Persona 2 Game Script - Part 1 by Tadashi Satomi Lyrics
(The opening FMV plays of a golden butterfly flying in the night, and it shows Maya standing alone outside at night, then it shows her face up close, then it shows Seven Sisters High School and its hallways. It shows the Seventh emblem burning and the blimp rising from the Sky Museum and Araya Shrine. Then it shows the Undersea Ruins collapsing and Sumaru City taking flight above the earth. Then it flips to Katsuya standing on a rooftop (probaly of Konan PD) staring at the moon in the night sky, and it shows Baofu in his lair working on his webpage, and Tatsuya staring at Araya Shrine. Next it shows a hand punching glass at a mirror, and it was Ulala who punched it. It shows Tatsuya Sudou
sitting in his room at night with the moon in the window. Guido and his Joker machines and machines firing on the Nichirinmaru and one of the Guardian Dragons. It shows the collective unconsciousness with Nyarlathotep's lair and it shows a mummy idol and an old man (Tatsuzou Sudou) up close with an evil grin. And finally it shows Maya and Tatsuya using thier Personae and it appears they're at Philemon's lair and then the title screen shows up.)
[Choose Start]
(An FMV plays of a man in red clothes named Tatsuya Suou. He is sitting
in a garage sleeping and he recalls a moment ago where he had met Maya
at a train station not to long ago. Then he starts to have several
flashbacks from events that happened on the "Other Side" (such as the
Joker and saying goodbye to Eikichi, Lisa, and Jun and etc.) And it
shows Maya dying and Tatsuya hears Maya's last words before she died:
"Please forget about me....Go on without me..." Then Tatsuya wakes up
and next he is at Araya Shrine, just staring at it. He has an image of
it burning, and then the image fades away. )
ARAYA SHRINE
(Tatsuya is standing at Araya Shrine staring at it in a gaze, then an old woman
walks up to him).
OLD WOMAN: You look so depressed...Did you lose something important?
YOUNG MAN: ......
OLD WOMAN: I see...You didn't lose anything. You found your...memories.
OLD WOMAN: Humans are such sinful creatures. This place used to be so
lively with activity. As time passes, things dear are forgotten.
OLD WOMAN: Would you be better off forgetting them, or remembering
them..? You've been enslaved in this dilemma...
(Tatsuya is just about to exit when he stops.)
YOUNG MAN: That's right...I remember now...A sin that must not
exist...How do I atone?
SOMEWHERE---CONFRENCE ROOM
8 people are standing in two rows when an old man walks in between them.
MYSTERIOUS OLD MAN: We will now begin the "Ritual of Kotodama".
MYSTERIOUS OLD MAN: Well then Gozen Proceed.
(The people clap their hands and bow down to the mummy idol)
KISMET PUBLISHING: EDITORIAL ROOM
(Maya walks in from the elevator when she's stopped by Yuki)
YUKI: Good job on the coverage. There's a letter for you, Maya. But
there's no return address on it...
*MAYA: Thanks Yukki---!*
*MAYA AMANO*
Editor of Kismet Publishing's teen Magazine, Coolest. The game's main
character.
(Maya opens the letter)
LETTER: yOu'rE nEXt...JOKER
MAYA: ........?
(A cub reporter walks up to Maya)
CUB REPORTER: Miss Amano, the chief wants to see you. It must be rough,
always getting the difficult jobs...Even if I work hard, it does no
good. Dreams and reality are such...(sigh) Maybe I should just quit.
(Maya gives him a pat and she walk into the chief's office)
EDITOR-IN-CHIEF MIZUNO: There you are...Amano.
*EDITOR-IN-CHIEF MIZUNO*
Coolest's Editor-in-Chief who hates Maya. An experienced woman who goes
by the book. 30-something and still not married.
EDITOR-IN-CHIEF MIZUNO: You know why you were called in, right? That
interview project you turned in..."Dream of the Rumored Student".. was
crap. It's boring. It has no impact. Who would want to read about a
green brat?
*MAYA: Huh?*
EDITOR-IN-CHIEF MIZUNO: That's a half hearted answer...It doesn't matter
anyway. I'm having you cover the Joker rumor. The kids are saying that
the recent series of murders are the work of the Joker.
EDITOR-IN-CHIEF MIZUNO: Get your ass over to Seven Sisters High and get
the scoop. I'm taking Mayuzumi off this case, so you'll be on your own.
EDITOR-IN-CHIEF MIZUNO: Oh, by the way, you can just forget about this
afternoon...the time off you asked for... If you don't like it, I've got
plenty of other reporters that would love to take your spot. So what are
you waiting for?
(Maya goes back out to the Editorial Room, Yuki and Fujii are waiting
outside)
YUKI: Maya, someone named "Serizawa" called for you while you were in
that meeting. She said she'd meet you at the reception area.
*YUKI MAYUZUMI*
Maya's ex-partner & apprentice. She's not really an employee at Kismet,
but an assistant photographer hired by Fujii.
YUKI: Wait, you're going to a party, huh? To hell with the
weekends...Sometimes you just gotta have a good time.
YUKI: What? You have to work this afternoon!? Give me 5 minutes. I'll
straighten that bitch out!!
*MAYA: Let's be positive! It's nothing.*
YUKI: It's bad enough she split us up. Now you can't take some time off!
Don't give into her, Maya!
YUKI: If you're going over to Seventh, let me call up one of my old
teachers. She'll be able to help you out.
FUJII: Mizuno can be pretty rough...It's unfortunate that she broke you
two up, but she's the boss. Good Luck Mackey.
* SHUNSUKE FUJII*
A freelance photographer. He's also Yuki's highly respected boss. He
calls Yuki "Yukki" and Maya "Mackey".
(Talk to every single person in the office, then go towards the door and
Yuki will say something.)
YUKI: Maya, Miss Serizawa called. She's at the receptionist's desk."
RECEPTION AREA
(Maya takes the elevator down to the lobby area and sees her friend.)
ULALA: Ciao, Ma-ya! Hey, if we don't hurry, all the good men will be
taken!"
*ULALA SERIZAWA*
Maya's friend who sells lingerie. A ceramic girl infatuated with
fortunes. Her bad luck with men has given her a complex.
ULALA: WHAT!? What do you mean you have to work!? Don't give me
that...You weren't planning on going anyway, huh?
ULALA: Oh, I know what it is. You're still thinking about "Deja Vu'
Boy", huh? Ka---! I told you to forget about him! Besides, how close can
you be to a boy that you bumped into at the train station? Even if you
felt you've met him before.
ULALA: What? You're not kidding about this work thing? I've got an idea!
Let me come with you! You'll be able to finish your work in half the
time and we might still make it.
(Talk to Ulala if you wish.)
ULALA (with cell phone): See, look! The Wang Long is saying, "Today is
the day of fateful meetings". We're gonna go to that party!
(Head out the exit to go to Seven Sisters High School in the Rengedai
district of Sumaru City.)
SEVEN SISTERS HIGH SCHOOL-FACULTY ROOM
(Maya and Ulala walk in on Ms. Smith being questioned by the police)
VOICE FROM THE MAIN BRANCH: So Anna Yoshizaka started to behave like a
delinquent after the hit-and-run by Kaneda?
MS. SMITH: I didn't say that! Stop putting words in my mouth! Anna is
not the kind of person who could harm someone!
YOUNG DETECTIVE: Miss, please calm down. We do not suspect that that
student of capable of these crimes. No normal person could have done
something like that...
OFFICER FROM THE MAIN BRANCH: Sergeant Suou, please...I can do with the
commentary on the situation...
OFFICER FROM THE MAIN BRANCH: I guess that will do for now. Thank you
for your cooperation, Ms. Smith.
(Officer leaves the room)
MS. SMITH: You're Tatsuya Suou's brother, right? Has he come back home?
KATSUYA: No he hasn't. What the hell does he think he's doing?
*KATSUYA SUOU*
Young Detective of the Konan PD. His current rank is sergeant. He has a
little brother named Tatsuya.
KATSUYA: I'm sorry that he's worrying you too. Please excuse me, but I
must be going.
(Katsuya leaves the room)
ULALA: Were those guys from the Police Department?
MS. SMITH: Yes... You work for Kismet right? Yuki told me that you were
coming down to interview some of our students.
*SAEKO SMITH*
Teacher of class 3-B. She is very liberal minded & she was hired for her
policy of freedom.
ULALA: It won't take long, but...Are you sure it's alright?
MS. SMITH: I think it's fine, but... Please be careful...Some of the
students are still a little shaken up after the murders...
ULALA: You mean... something happened?
MS. SMITH: The man who ran over a student died, and it's somehow related
to the bizarre murders...I hope they're wrong...
(Talk to people)
ULALA: Speaking of which, you said that Deja Vu Boy goes here, didn't
you?...Maybe you could meet up with him?
MS. SMITH: The rumors about the Joker? The Joker is the only thing that
the students talk about anymore. Supposedly, the Joker is the one who
kills a person you don't like by calling your own cell phone. I don't
know who started it, but it's creepy. It was a lot cuter when they were
just playing "fortune teller"...
MR. KASHIHARA: Hello, I'm a fan of Kismet's occult magazine. You know,
the monthly, "Moo"?
*AKINARI KASHIHARA*
World History teacher for seniors. Though strange, he is a kind teacher.
MR. KASHIHARA: I used to write books like UFO discovered Underneath
City", but now, I like to enjoy them as entertainment.
ROOM 2-A
ULALA: (giggle)...Matchmaker party. Matchmaker party I cant wait.
ROOM 3-B
SERIOUS GUY:...Anna might look like a punk on the outside, but she's not
like that at all. If it wasn't for that accident...
KATSUYA: I see...I got it. Thank you...By the way, is there a Tatsuya
here What has been his activity been lately?
SERIOUS GUY: Eh? Tatsuya?...What did he do this time?
KATSUYA: "This time"!? Uh well...He hasn't done anything, but...I see...
BIKE RACKS
ULALA: Hmmm...You can bike here, huh?
ULALA: Seems like nobody is here. Let's try somewhere else.
COURTYARD
(Maya and Ulala witness the principal yelling at Anna Yoshizaka.)
PRINCIPAL HARDING: Anna Yoshizaka! What's with that attitude!?
*PRINCIPAL HARDING*
The new principal from St. Hermelin High. There, he was hated & known as
"Hardy". Here, he is also hated.
