0.0  - UPDATE HISTORY:

VERSION 1.0a:  April 10, 2001
        - Added necessary changes from Archaeopteryx.  Thanks, God!  LOL~!!!  ^^;;

VERSION 1.0:  April 10, 2001
        - Created the "PERSONA 2 Eternal Punishment Affinity Reading" Guide!  This Guide is
          about 80% completed.  10% of it goes to finding out what does each Satomi Sister
          says when you got them as an Affinity, and the other 10% for missing Japanese
          names listed as ???.  (Too lazy to replay the Game over again to get them.  ^~ )

1.0  - INTRODUCTION:
        I always wanted to contribute to the PERSONA community since I am a very big Fan of
the series.  I played almost every known Megami Tensei series, but my main favorites was
the PERSONA series and Majin Tensei II:  Spiral Nemesis.  ^^;;  I also own Revelations:
Persona, PERSONA 2 Innocent Sin, PERSONA 2 Eternal Punishment (Japanese and American
versions), and Devilsummoner Soul Hackers (PlayStation version).  ^^;;  Since I didn't know
what to contribute, I thought about typing up an Affinity Reading Guide.  I dunno about any
of you, but I do love this Affinity Reading.  Since my Eriko Kirishima blood flowing in my
veins (We're both born on September 21st!  ^~ ), it's natural for me to love mysticism.
Even before I knew PERSONA, I was always fascinated with the stars.  ^^;;  So here's
something born out of that love and I hope you would enjoy it.  Yeah, it's nothing
informational, but at least with the use of the Affinity Readings, it'll benefit you in a
tiny bit.  ^^;;  Especially if you learn to use them wisely.
        Well, I hope you love this Guide and please let me know your feedbacks on it!  So
feel free to e-mail me any questions, praises, comments, or anything at all to me at
enigmaopoeia@hotmail.com.  Do keep your flames in the trash where they belong.  And thank
you, and happy reading!  ^^;;

2.0  - NAME CHANGES:
        Do note that all I will write here are the names used in the Japanese version since
I usually don't like the name changes done in the American version.  *sighs*  -_-;;  So

won't go, "What/Who the heck is that???"  ^^;; :

        I'm sorry that I kept the names from the Japanese version because they are the real
names and I tend to go with the originals than anything.  The only time the American
version is used for the quotes of the characters with minor corrections because the quotes
are very well translated from the Japanese version.  ^^;;  Though there are some quotes
that has to change in the American version such as I believe Trish "tells you to goto
Hell" in the Japanese version whereelse she says "Money IS the key" in the American
version.  Umm, okay . . .  o_O;;  If I can read Japanese very well, I would love to
contribute the American and Japanese versions of each quotes.  But I don't, which sucks.
If anyone can read Japanese very well and can send me the Roumaji of each character's
quote, I'll be VERY greatful~!  ^^;;  Heh heh . . .

3.0  - PURPOSE OF AFFINITY READING:
        If you are wondering why would anybody bother with getting an Affinity Reading is
really simple.  With the power of the Affinity Reading, it can help you.  *wonders if she
sounds Sumaru Genie'ish enough*  There are three reasons in which the effects of an
Affinity Reading can benefit you~!:

REASON #1.)  Discounts in your favorite stores!
REASON #2.)  More damage done in your FUSION SPELLS!  (Read:  KILL BOSSES FASTER!!!)
REASON #3.)  That warm fuzzy feeling you get when you are compatible with your favorite
             character!  =}  If they're your least favorite, umm, LET'S POSITIVE THINKING!

        Well, if this isn't a good enough reason to get yourself an Affinity Reading.  I'll
have to do it by other methods~!  *grabs Maya's stereo and starts to play the "Satomi
Tadashi's Pharmacy's Song"*  THIS SHOULD BRAINWASH YOU INTO GETTIN' AFFINITY READINGS~!
BWA HA HA HA~!!!  IT ALWAYS WORK 110% OF THE TIME~!!!  >=}
        . . .  Umm, you can ignore me now.  *walks away sheepishly*

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
4.0  - BINARY CODE:
        Though you may not know, but the Binary Code is actually used for these Affinity
Readings!  There is a certain value given for each question.  How I figured out the amount
of points distributed for each question is to count up the total amount of questions given
for each question.  It is better shown in Section 4.0:  QUESTIONS LIST.  ^^;;
        If you answered "Yes" to a question, you are given a certain amount of points
depending on what numerial question it is.  But if you answer "No" to any question, the
value given is zero points.  Every time you have answered a "Yes" to the six questions,
just keep adding up the values until you get the final amount of points in which it'll
result to one of the sixty-three characters listed total in the Affinity Reading.
        Here are the values for each question in the Binary Code.:

QUESTION #1:  Yes = 32 points | No = 00 points.
QUESTION #2:  Yes = 16 points | No = 00 points.
QUESTION #3:  Yes = 08 points | No = 00 points.
QUESTION #4:  Yes = 04 points | No = 00 points.
QUESTION #5:  Yes = 02 points | No = 00 points.
QUESTION #6:  Yes = 01 point  | No = 00 points.

