female party member links due to the massive difference between male and female routes. The 1.0.1 update for the remastered Portable reduces the extra button press needed to access the submenu while exploring Tartarus, so just a single button press is needed. Expect to accidentally pick a command when opening it in this version.

Early on, Akihiko asks you and Junpei to meet him at the police station...while surrounded by a group of (according to Junpei) very attractive girls. Humourously, Akihiko completely ignores them for the whole event, implying that he's used to this trope and even finds it rather annoying. The Female Protagonist's Social Link with him deconstructs the trope - while Akihiko may find a lot of girls who are attracted to him, it's been a long time since he's found anyone who has affection for him.

Took a Level in Badass: Level 6 Courage bestows upon you, quite literally, the title of Badass.

This upgrade is also reflected in gameplay as their resistance upgrades into an immunity and they begin learning stronger skills in the higher levels.

Early in the game, players can find a set of female-only armor called the High Cut Armor (renamed to Battle Panties in the PSP re-release). It consists of shoulder-length gloves, thigh-high boots and... not much else, yet it has a higher defense stat than most armor at the time you get it. The female protagonist, Mitsuru, and Yukari can equip it, though the latter two are very reluctant to do so. Male party members are visibly shaken when the female protagonist tries to talk to them while wearing it. If the male party member happens to be her lover, they will get angry at her for wearing that outfit in public (namely around the other party members).

Let Them Die Happy: Essentially the motivation behind Ryoji's request to kill him — doing so would erase everyone's memories of the Dark Hour and their knowledge of their own doom.

Interface Spoiler
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_9cb3e22e
comment
Interface Spoiler: Played straight at times and averted at others. There's a First-Episode Twist in that the full moon counter is visible in the corner of the screen from the very beginning, even before the full moon has any significance whatsoever. It's also easy to get suspicious of the game being almost over on two counts when you beat the last full moon Shadow. First, you still don't have a maxed Fool link (at Rank 6 before the fight), which is independent of your actions, and second, the aftermath of Shinjiro's death has each member of SEES beginning to find their resolve and gain their Ultimate Personas. When you face the November full moon Shadow, only Akihiko, Ken, and Fuuka have them; in fact, if you talk to Aigis one night after Fuuka's transforms, she'll even mention that more transformations are on the way. This can also be spoiled even earlier if the player is the type to clear every request as soon as it is available, as unlocking request #47 directly spoils that there is more to Tartarus despite the game trying to trick players that Tziah, the highest block at the time, has a definitive end. On the other hand, the game goes out of its way to avert this by adding useless information to the interface in order to make it consistent. Fuuka and her Persona have a full set of battle stats even though she never enters battle. Similarly, Shinjiro's Persona has a full set of skills he can learn as he levels, even though he'll die before learning most of them unless the player goes out of their way to level-grind him during the month of September. Another aversion comes in hiding the true length of the game by the amount of learned skills. For cast members, you might underestimate how far they'll meaningfully progress but you later unlock the second form of the characters' personas, which opens spells further than they would otherwise have learned. A Double Subversion comes in when the game attempts to hide how long the game is playable. Normally, a player would expect the game to go through every day up until the end of the game, but this is not the case. It has really random and useless crap in the calendar that barely has any kind of significance used in the game other than as special holidays, taking exams, and doing special stuff with friends/social links/what have you. Additionally, the month of January is the last month fully playable if on the Good End. However, the game skips to March 3 in both endings and plays until March 5 (March 4 is only playable in the Good End), which is significant since this is before the Graduation Reception, a diverging point in both the Bad End and Good End.

Taking the Bullet: Shinjiro literally takes a bullet for Ken, after he had already been shot once. By a high caliber round, at that. In Portable, after reaching certain level of Social Link with SEES, there is a chance that one of your teammates will take damage from attack that would kill the MC. Since losing the leader means Game Over, it's pretty helpful.

American Kirby Is Hardcore: In an inversion, the American box art features whited-out silhouettes of the Protagonist, Junpei and Yukari over a blue and grey backdrop; The Japanese box art depicts the Protagonist summoning Thanatos, whilst the European box art for Persona 3 features portraits of the Protagonist, Junpei, Mitsuru and Akihiko flanked by a pair of tarot cards with Tartarus ominously in the background, over a black backdrop. Zig-zagged with the release of Persona 3 FES - The Japan exclusive Append Edition features the Protagonist surrounded by a number of his school friends and Koromaru, whilst the American box art recycles the moodier design used on the original release but replacing the three silhouettes with one of Aigis. Comparatively, the Japanese box art for the full release of FES features S.E.E.S lined up on one side of the box, facing off with their respective Personas on the opposite side.

The words that flash up on the screen during the opening heavily imply that the main character will die by the end of the game. In addition, there is a fair bit of Foreshadowing of the connection between the protagonist, Pharos and Ryoji, shows some vague imagery of Shinjiro's and Ikutsuki's deaths, and the lyrics of the theme song hint at the main character's death, with references to a "ticking clock".

Time Travel: Prominently featured in Persona 3: FES, with numerous iterations. Intangible Time Travel: Most of the "Doors of Time" only allow the party to view the event in question without being able to interact with it. Portal to the Past: One of the "Doors of Time" leads to a past version of Paulownia Mall, allowing the team to buy supplies. Temporal Paradox: At one point late in the game, Junpei voices the worry that by traveling back in time to see the Main Character one more time, they'll undo their defeat of Nyx in the previous time.

Continuity Nod

comment
Continuity Nod: Quite a few to the previous games. Their presence would normally lead one to assume they're all in the same continuity, but a number of differences has lead to no little confusion among the fanbase as to whether 3 and its successors are in the same continuity as the first three games, set in an Alternate Continuity, or represent a Continuity Reboot. However, according to this surprisingly obscure interview with Persona 4's staff, the games do all take place in the same world. The Kirijo Group used to be part of the Nanjo Group from Persona and 2. Igor and the Velvet Room appear once again, Igor with an identical appearance to his other appearances and in the same role, and the Velvet Room still blue as always, although its appearance has changed from the previous installments (and would continue to change in subsequent titles). Characters from Persona 1 and 2 are referred to on the television in the lounge. In the English localization, there are many references to Persona 2 in the aptly named MMORPG Innocent Sin, mostly related to Maya and Tatsuya (in the original Japanese version, the MMO was named Devil Busters and the screen names were Y-Ko and N-Jima). Additionally, a number of characters and locations from Persona 4 cameo in Persona 3 Portable: The power outage which cancels Rise's appearance at Escapade is discussed during the Hermit full moon mission. Yukiko, the town of Inaba, and the Amagi Inn appear in the female protagonist's story, and Chie is mentioned. Kashiwagi, a teacher in Persona 4, appears in the male protagonist's story.

Elite Tweak: With a bit of effort, Lilim can be fused with all four basic elemental spells, making her pretty much the only Persona you'll need to fight with until level 20 or so. Having no elemental weaknesses and a reasonably high magic stat is the icing on the cake. Helel can be this as it is possible to fuse him in such a way that he can cast multi-target elemental spells for no mana, or be completely immune to all types of damage (except Almighty as its unblockable). The methods for doing this however can politely be described as "time consuming and prone to randomness" and impolitely described as "completely insane".

In-Universe Game Clock: Mostly due to your protagonist's regular schedule of Wake Up, Go to School & Save the World. The game announces when the "clock" progresses to the next time of day (or the next day). Feel free to take the monorail back and forth across the city as many times as you want while doing Fetch Quests; it takes no time. But leave your dorm on Sunday, realize right outside the door that you forgot to do something, and try to go back in? The act of walking through the door will take all day, and it'll be evening by the time you make it inside.

comment
Several skills were changed this way between vanilla P3 and FES. Some are minor like upping the SP cost for Samsara and Die for Me! from 35 in vanilla to 40 in FES, but some are more notable: Many physical skills are made weaker to accomodate the reduced cost in the latter version, as the vanilla version is notorious for the absurdly high HP cost for something that ends up inferior to magic skills. The Regenerate passive skills restore less HP per turn in FES, possibly in response to the lowered HP cost for physical skills as noted above. One very notable change, however, is making element Break skills cost far more SP in FES (from 15 in vanilla to 40 in FES), which in this version can easily drain teammate SP if poor matchup or Artificial Stupidity sets in.