PRINCIPAL HARDING: It's because of you the police are here! We know you
did it! You wanted revenge for being hit, huh!?
ANNA: I didn't do anything...!
*ANNA YOSHIZAKA*
Student of 3-B. She doesn't look it now, but before the accident, she
was a star track athlete.
NORIKO: How cruel...My big sis is not a murderer!!!
*NORIKO KATAYAMA*
She looks up to Anna & is also a track & field athlete.
PRINCIPAL HARDING: How do we know that? I let you slip because you were
an all-star, but you're useless if you can't run!!! I'm waiting for you
to quit school. You can quit along with your friend Suou!
(Principal Harding walks away and Maya and Ulala go to where Anna and
Norkio are standing.)
ULALA: Hey, you! Aren't you gonna say anything!?
ANNA: Who...are you...?
(Maya explains)
ANNA: From a magazine...? I see...You guys probaly think I killed
him...Write whatever you want...
(Anna starts to walk, but she stops.)
ANNA: I'm...gonna kill him...
(Anna walks away.)
ULALA: That was just too cruel. I'm gonna find that old man and
complain, Ma-ya!
(Talk to people.)
ULALA: I bet he's hiding in the principal's office. I hate those kind of
people the most! I'm gonna complain.
NORIKO: That's so cruel...All he did was have his dreams of success come
true, and what's with this...My big sister's just unlucky in her time of
Joka.
*THE STAUTE PRAISING THE ALMIGHTY HARDING*
(Look at me! Follow me! Don't rely on me! A contradictory statement is
written. It's annoying just to look at.)
MAYA OKAMURA: This rock look suspicious, huh? But nothing comes up if
you search it.
*MAYA OKAMURA*
World history teacher of class 2-C who also has the first name, "Maya".
I sense that I've met her somewhere..?
MAYA OKAMURA: Um...Have we met somewhere?...It's just that I felt we
have.
*NARURATO STONE*
(A rock duck up during construction. It's made of thermanite, but it
gives off a magnetic energy. Legend has it evil demons known as
"Narurato Hotefu" were sealed in this stone by "Hiremon Shounin".)
PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE
(Maya is knocking on the door, and when she comes in, she finds
Principal Harding dead on the floor.)
MAYA: .........!!
(Ulala comes in and when she sees Harding's dead body, she kneels on the
floor.)
ULALA: W...what's with...this...? What the...hell!?
(Katsuya enters)
KATSUYA: Excuse me sir, I'd like to ask you...
KATSUYA: Th, this is...!?
KATSUYA: The note he's holding...That pattern of killing...It's him!!!
KATSUYA: Are you the first one on-scene? Did you see anyone suspicious!?
Anything suspicious when you got here? When did you get here?
ULALA: I...I don't know!!! Stop asking me things all at once!!!
(Anna comes in.)
ULALA: Y...You're...You don't think...!
ANNA: I, It's not me...I didn't do anything...!!!
(Anna walks out.)
KATSUYA: You! Wait!!!
(Katsuya and Maya chase after Anna.)
ULALA: H, Hey...Ma-ya!? Why are you leaving me--!!
HALLWAY
(As the party goes ahead a demon appears to block them.)
ULALA: Wha...What's that...? Wha...What the hell's goin' on!?
SOMEONE'S VOICE: Can't you tell? It's a demon, a demon.
(Everyone senses a presence and man wearing a paper bag over his head
walks up to them from behind carrying a sword.)
KATSUYA: A, demon...? Who the hell are you!? And, what's this feeling...
BAG MAN: You got the letter, right? It's me...Joker.
*JOKER*
The rumored "mystery man" who kills by request when someone calls
themself on their cellular phone.
MAYA: .........!!
JOKER: I took a request. So I'm here to kill you. That's what the rumors
say.
ULALA: Wha...!?
JOKER: Maya Amano...I know you so ve---ry well...What you even did on
the "Other Side".
(Another demon appears by the Joker's side.)
JOKER: Try and call your precious "Persona"! If ya don't, these guys'll
eat ya!
(Joker throws out 2 guns on the floor.)
JOKER: Use these guns. You CAN use one, can't you? BANG-BANG! With both
hands.
KATSUYA: Criminal suspect #501! You're under arrest for illegal firearm
possession and threatening a peace officer!!!
(You'll hear the characters speak)
JOKER: "Persona, Persona!!" Call out your Persona!!
KATSUYA: What is...this feeling!?
(Katsuya's Persona is awakened)
HELIOS: I am Helios..Bearing the ancient sun, I am the one who violates
the night, I shall become your loyal chariot!!
(Helios casts an Agi Spell, on the demon, but no effect, the demon than
attacks Ulala)
ULALA: Kya-----! I can't take it anymore!!
(Ulala's Persona is awakened)
CALLISTO: I am Callisto..The one known as the beautiful of the
nymphs...One who is weary of romance, I will show you true love.
(Callisto uses a Magma Spell on the demon, but still no effect, Maya
then falls to the ground)
MAYA: .........!?
(Maya's Persona is awakened)
MAIA: I am thou...Thou art I..I cometh from the sea of thy heart...I am
the brilliant mother, Maia...
(Maia uses an Hama Spell and instanly kills the demon)
JOKER: Hyaha...! That's it, keep it up!!! But I'm not gonna kill you
now...I'll have the demons kill you slowly. Remember! You can't run from
fate!
(Joker casts a Megido Spell on Maya and co. and they pass out. Then an
FMV plays of Maya having visions of many things like Seven Sisters HS,
Tatsuya, a model airplane, Sumaru City floating, etc. and then ends up
in Philemon's Lair)
PHILEMON'S LAIR
ULALA: So we're dead...? What the hell was my life all about...?
(A golden butterfly appears in the center, then turns into a fading
image of a man.)
SOMEONE'S VOICE: That is not rue..I..invited...you...
PHILEMON: My name is Philemon...I....exist between consciousness and
death...The one...who has granted you...the Personas.
*PHILEMON*
Ruler over the ego, revealer of truth, and creator of all unconscious
actions. It seems he has weakened for some reason.
KATSUYA: #501 said the same thing...I ask this as I am in a dream, "What
is a "Persona"?
PHILEMON: Your powers...are hidden deep within your heart...Like a god
or devil, it is "another self"...Like a god...filled with love...Like a
demon...merciless...Humans go through life with many faces...Your current
appearance is just another face. ...And so is your Persona...one of
many...
KATSUYA: Another you, with physical forms...? What is your purpose in
giving us these?
ULALA: Th, They've actually formed a conversation...
PHILEMON: I...have something,,,to ask of...you...I...underestimated...the...Their...string of misfortune was
too deep. They...made...tears of blood..."This Side"...Only you...can save...
KATSUYA: What's wrong? I can't understand you.
(Philemon briefly shows himself and then turns back in his golden
butterfly form.)
PHILEMON: Warning...rumors will become reality......light...within
hearts...of people...
BACK IN THE HALLWAY
KATSUYA: Are you...alright...?
ULALA: Well, it seems we're all "alive"...
(Katsuya makes a phone call.)
KATSUYA: It's Suou. Get me Captain Shimazu...# 501 was at Seven
Sisters, the suspect has killed the principal and is at large.
ULALA: Uh...Ma-ya...you okay...?
*MAYA: YOU okay, Ulala...?*
ULALA: Y, Yeah...I'm fine...
KATSUYA: Backup is on its way. I'll go after that girl, you two
stay......with me...You're also in danger.
ULALA: Why her? The suspect is that "bag head"?
KATSUYA: If it's just like he said, it's a contract killing. I can't
exclude her possible involvement.
ULALA: Well, she did say that she would kill him...Is this related to
the dream? "Rumors become reality" is what he said...The Joker rumor is
true, then...?
KATSUYA: "It can't be" is what I'd like to say, but I can't...Not after
seeing all this. I accept the fact he borrowed our consciousness to give
us clues. We have to pursue whatever he giives us.
ULALA: So that's why you were so calm...
KATSUYA: Come with me. I can't leave you alone.
ULALA: I, I'm going too...I'm her friend...I couldn't stand it if you
left me here.
KATSUYA: Fine...this is an extreme circumstance. I'll let you have the
guns he left behind. Use it only to protect yourself.
ULALA: I, I don't need...this. I DO know how to box, you know.
(Maya takes the guns and Ms. Smith arrives.)
MS. SMITH: What's wrong!? I heard a loud commotion...
KATSUYA: The principal has been murdered. Backup will be here soon, so
don't worry. Tell the students to stay in their classrooms.
(Ms. Smith nods.)
JANITOR'S ROOM
(Talk to people)
ULALA: Hmm? The mouth on this poster is wet... ...Oh, well.
KATSUYA: The key to the clock tower is missing from here. It could be a
thief...In any case, I should contact lost and found...
JANITOR: I can't find the key to the clock tower. Where did I put it...?
SCHOOL NURSE: You always leave it on top of the desk.
JANITOR: It's not there...Did someone take it?
FACULTY ROOM
(Talk to people)
ULALA: I though that the Joker was just a rumor...That's...why...I...I
never thought a rumor would become real.
MS. SMITH: Anyway, I told them to stay in their classrooms. I hope some
backup arrives soon...
KATSUYA: Helios...So that's another "me", they say...Another me,
oblivious to myself...How Ironic that it has to be a cat.
MR. KASHIHARA: I can't believe the principal was killed. Co, Could it
be the Last Battalion...? N, No, that can't be...
MR. SOUKA: I got it! A murder in the principal's office! I got it! This
is serious! So what's wrong? Huh---? The clock tower key is missing from
the faculty room? Mu---!? I wonder who took it out? Here's a spare
key! Please use it---!!
MR. SOUKA: The suspect could still be around-!! That's scary-! Are the
students safe-!?
MR. ASOU: I see. The Principal killed? ...I see. ...So the suspect might
still be in the school? I see.
7 SISTERS HS 3F
KATSUYA: Again, this feeling...The Personas are calling each other...?
This must be #501!
CLOCK TOWER
(The party looks around.)
ULALA: Ah, there, over there!
(Anna and Joker are up on the ledge.)
JOKER: Lady, you are my partner. I'm here for you.
ANNA: I don't even know you...I never did the Joker curse...
JOKER: No need to worry. You'll understand me and the "Other Side". If
you do, you'll realize that "This Side" is the evil side. I won't hurt
you, let's go.
(enter battle)
KATSUYA: #501, get away from that girl!