        Here's an example to help you out:  I'm going to aim to get Lisa Silverman in my
Affinity Reading, and we do know that her total value is 37 points.  So looking up from the
value of each question above.  In order to get 37 points, we would have to answer "Yes" to
questions #1, #4, and #6.  [32 + 04 + 01 = 37 points.]  So the order of the questions I
would have to answer to get Lisa would be:  Y-N-N-Y-N-Y.
        It is a very simple and easy process to learn.  =}

depending on the answer to the first question, and so on, it would affect the outcome of

                  My singing calls forth warriors (musical note)...

                  So you have affinity with me (musical note)...
                  That is because you have a beautiful (musical note)...
                  tone echoing in your heart (musical note)...

                  I love this, and the heart's holder (musical note)...

                  On what grounds are you basing that?
                  Do you have any concrete evidence?

                  Fortune telling?  Affinity Readings?
                  From that you claim we're compatible...?
                  ...What a groundless...!

                  I'm sorry, but I do not believe you.
                  It's just pure nonsense to measure

                  If you're still saying that we have
                  affinity, then bring some hard evidence.
                  Even a thesis study will suffice.

                  taste in choosing me.

                  If you want to be the baby's breath
                  that enhances the rose's beauty,

                  Sometimes I have mine done.  If my
                  soulmate is somewhere...Just kidding.

                  Nice to meet you.

                  Meeting between people are such marvels...
                  Out of thousands...millions of people, how
                  high were the odds of us meeting...?

                  It must be a miracle close to both of us.
                  But the bond that creates that miracle
                  sometimes changes fate.

                  Bond...huh...?

                  Do...Do you speak the truth?

                  N...No...  Since I took up this tone,
                  up until the rising of the last moon,
                  no one has dared to speak those words.

   QUOTE       :  Affinity...I see.
                  There is such a thing as affinity.  You
                  decide who your friends are unconsciously.

                  However, just like you, everyone has many
                  different faces within their heart.  What's
                  being displayed is only one.

                  That is why you should not decide who is
                  bad or good based on compatiblity...
                  Everyone has a good side in them.

                  Having said that,
                  do you and I really have good affinity?
                  Let's get to know each other slowly.

                  However, just like you, everyone has many
                  different faces within their heart.  What's
                  being displayed is only one.

                  That is why you should not decide who is
                  bad or good based on compatiblity...
                  Everyone has a good side in them.

                  Having said that,

useful in Affinity Readings.  ^^;; :

-25/Master - Get discounts on the best weapons out there.  ^~

USEFUL       =

               of your party, you can get a special Contact with them.
  ANSWER #01:  LIE, LIE, LIE~!!!  Even the Sumaru Genie itself said there is no special
               Contacts if the results comes out to be one of your party members.  ^^;;
               So let's end that Rumor.  *tells Chief Todoroki to get rid of that Rumor*

  ANSWER #03:  It is explained better in Section 3.0  - BINARY CODE.  ^^;;

QUESTION #04:  Is this Affinity Reading Guide *really* completed?
  ANSWER #04:  You bet your big bucks it is.  ^^;;  It took me a total of three days to
               type all of this up, and voila -- here is the results~!

QUESTION #05:  What is the list of people without an Affinity Reading?
  ANSWER #05:  You're just in luck~!  Here is the list of people without an Affinity
               Reading that I have noticed:

