===Persona 4===

In the midst of their rescue mission, where Chie Satonaka, Yosuke Hanamura and the protagonist attempted to save Yukiko Amagi, Chie ran off on her own ahead and was drawn by a voice over of a saddened Yukiko, lamenting how useless and worthless she is and how Chie is always by her side to save her. This resulted in a physiological reaction on Chie, causing her Shadow Self to manifest. Shadow Chie claims that Chie and Yukiko's friendship was a farce and she's actually taking advantage of Yukiko because she was jealous of Yukiko's higher social status and beauty. Chie denies this, insisting that her friendship with Yukiko was genuine.
After being denied, Chie's Shadow goes berserk and attacks the protagonist and Yosuke. The monster Shadow Chie manifests into takes the form of a long haired, masked dominatrix with a banana head supported by three pale, trembling female figures resembling Yasogami High students. The dominatrix has long black hair, similar to Yukiko's, or rather, the dominatrix is "sitting" on this hair. 
Shadow Chie represents Chie's envy of Yukiko, specificially on Yukiko's traditional feminine beauty and higher social status, along with a twisted sense of satisfaction over Yukiko's relianceon her, showing a desire to control Yukiko and propping herself up with her. Shadow Chie asks the Protagonist and Yosuke why they're protecting Chie, whom it calls a "grubby bitch."
After defeating Chie's Shadow, Chie reluctantly accepts it and awakens her Persona, Tomoe.
====The Animation====
In episode 3, as Shadow Chie transformed, she used her hair as a weapon to bind the Investigation Team and attack them. Using her whip, she trapped Chie in a dark space, made up of negative inner emotions. As she felt regret, sorrow, and depression, she began to disappear into the darkness along with her body and soul. However, Yu confronts Shadow Chie, telling her how Chie was still Yukiko's friend and how she was willing to protect her despite her own jealousy, bringing her back to her senses.
Yu summons Pyro Jack, which burns off her hair and frees Yosuke from being pinned. The two of them combine their attacks to defeat Shadow Chie, who reverts to normal and changes to Tomoe Gozen after Chie accepts her shadow.

==Strategy==
===Persona 4===
Shadow Chie has a weakness to Wind skills that can be easily taken advantage of by using Yosuke's ability to use Garu. After knocking it down, All-Out Attacks can be used to deal massive damage. Shadow Chie can also use the skill Green Wall to counter this strategy. If this is the case, setting Yosuke to use Physical attacks or Dia can be of use. Other Personas, such as Angel or Sandman, can also utilize Garu skills to knock down Shadow Chie. To increase damage, utilize Izanagi's Rakunda to lower Shadow Chie's defense. Eventually, Shadow Chie will "glare" at a character. If this happens, the player should guard with that character. Generally, she will glare at Yosuke, and follow up with Mazio, a skill he is weak to. If the character did not guard, Shadow Chie will usually use Bottomless Envy to damage and inflict Dizzy on the opponent.
