Follower ranks in Metaphor: ReFantazio gives players the ability to hang out with various characters and see their story, though these are completely optional. Throughout the main story, the main cast will continue to interact, and sometimes you'll get the chance to spend time with one party member of your choice.
These events are fairly rare though the choice of who to spend time with goes much deeper than just seeing a nice character moment. Your choice will also see the player getting a rare item, that will be different depending on who you hang out with; here's each potential option for 9/6.
Metaphor: ReFantazio - 6 Ways The Follower System Is Different Than Persona 5’s Confidants
Are Followers exactly like Confidants? Here's how Metaphor: ReFantazio changes things up with its follower system compared to Persona 5.
All Rewards For 9/6 In Metaphor: ReFantazio
Unlike the rewards on 8/16, the potential rewards for 9/6 will be a weapon for one Archetype. Despite there being many different rewards, each weapon's stats will be mostly the same, while also having the same bonus effect.
- Attack - 320
- Effect: Small MP recovery every turn in battle.
The only major difference for each weapon aside from the Archetypes that can use it and the hit chances. Each possible weapon and their hit chance are given by the followers below.

The differences in hit chance at that level will rarely have a noticeable difference, so it's best to make your choice based on which party member needs a new weapon most and what Archetype they use. The MP recovery each turn does stack with other, similar effects, and is best when applied to a mage or support class that will tend to go through much more MP than usual.

Who Should You Choose On 9/6 In Metaphor: ReFantazio
Overall, no one weapon stands out above another. No matter who you pick, you can also earn MAG by choosing dialogue options that your companion likes most, though this is across the board and shouldn't influence your decision. It's also helpful to not save over the profile before this decision, as there is no way to see these scenes in the same playthrough, and each does have a heartfelt moment between the protagonist and each of his companions. Even though there are other weapons in this section of the game with better stats, the weapon given at this point should be used for its effect for many hours to come.
