Be comfortable with who you are, and don't feel lesser than anyone else with an SO in their life. That emptiness you feel inside isn't suddenly going to go away just because you have a girlfriend. Don't base your self-worth on whether you have someone or not.

TheSeth2003 I think it’s irony that even I, a straight male want to date the Boys in persona just because they are always my favoured characters. But because I can’t date Yusuke I default to Hifumi because she’s best girl

I actually think the platonic Valentines day is the best version. Going to a restaurant with your mates beats going on a date.

[@EpicAsian1328]

I chose Sumire and chose to be loyal to her in my first playthrough. Also to be fair, its not that the player is getting friendzoned, the player friendzoned them since we make the choice to be in a special relationship or not everytime we reach the 9th confidant level for each one of the potential romantic confidants

@@unicorntomboy9736 I respect your opinion, but I'm not the biggest fan of Sumire. It felt a little forced that they tried to push her as the canon romance option, in my opinion

[@unicorntomboy9736]

@@drakeware655 They both suit each other so much, just like Ann suits Ryujji. Atlus themselves ship tease the former all throughout the game (Actually, on the latter, human Morgana should possibly be shipped with Ann as well)

[@drakeware655]

@UnicornGamer97 That's basically because the developers made it that way. I'm willing to believe some of their interactions; meeting each other in school or in the city. But the parts where I thought they pushed their luck were the following; 1) Her Phantom Thief attire. A Phantom Thief's outfit is a representation of their will of rebellion. Yet Sumire's is literally a genderbent version of Joker's. Like, she JUST met him in that outfit, and that's suddenly her idea of rebellion? 2) The Hawaii trip. This is where I feel they pushed their luck with her the most, as it turned out that her overseas Gymnastics training happened to take place in Hawaii, at the exact same time as the class trip. That basically made her seem overrated, in my opinion. But the part that always weirded me out the most was that they're trying to push her as the canon romance option when you were originally given 9 other options to date. Cause to me, it just begs the question, "Then why can we romance the other girls, especially since some, like myself, can overlook her and still romance the ones we consider to be the best girl?"

I've been waiting for this! Thanks for uploading this scene! Gotta say, I'm glad they added these scenes. It makes choosing to be single or loyal to one girl felt more worth it.

[@IceBlueLugia]

Red haired Boi No, he didn’t. Dying your hair a light color is seen as a sign of rebellion in Japan, and it’s also technically banned in school but most schools don’t enforce the rule too strictly, so it’s an easy way to say you’re breaking the rules. Kanji did it for the same reason in P4G.

If you romance 1 girl but friendzone the other your GF in game will be missing from the scene because you spent it with her, or would have a slightly different dialog and item for you.
