How to start a Romance With Mitsuru

Mitsuru is one of the more frustrating love interests to romance since her requirements and wait period are quite outrageous compared to some of the other characters. Fortunately, if you have some patience, your efforts will be rewarded. The first requirement is to max out your Academics stat all the way to rank six, which is Genius.

In addition, you must wait until almost December to start the Empress social link with Mitsuru Kirijo finally. This is way longer than basically every other social link in the game. In fact, it is quite close to the end of the main story. This makes romancing her a bit of a tricky situation, but here are all the steps for how to romance Mitsuru in Persona 3 Reload:

  • Get your Academics to rank six by November 21 at the latest
  • Speak with Mitsuru on November 21 to start the social link
  • Visit her Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays during the daytime (also every day during finals week)
  • Pick the “that’s up to you” option during the rank seven to eight social link event
  • Say “I love you too” during the rank eight to rank nine event

Of course, if you want to romance Mitsuru, you must max out her social link. I recommend grabbing an Empress Persona every time you talk to her. Here are all of the answers you should pick for her various social link ranks to get the most affection points and romance her:

  • Rank 1: Any (no effect yet to unlock her social link)
  • Rank 2: Any (no differences)
  • Social Link 3: Pick option 2, option 2 again, options 1 or 2, and option 2 for the four choices
  • Rank 4: Pick option 2, option 1, and any for the third choice
  • Rank 5: Option 2, option 1, and option 2
  • Social Link 6: Option 1 or 2, any option for the second choice, option 2, and option 3
  • Rank 7: Pick option 1 for the single choice
  • Rank 8: Pick any, choose any again, pick option 1, choose option 2, and pick option 1
  • Social Link 9: Pick option 3 and say, “I love you.”
  • Rank 10: Pick “I’m fine with the back.”

Persona 3 Reload is available right now for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