Randomly Generated Levels: The game randomly generates most of the non-boss floors of Tartarus, although it follows a few design rules. For instance, floors between a Tartarus Boss and a plot-determined barrier will invariably be smaller than the norm, and the party will usually appear extremely close to the stairs to the next floor (with the small inconvenience that The Reaper will spawn that much faster, too.)

Chekhov's Classroom: Mr. Edogawa, a teacher obsessed with magic explains the significance of the Major Arcana of the tarot about halfway through the game. This becomes at least marginally important when the Final Boss states that Death, the 13th Arcana, represents the end. However, as the teacher explained way back when, Death is merely a change, not the end, and there are another 8 Major Arcana after Death, which allows the protagonist to use the true final arcana, The World, to defeat Nyx.

Colour-Coded Timestop: Most of the "action" in the game takes place during the Dark Hour, a "hidden" hour between midnight and 12:01 accessible only to a select few (including Persona users). During this time, ordinary people are Transmogrified into coffins and unable to detect what goes on. Additionally, technology shuts down completely, unless it's explicitly stated to be enhanced with magic (in Mitsuru's words, special), which includes Aigis, Mitsuru's motorbike and the console banks at the dorm's Command Room. During the Dark Hour, there is a green filter over the world.

Ascended Extra: A variation in the Portable re-release, in that the female protagonist has Social Links with every member of SEES along with the plot-important Ryoji Mochizuki, whereas the male protagonist only has links with SEES' female members (and Aigis isn't even one of them in the original release of the game). As a result, Character Development for the guys is mostly seen or influenced by other characters, with Shinjiro in particular bordering on a Satellite Character because he's only in your party for one in-game month before getting Killed Off for Real. The additional "date" requests also lets the player see more of Elizabeth in the FES re-release.

Instant Death Bullet: Junpei gets shot by Takaya once and dies immediately. He gets better, though. Doubly dubious in that he had no trouble with Chidori stabbing him with axes just five minutes earlier thanks to Gameplay and Story Segregation. Averted by Shinji. It takes two, and even then he still has enough energy to get up and walk a few steps away.

Obfuscating Stupidity: Subverted with Ikutsuki. After The Reveal, it seems that all of his terrible jokes were just an act to throw off suspicion. However, a video of him in FES shows that he still makes those jokes when no one is around, and he finds them genuinely funny.

The numerous soft drinks in this game all have names that play on the names of their Real Life equivalents and also reference popular TV shows, video games, and even gaming conventions. For example, "Cylon Tea," described ingame as coming in 12 different flavors, and the BauerBar keeps you going for 24 hours. Other examples are Ciello Mist (Sierra Mistnote  Which has been discontinued as of 2023.), SoBay (SoBe), and Mad Bull (Red Bull).

During the Shirakawa Boulevard incident, both Yukari and the protagonist get enthralled by the Lovers shadow, resulting in both of them getting trapped in a compromising position with Yukari wearing nothing but a Modesty Towel. After snapping out of it, Yukari warns the protagonist to never speak of the incident to anyone. The incident remains a sore spot for her even into November, where she stomps on Ryoji's foot after he offers to take her out on a date at Shirakawa Boulevard.

Dramatic Irony: During January, the Second Years have meetings with their home room teachers where they discuss their plans for post-graduation, whilst the Third Years take their college entrance exams, all with the knowledge of that world could end at the end of the month. If the player speaks to Mitsuru beforehand or Akihiko afterwards, they both note the absurdity of the situation and Akihiko likens it to sticking a middle finger up at Nyx.

Soundtrack Dissonance: Averted and played straight. During the daytime when the protagonist is exploring Port Island and attending school, the music is very cheery and upbeat J-pop, which is pretty strange for such a serious game. However, when night rolls around and the party heads out to Tartarus or a dungeon, the music becomes significantly darker, more frantic electronic/rap tunes. Completely averted later on, where the happy-sounding exploration music of Port Island, the school, and the dorm are replaced with piano instrumentals for the final month - bleak in the former two's case, triumphant in the latter's.

The final social link event for Aigis in FES doesn't even try to be subtle about what touching her Papillon Heart is supposed to stand in for. For bonus points, the fact that she disables her arms and legs beforehand adds an additional, probably unintentionally creepy dimension to the encounter.

Don't Celebrate Just Yet: Upon defeating all the Shadows that they think are causing the Dark Hour, S.E.E.S. celebrate their believed success. That is, until they notice Ikutski's missing and the Dark Hour hasn't stopped. When they find him, they discover that the Dark Hour was never going to end and he's actually been a Straw Nihilist manipulating S.E.E.S. in his goal to rule the Earth after The Fall, a plan of which would've been pointless from the start as The Fall would kill all of humanity indiscriminately, Ikutski included. Rightfully, the agency calls him out on his insanity.

Be Careful What You Wish For: In the run-up to December 31st, SEES are presented with the choice to let Ryoji live and spend the following month despairing over the coming of the Fall, or kill Ryoji and erase their memories of the Dark Hour. The only member of the team in favor of killing Ryoji is Aigis, who doesn't want to watch her friends suffer. If the player goes along with Aigis' wishes, then she has to watch her friends go about their lives, oblivious to the coming apocalypse whilst she remembers everything and can't do anything to save them.

Loophole Abuse
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_b1dde8fd
comment
Loophole Abuse: In vanilla and FES, teammates will leave Tartarus if they return to the first floor with the main character while having the Tired/Sick condition. However, there is a way of preserving teammate availability the whole night once they get Tired/Sick should the player need to save, heal, swap out teammates, or use the Velvet Room, as long as there are Pre Existing Encounters close to the stairs, close enough to pull this off. The player has to set the teammates to go after enemies (or let them get caught), then once they all engage in battle on-map (but do not let them finish or leave them knocked out), go up the stairs and confirm to leave them behind. Once the player is all alone on the next floor, he may warp back to the first floor and find everyone ready to rejoin. This abuses the fact that all teammates left behind (but not knocked out) will remain available on the first floor (having them knocked out will force them to leave) and the game thinks the player is exploring solo after thatnote When determining whether a teammate leaves or not upon returning to the first floor, the game checks the Condition of the active party only and not anyone on standby, assuming that Tired/Sick party members would not go to Tartarus in the first place according to Mitsuru or Fuuka. The game forgets the possibility of Tired/Sick teammates that were warped back safely to the first floor because of the player confirming to go up stairs while they were still busy battling enemies on-map. Since the player is left exploring alone after that, the game does not have any teammate to check the Condition for., so there are no teammates to comment their need to leave for the night.

So What Do We Do Now?: After defeating the 12 Shadows, the entire group experiences this and cannot be bothered to go to Tartarus for quite some time. This is not due to completion but rather the discovery your entire party was being used by Shuji Ikutsuki to bring The Fall. Mitsuru is gone for almost a month due to the death of her father. Moreover, one of the main themes of The Answer is how the ex-SEES members are going to move on with their lives after the Main Character's Heroic Sacrifice.

Start Screen: The original release featured a shot of a full moon through a blue window pane, behind the Protagonist's silhouette as "The Voice Someone Calls" (The music from the entrance to Tartarus) plays. FES updated this menu by switching from blue to the Sickly Green Glow of the Dark Hour, swapping the Protagonist out for Aigis and incorporating a piano arrangement of "Brand New Days" as the title theme. Portable swapped the title screen out entirely, instead focusing on a shot of Tartarus and a full moon behind a portrait of the Male Protagonist, before swapping to the Female Protagonist after pressing start. Every time the player subsequently returns to the title screen in the same session, the order of the Protagonists swaps.

"Groundhog Day" Loop: In the opening of The Answer, midnight occurs and the date is still March 31st, and it remains that way for the rest of the adventure. Interacting with the TV after each dungeon will show the same news report.

