Profile[]
The party heads to the Alaya Cavern in order to stop the real Maki Sonomura from returning to the Sea of Souls prematurely, as well as to obtain the last Compact so that they can confront Pandora. Upon reaching the Alaya Shine, Philemon informs them that the protagonist and the Ideal Maki are the only ones who can enter the Cavern, as they are the ones the real Maki is calling for.
On B8F, the protagonist and Maki find the protagonist's "other self", who shows them visions of the past and judges him based on his actions throughout the game. The events the "other self" shows are:
- Whether or not the protagonist attempted to save the Nurse in the Mikage Hospital.
- Whether the protagonist attempted to stop the DEVA System to save Doctor Nicholai or overloaded it in an attempt to kill Kandori.
- Whether the protagonist responded to the Harem Queen's question in Kama Palace truthfully.
- Whether the protagonist chose to fight Hariti in the Haunted Mansion.
- How the protagonist answered Kandori's question in Deva Yuga.
- How the protagonist answered Maki's questions in the Inner Lost Forest.
Depending on the choices chosen during these events earlier in the game, the protagonist's "other self" will reward him with the Totems needed to fuse the party's Ultimate Personas.
At the end of the dungeon, the protagonist and the Ideal Maki reach the Sea of Souls, where they find the real Maki waiting for them.
