Der Doppelgänger

[katsona-the-katsequel]

Being honest, of all people and Persona users in the series, I think Nyarlathotep would hate Makoto and Kotone the most. To such ungodly level that, by jungian "pyshics" (enantiodromia), turns back to respect. That's because they reached the answer to life's greatest question; they are "living, breathing" affirmations of life's potential to become whole and individuated, incarnations of the archetype of the Self, the meaning of life that Nyarlathotep always tries to deny (he is chaos in the absurdist sense, after all).

Though I agree he would lost interest on them after a while, despite the Great Seal showing him wrong into a fundamental level. I also agree with his interest for the PT. Just like Yaldabaoth, Maruki, Enlil, Salmael... and, really, a long list of deities show, good intentions can easily turn into catatstrophes for humanity.

You raise some good points. Maybe if Nyarly bothered to see what they were about beyond "fighting to stop Nyx", Minato/Kotone would become his new hyperfixation. I like to believe Nyarly (if he's still around by P3) began to gain an interest in SEES beyond seeing them as another ones' puppets after Ikutsuki's betrayal. This interest would grow as Minato/Kotone began to formulate their own beliefs and stand out more as the true leaders even outside the field, and peaked in the fight against the Avatar.

If Minato/Kotone had survived the fight (Nyarly probably realized they would die by Seal anyway) then they would have reached Tatsuya-levels of interest. A Great Seal doesn't provide much for philosophical conversation and they're impossible to try to corrupt. Its a Seal. This is probably a good thing, since Nyarly would have gone for the "let's traumatize them until I break them" route. Nyarly, in all his stupid glory, probably went "it doesn't count because they died in the end. So there. I win and everyone is doomed no matter what", completely missing (or ignoring) the point.

Comic - 寄り添う手 [Eng]

Title: 寄り添う手 (Entwining Hands) Artist: まあさ (Maasa)

Pixiv link Google Drive link

Personal Note: Not a doujinshi, but I've wanted to translate this artist's comics for quite a while… Anything Nyarutatsu I eat up (but I also want to translate their extensive other story in pixiv). The artist has been pretty inactive since 2022 sadly… 寄り添う手 - is more like "snuggling, nestling, cuddling" but I went with entwining a bit because it seemed a bit better? クトゥﾉﾚフの弔詞 - that's the name of the game the artist references

妄想 - Delusion, fantasy, a bit of an appropiate term "headcanon"

Direct view under the cut

Artist note: "I played the neglected PSP version of 10 years ago and finished the Additional Scneario. And because of that, I was surprised at Ta-chan's remark of "I want to die", and became obsessed over the side effects of Nyaru-sama's brand. I combined it with my own headcanon that I thought for longer than a decade, PSP aside, and it finally took shape. That's refreshing I secretly made a tribute to the free game "Cthulhu's Condolence". Nyarutatsu increase!"

Months later and yeah I'm still totally on the "Azathoth is totally not a real Persona and is 100% Nyarlathotep back on his bullshit" headcanon train. Azathoth actually being a Nyarly completely solves the "Persona users can't have palaces" dilemma, his methods (seemingly give people what they want to lure them into inaction and complacency) line up well, and the design aesthetics (especially those grasping black with electric blue/green hands....) are close enough for me! Nyarly loves playing fake persona, and I'm glad he got to have some fun in P5R.

This will never be touched on in future games or be proven canon, but *I* will always know in my heart of hearts that I'm 100% correct LOLLL