Lost in Translation
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_b7920c43
comment
Lost in Translation: Mitsuru's Gratuitous English is obviously impossible to retain in, well, the English localization. So it was changed to French quips, to non-English speakers' chagrin. Junpei's "oteakezamurai" gag early in the game is one of the Running Gags in the franchise. Cultural barriers and availability make this confusing to players without prior knowledge. English speakers know this better as the "Ace Detective" joke, but this became an issue down to the road like in Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth where the gag is brought up more frequently complete with animated gestures (Junpei raising both arms high as a literal interpretation of the joke). A shop named Shinshoudo Antiques is supposed to foreshadow the relation between the shopkeeper and Tartarus, and not just in terms of weapon fusion and Old Document relevance. In Japanese, Monad Depths is Shinshou Monado, which is of course lost in translation. The Answer has a mistranslation that caused confusion for years. At one point, Junpei mentioned that he hesitated about going back in time to when Chidori died, regardless of whether the player saved her or not in The Journey. In the Japanese version, Junpei does not namedrop them at all and uses aitsu which is a vague way to address "that person." Since the context is that everyone is talking about the MC from The Journey using the similar way of addressing, he is in fact talking about him. It makes sense that he became enthusiastic in Persona 4: Arena Ultimax. In hindsight, the localization made the namedrop stick out like a sore thumb for not connecting to the conversation at all.

The Shirt of Chivalry becomes one in the English version. The characters on the back of each character are fairly descriptive or ironic in Shinjiro's case. The main character's "honourable man," Blood Knight Akihiko's is "fight," Ken's is grudge, Junpei's is color, but more likely "dirty minded", and Shinjiro's is "life."

Demoted to Extra: In Portable, if you choose to play as the heroine, all of the Social Links who are replaced by your party members (plus newcomers Rio and Saori) lose pretty much all of their plot relevance. Kenji, Kaz, Keisuke, and Yuko make bit appearances, Chihiro maintains her bit appearances in Hidetoshi's Social Link, Maya never appears in her online identity (although she still makes appearances as Ms. Toriumi), and Hayase and Nozomi are completely removed.

Mistaken for Masturbating: The video recording of Fuuka, where she's wearing a vibrating stomach trimmer, in her bedroom, in order to get in shape for the Summer Trip. Unfortunately, the settings got stuck on high, leaving her disabled and in an uncontrollable laughing fit. Mitsuru knocks on her bedroom door and Fuuka yells "I'm coming", with the vibrating stomach-trimmer humming in the background. Cue a very awkward Mitsuru who quickly apologizes for bothering her and runs off again post-haste.

Early-Bird Boss: The Rampage Drive on the 14th floor is tough because at the earliest point you can face it, your battle options are limited. You've got only three party members and a limited selection of Personas and Fusion options, while the Rampage Drive is the first boss with no weakness, has resistances to neuter Junpei's offensive capability, and carries a party-wide lightning attack that hits the weakness of Yukari, your party's main healer. Once you've gotten more levels and a wider variety of skills at your fingertips, though, it's significantly easier.

Yakuza: The Kirijo Group, complete with a company-owned High School (that doubled as a Shadow research facility, a (presumably) company-owned hospital capable of holding its patients hostage without raising eyebrows, and access to military-grade weaponry, is either this or a very corrupt and powerful local corporation... And in Japan, there's usually very little to separate the former from the latter. There's also officer Kurosawa's 'connections'... Which appear to have no problem giving a police officer access to lethal weaponry to sell off-the-counter to schoolchildren. It's vaguely implied that his 'connections' are Kirijo pulling strings, too.

Tarot Motifs: Absolutely pervade the game. Each Persona and each Shadow in the game is associated with a particular Arcana. Additionally, the game's protagonist can develop Social Links with other characters; each of these characters is also associated with a particular Arcana—the higher level a particular Social Link is, the more of a boost you'll get when fusing a Persona of that Arcana. The Minor Arcana also appear when dungeon crawling (you can draw cards after battles that have various effects based on the suit) and as Rare Candy items in the Portable rererlease.

Then, in the arena battles, if you die to the other PCs, instead of immediately dying, the other PCs give you a lecture about their decision on what to do with the time machine and then the narrator laments you not being able to find out a different path than the obvious two.

True Companions: As mentioned above. Surprisingly for a Shin Megami Tensei game, the Gekkoukan team is a very pure example of the trope. It's explicitly mentioned when they begin their Fool's Journey as SEES (Specialized Extracurricular Execution Squad) and their determination to fight a Cosmic Horror makes them change their name to Nyx Annihilation Team, empowered by the Judgement Arcana. Though its played with a bit in that unlike the Persona 4 cast, they aren't all best friends with each other. The second years and the third years of the group tend to keep to themselves most of the time and they do fight a fair amount as tension rises. And aside from Yukari and Mitsuru, it seems none of them become best friends by the end. That said, on a professional level they trust each other completely by the end of the game.

Irony: The bad ending is basically your (former) party members discussing the future, eventually deciding to celebrate it with a karaoke session. They're all about to die, along with the rest of the world, and no one knows this. At all. And it's all your fault. Knowing that the Messiah Persona is based from Jesus Christ, it can be ironic to look at the Persona's skills and know that it is immune to Pierce attacks.

Each of the female characters has a maid outfit, given out as rewards by solving a few of the quests Elisabeth offers. All 3 girls also give appropriate responses to being offered a maid outfit - Yukari doesn't like it but will wear it regardless, and Mitsuru seems to contemplate if that makes her an actual servant. Aigis simply states "This is the outfit I've worn at the lab before." Playing the Female Protagonist in Persona 3: Portable makes it possible to dress her up as a Meido as well. In other words, if you do it right you can lead an entire team of maids against The Legions of Hell.

Level-Up at Intimacy 5: the Social Links. You can also screw up your links and reverse the related arcana, meaning it can't be leveled up until you fix it. Screwing up then means you Break it, which is not good.

One-Woman Wail
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_c4b8e2ae
comment
The One-Woman Wail appearing in "Aria of Soul" and "The Battle for Everyone's Soul" is inherited from Persona and Persona 2, where the aria was sung by Igor's assistant Belladonna, and is likely being used in this game as a reference to Nyx's usual MegaTen appearance—an opera diva. Also: "The Battle for Everyone's Soul" is a rock remix of the first half of the first Persona's version of theme. While it uses rock instruments, the rhythm is mostly the same (compare this to this).

Harder Than Hard: Portable added "Maniac" mode, in which enemies do double damage, enemy advantage rates are boosted even further compared to Hard and any benefits from New Game+ are lost as the player starts over from scratch. This is to offset the plethora of Anti-Frustration Features that are added to the same game.

Cutscene Incompetence: Considering relative power levels at the time, it's rather egregious that no one was able to flee or fight back when Ikutsuki orders Aigis to attack the rest of SEES on November 4th, particularly given that it was one vs. six and that on Mitsuru's instruction, SEES all turned up to Tartarus ready for a fight. Tellingly, the anime adaptation alters events and has Mitsuru's father take SEES' equipment upon visiting the dorm to (mistakenly) congratulate them on ending the Dark Hour, and upon SEES' arrival at Tartarus, Ikutsuki reveals that Aigis currently has Mitsuru's father as a hostage in order to justify why no-one could fight back.

Idle Animation: The male protagonist in the PS2 versions will perform several idle animations when standing still for a given period of time, such as stretching his arms to his shoes, will put his hands in his pockets, and then look around, yawn, and stretch. In all versions of the game during battle sequences, the characters will also have idle animations while waiting for their turns, such as Aigis doing her iconic robotic pose.

Elemental Tiers: Bufu and Zio spells have higher MP cost than Agi and Garu spells. They actually have the same power, but Bufu and Zio can inflict Freeze and Shock ailments, respectively, while the other two only deal damage. Persona 4 removed the higher cost for Bufu and Zio, along with the said ailment status effects. Non-Elemental / Physical Specialists: Aigis and Shinjiro strictly use physical attacks, with the latter having the highest physical attack in the party. Aigis mixes hers with stat boosts and a single-target healing spell, whereas the only other spells Shinjiro can learn is one Status Infliction Attack spell, Evil Smile, which is still to assist his physical attacking.

