Much like the popular Pokemon franchise, Persona places a large emphasis on gathering creatures, from the disgusting to the bizarre and even to the adorable, and then using them in battle against opponents. Persona 3 Reload brought many back their impressively expansive compendium for players to fill by finding them through Tartarus, or by fusing them in the Velvet Room.
Persona 3 Reload: Personas You Should Level Up As Soon As Possible
Those looking to get a head start in Persona 3 Reload should consider leveling these Personas to unlock their useful skills.
Each Persona comes with its unique design, history, and personality, with some being so undeniably adorable that players couldn't help but recruit or fuse them, and keep them for as long as possible. Players who like to keep the most adorable Personas by their side shouldn't miss out on the following examples.
1 Nekomata
An Adorable Cat Girl
- Acquired through Fusion
An early game Persona, Nekomata can be recruited by fusing Asparas with either Orpheus or Pixie, making her one of the easiest Personas to gain. She has some useful early-game skills such as Agi and Dia, and is one of the best Personas, aesthetically speaking.
As her name is indicative of, Nekomata appears as an adorable cat girl, complete with cat ears, a face mask that looks like there are whiskers on it, and a fluffy white jacket as though to mimic the appearance and feel of soft cat fur. This makes her one of the cutest Personas players can find throughout the entire game.
2 Hua Po
A Small, Winged Persona
- Acquired through Fusion
This small and charming Persona can only be acquired through fusion once the player has reached the corresponding level and has the necessary Personas to fuse her: Oberon and Rakshasa, or Principality and Zouchouten. Players also need the item Small Cheongsam to unlock the ability to fuse her, but she is well worth the effort.
Hua Po is not only a very handy Persona to have in rotation, but she is also simply adorable. A small sprite-like woman with wings and pigtails, Hua Po is one of the cutest-looking Personas players can unlock in Reload.
3 Neko Shogun
A Cat Dressed As A Warlord
- Acquired through Advanced Fusion
Shoguns were figures from Japanese history that were fierce militant dictators, appointed to their lofty positions by the Emperors themselves. One would expect them to look regal and battle-hardened to match their reputation, but not Neko Shogun.
Best Cats In Video Game History, Ranked
Whether it be as cute sidekicks or snarling, ferocious beasts, cats of all kinds have been an integral part of gaming for decades.
Instead, Neko Shogun is an adorable bipedal black cat dressed in Shogun garb, looking as though someone has dressed up their beloved family pet in a costume. But shadows should beware, because this cute kitty still has claws.
4 Jack-O'-Lantern
A Cute Halloween Mascot
- Acquired in the Arqa Block or through Fusion
One of the two Jack brothers in the series is Jack-O'-Lantern, who can be found in the Arqa block of Persona or gained by fusing Archangel with either Ara Mitama or Onmoraki. As one of the fire-based Personas, Jack-O'-Lantern is as valuable as they are cute.
Their witch garb and pumpkin face make them look like an adorable Halloween mascot and certainly endear them to the player. Not to mention the Theurgy ability they are a part of, which is equally charming as it is hilarious.
5 Pixie
A Shy Sprite With Beautiful Wings
Found in the lower levels of Tartarus or acquired by fusing the Personas Silky and Tam Lin, Pixie is one of the easiest Personas players will get and is valued for its innate healing skills. But, Pixie is also valued on an aesthetic level, as they are one of the cutest creatures in the whole game.
Most Iconic Video Game Fairies, Ranked
Cute, magical, mischievous, and sometimes evil, fairies have been a staple in video games for decades. These are some of the most recognizable.
As the name suggests, Pixie takes on the form of an adorable little sprite with a set of beautiful wings they use to hover in the air, assuming a shy stance with how their hands cup their face, which only makes Pixie all the more adorable. This is one Persona players will want to protect rather than use them as protection.
6 Alice
Sports A Blue Dress And Blonde Curls
- Acquired through Advanced Fusion
One of the strongest Personas in Persona 3 Reload is also one of the cutest: Alice. Belonging to the Death arcana, Alice can only be acquired through a special fusion that requires specific Personas, and the player must be level 68. This makes her one of the hardest Personas to recruit, but she is certainly worth the effort.
Based on the character from Lewis Carroll's eccentric novel, Alice assumes the form of a young and cutesy girl in a pretty blue dress with long blonde hair. Her more human appearance may not be as exciting as the more creature-like Personas, but there is no denying that Alice is simply adorable.
7 Jack Frost
The Perpetually Smiling Persona Is Hard Not To Love
- Acquired in the Thebel Block or through Fusion
Of course, the most adorable and loveable Persona not just in Reload but across the series, is Jack Frost. He is seen as the mascot for the game, appearing in every title and as merchandise inside and outside the games.
This adorable ice-themed snowman-esque Persona is a favorite among fans, with his appearance being as cute as it is iconic. The constant smile he wears on his face is infectious, as players can't help but smile whenever they see Jack Frost.
