"Persona 3" - Yukari Takeba Trivia Quiz

Answer: Wind

Io is resistant to Wind while being weak to Electric. Her name is never actually said out loud, so it's hard to say exactly how it's pronounced.

Answer: Summon her Persona

This scene comes before the player is shown anything to do with Personas whatsoever. As such, almost anyone playing the game for the first time would interpret this scene as Yukari aiming to take her own life with the gun. Of course, using an Evoker involves the user seemingly shooting themselves in the head with a gun. Even though Yukari may be fully aware she isn't about to actually kill herself, surely anybody would be nervous at the idea of aiming a gun at their head and pulling the trigger, even if they knew for certain they wouldn't be killed by it.

Answer: Pierce

Yukari, along with Aigis, cannot stumble due to her basic attack being a projectile. Unfortunately, Yukari's bow deals noticeably less damage than the rest of the team to compensate.

Answer: "Hug her"

On paper, it may seem as though Yukari reacts harshly towards the player for doing this. However: considering that the thugs she confronted had essentially implied that they were going to "do things" to her, actually making physical contact with someone in that situation right after it ended is going to go incredibly poorly for straightforward reasons. Fortunately, this particular Reverse Social Link is easy to fix, as this one uniquely only requires one time block spent to correct it, whereas most Reverse Social Links require multiple time blocks.

Answer: Magic

Despite not getting Mind Charge like Mitsuru does, Yukari does get Wind Amp along with Garudyne to deal very respectable damage. Sadly, this comes at the cost of Yukari being ridiculously fragile, dying in just two solid hits to virtually anything come the later stages of the game.

Answer: Ghosts

Specifically, Yukari claims to have 'phasmophobia'. This is poked and prodded at, as the likes of Junpei, Ryoji and even the player themselves can deliberately scare Yukari in some way that invokes this phobia of her's. In 2023, this would probably be viewed as being pretty messed up, but of course, this was made in 2006, which was a much different overall time.

Answer: Yukari wants to fight

The decision is between either confronting Nyx, "inevitably" losing and dying a horrible death, or allowing Ryoji to die so that SEES could lose their memories, and that the descent of Nyx and impending doom would be instant and peaceful. Yukari is the first to assert that having her memory wiped would be akin to 'running away' and this wants to honor her late father by continuing to fight the Dark Hour until the very end.

Answer: Yes

In possibly the most controversial, polarizing moment in the entire game, Yukari argues that nothing else should matter apart from the possibility of being able to bring back such a major member of their team, even if it meant undoing all of SEES' efforts in opposing The Fall. Given how uncharacteristic the entire argument is of Yukari to be making, this spurned an endlessly controversial series of debates surrounding a few things about her character and even the game's story writing as a whole. The general gist of it is critics arguing that Yukari only harbored this sentiment as a means of Altus using her to drive the plot in a very specific, hard lined direction rather than create it organically.

Answer: Mitsuru

Mitsuru takes Yukari's side, but for some fairly odd reasoning that also manages to strike a chord with fans. Mitsuru takes actions throughout the game and even speaks during the heated debate in ways that would make her seem entirely opposed to Yukari's line of thinking.

However, Mitsuru ultimately fights alongside Yukari during this skirmishing because of a perceived degree of loyalty Mitsuru felt was held between the two as a result of their bonding during "The Journey." As well, Mitsuru felt Yukari fighting by herself was "unfair."

Answer: Roommate

Aigis and Yukari have a mostly hostile relationship towards each other during "The Answer", so this served as a means of officially bridging the gap to close the story off on a good note.