Metal Slime: The "Wealth Hand," the "Treasure Hand," and various other gold-plated "Hand" Shadows, show up in Tartarus as gold shadows that flee the moment they notice you and are notoriously hard to catch. In-battle, they hardly lift a finger but are difficult to kill, and drop valuable items when defeated. Occasionally you can find a floor made of nothing but these, though the Reaper's arrival is cut to a quarter on those floors.

Begin with a Finisher: The strongest Optional Boss periodically casts a Megidolaon that will do 9999 damage to the party in a game where the HP cap is 999. However, if you start the battle breaking one of the unwritten rules, the very first action they'll take is this very One-Hit Kill attack. Even if you use a method to avoid dying to it, the boss will simply keep spamming it until you die.

Spoiler Opening

comment
Spoiler Opening: The words that flash up on the screen during the opening heavily imply that the main character will die by the end of the game. In addition, there is a fair bit of Foreshadowing of the connection between the protagonist, Pharos and Ryoji, shows some vague imagery of Shinjiro's and Ikutsuki's deaths, and the lyrics of the theme song hint at the main character's death, with references to a "ticking clock". The opening of FES shows some sequences of the Tournament Arc of The Answer, and the very last shot of the opening is the protagonist activating the Great Seal at the end of the game. Again in Portable's unique opening. Both protagonists at the end are seen over a coffin and are about to use their evokers and the screen turns red when they shoot. Also some double imagery is seen with regards to October 4th. In one half of the screen Ken is calmly standing but in the other half, he's putting his evoker to his head and Shinjiro can be seen in an escalator behind him. Also in the "rapid montage" the group shot of SEES is sandwiched by the love interests in the group.

Pieces of God: Not obvious at first, but the twelve Full Moon Shadows qualify. Each of the twelve is a fragment of a thirteenth Arcana Shadow, Death, which was sealed inside the Protagonist and takes the form of Pharos. Defeating the others allows them to reintegrate, which is a very bad thing as a completed Death has no choice but to trigger The Fall and summon Nyx to wipe out all life on earth, whether he wants to or not. Supplemental materials also reveal that all Shadows are actually fragments of Nyx which conscious minds on Earth have evolved to lock inside themselves. Personas are the result of a strong-willed person controlling their personal Shadow, which makes them fragments of Nyx as well.

Hypercompetent Sidekick: The Protagonist is effectively one, as whilst they become the Field Leader of SEES, both Mitsuru and Akihiko have seniority and SEES won't enter Tartarus if neither of them are present, with Mitsuru very much being shown as the overall leader of the team. On more than one occasion, Jin is the sole reason Takaya doesn't get himself killed fighting with SEES, as Jin keeps having to remind him of the greater scope of their goals and to show restraint.

Nothing Is Scarier: The real horror about the Bad Ending is the fact that Aigis is the only one who remembers the events. Not only does this mean that the Fall will happen, but all of the progress and Character Development made throughout the game was made for nothing. Gameplay-wise, if the floor has no enemies the moment you enter it, something worse is going to happen. Fuuka even lampshades that "something is not right". It is during these times when The Reaper will spawn faster than usual.

Take Your Time
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_cfd569ac
comment
Take Your Time: Nefariously played straight with the Dark Hour. It's a proverbial twenty-fifth hour, and yet the player can take as much time as they need grinding in Tartarus. The only thing that they need to keep an eye on is the condition of their party members, which does wear down over time, but by the time October rolls around, it takes a lot of effort for the party to tire out. In Portable, the mid-dungeon tiring function is removed, so you can go for long runs right from the beginning of the game. The only part of the game where there's any urgency (the game's only Timed Mission in this case) is the first Full Moon boss, and it's because the train you're riding on is about to crash, not because of the Dark Hour ending. On the other hand, because the game runs on a calendar-driven school year, the "day" portion of the game averts this; this also applies to Social Links and most of Elizabeth/Theodore's requests.

That Came Out Wrong: During the Protagonist's first day at Gekkoukan, Yukari tells them "Seriously, don't say anything about last night" - right in front of a very surprised Junpei, who is not yet a SEES member at this point. She was referring, of course, to their awkward first encounter at the dorm which happened in the last few moments of the Dark Hour, but Junpei immediately latches onto the less innocent interpretation, a situation further exacerbated on the Male Protagonist route by the fact their classmates have started spreading rumours about the two because they seen arriving at school together. Cue stereotypical reaction from Yukari when she realizes exactly what she said.

School Club Front: The Specialized Extracurricular Execution Squad (known as SEES) is registered as a school club with Chairman Ikutsuki as its advisor, and members even stay in the same dorm. However, the true purpose of the "club" is to investigate the Shadows, Tartarus and the Dark Hour. All members possess the ability to summon a Persona, which is the only known weapon against the Shadows.

comment
Asleep in Class: The player is given the option to fall asleep in class. Doing so will improve condition, thereby letting the protagonist fight better in Tartarus, but in exchange the player misses out on the potential Academics boost. After maxing out Academics, the player can sleep all the time, giving a near-constant "Great" status.

comment
Usually, romanced S. Links' involvement is limited to special events/holidays like in all other Persona games since then. Any other nod to this is shown from interacting with them in Tartarus (this type of dungeon conversation also applies to Persona 4). In the female route, probably because of the smaller romance pool involving S.E.E.S. party members, having certain characters romanced will alter various dialogue from dorm conversation on certain dates (remarks about Ryoji, post-Kyoto tripnote In the Kyoto trip itself, this also applies while talking to Akihiko at the inn, where he has a different dialogue if romanced. The male route's equivalent, Yuko, also has altered dialogue if her S. Link has progressed far enough to be considered romantic., etc.) to conversation with a different S. Link character (like Yukari's extra remark as mentioned on Developer's Foresight) to the climactic scene between post-Nyx Avatar fight and the final confrontation against Nyx, where Akihiko/Ken, alongside Aigis as in the original, will yell the player character's name.

Die or Fly
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_d2e98fd5
comment
Die or Fly: This is the idea behind the Evokers—even though they're not real guns and don't actually fire anything, the act of putting something nearly identical to a gun to one's head and pulling the trigger is visceral enough to trigger the fight-or-flight survival instinct that causes a Persona to manifest. In a specific example of this trope, at the beginning of the game, the main character awakens his Persona abilities after being attacked by the first Full Moon Shadow. It helps that someone nearby is giving him a nudge toward pulling the trigger.

We Cannot Go On Without You: If the Protagonist kicks the bucket, the game is over. Although it's not apparent at first, it turns out there's a storyline reason for this: the Protagonist is the human vessel for the cosmic force of Death. If they were to be killed in battle, Death would be released, and all would be lost.

Visual Novel: Portable exchanges full 3D environments and models in the downtime cutscenes for static sprites and backgrounds, making the game feel more like a visual novel to compensate for the portable console's limits. This also does mean that nearly every character gets a conversation sprite.

