Yukari Takeba: Oh yeah, Chihiro and the others are coming over today.
???: Hello.
Hey, weren't you Kirijo-senpai's...
I am her maid. Saikawa Kikuno.
Erm...
Kikuno Saikawa: It's alright, don't be alarmed.
Due to certain circumstances, I found myself free for some days so I came by.
Is that so?
Thanks to Madam Hanae-...
I mean the Young Miss' Mother, I have acquired some good ingredients.
Could I please use your kitchen?
Kitchen? You intend to cook?
I came to express my gratitude today.
Huh?
Thank you very much!
You saved the miss at the risk of your lives.
Actually, could you please give me a hand?
Eh? Me?
I want to tell the miss...
that we made it together.
Let's make haste!
It'll be dinner time soon!
Ahh! Wait!
My friends are coming over today!
That's right. Kirijo senpai lost her Dear Father and went back home.
3 days have passed since.
We felt as if we're being tested by destiny.
I'll probably never forget what I did this time...
till the end of my life.
Tanaka Rie: Drama CD Persona 3.
Megumi Toyoguchi: Full Moon.
Chihiro-chan? And Odagiri-kun.
Hidetoshi Odagiri: I'm sorry in interrupting you.
Chihiro Fushimi: We heard the noise and decided to drop by.
Ahh don't worry about it.
Ah! Actually, I should apologize for leaving you yesterday.
Oh no! It's ok.
I was the one who had to buy those things anyway.
But this is quite impressive! One bullseye after another!
When I told Komouno-sensei about this earlier he was surprised.
He said maybe I should ask what you concentrate on when you practice...
And you'd tell me magic behind it.
It's not like that.
It's like... umm... how do I say it?...
I'm not aiming so that I can hit...
You don't aim?
No, of course I do!
Well... It's just that I point the bow a bit off to the side.
There's a limit to when you aim only with your eyes and body.
What's important is the feeling that follows.
The feeling that follows?
That's right.
Even if I may not quite understand it, my feelings are what's important.
I was able to hear my Father's last words thanks to joining Mitsuru-senpai.
[UNFINISHED]
What he said while thinking of me just before he lost his life.
"Please take care of yourself".
Please take care of yourself.
That's all.
Bye, Yukari.
It's the same... what's more she said "bye".
Does she feel the same way my dad did before he died?
Takeba-kun?
She couldn't be thinking...
No way, that can't be it...
That's right... I must be thinking too much...
Kikuno Saikawa: Good morning.
Ichiro Takadera: It's you.
Did you spend the night by the Young Miss' side?
How loyal.
I can't believe the scope of this plot ranges from the grounds to the main office.
This is all for the sake of protecting Kirijo Group.
Otherwise, I'd never join forces with those grumpy old farts that *** for vested rights.
It matters not if management is separated from the hands of the relatives.
Problem is that if that occurs, the evil deeds Ikutsuki did would come to light.
We must prevent it at any cost.
At any cost?
Therefore, our top priority is to dispose of SEES.
Their very existence is evidence of Ikutsuki's dirty work.
???: It's time.
Good. Let's turn the tables in our favor.
Aigis: Ah! What's this?....
The traffic at the student dorm has suddenly...
This is coming from the security system.
The system is being attacked!
But it's strange...
there's no sign of reboot.
And the regular authentication is almost clear.
Ah! Could it be that the attack is coming from the same Kirijo Terminal?
What is the meaning of this?
Anyhow, I need to warn everyone.
If I send a warning to the console inside my room...
Please someone notice!
Everyone is in school right now.
Since the security system's being targeted...
There's a high possibility they might be in danger.
If I sit still and the system becomes completely erased...
Access will be cut off and I won't be able to warn them.
There's no other choice.
I'm not skilled at this, but I'll intervene and buy some time.
The ones who are home early are Amada-san or...
Junpei-san who has no extracurricular activities.
Please last until then somehow!
Announcement: Paging Doctor Nikaido from the surgical department. Nikaido-sensei!
If you are present please proceed to room number 5.
Chidori: What will you be doing 2 year from now?
Junpei Iori: Two years? Well... I dunno.
I really haven't though about it...
Why do you ask?
I noticed you stopped...
Y'know, hurting yourself.
Oh... I guess...
That's good.
I mean, you have such beautiful hands...
Don't touch me!
Oh, sorry. I didn't mean to..
This is too painful...
It used to be fun when you came to visit...
[UNFINISHED]
But... it's different now.
It hurts inside...
I can't breath...
I... I can't take this anymore!
Wh-Whaddya mean!?
I don't understand!
Did I do something wrong?
Tell me what it is!
Junpei...
Don't come here anymore!
But... Chidori...
Why are you still standing there?
If you refuse to go home...
What the heck is this...
I feel like my strength's been drained.
Doctor: Sorry for taking some time.
I met some difficulties sending away uninvited guests.
Hmm? Hey, don't tell me..!
Take him out!
You used it on him?
Hurry!
Come Junpei-kun, this way.
I think I'm fine now.
I was careless.
I never thought she'd do this on you.
What was that?
Her power.
It's similar to that of your Yamagishi-san...
but it's different.. like the difference between passive and active.
She infuses her power forcibly.
She doesn't only scan you, she can even change you!
Why did Chidori suddenly start to hate me...?
I assume she's frightened.
This is the first time she's afraid someone could die since she's been born.
I'm going home...
To tell you the truth, she told me not to come anymore.
See, as a Doctor...
I know people can frequently meet someone who understands them...
but hardly ever encounter somebody who can break through their walls.
Huh?
You should come again.
Doc...
It's no use.
I'm at my limits.
Wait, if I'm aware of the current situation that means the people inside the lab also are.
Why haven't they acted?
Could it be that the enemies inside Kirijo are also present in the lab?
Maybe it's because Fuuka-san woke me up...
with an irregular method yesterday that's why...
nobody knows I've been awake all this time.
In that case it'd be dangerous to contact the laboratory workers.
But I can't afford to go with my own strength.
My power level will be drained to minimum.
I need to receive input from someone outside.
This is bad...
I can't hold out any longer.
The access to dorm is shutting down.
Everyone...
Ken Amada: I'm home!
