Difference between revisions of "Minako Arisato/Notable Social Links"

**[[Minato Arisato]]: ''"Joy"'' - Minako's twin brother! He's the older one, if it matters. Separated at the incident at the Moonlight Bridge, they were finally reunited in Mikage-cho. They have a lot of catching up to do, obviously. Right now he's the most important person in the world to her. He had a bit of a split with SEES for a while, but she stayed with them until he returned, to make sure he had a place to come back to. She discovered he's had Death sealed within him. It's something she can't help but be worried about; her worst fear is that they could even be separated from each other again.

**[[Fuuka Yamagishi]]: ''"Beginnings"'' - A fellow third-year and member of SEES. Fuuka strikes Minako as a really shy girl, but she's had some ideas that have left Minako feeling pretty impressed.

**[[Akatsuki Enda]]: ''"Renewal"'' - A graduate from Gekkoukan and another totally handsome SEES senpai. Minako decided to join the tennis club after a practice round with him. After she got sick fighting a giant snake Shadow in the rain (long story), he gave her (more accurately, she stole) her first kiss. He was kidnapped by what she thought was a Shadow, but turned out to be the Shadow-possessed Rena Kinukasa. Thankfully, he was rescued successfully!

**[[Akihiko Sanada]]: ''"Unyielding"'' - Another totally awesome and handsome SEES senpai! Minako once barged into his dorm room to give him Valentine's Day chocolate. Even though he's moved out after graduation, she's made him promise to come back and visit. During the expedition into Shirakawa ward, she and Akihiko ended up in a room alone together. He's been awkward around her since and she's not really sure why.

**[[Shinjiro Aragaki]]: ''"Bravery"'' - Minako's ~senpai~ in SEES. She thinks he is just so cool. And he's really handsome, too! He also has the best girlfriend! Minako has no idea she terrifies him. Once, she had a much more serious chat with him that helped her work out a few of her problems.

**[[Aigis]]: ''"Enthusiasm"'' - A robot! She attends class, too, and even looks out for her brother. Minako thinks it's just ''too cool'' that she's an actual robot. She's promised to protect Minako. Minako's comforted her numerous times, in the wake of her accident in Shion's TV dungeon, to the difficult decision she and Mitsuru had faced, to Minato's temporary departure from SEES. Minako has found out the role Aigis played in the incident on the Moonlight Bridge, and talked to her about it and her feelings. Because of that, their bond of friendship has only strengthened; she's promised to protect Aigis, too. She's been elected student council president of Gekkoukan High!

**[[Chie Satonaka]]: ''"Vitality"'' - An athletic girl her age from Inaba! Minako's given her some pointers on ~romansu~ and her advice seems to have earned Chie a boyfriend! She's also fought alongside her in Shion's TV Dungeon, delivered her chocolate, and given her further suggestions for making her own chocolate. This... sort of ended up with inflicting something truly awful upon other members of SEES.

**[[Chisaki Tohsaki]]: ''"Vitality"'' - A student in her year, and a fellow member of SEES. Chisaki's really into weapons, especially crossbows, which Minako thinks is kind of neat. She also teamed up to help rescue Akatsuki; they investigated together even before the rescue attempt was made. She'd also been behind the graduation party for the SEES senpais, which Minako also helped out with. More recently, they discussed their mutual lack of inspiration for what they wanted to do when they grew up, and decided that they need to talk to someone with more experience in the near future. After all, they have to be totally awesome senpais! Chisaki is the other vice president of Gekkoukan's student council.

**[[Arisa Shiratori]]: ''"Determination"'' - A schoolmate from St. Hermelin that Minako more formally met in Mikage-cho, and later ran into again in the aftermath of that incident. She thinks very highly of Arisa and her sense of resolve, but she also thinks that she's pushing herself a little ''too'' hard. Her foremost wish is to teach Arisa how to relax and have a good time! Raj has asked her to teach Arisa how to cook. Another mission goal has been added!

**[[Ran Itoh]]: ''"Energy"'' - Shinjiro's girlfriend. Minako thinks she's totally awesome and nice. She wants to learn first aid from Ran sometime. They both have similar tastes in manga, which has been another point to bond over.

**[[Jason R. Butler]]: ''"Determination"'' - A detective Minako hired to look into her case. She has asked him to give her some tips for investigation and detective work, since that sounds like a fun job to have someday!

**[[Mamoru Yasuragi]]: ''"Kindness"'' - A young man from Sumaru. He caught Minako after she fell off a building; they later met again when she introduced him to her brother. Still later, she invited him along with some friends to the beach. She may have--okay, she did--fell on him again. At least this time, it wasn't from a great height, though...

**[[Kazuo Kagayama]]: ''"Hope"'' - A man with a tricky history, thanks to time shenanigans. In short, Minako promised to be there for him when things returned to how they'd been, and ''make sure'' he'd get the help he needed.

**[[Mai Namikawa]]: ''"Realization"'' - Minako first met Mai in Mikage-Cho, where she gave the younger girl some much needed support, and they've been friends (by Minako's estimation) ever since. She admires Mai's sometimes quirky nature, and they tend to get along with each other quite well.

**[[Thora Kobayashi]]: ''"Good Will"'' - Quite possibly the strongest girl Minako's ever known. A student at Yasogami, Thora has encouraged Minako to not back down in love. She's also gone to Thora to ask about SEBEC, and what role they may or may not play in Minako's own mysteries. As a result, she knows also what troubles Thora.

**[[Hinata Itoh]]: ''"Delight"'' - A second year at Gekkoukan and another member of SEES. She and Hinata have chatted about manga a bit, and compliment each other well. More recently, they both went to meet with [[Kazuo Kagayama]] before time reset again, and made the man a promise. She is the student council treasurer at Gekkoukan

**[[Jake O'Meara]]: ''"Instinct"'' - A handyman for SEES, who also, apparently, has a Persona. He won a goldfish for Minako at Tanabata!

**[[Raj Kapur]]: ''"Passion"'' - A very vibrant adult! He's from India, and he's a Bollywood actor. Together with him, she planned and executed a dance party that took place during the repeating Mondays. She's promised to watch his commercials when they air on TV. Due to a mishap, he finally awoke to his Persona, but seems to be doing fine as far as Minako can tell. He's currently helping her plan a Bollywood-inspired event for the drama club at Gekkoukan. She has a lot of research ahead of her, though.

**[[Shion Katsuragi]]: ''"Charisma"'' - A detective in Inaba. She came to visit Minako after she got sick from fighting a giant snake Shadow in the rain (long story). Minako helped fish her out of her TV dungeon, although Shion's Shadow badly injured her. She's since discovered Shion can now use Persona, too, and explained the Dark Hour to her.

**[[Tatsuya Suou]]: ''"Attraction"'' - A very taciturn and stoic young man from Sumaru. She can ''totally tell'' he's a great guy, no matter how much he denies it. She tracked him down to give him his Valentine's chocolate early. In person. She came to visit him on campus at Sumaru University, and has now privately vowed to recruit Raj to teach him how to dance and sing.