Anti-Frustration Features
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3
comment
Anti-Frustration Features: In general: Shadows' presence (bar the Reaper) depends on draw distance, so if the player is just focused on finding items/teleporters/stairs (or randomly gets the split party floor modifier in Portable; this draw distance rule does not apply if the player set their teammates to prioritize defeating Shadows), the player can just park their character somewhere without any Shadow nearby and wait until the job is done. The Reaper will not enter any room with stairs, so parking the party in there for a brief break is the safest point to do so outside battles (contrary to popular belief, the Reaper countdown keeps going even when the menu is opened, it just prevents its movement upon spawning). Certain non-automatic S. Links do not require having a Persona with matching Arcana in stock, mostly due to the limited schedule (Sun in both routes which can only be done on Sundays, Moon and Fortune in the female routenote The former is only available for a month while the latter is unique that it is tied to the story flow but still requires some manual interaction on certain ranks., Aeon (also both routes) which opens on the very last month before the epiloguenote Though it can still have one holdover visit due to the final rank requiring points, but as the month comes to an end the S. Link's availability schedule becomes more frequent.). The Devil S. Link (in both routes) will also always rank up every visit regardless of the player having a Devil Persona or not. If you realize that a Full Moon Operation is looming but you've neglected to train up your party, visiting Tartarus the night before keeps you from getting Tired, allowing you to grind and fuse to your heart's content in perparation for the boss. If you or your party were Tired and weren't getting better any time soon, everyone's Condition will be reset to Good for the boss fight so that you won't have to fret about fighting on a handicap. The original version of Persona 3 had a few questionable and highly annoying features that were removed in FES and P3P, largely because they just weren't logical to begin with and served only to hamper the player. The Requests are changed between versions, some for the better. FES notably removed the Shadow Shard and Shadow Crystal requests from the original, probably due to how exceedingly rare the items are even with the knowledge of which floors to search (unlike with the weapons, there is no other way to get them and they cannot be brought over to a New Game Plus), which can lower replayability for those that like to complete all the requests. Portable, meanwhile, allows the player to attempt the superboss without the need of New Game Plus, so a player can theoretically complete all requests in a single run. In the PS2 versions, the weapon shop would only be open in the afternoon, not the evenings, so when you went to the mall in the evenings (the only location you could go to in the evenings, in fact!) it would sit there, closed, taunting you. Portable allows the weapon shop to stay open at all times of the day. Viewing the Sunday television shopping program would eat up precious time you could be spending on a Social Link. Changed in FES and Portable, where watching the show doesn't take up any time. The "tired" mechanic was revised in P3P so that you only get tired the next day rather than in the middle of the dungeon. And if you needed to be in better condition right afterwards, you can use "Yawn-B-Gone" to cure the Tired state immediately. In Reload, much like in Persona 4 and Persona 5, the Tired mechanic is removed completely. In Portable and Reload, you can now assign individual commands to all of your party members, like in Persona 4, whereas before, you could only assign tactics to each party member, leaving you at the whims of an occasionally unreliable A.I. In the PS2 versions, you can only change the protagonist's equipment and can only use the protagonist's skills through the menu - if you want to change other character's equipment or have them use healing skills, you have to speak to them out of battle (and sometimes other characters will even change their equipment on their own, though they always warn the player if they do). This has a side effect of character's equipment not being changeable outside of Tartarus/Full Moon nights. In Portable and Reload, other character's equipment is now changeable from the menu, and the player can also use other character's healing skills from the menu. In the PS2 versions, the cursor for the Fusion Select screen will always return to the top after you select a Persona. This is later fixed in Portable as the cursor remains to the current selection, saving the player a lot of time in fusing the recent Personas in the bottom of the list. Even moreso when the Personas are purchased from the Compendium as the previously-bought ones are at the bottom. Just like in Persona 4, Portable allows you to immediately teleport through the highest unlocked floor in Tartarus if you walk through the door in the stairs of the entrance. Portable adds a save point at the player's desk, so if they remember to save, they can reload the game to that afternoon if they make a mistake with their afternoon Social Links. Unique to this version only is the bonus relationship point multiplier once the main character has max Charm. And yes, this stacks with multiplier from having a matching Persona Arcana in stock. In an entry that is stingy with time management, this is a life saver for a 100% max ranked S. Link run. Teammates' portraits on the lower right part of the screen will darken if they are considered out of range, so the player can tell if they will join a battle or not and if they can be healed outside battles via the Skill menu. Unlocking the Brutal Bonus Level for the first time no longer requires reaching the (most possible to explore) top of Tartarus. The player simply has to clear the Bloody Button request (which is an additional requirement in FES). Portable no longer has neglect and jealousy penalties for Social Links (despite "jealousy" warnings still displayed on the male route). Related to this, one overlooked aspect in the male route is the fact that few of his Social Links have been reworked to remove the pitfall answers (Yukari's particularly has a different set of responses in her infamous Rank 5), though Chihiro remains the only Social Link that can be potentially ruined from a wrong answer. And if you think Portable's AFFs make the game too easy...don't worry. Maniac difficulty is there to challenge you once again. The remastered port of Portable: It outright copy-pasted the customizable difficulty settings from Persona 4 Golden (except money modifier), meaning the player, if they wanted to, can retry on the last floor they got defeated on or outright continue after a game over. Because of this, however, Plumes of Dusk are no longer applicable — even the difficulty selection omits the number of times the player can get right back up upon defeat on the lower difficulties. The game also comes with a Suspend Save function, so the player can take a break mid-dungeon at any time without using the clock. Another minor but convenient addition is the message log function akin to the later games, so players no longer need to worry about forgetting a given context prior to a dialogue option from skipping the dialogue quickly.

Depending on the Artist: Mitsuru's hair colour varies between her character model, portraits, key art and the animated cutscenes - her character model features a dark red that leans towards brown, her portraits give her dark red hair, whilst the animated cutscenes render her hair as being dark brown without any hints of red. Yukari is generally depicted as having shoulder length hair; there are several animated cutscenes - notably the Kyoto trip and during The Answer - that instead show her hair as going past her shoulders and reaching partway down her back. Messiah's artwork shows that the Persona carries Thanatos' coffin lid cape on a chain tied around one of his arms; whilst this detail is present in the PlayStation 2 versions of the game, the coffin lids are missing from Messiah's model in Persona 3 Portable.

Lyrical Dissonance: "When the Moon Reaches for the Stars", the standard Port Island theme, is a happy-sounding J-pop with lyrics about a person who Cannot Spit It Out to a crush and feels incredibly depressed about it. It doesn't help that Yumi Kawamura's extremely thick accent makes the English lyrics hard to make out. "Changing Seasons", the second semester music theme, is probably even more cheery than "When the Moon" and has a breakdown consisting of French proverbs. Said proverbs are about grief and loneliness. "Kimi no Kioku", the credits theme. It's an upbeat and cheery tune... with the lyrics about the loss of a loved one i.e. our hero, ladies and gentlemen.

Chekhov's Gunman: Ikutsuki, a conspicuously inoffensive character who is introduced early on, does next to nothing of note for much of the game (he's one of the few characters who fails to exhibit any obvious signs of a Dark and Troubled Past), and surprises absolutely no one when he turns out to be The Man Behind the Man. In FES you can see most Social Link characters as well as Akihiko being pestered by fangirls during your character's first walks from the school to the dorm. You can also meet all your school Social Links on the first day of school, and even talk to them. There's also a non-character example: the music the protagonist is listening to on his headphones during that scene is "Burn My Dread -Last Battle-". This track later plays as a proper BGM (rather than being all muffled and distorted) during the final battle with Nyx.

Whoever is in charge of healing will usually wait until someone has lost at least 20 to 30 percent of their hit points before healing them rather than keeping everyone at perfect health all the time. This may or may not be Artificial Brilliance, however, as blowing 20-40 SP to restore 70 HP out of 400+ is inefficient.

comment
Updated Re-release: Persona 3 FES added a Social Link for Aigis, the ability to take Koromaru for walks, the ability to revive Chidori and new story events to accommodate this, video recordings of the S.E.E.S. members in their free time, and a variety of quality of life changes such as more Personas and a harder diffculty mode. It also included "The Answer" - a Playable Epilogue to the main story. Persona 3 Portable reworked the 'FES version of the game as a Visual Novel due to technical limitations, with only the Full Moon operations and Tartarus exploration retaining the 3D overworld. Whilst lacking "The Answer" and anime cutscenes of the console version, Portable added a Female Protagonist that offered a different path through the narrative. It also backported a number of quality of life changes from Persona 4, which had released in the interim.

Shoot the Medic First: Frequently a viable strategy, especially against the bosses who come with minions. On the flip side, if all four of your party members can heal... During the Strength-Chariot Full Moon Boss, this trope is subverted as both of the bosses can revive the other one if one of them is beaten. The trick is to kill both of them at the same turn.

Hair Memento: Aigis can't give the Protagonist organic hair, as she is a robot. However, she wants to fulfil the emotional meaning of this trope, so she gives them one of the damaged screws that had to be replaced after she was heavily damaged trying to fight Death on her own.

Not caring about breaking Optional Boss rules and just let Plumes of Dusk or infinite restarts be your lifeline? Nope, all the boss will do at this point is always the 9999-damage attack, and the boss will always move first after the player's revival to ensure that the message came across.

