How would a female Minato (from persona) be? Do you think she will be recieved well?

Sorry for the wait.

I had a lot of thoughts on self insert protagonists and self inserts to work through first. It got long, but I hope you enjoy!

Most Persona protagonists, and Megaten protagonists in general, are harder to map out in personality, because of the self insert nature of them. You can infer things about their personality based on the options and dialogue choices given to you, and the comments other people make about them, but with the choice in the players hands, each variant is going to be different.

You can play the game working to max all the social links, some, or even none, while also boosting your social stats and exploring Tartarus. You can beat the game while characterizing the protagonist as someone who does nothing with their their time but karaoke and exploring Tartarus, and is grouchily dragged to the occasional social event whereupon they act like an asshole. Regardless of how you play the game and spend their year, they are given an opportunity to save the world. They still choose at the beginning of the game to use the evoker when in danger.

No player can take that away from them.

They also still have their backstory.

Their parents died in a fight between Aigis and Ryouji, and an aspect of death was sealed within them. From there they lived with relatives until they were sent to high school. How happy they were with their relatives is up to headcanon, but considering there is no sign of contact to or from them within the game, I will assume that the connection between them is one based on obligation not affection.

Additionally, with portable we do have a female protagonist for Persona 3, FemC. Kotone. Minako. Hamuko. Whichever name for her you prefer, she is the P3 female protagonist, and should not be ignored when considering this question. After all, while they have differences in their personalities, they share the same backstory. I would say, they handled their grief differently, and part of that may be from differences in gender and socialization.

They have different personalities too. MC/Minito has a quieter nature, where FemC seems to be more comfortable in social situations. Of course, they both seem to do their best socializing during one on one conversations for social links, a part of which is the nature of a self insert, their not exactly going to be starting the latest rumor, and you the player are left to imagine what they would be talking about.

Still, for them to work in a game like Persona, they can't be all left to the player like a Sim. No. They are a wildcard, someone who is able to switch their social mask to match the situation or person they are interacting with. Their Persona.

Let's backstep a bit to the older games where party members could all summon more than one Persona. Back then, characters had affinities for different types of Masks, based on what they were comfortable showing the world. They could use most types of masks with good affinity, a few with Best Affinity, and a few with Bad or Worst. What tarots they have best and bad affinities with tell you things about their personalities. In fact, I would say that their bad and worst affinities may be in reverse, which have a different meaning from upright readings.

Back on point, Maki and Yukino share opposite affinities for their best and bad Arcana, with Maki being best at Priestess, and worst at Empress, and Yukino being best at Empress and worst at Priestess. They are also the only two characters in the first game with a good affinity for Death arcana, with everyone else Except Reiji being Bad at it. (Reiji is Best for Death Tarot in the games). They are also driving forces behind their respective game routes, and can never be in the same party.

Reiji, as the hardest character to recruit in game, is also on a journey of his own, unless you get the requirements that allow him to open to the possibility of having a journey as friends. In fact Reiji has different strength and worst affinities to every party member, with the exception of Fortune which every party member has a best affinity for, and Moon which the males in the party have the best affinity for. Must just be that kind of time in their lives for all of them. 90s highschool.

Between tarots, birthday, initial persona, and blood type, we could look a lot into unsaid but present aspects of each characters personality.(If you want to learn what P3 protagonists blood type says about them, check out my post on Ketsuki-gata , they are bloodtype O.

In later games, they have simplified that by bringing the non player characters down to one arcana, and giving the protagonist nothing, expecting you to fill in the blanks. You are the fool on a journey, and thus filled with infinite potential, unlike everyone else who are more fixed in their presentation. They too are on their journeys, and perhaps their arcana is a reflection of who they are to the protagonist, and where they are in their personal journey.

Or maybe, alternatively, who the protagonist is to them. What mask does the Protagonist wear when interacting with them? Is the protagonist being the the face they need in their life to move to the next arcana in their journey, and that's why wearing the arcana mask they have gets more points in an interaction? Or are they being that face for the protagonist, the lesson they need. Perhaps it is both.

After all, we do have differing characters in our social links between the male and female protagonists in P3. Not a whole cast change, but they come across different people in their journeys, in contrast to P4 protagonist who can get different people for their links based on choices of club. And then there are party members Akihiko and Shinjiro, who have different Arcanas depending on the gender of the route you take.

