The stage is Ayanagi City, a city near the Japan Sea. It is a futuristic city that was built to carry out the recovery from the calamity caused by the "Apathy Syndrome" ten years previous. High school student Shin Kanzato with his little brother Jun, meet with their elder brother RyΕ, who is the chief of the Ayanagi City Police, again after ten years. At that time, a series of strange incidents happen in Ayanagi City such as the crew of a submarine that suddenly disappears while in their submarine, or a spiritless symptom which disturbs the world after ten years, or the case of the inside out corpse where a student took on a cruel appearance. RyΕ tracks down the organization behind the string of incidents, and having become involved in the incidents, Shin awakens the "Persona".
A really beautifully animated series with an enjoyable, if a little slow, plot. This is probably due to the fact that it is aimed at a wide audience, so would be perfect for pre-teens. Definitely something to watch on rainy afternoons as opposed to mindless rom coms, as it gives some brain stimulation, but not so much that you have to battle through whole minutes worth of convoluted dialogue in order to understand the situation.