Ahh!
I told you not to do that, you'll scratch it!
Aigis isn't here now...
Okay, look, the light's are out, see.
But why?
The warning signal should have gone out.
Who noticed me?
I'll think about that later.
Still, can I go back to everyone?
I don't want to put them in danger again.
No, I can't afford to lose time worrying now.
I have to let them know as soon as possible.
"Please take care of yourself. Bye"...
No way, she'd never think of...
I'm home!
Ahh! Yukari-chan!
Protagonist(Leader): You're finally home!
You're late dammit!
I was too, though.
What happened? Why is everyone here?
Fuuka Yamagishi: Look, Aigis is back!
I apologize for worrying you.
Aigis!
Akihiko Sanada: But we can't celebrate just yet.
She's brought some bad news.
Yukari-san, take this.
An evoker? Why do you give me this all of a sudden?
This dorm is being targeted at the moment.
Huh?
You heard her.
We don't know what exactly, but danger is approaching.
While we were at school, the security system was taken down.
We've got nothing but regular keys to lock up the doors now.
Wait, how'd that happen?
Who would do such a thing?!
There is a high chance our enemy lies within Kirijo.
Kirijo!?
Damn it!
As if the old fart yesterday wasn't enough...
When did the whole group turn its back against us?
They withdrew much too peacefully.
They were plotting something.
I thought they'd exercise force...
but when I reached here they must have noticed we're onto them...
and decided to take no action.
They plan on taking us out bit-by-bit, huh?
How could this happen?
What's going on inside Kirijo?
It has nothing to do with Mitsuru, and yet there's no stopping it.
That *** might be pulling the strings from the inside.
This is bad...
She's in danger after all.
After all?
Hey, wait a second, Yukarichi!
I'm going out!
Where to?!
Don't go off on your own!
I'm borrowing this bicycle.
Yukari-chan!
I can't believe this.
Instead of thinking all day I should have done something.
I'm such an idiot!
What if my ill premonition turns out true?
There's no way I'm gonna lose someone again!
I'm sorry!
I gotta do what I feel inside my heart.
Even if it's the last thing I do!
???: Target 02 is within the station premises.
This is the first time she's exhibited a sign of activity in this time range.
I assume she'll get on the next train bound for Port Island.
???: Hey, she's not on the platform!
Don't tell me she got inside the other train!
Did anybody follow her there?
Negative, I'm sorry.
There's nothing we can do about it.
Examine the vicinity for Persona waveform activity.
The target's Persona has to be there!
Don't let her slip away at any cost!
I somehow managed to get in...
but it sure was a snap decision.
Still, there's no way I'd forget this number.
I'm sure it's close to that place.
Huh, signal's out of range?
How can this be?
Anyway, I gotta call as soon as I arrive at the station.
Senpai...
Lady1: Hey, I just met Isako-sama who I hadn't seen in a long time.
Lady2: How surprising, she's here?
Although her family has close ties with Kirijo...
I heard she married some scientist.
Lady3: She is as beautiful as always.
Her daughter accompanied her...
but you'd never tell she has a daughter unless you know.
Little Mitsuru: Go away!
Little Yukari: Hey, what are you doing?
I was picking a kaki [Japanese fruit] from the tree...
to give to my Mother and Father.
I can't hear you well.
No! Don't come!
There's a snake.
It's coiled up below me.
Oh, it's true.
Aren't you afraid?
I am a bit grossed...
But my dad researches animals so I'm okay!
Should I drive it away?
It's dangerous!
You'll be hurt if it bites you!
Then should I call my dad and the others?
No!
You'll trouble them if you do.
When you rely on somebody, you burden them.
So... I have to cope with it by myself somehow.
But then you wouldn't be able to climb down you know.
You don't have to be stubborn.
But, I don't know what to do.
Hm?
The words won't come out.
Nothing appears in my mind.
What do you say at a time like this?
What should I say?
Well that's simple!
Just say "help me"!
Then I'll save you!
That's impossible!
There's an underground line inside this room?
Mitsuru Kirijo: That's right...
I was sleeping...
Miss.
Who could be calling now?
Umm... I have no idea.
I'm sorry.
Were you here this whole time?
No, not at all.
It's still dark outside.
Hm?
It's 9 in the afternoon?
Don't tell me I've been sleeping all day?
Yes. It is because you were very tired.
I had a dream...
a dream of my past.
Memories sure are something.
I feel like my heart is a little more at ease now.
I see.
Kikuno! What's the schedule for the funeral?
If it's possible, I want to go back to the dorm for a bit.
I cannot allow that!
Why is that?
It's because...
You slept so long since you were excessively tired.
Furthermore, when the funeral starts you'll be even busier than yesterday.
I understand.
In that case, at least I'd like to make a call.
Takeba will scold me again.
This is strange.
She didn't pick up.
More like, I can't get through.
You will be redirected to KJ voice mail services.
Akihiko doesn't answer either.
Aren't they just busy?
This is a direct line.
It should always connect.
Which reminds me, she said a man from the security department paid them a visit yesterday.
I wasn't informed of this at all.
Something might be going on.
Aren't you over-thinking this?
Kikuno, do you remember?
Takadera said there's a risk that illegal deeds would become known to the world.
If that is true, what would be the most deplorable?
If it were me, I'd want to cover Ikutsuki's evil deeds.
And SEES is a big part of that.
Young Miss.
Kikuno, this could be far worse than we could imagine.
I want to know what's going on at the dorm on the double!
Kikuno?
Uh, yes. Pardon me.
I will look into it.
Please do so.
I'm sorry. I was awfully careless.
It's alright. Don't worry about it.
I should have cleaned up right after I gave you the medicine.
I'll bring you some clothes change.
Hey, Kikuno.
Yes?
If something's really going on...
Takadera will be in a pinch if I give you such orders.
He must have taken some measures.
Kikuno...
Is that why I was given a medicine?
Kikuno?
Young Miss, can we go out for a walk?
It's past 9 already.
And it's all dark outside the station.
Actually is this even the right station?
She didn't answer my call a while ago.
I'll be such an idiot if I end up getting lost.
I should be more optimistic.
I can still make it in time.
Alright, I'm doing this!