This change is interesting, as none of the other cast members shift in perception. In fact, they are the last characters to have multiple arcana affinities in the series to date. And the original P3 had all of the characters capable of using personas come before 13 (Death) in the tarot. 0 the fool (protag), 1 the magician (Junpai), all the way to 12 the hanged man (Chidori).

In a Male route for Persona 3, Akihiko is the Emperor, and in a female route he is the star. Shinjiro meanwhile represents the Hierophant for a male, and the Moon for a female.

To try to keep this bit short (I have plans to go into more details about them in the future), the Emperor is symbolic of leadership, power, authority, influance, the father card lol. The star is a card of healing. It is a renewal of spirit, calmness, serenity, a positive outlook for the future. Basically one of the most positive cards in the deck.

The Hierophant is a teacher. In contrast to the high priestess who is mystery, intuition, and the unconscious, the Hierophant is traditionally based in education, righteousness, orthodoxy, sacred, and morals. The moon is probably the one of most complicated card in the deck, and holds meanings related to deception, and hidden aspects of life.

This indicates that the protagonists view and interact differently with Akihiko and Shinji based on gender and beliefs or vice versa. Probably a mix of both. For her, or perhaps to her Akihiko and Shinjiro were the star and the moon, even though their tarot journey still otherwise in life has them as Emperor and Hierophant.

That offers interesting things to speculate about. Some other post, or perhaps later in this one, I will get back to it. Lets talk about the Fool card.

For keywords" an upright fool is about new beginnings, freedom, innocence, idealism, freedom, adventure, and spontaneity. Its reversed keywords are gullible, reckless, careless, distracted, naive, foolish, stale, and dull. Its the card of infinite potential, a blank slate. Upright, it is a card of optimism, a new journey full of opportunities. The fool walks forward untroubled by the possible dangers ahead. They are willing to take risks off of intuition, expand their horizons, and generally, take that leap of faith. "

The bulk of Persona 3 is aptly called the journey, and it is about the P3 protagonist learning the lessons of the Tarot. There are reasons some social links are locked behind the progression of some other social links, and that is about the protagonist learning the lessons from the other arcana before they are ready to learn the lessons of other arcana. And perhaps ready to give the lesson that particular social link needs too.

I don't think I've seen a fic soley about the different masks of the any of the protagonists. Being a wildcard, they are good with all affinities, but being everything sounds intense.

"The reversed fool is about living in the moment, not planning for the future and disregarding the consequences of their actions. "

Which is what happens if you pick the bad endings. By giving up their memories in favor of ignorant happiness, you are choosing for them to live in the moment, giving up any potential of a future for their world to have a future, and whats more they give up everyone elses chance with that choice.

The other post P3 endings carry the themes of reversed fool, but I think it is strongest shown in P3.

In contrast giving up their life to save the world, gives them The World arcana.

"The world upright is about assured success, immigration, voyage, change of pace, flight. Reversed it is about Inertia, fixidity , stagnation, permanance. It is an ending to a cycle, a pause before the next journey begins with the fool.

“

To encounter the world in your cards is to encounter great unity and wholeness. It symbolizes the moment when the inner and other worlds, self and other, become a single entity. It is about reaching enlightenment. Nirvana. There is a recognition that the individual self is profoundly linked with all other things, and we are all dancing and sway along the flow of life to one rhythm. Not only do you hear this rhythm, but you participate in it - following the dips and the rises, the joys and the sorrows.

The meaning of the World card is fulfillment, achievement, and completion. This shows that all the efforts that you have been putting in place are starting to pay off. It reflects that you have completed a major milestone in your life and you have built the resilience to withstand challenges. The World may indicate completion of a long-term project, study or any other major event in your life. It may also mean the birth of a child, marriage, graduation or any other thing that you have accomplished.

The World card shows that you have a desire to give back to the community in various ways. You have a commitment to make the world a better place because you understand that everything is connected. “

Reversed, the world is “You are drawing near to something that marks the end of a journey or an era. You may have many accomplishments that have lined your path, but there is a strange emptiness that fills you when you look backwards upon it, as if you have all the pieces but they are not coming together. What is missing? Do you feel connected to what you're doing? Do you feel connected to others? What alienates you from feeling complete? From feeling whole?”

