Welcome to TheGamer’s official 100% walkthrough! For those playing P3P as the female protagonist and hoping to unlock as many things as possible in their first play𓃲through of the game, our guide seeks to take you through P3P’s story day by time, time slot by time slot, in the name of getting as many things done on this run as possible.

RELATED: 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Persona 3 Portable: Beginner Tips

You’ll max out your stats, befriend all your social links, and do plenty of the usual ass-kicking you expect from a Persona title. Strap in for a long, emoti🏅onal journey as we take you through P3P!

Although we won't give away major plot points or entire conversations as we go along, this guide series will still contain major spoilers for Persona 3 Portable, by nature of completing a game to its fullest.

A few things to keep in mind, going into this walkthrough:

  • Our guides for P3P are a modified version of a translation for , which we've cleaned up, played through, re-worked, and optimized for the January 2023 re-release of Persona 3 Portable. If you've dug out your old PSP in the spirit of the game, you may find that your mileage with our walkthroughs vary.
  • Your social link progression along with this guide is contingent on you bringing a Persona of the matching arcana to each occasion on which you hang out with a social link. Outside of Ranks 1 and 10, as well as in regard to a handful of characters who have special social links, forgetting to bring a Persona of your social links' arcana might set your schedule back from ours in a small but meaningful way.
    • We'll keep track of which Personas you'll want to have in your stock and suggest ones for you as we go through the year, since our walkthroughs' point totals rely on you having a matching Persona.
  • If you're spending time with social links during the time period, we've written it in the guide as ([Arcana]: Rank #) to help keep track of what rank you'll reach during that scene. In the subsection of bullets below it, we'll detail what to say for each response of that scene to ensure you get the maximum points.
  • Gameplay for our walkthrough was done on Normal difficulty, so while we support you playing at the difficulty that feels most comfortable, you may find your progress through Tartarus or in boss battles differs from ours.
  • While the female protagonist is not forced to date any of her social links, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:unlike the male protagonist, we'd suggest romancing someone to collect the trophy/achievement for doing so, called "That Special Someone."
  • While one of the trophies required to 100% the game does require you to play through a second time as the other protagonist, our individual walkthroughs aim to get you as close to 100% completion as you can get in one walkthrough, with all social links, stats, Compendium entries, and more completed by the game's end date of 3/5. If you do start a new game with the other protagonist, you can do so as a NG+ to carry over your level, Compendium, money, and more for an easier second playthrough.
  • The number of music notes that appear as you do things like rank social links or level up a skill do not correspond with how many actual points you've earned for that action or response. What you see on screen may be different from what we've listed for this reason, but if you're following along with our guide, you'll be in time with our progress.
  • Save in different slots periodically in case of emergencies, missed dates, or any other unforeseen issues as you progress through P3P with us. The game gives you more than one save slot for that reason!
  • We'll finish each of these guides with a summary of each month at the end, a general overview of what your social links and social stats should look like when exiting the month. Double-check often that you're on track with our walkthrough, lest something not match up. Trust us from hiccups we encountered in writing these 100% guides - it's much easier to go back a few days in-game to redo something you missed than it is to go back entire months.

And with all that out of the way, let's get started, beginning in April if you've chosen the female protagonist!

Persona 3 Portable Female Protagonist - April Walkthrough

female protagonist select highlighed in persona 3 portable

While it's a bit more interactive than the games that came after it, April in a Persona game is designed to be a bit of a hand-holding experience as it eases you in.

Though newcomers to the series appreciate the in-depth introduction to concepts like Personas, the Velvet Room, shadows, and the like, veterans maꦇy find the🌠 introduction to be a little slow for the same reason.

April spends a lot of time setting up the story. Not only does it explain the basic premise of P3P and Persona on the whole, but it also introduces you to plenty of social links, the town, your school, SEES and its mission, and more.


4/6: Monday

Evening

  • Automatic


4/7: Tuesday

Morning

  • Interact with the bulletin board to find your name.
  • Go to the faculty office located down the hall at the bottom right of the main lobby screen, and speak to your teacher.

Evening

  • Go to the second floor of the dorms and buy one can of Mad Bull from the vending machines. You'll need it later for a social link.
  • Go to bed early.

