   Summary

   AU where Ren is a third year at Shujin and sits behind Makoto in class.

   If you like ShuMako but you always kinda wished it was the main focus of the game, then this is the story for you!

   A retelling of Persona 5 Royal with a hard focus on Ren and Makoto, along with general team bonding moments and teen shenanigans.

   [NG+ in terms of stats and Personas]