It's up to you the player to decide which aspect of The World you feel upon ending the game, but for what my opinion is worth, I am inclined to feel that the P3 protagonist is satisfied with their overall journey on the whole.

The movie took the male protagonist on an interesting journey with that, starting with him being apathetic and blunt. He manifests his trauma over his parents death by shitting out the world, and having little interest in many things including a sense of self preservation. He mostly joined cause, what else is he going to be getting up to at midnight? He breaks out of his aloofness whenever his friends are in danger, as dammit he does not want to witness another tragic ending. He comes to care more about his life and bonds over the course of the movies which impacts his abilities to fight, as “holy shit guys! This is dangrous!” Over the course of the movies, his arc is about learning to live again, instead of just surviving the day to day.

In game Protagonist is aloof, introverted, cool headed and talented. We know he uses proper grammar and tends to wander around for chats. He has good instincts, a preference for black comedy, and shares some catchphrases with Squall Leonheart. He likes video games, is at least somewhat sporty, and can play the violin, which implies that his caretakers were probably at least decently well off, as thats not a causal instrument to get into, but a pricy one. In game its easier to get social link rank ups by being enthusiastic, upbeat, kind, supportive and agreeable as you go out of your way to engage with them but as mentioned earlier, you can also go for the pessimistic, morbid, and lonely and barely engage at all.

If we go by the Q incarnation he's blunt, apathetic, and straight to the point. He has a metabolism people would kill for, cool and quick under pressure situations, and somewhat aloof. He cares though. “

In contrast to MC, FemC is “bubbly, upbeat, chearful, and funny. She has a wider range of humor options including sarcasm, joking tones, and dead seriousness. She is outspoken, blunt, and literal when getting her point across. In contrast to MC who is reserved and concise, she is more outspoken, injecting into conversations where he would remain silent. She's also likelier to resort to violence when provoked, particularly in defense of her friends.

She's seen by her friends in SEES as tough and dependable, as a leader should be. She's also a masker in that while she always seems to be in good spirits, she hides her suffering and burdens. She's also sensitive to criticism. The team worries about her.

She lets her cheerful masks down around Ryouji, her dialogue tones shifting to a more subdued to depressed vibe when answering him.

Like MC she has an insane metabolism, and unlike him she seems more possessive of it, getting mad if swiped without asking.”

(Grabbed from wiki mostly, as they put it nicer then I do at late hours)

That all said, is FemC Minato if Minato was born a girl?

In a lot of ways, yes. Their shared circumstances make them more similar then not. She could be a different universes version of Minato who is female. People go for the direction of having them be siblings. But it is equally likely that she was simply in a different car, and the battle in 1999 went slightly differently.

Are the differences between them purely gender socialization?

I would say no. I could see female Minato being an introverted, aloof, and cool headed girl, just as I could see Katone (I guess), being a blunt, bubbly, extroverted boy who is masking his doubts. It probably would not jive with everyone they meet, and might result in some diffhrent social links. You could speculate played a difference in how they delt with grief, and while that might have played a part in it, ultimately I think the big difference between them is that he is an introvert and she is an extrovert, and while that could be in part to expectations, it's more about social energy.

Even as a girl, I could still see Minato getting socially exhausted fast and shutting down. Even as a guy I could see Katone socially thriving.

Ultimately though, as a self insert, you shape how the protagonist interacts with the world, as they are meant to be a mirror you project into. And in P3 the characters gender is not super important. In P5 it would be a more loaded issue as the people of Tokyo would treat Joker differently as a girl with a criminal record, and the palace rulers in particular would have been grosser towards her as a woman.

But Minato would probably be mostly the same as a girl, save maybe not becoming best buds with Junpei, as I think it would take him longer to respect her, nor does she slot as easily into rival, this quiet firm girl, he doesn't quite know what to do with her for awhile.

Would she be as well received? Well, I can't say I'm an expert on what an audience wants, particularly a Japanese one, which is where the games target audience is, but I'm leaning towards no, or at least not at the games time of release. I can't think of any introverted, aloof, and coolheaded female protagonists off the top of my head, but tell me in the comments if you can think of any, readers!

As a neat note, its febuary 29th. Not only is it a leap year, its the day P3 was realesed in The EU in 2008!

You might've seen this piece about Superfans. It's not about most of us.

