This page covers gameplay information of Daisuke Nagase from Persona 4.

Social Link

  This section is a stub. You can help Megami Tensei Wiki by expanding it.
Reason: The Social Link information was compiled from the Persona 4 The Golden: The Complete Guide. It is missing:
  • PS2 P4 availability schedule, rank up points, dialogue options & points (if different)
  • P4G evening hangout dialogue

In Persona 4 and Persona 4 Golden, Daisuke is one of two options for the Strength Social Link. He becomes available on April 19th when the protagonist can choose a sports club to join. Daisuke is on the soccer team, and the other Strength character, Kou Ichijo, is on the basketball team. The protagonist can go to soccer practice to rank up his Social Link. After maxing his Social Link, he gives the protagonist his Spike Brush which allows fusion of Zaou-Gongen.

Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday Rainy Weather
Day Night Day Night Day Night Day Night Day Night Day Night Day Night Day Night
 Evening hangouts only

Generally speaking, the protagonist can go meet Daisuke at the field for soccer practice on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday after school. The field can be accessed by leaving through the emergency exit on the 1st and 2nd floors of Yasogami High School. The soccer team does not meet on rainy days or other bad weather days.

He has very specific dates for this evening hangout, though you can usually find him on the north map of the central shopping district on Monday evenings.

For the full list of day-by-day Social Link availability, see the Calendar in Persona 4 Golden.

Evening Hangouts

In Golden, on certain dates, you can hang out with Daisuke in the Central Shopping District during the evening. Which hangout you get is prioritized as follows: Limited > 1st time > 2nd time > generic. This resets every month. Afterwards, you will receive a random item. See the items list below to see what possible items you can obtain. For more about evening hangouts and point multipliers, see the Social Link mechanics page.
