in the rank 7 “You’re charming as you are.” is needed for romance
For doing rank 7, when you hand Shinya the calling card and he says that his mom is bad, if you choose “No, she’s not.” you get +3
Sorry, for some reason I was on the Shinya page and this is where my comment got posted ????
Rank 6 – the third option for the call is “I’ll dig up some more for you.” +2
As of 05/17. hitting rank 5 with Ohya gives you Unprecedented Scoop.
Charm gains seem to be increased drastically in P5R. E.g. I’ve got 3 charm for getting rank 7.
I got rank 9 but there was the phone call from her and it just moves on to the next day. I got rank 9 on 11/14.
This is the Devil Confidant, not Death.
8-2 Third Answer I put: “I’ll go with you.” and got +3. Just thought I’d point out there was a bit there that was missed, since it is not listed here.
You need to pursue the truth will also get a plus 3 if you have a devil persona
Chose ‘That’s not like you’ with devil persona and also got +3 🙂
8-1 “You Seem Tired” got +2 with a devil persona
