The Arcana system is generally a decisive factor in the fusion process, where fusing Personas of specific Arcana will result in a Persona of another Arcana. Some arcana pairs are incompatible and cannot be fused. In the Persona series, the Personas' Arcana are functionally equivalent to demon races. According to the Persona World guide, each Arcana in Megami Ibunroku Persona equals a specific race (such as the Lovers Arcana being composed of demons from the Fairy race). These racial equivalences were partially kept in Persona 2 and abandoned in Persona 3 onwards, which instead divided Personas on how they are most closely related to their Arcana, such as the Lovers Arcana being comprised of demons who are related to love and relationships. Revered female figures in history and mythology are the models for the Personas of the Priestess Arcana. Social Link/Confidant

Has no effect on gameplay. Yet contrary to my assumptions, I was stumped by the Arcana mechanics in Persona 4 and could have used an Arcana Persona guide to have a better time gaming.

Generally speaking, the quality of a Persona game won’t change much, even if the player isn’t familiar with Arcanas. Cause even though Arcanas are comparable to Pokemon types, they don’t have fixed strengths and weaknesses. So anyone can play a Persona game without needing to be concerned about which Arcana their Personas in the party are from. The cards are amazing, and they even added the thoth arcans after i asked if it was possible to do so. Reich (Nazis in the PlayStation release) Machine Leo Aquarius Scorpio Taurus Rumor Human Zombie (misspelled as Zonbie in Eternal Punishment) Dummy Trivia [ ] Death: Upright the Death arcana is very fascinating, as instead of representing literal death it represents change, transformation, and transition. As they say, when one door closes another door opens! This fits Takemi, since she was unfortunately fired from her old job but because of that she ended up running a clinic in Yongen and meeting Joker who helps her! Reversed the Death arcana may symbolize resistance to change, personal transformation, and inner purging. It's true that Takemi does somewhat "purge" herself of her inner demons haunting her as she comes to realize that she actually isn't at fault for what happened to Miwa-chan.Kenji Tomochika - Hidetoshi Odagiri - Bunkichi and Mitsuko - Kazushi Miyamoto - Chihiro Fushimi - Isako Toriumi - Keisuke Hiraga - Yuko Nishiwaki - Maiko Oohashi - Pharos - Bebe - President Tanaka - Mutatsu - Mamoru Hayase - Nozomi Suemitsu - Akinari Kamiki - Rio Iwasaki - Saori Hasegawa - Ryoji Mochizuki You can also easily distinguish Personas from this Arcana as they’re portrayed by angelic or righteous beings.
