All right.
Yu Narukami Forever
I told you!
You're not supposed to come near this kitchen, remember?
Why not?
We were just trying to help!
Leave the seasoning to me!
That's the number one dead zone!
What?
Is that all I need to pick up?
Sorry about that... asking you to go out on our account.
Oh, I don't mind.
Besides, Nanako might burst into tears if she's cooped up in the house.
I wouldn't cry!
Let's go.
Okay!
Is something the matter?
Yu, I...
Sensei...
Will you write on this?
What is this?
Time Capsule
Ta-da!
Golden...
You see, I thought we'd all write down our wishes and bury it in the ground.
And then much, much, much later, we're gonna dig it up again!
That is the so-called time capsule!
How did you find out about it?
Here! One for Marie-chan, too.
Write down... my wish?
Yeah!
I don't know. I can't write something like that right now...
You can give it a good, long think!
A wish, huh?
Marie, did you write yours?
D-Don't look at it, okay?
I-I-It's not like I wrote down a wish or anything! It's not a poem, either!
Dummy! I hate you! Peeping Tom! You suck!
I swear, right to the very end you try to read what I've written...
Jeez, why don't you go back to the city already?
I can't believe it. That you're not gonna be here anymore.
Me neither. It hasn't sunk in for some reason.
It just feels way too natural for me to be here...
And besides...
...you have unfinished business?
How did you...?
I can tell.
Why wouldn't I be able to tell?
I wonder what that Midnight Channel was all about?
And this power.
How come I was able to use my Persona from the start?
One more push...
Just one more push, and...
I think I can get a grasp on something...
I see.
So you want to find out the truth.
Hey, it's starting to rain. Should we go in?
What do you think you're doing?
What? What's the problem?
All I did was add a secret ingredient!
I'm gonna give him a hand.
Hey, me too.
Marie!
What's... going on?
Would you like to peer into my memories?
Are you okay, Marie?
What's wrong...
Marie?
That one was pretty huge, huh?
Who... are you?
My name is Izanami.
What did you do to Marie?
You are mistaken.
The one who forgot her place and interfered with me is this one, the one you call Marie.
Had she only wandered aimlessly, I would've left her alone...
Do you really want to be annihilated so badly?
Stop it!
Get... out...
I... am...
Marie!
So you choose to resist?
Then that hope you cling to. I'm going to test its value.
Along with the truth, I'll be waiting for you.
Marie!
Marie-chan!
What on earth is...
What's going on?
Marie...
Yu...
Wh-What's happening?
Marie-chan!
Marie!
This is...
You think that the one we just saw is doing this?
Marie, I'm going to save you right now...
So you've reached it.
The great existence that became the start of it all.
All right!
Awesome, Senpai!
Finish him off!
I'm ending this now!
But please be cautious.
Whether defeating that entity will truly lead to an overall resolution...
I cannot be sure myself.
No!
Yu!
What's going on here?
Let go of us, dammit!
Help!
You guys!
No!
We're sinking!
Save us, Senpai!
Dammit!
Yu...
Why would... Marie...
So you're seeing that one in my place.
That's just not feasible.
What do you mean?
The one you call Marie...
She was once a part of me.
Originally one within me.
I am called Izanami-no-Mikoto.
You're lying... You and Marie couldn't have been one...
That is what you've all been seeking...
The truth.
No matter what you say, Marie is Marie!
She's our precious friend!
The truth... that's what you wanted, right?
Why people stopped seeking the truth...
Because they found out that the truth would hurt themselves and those around them.
You must know this yourself.
How painful it is to seek the truth, how much it hurts others.
And now, your actions are about to erase her existence.
You're the one who will erase her...
If you want to share your life with her,
you have a choice.
Shield your eyes from the truth, and give yourself up to a gentle lie.
A gentle...
lie...
People only see what they want to see, and believe only what they want to believe.
A world covered in fog is what the people wish for,
an element of hope...
Even with those things, you couldn't escape from humanity...
How pitiful...
I don't want it...
If it means losing my precious friend...
I don't want the truth...
I've seen enough.
I'm bringing the car around. Nanako, watch over her.
Okay...
I've got to go...
Big Sis Marie...
Here's some water...
Huh?
That won't do.
You can't fall in a place like this.
Marie...
Right now you've got to stop her... Stop Izanami.
This town will be covered in fog again eventually.
No...
Not just this town. One day that fog will cover the world...
So Yu... Your wish...
Only the truth will defeat Izanami, and become a light that will lift the fog.
No good... If that happens, what'll become of you?
It's all right.
It's not like I'm going to disappear.
I'm just going to become one.
Become one?
Someone who grants everyone's wishes and protects the people...
I'm going to become Izanagi-no-Mikoto.
Wait...
Then what about the Marie right now?
Well, I'm going to become a god. Who I've been till now will vanish.
Why...
...are you smiling?
You won't be able to be with us all, you know!
But it's not something to be sad about.
I'm going to become one with Izanami, and turn into something even bigger.
Someone who protects this town, and all of you...
that's who I'm gonna be.
But... You...
Yu... I'm really glad that I got to meet you all.
It was so much fun... I was just bursting... with happiness.
So I want to go on protecting you all...
You guys, who turned me into me.
That's what I wish for.
Hey, Yu...
What do you wish for?
Show me what humans are capable of to the end... Yu.
Right...
I'm not gonna hesitate anymore.
I...
My wish is...
Ah... Still resisting?