JOKER: Don't get in my way!! You can just play with them!!
(Joker summons 3 demons to deal with Maya. and co.)
(after battle)
(Anna is lying unconscious on the floor.)
JOKER: Not bad...Oh, Fine, just sleep for a bit.
(Joker uses his Persona and casts a sleeping spell on Maya and co.)
KATSUYA: Ugh...!? Shi...
(The party falls a sleep and the screen goes black.)
JOKER: Y, You're...!?
(Sword sounds can be heard. Only Maya wakes up and Tatsuya has just
brought Anna down.)
DEJA VU BOY: He got away...
*DEJA VU BOY*
A young man acting older. He ran into me. For some strange reason, I
feel I know him for long ago...
(Tatsuya tosses the school emblem to Maya.)
DEJA VU BOY: Go to a detective's office called "Kuzunoha". It's an
Aoba...Spread a rumor that you'll be safe with that emblem, even from
"him"...
DEJA VU BOY: And lastly, do not involve yourself in this.
Forget...everything...
(Tatsuya leaves.)
HALLWAY TO PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE
(The police has arrived and sealed off Harding's office.)
DETECTIVE TANI: The student profiles aren't reliable. So, it looks like
another guy has drawn the Old Maid card?
CAPTAIN SHIMAZU: Those two are the first on-scene? Where's the student
witness?
*CAPTAIN SHIMAZU*
He is in charge of the bizarre serial murder case division. An elite
crime investigate administrator.
KATSUYA: I sent her to the police hospital. The "Old Maid" is after the
witness. Put some guards on her.
CAPTAIN SHIMAZU: So I heard you came in contact with #501...report it.
(Katsuya does so.)
DETECTIVE TANI: Suou...You rest. You've been working too hard since the
"Old Maid" appeared. Take your dad to a vacation spot once in a while.
KATSUYA: Mr. Tani...!!
CAPTAIN SHIMAZU: Officer Suou, as of today, you are off the team. I
heard that you were a superior detective. But, it's a shame.
(As Katsuya walks.)
CAPTAIN SHIMAZU: "Like father, like son"...Huh...
(Katsuya walks to where Maya and Ulala are standing.)
ULALA: That's why I tried to stop you...So, what are you gonna do?
You're not really going on vacation, are you?
KATSUYA: Don't be absurd...The only officer to see him was me. I WILL
be the one to arrest him.
ULALA: Well then...How about spreading that "anti-Joker" rumor the Deja
Vu Boy was talking about?
KATSUYA: That's absurd...It's not logical. There are times when rumors
do come true, but that's only...
ULALA: Would you stop calling me "absurd"? Can everything that happened
up to now be explained!? You rock-heard with sideburns!
KATSUYA: Sideburns...Fine...Whatever. There's the matter of the boy who
saved us. Let's hear what that detective has to say.
(Talk to people)
ULALA: (sigh) We can't go o the party after all. Well, it can't be
helped...
KATSUYA: That "Old Maid" is not normal, but I'm stuck on what he was
saying...About the "Other Side", and "This Side"...
NORIKO: The principal died...? But, I know that my big sis didn't ask
the Joker to...I just know it...
MS.SMITH: I was just looking for Katayama...Why do the schools I'm at
always have these kinds of incidents...?
GATTEN SUSHI
RUMORMONGER CHUNKY: Well, I'm a really good salesman, but I've become "freindly"
with rumors. Now they call me a "Rumormonger".
*KENTA YOKOUCHI*
A graduate of St. Hermelin...A successful salesman who knows a lot about rumors. His Persona
seems to have helped his career.
RUMORMONGER CHUNKY: Rumors can come in handy for sales. So, if you heara good rumor,
cometell me. I'll tell you one of mine in return.
KANKICHI: I moved here just recently, but I used to have this shop in Hirasaka. Why'd I move
you ask? It's the fortune telling! I was told that I'll do dod business if I opened my shop here! I
had to move here!
KUZUNOHA
TAMMY: Welcome! We take cases of all kinds, from secret love affairs to
ghosts!
*TAMMY*
While going to college, she works as a Devil Summoner.
KATSUYA: Well, no. I want to ask something...
(A moment later.)
CHIEF TODOROKI: I've never taken a request to spread rumors, but someone
did come in to ask if the Joker rumor was spread.
*CHIEF TODOROKI*
He used to be a flunky, but he all of a sudden got smart. Now, he works
as a Devil Summoner.
KATSUYA: What kind of person was he?
(Tammy explains.)
ULALA: That's the "Deja Vu Boy". Ma-ya says so, too.
CHIEF TODOROKI: Tell me a little more. I don't know what you're talking
about.
(Ulala explains)
CHIEF TODOROKI: I see...very interesting. The bizarre serial murders,
the rumors of the Joker, the sighting of demons...It all makes sense if
the rumors are true. I'll accept the request to spread that anti-Joker
rumor. It's a good chance to see if a rumor can become reality.
ULALA: You seemed to have accepted that quickly. You're not gonna report
it to the hospital?
CHIEF TODOROKI: The world is filled with mystery. We can't be held down
by "common sense". Well then...A real man goes by his own rules. First,
ask me to spread the rumor.
(Talk to people.)
ULALA: Ask him Ma-ya. You got nothing to lose.
KATSUYA: Telling us to spread rumors means the boy must believe it
too...Who is he...?
TAMMY: Don't ask me for a job, ask the chief.
CHIEF TODOROKI: Everything has to be settled. That will never change.
Remember the procedure.
(After spreading the rumor.)
CHIEF TODOROKI: Anything else?
CHIEF TODOROKI: The request is now approved. Check the results yourself.
If you have any other rumors to spread, get information from the
rumormongers. They're everywhere.
TAMMY: That "Deja Vu Boy" seems to be looking for the source of the
rumors...I know of a good underground page.
(The party stands by the computer)
TAMMY: "Baofu", who's a friend of the chief, has a web page with all the
rumors in this city. He's in a chat room right now.
BAOFU: Rabbit, you saw the Joker...? They say no one escapes once he's
after you. How'd you survive?
BAOFU: -So you're saying I wouldn't believe it? ...Oh, well...I'll know
when I see you. We'll meet at 2X Slash in Aoba, Rabbit. Tell the worker
my handle, and do what they tell you...
KATSUYA: Sounds suspicious...Should we go?
2X SLASH
UNMOTIVATED WAITER: Welcome. Rabbit, yes, I've heard. Use that red
machine over there.
(Maya and co. are at the red computer.)
BAOFU: Rabbit, I see how you survived. I didn't imagine 3 Persona users.
ULALA: Wai...How'd you know that!?
(Everyone senses a resonance.)
KATSUYA: This is...a Persona!?
(Baofu is shown and he gets off the seat.)
BAOFU: You people have just became Persona users...You don't know how to
use your "Chi". It's obvious...
*BAOFU*
He is a Tap Buster, and has a webpage that collects all the city's
rumors. He says he's from Taiwan.
BAOFU: Follow me...
PARABELLUM
(The party sits at a table together.)
BAOFU: ...I see. Interesting...
KATSUYA: We said about all we know. Now it's your turn.
BAOFU: From what I've researched, the Joker rumors are taken from some
TV show, which then start to spread like wildfire. But before that, not
even the "J" in Joker was known to the public. There's just one
exception...Where do you think it is...? The phone of Tatsuzou Sudou?
ULALA: Who is Tatsuzou Sudou?
KATSUYA: The current foreign minister...How would you know you?...A wire
tap...? That's illegal.
BAOFU: Don't be so stiff...It's been going around that he's been doing
some pretty dirty stuff underground. That 10-year unsolved serial arson-
murder case...It's an infamous rumor between police and investigators
that it was his son.
KATSUYA: Is that..true!?
BAOFU: What...you don't know? Well, either way, about this incident, you
don't think it was a coincidence, do you?
ULALA: Then the foreign minister Tatsuzou Sudou has something to do with
the Joker case!?
BAOFU: "We" are going to find out about that now. Take me with you. I
know where Sudou's son lives. You guys get clues on the Joker. As long
as I'm by the next target, I will get closer to the truth?...Not a bad
deal.
KATSUYA: What do you plan to do with the truth? Your objective is
blackmail, huh?
BAOFU: Hehe...My intentions are honorable, I can assure you I can't let
evil prevail...
KATSUYA: ...What should we do? (to Maya) You're being targeted, you
decide.
BAOFU: You understand what I'm talking about. Well then, let me test
something first...
(Baofu makes phone call.)
BAOFU: Yeah, Todoroki? I'm in Parabellum right now. Spread a rumor that
they're selling weapons here.
ULALA: Hey...What are you trying to do?
BAOFU: I don't believe that rumors come true...So I'm testing it out.
(A moment later.)
(The barkeeper appears with a box of weapons.)
BAOFU: I'm surprised...Hell, it actually worked...
BARKEEP: We have other weapons lined up. Please feel free to ask for
anything.
(Barkeeper leaves.)
ULALA: T-Then, does that mean the rumor about the emblem is now true!?
Then you're alright, Ma-ya!!
BAOFU: So whatcha gonna do with the emblem? If you keep it, the Joker
will just stay away. You don't think you'll run into the Deja Vu Brat
anymore?...Think of why he gave you that...
(An FMV plays of the party at the table. Maya takes the emblem and burns
it with a lighter.)
CITY MAP: AOBA
BAOFU: Sudou's son should be at the sanitarium at Mt. Mifune.
KATSUYA: I see...Ms. Amano, let's check it out.
BAOFU: Hold on! There's a place called the Velvet Room around here. It
has something to do with demons...Considering the situation you're in
right now, you'll need all the help you can get. Let's go in and
have a look...
KATSUYA: What's that? What does that have to do with anything?
BAOFU: I don't even feel like explaining...Just follow me...
VELVET ROOM
IGOR: Welcome to the Velvet Room. This is where the different forms of
people's hearts are called to awaken...By order of our Master Philemon,
we have been awaiting you. My name is Igor.
BELLADONNA: I am Belladonna (music note) I sing for those who challenge
(music note) The monster known as oneself (music note)
NAMELESS: I am Nameless...The piano player who opens the closed doors of
the heart...
DEMON ARTIST: I am the Demon Artist. I am the artist who draws the gods
and demons that dwell within people.
IGOR: We are told to assist the awakening of your new Personas. I am
very glad to make your acquaintance...
