An anime adaptation of Persona 4, a 2008 video game created by Atlas. A young man named Yu Narukami moves from Tokyo to Inaba to stay with his uncle and cousin while his parents are away on business. However, after serial murders shake up the sleepy town, things get crazier when he discovers an urban legend known as the "Midnight Channel" — a mysterious TV channel that only appears at midnight on rainy days while the viewer is alone, and finds himself being drawn into the TV screen. Yu, accompanied by his friends explore another world inside the TV, which seems to have a connection to the ongoing murders and while inside each of them awaken a Persona, a manifestation of their 'other selves' whose power they can summon to fight the monstrous shadows that inhabit the TV world. The murders, the Midnight Channel, the world inside the TV, and Personas, Yu and his friends fight to figure out how they're connected and seek the truth behind everything before it's too late.
