in the early 2000s you'd be hard-pressed
to find someone in Japan who didn't know
of the Kyoto group a global conglomerate
involved in nearly every aspect of daily
life and the heiress to this impressive
company was a young girl named it's
aruki rajo but unknown to her the family
company was into some pretty sketchy
stuff her grandpa started experimenting
with some sort of mental world called
the mind place or more officially the
collective unconscious a realm connected
to every living being subconscious mind
and within the collective unconscious
dwells shadows fragments of human psyche
which often appear as malevolent
monsters kind of however there's another
sort more directly integrated with the
minds of individual people effectively
becoming their shadow selves who are
close enough grabs trade to get the
shadows for himself but does anyone who
try to summon demons will tell you huh
don't do that
trust me it never works out and when it
does it doesn't pay us incarnate erupted
the resulting explosion from his
experiment or at least the shadows into
reality to prey on an unsuspecting
populace and unveiled the Tartarus a
citadel between worlds the earth was
drastically changed with a new dark hour
an extra hour of time occurring at
midnight most folks didn't notice though
the world basically freezes in time
during the dark hour including people so
nobody's got to pick up a new 25 hour
plug cuz when the hour runs up
everything continues like nothing
happened it's like getting an extra hour
of secret sleep but some people are able
to operate during this hour including
Mitsuru which she decided to take full
advantage of yeah she felt pretty guilty
about her family basically ruining
everything and sending hundreds of
murder monsters into the world so she
swore to fix her grandpappy's mess and
while she is certainly skilled with a
rapier thanks to her time in fencing
club
single sword would never be enough to
combat the hordes of shadows luckily her
first experience with the dark hour
helped her out in this regard that's one
way to put it she and her dad were
almost murdered by spooky shadow but
this event also led to an awakening with
the threat of death itself mere seconds
away MIT's route dug deep within and
found a new weapon her shadow self and
that's how she became a person user
persona music yes I've said thanks to
this fateful night MIT's Roo can summon
a manifestation of her personality known
as a persona
this was Penthesilea who would
eventually evolve into her ultimate form
Artemisia RT is the best non imaginary
friend you could ask for
she's got all sorts of powerful light
spells she can heal Miss Rose wounds she
can drain someone's energy and add it to
Midsummer's own and she can blow people
up with Megan deal it's a big purple
kaboom that ignores special defenses
anyway and to top it all of these get a
kinky eggs with while Artemisia cannot
really be killed she does have her
limits when a persona is overtaxed or
takes too much damage it becomes broken
and unusable for a short time and since
Artemisia is technically part of Miss
Rose mind when the persona gets hurt so
does she but this connection also grant
Schmitt through her own set of special
powers she's physically superior to most
others she can also sense the locations
of people and layouts of buildings
through analytical clairvoyance she's
also immune to ice in the cold so I'm
not really sure why she needs a giant
fur coat everyone needs a good fur coat
Wiz but who would wear a fur coat into
battle um you ever heard of goddamn
barbarian I mean a fur coat like that
well then clearly someone would good
taste you know what I want that coat I'm
going to the store you've got to stop
walking out of these and he's gone well
then come back next week for the full
episode of Weiss vs. Mitzvah
