Kanji Tatsumi
Kanji is seen with Naoto Shirogane.
Naoto was also able to deduce that Kanji would be the next victim, and tries to seek clues by speaking to him.
During that time, Naoto expresses interest in the case, which Kanji mistakes as Naoto being interested in him.
This results in Kanji becoming shocked and conflicted about his feelings towards Naoto, and more importantly, his sexuality.
The Investigation Team attempts to interview Kanji, to no avail.
He is eventually kidnapped and put in the Midnight Channel.
Kanji's Midnight Channel dungeon is the Steamy Bathhouse.
His Shadow is a mostly nude version of himself surrounded in a bed of roses while holding two Mars symbols.
It represents his second thoughts regarding his true sexuality and being unsure of the opposite sex, as the sensitive side under his rough exterior is often unappreciated and even ridiculed by girls.
Kanji's Shadow is made manifest due to his fear of rejection by either sex.
His Shadow is also accompanied by two other Shadows, one named 'Nice Guy' and the other named 'Tough Guy'; possibly referring to the common homosexual stereotypes of a feminine man, and the other a masculine man.
Nice Guy will boost Shadow Kanji's stats in battle, while Tough Guy will deal damage to the protagonist's party.
The party manages to defeat Kanji's Shadow and Kanji accepts it, obtaining his Persona.
He then tells the party it doesn't matter what his sexual orientation is, because he was ultimately scared of being rejected.
After he joins the protagonist's crew, his sexual orientation is occasionally questioned due to the form of his Shadow, mainly by Yosuke Hanamura.
He is also kissed by a "drunk" Teddie when the gang visits a club at Port Island as part of the "King's Game", a mix of Simon Says and Truth or Dare.
Even though Kanji displays interest in Naoto, he occasionally looks away from her due to shyness.
He was both impressed and excited when Naoto enters the Miss Yasogami High pageant (despite her being forced), but is a bit disappointed when she skips out on the second portion of the contest (where she would have had to wear a swimsuit).
Kanji's Persona, Take-Mikazuchi, which evolves to Rokuten Maoh, specialize in electricity skills and strong physical attacks along with possessing two skills to buff defense and attacks.