(Talk to the party members)
ULALA: So in other words...you can have all sorts of Personas summoned
here? That's pretty convenient...Come to think of it, back in high
school. I learned Persona from you and played it....I wonder
if it has anything to do with this?
KATSUYA: Followers of Philemon...? Then that was not a dream at all...
...I dreamt this as a kid....A golden butterfly...masked man...blue
room...The night I played Persona with Tatsuya...
BAOFU: So what do you think? Useful, huh? Listen, Personas are just
tools...Use them according to the situation. Don't ever think that's
you...I'd never admit that's me...You can only count on yourself in the
end...
BAOFU: Huh? Do I hate Personas...? Yeah, I hate them...You can't use
them when you need 'em most...Don't ever rely on them too much.
BAOFU: Huh? Why am I able to use Personas...? That's what I'd like to
know...though I might've played that game when I was a kid...
AREA: MT. MIFUNE - HIGHWAY
SHADY SECURITY GUARD: There was an accident up ahead. There's nothing
to see here. Move along!
KATSUYA: Accident? Have you contacted the police?
SHADY SECURITY GUARD: Not yet, it just happened. Now move along!
KATSUYA: ...There's nothing we can do do...I understand, thank you.
(As you walk away.)
KATSUYA: What do you think?
BAOFU: This is suspicious. There's another road down at the bottom of
the hill. It's longer, but it leads to the back.
KATSUYA: Alright, let's take that.
SANITARIUM: REAR ENTRANCE
(Two dead Mafia men are lying dead and the walls and glass are damaged.)
ULALA: Aaaahhhhh! A, another dead person!!
BAOFU: Don't make such a loud fuss...
KATSUIYA: They're not ordinary, they are all armed. Kuroboshi...Fired
off all rounds...Cuts, stab wounds, bruises, internal injuries...They
tried, but got killed by demons. Guess that about sums it up. They're
not Japanese.
BAOFU: It's the Tien Tao Lien...The Tiawanese Mafia. I recognize one of
the faces...
KATSUYA: Your buddies...?
BAOFU: Say that again, I'll put a hole in your face.
*MAYA: S, Stop it Baofu...*
BAOFU: Ch...These guys are dogs of Tatsuzou. He's been on good terms
with them for 5 years when he
was the Minister of Justice.
KATSUYA: ...Wait a second. Why would Tatsuzou and the Mafia attack the
very sanitarium his own son was in?
BAOFU: How the hell should I know? We came to find that out.
(Talk to party members)
ULALA: I've been so shaken up these days...Why do I have to put up with
this? Why does a rumor come true...
KATSUYA: Demons, murderers, and now the Mafia...Is this still Japan
here? I can't understand it all...
CORPSE OF TAIWANESE MAFIA: (Such a brutal way to die...)
BAOFU: With this, I don't know what's coming up...You ready?...This is
our last chance to turn back.
TRISH'S FOUNTAIN
(Talk to party members)
ULALA: Wow<3...Look Ma-ya, a fairy!!! I've never seen one before!!
Should I take a picture?
KATSUYA:W...What is this room? It feels the same as Philemon's
dimension...Is this another world, too...?
BAOFU: I don't know much about this room. That flying bug is the owner,
right? Why don't you ask her?
TRISH: This world give and take...Oh...You're new here, right? I'm
Trish. I protect this place of recovery. I heal your wounded bodies.
*TRISH*
A stingy fairy who is obsessed with money. She's been banned from the
Fairy world and can't return until she does good, but ...
TRISH: Not for free, of course. This world is give and take! You can
recover from anything depending on your wallet!
ULALA: Wa...She's charging us? She has a cute face, but what a money-
grubbing fairy!
SANITARIUM 2F: ROOM 206
(Talk to party members)
BAOFU: It seems that Tatsuzou is making enormous contributions to this
sanitarium. He probably buried them under the mask of charity, but she
spilled her guts quickly. Well, it can't be helped in this situation.
ULALA: This nurse and said she saw a mysterious armed group take on some
demons! Could it be those dead Mafia guys back there?...
KATSUYA: That nurse seems to be very confused, but considering this
horrible condition. Everything must be true.
HIDING NURSE: Y...You're a...hu...man...right? P-P-P...Please save me!!
Demons...Demons have appeared!!...He did it...He called the demons...The
patient in Room 303...Tatsuya Sudou summoned the demons! The demons
attacked my patients and my co-workers...It's no lie!...You saw them
too, right!? All those corpses!
SANITARIUM 3F
KATSUYA: Wait, Miss Amano. "Tatsuya Sudou"...This must be Sudou's room.
Let's investigate it.
ROOM 303
(The party enters the room. It has words and stuff written everywhere on
the walls.)
KATSUYA: What...is this...?
KATSUYA: These pictures on the wall...They're all victims of the serial
murders...It seems that Sudou's son is the "Old Maid"...
BAOFU: What's wrong...Amano? You look pale...Something wrong with that
peom thing...?
MAYA: .........
KATSUYA: "Oracle of Maia"...?
BAOFU: The twinkling star of Pleiades sets time in motion. Dance of
pleasure, Feast of shadow, Tongue of stranger, Atonement lights above.
The lion's roar echoes throughout...The 5 skulls shine in Hades...The
holy cross shines in the Heavens...The moment the starts stop
rising...The beat of the virgin Maia also ceases...Paradise remains on
earth...What does all that crap mean...?
KATSUYA: Heaven's cross...Is it the "Grand Cross" that occurred this
summer? Is...this...some sort of prophecy?
ULALA: You mean where all the planets in the solar system align in a
cross formation...? But nothing happened...?
(Maya falls down.)
KATSUYA: What's wrong Miss Amano?
ULALA: Does your chest hurt again, Ma-ya?
KATSUYA: Again...?
ULALA: After running into Deja Vu Boy, she got this mysterious bruise
that nags her...She doesn't know how she got it...
(Maya gets up and starts talking.)
ULALA: Fine...? You sure about that?
BAOFU: This place ain't normal...This room's vibes can't be trusted.
Let's move on.
(Talk to party members.)
ULALA: W, What's with this big eye...Gross! Nyar...Whatever is written
on it...I can't read it...
KATSUYA: He seemed to know you...But what about you does he know...
BAOFU: I see why Sudou was hiding him...I guess you can't blame him with
such a crazy son. Like father, like son...
ROUGH DRAFT OF POEM: (The same contents as the finished one. I don't
like the feeling of it...)
PICTURES ON THE WALL: (The pictures of the murder victims...)
ORACLE OF MAIA: (The twinkling star of Pleiades sets time in motion.
Dance of pleasure, Feast of shadow, Tongue of stranger, Atonement lights
above. The lion's roar echoes throughout...The 5 skulls shine in
Hades...The holy cross shines in the Heavens...The moment the starts
stop rising...The beat of the virgin Maia also ceases...Paradise remains
on earth...I've heard this before...My, my bruise is hurting again...)
SANITARIUM 3F
KATSUYA: I know you're here, #501...Sudou! Everyone, be careful....
SANITARIUM 4F: DIRECTOR'S OFFICE
(There are more dead bodies inside and a demon. Tatsuya Sudou is looking
in the mirror and Maya and co. come in.)
TATSUYA SUDOU: You recall the "Other Side" yet?
(Maya shakes her head no.)
TATSUYA SUDOU: I see...I feel sorry for that brat.
KATSUYA: You're...Tatsuya Sudou, aren't you? This serial killing...the
killings 10 years ago...You did these, didn't you...?
TATSUYA SUDOU: You mean back then? Ah...How nostalgic. The voices won't
let me off with just arson. They said they needed a sacrifice. With the
chest all carved out alive...with the tendons cut so they can't escape.
BAOFU: You piece of garbage...How the hell did you get that kind of
power being locked up for 10 years?
TATSUYA SUDOU: "Kotodama", y'know, Kotodama. Y'know? You say something,
and it'll happen? The voices tell me anything...That poor excuse for a
dad did this to me.
KATSUYA: Kotodama...? The rumors...? You said that your father did this
to you. Then, why is he after your life?
(A phone is ringing.)
TATSUYA SUDOU: Shhhhhh...It's from the guys outside.
(Baofu takes a look out the window.)
OUTSIDE
(There is a black car parked in the lot. Two mafia guys and a man in a
white unifrom are standing by it.)
MAN WITH SCAR: ...? He is...
DIRECTOR'S OFFICE
BAOFU: .........!!
(Baofu walks out.)
ULALA: Wai...Where are you going!?
(Tatsuya Sudou picks up the phone.)
TATSUYA SUDOU: If you're wondering about your men, I already ripped open
their guts. I'm free, you got that? "I'm coming for you soon!"...Give
that message to my f##kin' dad!
(Tatsuya Sudou hangs up the phone.)
KATSUYA: What do you hope to accomplish!? To keep on killing!? To get
revenge on your father!?
TATSUYA SUDOU: Hyahaha! I used to kill for pleasure, but now I only kill
because people give me a call...(to Ulala) Right?
ULALA: .........
TATSUYA SUDOU: My real purpose is...to right the wrong. "This Side" is
wrong, and the "Other Side" is right. My f##kin' dad doesn't understand
that...You understand, don't you?
(Maya shakes her head no.)
MAYA:.........
(enter battle)
TATSUYA SUDOU: Ch...How long are you gonna keep up this act!? I'll make
you remember...If this guy doesn't eat you, come to the Sky Museum!!
(laughs)
(Tatsuya Sudou disappears, leaving the party to deal with the demon.
Katsuya fires a shot after Sudou.)
KATSUYA: Wait, Sudou!!
(after battle)
OUTSIDE
(The parking lot is now empty and Baofu is standing there alone. Maya
and co. come outside.)
ULALA: There he is!
ULALA: Hey, you! Why'd you disappear when we needed you!? Because of
you...
(Baofu smokes a cigarette.)
KATSUYA: You seem to have a reason...Did you know him?
BAOFU: .........
(Katsuya makes a phone call.)
BAOFU: Knock it off...They'll find out without a report from us.
Besides, how are you gonna explain this?
KATSUYA: I am an officer of the law. I can't just let it go...
BAOFU: Heh...You can't look the other way, huh...? You're too soft...
KATSUYA: Let the firemen and police handle this, and let's head to the
Sky Museum. We can't let Sudou stay on the loose...

KATSUYA: T...This is...the work of a burglar!? Is anything missing? You
should check immediately. I'll
begin a search!
BAOFU: Hmmm...That's a nice stereo. It's a decent addition to this room.
