I see and respectfully disagree with your opinion, Jacob of the Sleepover Society. Persona 2 duology is worth playing, because
*bi protag is best protag. Like, the other characters are all great, but Tatsuya, man.
*Hashino’s not here to insert his anti-lgbtq agenda into the story
*HTE MUSIC
*I am here for the absolutely ridiculous over the top shenanigans that are the Persona 2 story
*eldritch horror
*okay, most of the mechanics are worse, particularly the lack of a persona compendium, but I am also incredibly here for a more equal power system where multiple people can equip multiple personas
*female protag
*adult party members

??? Okay, anyone wanna explain to me why the Joker used a flower symbol of a yellow iris? The hanakotoba I’m getting from multiple sites are ‘loyalty, good news’, and occasionally some other positive things? The closest thing is maybe knowledge, like, seek enlightenment and after you find it I’ll take my revenge, or mayyybe at a stretch ‘finally my day of revenge has come, this is good news for me’, but, like??? From its place in the story I always kind of assumed it was a similar meaning to the orange lily.

Why are Jun’s parents still alive and yet he’s going by Kashihara unlike ‘This Side’? Not even Tatsuya knows.

         “Do you even own a guitar anymore, Tacchi?” Jun asks, and Hanamura-kun gasps and whips around hard enough he accidentally walks into one of the trees on the shrine ground. Seta-kun looks concerned, but other than the wince, the pain can’t overcome the brunet’s excitement.
         “You play guitar, Suou-san?” he gasps, and Tatsumi-kun whistles.
         “Not gonna lie, that’s pretty sweet, Suou-san.”
         Tatsuya, meanwhile, looks like he wants to melt into the ground at all the attention. He can be really shy, though it’s easy to overlook if you don’t know what you’re looking for. “…Yes,” he answers after a bit, flicking his lighter quickly.
         Jun merely raises an eyebrow, silently asking which question he’d been answering, and his dragon answers, “…Both.” He takes a deep breath and continues more normally. “Though it’s been a while. I think it’s at Katsuya and Maya-nee’s, and I haven’t touched it in years. The strings will probably snap the second I do.”
         “I really need to get back into it,” Hanamura-kun’s renewed enthusiasm is touching, and it’s nice seeing that while he no longer plays there’s one hobby where Tatsuya hasn’t lost all interest.

         “Uh. Is he all right?” Hanamura-kun asks, staring at Tatsuya, who has managed to fall asleep on one of the uncomfortable Junes chairs. Jun has yet to find an angle that doesn’t hurt, but he’s sitting elegantly anyway.
         Jun smiles reassuringly. “Tatsu-chan does this sometimes. Please pay him no mind. I’ll tell him what he missed later; please continue, Hanamura-kun.”
