Profile

Origin

Main section: Konohana Sakuya § Origin

All of the party member's first Personas were chosen for them from Japanese figures based on their storylines. In the case of Yukiko, Konohana Sakuya was chosen because of her image as a girl whom a prince falls in love with.[1]

Design

When designing Persona 4, Shigenori Soejima imagined that Chie and Yosuke would be a visual pair, while the protagonist and Yukiko would be another visual pair.[2] Thus, for Konohana Sakuya, Soejima made her to accompany the protagonist's Izanagi. Izanagi looks manly: He has a boys' school uniform, a knife, and he gives off the vibes of an Ōendan leader. Accordingly, Konohana Sakuya was designed to be feminine: She looks like a pom girl, she has cherry blossoms, and her color is pink.[3]