ULALA: Oh yeah, I didn't tell you, but recently I've started to learn
the flamenco dance. Wanna see it later?
I'm really good <3...
ULALA: Come to think of it, how many years has it been since we began
rooming together? Really, what a rough life...

knew I saw you somewhere...So that's where...
JUN: Then, did you give me this letter...? Someone gave me a letter
asking me to come here to meet a "freind"...I don't know who it can
be...

What are YOU doing even listening to him? You're so vulnerable to
younger men! We don't know where the Voice Man is...

TATSUYA SUDOU'S VOICE: Hya----hahaha! I set some bombs to start a fire.
First ones go off in the stairwell, others floors are timed to follow.

It shows the collective unconsciousness with Nyarlathotep's lair and it shows a mummy idol and an old man (Tatsuzou Sudou) up close with an evil grin. And finally it shows Maya and Tatsuya using thier Personae and it appears they're at Philemon's lair and then the title screen shows up.)
[Choose Start]
(An FMV plays of a man in red clothes named Tatsuya Suou. He is sitting
in a garage sleeping and he recalls a moment ago where he had met Maya
at a train station not to long ago. Then he starts to have several
flashbacks from events that happened on the "Other Side" (such as the
Joker and saying goodbye to Eikichi, Lisa, and Jun and etc.) And it
shows Maya dying and Tatsuya hears Maya's last words before she died:
"Please forget about me....Go on without me..." Then Tatsuya wakes up
and next he is at Araya Shrine, just staring at it. He has an image of
it burning, and then the image fades away. )
ARAYA SHRINE
(Tatsuya is standing at Araya Shrine staring at it in a gaze, then an old woman
walks up to him).
OLD WOMAN: You look so depressed...Did you lose something important?
YOUNG MAN: ......
OLD WOMAN: I see...You didn't lose anything. You found your...memories.
OLD WOMAN: Humans are such sinful creatures. This place used to be so
lively with activity. As time passes, things dear are forgotten.
OLD WOMAN: Would you be better off forgetting them, or remembering
them..? You've been enslaved in this dilemma...
(Tatsuya is just about to exit when he stops.)
YOUNG MAN: That's right...I remember now...A sin that must not
exist...How do I atone?
SOMEWHERE---CONFRENCE ROOM
8 people are standing in two rows when an old man walks in between them.

EDITOR-IN-CHIEF MIZUNO: You know why you were called in, right? That
interview project you turned in..."Dream of the Rumored Student".. was
crap. It's boring. It has no impact. Who would want to read about a
green brat?
*MAYA: Huh?*
EDITOR-IN-CHIEF MIZUNO: That's a half hearted answer...It doesn't matter
anyway. I'm having you cover the Joker rumor. The kids are saying that
the recent series of murders are the work of the Joker.
EDITOR-IN-CHIEF MIZUNO: Get your ass over to Seven Sisters High and get
the scoop. I'm taking Mayuzumi off this case, so you'll be on your own.
EDITOR-IN-CHIEF MIZUNO: Oh, by the way, you can just forget about this
afternoon...the time off you asked for... If you don't like it, I've got
plenty of other reporters that would love to take your spot. So what are
you waiting for?
(Maya goes back out to the Editorial Room, Yuki and Fujii are waiting
outside)
YUKI: Maya, someone named "Serizawa" called for you while you were in
that meeting. She said she'd meet you at the reception area.
*YUKI MAYUZUMI*
Maya's ex-partner & apprentice. She's not really an employee at Kismet,
but an assistant photographer hired by Fujii.
YUKI: Wait, you're going to a party, huh? To hell with the
weekends...Sometimes you just gotta have a good time.
YUKI: What? You have to work this afternoon!? Give me 5 minutes. I'll
straighten that bitch out!!
*MAYA: Let's be positive! It's nothing.*
YUKI: It's bad enough she split us up. Now you can't take some time off!
Don't give into her, Maya!
YUKI: If you're going over to Seventh, let me call up one of my old
teachers. She'll be able to help you out.
FUJII: Mizuno can be pretty rough...It's unfortunate that she broke you
two up, but she's the boss. Good Luck Mackey.
* SHUNSUKE FUJII*
A freelance photographer. He's also Yuki's highly respected boss. He
calls Yuki "Yukki" and Maya "Mackey".
(Talk to every single person in the office, then go towards the door and
Yuki will say something.)
YUKI: Maya, Miss Serizawa called. She's at the receptionist's desk."
RECEPTION AREA
(Maya takes the elevator down to the lobby area and sees her friend.)
ULALA: Ciao, Ma-ya! Hey, if we don't hurry, all the good men will be
taken!"
*ULALA SERIZAWA*
Maya's friend who sells lingerie. A ceramic girl infatuated with
fortunes. Her bad luck with men has given her a complex.
ULALA: WHAT!? What do you mean you have to work!? Don't give me
that...You weren't planning on going anyway, huh?
ULALA: Oh, I know what it is. You're still thinking about "Deja Vu'
Boy", huh? Ka---! I told you to forget about him! Besides, how close can
you be to a boy that you bumped into at the train station? Even if you
felt you've met him before.
ULALA: What? You're not kidding about this work thing? I've got an idea!
Let me come with you! You'll be able to finish your work in half the
time and we might still make it.
(Talk to Ulala if you wish.)
ULALA (with cell phone): See, look! The Wang Long is saying, "Today is
the day of fateful meetings". We're gonna go to that party!
(Head out the exit to go to Seven Sisters High School in the Rengedai
district of Sumaru City.)
SEVEN SISTERS HIGH SCHOOL-FACULTY ROOM
(Maya and Ulala walk in on Ms. Smith being questioned by the police)
VOICE FROM THE MAIN BRANCH: So Anna Yoshizaka started to behave like a
delinquent after the hit-and-run by Kaneda?
MS. SMITH: I didn't say that! Stop putting words in my mouth! Anna is
not the kind of person who could harm someone!
YOUNG DETECTIVE: Miss, please calm down. We do not suspect that that
student of capable of these crimes. No normal person could have done
something like that...
OFFICER FROM THE MAIN BRANCH: Sergeant Suou, please...I can do with the
commentary on the situation...
OFFICER FROM THE MAIN BRANCH: I guess that will do for now. Thank you
for your cooperation, Ms. Smith.
(Officer leaves the room)
MS. SMITH: You're Tatsuya Suou's brother, right? Has he come back home?
KATSUYA: No he hasn't. What the hell does he think he's doing?
*KATSUYA SUOU*
Young Detective of the Konan PD. His current rank is sergeant. He has a
little brother named Tatsuya.
KATSUYA: I'm sorry that he's worrying you too. Please excuse me, but I
must be going.
(Katsuya leaves the room)
ULALA: Were those guys from the Police Department?
MS. SMITH: Yes... You work for Kismet right? Yuki told me that you were
coming down to interview some of our students.
*SAEKO SMITH*
Teacher of class 3-B. She is very liberal minded & she was hired for her
policy of freedom.
ULALA: It won't take long, but...Are you sure it's alright?
MS. SMITH: I think it's fine, but... Please be careful...Some of the
students are still a little shaken up after the murders...
ULALA: You mean... something happened?
MS. SMITH: The man who ran over a student died, and it's somehow related
to the bizarre murders...I hope they're wrong...
(Talk to people)
ULALA: Speaking of which, you said that Deja Vu Boy goes here, didn't
you?...Maybe you could meet up with him?
MS. SMITH: The rumors about the Joker? The Joker is the only thing that
the students talk about anymore. Supposedly, the Joker is the one who
kills a person you don't like by calling your own cell phone. I don't
know who started it, but it's creepy. It was a lot cuter when they were
just playing "fortune teller"...
MR. KASHIHARA: Hello, I'm a fan of Kismet's occult magazine. You know,
the monthly, "Moo"?
*AKINARI KASHIHARA*
World History teacher for seniors. Though strange, he is a kind teacher.
MR. KASHIHARA: I used to write books like UFO discovered Underneath
City", but now, I like to enjoy them as entertainment.
ROOM 2-A
ULALA: (giggle)...Matchmaker party. Matchmaker party I cant wait.
ROOM 3-B
SERIOUS GUY:...Anna might look like a punk on the outside, but she's not
like that at all. If it wasn't for that accident...
KATSUYA: I see...I got it. Thank you...By the way, is there a Tatsuya
here What has been his activity been lately?
SERIOUS GUY: Eh? Tatsuya?...What did he do this time?
KATSUYA: "This time"!? Uh well...He hasn't done anything, but...I see...
BIKE RACKS
ULALA: Hmmm...You can bike here, huh?
ULALA: Seems like nobody is here. Let's try somewhere else.
COURTYARD
(Maya and Ulala witness the principal yelling at Anna Yoshizaka.)
PRINCIPAL HARDING: Anna Yoshizaka! What's with that attitude!?
*PRINCIPAL HARDING*
The new principal from St. Hermelin High. There, he was hated & known as
"Hardy". Here, he is also hated.
PRINCIPAL HARDING: It's because of you the police are here! We know you
did it! You wanted revenge for being hit, huh!?
ANNA: I didn't do anything...!
*ANNA YOSHIZAKA*
Student of 3-B. She doesn't look it now, but before the accident, she
was a star track athlete.
NORIKO: How cruel...My big sis is not a murderer!!!
*NORIKO KATAYAMA*
She looks up to Anna & is also a track & field athlete.
PRINCIPAL HARDING: How do we know that? I let you slip because you were
an all-star, but you're useless if you can't run!!! I'm waiting for you
to quit school. You can quit along with your friend Suou!
(Principal Harding walks away and Maya and Ulala go to where Anna and
Norkio are standing.)
ULALA: Hey, you! Aren't you gonna say anything!?
ANNA: Who...are you...?
(Maya explains)
ANNA: From a magazine...? I see...You guys probaly think I killed
him...Write whatever you want...
(Anna starts to walk, but she stops.)
ANNA: I'm...gonna kill him...
(Anna walks away.)
ULALA: That was just too cruel. I'm gonna find that old man and
complain, Ma-ya!
(Talk to people.)
ULALA: I bet he's hiding in the principal's office. I hate those kind of
people the most! I'm gonna complain.
NORIKO: That's so cruel...All he did was have his dreams of success come
true, and what's with this...My big sister's just unlucky in her time of
Joka.