This piece in Variety is worth a read. They never come out and explicitly say it, but the "SUPERFANS" they're referencing are mostly white men. Specifically, racist, misogynist, transphobic, homophobic white men.

They're not dueling shippers. Not slash writers. Not the usual female fans that Supernatural poked at in its meta episodes. Not the women who kept Star Trek alive for decades. Not us.

These Toxic Fans are the Gamergate creeps. They're the guys who put up 4 hour rants about purity and source material. They throw the Rotten Tomatoes. And they made places we used to hang out (like Twitter and Reddit) toxic enough that we keep finding our way back here.

Сільвер.

Хоча за оповідями вона має зв'язок зі всевишнім Августом, насправді їй відомо лише трохи більше ніж іншим. Будучи однією з останніх первонароджених істот, вона возвела храм і почала брати до себе учнів, щоб робити з них майстерних володарів сил природи. Незважаючи на те, скільки вона побачила, у моменті та завжди залишається прихильною до учнів і бере від життя все можливе, в тому числі всесвітню славу також.

Деякі вважають, що якщо Август підніметься на землю, саме вона вкаже йому вірний шлях до чого би то не було.

Melody Amaranth from Super Lesbian Animal RPG

The main protagonist of a recently-released RPG Maker title that has spent many years in development and has received great critical reception.

Melody is a bisexual trans girl beastfolk resident of the small town of Greenridge. At the start of the game, she has recently entered a committed relationship with her girlfriend and childhood best friend, Allison Goleta and has become a paladin, type of healer that gets their power from a strong belief in something. At the start of the game, the player can choose whether this faith comes from nature, confidence, or the power of love. She soon enters a comedic and dramatic adventure across her home island to save the world from the threat of Javis, a glitch-based reality-warping wizard with a VHS tape for a head.

The game's creator, Bobby Schroeder, is also an overweight bisexual trans woman, and wanted to have her game's player character embody traits that are cute and positive but are seldom found in video game protagonists, including being fat.

four recent reads!

✧bottom left is ‘My Brilliant Friend’ (Elena Ferrante) and the right is ‘I Capture the Castle’ (Dodie Smith - who wrote 101 Dalmations!!!)

Both are fantastic books and I loved the theme of girlhood in both, though it took very different forms in each! Highly highly recommend ❤️‍🔥

My suggestions series with female protagonists (many of which have a mostly female cast as well.)

Senran Kagura

Keijo!!!!!!!

Manyuu Hikenchou

Kill la Kill

Mitsudomoe

Asobi Asobase

So I'm a Spider, So What?

Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle

Machimaho

Franken Fran

Monster Wrestling: Interspecies Combat Girls

Mai-chan's Daily Life

Koro Koro Soushi

Uzumaki

Tomie (if you can call her a "protagonist". It's more like she is the titular franchise antagonist like Freddy Kruger, or Chucky from Childs Play)

Akame ga Kill (Depending of if you see Akame or Tatsuya as the main character)

Elfen Lied (depending on if you see Lucy or Kouta as the main character)

Killing Bites (Depending on if you see Hitomi or Yuuya as the main character)

Freezing (Depending on if you see Satellizer or Kazuya as the main character)

Rozen Maiden (Depending on if you see Shinku or Jun as the protagonist)

Higurashi, arguably (Keiichi is the protagonist of the first two arcs, but other characters take up that role in later arcs. By the end one could argue that there isn't really any single main character, but since 6 out of 7 of the main character are girls, it could very much be considered a female-led series)

PowerPuff Girls

Legend of Korra

Harley Quinn: the Animated Series

Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Wednesday

The X-Files, arguably (Fox Mulder and Dana Scully share the protagonist role for the first 7 seasons, and though Mulder got top billing and slightly more focus, the actor left after season 7 and his character was replaced by John Dogget. This means Scully appears in more episodes than any other character and is the only one to be a main protagonist in every season, making her arguably the protagonist of the series as a whole, depending on who you ask. Additionally, Monica Reyes was added as a third main character in the 9th and final season of the og series, meaning one season had a 2/1 female / male protagonist ratio.)