What?
It's human nature to wish for a lie... So why aren't you?
You're wrong. It's not a world covered in fog that they all desire...
Persona!
With such power as this...
This is...
It's not as if my body was starting to disappear.
You and I were just trying to become one.
What?
You exist to grant the people's wishes.
I exist to protect them.
Because we had two conflicting goals, we split into two.
That's right.
And an arrogant wish called "truth" is what will hurt humankind.
That's not true.
Yu's wish isn't his alone.
This wish called truth will eventually lift the fog in everybody's heart,
and his wish will turn into a light inside their hearts.
His wish will protect them all.
His wish will make us all one!
I'll destroy such a thing!
Just one more time... believe in humanity's wish...
Right now, we became one.
Now I can protect the people and grant their wishes.
Once again, I can walk the path of man.
It's all thanks to you.
I see...
From now on,
I'm going to protect them...
This town, all of you...
Forever and ever...
Yes, you are...
Thanks, Yu.
I'll always be near you.
Where could she have gone in that condition?
Dad...
I wish we could stay together forever
This was on the floor.
Senpai...
Hello?
Uncle, it's Yu. It's been a long time.
Huh, so it's you?
I just got here.
Come to think of it, today's the day you're coming, huh?
I totally forgot.
I'm busy right now, so I don't think I can pick you up.
The house is locked up, so you won't be able to get in.
Is that right?
Sorry, but I don't know what to tell you.
Hang out with your buddies or something. Later!
Not picking up.
Dumbass, don't push! You'll blow our cover!
It's your fault for being a slowpoke, Yosuke!
A super-slowpoke!
Why, you... Keep your voice down!
Yosuke?
Come on, let's do this before we're caught!
We're jumping out on a count of 1, 2, 3, 4!
What do you mean 4? It should be 3!
You there?
You really are a nit-picker.
Oh, shut up. Come on, let's go!
Three, two...
Long time no see.
Long time no see...
You surprised me.
You don't have to be nice to us!
Oh, jeez!
What are you doing?
Senpai!
You guys!
Senpai, how've you been? Did you miss me?
How do I look after all this time? Do I seem different?
Am I piercing your heart?
Looks like he was attacked by a bear.
Now you notice?
What was the punchline, exactly?
I don't know what to say...
You've all changed.
Why did you say that looking right at me?
Oh, hey, it's gonna be all right.
Don't try to cheer me up!
Don't worry, we've all changed in little ways.
But Kanji...
What the hell? All right, then!
Just go back to the way it was before, right?
Now, now...
Sorry about our conversation earlier.
They asked me to help so they could surprise you.
No wonder.
So? Did it work?
W-Well, in a way...
I'm home!
Big Bro!
Long time no see.
How've you been?
She's been counting the days till you got here,
but she had lessons all day today.
You know what? I'm taking piano lessons now.
Listen to me play, Big Bro!
Sure! Of course I will.
Somehow it feels like we've gone back in time to last year.
Great memories!
Nanako, it'll be on soon.
Really? I'm gonna turn on the TV!
Up Next: How is the weather going to be?
And now, the weather.
It looks like we'll have this pleasant sunny weather for the rest of the day,
but what about tomorrow and beyond?
What do you have for us, Ms. Kusumi?
Weather Forecast
Hello, hello! I'm Mariko Kusumi.
Yay, it's Marie-chan! I adore Marie-chan!
She's a favorite of Nanako's lately.
She never misses a report.
I was worried about her that day, but she seems to be doing fine.
Um, till yesterday, we had nothing but rain.
So I've decided to make it sunny starting today.
Well, after all that rain, we probably won't have to worry about water shortages this summer.
And besides, since he's here now, rain's just out of the question.
So I'm gonna keep it sunny for a while.
Oh, but if it gets too hot, I will make it rain.
Just give me a heads-up or something right away.
For him, yes...
Marie-chan decides what the weather's gonna be like tomorrow, right?
When Marie-chan says it's gonna be sunny, it's always sunny!
I-I wonder what would happen in this kid's case...?
Oh, and today I have a personal message.
I'm doing quite well.
Yu, I love you!
What?
Was that...
...a confession of love?
She's gonna receive a lot of complaints...
Young people...
All right, please sign off with your usual...
I hope you all have a goooood day tomorrow!
Have a goooood day!
I hear that phrase is really popular.
When you hear it, you mysteriously start to feel cheerful, it seems.
TIME CAPSULE
Ta-da!
What do you think this is?
The time capsule!
Golden...
You dug it up already?
Yeah! I figured if we're gonna open it, why not now?
No, wait, isn't it too soon?
Normally you're supposed to open these up decades later!
It hasn't even been six months yet.
Jeez...
Let's not sweat the small stuff - let's just open it!
No way am I gonna let you!
Whoa...
Nice catch, Chie!
Come on! What are you doing?
Hold on, Nanako, wasn't there something you wanted to say when Yu came home?
Y-Yes...
Um...
Oh, I get it!
I see.
...that's the deal.
- Okay! - Let's do it!
- Yes! - All right?
- Very well. - Roger!
All right. Three, two...
Yu...
- Welcome home! - Long time no see!
Kanji! You're supposed to say "Welcome home!"
Why can't we ever be in sync?
Kanji, you really are...
Well, it's not anything new, is it?
Man, you really haven't changed at all!
You guys...
I'm home.
All right!
Let's all dig in, then, partner!
I wish we could stay together forever
Right!
