** I reject that theory because the P3 characters eventually get their resolution without having to fight their shadows.



* Going by the Shadows in Persona 2, Shadow Yu's Persona would be Reverse Izanagi. However, going by Shadow Labrys, it might be something else entirely (Shadow Labrys has a different Persona than Labrys does). So who knows?

* Personas are reflections (which may be twisted) of a person's true self, just because Magatsu Izanagi is Izanagi's EvilTwin, doesn't mean that Yu's twisted self would be Magatsu Izanagi itself; Magatsu Izanagi is Adachi's persona, his true twisted self, if reverts were a possibilty, your logic would also imply that a good natured Adachi would have Izanagi itself as his persona. Conslusion, main personas are exclusive.

* Ok, This is a bit of Fridge Logic, so bare with me as I elaborate. As the Investigation Team grows larger in P4, They gain their persona by acquiring the Facade to face the world. The Seeds in P3 never faced themselves like the Investigation Team. When they receive their "Ultimate" Persona in that game, they finally gained the facade to deal with death. The Ultimate Persona in P4 are just bonuses to hook you into ranking up with the Team faster than other Links (As seen by Chie, Akiko, and Kanji in Persona 4: The Golden having Different Ultimate Persona compared to the original).

** By that logic, does this mean that we get to see a gay, diaper-wearing version of Kanji trying to kick our asses?

[[WMG: [[BlazblueContinuumShift Relius Clover]] will be a guest character.]]
Let's list out several points:
* Relius' Drive attack has him summon the marionette Ignis to attack the opponent. Seeing as how he comes the closest a Blazblue character has to a Persona-like fighter, it would make sense.
* Nobody I've seen so far has a Persona attack similar to Detonator... at least not for the moment.

[[WMG: Those not receiving an alt-color has a chance to be a guest/bonus character]]
In particular, [[VideoGame/{{Persona}} Persona 1 characters]] (Naoya or most probably either Nanjou or Elly since they are playable in Eternal Punishment) or [[{{Persona 2}} Tatsuya and maybe Ginko]]. It's mostly a known cause that 'if you're an alternate color, you're probably not in the game'. Which also makes it more plausible to pick [[GuiltyGear Sol Badguy]] as a guest...

[[WMG: The Ultimate in Mayonaka Arena takes place after the [[spoiler:"Good Ending", not the "True Ending"]]]]
* [[spoiler:The protagonist only gets his ultimate persona during the TrueFinalBoss. This also means that Izanami is still around and still plans to turn everyone into shadows, and everyone is fighting each other due to her machinations by creating the fog of misunderstanding or something.]]
** If I may add? It is notable that [[http://www.siliconera.com/2011/09/07/witness-a-persona-4-brawl-in-the-ultimate-in-mayonaka-arena-screenshots/ these screenshots show a non-beautiful TV World unlike the ending.]]
*** But isn't it confirmed that this is all just a tournament set up by Teddie?

[[WMG: The Ultimate in Mayonaka Arena will have the Protagonist of Persona 3]]
* http://www.siliconera.com/postgallery/?p_gal=155739|6 If you look, there are currently 6 characters revealed. Factoring in Naoto and Teddie, that leaves 2 left. It's been implied that there will be more characters from Persona 3 and the events of Persona 4 (going into more WMG territory) show mankind has the potential to defy fate and their inner selves. That seems to have a lot to do with the [[spoiler: seal on Nyx/Erebus right?]] This also explains why (as mentioned on the main page) Aigis has Pallas Athena and not [[spoiler:Orpheus.]]

[[WMG: Aigis was sent by Kirijou to investigate the TV World.]]
The Kirijou Group only recently managed to discover its existence and wants to know if it poses a threat. In order to make sure Aigis is as prepared as possible in case anything bad were to occur, they outfitted her with some bigger guns. She doesn't have a team anymore after all, so clearly the bigger the better.
* Seeing as how Mitsuru herself has now joined the fray...

[[WMG: The rest of the P3 gang won't show up.]]
It's been two years, so it might be a pain to create new character designs for all of them to accommodate that. Plus ATLUS might want to keep their current status vague and up to our imaginations. Aigis is a robot who doesn't age, so she's exempt.
* Jossed. Akihiko and Mitsuru are confirmed to have spots in the roster, so playability is still open for Yukari, Junpei, Fuuka, Ken, and Koromaru (with Fuuka as a second MC alongside Rise).

[[WMG: The final two playable characters will be [[spoiler: [[BonusBoss Margaret]] and [[MirrorBoss Adachi]]]]]]
In the event that Aigis is the only {{Persona3}} character in this game, these two are the only other people in {{Persona4}} that the player can see summoning a Persona and (unlike Rise) have actual fighting abilities.
* Well, Aegis is not the only [=P3=] character in it anymore, and taking account the game follows the canon of both Persona 3 and 4, [[spoiler:Adachi]] will be kind [[spoiler:of "jailed"]] to be participating on the P-1 Grand Prix; unless the plot delves into more complex events that somehow forces [[spoiler:Adachi out of jail]] to help/fight the heroes, the only chance he has to be in the arena is as a DLC character; normally DLC content can be rendered into the non-canon part of the game.

