Well, hey there, y’all! Let’s gab a bit about this here “Persona 3 Reload,” alright? Folks keep askin’ me, “When do them youngsters join up with ya?” So, I figured, let’s lay it all out, plain and simple, like how we used to spread manure on the fields – no fuss, no muss.

Now, this game, “Persona 3 Reload,” they say it’s comin’ out on February 2, 2024. Fancy thing, playin’ it on them PlayStations and Xboxes and even that Steam thingamajig on the computer. Them young’uns, always with their newfangled contraptions. Heard tell it takes about 64 hours to finish the main story. Sixty-four hours! Back in my day, we worked 64 hours a week just to put food on the table, and we didn’t have no fancy games to show for it.

But anyways, back to them party members. You start off with a few, of course, but the others, they kinda trickle in like molasses in January.

First up, we got Yukari. She’s with ya from the get-go, bless her heart. She ain’t the strongest, but she’s got spirit, that one. Reminds me of my old hen, always peckin’ away, never givin’ up. Yukari is your first party member in Persona 3 Reload. She’s been with you since day one when you transferred to Gekkoukan High School and got attacked by shadows.

• Yukari Takeba: Joins right at the start. A real firecracker, that girl.

Then there’s this fella, Akihiko. Tough as nails, he is. But he gets himself hurt early on. Has to sit out for a spell, you know, like when the mule kicks ya and you gotta rest up a bit. He comes back around after a few days after that first big shadow fight they call a “Full Moon boss”. Folks say he joins up officially on May 23rd. So, you gotta wait a bit for him, be patient like waitin’ for the crops to grow.

• Akihiko Sanada: This tough guy joins up on May 23rd after he gets over his injuries.

Now, Fuuka and Mitsuru, them two are a pair, I tell ya. They both join around the same time, middle of June. June 13th, to be exact. Fuuka, she gets rescued earlier, but it takes her a few days to get her bearings, like a calf gettin’ its legs under it. And Mitsuru, well, she’s a bit of a fancy pants, but she’s got brains, that one. Reminds me of the school marm, always knowin’ more than the rest of us. They say Fuuka was saved a few days before, on June 8th but it took a few days for her to officially come aboard, and Mitsuru joins up with her, right there on June 13th. It seems Fuuka becomes the navigator of the team.

• Fuuka Yamagishi: Even though she was rescued on June 8th, it took her until June 13th to be part of the team. She’s the brains of the operation, kinda like the one who tells everyone what to do.
• Mitsuru Kirijo: Joins up on the same day as Fuuka, June 13th. She is very intelligent and comes from a wealthy family.

So, there you have it. Yukari right off the bat, Akihiko in May, and Fuuka and Mitsuru in June. Not too hard to remember, is it? It ain’t rocket science, that’s for sure. Just like plantin’ seeds, gotta know when to put ’em in the ground and when to expect ’em to sprout.

This “Persona 3 Reload” thing, it seems like a long haul, they say near 100 hours if you want to see and do every little thing. That’s a lot of sittin’ around if you ask me. But I guess them young’uns got nothin’ better to do these days. Back in my day, we had chores and work and… well, never you mind about that. Point is, those are the dates them party members join up. Don’t go losin’ track now, ya hear?

Now, go on and enjoy your game, or whatever it is you do with your time. Just remember what I told ya, and you’ll be set. And don’t forget to eat your vegetables! That’s the real secret to a long and happy life, not all this fancy game playin’. But what do I know? I’m just an old woman rambling on.

So remember to be patient. Good things come to those who wait, just like a good harvest. And these party members in Persona 3 Reload, they’re worth waitin’ for, believe you me. They’re gonna help you fight those shadows and save the world, or whatever it is you young’uns are doin’ these days.

Anyway, I hope this helps you out and sets you on the right path. Don’t forget what I told you, and you’ll be just fine. Now, I gotta go. I’ve got chores to do and mouths to feed. You young folks have it easy these days, with your fancy games and your… well, I’m goin’ on again. Just remember those dates, alright? Good luck!