Yukarichi isn't back yet, huh.
I hope nothing's happened to her.
There's no other choice.
Yamagishi, time to use your Persona.
If the enemy has the ability to take control of my Persona,
it'll result in an attack toward us-
I know that.
But we can't wait until somebody dies.
Affirmative.
Well? Can you sense Takeba?
No, she's not nearby.
Huh?! What is this?!
What's wrong?
There are men who appear to have surrounded the dorm.
Furthermore, they're armed!
What the?!
This concludes it.
It's a definite use of force.
But how can they even consider firing guns in town?
Now I see!
That's why they didn't attack us until now.
What do you mean?
Our enemy is Kirijo.
They're waiting for the Dark Hour to carry out their plot!
Kirijo Security Department Officer: The time has come.
I shall also depart.
Best of luck.
What's wrong? You can't do it because kids are involved?
They are not ordinary children.
We're talking about SuperPower Users who fight monsters with success.
The ring applied for the dark hour...
has not been practically proven to have effect during battle.
There are also reports of complications occurring a few days after the new moon due to heavy tension.
I find it difficult to have my men hold it.
This strategy is about taking control while staying unnoticed, remember.
Don't worry.
If it bothers you that much...
We can erase what is about to happen from your men's memory.
Yes.
The true value of this ring is not about being able to experience the Dark Hour.
It lies within its ability to easily wipe out the sorrow that follows.
Even if you remove this ring your memories will remain...
but if you break it, they'll disappear.
That's the reason it takes such a fragile from.
Quite impressive, isn't it?
I'm counting on you.
Looks like it's not going well.
If only you'd slept for a few more hours...
Everything would've been settled calmly.
Kikuno, why...
To protect you, Young Miss.
Are you pretending to be on my side too?
Have you taken hold of my weakness?
What are you saying?
It's not like that!
The Master is gone now and almost lost your life as well!
Do you have any idea how I felt when I heard that inside the mansion?
Only a fool would send you to battle again!
Kikuno...
that's right.
It is as you say.
Nevertheless, I can't abandon everyone.
Even I, daughter of the head of the family...
Suffered great difficulties.
It'll end as a huge disaster if you apply force.
I'm going to save them.
That is my obligation for making them risk their liv--
You have no obligations or duties anymore!
No, I got the wrong word.
It's my desire, Kikuno.
Stubborn as always.
But I am serious as well.
6 years ago...
When I learned that my stay in the hospital...
Was not because of an illness but because I'd been sold over by my parents...
You were the one who picked me up from my state of despair.
On that day...
I swore I'd devote my life to following this person.
Kikuno.
I am prepared to protect you...
even at the cost of being resented.
Why are you so attached to the people at the dorm...
with whom you only share the same living space?
What do you think they understand?
They watched my back, as I did theirs.
Thanks to them I was able to defeat the shadows and monsters!
In that case, they should foil our plot just as they pierced through those enemies.
Why aren't they here to save you?
Stop playing with words!
It's supposed to be them who'll do the rescue, not you!
If they truly understood you well and were concerned for you from their hearts, they should--
Wait! What do you think you're doing?!
Let me go!
Just surrender will 'ya?
I haven't done anything wrong!
That's... Let me--
No way...
No way... Where do you think you're touching, you perv!
Let go!
Hey!!
Come on!!
What's going on?
I apologize for the commotion.
I apprehended an intruder from outside the gate.
I told you I'm no intruder!
Senpai, please explain to this ***.
I am the one who demands an explanation from you.
Miss, actually, she's holding a gun-like object.
An evoker?
What other evidence do I have to prove that I know you?
Let her go.
She speaks the truth about being my friend.
No!
Not so soon.
Kikuno.
For safety's sake, she needs to explain herself.
Impossible.
How did you get here?
These are eastern outskirts different from the principal residence.
There's no way you'd know the Miss is here.
Yesterday, I got a call from senpai.
Miss, were you able to call even though there was no signal due to Takadera's intervention?
Yes. It was quite short though.
I tracked down this place with that number...
And came without giving much thought.
I thought if I managed to get to the station, I'd just need to find the biggest house afterwards.
That number?
Does that mean you were the one who called just now?
Huh?
Still, your explanation doesn't fit.
The phone here uses a special line...
and there's no region attached to the telephone exchange number.
There's no way for you to know this place.
My Mother's home is around here so...
Your Mother's home?
There are a lot of phones there also.
And there's a special number family members can call from and they're the same.
I thought this would be the place.
Yukari Takeba.
Is your Mother by any chance Isako-sama from the Foundation Council?
That is correct but...
So your home really is nearby.
Do you understand now?
Cause the restraints really hurts.
Enough already.
She won't cause trouble.
Understood.
Geez.
Takeba. Why did you go through all this and come here?
Are you kidding me?
I thought you might be thinking something stupid.
Something stupid?
When I talked to you yesterday, I thought you might think of committing suicide.
I don't understand your feelings very well yet...
however, you said some things...
and I wanted to tell you there's no point in that.
Takeba.
How could you ask me...
Why I came with such a calm expression on your face!
I feel like an idiot.
I'm sorry.
Impossible.
In addition to having your movement under surveillance...
your Persona was being tracked down....
and you overcame all those obstacles to get here.
About that Persona tracking, it's no use.
My Persona is different from before.
Wait, how come you can track it?
I can't believe such a crack in our defenses could exist.
Kikuno...
It would appear a miracle has happened.
You know what...
contrary to what my Father's testament says...
I haven't lost everything just yet.
There is something remaining.
My friends.
If freedom is what my Father has given me...
It is the freedom of having a choice.
He told me to choose.
Young Miss.
Takeba, danger is lurking near the dorm as we speak.
Security Department's Infiltration Unit is bound to be preparing a raid.
Huh?
A raid? Eh?
Do you plan on going?
Yes.
They're planning on using the Dark Hour, right?
Follow me, Takeba!
Riding on the bike with you sure gets me scared.
We have no other option.
Are you ready?
Wait a second.
I can't set my helmet right.
Whoa, but I'm wearing a skirt!
No time! Hold tight!
WAAAITT-
Miss.
Mitsuru's Mother/ Hanae: She sure is brave for a being a child of mine.
