CHARACTER INFORMATION
Character Name: Yukiko Amagi
Age: 17
Canon: Persona 4 Arena
Canon Point: End of her storyline
Character Information: Wiki Link!
Personality:
When the audience first notices Yukiko Amagi, she had an air around her that screamed ‘elegance and class’. Of course training to run her family’s business, an inn and hot springs that is quite successful will do that to someone. But when you hear them for the first time, one would think Yukiko as a snob and not really care about anything else, right? Not even close on that one! Yukiko may be quiet and introverted from the beginning but as the audience watches her in both the game and anime, we notice that she is a determined young woman trying to figure out what to do with her life on her own terms.
In the beginning, we notice that Yukiko is a quiet young woman who is incredibly smart (we see her discuss questions on a test during the midterms in the game) and very popular with both genders at her school. In fact, there is something called the ‘Amagi Challenge’ in which boys ask Yukiko out and see if she says yes. Spoiler alert: she turns them all down. In all honesty, Yukiko doesn’t feel right when people talk about her looks; it makes her feel uncomfortable. During this time, she really opened up to one other person: her best friend Chie. They have been normally seen together throughout the game and have been good friends for a long time. When they were children, Chie tried to make her smile after she ran away from home with a dog because her family couldn’t take it in. The story has a good ending with Yukiko and Chie becoming very good friends and the other girl able to take in the dog.
As much as we notice Yukiko taking care of the family business and takes over when her mother is unable to, the audience believes that this is what she wants to do in life. We thought at one point that Yukiko had set goals for her life and had a plan together; it was the opposite. When she confronts her shadow, who says that she doesn’t want to work at the inn any longer and pines for her ‘Prince Charming’ to come and rescue her from her life in Inaba, she denies it and naturally, it pisses the shadow off. She then comes to realize that the shadow is speaking the truth and feels like her life is being decided for her. So Yukiko does feel uncertainty of what she wants to do in the future at this point. She’s not perfect despite appearances.
Once the protagonist and the rest of the Investigation Team get to know her, they learn that Yukiko is actually livelier. One thing they notice is her…bizarre taste in humor. As in horrible. She will laugh like a hyena when someone tells a bad joke or if someone puts on Teddie’s ‘special glasses’ which look like a gag joke with its big nose, mustache, and swirly eyed glasses. While everyone else hates them, she finds them hilarious. But it doesn’t happen all the time; when Teddie tries to joke with her, she responds (paraphrasing a bit here)asking if she was supposed to laugh at it. She also shows a competitive side when the team decides to have an omelet making contest with Nakano as the judge, even telling Rise: “I’ll cut you down in one stroke.” She is even seen attempting to cook when she spends time with the protagonist during her Social Link events. Needless to say that she really needs to work on it. Three words: MYSTERY FOOD X.
Yukiko is seen as one of the more accepting people among the Investigation Team. After being rescued, she warms up to Teddie despite him being…well, a bear and Labrys who is a robot just to name a few examples. She’s a kind person who believes in the best of everyone with few exceptions such as Tohru Adachi and a group of reporters who wanted to destroy the good image of her home. She is also seen as a patient person and tries to remain calm, not raising her voice or trying to keep the others level headed such as when the protagonist had the choice to throw Namatame into the TV or not.
Despite being a quiet woman, Yukiko has some major strong will and determination. She is determined to make her own way in the world and has a strong will as seen while spending time with the protagonist. She expresses that she wishes to leave Inaba and make a career in interior design. At one point, she is shown discussing about books involving the subject. However, when a tabloid crew comes to town and wants to do a story about the inn (mind you, it’s a very crippling one due to the fact that the first murder victim in the series Mayumi Yamano stayed there before she was killed), she tells them off and makes them leave. Afterwards, she tells the protagonist that she wants to stay at the inn but because of her own free will and the fact that she still loves the place. Telling off the reporter made her realize how much she cared for the establishment and finally gave her the answers she was looking for during the series. After her rescue from the TV World, she doesn’t try to revert back to her normal life but chooses to join the team in solving the case. She refuses to give up when things are at its bleakest or say ‘I cannot do this’ but it doesn’t happen all the time. A good example is during Arena when she faces something possessing Labrys and fights it alone. Her desire to protect her friends triumphs over her fear of being hurt. She has the upmost faith in her friends to do the right thing even when hope seems to be at its dimmest.
To summarize: Yukiko is seen at first as a woman of class and somewhat untouchable. She seemed to be the quiet type that refused any boy who would ask her out and had an idea what she wanted to do after graduation. Once certain events occurred, the audience sees her as a lively girl with bad tastes in cooking and humor but with a strong and kind heart. She is also determined to do things because she feels in her heart that it’s good for her and not because everyone else expects it. She once thought she was trapped in a cage by believing her family and the inn workers wanted her to stay because she is the next heir to the business but learned that everyone knew her desire to leave and was alright with her making her own choices.
5-10 Key Character Traits:
Compassionate, Determined, semi-intelligent (book smart not street smart), odd humor, fear of being 'trapped', protective, accepting, sucks at cooking, brave, insecure
Would you prefer a monster that FITS your character’s personality, CONFLICTS with it, or EITHER? I would try with fitting her personality.
Opt-Outs: kelpie, troll, goblin, gargoyle, wendigo
Roleplay Sample:
Yu no sucking out her soul ok?
Gimmie a boost Kanji!
