Character Information
Character Name: Fuuka Yamagishi
Canon: Persona 4 Arena (Aigis Route)
Canon Point: Post Game
History: Wiki!
Personality:

When being compared to most of her friends, Fuuka doesn't have anything that stands out about her. After all, what could be said about a young high school girl who disagreed with parents? Isn't that normal for most teenagers? While this might make her submissive to some, that would soon change.

On the surface, one would expect Fuuka to be a doormat. The thing that stood out about her early on was how she was being constantly bullied. While we may not know the extent, Fuuka never took any real action against those who had harmed her and just simply took it as it was. Later on, we also found out that her parents wanted her to become a doctor despite her wishes. It was what they wanted and she had to become one for their own sake. She was trying to meet her parents and people's expectations.

However, that wasn't all to her. Through the canon, it has been proven Fuuka is one of the most calmest members of the group to the point where it rivals the male MC. This was the same person who managed to walk ten hours into the Tartarus without getting caught and not panic. This was also the same person who managed to use her evoker with ease compared to everyone else when they first had it. Lastly, she also had no issue with experiencing shadows on a daily basis. In fact, the only two times she broke away from that calm nature was when Ken was lost and when Junpei was complimenting her.

It was also because of her calm nature that she often thought about her choices before she acted. An example would be when she decided to join SEES. While she wanted to move out of the house badly, it was clear that she had thought about her decision despite how obvious the answer was. It was because of placid nature, she played support. If her comrades were in trouble, she would try to suggest what would best for them in battle instead of quickly panicking. However, the most obvious example would be in The Answer arc. During that arc, when the group was deciding if they should go back to bring the male MC back or to move on without him, Fuuka was the only one who did not make anything definite. Instead, she said that she refused to fight any of her friends and wanted to stay neutral. Of course, after listening to everyone's stories, she finally went with Aigis simply because “It was the one I agree with the most.” It turns out, it was the right choice after all.

However, despite how peaceful Fuuka can be, she is surprisingly stubborn she wants to be. Once she has a goal in mind, she won't stop until she got it. When she told the male MC that she would focus her attention to technology, Fuuka was determined to ignore her parents wishes. If she wanted to go into the field of technology, when why couldn't she? Some more examples would be when Mitsuru asked her to look into some information about her company and when Fuuka restored a CD for Yukari. It is a bit difficult to hack and dig through information but she knew that she could do it if she tried. It is not something everyone can do and yet she was stubborn enough to break through it. Since she was so determined, she finally broke away from her parents wishes and went into computer engineering two year later.

Another that makes Fuuka stand out is how quickly she is to forgive people. The most blatant example was how she befriended her former bully, Natsuki. Even when other people questioned her intentions, Fuuka didn't really seem to care. As long as she was able to spend time with her, then that was all that mattered. The reason why this was brought up was because of her friendship with Natsuki that made her into someone more confident. While the news of her best friend moving far away did make Fuuka sad, she also realized that it doesn't mean it was the end. All it meant was how precious her friend was to her and how she wished she stayed connected. It was then that she hoped that she could stay friends with everyone whom she met and how it would never end. The resolve transformed her Persona from Lucia to Juno. On top of that, during the events of Persona 4 Arena, she did not blame Labrys for what she has done. Instead, all Fuuka mentioned was how lucky she was to have friends who cared about her.

Even though Fuuka changes throughout her canon, her character development made her into who she is today. From the beginning, she mentioned that she said she was find living in the dorms because it meant she could stay away from her parents. It meant that she could finally live the life she wanted and not live how they planned for her. Besides, she was gifted with a Persona that no other could use . For the first time in her life, she was needed. She might not have had a big impact in the canon but her time with her friends had shown her that she didn't need to live the life others wanted. She made a brief mention to Mitsuru about how she didn't seem to mind that she doing something questionable, if it meant that she could do something for them, it should be fine. She is becoming more confident in herself instead of having people judging her.

