In this video, I explain the subtle and seemingly unexplainable charm of the Persona series silent protagonists. While most MegaTen games feature a silent protagonist, I will not be spending any time on any of the Shin Megami Tensei or Megami Tensei spinoff games. While P1, P2, P3, P4, and P5 all have silent protagonists, I won't be dwelling too much on Persona 1 or Persona 2 protagonists either, as many of the things I say only apply to the main characters of Persona 3, Persona 4, and Persona 5. This will also include FeMC, the Persona 3 Portable female protagonist. I will VERY briefly discuss the persona protagonists as they're interpreted in spinoffs, anime adaptations, etc. I mainly want to cover the dichotomy between Makoto Yuki, Kotone Shiomi, Yu Narukami, and Ren Amamiya as therein lies the value of these characters and why people may grow more attached to one main character over the rest. That's what defines a Persona main character. Whether you prefer Persona 3 Protagonist, Persona 4 Protagonist, Persona 5 Protagonist...
Persona's Silent Protagonists are Good, Actually.
