Social Link/Saori Hasegawa

This article covers information about the Hermit Social Link, Saori Hasegawa, including events featured in Persona 3 Portable. Exclusive to the female protagonist's route, the Hermit Social Link in the male protagonist's route is instead Maya. 
The female protagonist starts Saori's Social Link on May 8th, after she is volunteered to join either the health committee or library committee. Reaching Rank 2 of Saori's Social Link is necessary to start President Tanaka's Social Link. She can be found during the day either in front of the library on the second floor of Gekkoukan, or in front of the Nurse's Office on the first floor, depending on which committee the female protagonist has joined.
Saori gives the female protagonist PA Recording when the Social Link is maxed, which enables the fusion of Arahabaki.
