Strengthening your bonds with others is a crucial part of Persona 3 Reload, so hanging out with your friends and classmates will be necessary for attaining the ultimate power. Here’s a full guide with the best answers for Chihiro, the Justice Social Link in Persona 3 Reload.
How To Start the Chihiro Social Link in Persona 3 Reload
The Justice Social Link can be started on 5/23 at its earliest. You meet Chihiro after you start the Emperor Social Link automatically on 4/27, and she’ll hang around the Student Council Room (right in front of your classroom) on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Speak with her on three different occasions and give her the following answers:
- Day 1 – I just wanted to talk…
- Day 2 – I’m a guy.
- Day 3 – Let’s hang out.
Once you do this, wait until the Midterm Exams are over on 5/23, and Chihiro will be waiting in front of your classroom. If you’ve already given the responses, she’ll accept your invite to hang out, which starts the Chihiro Social Link. She’s available on the same schedule as before (Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays next to the Student Council Room), except next to exams and holidays.
Best Answers for Chihiro’s Social Link in Persona 3 Reload
Just like with other Social Links, you need to give Chihiro the proper answers to advance her Social Link quickly. Always bring a Justice Persona in your stock (Angel or Archangel are good options) to get extra points out of your answers and complete the Social Link quicker. If you see the “I feel like I might get closer to Chihiro soon…” message when speaking with her, it means the Social Link will level up during your next hangout.

Rank 10 is automatic, so you can pick whichever answers you want. If you want to squeeze some extra points from Chihiro without dating her, you can choose the Romance route in Rank 5 and reject her later during Rank 9 with no consequences. Except for breaking her heart, of course. But you’ll still reach Rank 10 later regardless, so don’t worry about it. There are some consequences if you date multiple girls at once, though.

Chihiro Social Link Rewards
Completing the Justice Social Link will give you the Manga key item, which allows you to fuse Melchizedek, the ultimate Justice Persona once you reach Level 66. This item is carried over through multiple playthroughs. Chihiro is an early Social Link, so you can potentially finish it way ahead of the point where you could fuse it. You’ll just need to be patient before fusing the Persona. Completing all Social Links also will allow you to fuse Orpheus Telos at the end of the game.
And that’s all you need to know about the Chihiro Social Link in Persona 3 Reload.
Persona 3 Reload is available now.
