Game Appearances

Persona 4

On his first night in Inaba, the protagonist dreams of a place with red flooring that is full of fog. During the true ending, this place is revealed to be Yomotsu Hirasaka, and Izanami asks him if he remembers seeing it in his dreams. As the protagonist enters down the different paths, Izanami explains that she chose three people to ascertain what humans truly desired, and through this, she learned people only see what they want to see, picking lies and falsehoods over pursuit of the truth. Rise rejects that a world full of fog is not what humans want, nor would Nanako and Dojima want that. Izanami questions what good comes from the truth and finds it foolish that the group continues to pursue it. She awaits the party on the last path of Yomotsu Hirasaka and is seemingly impervious to their attacks until the protagonist unveils her true form with the Orb of Sight. After summoning Izanagi-no-Okami, the protagonist is able to defeat Izanami with the Myriad Truths. The scenery of Yomotsu Hirasaka disappears from around the Investigation Team and they see the TV World as a picturesque landscape.

Persona 4: Dancing All Night

The entrance to Yomotsu Hirasaka is used as Tohru Adachi's dance stage. It was picked to represent that he is dreaming, similar to how the protagonist dreams of Yomotsu Hirasaka on his first night in Inaba.[1]