Battle Theme Music: The famous "Mass Destruction", a fast-paced, jazzy hip-hop song, accompanies every standard battle. The Answer uses another version of it in the same style with different lyrics, making it come off as a second verse of the song. The female protagonist in the PSP rerelease instead has "Wiping All Out".

comment
Please Put Some Clothes On: When the party is split up during the July 7th operation in the female route, the player can pick the option that tells either Junpei or Akihiko to put their clothes on when they step out of the shower. Equipping the female protagonist with the "Battle Panties" and talking to her love interest while she's wearing them in Tartarus inevitably gets some form of this reaction. The bikini gets similarly amusing reactions.

Whole-Plot Reference
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_e303d198
comment
Whole-Plot Reference: The entire plot is very familar to those who've played Persona at least with the Snow Queen Quest. Nietzsche Wannabe who wants to bring about the end of the world through a sacrifice, check. Not to metion that the Snow Queen IS Nyx. Also the main aesop of the main game (Don't run away from your problems) is mirrored in Ken's Character Development. The game also shares many similarities with Neon Genesis Evangelion, mainly its theme of fighting against an unknown threat (Angels/Shadows), the approaching end of the world (Instrumentality/The Fall) and how people deal with death. Now if you add in the fact that the Protagonist shares quite a few characteristics with Shinji (even the headphones!), Aigis with Rei, Yukari with Asuka, and Ryoji with Kaworu, the game feels very different. The game is also very similar to the original four .hack games. In .hack, The Cursed Wave, a sentient computer virus, puts people into a vegetative state to herald the coming of 8 bosses who are parts of one big super boss, Morganna, who threatens to end the world. In Persona 3, The Shadows, sentient manifestations of the human psyche, put people into a vegetative state to herald the coming of 12 bosses who are parts of one big super boss, Death, who threatens to end the world via two bigger super bosses, Nyx and Erebus. There is also the appearance of an unrelated third party in both; .hack has Cubia, a downright Eldritch Abomination, while Persona 3 has a group of Persona users called Strega who use Personas for pleasure and excitement. However, in .hack, Corbenik, the last of the eight bosses, is the Final Boss, while here, Corbenik's counterpart, the Hanged Man, is not. Afterwards, it is also revealed that Strega is connected to the plot, unlike Cubia, who was his own case. Even the gameplay is fairly similar, from the controlling of your party members through generic tactics and listening to their squeals of delight when they gain levels to the in-universe names for elements and types of spells, where Repth in the .hack universe becomes Dia. The social links can even be seen as extended, more central to the plot versions of the e-mails you could send your teammates in the .hack games.

Going Commando: Discussed. Ken asks the girls if they're wearing underwear under their kimonos during the New Year's festival (note that in several regions of Japan, kimonos really aren't worn with anything underneath), mentioning overhearing it from Junpei. The girls aren't very amused. When Ken later asks if Junpei was telling the truth, the protagonist can either confirm or deny or simply dodge the question.

Turns Red: A few bosses do this, but most notably, the Final Boss, on its last form, begins using a technique that grants it "Repel" status against everything (including the supposedly unblockable Almighty spells) for a few turns, and then it starts using the Night Queen attack, which deals massive Almighty damage to the party and has the capability of inflicting any status effect on the party..

As mentioned above. Surprisingly for a Shin Megami Tensei game, the Gekkoukan team is a very pure example of the trope. It's explicitly mentioned when they begin their Fool's Journey as SEES (Specialized Extracurricular Execution Squad) and their determination to fight a Cosmic Horror makes them change their name to Nyx Annihilation Team, empowered by the Judgement Arcana.

Double Subversion
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_e407c52e
comment
A Double Subversion comes in when the game attempts to hide how long the game is playable. Normally, a player would expect the game to go through every day up until the end of the game, but this is not the case. It has really random and useless crap in the calendar that barely has any kind of significance used in the game other than as special holidays, taking exams, and doing special stuff with friends/social links/what have you. Additionally, the month of January is the last month fully playable if on the Good End. However, the game skips to March 3 in both endings and plays until March 5 (March 4 is only playable in the Good End), which is significant since this is before the Graduation Reception, a diverging point in both the Bad End and Good End.

3 has a much more science-fiction feel compared to 4 and 5. 3 includes a lot technology specifically designed for dealing with personas and shadows, such as the evokers, as well as other sci-fi technology such as Ridiculously Human Robots. 4 and 5, by contrast, are more pure Urban Fantasy where the use of technology is limited to Post-Modern Magik involving realistic tech, such as televisions and smartphones.

Nerf
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_e545e190
comment
Nerf: Several skills were changed this way between vanilla P3 and FES. Some are minor like upping the SP cost for Samsara and Die for Me! from 35 in vanilla to 40 in FES, but some are more notable: Many physical skills are made weaker to accomodate the reduced cost in the latter version, as the vanilla version is notorious for the absurdly high HP cost for something that ends up inferior to magic skills. The Regenerate passive skills restore less HP per turn in FES, possibly in response to the lowered HP cost for physical skills as noted above. One very notable change, however, is making element Break skills cost far more SP in FES (from 15 in vanilla to 40 in FES), which in this version can easily drain teammate SP if poor matchup or Artificial Stupidity sets in. Personas: Byakko was nerfed hard between vanilla and FES. In vanilla, Byakko was the Ultimate Persona of the Temperance Arcana and was a contender as one of the best Personas in the game. It was Phys-based with a very solid set of skills in Deathboundnote High BP Slash skill, targets all enemies, 25% crit chance., High Counternote Passive, 20% chance to counter Phys attacks., Endurenote Survive with 1 HP upon taking a fatal hit., and Fist Masternote Boosts damage inflicted with glove-type weapons.. Byakko's magic side was not bad either, being Ice-based (drains Ice as well) and having the all-target Mabufudyne as an innate skill, which can be boosted further with Ice Amp which Byakko can also learn. In FES, Byakko's position is usurped by Yurlungur and changed to be Elec-based, but this change brought down Byakko's skill set to be less powerful. FES Byakko keeps Deathbound and Endure, but loses out High Counter and Fist Master. The Zio family dominates the magic side, but FES Byakko only learns Elec Boost by level up, requiring inheritance to get Amp. And though the change from draining Ice to Elec is obvious and the addition of Slash resistance is nice, FES Byakko gains an additional weakness to Fire (totaling 2 weaknesses counting Dark). The Ultimate Persona of Star Arcana, Lucifer in vanilla has impressive resistances, nullifying all 3 physical attack types and Dark, on top of high end stats, unique moves, and being one of the Personas needed to unlock Armaggedon. Notably, in FES and Portable, Lucifer of Star Arcana is renamed into Lucifel (in Japanese) or Helel (in English), and only resists all physical attacks rather than being immune. Likewise, Lucifer of Judgment Arcana also only resists physical. Starting from FES, using the offertory (raises Academics) or the fortune box takes up a time slot, though this is more to do with how the free time locations have been overhauled compared to vanilla (there, the fortune box could not be used to increase Social Link points). To match Persona 4 (and to go with the revamped condition system), returning to the first floor of Tartarus no longer fully heals the party in Portable. The player has to pay a fee at the clock to heal there. Probably due to following the QoL updates from Persona 4, checking turn order in Portable is only limited to who will act next in line, instead of displaying numbers representing turn order on all battlers. The Down status gets this in Portable as downed battlers no longer waste a turn before getting back up (on the bright side, no more risk of easily stunlocked party). Instead, it requires a Dizzy status to achieve the same effect, same as in Persona 4. In Portable, certain skills can no longer be passed down through fusion, turning them into Secret Art. No more Thanatos with Die for Me! here. Portable makes Fusion Spells usable items that must be stocked by trading rare items at the Antiques Store, rather than accessible as long as you have the prerequisite Personas in stock. They no longer cost HP or SP to use, but they're a lot less spammable (so you can't mash Armageddon to kill everything now) and take more effort to stock up. The Reaper is nerfed in a way in Portable where it can now use single-target skills instead of just spamming skills on the entire party every turn.