Madam.
Even though I asked her to forget about the motorcycle.
I apologize.
The fact she managed to go out was a result of your defeat, if I'm not mistaken.
Did you notice?
I was surprised by her behavior outside the mansion.
Did you see her face when she was speaking to her friend?
I'd never imagine she would have such a soft side when interacting other than us.
Every time I meet her, I see a new expression of hers.
A happy one...
A lonely one...
I feel a bit of regret.
But you'll receive hard treatment afterwards, you know.
Maybe even I won't be able to save you.
Yes, I understand.
You'd better not tell Mitsuru about that later.
I agree.
Will you be alright?
The real pleasure of this job is about withstanding so much...
for the people you follow with your heart.
I'm glad to be doing it.
Kikuno-san...
I'd like to thank you on behalf of my daughter.
I'm really glad...
You were the one who was by her side all this time.
Madam.
Thank you.
Yamagishi, what's the situation?
Multiple figures are slowly approaching from the ground floor entrance and the backside.
Alright. We'll fortify the first floor as planned.
Yes.
I'll provide you with back-up from the strategy room.
The evokers are inside that case.
Will you use it?
Our enemy is human.
I'd like to deal with this without using them.
Huh! Leader?!
It's okay.
I'm ok.
Why at a time like this?
Stay in your room.
You've been like this since yesterday.
Don't be careless.
No, it's not like that.
You'll only drag us down in this condition.
Rest inside your room!
Take your evoker just in case.
Sorry for the trouble.
Yamagishi will be in charge of back-up.
Ok!
It'll be Dark Hour shortly.
Your evokers...
Listen. Use them only if they show signs of hostility.
Hey, do you hear that sound?
It's a helicopter.
They've been flying around since morning.
This is!
The sound's too close!
Don't tell me that's normal!
This is bad!
What's wrong?
Well, above you...
What was that?
There's no question about it. We were infiltrated just now.
You're joking.
Don't tell me they came through the roof?!
Weren't they supposed to come during the Dark Hour?
Anyway, we gotta go up.
You can't!
Yamagishi!
I'll disguise myself now so I'll be fine even if they get here.
It's far more dangerous if one of you is taken hostage.
More importantly, be careful down there, I sense movement!
What the?!
KSD Officer: Main target secured.
The evoker case..
KSD Officer: Don't move. Resistance is futile.
So it is you, after all.
I did not want to meet you again under these circumstances.
You did such a heavy raid through the front door.
Weren't you supposed to wait until the Dark Hour?
Not necessarily.
There is more than one way to avoid being seen.
Don't tell me...
that the construction building outside was meant to cover you?
Precisely. Together with the helicopters hovering all morning too.
It's no use.
Your firearms' sensors don't consider us enemies.
Your ammunition won't load.
Lower them.
Did you not choose to be frozen so that you may never point them at humans once more?
I...
Good. We've taken control of the first floor.
Begin search of the remaining member after you restrain them.
Affirmative.
First floor secured. Continue with the search.
Hey, Yamagishi. Can you hear me?
Yes.
Are you alright?
Yes. I'm surrounded but I'm fine for now.
There's no time.
Let's bet on our last chance.
I'll create a diversion.
Aigis, when I give you the signal...
do an all out body slam on the guy holding the evoker case.
A body slam?
If they hide away the evoker case we have no means of counterattack.
Luckily, they look off guard.
Aigis, I trust our survival in you.
I'm counting on you.
I...
But senpai, how are you going to create a diversion?
I'm gonna take one down one of 'em.
Senpai!
Hey.
Hm?
What are you planning on doing to us?
If you offer no resistance, we won't inflict any harm on you.
Perhaps you'll establish supreme control over us?
Or since this is the Kirijo Group, you might have something to mess with our memories.
It's none of my concern.
Whichever it may be, I refuse.
Even if I have to make myself clear by using force.
What?!
What the?
Who let him move?!
Now! Aigis!
I...
Aigis, what's wrong?
Aigis!
My... body... won't move.
Why?!
Aigis?
Aigis, c'mon!
Dammit!
He blocked it?!
I see now.
However thick my protective equipment may be, I can't take a punch in the neck area.
That's how you took me down.
However, if I know where you're aiming....
Dealing with you should be a cinch.
Sanada-san!
I underestimated you a bit.
Hey, signal to everyone on board.
We're moving them to the helicopter.
Land on the road.
What the hell?
Aigis, what happened to you?
I don't know.
But my body's shaking and I can't move...
although there's no sign of malfunctions.
What's going on?
There's a loud noise coming from outside. Could it be that...
Pharos: Oh no, you don't.
You'd better not open the window.
It's as you thought.
Your boorish guests have intruded.
They start such a ruckus only a few days before the full moon.
Don't tell me you're thinking of going out in this condition?
You're the one responsible for this, aren't you?
Quit it already.
I have to go to them...
Tell me now, aren't you frightened?
Huh?
I am afraid you know.
I'm afraid of losing you.
You were thinking about your friends just now, weren't you?
It's funny.
Thinking about that with the risk of your own life.
You don't have to answer me.
My my... You're unbearable.
But that's what I like about you, you know.
Okay, I got it.
I'll do something.
Huh?
Truth be told, I don't really want to contact her though...
Lemme go! Let me go, I say!
It hurts! Stop!
Umm...
You are an equipment material.
You'll be collected shortly through a different method.
Where are you taking everybody?
What good will it do you if I told you?
You will never meet them again.
Gather up all the items you have secured.
Understood!
This is Code 02...
I...
gather up all the items secured outside the entrance.
I am...
How much longer do you intend to stand put?
Who's there?!
Looking for me won't help you.
Only my voice is what reaches you.
Who are you?
Somebody like you.
I don't want to lose the chump resting on the 2nd floor.
Do you understand why you can't move by your own will?
No, but...
You almost killed everybody.
You don't want to hurt anyone anymore.
You can't stand having to hurt.
Yes, that's true.
You know, we're alike.
Despite lacking warmth, we were shown the joy of living.
Don't be afraid of that feeling of yours.
But that's something you can't change.
To live means to change.
To choose something different than what you have now.
What you don't choose, you'll lose.
There is something you can gain only by losing.
