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.
* [[Ending Fatigue]]:
** Come November, you suddenly run out of things to do apart from your few remaining social links and have no real pressure to hurry up in Tartarus anymore. Two solid months go by without real plot development.
** The [[Playable Epilogue]] ''The Answer'' is pretty bad too. The end is five boss fights in a row (thankfully, you can save in between them) and long cutscenes.
* [[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.
* [[Fan Nickname]] - In fan circles, the [[Hello, Insert Name Here|officially nameless]] protagonist has acquired the name "Minato Arisato (有里 湊)," the name given to the character in the manga adaptation. The [[Gender Flip]] protagonist in ''Persona 3 Portable'' has been lovingly nicknamed "Minako" by Western fans. She is also known as "Hamuko" (ハム子) by Japanese fans, loosely interpreting the last character of shujinkou (主人公), which means "protagonist," as katakana.
** The J-fandom has nicknamed the protagonist Kitaro, a reference to the similarly [[Peek-a-Bangs|Peek A Banged]] ''[[GeGeGe no Kitaro]]''.
