What To Prioritize In September
In September, you'll want to focus on getting to know your party members more and deepening your bonds with friends at school. These bonds will help you better understand your teammates and the people around you.
Mechanically, this will help grant your party members new abilities and your other bonds will strengthen the experience of new Personas you fuse of the corresponding Arcana.
Don't forget to go to Tartarus and rescue people, specifically Bunkichi, or you won't be able to progress with the Hierophant Arcana.