That's what they call subtle grace [yugen].
Yugen?
As long as you're alive, even if you don't do anything, time becomes lost.
Which is why if you have something truly important to you...
you can't afford to waste time on fear.
Do you have such a thing?
I... Yes, I do.
Something really important. An important person.
In that case, you have to fight your fear.
I will!
If that's what it means to live!
Unfortunately I have no body so I can't lend you my strength.
However...
No...
That's enough.
Just as I thought, nothing but a heart is capable of moving another heart.
Aigis!
No matter what I lose...
I'll never lose my friends!
Never!
Battle Mode!
What?!
Aim set!
Impossible! You shouldn't be able to use your weapons!
Attack her!
Wha?! No way!
You have a lot of weak points.
Take this!
Aigis, everyone's inside the chopper!
Ah, but there's a lock.
No problem.
I specialize in lock-picking.
It's open.
Do you call that lock-picking?!
Aigis-san!
Ai-chan, you're back!
Man, you're so late!
Get out fast.
Aigis, can you break these handcuffs?
Affirmative.
Hey, you're not gonna...
Done.
Warn us! Warn us before you do something like that!
W-Whatever.
I'm used to this now.
Forget about that, secure the case!
I bet it's inside the cockpit. It won't be easy to obtain by ordinary means.
I shall retrieve it.
Pardon me!
What are you doing?
I'm taking back what was stolen.
Who the hell are you?
Found it! I'll be retrieving this.
What happened? Why didn't he oppose you?
I don't know.
It appeared like the pilot wasn't feeling rather well.
It could be a chronic disease spasm.
I don't think so.
It doesn't matter, we were in luck.
Grab the evokers quickly.
That's as far as you go.
This is our last warning.
Give up your resistance.
Delivering you completely unharmed was not issued in the orders.
Leave the case at your feet and back off.
Easy now.
Damn it!
Everyone? Sanada-senpai? Are you okay?
We're all in one piece but...
We lost the case.
No. Don't lose hope yet!
Huh?
That sound..
A bike?
Hey, isn't it Dark Hour right now?
Is that...
Penthesilea!
Miss? Why is she here?!
Mitsuru!
I'm gonna puke...
And Yukarichi's sitting behind her?!
Looks like I made it in time.
Aigis, pass the evokers inside the case to everyone.
Affirmative.
The tables are turned now.
Miss, do not be swayed by your temporary emotions.
This is all to protect something much more important.
You employ specialized equipment to assault students?
Listen to me.
I know that your leader is Takadera.
I'll handle him, don't worry.
So it can't be helped.
Cockpit, can you hear me? Take off immediately.
Ascend and await orders to shoot.
Damn it.
Even the chopper is specially armed.
Cockpit, what's wrong?
This is... a Shadow!
Where is the shadow? I can't see it!
Oh no, it's inside the chopper.
Look out, Takeba!
Why did you push me away?
Senpai!
I'm fine! I can handle it.
Miss!
Why has a shadow appeared inside the cockpit all of a sudden?
I believe the pilot is the reason for its spawn.
However, our priority now is saving Mitsuru-san who's trapped inside rather than guessing the cause.
It transformed!
There's hug face on its front now!
This is bad!
It's about to take off!
Kirijo-senpai!
Senpai!
Yamagishi, track it!
Affirmaive!
Wait, stop!
The hell's wrong with you? It's no time to be arguing!
Calm down!
It's not an enemy you can catch up to by running.
Don't act like you're the boss!
Whose fault do you think this is, huh?
You are right. I'm not in a position to speak.
However, you won't accomplish anything if you act on instinct.
Is there a way to catch up to it?
We can't use the Miss' bike.
The roads are also completely blocked.
But what if we use her legs?
That's right! Aigis can do it!
It might be possible...
but my offensive equipment consists only of a machine gun.
There's a risk I might pierce through the target.
A precise shot is required to eliminate the shadow only.
It's impossible to do it while pursuing it.
But if we just sit here, it'll take her over the sea.
Yamagashi, everyone, can you hear me?
Senpai!
I heard the details.
Aigis, don't be concerned.
Aim on it when it goes above the water and shoot it down.
Shoot it down?!
The shadow's gone crazy.
It appears to be on a rampage.
I believe it's flying towards Port Island.
If it continues, there's a big chance it may hit a skyscraper.
You have to stop it before it causes major damage!
But then you'll also...!
I can't be saved under these circumstances.
At least prevent other people from dying!
Mitsuru!
I'm sorry! It seems the shadow's power has grown!
What is this...
How could this be happening...
Yukarichi...
Hey, you're the senpai's bodyguard, aren't you?!
Tell me! What do I need to do to save her?!
Since it's gone above the sea, to be honest, there isn't much we can do...
It's your fault, right?
There's gotta be something!
The shadow is immune to attacks other than that of a Persona user.
Which means you need to get into contact with it first.
You're saying we have to make it turn round to come here?
How's that?!
I doubt a human is capable of that...
Forcing a shadow on rampage to comply is nearly impossible.
Forcing it to comply...
Doctor: She infuses her power forcibly.
She doesn't only scan you...
she can even change you!
Ahh!
Junpei-san, what's wrong?
Ahh.. well... About that...
We might be able to force it.
Or maybe not...
What do you mean? Just say it!
Umm... I think Chidori can do something like that.
That's right.
She was able to penetrate inside Lucia and managed to interfere with her from a long distance.
If we used that power then...
But he hospital's on the side of Port Island...
and we can't get there before the chopper.
Besides, I don't know if Chidori will want to help us.
I believe I can arrive there first.
Luckily the enemy is rampant and flying dizzily.
However, I can't help in persuading Chidori.
Then take Junpei with you!
What?
I see.
Huh?! Wha-?!
Ai-chan, my neck... hurts!
Commencing sprint.
Please hang on!
Maximum speed!
Looks worse than when I was in his place.
Problem is, even if we call back the monster...
What do we do afterwards?
Furthermore, we can't use our firearms.
A special method where we can defeat the shadow without harming its insides is necessary.
There is one.
If I do it, it clears all the conditions.
I'll shoot it.... with my bow.
Ahm.. I can't sleep.
What's with this noise during the Dark Hour...
