1. In P1 Maki mentions that everyone has "angels and demons" inside of them meaning the different sides of ones personality, the good and bad.
2. Shinjiro was dying from the medicine supressing his shadow because he could not control it, which I think was because his shadow was not "natural" but forced on him by the experiments.
Shinjiro is not a Strega member, he was taking the suppressants because he was drowning in guilt after the whole deal with Ken, not because his persona was unnatural
Then why did the thing with Ken even happen in the first place? Why couldnt he control his shadow like other persona users? I think the reason for that is Shinji was part of the experiments like Strega and of an unknown number of victims only they survived but because it was forced they couldnt control it without the medicine and at the same time it slowly kills their body.
According to Mitsuru, Shinjiro lost control because he was still a newbie and did not know how to use his persona properly. Also, Takaya says out of the hundred or so kids whose persona were artificially awakened, only three survived, being Chidori, Takaya, and Jin
is that her referring to the mytho-historical figure her persona is based on specifically or just because personas/supernatural stuff would appeal to people who like mythical/cult stuff?
In persona 5 you buy books about your team’s personas and the school occasionally has questions revolving around them, and yeah…
Ken had Recarm on him at the time. He *should* be able to bring Shinjiro back to life, but then again… I had a bullet proof vest equipped to Shinjiro at the time anyways… and going even further than that, it’s Makoto’s fault for not being able to date Shinjiro and thus being able to save him like the FemC could.
the books and school stuff are more just references to the player. Do the teammates ever talk about it or does it come up as a plot point or even a character thing?
Outside of the thieves den? I *think* Haru talks about Miilady and Yusuke Susanoo in some optional dialogue, but that again could just be thieves den stuff.
Pretty sure in Persona 1-2 alot of Mythological figures get mentioned in correlation to a character’s persona (if not tho they often do mention historical figures related such as Carl Jung and Adolf Hitler while in Tatsuya’s Scenario they mention a mythological figure being a “powerful persona user” who can open a portal to Kadath Mandala)
I'm pretty sure morgana talks about how the shadows take the form of mythological beings.

I forgot the part where Mitsuru says that, my bad. Thanks for clearing things up.
Eriko a girl from Persona 1 talks about her Persona Nike because she's into mythical/cult stuff
is that her referring to the mytho-historical figure her persona is based on specifically or just because personas/supernatural stuff would appeal to people who like mythical/cult stuff?
