Mitsuru Kirijo is a character in Persona 3. She is a 3rd year student at Gekkoukan High School, the student council president, and a founding member of S.E.E.S.. She would later create the Shadow Operatives prior to Persona 4 Arena.

Profile

Mitsuru is the heiress of the Kirijo Group, a very wealthy family run conglomerate. She is a founding member of S.E.E.S. and was one of the first to awaken to a Persona. Despite managing S.E.E.S., being student council president, and part of the fencing club, Mitsuru maintains excellent grades and graduates as valedictorian of her class. She is an incredibly responsible individual and has troubles relying on others. Due to her wealthy upbringing, Mitsuru hasn't tried things like hamburgers before that would otherwise be normal to teenagers her age. She's fluent in another language[a] and will occasionally use foreign phrases when speaking. Though she doesn't have much time to herself due to her other activities, she owns a motorcycle that she enjoys riding on when she gets the rare opportunity to do so.

Mitsuru wears her school uniform with knee high boots and no jacket. In Persona 3 Reload, she also wears a black vest and gloves over her school uniform as her Tartarus battle attire.