*THE STAUTE PRAISING THE ALMIGHTY HARDING*
(Look at me! Follow me! Don't rely on me! A contradictory statement is
written. It's annoying just to look at.)
MAYA OKAMURA: This rock look suspicious, huh? But nothing comes up if
you search it.
*MAYA OKAMURA*
World history teacher of class 2-C who also has the first name, "Maya".
I sense that I've met her somewhere..?
MAYA OKAMURA: Um...Have we met somewhere?...It's just that I felt we
have.
*NARURATO STONE*
(A rock duck up during construction. It's made of thermanite, but it
gives off a magnetic energy. Legend has it evil demons known as
"Narurato Hotefu" were sealed in this stone by "Hiremon Shounin".)
PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE
(Maya is knocking on the door, and when she comes in, she finds
Principal Harding dead on the floor.)
MAYA: .........!!
(Ulala comes in and when she sees Harding's dead body, she kneels on the
floor.)
ULALA: W...what's with...this...? What the...hell!?
(Katsuya enters)
KATSUYA: Excuse me sir, I'd like to ask you...
KATSUYA: Th, this is...!?
KATSUYA: The note he's holding...That pattern of killing...It's him!!!
KATSUYA: Are you the first one on-scene? Did you see anyone suspicious!?
Anything suspicious when you got here? When did you get here?
ULALA: I...I don't know!!! Stop asking me things all at once!!!
(Anna comes in.)
ULALA: Y...You're...You don't think...!
ANNA: I, It's not me...I didn't do anything...!!!
(Anna walks out.)
KATSUYA: You! Wait!!!
(Katsuya and Maya chase after Anna.)
ULALA: H, Hey...Ma-ya!? Why are you leaving me--!!
HALLWAY
(As the party goes ahead a demon appears to block them.)
ULALA: Wha...What's that...? Wha...What the hell's goin' on!?
SOMEONE'S VOICE: Can't you tell? It's a demon, a demon.
(Everyone senses a presence and man wearing a paper bag over his head
walks up to them from behind carrying a sword.)
KATSUYA: A, demon...? Who the hell are you!? And, what's this feeling...
BAG MAN: You got the letter, right? It's me...Joker.
*JOKER*
The rumored "mystery man" who kills by request when someone calls
themself on their cellular phone.
MAYA: .........!!
JOKER: I took a request. So I'm here to kill you. That's what the rumors
say.
ULALA: Wha...!?
JOKER: Maya Amano...I know you so ve---ry well...What you even did on
the "Other Side".
(Another demon appears by the Joker's side.)
JOKER: Try and call your precious "Persona"! If ya don't, these guys'll
eat ya!
(Joker throws out 2 guns on the floor.)
JOKER: Use these guns. You CAN use one, can't you? BANG-BANG! With both
hands.
KATSUYA: Criminal suspect #501! You're under arrest for illegal firearm
possession and threatening a peace officer!!!
(You'll hear the characters speak)
JOKER: "Persona, Persona!!" Call out your Persona!!
KATSUYA: What is...this feeling!?
(Katsuya's Persona is awakened)
HELIOS: I am Helios..Bearing the ancient sun, I am the one who violates
the night, I shall become your loyal chariot!!
(Helios casts an Agi Spell, on the demon, but no effect, the demon than
attacks Ulala)
ULALA: Kya-----! I can't take it anymore!!
(Ulala's Persona is awakened)
CALLISTO: I am Callisto..The one known as the beautiful of the
nymphs...One who is weary of romance, I will show you true love.
(Callisto uses a Magma Spell on the demon, but still no effect, Maya
then falls to the ground)
MAYA: .........!?
(Maya's Persona is awakened)
MAIA: I am thou...Thou art I..I cometh from the sea of thy heart...I am
the brilliant mother, Maia...
(Maia uses an Hama Spell and instanly kills the demon)
JOKER: Hyaha...! That's it, keep it up!!! But I'm not gonna kill you
now...I'll have the demons kill you slowly. Remember! You can't run from
fate!
(Joker casts a Megido Spell on Maya and co. and they pass out. Then an
FMV plays of Maya having visions of many things like Seven Sisters HS,
Tatsuya, a model airplane, Sumaru City floating, etc. and then ends up
in Philemon's Lair)
PHILEMON'S LAIR
ULALA: So we're dead...? What the hell was my life all about...?
(A golden butterfly appears in the center, then turns into a fading
image of a man.)
SOMEONE'S VOICE: That is not rue..I..invited...you...
PHILEMON: My name is Philemon...I....exist between consciousness and
death...The one...who has granted you...the Personas.
*PHILEMON*
Ruler over the ego, revealer of truth, and creator of all unconscious
actions. It seems he has weakened for some reason.
KATSUYA: #501 said the same thing...I ask this as I am in a dream, "What
is a "Persona"?
PHILEMON: Your powers...are hidden deep within your heart...Like a god
or devil, it is "another self"...Like a god...filled with love...Like a
demon...merciless...Humans go through life with many faces...Your current
appearance is just another face. ...And so is your Persona...one of
many...
KATSUYA: Another you, with physical forms...? What is your purpose in
giving us these?
ULALA: Th, They've actually formed a conversation...
PHILEMON: I...have something,,,to ask of...you...I...underestimated...the...Their...string of misfortune was
too deep. They...made...tears of blood..."This Side"...Only you...can save...
KATSUYA: What's wrong? I can't understand you.
(Philemon briefly shows himself and then turns back in his golden
butterfly form.)
PHILEMON: Warning...rumors will become reality......light...within
hearts...of people...
BACK IN THE HALLWAY
KATSUYA: Are you...alright...?
ULALA: Well, it seems we're all "alive"...
(Katsuya makes a phone call.)
KATSUYA: It's Suou. Get me Captain Shimazu...# 501 was at Seven
Sisters, the suspect has killed the principal and is at large.
ULALA: Uh...Ma-ya...you okay...?
*MAYA: YOU okay, Ulala...?*
ULALA: Y, Yeah...I'm fine...
KATSUYA: Backup is on its way. I'll go after that girl, you two
stay......with me...You're also in danger.
ULALA: Why her? The suspect is that "bag head"?
KATSUYA: If it's just like he said, it's a contract killing. I can't
exclude her possible involvement.
ULALA: Well, she did say that she would kill him...Is this related to
the dream? "Rumors become reality" is what he said...The Joker rumor is
true, then...?
KATSUYA: "It can't be" is what I'd like to say, but I can't...Not after
seeing all this. I accept the fact he borrowed our consciousness to give
us clues. We have to pursue whatever he giives us.
ULALA: So that's why you were so calm...
KATSUYA: Come with me. I can't leave you alone.
ULALA: I, I'm going too...I'm her friend...I couldn't stand it if you
left me here.
KATSUYA: Fine...this is an extreme circumstance. I'll let you have the
guns he left behind. Use it only to protect yourself.
ULALA: I, I don't need...this. I DO know how to box, you know.
(Maya takes the guns and Ms. Smith arrives.)
MS. SMITH: What's wrong!? I heard a loud commotion...
KATSUYA: The principal has been murdered. Backup will be here soon, so
don't worry. Tell the students to stay in their classrooms.
(Ms. Smith nods.)
JANITOR'S ROOM
(Talk to people)
ULALA: Hmm? The mouth on this poster is wet... ...Oh, well.
KATSUYA: The key to the clock tower is missing from here. It could be a
thief...In any case, I should contact lost and found...
JANITOR: I can't find the key to the clock tower. Where did I put it...?
SCHOOL NURSE: You always leave it on top of the desk.
JANITOR: It's not there...Did someone take it?
FACULTY ROOM
(Talk to people)
ULALA: I though that the Joker was just a rumor...That's...why...I...I
never thought a rumor would become real.
MS. SMITH: Anyway, I told them to stay in their classrooms. I hope some
backup arrives soon...
KATSUYA: Helios...So that's another "me", they say...Another me,
oblivious to myself...How Ironic that it has to be a cat.
MR. KASHIHARA: I can't believe the principal was killed. Co, Could it
be the Last Battalion...? N, No, that can't be...
MR. SOUKA: I got it! A murder in the principal's office! I got it! This
is serious! So what's wrong? Huh---? The clock tower key is missing from
the faculty room? Mu---!? I wonder who took it out? Here's a spare
key! Please use it---!!
MR. SOUKA: The suspect could still be around-!! That's scary-! Are the
students safe-!?
MR. ASOU: I see. The Principal killed? ...I see. ...So the suspect might
still be in the school? I see.
7 SISTERS HS 3F
KATSUYA: Again, this feeling...The Personas are calling each other...?
This must be #501!
CLOCK TOWER
(The party looks around.)
ULALA: Ah, there, over there!
(Anna and Joker are up on the ledge.)
JOKER: Lady, you are my partner. I'm here for you.
ANNA: I don't even know you...I never did the Joker curse...
JOKER: No need to worry. You'll understand me and the "Other Side". If
you do, you'll realize that "This Side" is the evil side. I won't hurt
you, let's go.
(enter battle)
KATSUYA: #501, get away from that girl!
JOKER: Don't get in my way!! You can just play with them!!
(Joker summons 3 demons to deal with Maya. and co.)
(after battle)
(Anna is lying unconscious on the floor.)
JOKER: Not bad...Oh, Fine, just sleep for a bit.
(Joker uses his Persona and casts a sleeping spell on Maya and co.)
KATSUYA: Ugh...!? Shi...
(The party falls a sleep and the screen goes black.)
JOKER: Y, You're...!?
(Sword sounds can be heard. Only Maya wakes up and Tatsuya has just
brought Anna down.)
DEJA VU BOY: He got away...
*DEJA VU BOY*
A young man acting older. He ran into me. For some strange reason, I
feel I know him for long ago...
(Tatsuya tosses the school emblem to Maya.)
DEJA VU BOY: Go to a detective's office called "Kuzunoha". It's an
Aoba...Spread a rumor that you'll be safe with that emblem, even from
"him"...
DEJA VU BOY: And lastly, do not involve yourself in this.
Forget...everything...
(Tatsuya leaves.)
HALLWAY TO PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE
(The police has arrived and sealed off Harding's office.)
DETECTIVE TANI: The student profiles aren't reliable. So, it looks like
another guy has drawn the Old Maid card?
CAPTAIN SHIMAZU: Those two are the first on-scene? Where's the student
witness?
*CAPTAIN SHIMAZU*
He is in charge of the bizarre serial murder case division. An elite
crime investigate administrator.