GameplayAndStoryIntegration
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_e6630c8b
comment
Gameplay and Story Integration: Despite the effectiveness of Healing Hands Dia spells, there are clear limits on the availability of the stronger healing spells, both in gameplay and in story. In the first month of the game Mitsuru doesn't ask Yukari to heal Akihiko's injuries which confine him to a hospital for some time, which makes sense as Yukari only has access to starter healing skills at that point. The original Persona shows that standard healing spells are much less effective on people who have yet to awaken their Persona. Unfortunately, this seems to extend to people who can't or don't intend to use their Persona, as Shinjiro can attest to. When Akihiko returns from the hospital, he is in Great condition, like how the protagonist will be in Great condition if they sleep at night instead of study. Since Aigis is a machine, she can't be poisoned. Over the course of the first few months of the game, Junpei becomes increasingly jealous and hostile towards the Protagonist. On the Female Protagonist route, this results in the player being locked out of progressing Junpei's Social Link between the July Full Moon operation and the summer exams, when Junpei apologises. Chidori has a notable Healing Factor, to the point she heals from injuries (mostly self-inflicted) at an abnormal rate. Her self-recovery is represented in game as her Spring of Life passive, which heals 8% of her max HP per turn. During the Post-Final Boss fight against Nyx, the protagonist gains the Great Seal ability to seal Nyx away, which costs 100% of the player's HP to use. Sure enough, the fight ends with the protagonist doing a Heroic Sacrifice. Usually, romanced S. Links' involvement is limited to special events/holidays like in all other Persona games since then. Any other nod to this is shown from interacting with them in Tartarus (this type of dungeon conversation also applies to Persona 4). In the female route, probably because of the smaller romance pool involving S.E.E.S. party members, having certain characters romanced will alter various dialogue from dorm conversation on certain dates (remarks about Ryoji, post-Kyoto tripnote In the Kyoto trip itself, this also applies while talking to Akihiko at the inn, where he has a different dialogue if romanced. The male route's equivalent, Yuko, also has altered dialogue if her S. Link has progressed far enough to be considered romantic., etc.) to conversation with a different S. Link character (like Yukari's extra remark as mentioned on Developer's Foresight) to the climactic scene between post-Nyx Avatar fight and the final confrontation against Nyx, where Akihiko/Ken, alongside Aigis as in the original, will yell the player character's name.

Combination Attack
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_e69e12b2
comment
Combination Attack: Fusion Spells (Mixed Raid in Japanese), exclusive to the Protagonist, involve wielding two Personas to attack in tandem to unleash a specific effect. They can cost either HP or SP, but the SP ones cost percentages of your total SP rather than the usual flat amount. Every Fusion Spell involves a specific pair of Personas, both of which need to be in the current arsenal and one of them needs to be equipped to activate it. However, in Portable, this is changed: Fusion Spells are now expendable items, which can only be bought by trading gems in Shinshoudo Antiques. Each Fusion Spell item expends itself after one use, but no longer requires specific Personas to be in the protagonist's current stock. The All-Out Attack, and Co-Op attacks in P3P.

Guns Are Worthless: Aigis and Takaya use firearms as their primary weapons, but they aren't especially powerful. Though in cutscenes, Shinjiro, Mitsuru's father, Ikutsuki, and Junpei (who manages to get better) are all killed by wounds inflicted by gunfire.

Social Links requires you to form bonds with various people in order to maximize Persona fusions. Unfortunately, in order to maximize efficiency, the protagonist usually has to pick dialogue options that agrees to their thinking no matter how self-destructive they are (Kazuchi and Hidetoshi) or how unsavory they are (Nozomi and Tanaka) lest the player wants to waste more time gaining points. At one point, you are forced to say something critical to Nozomi which results in him immediately cutting ties with you and by extension reversing the Social Link. Fortunately, the Social Link is immediately restored after an untimely event.

Complaining About Rescues They Don't Like: During Yukari's Rank 5 event, she gets accosted by some punks who stole her wallet, only to be saved by the protagonist who either fights the punks off or threatens to call for help. She initially thanks the protagonist but her insecurities quickly get the better of her and she starts lashing out at the protagonist. She eventually realizes that she was at fault and apologizes during the Rank 6 event.

Early-Bird Cameo
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_f0089082
comment
Early-Bird Cameo: Upon first arriving at Gekkoukan High, several of the future Social Links can be seen going about their day as the Protagonist first heads to the Faculty Office before class, whilst several more (Along with future party members Akihiko and Ken) are seen as the Protagonist is shown walking through the various locations of the game on the first days before the player gets free reign to decide how to spend their time after-school. This number is reduced in Portable, due to the format of the game meaning that those first after-school segments are cut, whilst on the Female Protagonist route, the characters shown don't change from those that are exclusive to the Male Protagonist route. Ken can be found talking with Yukari and Junpei by the temple several months before he gains any plot importance. Thanatos, the ultimate Persona of the Death arcana, can't be obtained by the Protagonist until fairly late in the game. However, when Orpheus first appears, Thanatos suddenly bursts out of his body and sticks around just long enough to violently curb-stomp the Magician and reveal the Protagonist's Wild Card ability. Several were added in Persona 3 Portable. A seemingly nondescript "Man Drinking Alone" starts appearing at Club Escapade as the story progresses, and goes on about various problems he has in his love life. When you speak to him the final time, he suddenly has a portrait and eventually states that his situation will probably have "nothing to do with your problems" in the bright red text reserved for critical information that the player needs to take note of. This is Vincent, star of the Atlus game Catherine, which was in production at the time of P3P's release, and the things he complains about are all references to the plot of his game. In the Male Protagonist route, Noriko Kashiwagi appears during "Operation Babe Hunt". She is one of the teachers at Yasogami High, the school featured in Persona 4. In the Female Protagonist route, Yukiko Amagi from Persona 4 appears over a year and a half before the events of her game begin.

Anti-Grinding
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_f11c3835
comment
Anti-Grinding: As a way to limit your grinding, your characters will eventually grow tired within Tartarus as you keep winning battles, thus their aim will worsen and they will get hit more often. This is a good point to call it a night, but for the persistent, characters will eventually go from "Tired" to "Sick", at which point not only will they have a higher chance of eating a Critical Hit, any healing cast on them is less effective. As soon as you return to the entrance, any tired characters leave automatically. However, the day right before a Full Moon Boss, as a way to stop the game from potentially becoming Unwinnable, this feature is removed, allowing you to train all you want. Well, excepting November. It was slightly changed in Persona 3 Portable: Characters will mention being tired between battles, and Fuuka or Mitsuru will comment about how you must be getting tired, but the actual 'Tired' status won't kick in until the next day. The stronger your party members become, the less EXP they will receive, and lower-leveled enemies will simply run in terror if you attempt to get near them if your party is over-leveled.

Arbitrary Headcount Limit
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_f3cf30d9
comment
Arbitrary Headcount Limit: You can only have up to 4 members in your party including the protagonist. However, the game justifies this by having the party be an exploration team. That way, if the entire team bites it, SEES won't be wiped out (...Well, the world will end if the protagonist is killed, so they won't really get a chance to use the backup. But it's a nice thought). During the Final Battle, when all of SEES is present at the Boss Arena, the limit is enforced when Fuuka detects a large number of Shadows climbing up towards them. Mitsuru commands the rest of the party to Hold the Line against these Shadows and defend the main group while your group fights the final enemy.

Wake-Up Call Boss
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_f4a0408f
comment
Wake-Up Call Boss: The Hierophant. It's the first boss in the entire game that shows just how much status effects are going to fuck you over, having an attack that causes Fear against the part and following up with a party scaled physical attack, and if more than one character has Fear and you don't have Junpei with you, or you do have Junpei and he gets affected and skips his turn, it's going to cause some massive damage, as well as getting a guaranteed bonus turn in P3P. While there are harder bosses in the game, including before this one, it really is the first boss that shows just how insane some of the battles can get and how one turn can screw with your strategy. Early on, there's the third Guardian Shadow, Rampage Drive. It nullifies all physical attacks (and also repels Strike), is resistant to Fire (what Junpei excels in), and can use the Electric Skill Mazio (Yukari's weakness). Unless if you can use Persona Fusion efficiently to get Omoikane (resists Elec, decent Magic stat), or level up Pixie enough to learn Pulinpa (inflicts Panic, preventing Skills to be cast), you might have to sacrifice quite a bit to get the first Old Document.

