Persona -trinity soul- (ペルソナ トリニティ・ソウル, Perusona Toriniti Sōru) is a Japanese anime TV series. It is the sequel to the PlayStation 2 game Persona 3, taking place ten years after its events.[1] Produced by Aniplex and animated by its A-1 Pictures animation studio, the series premiered in Japan on MBS, Tokyo MX and Animax from January 2008. It also features music by Taku Iwasaki.

Story

Takes place 10 years after the end of Persona 3. Set in Ayanagi City, a city located near the Sea of Japan, its police force begins to investigate several cases involving a mysterious illness called the Apathy Syndrome.

In the midst of the crisis, two brothers named Shin and Jun Kanzato move back to Ayanagi to see their elder brother Ryō, who is now the Superintendent of the Ayanagi City Police. It had been 10 years since the three siblings had last met with each other.

Characters

Shin Kanzato (神郷 慎, Kanzato Shin)
Voiced by: Nobuhiko Okamoto
Seventeen-year-old protagonist. He is a second-year student at Naginomori Gakuen High School. He always carries a pendant with the shape of a feather which is a memento of his father. He also has an interest in art, having several models and is frequently seen sketching. Strangely, his artworks always resemble Personas and in one case, Igor. In the first episode, he awakens his own Persona. One of the enigmatic Outsiders (rogue Persona users) also commented that Shin's Persona is of "Special A-Level".
Ryō Kanzato (神郷 諒, Kanzato Ryō)
Voiced by: Takehito Koyasu
Shin's brother, eldest of the three at twenty-eight. His personality is stoic to the point of being cold, even towards his younger brothers. He entered the police in order to investigate the strange incidents, becoming the youngest superintendent in history. In the first episode he is revealed to have a "Persona" of his own, though he doesn't use an Evoker like the main characters did in Persona 3. A bottle of pills was briefly shown on his desk, perhaps similar to the suppressant drugs Strega used.
Jun Kanzato (神郷 洵, Kanzato Jun)
Voiced by: Miyuki Sawashiro
The youngest of the Kanzato brothers, and a third-year student at Naginomori Gakuen Middle School. He began to lose the will to live after an incident that happened at the time their parents disappeared eight years ago. He had a twin sister, Yuki, whose dress he keeps. Oddly, Ryō overheard Jun seemingly speaking to a girl, presumably Yuki. This might indicate a spiritual body sharing, or multiple-personality disorder. During his visit to the beach, the water's reflection was showing his twin sister summoning her persona but not Jun.
Eiko Nikaido (二階堂映子, Nikaido Eiko)
Voiced by: Sanae Kobayashi
A family friend of the Kanzato siblings. In the third episode, she visited Jun at Ryō's house and went to pick up Shin at the Ayanagi City hospital.
Megumi Kayano (茅野めぐみ, Kayano Megumi)
Voiced by: Kana Asumi
A classmate of Shin's, though he actually saw her at a restaurant arguing with someone the night before he started school.
Kanaru Morimoto (守本叶鳴, Morimoto Kanaru)
Voiced by: Mai Nakahara
A somewhat timid girl who is acquainted with Shin, Megumi, and Takurō. She asks Takurō to do a Shadow Extraction on her, which seems to be a forced invoking of a Persona to create a euphoria similar to taking a drug.
Takurō Sakakiba (榊葉拓朗, Sakakiba Takurō)
Voiced by: Hideki Tasaka
A classmate of Shin's who he becomes acquainted with on the first day. He is an easy-going individual and sports a distinct afro. Surprisingly, he has a Persona which he displays. He has also had a dream with Igor in it much like Shin.
Yūji Kimoto (紀本祐史, Kimoto Yūji)
Voiced by: Nobuo Tobita
A member of the "Outsiders," a group of Persona-users who seem to use their special abilities to steal other people's Personas. He seems to be the most mentally unbalanced of the Outsiders and is often shown taking some kind of drug.
Tōma Shikura (紫倉統馬, Shikura Tōma)
Voiced by: Daisuke Namikawa
A member of the Outsiders. Tōma seems to be a cool and collected individual, but in the third episode he shows aggressive tendencies. It appears he has been killed by Ryō.
Sōtarō Senō (瀬能壮太郎, Senō Sōtarō)
Voiced by: Motoki Takagi
Another member of the Outsiders. Shōtarō attempted to fight Shin, but he ended up gravely injured after Shin's Persona countered his.
Saki Tachibana (橘花沙季, Tachibana Saki)
Voiced by: Mayumi Sako
Another member of the Outsiders. Saki appears calm and quiet, and she moves quickly while fighting.
