When Akira Kurusu stands up to a powerful man to save a woman from sexual assault, he ends up with a criminal record for his righteous act. Forced to leave his previous school, he relocates to Shibuya and enrolls at Shujin Academy. Ostracized by those around him, Akira is repeatedly told to keep his head down and survive the school year without causing any trouble. His start in Shibuya proves to be bizarre and full of problems. Akira discovers a mysterious app on his phone that cannot be removed, with no memory of installing it. While walking to school, he is caught in the rain together with Ryuuji Sakamoto, the infamous troublemaker of Shujin Academy. When the phone app activates on its own, the pair are whisked away to a strange realm teeming with demonic beings. Trapped and surrounded by these shadowy creatures, a hidden power stirs inside Akira, granting him the ability to defend himself. Equipped with a "Persona"—a physical embodiment of his inner self—Akira teams up with Ryuuji to uncover the secrets of this unknown world.
