===Persona 3 Reload===
The protagonist can watch DVDs together with other party members in the Iwatodai Dormitory: The activity is introduced on June 16th.
Invitations are timed, and if the prompt is available, the protagonist may choose to spend time with them. The protagonist may only spend time with certain characters, and a specific Social Stat boost is rewarded depending on the character.
With 	Stat
Yukari Takeba 	Charm (♪)
Akihiko Sanada	Courage (♪)
Ken Amada 	Courage (♪)
Koromaru 	Academics (♪)
The activity is one of the various means to unlock allies' combat characteristics, which is achieved through spending time watching DVDs with them three times.
===Persona 5===
The protagonist can rent DVDs at Rental Shop Scarlet on Shibuya's Central Street, having to pay a small fee for each rental. The protagonist needs to have a CRT Television (and a DVD Player, which comes with the TV when bought) in their attic in order to watch them. All DVDs require two time slots to be finished. Every time a DVD is watched, it will reward them with two or three points of a specific Social Stat, with the exception of Knowledge.
The protagonist needs to return each separate DVD seven days after its renting. If the protagonist returns a movie late, he will be charged with additional fees. For every day per DVD, regardless of whether the protagonist has any free time or not, ¥300 will be added to the overall. However, the first two late fees will be waived by customer service.
One strategy to avoid additional fees is to watch them during missions, as the protagonist is almost always free during that time. Otherwise, it is recommended to watch them as early as possible. Paying attention to story cues can help as well, as school and the Phantom Thieves' agenda might help forecast when and for how long they'll be busy.

===Persona 5 Royal===
In Persona 5 Royal, the rental system has been replaced: the protagonist now has to pay for an annual subscription, with the price of ¥4,800. Doing so will grant him access to all the DVDs for the rest of the game, but only one DVD can be rented at a time.DVD鑑賞及びレンタルショップ, ペルソナ5ザ･ロイヤル総合攻略Wiki P5R攻略 Wiki* In addition, the availability dates for the original DVDs have been shifted, and each DVD can only give two points.
If the protagonist reads the book The Craft of Cinema, from then on he'll gain a bonus stat point when watching DVDs.