01.)  All of the Personae - Might've been too hard to include in all of them.  o_O;;
02.)  All of the Villagespeople - Like we really care, huh?  ^~
03.)  Anna Yoshizaka - WHY NOT!?!?  SHE'S FREAKIN' AWESOME~!!  >=(
04.)  Noriko Katayama - Aww, she's so cute.  ^^;;  I like her a lot.  Too bad.  =(
05.)  Editor Head Mizuno - Really, who would WANT to get her???  o_O;;
06.)  Shopkeeper - Why not, she was named after a Developer!
07.)  JOKER (Jun Kurosu) - I think it'll be pretty awesome.  ^^;;
08.)  JOKER (Tatsuya Sudou) - I think it would've been to neat.  ^^;;
09.)  Tatsuzou Sudou - Ugh, I wouldn't want to have an Affinity with him.  >_<
10.)  Demon Painter - HE IS KAZUMA KANEKO~!!!  ^^;;  WHY~!?!?!?!?
11.)  ??? Sugawara - Wow, I got an Affinity with an idiot who wants to be immortal!  >v<
12.)  Youichi Makimura - Wouldn't that be funny?  Urara would go nuts.  ^~
13.)  Matsuoka - Oh wow, I got a Jay Leno-lookalike Butler!  >v<
14.)  Shunsuke Fujii - Umm, why not?  o_O;;
15.)  Haseem ??? - Oh yeah, get more items out of Map Collecting!  Heh heh . . .  =}
16.)  Akinari Kashihara - Why can't we do Jun's father -- umm, he's okay . . .  o_O;;
17.)  Junko Kurosu-Kashihara - She's so beautiful.  Argh, I wanna Affinity with her~!
18.)  Makoto "Stalker" ??? - NO WAY!!  WHO WANTS TO HAVE HIM~!?!?!
19.)  Maya Amano - Why not get an Affinity Reading with yourself?  ^~
20.)  Principal Hanya - Heh, so what if he's dead.  ^~  I wanna Affinity~!!!  LOL~!
21.)  Nyarltholoep - Heh, wouldn't that be just da bomb?
22.)  The Shadows - Oh yeah, I'm compatible with Shadow Katsuya!  *swoons*

               I hope I'm not missing anyone~!  ^^;;

QUESTION #06:  I heard that with an Affinity Reading with a Shopskeeper, there is a change
               in the effects on the Treatment and/or the Foods you used/ate?
  ANSWER #06:  That's false, I even tried it myself when I went into GATTEN SUSHI and tried
               their Sushi as well as going into kaori and trying out if their Aromatherapy
               would change in some matter.  And, nope, it's still the same!

QUESTION #07:  Seriously, there is a 20% discount??
  ANSWER #07:  Yep-o~!  ^^;;  Let's use this as an example:  Parabellum would sell a weapon
               for around 76800 Yen without an Affinity Reading.  But after you came back
               with an Affinity Reading with the Bartender, he would now sell it for 61440
               Yen.  So you would use this in order to get the percentage of the discount.:
               Original price * Percentage = Difference
               We should know that the original price was 76800 Yen, and then we'll times
               it by 0.20.  So we got:  76800 * 0.20 = ???.  The answer should be 15360.
               And the difference of 76800 and 61440 Yen is 15360 Yen, right?  So we know
               that there is a 20% discount!  ^^;;  Banzai banzai~!

QUESTION #08:  If I tried to sell an item to a person I have an Affinity Reading with,
               would the price for that item would be sold for twice as much?
  ANSWER #08:  Sorry, but the amount of the price for selling an item is the same with or
               without an Affinity Reading.  -_-;;

QUESTION #09:  Are you sure there is an increased amount of damage done in FUSION SPELLS if
               you are compatible with one of your party members?
  ANSWER #09:  I am not lying.  ^^;;  I have tested it out myself.  So I went onward into
               Kasugayama High School and battled an innocent Ratatosk there.  ^^;;  I
               wanted to do a cheap Fusion Spell as an example.  So I casted Ryuhi Tensho
               which is Wind + Wind.  So I let Maya cast Garudyne while Katsuya casted Maha
               Garudyne.  I was doing around 1247 damage to her.  So then I left Kas High
               and went to the Sumaru Genie, and got myself an Affinity Reading with
               Katsuya.  Then I head back to Kas High and fought the Ratatosk again.  Did
               the same ole' Ryuhi Tensho again -- and guess what?  Instead of doing 1247
               damage to her.  I was whippin' out around 2424 damage to her!  >=}  BIG
               IMPROVEMENT!  So I cannot recommend enough to get an Affinity Reading with
               the strongest Spellcaster in the Game (Usually Tatsuya) and then fight a
               Boss battle.  Even I told my sister who couldn't beat Was Sugawara to have
               an Affinity Reading with Tatsuya.  After she did and battled Was Sugawara,
               her usual of 850 damage done by Meltdown was now doing 1140 damage, thanks
               to the Affinity Reading.  ^^;;  And of course, she killed Was Sugawara soon
               enough.  ^~  Heh heh . . .  Remember, Maya does not need to be part of the
               Fusion in order to deal huge damage to a monster!  If you have an Affinity
               with Baofu, Baofu's damage dealt in FUSION SPELLS would be increased with
               or without Maya.  Such as you can still deal huge damage with a Fusion
               between Baofu + Urara + Nanjou, but only if you got an Affinity with Baofu,
               Urara, or Nanjou.  ^^;;

