Line 25:
* [[Disappointing Last Level]]: ''The Answer'' is often considered this due to largely consisting solely of difficult dungeon crawling without any of the social links or sidequests in ''The Journey'', to say nothing about the issues with characterization.
** If you succeed in finding the route to [[100% Completion]], then midway through December, you should have maxed all but two or three social links. It's very likely you'll have absolutely nothing worthwhile to do over Christmas Vacation. After New Year's Day, the plot is all done except for the last few battles, which can't happen until the end of January. January therefore boils down to an extended [[Action Film, Quiet Drama Scene]] where there's nothing to do except [[Level Grinding]] and wrapping up the last two Social Links.
* [[Easy Mode Mockery]] - In the PSP remake, the descriptions of the difficulty levels have subtle shades of this. Easy mode is passive-aggressively described as being for people who don't have time for tactical combat, as if the game is offended that you aren't playing it seriously. And the description for Normal difficulty implies if you aren't playing on at least that level you aren't enjoying the game at all.
* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]] - Elizabeth, the world's coolest elevator attendant. Another notable example is [[Meganekko|Chihiro]], who is just a Social Link, yet gets to return [[Older and Wiser]] (and [[Hotter and Sexier]]) in [[Persona 4]]. And there's Shinjiro, whose sheer fan popularity might make non-players think he's the main character in the game. [[Badass Adorable|Koromaru]] is given a special spot in most players' hearts (and parties) for general usefulness in combat and coolness.
* [[Ending Fatigue]] - After {{spoiler|The Hanged Man}} no boss fights occur on full moons, your current portfolio of Persona have pretty much hit the top end of power (and with FES fusing, the same is true for equipment) and can last until almost endgame. Fighting (and plot advancement) is restricted to a day a month and you have likely already maxed your social stats leaving nothing to do for many game months but a long long string of social links.
