Profile
Persona 3
The Kirijo Group was originally a part of the Nanjo Group, but later separated from them. Despite this, the Kirijo Group works closely with the Nanjo Group and has a business motto of "Two in Harmony Surpasses One in Perfection". The Kirijo Group did a number of experiments dealing with Shadows, which eventually causes a huge explosion which lead to the creation of Tartarus and the Dark Hour. A newer Gekkoukan High School was built on top of this site. The Kirijo Group maintains control over the school, and a statue bearing their motto is located in the lobby of the school.
The Kirijo Group did a considerable amount of research involving Shadows. They created Evokers to aid with the summoning of a Persona, and they created a series of Anti-Shadow Weapons.