As a side note, Fuuka hasn't changed much after two years but it is clear that she is much more confident than her former self. An example would be how Fuuka disagreed with Mitsuru about joining the Shadow Operatives so quickly. In the past, she would not be so vocal. Instead, Fuuka has become more assertive with herself in what she wants. While she might disagree with her leader, it is also because Fuuka doesn't want to jump to conclusions so easily. After the events of The Answer, she would much rather get as much information as she can before making a reasonable answer. This might seem like she is still passive to others but she is still trying to make the right decisions for herself this time around.

Abilities, Strengths and Weaknesses:

Abilities

In Persona 3, there are people who have the 'Potential'. It means that they possess the potential to summon a Persona, beings that are like guardian figures to fight against beings called shadows. In this group called SEES, there are many people who are able to summon Personas but Fuuka's a special one. Juno, her Persona, doesn't fight in combat, it provides support. Due to this, Fuuka can tell what the strength and weaknesses of an enemy. Fuuka can also sense life so she can tell where someone is depending on their location. Most of her abilities range from simply telling what the enemy is strong against to healing with each passing floor.

On top of that, since Juno is an analytical persona, this also extends to breaking through illusions and spell as well. Another one of her abilities with Juno is that she can use Oracle. It is random ability that has many features. It can either heal all your party's HP, heals all SP, fully heals both of them, cures any status ailments, or...it can reduce all HP and SP to 1.

Outside of her Persona, Fuuka is an excellent hacker. This was proven when she was able to hack into the Kirijo group with ease as soon as Mitsuru gave her a password. On top of that, she has also proven to be good with technology as well. For example, she was able to recover deleted scenes when Yukari asked if she could look over a CD and see if anything could be done with it. She was also able to built some headphones for the protagonist out of mere scrapes of metal too.

Prose Log Sample:

Fuuka never had been the type to ask a lot of others. When her friends asked for something, she wanted to pay them back in double. She thought it was the least she could do for them after what happened two years ago. However, the problem now turned into when she couldn't do what they wanted out of her.

As Fuuka sat in the room with Labrys, she couldn't help but frown to herself. While she was trying to keep herself occupied by looking up numbers, her mind drifted toward somewhere else.

"Is something the matter? You don't look good." The girl next to her asked with a worried look.

"No, I'm fine, I'm just tired." She didn't want to lie but it would be for the better at the moment. The last thing she wanted to do was to disagree with the new found robot. Besides, even if she were to argue, what could she do? She had made up her mind just like she did. If Labrys wanted to join the Shadow Operatives to help her new friends, Fuuka had no right to change her mind. However, she had different ideas. Unlike Labrys, Fuuka had no real intention of joining so quickly.

As Fuuka skimmed through the list on her computer, she was trying hard not to make a mistake.

It was funny, she thought to herself, after the events of two years ago, she was careful about making decisions so quickly. Of course, this does make her worried about something else.

"I want to help my friends!"

Was she being selfish? She wasn't but she didn't want to make the same mistake she made all those years ago. At the same time, would it be considered mean of her to disagree with Mitsuru? Now that she was in a university, she didn't have a lot of free time. How could she manage school work and the Shadow Operatives at the same time? It was a lot to ask for...

She continued to scrolled through the numbers on her computer. They were almost done, they needed to find one more number and they were set.

Fuuka had to think a lot about the future. It wasn't only for her own sake, she didn't want to disappoint him either. He gave up his life just so his friends could live. The least she could do was live life to her fullest without any regrets as well. She couldn't do much but if this was the closest to making him happy, then...

"I think I found Yosuke's number!" Her thoughts were cut short as Labrys shouted to her. "Who would have thought that his number would be so difficult to find? But I'll let Mitsuru know we find them!"

As Labrys left the room, Fuuka smiled to herself. Even if she hadn't made a choice right away, at least she could help out just a little.
