We start our journey on Wednesday, April 7, 2010. In the past couple of decades, Shuuryou City, as well as the far majority of the world, has grown to have a general hate and dislike for those select individuals in the world that possess the power known as Persona. To them, these people are no better than the Shadows that plague them as well. As such, many Persona-users have gone into hiding and/or gone to great lengths to hide the fact that they can use a Persona. Unbeknownst to the citizens of Shuuryou City, it has become the capital and prime home of many Persona-users in recent years.

As such, Shadow activity at night has grown in the city dramatically. More and more people are becoming part of The Lost as the days go by, people left in a sort of vegetable-like state who all speak nonsense of “The End” coming. Something is obviously going to happen in the city’s near future. As such, many different groups have converged on the city, intent on possibly stopping… or even bringing about this evident catastrophe. Is this “The End” The Lost spoke of? Maybe. Maybe not. It still remains that the threat of Shadows and Persona-users remain for the citizens.

But even with all that’s been happening and likely will happen… SCHOOL IS STILL IN SESSION! What’s even better is that Shimekiri High School has faced a sudden increase in transfer students, as well as new teachers in this new school year. Who knows? You might make a new friend. ..Or a new enemy.

Without further ado, welcome to Shimekiri High School and Shuuryou City.

THIS. IS. THE. EVE. OF. THE. GENOCIDE!!!
