Shadow Chie is a character in Persona series. It is the Shadow of Chie Satonaka.
Profile
Shadow Chie is the Shadow of Chie Satonaka. After Chie hears Yukiko's voice in Yukiko's Castle, it manifests as a copy of her but with yellow eyes named Other Chie. After being denied by Chie, it transforms into Shadow Chie, and the protagonist and Yosuke must defeat it. With some encouragement from the boys, Chie accepts it as part of her, and it becomes her Persona Tomoe.
Other Chie looks the same as regular Chie, while the boss Shadow appears similar to a dominatrix sitting atop multiple girls in Yasogami High uniforms. Shigenori Soejima designed these figures in the image of people other than Chie (mainly Yukiko).[1]
Gameplay
Game Appearances
On April 17th, the protagonist, Yosuke, and Chie enter the TV World to save Yukiko Amagi. Once Teddie leads them to Yukiko's Castle, Chie immediately takes off by herself to rescue Yukiko. The boys catch up to her on the 2nd floor. After hearing Yukiko's voice talking about Chie, another Chie with yellow eyes named Other Chie appears before the group. The Other Chie reveals that Chie is jealous of Yukiko's femininity, looks, and how boys pay attention to her. Chie feels inadequate when compared to Yukiko, and due to this, Other Chie claims that Chie gets a kick out of how Yukiko depends on her and this is the reason why Chie is her friend. Once Chie hears this, she denies that Other Chie is really her, even as Yosuke tries to stop her. This causes Other Chie to transform into Shadow Chie, a figure resembling a dominatrix sitting on top of multiple long haired girls that look similar to Yukiko. The Shadow attacks the protagonist and Yosuke. After the boss battle, Chie acknowledges that she tried to ignore this part of her, and her Shadow turns into Tomoe. But Chie clarifies to the others that, contrary to how her Shadow made it seem, she really does value Yukiko as a friend. The Shadow presents an alternate possibility for the person it came from: While the real Chie treasures Yukiko as a friend, her Shadow looks down on Yukiko.[2] Later scenes build on Chie's insecurity as she continues to compare herself to and feels threatened by other girls, such as Rise,[3] Chihiro,[4] and Naoto.[5]
