Issues

This article is in need of research.

Reason: The contents and bonuses were compiled by translating what was written on the covers and finding product listings on Mercari and Surugaya that mentioned "included with Persona Magazine" or "Persona Magazine bonus". This is not always reliable, as one might say "P4G" on the cover then it includes a 1 page ad for the game and nothing else.
