This article covers information about the Emperor Social Link , Hidetoshi Odagiri , including events featured in Persona 3 and Persona 3 Portable .
The protagonist can start Hidetoshi's Social Link as early as April 27th, after Mitsuru Kirijo signs them up for Student Council. He can be found during the day in the Student Council Room opposite of Class 2F on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays . After January 25th, however, he is also available on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
If playing as the female protagonist , he will confess his love for her only after his Social Link is maxed—as such, he cannot actually be romanced.
Hidetoshi gives the protagonist a Cheap Lighter when the Social Link is maxed, which enables the fusion of Odin .
Skills [ ]
Unlike Persona 4 and Persona 5 , advancing a character's Social Link in Persona 3 does not grant skills usable in battle. Instead, completing the Fool Social Link, SEES , grants various benefits and abilities.
