Plot

A teenager who was orphaned as a young boy returns to the city of his childhood. Shortly after transferring to Gekkoukan High School, he is attacked by Shadows — creatures that feed on the minds of their victims. The assault awakens his Persona, Orpheus, his only chance at defeating these creatures of the night. He soon discovers that he shares this special ability with other students at his new school. From them he learns of the "Dark Hour," a hidden time that exists between one day and the next, swarming with Shadows. He joins the Specialized Extracurricular Execution Squad (SEES), and with his new friends, confronts the threat of the Shadows.

After signing a contract in which he "accepts his fate of his own free will," the Main Character battles with the other members of SEES against the Greater Shadows, incarnations with traits and appearances similar to those of the first twelve Major Arcana of the Tarot. While this is occurring, he continues to encounter and eventually befriends the child who gave him the contract to sign at the very beginning of the game, an entity who refers to himself as Pharos, and is really the incarnation of Death, the thirteenth Arcana. - Wiki

Charas:
Protagonist (You name him)
Yukari Takeba
Mitsuru Kirijo
Akihiko Sanada
Junpei Iori
Ken Amada
Aegis/Aigis (In game it's Aegis but every where else calls her Aigis, I'm not sure what to call her)
Koromaru
Shinji Aragaki
Fuuka (I can't remember her last name)

Strega:
Takaya
Jin
Chidori (I'm not sure if either one has last names)

Spoiler:
I'm not really sure what to put as a spoiler but I think the rules said it required at least one, so sorry people who didn't know this, Pharos is Ryoji, and depending on the choice to kill Ryoji or not the week before the coming of Nyx, the ending out come will vary. Ikutsuki will betray you after all that hard work and sad encounters with "Death."

Amazing game. It's a weird mix between dungeon crawl and dating sim, but it's awesomely fun anyway. By day? You're a normal high school student. But by night, you're a demon slayer! Sounds corny, but it's really, really fun.

The artwork and character design already had me hooked at the beginning though.

If you can get past the whole shoot-yourself-in-the-head-to-cast-spells thing, take a look!

The daytime part of the game was just awesome in general. It's funny how you could be dating (and consummating relationships with) multiple girls over the course of the game. Mitsuru was just plain hilarious with the fast food, and I love her Commu link story, more than with Yukari, Fuuka, or Yuko. Junpei is hilarious, and... HOT SPRINGS!

Ahh... good times.
