Makoto Yūki, an orphaned teenager relocating to Iwatodai City, assumes leadership of the Specialized Extracurricular Execution Squad (SEES), a group dedicated to vanquishing supernatural Shadows plaguing the Dark Hour. Wielding the rare ability to summon multiple Personas, he commands Orpheus as his primary entity and Oberon in strategic encounters—the latter echoing motifs tied to a cinematic title. Tasked with eliminating twelve Arcana Shadows to halt the Dark Hour, his missions unravel the phenomenon’s origins, entwined with the Kirijo Group’s past and the tragic demise of Yukari Takeba’s father. Initially guarded and emotionally detached, Makoto’s journey navigates profound internal struggles. Upon uncovering the Dark Hour’s truth and the existential void awaiting its resolution, he wavers in pivotal moments, his reluctance during the Hermit Arcana clash fraying SEES’ cohesion and indirectly triggering Shinjiro Aragaki’s Persona失控. Interpersonal tensions surface as he supports Yukari through her father’s dark legacy, only to face her growing jealousy when Aigis—an android singularly devoted to his protection—joins their ranks. Aigis’ unwavering allegiance subtly alters team dynamics, though Makoto’s reactions remain restrained, masking deeper emotional undercurrents. Tragedy further molds his path. Amid Ken Amada’s vengeful pursuit, Makoto intervenes to avert bloodshed, yet Shinjiro’s sacrificial death leaves an indelible mark. Attending the funeral, he confronts mortality’s weight and the burden of leadership. A post-credits cameo by Ryoji Mochizuki foreshadows looming threats beyond the Dark Hour. Guided by cryptic counsel within the Velvet Room—a realm straddling dream and reality—he is urged to cherish fleeting joys while guarding against encroaching peril, mirroring the delicate balance between duty and humanity. His odyssey weaves collective bonds against solitude’s specter, framed by clashes against external foes and the silent tempest of doubt within.
