Character 	Description
Echo Shiori 	A glitched entity that represents Shiori Ren's biggest fear, being left behind as a weird outcast by her former friends. Her Echo manifests as a octopus-like monstrosity that dresses like and claims to be an ordinary teenage girl. It uses its many tentacles to smash or hurl about the player's team members. It can also twist them into walls to isolate team members from each other, preventing them from healing or buffing each other until the wall's HP is drained. It is fought in the Twilight Realm.
Echo Takako 	A glitched entity that represents Takako Youko's biggest fear, injuring a friend. As such, her Echo is a deformed human woman fused at the back with a gigantic swiss army knife filled with different deadly weapons. Its attacks are brutal and have an above-average chance of critical hits, and its health is quite high, but it has no resistances and takes damage somewhat quickly. It is fought in the Twilight Realm.
Echo Akira 	A glitched entity that represents Akira Makoto's biggest fear, being stuck a tool for somebody else - in this case, Yoshi Hibiki. His Echo is a highly detailed statue of a king on a throne. Impaled on the throne's spiked base are smaller statues, with the front one depicting Akira. It is fought in the Twilight Realm.
Haru ShunS.E.G.A. No. 10 	Haru Shun is the first member of S.E.G.A. that the player fights against. Like other S.E.G.A. members, Haru utilizes a Persona - in his case, Zant of the Death Arcana. Haru is a fairly defensive battler, mainly utilizing buffs to get him stronger in an attempt to defeat the other team's party in one attack while making sure that their attacks don't hit as much. He is fought in the Twilight Realm.
Yoshi HibikiS.E.G.A. No. 9 	His Persona is Phantoon of the Emperor Arcana. Yoshi wll mainly take advantage of his Persona's unique characteristic, being able to leech off life of other things. When one of the player's team members is down, Yoshi will begin to leech off that member's health, giving them an incurable status effect and locking that party member so that the player can't switch off. He is fought in the Abandoned Ruins.
Kaoru Kohaku & Minato Kohaku S.E.G.A. No. 8 & 7	A double battle. Minato's Persona is Dark Matter of the Devil Arcana, and Kaoru's Persona is Dark Meta Knight of the Star Arcana. The twins switch their priorities in battle after a few turns, changing their tactics from Full Assault to Support when needed. Once one of the twins is defeated, the other will go automatically into Full Assault and will never switch tactics again. They are fought in the Halberd Skyship.
 	
Echo Riku 	A glitched entity that represents Riku Kenji's biggest fear.
Echo Ayane 	A glitched entity that represents Ayane Keiko's biggest fear.
Echo Katsorou 	A glitched entity that represents Katsorou Osamu's biggest fear.
Echo Saburo 	A glitched entity that represents Saburo Minoru's biggest fear.
Echo Kazuo/Keiko 	A glitched entity that represents Kazuo Ryo or Keiko Kyou's biggest fear.
Echo Yuu 	A glitched entity that represents Yuu Haruka's biggest fear.
Echo Hinata 	A glitched entity that represents Hinata Sora's biggest fear.
Echo Shun 	A glitched entity that represents Shun Naomi's biggest fear.
Echo Kaoru 	A glitched entity that represents Kaoru Kohaku's biggest fear, losing Minato and being left on his own. His Echo is shown as a gigantic humanoid with a gray cloak and a half-white, half-black mask. Echo Kaoru is unique among Echoes in that it actually has a Persona - 0 of the Devil Arcana, which has access to both the abilities of Kaoru's and Minato's Personas and can use two turns in battle. As a downside, Echo Kaoru has no shortage of weaknesses thanks to his fusion of his and Minato's Personas.
 	
Noriko KazukoS.E.G.A. No. 6 	
 	
Haru Shun REIFormer S.E.G.A. No. 10 	Optional boss battle. A disgraced Haru, having been kicked out of S.E.G.A. for not notifying them of Club Nintendo's presence and then failing to stop them on his own. His Persona has changed from Zant to The Imprisoned of the same Arcana. "Rei" means "cold", which signifies one of the key changes in this battle - Haru's change of tactics to a more aggressive and ruthless method of combat. With his new tactics, the battle changes to a battle of attrition since Haru will attempt to exploit the party's weaknesses and use them to his advantage.