4/21: Tuesday

After School

  • Automatic

Evening

  • Go into Tartarus for the first time
  • Choose your Velvet Room attendant for P3P by answering Igor's question of, "When you see this person, what do you see?"
    • To choose Elizabeth: Tell Igor "I think it's a woman."
    • To choose Theodore: Tell Igor "Is it a man?"

There's no difference in Velvet Room attendants other than whꦬich character fills the r📖ole, and both serve the same function.

It comes down to your preference. We went with Theodore for this playthrough, as Theodore is exclusive to the female protagonist.

  • Complete one floor of Tartarus, receiving tutorials on:
    • Basic Tartarus functionalities and features
    • Receiving and making outside communications while in Tartarus
    • Battle mechanics: skills versus attack, affinities, All-Out Attacks, tactics, etc.
    • Shuffle Time
    • Healing outside of battle
    • Splitting up the team inside Tartarus
  • Use the clock to save your game.

4/22: Wednesday

  • Stay awake in class. (+Academics)

The remainder of your map is available for exploration beginning after school. You can use it to fast travel between locations around Tatsumi Port Island and Iwatodai.

Take note, however, that some stores will remain closed until set dates.

After School

  • Automatic story with Akihiko and Junpei.
  • Fast travel to Paulownia Mall and go to the Police Station.
    • (It's labeled with kanji, but it's the shop between Be Blue V and the Velvet Room alleyway.)
  • Receive ¥5,000 and use it to buy new weapons and armor.
    • Whatever money you don't spend is yours to keep.
  • Explore the map if you'd like to check out the world of P3P and get a feel for Tatsumi Port Island.
  • Catch a movie by going to the Screen Shot theater at Port Island Station. (+Academics)
    • If you don't have money, you can instead return to Gekkoukan and choose to study at the library instead to still gain points toward your 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Academic social stat
      • The library can be found in the 1F Near Faculty Office hall. It's free to study here, and you'll occasionally gain extra boosts to your stat earnings.

Evening

  • You can now go out at night instead of being made to stick around at the dorm.
    • If you have the money: Go to the Arcade at the rightmost side of Paulownia Mall and play Quiz Game, which costs ¥3,000. (+Academics)
    • If you do not have money: Go to your bedroom and interact with your desk to instead study in your bedroom. (+Academics)

If you're playing through the game on a New Game + save file, this is the day when 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the Monad Depths become available for exploration. Since teammate levels don't carry over, this is a great way to grind in a NG+ save.

However, while it does carry over (beginning on 5/10), you won't have access to your Compendium this month, so ⛦you may face difficulty if you try to do this optional block of Tartarus earlඣy.


4/23: Thursday

After School

  • Automatic: spend time with Junpei. (Magician: Rank 1)
    • Choose any answers for this rank.

Evening

  • Go to bed early.

While there's plenty to do around Iwatodai, you have a big night of exploring Tartarus tomorrow, and you'll want to be in Great condition for this push.

If you need, since the mechanic didn't carry into later entries in the Persona series, we've got a 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Complete Guide to Conditions with all the info you'll need. Condition matters in P3P, so keep it in mind during your playthrough.

4/24: Friday

After School

  • If you have the money, grab a few Yawn-B-Gone (priced at ¥1,000 each) from the school store in the lobby. You can buy three per week, and they restock every Saturday.
  • You can also join a sports team beginning today.
    • You can choose between Tennis Team and Volleyball Team. We chose volleyball for our playthrough.
      • To find the clubs, fast travel to 1F Hall Near Clubs and go through the double doors at the end, reentering the building through the opposite set of double doors.
        • Volleyball is in the gymnasium, which you can find by interacting with the inner door on the right in this small hallway.
        • Tennis takes place out on the field, which is right through the red outer door in the center, with the diamonds.
    • No matter which club you choose, it begins the Chariot social link with Rio. (Chariot: Rank 1)
      • Choose any answers for this scene.