[[WMG: Tatsuya Suou and Maya Amano will be playable characters.]]
Akin to how Roy was in SuperSmashBros. Melee to promote his game, Tatsuya and Maya will be revealed around the same time Atlus announces a PSP remake of [[{{Persona2}} Innocent Sin]].
* The PSP remake of Innocent Sin was announced (and I think out in Japan) before this was announced. If anything, it'd be Katsuya and Maya, as a cross promotion with a Eternal Punishment PSP remake. (Not to mention, unlike Tatsuya, both of those still can use their Personas without having to twist the plot around)

[[WMG: We will get real alternate costumes instead of just palette swaps]]
* We can dream, can't we?
** It's possible, if only to avoid TheyChangedItNowItSucks complaints about Akihiko & Mitsuru (And any other Persona3 characters who turn up) having new looks.

[[WMG: The whole plot is [[BlazBlue Hazama]]'s doing.]]
He thought it would be fun to pop up in the Persona world and cause chaos for kicks. It sounds like something he'd do, doesn't it?
* For extra fun, his "Persona" is calling Mu-12 from off screen to use Gamma Ray.
* He may be trying to learn the Shadow system in the Persona world, and when he perfected it, he'll get back to the BlazBlue world and spread the Shadows into the BlazBlue cast, creating even bigger mayhem. I mean who wouldn't want to see a Shadow Ragna?
* Long time reader, first time poster. This troper has wondered for a while if there was a connection between Hazama and the Shadow Characters. Both have {{eyes of gold}} and a habit of {{trolling}} their opponents.
* Hazama vs. Adachi. You know you want it.
* Forget Adachi. Hazama teaming up with [[{{Persona 2}} Nyarlathotep]] is where it's at.

[[WMG: Hitoshura will be a bonus boss.]]
Why? [[ThatOneBoss Cause that would]] [[SNKBoss be really mean by]] {{Atlus}}.
* But then imagine playing as him. [[FrickinLaserBeams FREI]][[AwesomeButPractical KU]][[ThatOneAttack GAL]]!

[[WMG: This game will have allusions to Persona 5]]
It's not exactly impossible, events for Persona 5 could certainly be hinted at in the endings for different characters.

[[WMG: Future character WMG]]
* A GuestFighter from {{Blazblue}}
** Considering that the developers are the same, Atlus could at least afford to have a Blazblue fighter included. Besides, the control schemes are roughly the same, aren't they?
* Most (if not all) of the members of [[{{Persona 3}} S.E.E.S]]
** Since we have Aigis, Akihiko and Mitsuru included into the ranks, it would make some sense to have the rest of the team come back. This could also lead to some interesting match-ups between the two generations of Persona users (Minato/Yu, Junpei/Yosuke, Akihiko/Kanji, Aigis/Chie).
*** However, if we are to take the alternate colors, we probably would have to take Minato (alt color for Yuu) and Yukari (alt color for Chie) out.
* Adachi and/or Strega
** Since there aren't all villain characters, it would make sense to put in these guys. Never mind the fact that Adachi repented for his crimes and that the members of Strega died.
*** Strega members looked impossible if we count that Takaya becomes an alt-costume for Akihiko, while Chidori becomes an alt-costume for Yukiko.
* Rise
** Let's be honest: she must have been doing some training or hiding some skills that none of her teammates don't know about.
* Margaret/Elizabeth/Theo
** Because you can't have a fighting game made by two companies who are known for making brutally hard bosses not have one.
* Characters from Persona 5
** If I recall correctly, [[http://ps3.ign.com/articles/119/1191595p1.html Atlus is indeed working on Persona 5.]] Would make sense to make an EarlyBirdCameo right now, won't it?
* [[{{Persona}} Nao]][[FanNickname ya]] and [[{{Persona 2}} Maya]]
** Come on! I wanna see what the former protagonists are doing now after 10 or 20 years. I'd add Tatsuya too but [[VictoryGuidedAmnesia plot prevents that]].
*** Naoya can have a small chance, but Maya is confirmed as a Mitsuru alt-color, so she's probably out of quotation now.
* [[{{Persona 2}} Nyarlathotep]]
** It is stated that AsLongAsThereIsEvil, he'll be back. What good chance aside of now, after years of absence, that he'll be back to wreak chaos again? Could be a good contender for BigBad and FinalBoss.

[[WMG: The final boss will be Aigis]]
They've been setting up this rivalry of sorts between her and Yu, the most likely other candidate is Teddie, who doesn't have any reason to be strong enough to pass off as a final boss, where as Aigis(may) have the Wird Card.
* Whoever the FinalBoss may be, it sure won't a normal version of theirs if it turns out to be one of the playable characters, like Aigis and Teddie, Akysis wouldn't be a regular on the SNKBossSyndrome otherwise.

[[WMG: The tournament is NotJustATournament]]
Obvious but CALLING IT!

[[WMG: Minato Arisato ({{Persona 3}} Protagonist) [[spoiler: will be the final boss]].]]
Would be a nice twist, instead of the expected [[spoiler: Izanami or other god]].

[[WMG: Those not receiving an alt-color has a chance to be a guest/bonus character]]
