The Story: A Prisoner of Fate
The protagonist, a young student forced to transfer to a high school in Tokyo, finds himself embroiled in a supernatural conflict after a strange dream that warns him of impending doom. Branded a "prisoner of fate," he must undergo "rehabilitation" to avoid disaster.
Soon, he awakens to the power of Persona - the manifestation of his inner soul - and joins the Phantom Thieves of Hearts. This secret group enters the Metaverse, a surreal world created by human cognition, where they infiltrate Palaces (psychological dungeons built by corrupt individuals). By stealing their "treasure" - the core of their perverted desires - the Phantom Thieves force these villains to confess their crimes and change their ways.
