Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, one and all!

This is a liveblog detailing a simple self-imposed challenge in Persona 4. Having completed the game on Normal difficulty, I felt the need to tackle Expert!

However, there's always baggage when it comes to challenging oneself on a New Game+, as I am doing, mostly to access the extra bosses on this route. As a result I've opted to make use of a simple solution to this problem:

I will not abuse the Persona Compendium. I may only summon Personas that I have already obtained through Shuffle Time! or Fusion.

I will, admittedly, be taking advantage of my maxed Social Stats (Expression, Understanding, Knowledge, Courage, and Diligence) and a fairly large yen purse from my last playthrough, but I feel that it will not degrade the challenge TOO much.

So without further ado, we shall now dive into one year in the life of Yu Narukami, and the strange journey he will have, finding that an innocent sin could lead to the world's eternal punishment...

This update was adorable. And more max social links get! Whoo-hoo!

Also, you got the Guardian. A feat I have never accomplished. Well done.

Can't wait for more!

The Guardian is just ridiculous. Seriously, it was my biggest barrier to getting this thing done. But I'm aiming for a fully completed run, so!

Anything in particular stand out? I'd like to know what I'm doing right!

Nice update. One thing, though: You said when Yu unlocked the max Tower Arcana that Shu was the Devil Arcana. You might want to fix that.

Otherwise, I like it, and I'm looking forward to the Culture Festival. Question is, will this Yu just try to stick it out, or will he go all out like his anime counterpart and be all gung-ho with the whole thing?

Alright, that problem's taken care of!

As for the rest... You'll see.
