Yasogami High School



Yasogami High School (八十神高等学校, Yasogami Kōtōgakkō) is one of the main settings of Persona 4. It is located within the rural town of Inaba.

Profile
Yasogami High is split between two buildings; the Classroom Building and the Practice Building. The Classroom Building has three floors, with each floor corresponding to the school year; first years on the first floor, second years on the second, and so on. The Practice Building has two floors, and each floor house rooms for different school clubs and activities.

In Persona 4 Arena, a replica of the school was recreated for the P-1 Grand Prix. The school is in chaos due to the tournament taking place and the student council president attempts to control the situation, sometimes asking for help from the Investigation Team.

In Persona 4 Arena Ultimax, when Inaba is covered in a mysterious red fog, Yasogami High seemingly takes on the shape of Tartarus, the primary dungeon of Persona 3.
