Quick Links
With the setting ofPersona 3 Portablebeing a small town in Japan that somehow feels quite big, it’s easy to lose track of where your almost two dozen social links hang out at any given time. Between students at Gekkoukan and folks you meet around Tatsumi Port Island, you’re sure to find a soft spot for at least one of these quirky characters.

Tracking them down can be a hassle, though, as people show up in some strange places throughout the game. For help finding the location of every social link in Persona 3 Portable, we’ve got you covered.
Anystory eventsthat happen on a set date will supersede the free time you would have had otherwise on that date. Your social links will be unavailable.
We’ve kept this social link location guide as spoiler-free as possible, but beware that following any of the links below to individual social links will contain spoilers related to that character, as they detail all dialogue options for each rank of their social link.
Social Links At Gekkoukan High
Below is information on Gekkoukan High students where the social link between the male and female protagonists is the same for each arcana.
Many of them will have alimited availability during exam weeks.
It’s important to note thatthe male protagonist will always end up dating any female social linkthat you max out before the end of the game. Youwill not receive the option to turn them down, all but forcing you into having multiple girlfriends.
Thefemale protagonist does not have this problem; if you’re playing as her, you’llhave full control over which of the social links you date(if any at all).
