baller theory unfortunately instead of a brain i have persona knowledge


In ''Persona 5'', Joker gains the fusion effects of bonding with Sae long before meeting her. In her case, the bond comes not through knowing her, but making the choices that push the timeline where she befriends him towards actuality.\\

* Sae's Confidant doesn't actually provide Arcana Burst EXP for Judgement Personas until ''after'' November 20. Of course, it still appears in the menu for the player; make of that whatever you like.

Deleted pointless criticism.


We have only ever seen red eyed shadows from characters that already have Personae, in particular the characters from Innocent Sin, as well as [[spoiler: Metis, who is Aegis' discarded emotions]]. These are characters have have the persona ability, and the ability to change personae, but still have personal problems, so only part of their inner self fights along side them, while the remaining part forms an incomplete shadow. Shadow Maya and the Eternal Punishment shadows are not included, as they are [[spoiler:direct manifestations of Nyarlathotep.]]

This also explains why Arcana feel so drawn toward Wild Cards. In a sense, the Wild Card already has maxed bonds with them, it's just that the timeline in which that happens may or may not come to pass. The Arcana sense that possibility on some level, like how the ''Persona 3'' protagonists sensed their connection despite being from alternate universes.



** Or it could just be another blank slate, because it being [[spoiler:Goro]] would be stupid.
