For that specific event,
she basically tells you that she loves you and turns around, so that if you don't feel the same way, she doesn't have to watch you leave. You get the choice to hug her or leave. I was already in a relationship with Yukiko, so I had to turn around and leave. The screen goes black and you hear her say goodbye. She actually jokes about it in the post-game Max S.Link scene, but damned if it wasn't depressing at the time.

It is crazy what you notice plot wise on the second playthrough.
(end spoilerage)
I never noticed the whole gas station attendant only appearing on rainy days and always talking about the Midnight Channel the first time. Shit, the guy running around the shopping district complaining about the lack of any open jobs at the gas station after the attendant in the opening uses an invitation for a part time job to shake your hand was an eye opener on new game+
Ourobolus said:
I'm not that kind of guy. One woman man here, all about trust and purity and stuff.
Actually, I'm kind of surprised you can have more than one relationship, I thought the whole friends/serious relationship thing was the answer to P3's "Avoid all other girls once you get to level 6 with one of them" thing. Of course, you could get around that too...
Narcosis said:
I said it before but
that gas station attendant only appearing on rainy days is what made me really suspicious. The only reason I wasn't convinced until it actually became apparent was because she didn't have a picture/icon until after you figured it out. Great job on that one Atlus
cakeman19 said:
Yeah, that was a good idea, since (endgame stuff)
I kind of only suspected people who had portraits since RPG Law states that characters without portraits are unimportant. Still, I did find the attendant suspicious, if only because of the rainy day thing. Actually, Adachi was my first suspect for the killer when I was playing the game, but I stopped suspecting him after the Rise event since he was with you when she gets kidnapped (apparently, I fell right into Atlus's trap on that one). I suspected Namatame after that, but hey, he ended up being (mostly) innocent. Still, as two important characters with portraits and no S.Links, they are somewhat inherently suspicious (I actually expected Namatame to be the Death or Hanged Man S.Link until I found who those two were).
More stuff I'm noticing on second playthrough: (more endgame spoilers)
When the game starts and the MC's on the train, you see quick flashes of Yamano being attacked, interspersed with shots of Igor and the like. You can see the decor of the Amagi Inn behind her, as well as the sleeves and shoes of her attacker, which do match Adachi's, not that you would notice the first time around (or even realize what's going on). The time matches up, since the MC's arrival should be about the same time Yamano gets TV'd. I guess Adachi vomiting the next day at the crime scene is him realizing what happens when people go into the TV?

Did I not get the true ending then? Did I mess up somewhere?Tamanon said:
I don't remember meeting Izanami, just that guy controlling the weird eyeball, after chasing Adachi.

Yatagarasu + innate Cool Breeze skill (Restores 8% HP/SP after battle, he must be equipped) = Main Character soloing heaven.

Nope. :lol Damn. What did I mess up?Tamanon said:Sounds like it. Did you get another dungeon in March?
Awesome. I think I still have the save before that. I should be able to do it. I did however loan it out to a pal, so I'm going to have to rent it. :lolRedBoot said:

I would assume the focus of the link would change from one to the other.Guled said:
Something else I remembered after beating the game: I didn't realize that you could go to the Dojima Residence on the map screen until, like October. I thought picking it would automatically send you home for the day, but nope, there's an actual area there. Nothing big other than a quest requirement (why I found it) and free bait every day, but it's there.

Ugh. Poor Yumi's going to get the shit knocked outta her by Chie for me...
and yet, this is a strangely appealing proposition, one which I eagerly await.

Can a triple fusion Persona learn 5 abilities from the base 3? The base 3 have 7, 6, and 6 abilities, and I want a particular 4, but if I can get some leeway from learning a fifth ability, it'd make the Persona I'm trying to create have a little more room (and possibly one more ability I'd like her to have) for getting what I want on her.

Doh, will keep trying then. Stupid Dia, I don't want you!

I always wanted to see it, but I was always too faithful to Rise.zoku88 said:For some reason, I never got any catfights going on
Well, I think Rise started arguing with Ai one time, but neither of them were my gf at the time.

Meh, I keep getting 3 plus Dia, I want normal Bufu. She's no Lilim or Alice, but I guess she'll do. Should be good for dungeon 2+.

I may be wrong, but I don't think it's a cumulative discount. You complete a rank of the S. Link, then make a trip into the TV, the Fox will be happy. After enough time passes, he's not happy anymore, and if you've accepted an Ema Request, and it's been a bit since you did, he'll get quite pissy with you.

Well, I'm going by Persona 3, where the hit-all spells were kind of counter-intuitive to getting easy knockdowns against groups of different badguys with different weaknesses. With my Lilim and Alice, since they had the lv1 single-target spells, it cost less MP and I could knock everything down pretty easily. I don't know if a spell on a knocked-down enemy un-knocks them down in this one like they did in 3.
Is this game like Persona 3 where I have to have Knowledge level 3 for midterms to get something good? I can just get "Expert" the day before midterms, but I miss out on 2 S-Link level ups (study at the library on Saturday, ignore Nanako Saturday night and study instead, ignore Chie on Sunday and just study all day will get me up to "Expert").

It doesn't, and a miss or a hit to an enemy resilient by a multi hit spell no longer ends your attack.Red Scarlet said:

It doesn't. It just makes them dizzy, which incapacitates them for a few turns.Red Scarlet said:
Red Scarlet said:
It doesn't, so the Ma- spells are sometimes (usually) preferable to the single-target ones in P4.
Yeah I was curious about the exam bonuses too. I got in the top ten and then I was first in the class but the reward seemed to be the same for both: $$$ from Dojima, S-Link points and items from the Egyptophile teacher.
edit: LOL, beaten twice.
Red Scarlet said:
Getting top marks get you decent accessories from Nanako, money from Dojima and items from the history teacher. Top 10, you get less money and the same history teacher. Anything else and you get crappy money from Dojima. Also, your school S-links get a boost based on your score.

Ok, guess I'll study and get expert then. I think I'm whiffing big time on the requests, I think I've only completed 1 or 2 out of 3 that I've seen so far.

I've been soloing Void's dungeon and its an Experience goldmine. I'm near level 50, but now I'm just going after the secondary boss with my normal group.
