Void Quest

The Void Quest is a dungeon in Persona 4. The reality created within the Midnight Channel from Mitsuo Kubo's feelings, it resembles an 8-bit video game, complete with monotone sound effects. The entrance is similar to a game's title screen, and each floor is referred to as a chapter. The dungeon includes several easter eggs referencing the 8 and 16 bit JRPGs it is modeled after, including the original Shin Megami Tensei.

Upon seeing a high school student's image in the Midnight Channel, the Investigation Team went around Inaba to search for clues about the boy. Kanji suggested asking Dojima about it, but the detective refuses to share any information. By speaking with Adachi, however, he reveals that the police suspect had worked as a part-timer in a shop in the shopping district. The shop, Souzai Daigaku, then tells that the suspect is occasionally seen with a blond student. Finding the student, they finally identified the boy as Mitsuo Kubo.

Within the TV, Rise uses her Persona Himiko's power to detect his whereabouts. Pointing out the location, the Team stumbled upon a video game-like area. The dungeon appeared like an old-school video game, and as the team ascends further up, the speeches within were similar to how a player character levels up i.e. "Coolness increases by +8".

When the Team managed to reach Mitsuo, however, this was not the case, as Mitsuo faces his Shadow but is unable to get it to say anything. The Shadow mutters about its empty feelings and how it and Mitsuo are the same. Mitsuo refuses to accept this fact, and the Shadow transforms into a baby-like form. Even after creating a shell of itself - an 8-bit swordsman character - and battling in a pseudo-video game way (selecting attacks from the Shin Megami Tensei menu), the Shadow was no match for the Team. Mitsuo still refuses to accept the Shadow, causing it to disappear. The Team drags an exhausted Mitsuo out of the Void Quest to interrogate him later.
