Ayanagi Police Station Toyama Prefecture
This.
Information on the chemicals detected in that boy's bloodstream.
It's a new unregistered medication.
They can't discern part of the chemical's composition, or how it was made.
Also...
There was a person who came to look at the unidentified body from NNIL.
We found out that person was using a false identity to conceal his visit.
He came to look at that body.
They said he was a young male.
I see.
Ryo.
About Jun-kun's surgery...
I told Shin-kun.
He didn't say anything?
No.
He was more reassured than surprised.
He figured that's maybe why he felt like Yuki is inside Jun.
It wasn't something I should've brought up.
I'm sorry.
Hey... Don't you think you treat Shin-kun too much like a kid?
He sure is thinking a lot...
and he's aware of a lot of stuff.
She might be right...

I don't think there's anything to worry about anymore.
You've done well for ten years.
I didn't...
Thank you very much.
You were lucky to have met such a good doctor.
Not just ten years ago, but even now, there have been so few documented successes...
Is the doctor not here anymore?
No...
He didn't actually belong to this hospital.
He was here looking for his missing child,
and he happened to be visiting Ayanagi City.
Beyond his scope as a brain surgeon...
He had many significant achievements in the field of psychology.
Normally, we would've given up on someone in Jun-kun's state.
However...
Revealing patient information is strictly forbidden -Komatsubara Keisuke
It was an operation depending on a miracle.
If the late doctor hadn't left a proviso,
I'd jump at the chance to present the case at a conference.
Oops... Excuse me.
Did he pass away?
Yes.
Revealing patient information is strictly forbidden -Komatsubara Keisuke Yes.
Revealing patient information is strictly forbidden -Komatsubara Keisuke I heard he got in an accident in Tokyo.
Hey, why didn't you tell him I've been saying weird things lately?
What? Well...
You're weird to begin with.
How was Tasaka-senpai?
She hasn't improved much.
But when Megumi-san said "I'll be back," she looked like she smiled a little bit.
Really?
I thought she smiled a little, too.
Are you sure?
Aniki...
Hello.
N-nice to meet you.
H-hi.
You shouldn't come to the hospital in such a big group.
What are you here for?
Visiting an acquaintance.
If they weren't there, Tasaka Yumi would've died.
...Something is taking advantage of her broken heart and broken Persona.
What is that something?
I don't know.
Anyway, what I can say for sure is that Inui has finally found them.
There's a strange one mixed in, too, but they're all significant awakenings.
It wouldn't be wrong to say they are the Special A Latents we almost gave up on.
By the way, there was a kid named Kanzato in the report...
That's my brother.
So it's true that you were the one who saved senpai.
I happened to be there.
Did you know she was gonna be involved in an accident?
How could I?
I heard she won't tell anyone about that accident.
What happened?
I can't tell you that, out of duty.
You asked the doctor in Tokyo to write a reference for Jun, right?
I had completely forgotten about it. Thanks.
Sure.
Thank you!
Doesn't look like he's just getting groceries.
I wonder if he's waiting for someone?
They're clean?
Yeah.
I did all I could, but looks like DSI is purely an organization for psychological research.
At least for now.
Their early records contain some proof of their involvement in the project.
However, ever since that man died in the accident...
Persona research has been virtually abandoned.
However, what the Marebito's control are definitely Complex Personas.
Right.
There must be someone following the footsteps of Komatsubara.
I gave you a year's supply half a year ago, if I remember correctly.
...They're not working as well as they used to.
It only means your limit is near.
It's almost a miracle that you're able to use your Persona at your age.
You should know that long-term use of the pills can be life-threatening.
Are these really from the batch you made during that project back then?
By that, you mean?
Are you guys still providing...
If you'd like to keep receiving our support, I'd recommend not asking any more.
Follow him!
Yes, sir!
Ito-san and Narasaki-kun! What a coincidence!
I'm sorry, I didn't know you guys were tailing someone.
Was it a vicious criminal?
No, um...
Don't worry about it.
We thought we had a support witness, but it might be pretty useless.
Well, good...
What were you doing here... Nikaido-san?
Groceries.
Oh.
Anyway... I think this is a good time.
Can I explain myself to correct a misunderstanding?
There's no doubt that Chief Kanzato Ryo and I are old acquaintances...
But my transfer has nothing to do with our personal relationship.