Chidori-san.
Chidori-san!
Please open up!
No way.
The windows?!
Do they realize which floor this is?
If you don't open, it'll result in the window being destroyed.
Being this season, it is rather cold.
N-no... Stop!
I apologize.
The front door was closed.
What's the meaning of this?
Junpei-san will elaborate on the situation.
Junpei?!
I'm gonna puke...
Translating what he said, we'd like you to lend us your strength.
Huh?
That buzzing thing flying outside...
I want you to use your power on him...
make it turn back.
I have no idea what you're talking about.
My friend's inside.
But she was abducted by the shadow...
and won't be able to save her on our own.
No way!
That's not my problem!
You're the only one who can help!
To be honest, I'd never want to ask you to use your persona.
ut... her life's in danger. I beg you!
It matters not to me what happens to your friend.
Chidori!
Don't touch me!
So what if she dies?
Hey, Chidori, are you really okay with that?
I know I have no right to be asking you this but...
If you have even the slightest conscience that you can't let her die...
you shouldn't look away.
What? Are you preaching me?!
You've changed from before, don't you see?
You laugh and you feel different about life now.
If you lie to yourself, you'll definitely end up regretting it.
I don't want you to feel like that!
Junpei, we're running out of time!
It'll fly past the see soon.
Aigis, break it onto the shore!
Senpai!
Shoot it down while it's still above the sea!
Aigis, wait!
I'll hold it down for a few minutes with warning shots.
Until then, I trust you'll persuade her.
Do you think she'll let me carry her?
However, I need to enter Orgia mode in order to perform an all-out attack while moving.
I will be immobilized once it ends.
In other words, this way we'll lose the chance to take it down.
So if I screw up, we're out...
Still, I trust you.
Junpei-san and Chidori-san too.
Nothing but a heart is capable of moving another heart.
Aigis....
Here I go.
Orgia mode! Limiter Full Break!
Chidori, please!
But I don't even have an evoker to summon my persona.
Take mine!
I'm begging you, Chidori!
Fine...
but only this time!
Chidori!
And in exchange for my help, you'll never visit me again!
Okay.
Right, now what should I do?
To the roof. C'mon.
Ju-Junpei, don't touch me!
Whoa, you're so light!
Are you eating right?
Put me down! Put me down, I said!
We're here.
It sure was exhausting running up the stairs with somebody on your back.
I feel like I'm gonna die.
That flying creature...
is she trapped inside it?
It'll be here soon!
Chidori, I'm counting you!
Junpei-kun, Aigis is at her limits! Junpei-kun!
Chidori, I believe you!
I'm your friend no matter what!
Whether you fail or not, I'll still be your friend!
Come forth Medea!
The shadow is headed for you!
Quiet!
I can't focus.
Damn, it's close!
Is it because Chidori's calling out to it?
Run away, Junpei-kun.
Chidori, look out!
Don't worry.
Please return...
to where...
you came from.
Huh?
Wow, the shadow reverted its course!
Chidori!
That did it, right?
Yeah.
Perfect!
You're awesome!
I can't breathe!
Let me go!
My bad.
Oh, that's right.
I promised not to touch you and disappear from your life.
That's not what I meant.
It's okay now so...
You can stay... a bit longer.
Chidori!
Thank you!
I'm really thankful!
Why are you crying?
I thought I succeeded.
Junpei and Chidori succeeded in making it turn back!
Really?
Junpei-san, you're great!
Alright! That's one obstacle less!
However, the enemy's movement is swifter than before!
It'll be back in a moment.
There's no time. We must do a final revision of the plan.
It sure is high when you look at it from above.
Its height measures in 160 floors.
This building's rather noticeable for it to act as camouflage in dire situations, though.
Takeba-kun, you'll be aiming from the south-east corner.
Ok.
If only the shadow disappears without damaging the airframe, it won't crash.
We'll retrieve it via remote device and land it near the rim.
Understood.
Will you do it?
It's fine if you give up.
Nobody will blame you.
Your bow's range is 50 meters at most.
If you lure him in that close and miss...
you'll die.
Takeba, that's enough. Evacuate everyone.
Senpai?
The cockpit controls still function to a certain extent.
I'm not able to operate it but at least I can divert it from its course a bit.
Senpai, don't tell me you're thinking of..?
I'll make it crash into the construction building area.
Huh?
Don't be stupid!
Is your faith in us that weak?
To be frank, I can't bear it anymore.
I don't want others to die for my sake!
And you're gonna sacrifice yourself because of that?
Do you know what you're leaving us with?
Why do you take on so much by yourself?
Takeba.
Is that really ok with you?!
Don't you want to see your friends and family again?!
And to survive?!
Why can't you just be honest?!
Of course I want to!
But... that is... what should I say?
It's always like that...
Whenever I get soft or burden others...
They might end up dying again.
When I think of the people who fell victims to the shadows...
Aragaki, and my Father...
Senpai...
What am I supposed to tell you after all that happened?!
Even if I am afraid and wish to be saved...
What do I say?!
What should I say?!
I see now...
That's what you meant when we talked yesterday.
That's right...
You're not calm.
You're not strong either.
It's just that you didn't know something utterly simple.
All because you're pressured by so many people.
Takeba.
You know, at time like this, you say "Help me".
This isn't about being weak.
There is no person who shouldn't be allowed to say "Help me".
The enemy's increased its speed. It's heading towards us.
I... I will..
Fuuka, cut the signal already.
There's no need for persuasion now.
Yukari!
Yukari-chan!
I know what I must do now.
Geez...
Why do I always get to do the toughest part?
Takeba...
You're assigned with the deathblow...
because only you can do it.
Sanada-senpai!
That's right!
It's not just about flattery.
Thank you!
I'm totally ready now!
Pharos: Guess it's time I removed your restraints.
How is everyone?
A shadow has become their enemy now.
That's some speed it's moving with.
However, you're friends are too distracted by its velocity to notice the change in its strength.
Explain to me! What has occurred?
If something happens to them, I'll...
Don't jump to conclusions now!
They're fine... for now.
But we should hurry.
In order to change fate...
We're gonna need that special power of yours.
Special power?
It's also my power as well.
