BACK. And I have something. (I neglected my own blog for months! >.<)

Hiya. It's been a LONG TIME, ne? If you ever forgot, I'm Kairu Kobayashi. Well, it's been some time since we all went back to school, and I've been too busy to take care of other things. My mom told me that blogging isn't really that important, but hey, this is my "leisure time" and I should have time to do this to have a break from studying! Anyways, even though there's school, I had at least 30 minutes a day to play Persona 3 Portable (P3P). That's right. And compared to the PS2 (or PS3), I can use it anywhere I am, even in the comfort room (lawl).

I think, even if you haven't played this yet, you have little ideas about it. Persona 3 is an RPG, and if you will play the Female Point-of-view (only in P3P), it can also be an otome game/visual novel. Introduction first.

WARNING: NOT RELATED TO KYUGAKU:)
Persona 3 Portable is a game made by ATLUS, originally Persona 3 (on the PS2) made portable! But there were several additions, and the most significant addition is the Female Point-of-view. P3P is all about a group of teenagers and a kid that fight shadows, called 'SEES'. Shadows are monsters that only appear during the Dark Hour. The Dark Hour is a period between one day and the next. During the Dark Hour, usually everyone would be asleep but this time, it's different. For all "normal people" (without potential), they sleep in coffins, also called transmogrification (you'll encounter this later in the game). Also during the Dark Hour, there is no electricity, and there is no light everywhere--so it's really DARK. Well, these peeps use their power, called a "Persona" that can be awakened using an evoker, a gun that's really not real.

Anyways, I'd like to jump, but please read everything even if you don't know anything about Persona (Shin Megami Tensei)...hahahaha

There's this feature called "Social Link" where in you can make friends and aquaintances--which of course, strengthens your persona(s), depending on the kind of Arcana that the person possesses. Each of the people you can be friends with have their own Arcana. Just like Akihiko-senpai (MY LOVER, srsly) whose Arcana is the Star.

I haven't finished Persona 3 Portable yet, but Akihiko-senpai and Shinjiro-senpai are already my LOVERS (WITH AN -S, lawl!). According to what I have read on several blogs and what I have watched on several YouTube videos, there are three possible 'lover' endings if you have maxed out their Social Link, namely:

  • Akihiko Sanada - Well, this is the HARDEST one, I guess, but everything paid off. All those days you have waited to meet him are nothing if you have reached the end;)) Anyways, he's the sweetest!!! Even though he says that Minako (FeMC) reminds him of his sister, well...IDK!!! He just makes me blush!!! >.<
  • Shinjiro Aragaki - This one is easy to max out, because you won't sacrifice your time for Akihiko-senpai just to meet up with him. He's the bad-boy looking guy with a sweet side. He's kinda unique because even though he is the type of guy you always see in alleys and dark areas, he cooks well and he's also very kind even though he wants to show that he's not. He makes me laugh.
  • Ken Amada - Obviously the youngest, and the CUTEST! Oh well, but it makes everything awkward, like, hey, your lover is a kid. Are you sure about this? He's just in Elementary School and all. But anyways, just like what he said, for all the time you live he's just there beside you. And, he doesn't die before you (because of old age) because he's six years younger, lawl! 
I'd appreciate it if you say what you think of Persona 3 Portable. Yes, it's a lot different than Persona 3. But it's a lot better, thanks to Minako Arisato!!!

**Take note that the Female Main Character has no actual given name since it depends on you what you want to be her name but her US fan name is Minako Arisato, based on the Male Character's name (Minato Arisato) and her JP fan name is Hamuko, based off 'Hamtaro' (which is weird, alright.)

Hope you like my post (for the sake of updating)! JA:)
