![]() In P3P’s main story Ken gets most of the same development that he gets in the other versions, but Shinjiro gets more character alongside him. But, uh, the SL takes a turn at rank seven or so, messing with the development it was trying to set up, and cementing it one of the most uncomfortable social links ever lol. (I feel like the movies fix this, but I want to focus on the games for now.) Ken’s social link in P3P tries to address this by focusing on him deciding what kind of life he wants to live as the next step of deciding that he wants to live. He’s pushed to the side for the rest of the game. abandoned after this point? He comes to the conclusion that he wants to keep living in a way that Shinjiro didn’t get to, and then… that’s it. However, I don’t think that this works as well as Shinji reaching that conclusion himself. The resolution Shinji never got in life is transferred onto Ken. ![]() Shinjiro’s death serves as a cautionary tale for Ken on how his life could turn out if he keeps devoting himself single mindedly to hate and revenge, without letting himself live and love others. He dies as he planned, even saying “this is how it should be” as his last words. He doesn’t grow past his passivly-suicidal mindset. He doesn’t have a moment where his views are questioned or challenged. They’ve basically both resigned themselves to living as if they are already dead, with Chidori following Takaya’s orders and not ever considering another way of living and Shinji not acting or helping SEES until his past regrets are staring him directly in the face, making him feel like there’s absolutely no other choice.īut while Chidori connects with Junpei and manages to feel the joy she’d pushed away, even if it’s only in the last few moments of her life, Shinjiro just… dies. I think that he can be best compared to Chidori: both live their lives with the overwhelming knowledge of their imminent deaths, avoiding connection with others because of it. Shinjiro’s outlook on life is not as extreme as these characters, but can still be compared to them. The game tries to depict the dangers of not just accepting, but almost worshipping death through the Nyx cultists that show up later through the game. ![]() Persona 3 deals with the acceptance of our inevitable deaths, of course, but the enjoyment of the lives we have is a key part of this. However, I’d like to explain why I think it makes the story work better in other ways. I completely get why people don’t like that change, and think it cheapens the game’s messages of death or ruins Akihiko’s arc. The changes that Persona 3 Portable made to Shinjiro and Akihiko’s arcs by allowing you to save Shinjiro from death are understandably controversial.