You couldn't quite handle it in April...
But in now you can master it.
The shadow enemy will come soon.
Yukari-chan, be prepared.
Wait, what is this?
What's wrong?
The shadow's density is different than before.
Does that also go for its abilities?
An attack from such a distance?
All units, retreat!
No! I can still...
Fall back!
It's no use!
You'll be shot down!
So-Someone's coming from downstairs!
An attack is approaching!
Takeba!
Persona!
Leader!
Sorry I'm late.
This can't be!
He used himself as a shield?!
Are you hurt?
That's not a real bullet, but a power shot...
So I can block it with my persona somehow.
Really?
Sanada-san, that means we could also...
Yeah. We can't let a sick person steal our spotlight!
Hey! Don't tell me you're all going to act as a shield?!
Are you sure about this?
Don't lose focus.
Take it down after its next shot.
We'll keep you safe no matter what.
Alright!
Can you even aim right under these conditions?
No worries.
What's important...
...is the feeling that follows.
I have to aim with my heart.
I've never had such a clear image of the hit.
I feel like...
...I can shoot down the stars in the sky now!
500 meters until the enemy is within shooting range...
450...
400...
A third wave is coming!
It's your turn, Caesar!
Come forth, Kala-Nemi!
Go, Thanatos!
All out defense!
200 meters...
150....
Yukari-chan!
Now!
Senpai! I'll save you now!!
Direct hit!
Land unit! Establish control! Turn it left immediately!
Affirmative!
Did... I do it?
Shadow Signal...
Eliminated!
We did it!
The airframe has lowered its speed and started descending.
That proves that regular controls have been restored.
It'll land on the road in front of the dormitory soon.
Mission...
Accomplished!
Alright, we did it!
Senpai! How is Kirijo-senpai?
Senpai!
Senpai!
Are you hurt?
I'm okay.
I sure made you worry, didn't I?
Damn right you did!
Not just today...
But before that too!
What's up with that?
When you cut the transmission...
I didn't think I was going to die anymore.
I didn't have the chance to tell you...
Thank you, Yukari.
Mitsuru! Senpai!
Everyone, thank you so much.
There are no words that can express my gratitude.
Miss!
I appreciate your help too.
But given the situation...
Are you my enemy at the moment?
All units!
Ground troops and those on the roof, please hear me.
You witnessed the recent state of affairs.
I have one thing to ask of you.
Those in favor of rearresting, confiding inside the chopper and taking away the students, speak up now.
Thank you.
I share your opinion.
Operation terminated!
Prepare to regroup!
Will this suffice as an answer to your question,Miss?
Of course.
Thank you.
It's me.
It took longer than expected.
I thought it would end during the Dark Hour.
Sir, I regret to inform you but the mission has failed.
What are you saying?
You're up against plain children.
Not ordinary children.
Is that not what you told me earlier?
Cut your smart talk.
Explain the details.
The Young Miss made me realize...
I'd mistaken the one I must serve.
I repeat.
The mission has failed.
I shall return to base.
Hey! You ***! Hey!
The Miss is over there?
I'm heading for the outskirts.
A few of you follow me.
Servants: Understood!
Well if it isn't Takadera-san.
Look up, the moon is beautiful.
Why did you let the miss go?
It is as you said.
I won't betray the one I serve by my heart.
Do you truly consider it a good idea to switch sides?
Let's stop it already.
We had nothing to protect that was worth tricking somebody to employ our plan.
Nothing can erase the fact that the Miss was related to Ikutsuki, regardless of her social position.
Due to that we must have her resign.
But this time it'll be for more than just one night.
You are in possession of such information concerning the Miss, are you not?
I have nothing to hand to you.
This isn't a deal.
If you refuse, we'll have you test the productivity of the Ergonomics Laboratory with that body of yours.
There are no means of preventing it.
How dreadful.
However, there is a way.
What are you talking about?
Takadera-san, you do know what makes this ring so valuable, right?
Hey! Hold on! Don't tell me...!
Do you intend to break your ring?!
I wouldn't be standing all alone in the garden without a plan, you know.
That's 6 years you're going to lose!
6 years of experience during the Dark Hour!
As an appointed servant to the miss...
I am a Specialized Bodyguard despite my apron.
How foolish of you to ask me whether I am prepared.
Don't you value what you have?
Your ability, your sense.
You stand above other people.
You realize that, don't you?
Takadera-san, you would never understand.
What do you mean?
The joy of serving.
Stop!
Farewell, Takadera-san.
[UNFINISHED]
Discarding 6 years of memories for the sake of somebody else...
I don't get it.
The hell is this?!
Senpai, are you hurt?
Thank you for your concern.
There is nothing to worry about.
I have returned.
Aigis-san! Welcome back!
I bring back Junpei-san, who I had borrowed.
Why did she have to rush on the way back too...
I'm gonna die...
There's no need for us to talk outside in the middle of the night.
Let's go inside.
Sorry, but there's something I need to take care of at home first.
ou mean you're not gonna spend the night here?
It's not over yet.
Aigis, please accompany me.
Affirmative.
Takadera, is everything going to be alright?
With the way things are, I fear for our power as relatives...
You will be responsible if our sins become known to the world.
I take it you are aware of that.
Miss?
I thought you'd show up if I came here.
Let's end this, Takadera-san.
Is it your belief that I have done it out of sheer greed?
Do you realize how dreadful it would be if Kirijo group,
which maintains more than 2% of the working population, becomes unstable?
We must prevent even the slightest possibility of that happening.
Even at the cost of selling your soul and commit evil?
The distinction between good and bad is something people have created.
Originally, nothing was meant to be judged.
It is not out of arrogance, but out of obligation that we choose to abide by that.
As I told you before...
To become an adult means to be able to have a broader view.
Upon gaining that view, the decision of what you will chose is not something determined by whether you're an adult or not.
It's your way of living that counts here.
Well then, do you intend to make a public announcement regardless of what follows?
About the shadows and so on?
That is my path in life.
I cannot stray from it.
Is that so...
In that case, there's no other choice.
Takadera-kun!
We already discussed that it would come to this.
If we let this slip, there'll be no future for us or for Kirijo.
Am I wrong?
T-That's right!
