I find that about four per palace works well. If you want to open Mementos Chests, you'll probably need a bit more than that, as they're random.

The achievement is only for things you specifically craft on that run.

If everyone were normal, the world would be a dull place. Like reality television.

Sounds good.

Takemi's Confidant can be unlocked once you can start the 1st palace, right? Or is it after you already take a foray inside?

As soon as you're in palace 1, yes.

But she has a social stat requirement very early, so you'll probably spend any spare days building that up instead.

I actually wait on the first two days before going in, because there's the need for lockpicks and a few date-locked events to try (Crosswords at night on day 1 comes to mind).

On Mondays you can get a substantial boost to Charm should you spend time at the bathhouse, and on rainy days Knowledge gets a boost whenever you study anywhere or eat something at the restaurant in Shibuya.

How much do the P4 Glasses accessory increase money gain, because after buying like 3 medicines I'm half broke and now i'm trying to buy equipment and it looks like i'm about to be fully broke.

...Okay. Seems I forgot how unforgiving Hard difficulty can be. Ryuji got critted and died in one hit, and then I got killed with a single Lunge at full health. Jesus.

Character details about the Phantom Thieves in the Art Book

https://dream-needle.tumblr.com/post/167251773542/since-people-were-amused-at-the-ryuji-shaves-his

  • Ryuji shaves his eyebrows
  • Akira’s original transformation into a Phantom Thief was his hair slicking back and his eyes changing color
  • The face on Captain Kidd’s ship is something the creator imagined Ryuji would draw on there
  • Morgana was initially able to transform into anything, not just a car, and his concept art is frankly terrifying
  • Ann is not wearing her Phantom Thief outfit by choice (the suits are created by an outside force an just appear without any input from the wearer)
  • The creator had a hard time with Ann’s pink gloves because they kept looking like rubber dish gloves
  • The keys on Yusuke’s belt are for lockers that hold things dear to him
  • Yusuke’s shirt isn’t part of the uniform and he was originally supposed to be from a high school from a previous game
  • Makoto’s irises are the only ones that touch the lower lashes, a sign of her lack of self confidence
  • Futaba dyed her hair orange out of spontaneity
  • Haru is a ballerina
  • Haru started off with a Noh mask but looked too terrifying

Regular Haru is pretty scary as is!

Interesting. I wonder which high school Yusuke was originally supposed to be from if he was originally going to be from a high school from a previous game.

[up] If it was literally the previous game, then Yusuke would be at Yasogami High School.

I bet it was Gekkoukan. That just seems like it fits him better.

No, Persona takes place in Mikage-cho and Persona 2 in Sumaru City, both of which I'm pretty sure are made up.

Soul Hackers also takes place in a fictional city.

I'll be the one to say it. Ann's Phantom Thief outfit being created against her will actually makes more sense than any in-universe reason for her to be wearing it.

HamburgerTime Since: Apr, 2010

Apparently all of the outfits are selected by some external force. Unsure what exactly that implies.

They're apparently a manifestation of the "true self," so I feel more like they reflect who the Thieves are in their innermost point, even if they themselves aren't aware of it until then.

Yeah the game implies its their subconscious choosing their looks, its their imagination imagining what it would be like to be a Phantom Thief.

I think either Futaba or Makoto has my favorite outfit. Coincidentally or not I can't decide between them for Best Girl either.

Ann's is the one that makes absolute sense since in the game it implies that one of her childhood heroes was Fujiko from Lupin The Third.
