NAME ■ Minato Arisato
CANON ■ Persona 3
AGE ■ 17
HEIGHT ■ 170 cm
WEIGHT ■ 68 kg
CANON POINT ■ Post-game.
RESIDENCE ■ De Chima #002
JOB ■ High school senior, part time clothing retail.
POWERS ■ Persona summoning, the ability to hand anyone any clothes and they will put them on.
BACKGROUND SUMMARY ■ As for Minato's role in the story, put simply he is a martyr. In 1999 when Minato was seven years old, the ultimate Persona / Shadow of the Death Arcana, Thanatos, escaped and killed his parents while in the Dark Hour, a hidden period of time at midnight. Aigis, a combat robot, was pursuing Thanatos, and sealed it inside of child Minato since she knew she couldn't defeat it. This set a precedent of repression for Minato-- he bounced from relative to relative for the next ten years, constantly switching schools, and living in near complete apathy. He could barely remember his parents or their deaths, and certainly not the details of it. It is confirmed in the first movie that he's been experiencing the Dark Hour every night since then, which is why he isn't surprised at all in the beginning of the game.
Throughout the plot of the game itself, Minato embodies the role of unwavering, stalwart leader of SEES, a group of high schoolers dedicated to destroying Shadows, the monsters that prowl the Dark Hour. He grows into being a very kind person as his apathy slowly crumbles, even if he never really gets much more talkative. His Social Links are instrumental in pulling him out of his shell. In the end, Minato sacrifices himself to seal Nyx, a great evil trying to bring about Armageddon due to SEES's actions. We learn in the Answer that he actually didn't seal Nyx-- he sealed Erebus, the expression of humanity's despair trying to reach Nyx and awaken it. His soul is bound for eternity as the seal.
His ultimate Persona is Messiah, basically cementing that his function is, as fandom puts it, to be blue-haired Jesus. Minato is a story of isolation and bonds, and eventually selflessness.