Yes! This is all for the sake of Kirijo!
We'll have you come with us, Miss.
How sad, Takadera-san.
Aigis!
Ai-Aigis...
Please lower your guns!
You?!
The time I need to activate firing functions is equal to 1/25 of yours.
You appear to be quite arrogant, despite having no chance of winning!
You cannot see or touch somebody's heart.
Why do you believe you can restrain it by force?
Takadera-san. Even if force is needed to protect your happiness,
If you trash your heart in the process, you won't be able to enjoy it.
The one and only thing that can make a heart feel complete is the heart itself.
So even if you can't protect your happiness, you shouldn't afford to do anything else.
Ta-Takadera-kun?
I see clearly now.
Please do as you see fit, Miss.
I will not interfere any further.
Even if I do, it would end in vain.
Takadera-kun!
S.E.E.S. will be continued with the budget surplus from the Ergonomics Laboratory.
Then, I'll take my leave.
The hell is this?!
Sacrificing our lab for that underworld?!
Why has the Security Department changed sides?
What is going on?!
It would appear the Miss has inherited the strong heart of our late leader.
We had no chance ever since that happened.
Good morning, Mother.
Mitsuru...
I apologize for making you worry.
I am the one who should apologize for dragging you along something so dreadful.
You faced a lot of hardships.
I made a decision just now.
About my own path.
I see...
You know, succeeding a distinguished family means to live as a minority group.
To embrace good and bad.
To gain and to lose.
Above all, stepping further than usual...
Means turning yourself into a minority.
In others words, there will be less people that can understand you.
In such times, those who lack these people run away.
But a person like you who has them won't run way.
It will be a hard trip.
I fully understand that.
But someday, a person who understands you even better than I do shall appear.
Or perhaps, they might already be by your side.
Yes.
I shall stay as housekeeper of this house from now on.
Visit me from time to time.
Together with that special someone.
I will!
Kikuno, are you here?
Is she resting?
Kikuno. I'm coming in.
This is..?!
Has she broken her ring?
What has happened?
If it's broken, then she must...
Hello.
Kikuno?
Miss.
Umm.
It's been a long time.
It isn't much but...
Please accept my deepest condolences.
Miss?
S-Sorry.
Where are you now?
I apologize.
I collapsed while on duty and I was taken to the hospital.
I see...
The Hospital...
Kikuno?
How amusing.
Were you surprised?
Uh... Umm...
I haven't forgotten.
About the inheritance or our argument yesterday.
Yo-You fooled me?!
But... your ring was broken.
Actually I have the ability to experience the Dark Hour from before.
What? Since when?
Since I swore to support you at the cost of my life.
Ever since that very day.
6 years ago?
Then why were you wearing the ring?
But of course...
For a time when something like this would happen.
I said it before.
You shouldn't let in on your friends if you want to fool your enemies.
How was I supposed to know?
Really, you had me worried.
Thank you for your concern.
I will return to in a few days so it doesn't look like I set it up.
Please go on ahead until then.
Ok, I understand.
Good b...
Kikuno!
Thank you so much.
You are welcome, Miss.
Now then... what should I do until I can return?
Hey... you can't use your phone inside the hospital.
Ah, please forgive me.
I will make sure to call after going outside next time.
Let's get along as roommates.
It was a single room until now...
Why does it have to be me?!
You know, a long time ago I was admitted inside this room too.
How about I tell you about the Jinx that exists here?
Jinx?
If you stay here...
Someday, the one destined for you will come to see you.
Do you have such a person?
It's none of your business!
Oh, right.
I've got some spare time now so I should head over to thank her.
Let's see... I took my phone, handkerchiefs,..
Hey ya.
You?
Oh sorry, are you going out?
You have school?
Alright, I'll be brief then.
You know... I felt it during our last endeavor...
Who I truly am.
I wanted for you to understand...
But it's not use...
Everything is too upside-down.
Upside-down?
We need to start all over from scratch as friends.
That's why this time I'm taking away the memory of the time we spent together.
Huh?
I'll forget too.
Next time we meet, it'll be face to face as humans.
W-wait!
However, when I think of what's in store for us ahead...
There will be a day when our memories will return in a flash.
I wonder what form I will be in then...
Maybe a human-like one.
See ya.
What was that?
Oh right, school!
Hello!
We're here!
Welcome!
Sorry, I've got a guest right now.
Shall we come later?
No, It's ok!
After all, we're here to discuss what to give Kirijo-semai to cheer her up, right?
Actually, I got a call from the president during lunch break...
And she seemed rather in good spirit so I'm not so worried.
She even gave us tasks to complete.
Oh, really?
She might be back to her old self....
As if like nothing has happened before the school trip...
I wonder.
I doubt it's that simple.
Senpai?
You know, I've experienced the same.
At a time like this, everyone treats you kindly and you cheer up...
but losing someone important is not something you can overcome so easily.
But of course, that doesn't mean we should leave her be!
Especially when it comes to her.
Takeba-senpai...
If it comes to that, I'll even slap her to make her snap out of it!
How reliable!
Only you'd suggest slapping the President!
Actually I was thinking of treating her to something delicious rather than just giving her a present.
That's why I'd like to borrow the kitchen rather than discussing what to choose for her.
Seriously?
Not you too...
Actually, right now...
Hey Takeba-kun, can you sense that offensive smell?
Huh?
You're right.
What could that be?
I apologize, Yukari-san.
I made some mistakes...
What?!
Wha- Dont tel-... Is that the smoke coming through the door?!
I failed at cooking to some extent.
To some extent?
Was that an explosion just now?
To be honest, as a servant...
I've never been entrusted with cooking so...
Huh? But then...?
I guess I just decided to come suddenly...
It might turn out we are quite similar, huh.
Whoa... wait... No---...
What are you comparing it to?...
In any case, the smoke is quickly spreading!
Oh, c'mon! How can the maid of the supreme Kirijo Family be incapable of cooking?!
We should do something about the Kitchen!
Umm... Call 119?
Nah, that's a bit too much.
If you'd like to cover up everything, shall we call the Security Department to our aid with the chopper?
Stop it! Deal with it by using common knowledge!
I can't take it anymore! Senpai, come back already!