Beetlejuice 2 (despite the title, Lydia and Astrid are the protagonists of this movie. In fact, in the first movie the protagonist role is shared between Adam and Barbara)

Coraline

Alien (Ellen Ripley is the protagonist of most movies in this series)

Hellraiser (Julia is effectively the villain protagonist of the first half, with Kristy being the protagonist of the second half. Kristy is also more or less the protagonist of the sequel)

Jessica Jones (the TV show)

Wonder Woman (the movie and comics)

She-Hulk (the comics)

Batgirl (the comics)

Catwoman (the comics)

Birds of Prey (the comics)

New Mutants, kind of (There isn't really any one main character, but there have generally been slightly more female members than male ones in most iterations of the team. The team leader role is also more or less shared between the male Cannonball and female Mirage, if I'm remembering correctly.)

Lenore, the Cute Little Dead Girl

Serenity Rose

Courtney Crumrin

Nightmares and Fairy Tales

Princess Lucinda

Hack / Slash

Bomb Queen

Vampire Cheerleaders

Skull Girls (fighting game where all but two of the playable characters are female. Filia is kind of the unofficial "face" of the game, but the protagonist really depends on who's story mode you play.)

Really, most of the games I play are either fighting games where you can play whichever character you want, with most having their own story mode or rpgs where you can choose your character's gender.

There's also a ton of romance anime that also fall into the "main character is debatable" category: Familiar of Zero, Don't Toy with Me Miss Nagatoro, Darling in the FRANXX, Kodomo no Jikan, Astarotte's Toy etc.

Frankly, of if I were to list media where 60 to 99% of the cast were female, regardless of the protagonist's gender, the list would probably be AT LEAST 3 times as long, if not longer, due to just how much anime, manga and Japanese media I love falls into that category.

"do y'all have recs for media with a female protagonist"

"[male protagonist] is a girl to me"

I'm tearing you limb from limb

Sense and Sensibility: A Delicate Tapestry of Love and Society

Jane Austen's "Sense and Sensibility" weaves a captivating tale of love, resilience, and societal expectations in early 19th-century England. Published in 1811, this timeless classic follows the Dashwood sisters, Elinor and Marianne, as they navigate the challenges of life, love, and loss in a society governed by strict social conventions.

At the heart of "Sense and Sensibility" are the contrasting personalities of Elinor and Marianne Dashwood. Elinor, the epitome of sense, embodies rationality, propriety, and self-control, while Marianne, the embodiment of sensibility, is characterized by her passionate nature, emotional intensity, and romantic idealism. Austen masterfully explores the tension between these two opposing qualities, highlighting the virtues and pitfalls of each as the sisters navigate the complexities of romantic entanglements and societal expectations.

One of the most compelling aspects of "Sense and Sensibility" is Austen's incisive portrayal of the constraints and expectations placed upon women in Regency-era England. Through the experiences of the Dashwood sisters, Austen illuminates the limited options available to women of their social standing, whose futures are largely determined by their ability to make advantageous marriages. As Elinor and Marianne grapple with the pressures of propriety and the dictates of their hearts, Austen offers a poignant commentary on the challenges faced by women in a patriarchal society.

Moreover, "Sense and Sensibility" is celebrated for its richly drawn characters, sparkling dialogue, and subtle humor. From the affable and pragmatic Colonel Brandon to the dashing but duplicitous John Willoughby, Austen populates her novel with a cast of memorable characters whose foibles and follies add depth and texture to the narrative. Austen's keen observations of human nature and her sharp wit are on full display as she deftly skewers the hypocrisies and vanities of her characters with a gentle but incisive touch.

In addition to its exploration of love and society, "Sense and Sensibility" is notable for its enduring themes of resilience, sisterhood, and female agency. Despite the setbacks and disappointments they face, Elinor and Marianne demonstrate remarkable strength and resilience as they navigate the complexities of their circumstances and strive to carve out their own paths in life. Austen's celebration of sisterhood and female solidarity resonates with readers of all ages, offering a timeless message of hope and empowerment.

In conclusion, "Sense and Sensibility" by Jane Austen is a timeless classic that continues to captivate readers with its richly drawn characters, incisive social commentary, and poignant exploration of love and sisterhood. Austen's masterful storytelling and keen insight into the human heart make "Sense and Sensibility" a compelling and deeply resonant read that speaks to the universal truths of the human experience. With its enduring relevance and timeless appeal, "Sense and Sensibility" remains a beloved masterpiece of English literature.

Jane Austen's "Sense and Sensibility" is available in Amazon in paperback 18.99$ and hardcover 25.99$ editions.
