Game Appearances

Persona 4

After getting hints about Kanji Tatsumi from NPCs as early as May 18th, the player can then speak to Naoto Shirogane at Junes as early as May 19th to unlock the dungeon in the TV World.

The Steamy Bathhouse was born from a combination of Kanji's poor relationships with people (especially girls) and telling himself that being with men would be easier and he would be less afraid if he could like men. However, because he is not actually gay and has a poor understanding of what homosexuality is, the dungeon reflects his understanding of it but mixed with bathhouse imagery.[1][2] The Investigation Team find Kanji in bath #11 with his Shadow. Like the others, Kanji rejects his Shadow causing it to transform and attack the group, but after the group battles it, he is able to accept it.

The dungeon's fog weather deadline is June 4th. If Kanji is not rescued before then, Yukiko will call the protagonist and let him know that Kanji's dead body was found.