KATSUYA: I sent her to the police hospital. The "Old Maid" is after the
witness. Put some guards on her.
CAPTAIN SHIMAZU: So I heard you came in contact with #501...report it.
(Katsuya does so.)
DETECTIVE TANI: Suou...You rest. You've been working too hard since the
"Old Maid" appeared. Take your dad to a vacation spot once in a while.
KATSUYA: Mr. Tani...!!
CAPTAIN SHIMAZU: Officer Suou, as of today, you are off the team. I
heard that you were a superior detective. But, it's a shame.
(As Katsuya walks.)
CAPTAIN SHIMAZU: "Like father, like son"...Huh...
(Katsuya walks to where Maya and Ulala are standing.)
ULALA: That's why I tried to stop you...So, what are you gonna do?
You're not really going on vacation, are you?
KATSUYA: Don't be absurd...The only officer to see him was me. I WILL
be the one to arrest him.
ULALA: Well then...How about spreading that "anti-Joker" rumor the Deja
Vu Boy was talking about?
KATSUYA: That's absurd...It's not logical. There are times when rumors
do come true, but that's only...
ULALA: Would you stop calling me "absurd"? Can everything that happened
up to now be explained!? You rock-heard with sideburns!
KATSUYA: Sideburns...Fine...Whatever. There's the matter of the boy who
saved us. Let's hear what that detective has to say.
(Talk to people)
ULALA: (sigh) We can't go o the party after all. Well, it can't be
helped...
KATSUYA: That "Old Maid" is not normal, but I'm stuck on what he was
saying...About the "Other Side", and "This Side"...
NORIKO: The principal died...? But, I know that my big sis didn't ask
the Joker to...I just know it...
MS.SMITH: I was just looking for Katayama...Why do the schools I'm at
always have these kinds of incidents...?
GATTEN SUSHI
RUMORMONGER CHUNKY: Well, I'm a really good salesman, but I've become "freindly"
with rumors. Now they call me a "Rumormonger".
*KENTA YOKOUCHI*
A graduate of St. Hermelin...A successful salesman who knows a lot about rumors. His Persona
seems to have helped his career.
RUMORMONGER CHUNKY: Rumors can come in handy for sales. So, if you heara good rumor,
cometell me. I'll tell you one of mine in return.
KANKICHI: I moved here just recently, but I used to have this shop in Hirasaka. Why'd I move
you ask? It's the fortune telling! I was told that I'll do dod business if I opened my shop here! I
had to move here!
KUZUNOHA
TAMMY: Welcome! We take cases of all kinds, from secret love affairs to
ghosts!
*TAMMY*
While going to college, she works as a Devil Summoner.
KATSUYA: Well, no. I want to ask something...
(A moment later.)
CHIEF TODOROKI: I've never taken a request to spread rumors, but someone
did come in to ask if the Joker rumor was spread.
*CHIEF TODOROKI*
He used to be a flunky, but he all of a sudden got smart. Now, he works
as a Devil Summoner.
KATSUYA: What kind of person was he?
(Tammy explains.)
ULALA: That's the "Deja Vu Boy". Ma-ya says so, too.
CHIEF TODOROKI: Tell me a little more. I don't know what you're talking
about.
(Ulala explains)
CHIEF TODOROKI: I see...very interesting. The bizarre serial murders,
the rumors of the Joker, the sighting of demons...It all makes sense if
the rumors are true. I'll accept the request to spread that anti-Joker
rumor. It's a good chance to see if a rumor can become reality.
ULALA: You seemed to have accepted that quickly. You're not gonna report
it to the hospital?
CHIEF TODOROKI: The world is filled with mystery. We can't be held down
by "common sense". Well then...A real man goes by his own rules. First,
ask me to spread the rumor.
(Talk to people.)
ULALA: Ask him Ma-ya. You got nothing to lose.
KATSUYA: Telling us to spread rumors means the boy must believe it
too...Who is he...?
TAMMY: Don't ask me for a job, ask the chief.
CHIEF TODOROKI: Everything has to be settled. That will never change.
Remember the procedure.
(After spreading the rumor.)
CHIEF TODOROKI: Anything else?
CHIEF TODOROKI: The request is now approved. Check the results yourself.
If you have any other rumors to spread, get information from the
rumormongers. They're everywhere.
TAMMY: That "Deja Vu Boy" seems to be looking for the source of the
rumors...I know of a good underground page.
(The party stands by the computer)
TAMMY: "Baofu", who's a friend of the chief, has a web page with all the
rumors in this city. He's in a chat room right now.
BAOFU: Rabbit, you saw the Joker...? They say no one escapes once he's
after you. How'd you survive?
BAOFU: -So you're saying I wouldn't believe it? ...Oh, well...I'll know
when I see you. We'll meet at 2X Slash in Aoba, Rabbit. Tell the worker
my handle, and do what they tell you...
KATSUYA: Sounds suspicious...Should we go?
2X SLASH
UNMOTIVATED WAITER: Welcome. Rabbit, yes, I've heard. Use that red
machine over there.
(Maya and co. are at the red computer.)
BAOFU: Rabbit, I see how you survived. I didn't imagine 3 Persona users.
ULALA: Wai...How'd you know that!?
(Everyone senses a resonance.)
KATSUYA: This is...a Persona!?
(Baofu is shown and he gets off the seat.)
BAOFU: You people have just became Persona users...You don't know how to
use your "Chi". It's obvious...
*BAOFU*
He is a Tap Buster, and has a webpage that collects all the city's
rumors. He says he's from Taiwan.
BAOFU: Follow me...
PARABELLUM
(The party sits at a table together.)
BAOFU: ...I see. Interesting...
KATSUYA: We said about all we know. Now it's your turn.
BAOFU: From what I've researched, the Joker rumors are taken from some
TV show, which then start to spread like wildfire. But before that, not
even the "J" in Joker was known to the public. There's just one
exception...Where do you think it is...? The phone of Tatsuzou Sudou?
ULALA: Who is Tatsuzou Sudou?
KATSUYA: The current foreign minister...How would you know you?...A wire
tap...? That's illegal.
BAOFU: Don't be so stiff...It's been going around that he's been doing
some pretty dirty stuff underground. That 10-year unsolved serial arson-
murder case...It's an infamous rumor between police and investigators
that it was his son.
KATSUYA: Is that..true!?
BAOFU: What...you don't know? Well, either way, about this incident, you
don't think it was a coincidence, do you?
ULALA: Then the foreign minister Tatsuzou Sudou has something to do with
the Joker case!?
BAOFU: "We" are going to find out about that now. Take me with you. I
know where Sudou's son lives. You guys get clues on the Joker. As long
as I'm by the next target, I will get closer to the truth?...Not a bad
deal.
KATSUYA: What do you plan to do with the truth? Your objective is
blackmail, huh?
BAOFU: Hehe...My intentions are honorable, I can assure you I can't let
evil prevail...
KATSUYA: ...What should we do? (to Maya) You're being targeted, you
decide.
BAOFU: You understand what I'm talking about. Well then, let me test
something first...
(Baofu makes phone call.)
BAOFU: Yeah, Todoroki? I'm in Parabellum right now. Spread a rumor that
they're selling weapons here.
ULALA: Hey...What are you trying to do?
BAOFU: I don't believe that rumors come true...So I'm testing it out.
(A moment later.)
(The barkeeper appears with a box of weapons.)
BAOFU: I'm surprised...Hell, it actually worked...
BARKEEP: We have other weapons lined up. Please feel free to ask for
anything.
(Barkeeper leaves.)
ULALA: T-Then, does that mean the rumor about the emblem is now true!?
Then you're alright, Ma-ya!!
BAOFU: So whatcha gonna do with the emblem? If you keep it, the Joker
will just stay away. You don't think you'll run into the Deja Vu Brat
anymore?...Think of why he gave you that...
(An FMV plays of the party at the table. Maya takes the emblem and burns
it with a lighter.)
CITY MAP: AOBA
BAOFU: Sudou's son should be at the sanitarium at Mt. Mifune.
KATSUYA: I see...Ms. Amano, let's check it out.
BAOFU: Hold on! There's a place called the Velvet Room around here. It
has something to do with demons...Considering the situation you're in
right now, you'll need all the help you can get. Let's go in and
have a look...
KATSUYA: What's that? What does that have to do with anything?
BAOFU: I don't even feel like explaining...Just follow me...
VELVET ROOM
IGOR: Welcome to the Velvet Room. This is where the different forms of
people's hearts are called to awaken...By order of our Master Philemon,
we have been awaiting you. My name is Igor.
BELLADONNA: I am Belladonna (music note) I sing for those who challenge
(music note) The monster known as oneself (music note)
NAMELESS: I am Nameless...The piano player who opens the closed doors of
the heart...
DEMON ARTIST: I am the Demon Artist. I am the artist who draws the gods
and demons that dwell within people.
IGOR: We are told to assist the awakening of your new Personas. I am
very glad to make your acquaintance...
(Talk to the party members)
ULALA: So in other words...you can have all sorts of Personas summoned
here? That's pretty convenient...Come to think of it, back in high
school. I learned Persona from you and played it....I wonder
if it has anything to do with this?
KATSUYA: Followers of Philemon...? Then that was not a dream at all...
...I dreamt this as a kid....A golden butterfly...masked man...blue
room...The night I played Persona with Tatsuya...
BAOFU: So what do you think? Useful, huh? Listen, Personas are just
tools...Use them according to the situation. Don't ever think that's
you...I'd never admit that's me...You can only count on yourself in the
end...
BAOFU: Huh? Do I hate Personas...? Yeah, I hate them...You can't use
them when you need 'em most...Don't ever rely on them too much.
BAOFU: Huh? Why am I able to use Personas...? That's what I'd like to
know...though I might've played that game when I was a kid...
AREA: MT. MIFUNE - HIGHWAY
SHADY SECURITY GUARD: There was an accident up ahead. There's nothing
to see here. Move along!
KATSUYA: Accident? Have you contacted the police?
SHADY SECURITY GUARD: Not yet, it just happened. Now move along!
KATSUYA: ...There's nothing we can do do...I understand, thank you.
(As you walk away.)
KATSUYA: What do you think?
BAOFU: This is suspicious. There's another road down at the bottom of
the hill. It's longer, but it leads to the back.
KATSUYA: Alright, let's take that.
