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 will feature 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 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.
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, instead he seems to use his glasses as he removes them before summoning his Persona. 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.
