Working Part-Time in Yokohama While Trying to Get into Tokyo University

After his period of protective observation ended, Akira Kurusu returned from Tokyo to his hometown of Yokohama. He clenched his fist. He had to get into Tokyo University, or he'd lose his girlfriend. He'd only just walked through the school gates with his commuter bag when the school exploded. Yes, it actually exploded.

With no choice but to go home and study, Akira continued his preparations while working part-time. But had his hometown always been like this? Why was it completely different from what he remembered? What was this, an Ability? That couldn't be right! Weren't people supposed to be ordinary?

Akira, who had been diligently juggling school and work, was suddenly told that he had an Ability too. Akira Kurusu: This is wrong! Everyone else's Abilities are so cool, but mine is just a lousy extra-dimensional commuter bag?

So it went, with Akira stuck with his lame Ability until an acute case of iron poisoning (getting shot) made him discover his true Ability. With a cry of sodium aluminate, his familiar Persona appeared behind him. Akira couldn't help complaining: If they'd just told him sooner that this was how you summoned a Persona outside Tokyo, he could have been prepared. Other protagonists got beginner's guides. Why was this the treatment he got?

Akira Kurusu waved goodbye without looking back. At last, he'd gotten into Tokyo University and reunited with his boyfriend. Farewell to this city, where even minors have to work themselves to the bone.

A crossover with Bungo Stray Dogs and Persona 5, with cameos and jokes from other anime. Lighthearted and full of banter.
