The story focuses on the 16-year-old protagonist, Akira Kurusu, who got transferred to Shujin High School in Tokyo after he was sued by a man with political connection for a non-existent violence when Akira saved a woman from being molested by the man, leading to his probation. Arriving in Tokyo, he finds a mysterious app got installed into his phone that enables him to enter another world formed from corrupt hearts of adults where he awakens his power called Persona. During his times there, he is joined by two fellow students Ryuuji Nakamoto and Anne Takamaki, and a shape-shifting cat-like creature known as Morgana. Feeling suppressed by their environment, the four form a group known as the "Phantom Thieves of Heart" to steal corrupt hearts of adults and reform society..
After defying a powerful man to protect a woman from sexual assault, Akira Kurusu finds himself with a criminal record for doing the right thing. The subsequent fallout causes him to move to Shibuya and attend Shujin Academy following his expulsion from his previous school. Shunned by the people around him, Akira is constantly reminded to lay low and get through the school year without disturbing the peace.
Unfortunately, his arrival in Shibuya is nothing short of strange and troublesome. Akira finds an undeletable app on his phone, unsure of when he had downloaded it. And on his way to school, he gets caught in the rain alongside Ryuuji Sakamoto, Shujin's notorious delinquent. When the phone app suddenly triggers itself, the two are transported into an eerie world infested with demonic creatures.
As they find themselves cornered by these shadow-like beings, an innate power awakens within Akira, allowing him to fight them off. Now armed with a "Persona," a manifestation of his personality, Akira works with Ryuuji to unravel the mystery behind this unfamiliar world.