Did You Just Romance Cthulhu?: In Portable on the Female Main Character's route, you're given the chance to initiate a romantic S.Link with Ryoji Mochizuki, the human form of Nyx Avatar. That is, you can make the personification of Death itself fall in love with you. While it's not an official social link, a male main character is asked to show Elizabeth what sex is like during their last outing. The female main character can similarly win the affection of, and have an Optional Sexual Encounter with, Elizabeth or her younger brother Theodore. It's not clear exactly what Elizabeth and Theodore are, but whatever they are, it's not human, and as the game's Superbosses they are just as if not more powerful than the above mentioned character.

Disc-One Final Dungeon: The game attempts this trope with the fourth block of Tartarus; assuming you complete the block before the full moon in November, you reach the top of the block only to find that it's also the top of the massive tower. Only after three Disc One Final Bosses, two of which are fought simultaneously, and a Wham Episode, do the final two blocks emerge for you to plow through.

 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_f821e963
comment
The Very Definitely Final Dungeon: Averted in the traditional sense, as Tartarus is the only dungeon in the game. That being said, it's divided into six blocks (and a basement), with the sixth and topmost block only unlocking in the final month of the game if you've fulfilled the requirements for the good ending. Even then, the topmost floors of the tower which lead to the final few bosses only become accessible on the final playable day of the game. The Empyrean section of The Answer marks the final leg of dungeon crawling, as the end of this segment holds the protagonist's Shadow, which then cues SEES's infighting and then the final boss of The Answer.

Video Game Cruelty Potential: Forcing your allies to kill themselves on various barriers is very effective for at least one boss. What's that? Death is coming and you aren't near a stairway or access point? Quick! Split the team up on the floor and hope the Reaper chases down one of your teammates while you flee to safety!

Darkest Hour: The start of December serves as this - Ryoji is revealed to be Death, Aigis is out of commission after her attempt at killing him resulted in a Curb-Stomp Battle at her expense, and the rest of SEES are in such a funk after learning of the impending end of the world that everyone just mopes around the dorm for a week - unwilling to go to Tartarus or just hang out - until Junpei nearly fights the Protagonist over their carrying Death inside them for ten years and Mitsuru makes the point that moping around isn't helping anyone make a decision on what to do before ordering everyone to resume their normal lives.

Running Gag: Akihiko's tendency to mention that he must "train to become stronger", as well as taking protein-filled food will sometimes be commented by other S.E.E.S. (particularly Mitsuru) as a sign of his recklessness. Mr. Edogawa giving the player character "concoctions" if the he/she is affected by the Tired status. Sometimes it helps you, sometimes it doesn't. But the description of the drink makes it sound like it is made from rituals. There will always be at least two students getting bored at the events in the school auditorium.

Weird Moon: Like most of the SMT games, bad mojo brews when the moon is full. In Persona 3, which is unique in that it has a set amount of time before the world ends, there's a set number of full moons and each calls forth one or more extremely powerful Shadows themed after a specific Arcana of the Tarot - beginning with the Warmup Boss, The Magician.

The Power of Friendship: The Social Link system: the main character can form relationships called Social Links with significant people. Each one is associated with one of the Major Arcana and will power up Persona of the matching Tarot class when fused in the Velvet Room. The Power Of Friendship literally empowers the Protagonist at the end, giving him a new Arcanum and allowing him to seal Nyx.

My Sister Is Off-Limits: Played with during the ending in March. If Kenji's link is maxed out in FES, he'll mention his sister will be attending Gekkoukan during the next year, and initially has no issue with the idea of the protagonist dating her (in fact, he says it'll keep her too busy to bother him). As soon as he realizes he'd potentially be the MC's brother-in-law, however, he takes the offer back.

You Killed My Father: A subdued version plays out as Yukari's convinced that the Kirijo Group is hiding the truth about her father's death, and she's spent the past few years trying to find out what really happened. Once she learns the answer, it doesn't help. And the whole October 4th affair is that Shinjiro accidentally murdered Ken's mom when going after a shadow with his newly found Persona. Ken wasn't very happy about that.

Weapon Specialization
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_fc148c2c
comment
Weapon Specialization: With most of them connecting to a personality trait of each party member, while some don't. The Male Protagonist can use any weapon type, but he usually prefers one-handed swords, unsurprisingly. He's locked into that option for Persona 3 Portable. The Female Protagonist from the PSP version wields naginatas, possibly to evoke the image of the wives of samurai who wielded them. Yukari uses bows; she's a member of the archery club. Junpei uses two-handed swords, wielding them like a baseball bat. He offhandedly mentions that he wanted to be a baseball player as a kid. Akihiko, captain of Gekkoukan's boxing team, fights with his fists, with his equipment including gloves and spurs. Mitsuru is a member of Gekkoukan's fencing team; she can use any sort of one-handed sword in the original and FES games, but is locked to rapiers in the Portable version. Aigis, a robot, uses gun attachments on her arms. Koromaru uses a small knife that he holds in his mouth, probably to avoid directly biting the Shadows. Ken uses large, unwieldy spears. He says he does so to compensate for his shorter stature against foes. Shinjiro, the resident heavy hitter, uses axes. Metis in The Answer also uses them.

Department of Redundancy Department: The Glossary description for New Year's Eve mentions the choice of either killing Ryoji or having everyone's knowledge of the Fall erased... except the later is the result of the former. The actual choice is to spare Ryoji and fight Nyx, or kill Ryoji and erase everyone's knowledge of the Fall. The repeated "equipped" on the Attack description for Strike and Pierce on Portable, as already mentioned on "Blind Idiot" Translation.

Embarrassing but Empowering Outfit
 Persona 3 (Video Game) / int_fd3a00dc
comment
Embarrassing but Empowering Outfit: The female-only Chainmail Bikini style "High Cut Armor", renamed to "Battle Panties" in Persona 3: Portable. It significantly raises a party members' attack and defense, can be gotten early on in the game and isn't usurped as the best armor for a while. However, it's also very skimpy and one the few costumes that the girls will comment on specifically if you equip it (usually you get a generic "thanks!" message, but with the HCA you get a "...really? I have to wear this?" one instead). In Persona 3: FES and Portable, it also changes the character model, and the Female Protagonist can also wear it with pride too.

Brick Joke: Early on in the FES rerelease, the protagonist is asked to inspect a broken component in the operations room. There's nothing the player can actually fix, and it's instead a setup for the player to access the video recordings that were added in FES. Near the end, after the final recording is accessed, Aigis mentions that she found and fixed the problem. One of Elizabeth's early requests is to fuse a Jack Frost with Dia. After you complete it, she expresses a desire to see a level 99 Jack Frost (its base level is 8, so it'll take loads of grinding). When she faces you during her superboss fight, one of her possible Personas is a souped-up Jack Frost.

Cutscene Power to the Max: Thanatos absolutely destroys the Magician Shadow after the protagonist awakens to his Persona. Takaya is much more deadly in cutscenes than he is in boss battles. After Chidori sacrifices herself to revive him, Junpei completely blows his stack, awakens to his Ultimate Persona, and promptly hits Jin (who normally reflects fire damage) with a fireball so strong it knocks him ten feet in the air.

Item Crafting: FES allows you to forge weapons at the Antique Shop by fusing your Personas with 'Nihil' weapons dropped by a Metal Slime. Most of the time the result is a fairly generic weapon with a special effect dependant on the Arcana of the Persona used, but certain combinations will yield mythological weapons which are easily the best in the game.

Shown Their Work: All over the place, but particularly with the Tarot Motifs. Is Persona 3 the only example to get Lovers and Death right? The Female Protagonist's hair pins, spell out the Roman numerals "XXII" or 22, which, along with 0, is the number given for the Fool. Thanatos, a form which Death gains after being sealed into the protagonist, along with his identities as Pharos and Ryoji. Thanatos was the bringer of peaceful death and Ryoji's offer on December 31st can be seen as a way for the protagonists to accept the Fall/Death with relative ease.
