Maihime Amano is a minor character and an exclusive Persona to Maya Amano in Persona 2: Eternal Punishment.

History

This entity and the legend associated with her is fabricated by Nyarlathotep and likely did not exist in the Persona continuity.

Maihime Amano is a beautiful princess knowledgeable in the art of magic, and lover of the prominent samurai Tatsunoshin Suou. She assisted in her beloved's plan to assassinate the feudal warlord Kiyotada Sumaru along with Junnosuke Kuroda, but Sumaru managed to kill her with a spear, causing the move to end in tragic failure.

Appearances

• Persona 2: Eternal Punishment: Moon Arcana; Ancestor Persona

Profile

If Maya obtains and spreads the rumor of the existence of Maihime Amano's mummy from Setsu Nishitani (the old lady in Araya Shrine), she will appear later on at Sumaru Castle 7F and can then be summoned as a Persona of the Moon Arcana in the Velvet Room without the need of Material Card. With the right moves, Junnosuke Kuroda, Maihime Amano, and Tatsunoshin Suou can perform the Fusion Spell Tenchu-Satsu, which deals huge Sword damage to one foe and instantly kills Gozen.

Even though Maihime Amano has only two skills, her first skill, Affectionate Prayer, is extremely valuable because it does double duty to heal the party in battle and be used in fusion for any type of stat boost (-kaja) spell which targets the whole party. Of the other two Personas with Affectionate Prayer, Izanami (level 51) requires Material Cards to be summoned, and Gyokukou Joutei is level 77 which is much higher than Maihime's 54.

Trivia

• According to the bogus legend, Maihime Amano was killed by a spear. This references Maya's death in Maya Okamura's hands through Nyarlathotep's manipulations (the final condition required for Nyarlathotep to destroy mankind through the Oracle of Maia and win) and is likely intended by the evil entity as a jab against Maya and Tatsuya's failure to stop him.
