Kanji Tatsumi

Kanji Tatsumi is a main character in Persona 4 Abridged, a student of Yasogami High, and a target of the Midnight Channel relatively early on.
== Biography ==
Kanji was the first person to be a target of the Midnight Channel after the core members of the Investigation Team rescued Yukiko Amagi. As such, Kanji was the first victim to be rescued that the characters didn't already know initially, leading them to have to investigate into his life prior to rescuing him. It was discovered that Kanji lived with his mother, an old lady of a dubious morality who owns a textile shop in town. Thanks to Yu, it was also discovered that Kanji could knit stuffed animals and, at one point, confessed his love to a small child. After being rescued by Yu and the others, and after some off-screen persuasion, Kanji decided to forego studying in order to use his new persona to help solve the murder case.
Kanji, being the newest member of the Investigation Team, is the most mysterious. Despite this, his expressive personality has been clearly demonstrated through his actions. He seems to be less grounded than a lot of the other characters but somehow still practical and sensible. When encountering his shadow, to determine whether or not his shadow self was truly him or not, he asked him to name the "square dancing champion" of 2005, for example. On the flip side, when asked to join the Investigation Team, he initially declined because he wanted to prioritize school, and when confronted by Yosuke about the stuffed bunny he made, he gave a reasonably straight-forward and blunt answer. He appears, at first glance, to be a spacier character with occasional drops of poignancy who just enjoys being himself.