Evening

  • Go to Tartarus by speaking to Mitsuru at the dormitory lounge.
    • Tonight, you need to reach the barrier on 16F in order to stay on schedule.
      • This is a big endeavor, especially so early on when your team isn't leveled, but it's necessary to keep on schedule. We'll head back into Tartarus one more time at the start of next month to finish Thebel for good to wrap up some requests, but to optimize your time outside of Tartarus, you need to finish it tonight.
      • The Yawn-B-Gone we suggested buying will come in handy to cancel the effects if your team gets tired tonight.
      • If the team is strong enough, you can ask them to split up. Doing so will allow them to call out when they find the stairs, which will let you automatically climb to the next floor. If they're strong enough to hold their own, you can climb Tartarus quickly this way.
        • You cannot split the team on floors where you fight Guardians, so this tip only goes so far.
    • You have three mini-boss battles against Guardian Shadows before the end of the block.
    • Be sure to collect the briefcases around the floors, as you'll want to leave with several thousand yen to cover your time at the movies and arcade.
    • Since you won't have access to the Compendium yet, you'll need to keep a few Personas in your stock to earn extra bonus points with your social links.
      • Before you leave, be sure you have Personas of the Chariot, Magician, and Hierophant arcana.
        • Chariot: Ara Mitama (Lv. 6)
        • Magician: Nekomata (Lv. 5)
        • Hierphant: Omoikane (Lv. 7)
      • You primarily obtain new Personas through Shuffle Time, but if you're unable to find them or your team is getting tired, these Personas can also be fused in the Velvet Room by combining two or more Personas.
        • To fuse Ara Mitama: combine Angel (Lv. 4) and Pixie (Lv. 2)
        • To fuse Nekomata: combine Pixie (Lv. 2) and Apsaras (Lv. 3)
        • To fuse Omoikane: combine Nekomata (Lv. 5) and Angel (Lv. 4)
      • Once the Compendium unlocks on 5/10, you can then log your Personas in there, which will allow you to pay to withdraw the Persona again at a later date if you use it in fusion or release it to make room for a new Persona, so you don't have to keep going back into Tartarus to get them.
        • After registering a Persona in your Compendium, you have it logged for the rest of the game.
          • Beware that higher-level Personas do become more expensive, with the strongest costing hundreds of thousands of yen by the end game.
    • On 16F, not only is there a blockade stopping you from reaching the next section, but you'll also find a briefcase containing Old Document 01. You don't need it yet, but be sure to grab every Old Document throughout the game, as they'll come in handy later on.​
    • When you're ready to leave Tartarus, locate and use one of the teleporters to get back to the entrance.
      • You can save at the clock before leaving. Going back to the dorms after Tartarus will always advance time to the next day.

4/25: Saturday

After School

  • If you're Sick or Tired following your exploration of Tartarus, you can go to the Nurse's Office (located in the 1F Near Faculty Office hall) and sample some experimental medicine. (+Courage)
    • While it may not always improve your condition, you'll be rewarded with Courage just for trying the medicine. Doing so does not consume your time slot.
      • This means it's always worth it to at least try the nurse's medicine every time you're Sick or Tired until your Courage is maxed out.
  • Time to get the ball rolling on your Hierophant social link. This one requires a few steps to begin:
    • Visit Bookworms Used Book Store at the Iwatodai Strip Mall, and talk to the couple until they bring up a persimmon tree.
    • Go back to Gekkoukan High and fast travel to 1F Laboratory Hallway, then head back through the courtyard you took to get to your sports club meeting room.
    • Interact with the tree to the left of the path to receive Persimmon Leaf.
    • Bring the leaf back to the elderly couple at Bookworms and show it to them. (Hierophant: Rank 1)
      • Outside of being required to show Bunkichi the Leaf, you can choose any answer for this scene.

Evening

  • Play Quiz Game at the Arcade. (+Academics)

4/26: Sunday

  • Today is your first free Sunday in Persona 3 Portable. On Sundays or public holidays, you do not have to go to school. In fact, you actually can't - Gekkoukan is closed, and unless a social link calls to ask you to hang out, you can't hang out with your Gekkoukan social links.
    • Unless there's story happening to supersede it, you'll always have two free time slots on Sundays regardless.

Daytime

  • (Hierophant: Rank 2)
    • Choose: "I'm from Gekkoukan..."
    • Choose: "Thank you."
    • Choose either answer.

  • Go down the blue alleyway that leads you to the Velvet Room, and go in.
    • Your assistant will elaborate on their requests that they mentioned on the phone, and immediately allow you to take some.