SANITARIUM: REAR ENTRANCE
(Two dead Mafia men are lying dead and the walls and glass are damaged.)
ULALA: Aaaahhhhh! A, another dead person!!
BAOFU: Don't make such a loud fuss...
KATSUIYA: They're not ordinary, they are all armed. Kuroboshi...Fired
off all rounds...Cuts, stab wounds, bruises, internal injuries...They
tried, but got killed by demons. Guess that about sums it up. They're
not Japanese.
BAOFU: It's the Tien Tao Lien...The Tiawanese Mafia. I recognize one of
the faces...
KATSUYA: Your buddies...?
BAOFU: Say that again, I'll put a hole in your face.
*MAYA: S, Stop it Baofu...*
BAOFU: Ch...These guys are dogs of Tatsuzou. He's been on good terms
with them for 5 years when he
was the Minister of Justice.
KATSUYA: ...Wait a second. Why would Tatsuzou and the Mafia attack the
very sanitarium his own son was in?
BAOFU: How the hell should I know? We came to find that out.
(Talk to party members)
ULALA: I've been so shaken up these days...Why do I have to put up with
this? Why does a rumor come true...
KATSUYA: Demons, murderers, and now the Mafia...Is this still Japan
here? I can't understand it all...
CORPSE OF TAIWANESE MAFIA: (Such a brutal way to die...)
BAOFU: With this, I don't know what's coming up...You ready?...This is
our last chance to turn back.
TRISH'S FOUNTAIN
(Talk to party members)
ULALA: Wow<3...Look Ma-ya, a fairy!!! I've never seen one before!!
Should I take a picture?
KATSUYA:W...What is this room? It feels the same as Philemon's
dimension...Is this another world, too...?
BAOFU: I don't know much about this room. That flying bug is the owner,
right? Why don't you ask her?
TRISH: This world give and take...Oh...You're new here, right? I'm
Trish. I protect this place of recovery. I heal your wounded bodies.
*TRISH*
A stingy fairy who is obsessed with money. She's been banned from the
Fairy world and can't return until she does good, but ...
TRISH: Not for free, of course. This world is give and take! You can
recover from anything depending on your wallet!
ULALA: Wa...She's charging us? She has a cute face, but what a money-
grubbing fairy!
SANITARIUM 2F: ROOM 206
(Talk to party members)
BAOFU: It seems that Tatsuzou is making enormous contributions to this
sanitarium. He probably buried them under the mask of charity, but she
spilled her guts quickly. Well, it can't be helped in this situation.
ULALA: This nurse and said she saw a mysterious armed group take on some
demons! Could it be those dead Mafia guys back there?...
KATSUYA: That nurse seems to be very confused, but considering this
horrible condition. Everything must be true.
HIDING NURSE: Y...You're a...hu...man...right? P-P-P...Please save me!!
Demons...Demons have appeared!!...He did it...He called the demons...The
patient in Room 303...Tatsuya Sudou summoned the demons! The demons
attacked my patients and my co-workers...It's no lie!...You saw them
too, right!? All those corpses!
SANITARIUM 3F
KATSUYA: Wait, Miss Amano. "Tatsuya Sudou"...This must be Sudou's room.
Let's investigate it.
ROOM 303
(The party enters the room. It has words and stuff written everywhere on
the walls.)
KATSUYA: What...is this...?
KATSUYA: These pictures on the wall...They're all victims of the serial
murders...It seems that Sudou's son is the "Old Maid"...
BAOFU: What's wrong...Amano? You look pale...Something wrong with that
peom thing...?
MAYA: .........
KATSUYA: "Oracle of Maia"...?
BAOFU: The twinkling star of Pleiades sets time in motion. Dance of
pleasure, Feast of shadow, Tongue of stranger, Atonement lights above.
The lion's roar echoes throughout...The 5 skulls shine in Hades...The
holy cross shines in the Heavens...The moment the starts stop
rising...The beat of the virgin Maia also ceases...Paradise remains on
earth...What does all that crap mean...?
KATSUYA: Heaven's cross...Is it the "Grand Cross" that occurred this
summer? Is...this...some sort of prophecy?
ULALA: You mean where all the planets in the solar system align in a
cross formation...? But nothing happened...?
(Maya falls down.)
KATSUYA: What's wrong Miss Amano?
ULALA: Does your chest hurt again, Ma-ya?
KATSUYA: Again...?
ULALA: After running into Deja Vu Boy, she got this mysterious bruise
that nags her...She doesn't know how she got it...
(Maya gets up and starts talking.)
ULALA: Fine...? You sure about that?
BAOFU: This place ain't normal...This room's vibes can't be trusted.
Let's move on.
(Talk to party members.)
ULALA: W, What's with this big eye...Gross! Nyar...Whatever is written
on it...I can't read it...
KATSUYA: He seemed to know you...But what about you does he know...
BAOFU: I see why Sudou was hiding him...I guess you can't blame him with
such a crazy son. Like father, like son...
ROUGH DRAFT OF POEM: (The same contents as the finished one. I don't
like the feeling of it...)
PICTURES ON THE WALL: (The pictures of the murder victims...)
ORACLE OF MAIA: (The twinkling star of Pleiades sets time in motion.
Dance of pleasure, Feast of shadow, Tongue of stranger, Atonement lights
above. The lion's roar echoes throughout...The 5 skulls shine in
Hades...The holy cross shines in the Heavens...The moment the starts
stop rising...The beat of the virgin Maia also ceases...Paradise remains
on earth...I've heard this before...My, my bruise is hurting again...)
SANITARIUM 3F
KATSUYA: I know you're here, #501...Sudou! Everyone, be careful....
SANITARIUM 4F: DIRECTOR'S OFFICE
(There are more dead bodies inside and a demon. Tatsuya Sudou is looking
in the mirror and Maya and co. come in.)
TATSUYA SUDOU: You recall the "Other Side" yet?
(Maya shakes her head no.)
TATSUYA SUDOU: I see...I feel sorry for that brat.
KATSUYA: You're...Tatsuya Sudou, aren't you? This serial killing...the
killings 10 years ago...You did these, didn't you...?
TATSUYA SUDOU: You mean back then? Ah...How nostalgic. The voices won't
let me off with just arson. They said they needed a sacrifice. With the
chest all carved out alive...with the tendons cut so they can't escape.
BAOFU: You piece of garbage...How the hell did you get that kind of
power being locked up for 10 years?
TATSUYA SUDOU: "Kotodama", y'know, Kotodama. Y'know? You say something,
and it'll happen? The voices tell me anything...That poor excuse for a
dad did this to me.
KATSUYA: Kotodama...? The rumors...? You said that your father did this
to you. Then, why is he after your life?
(A phone is ringing.)
TATSUYA SUDOU: Shhhhhh...It's from the guys outside.
(Baofu takes a look out the window.)
OUTSIDE
(There is a black car parked in the lot. Two mafia guys and a man in a
white unifrom are standing by it.)
MAN WITH SCAR: ...? He is...
DIRECTOR'S OFFICE
BAOFU: .........!!
(Baofu walks out.)
ULALA: Wai...Where are you going!?
(Tatsuya Sudou picks up the phone.)
TATSUYA SUDOU: If you're wondering about your men, I already ripped open
their guts. I'm free, you got that? "I'm coming for you soon!"...Give
that message to my f##kin' dad!
(Tatsuya Sudou hangs up the phone.)
KATSUYA: What do you hope to accomplish!? To keep on killing!? To get
revenge on your father!?
TATSUYA SUDOU: Hyahaha! I used to kill for pleasure, but now I only kill
because people give me a call...(to Ulala) Right?
ULALA: .........
TATSUYA SUDOU: My real purpose is...to right the wrong. "This Side" is
wrong, and the "Other Side" is right. My f##kin' dad doesn't understand
that...You understand, don't you?
(Maya shakes her head no.)
MAYA:.........
(enter battle)
TATSUYA SUDOU: Ch...How long are you gonna keep up this act!? I'll make
you remember...If this guy doesn't eat you, come to the Sky Museum!!
(laughs)
(Tatsuya Sudou disappears, leaving the party to deal with the demon.
Katsuya fires a shot after Sudou.)
KATSUYA: Wait, Sudou!!
(after battle)
OUTSIDE
(The parking lot is now empty and Baofu is standing there alone. Maya
and co. come outside.)
ULALA: There he is!
ULALA: Hey, you! Why'd you disappear when we needed you!? Because of
you...
(Baofu smokes a cigarette.)
KATSUYA: You seem to have a reason...Did you know him?
BAOFU: .........
(Katsuya makes a phone call.)
BAOFU: Knock it off...They'll find out without a report from us.
Besides, how are you gonna explain this?
KATSUYA: I am an officer of the law. I can't just let it go...
BAOFU: Heh...You can't look the other way, huh...? You're too soft...
KATSUYA: Let the firemen and police handle this, and let's head to the
Sky Museum. We can't let Sudou stay on the loose...
CITY MAP: KONAN
(As you approach Lunar Palace, Maya and Ulala's apartment.)
ULALA: Ma-ya, you forgot something at home? Hold up, I'll get the door.
LUNAR PALACE
(Talk to party members.)
KATSUYA: T...This is...the work of a burglar!? Is anything missing? You
should check immediately. I'll
begin a search!
BAOFU: Hmmm...That's a nice stereo. It's a decent addition to this room.
ULALA: Oh yeah, I didn't tell you, but recently I've started to learn
the flamenco dance. Wanna see it later?
I'm really good <3...
ULALA: Come to think of it, how many years has it been since we began
rooming together? Really, what a rough life...

JUN: Forgive me for asking such a question, but, have we met somewhere
before?
*MAYA: In front of the station?*
JUN: Eh...? At...That time!
JUN: You bumped into a tall guy from Seven Sisters High School, right? I
knew I saw you somewhere...So that's where...
JUN: Then, did you give me this letter...? Someone gave me a letter
asking me to come here to meet a "freind"...I don't know who it can
be...
ULALA: Hey, that stuff doesn't matter now, hurry up and bail! (to Maya)
What are YOU doing even listening to him? You're so vulnerable to
younger men! We don't know where the Voice Man is...
(The place is suddenly goes ablaze and Tatsuya Sudou's voice comes over
on the intercom.)
TATSUYA SUDOU'S VOICE: Hya----hahaha! I set some bombs to start a fire.
First ones go off in the stairwell, others floors are timed to follow.

ya don't take the kids up here, they become barbecued!!!