Plus, it's not possible anyway.
Well, nobody said it was...
I just happened to have taken care of the Reverse cases...
but I wasn't given any details.
I'm in the same situation as you, Ito-san... unable to alert the public about this case.
...That's why I have the exact same question.
I don't know what he is thinking.
He might be hiding something really important.
I have a favor to ask, Ito-san.
In the upper cover.
Don't use too much salt.
I know!
I don't get this...
Oh, it's Eiko-neechan.
Jun, take care of the rest!
Niichan, not fair!
Good evening.
You look good in that.
What!? Oh...
Doesn't look like Ryo's back yet.
No...
But he should be back soon if today's his early night...
Why don't you wait inside?
Have some dinner if you haven't eaten.
Okay.
Hello?
Kanzato?
I thought we could identify Marebito's leader from your research...
But if they're an underground organization, in order to get the truth...
Right... We've no choice but to look into that pharmaceutical company.
As long as they haven't discovered a more effective means,
that medicine should still be necessary.
Right...
In exchange for what we find out in this investigation,
I might lose my current title...
What do you mean?
I have been receiving support from that exact medication for a long time, myself.
What!?
As for the age limit regarding a Persona's use, our thoughts are accurate.
I, too, was only able to use my Persona without depending on the medicine for...
Then...
Anyway, back to the topic...
What's the matter, Kanzato?
Komatsubara...
I go by Kujo Mareya now.
Komatsubara Keisuke died five years ago.
You've become admirable, Kanzato-kun.
See you guys later.
What did you need from aniki?
Just something.
Right. I forgot you're not allowed to talk about your work.
Nope. He's not answering.
All right... There's nothing we could do.
About that apron...
Yeah, it was mine. I gave it to him a while ago.
He's a Chief, you know?
I didn't want him staining his uniform while he cooked.
I see...
Were you two dating?
I wonder...
But you like him, right?
Sure, I like him.
The cancellation of that project was unfortunate news for us both.
Even Personas, with god-like appearances and immeasurable powers,
couldn't fight providence.
Personas are merely creations of the human mind.
It cannot be helped.
However, I have the ability to overturn providence.
And the creation of an ultimate existence is about to become reality.
This is meant to be. Not just you, but your two...
No, three siblings have all finally awakened to their special existence.
This is absolutely delightful.
After ten years, all of my wishes are miraculously bearing fruit.
Truly, it was bound to happen, through the desires of the great mind.
First, I want you.
Tomorrow after sunset, I'll wait for you in the snowfield that looks over Cross Valley.
Hey, what just happened?
What was that noise just now?
Komatsubara is still alive.
Shin-niichan is so weird.
He was jealous of both Ryo-oniichan and Eiko-oneechan...
He's the one who let Toma die.
How could he come back like this?
Saki is the one who brought him back.
He lost his wallet and starved himself.
Well, he did the best he could.
Anyway, why is he able to live even after his Persona was extracted?
It wasn't extracted; just cut off.
Same thing, right? Either way...
I don't think they're the same.
He probably has a special body-type.
Even Saki almost died that time.
I really appreciate what you did, Sotaro.
I can understand why he didn't want to come back.
He wouldn't know how to act around us, huh?
Too naïve, Udo.
Not only was he hiding the fact that his Persona had been taken by Kanzato Shin,
he let Toma die. It's a heavy crime.
He's alive.
Toma is alive.
Unfortunately, he's definitely being kept frozen at the inspection lab.
I went to see him for you.
He got killed by Kanzato Ryo.
I'm sure he's being cremated as an unidentified victim by now.
I saw him.
Keep looking for him, if that makes you happy.
Shikura Toma is all of your beloved brother and my significant comrade.
I'll call him back when the time comes.
You remain at Naginomori Academy and stay near the Kanzato brothers.
Yes, sir.
About Yuji...
I have other tasks for him.
The list has been brought up once again.
This area has been considered the most Latent-populated...
However, there aren't many left.
Now is the time to collect all Personas before they face extinction.
We will rule the Sea of Psyche...
and...
become the saviors of humanity's consciousness.

For some, the only choice was to cling on.
For some, the only choice was to vanish.
To reproach and torment them are the sins
of those who invaded the spirits.
Two small lives and futures. A temporary nightmare.
Those that love instead of those that were loved.
A tragic determination.
That is his Persona.
