Line 5:
** Much like the male protagonist, the female protagonist is also given a tangible personality in her own drama CD. She's is shown to be significantly more cheerful, energetic, childish and certainly more rambunctious. She even gets angry at one point ("Her mouth is smiling, but her eyes aren't...") and later attempts to pummel Kenji when she loses her temper.
* [[Anticlimax Boss]]:
** Strega can be beaten in a single turn every time you fight them {{spoiler|after The Hanged Man}},: they are the only boss fights on full moons, contributing to the [[Ending Fatigue]]. Justified in the case of Strega. They're just persona users, not all that different from your party, and you always outnumber them, so there's no particular reason why they should be hard. The game further justifies this by explaining Strega's link to their Persona as something forced and manufactured. Compared to the SEES kids, who all have natural links with their Persona, Strega don't stand a chance.
** Many of the Full Moon Shadows also come across as sort of pathetic as well, particularly in comparison to the [[That One Boss|tower guardians inside Tartarus]]. This is entirely intentional, since the tower guardians give you the opportunity to heal, save the game and prepare your personas before fighting them, while the Full Moon bosses often restrict you to whatever prep work you did the day before. Strength and the Wheel of Fortune in particular are either this or [[That One Boss]] depending entirely on how good you are at manipulating the latter's roulette wheel attack.
* [[Author's Saving Throw]]:
Line 14:
** [[Robot Girl|Aigis]] seems to be this, some think she's one of the finest examples of [[Character Development]] in the Persona series, others think she's a bland [[Stalker with a Crush]] with [[Squick]] by the bucketload.
** [[Implied Love Interest|Yukari]] [[Mood Swinger|Takeba]], whose insecure, overconfident personality tends to rub some fans the wrong way. Her actions in The Answer doesn't help her much either, but she more than makes up for that.
* [[Complete Monster]]: Shuji Ikutsuki starts off as a seemingly helpful mentor to the protagonists, but by the end of the game, he turns out to be a madman. Like Koutetsu Kirijo, he participated in a experiment to revive Nyx, which caused an explosion that killed hundreds, including TheProtagonistThe Protagonist's parents and Yukari's father. To make matters worse, this created the Dark Hour as well. He also experimented on children including the members of Strega. He manipulates the S.E.E.S.SEES into killing the Twelve Shadows under the belief that it would extinguish the Dark Hour. In truth, killing the Shadows would not end the Dark Hour, and this was what he needed to revive Nyx. Nyx, being the Death Arcana, would wipe out humanity. When Mitsuru's father tries to stop him, he shoots him dead before preparing to do the same to the S.E.E.S.SEES, and would have succeeded if Koromaru didn't stop him. A sociopath who would wipe out all life on Earth just to appease a God that is Made of Evil, Ikutsuki proved himself to be the most vile human in the ''Persona'' series.
* [[Critical Research Failure]]: A rather funny one in the PSP port. Because Fuuka's lines for the [[Bonus Boss]] fight weren't re-recorded from the fight against {{spoiler|Elizabeth}}, when the PC fights against {{spoiler|Theodore}}, Fuuka calls him a "she" at the start of the battle.
* [[Crowning Music of Awesome]] - The final battle theme, "The Battle for Everyone's Souls." The voice for Nyx's Avatar between each phase only turn the awesomeness of the whole fight [[Up to Eleven]].
