Naoki KonishiSocial Link
Naoki Konishi Winter uniform

This article covers information about the Hanged Man Social Link, Naoki Konishi, including events featured in Persona 4 and Persona 4 Golden.

The protagonist can start Naoki's Social Link as early as June 15th/June 20th, first meeting Naoki on June 7th/June 8th during a mandatory storyline event after Kinshiro Morooka signs him up for the Student Health Association. Afterward, the protagonist must speak to Naoki three more times on the first floor of Yasogami High to formally establish the Social Link, though this requires rank three Understanding (Generous).

After establishing the Social Link, he can be found in front of his family's liquor store in the Shopping District. His Social Link cannot be progressed on days off from school.

Naoki gives the protagonist a Junes Receipt when the Social Link is maxed, which enables the fusion of Attis.