QUESTION #10:  How do I get these Affinity Readings?
  ANSWER #10:  They are all from our friend, the Rumormonger Barkeeper from Jolly Roger at
               Konan Ward.  ^^;;  In order to start the Affinity Readings, just talk to
               the Rumormonger Barkeeper and he would say this.:

               The Sumaru Genie seems to have started
               Affinity Readings.
               Good or bad, it really comes true.

               At that time, goto Kuzunoha Detective Agency and spread that Rumor with
               Chief Todoroki.  You would open the Affinity Reading command at Sumaru
               Genie.  But though the number of people you can have an Affinity with may
               seem big, they are mainly composed of the Satomi Sisters.  That is when the
               Sumaru Genie needs to "power up"!  ^^;;  You should get that Rumor later
               in the Game, usually when Tatsuya just joined your party or somewhere a
               little bit after that.  Then talk to the Rumormonger Barkeeper and he would
               say this.:

               Did the Sumaru Genie improve her skills?
               There are more people getting into
               Affinity Readings.  Why don't you try?

               Then at that time (after you spread the Rumor, of course!), the usual line
               of Satomi Sisters appearing on the list would be now changed with familiar
               names such as Eikichi, Lisa, and etc.  Then that is all.  ^^;;  You can now
               do Affinity Readings as much as you like~!  Hurrah for discounts, better
               damage, and warm fuzzies~!  LOL~!  ^^;;

QUESTION #11:  If I got an Affinity Reading with the Oba Chan, would the cost for a
               Mansearch would be cheaper, and I will get more of a reward?
  ANSWER #11:  Not in this lifetime.  -_-;;  At least be happy that at least she DOES pay
               ya a lot for doing Mansearches.  I find it to be a great pasttime~!  ^^;;

QUESTION #12:  If I have an Affinity with the Count, and I gave him a SPELL CARD to
               duplicate, would I get anything extra?
  ANSWER #12:  Noppers.  He would only give you a discount at the BUY CARDS command.

QUESTION #13:  What are the pros and cons of the regular Affinity Reading and the powered
               up Affinity Readings?
  ANSWER #13:  The pros of the regular Affinity Readings is that if you get an Affinity
               Reading with a Satomi Sister, you can get discounts at Satomi Tadashi.  The
               cons to the regular Affinity Readings is that there isn't much of a
               selection of characters to get an Affinity with.  The pros to the powered up
               Affinity Reading is that all of the Satomi Sisters would be replaced with
               characters who plays a main role in the Game whether they be playable or
               non-playable characters.  The cons is that all of the Satomi Sisters are
               gone thus no discounts in the Satomi Tadashi pharmacy stores.  =(

QUESTION #14:  Are these Affinity Readings really important to actually proceed further
               into the Game?
  ANSWER #14:  Not at all!  They are there for the same reasons as how the restaurants are
               their for:  To help benefit.  These I found to be a lot better than the
               restaurants because the Affinity Readings lasts forever until you change
               your Affinity to another character.  ^^;;  Also, who wouldn't want to deal
               huge damage to Demons/Bosses with FUSION SPELLS powered by Affinity
               Readings?  ^~  *wink wink, nudge nudge*

QUESTION #15:  If I got an Affinity Reading with a Rumormonger, would they give me twice
               as much Rumors?
  ANSWER #15:  Nada, buddy.  -_-;;  They would give you a Rumor as normally.

QUESTION #16:  If I get an Affinity Reading with Eikichi Mishina and then I battle Metal
               Eikichi, would I deal more damage on him?
  ANSWER #16:  I don't think so.  Most of the time you get Affinity Readings with the
               characters who are majorily focus in the Game, you would only get a warm
               fuzzy feeling.  The only time these Affinity Readings are useful is when
               you get an Affinity with a Shopskeeper (Kaori, Reiko, Kankichi, etc.) or
               with a party member (Urara, Baofu, Katsuya, etc.).

QUESTION #17:  If I get an Affinity Reading with the Shop Head of Muu Continent, would
               the Exchange Rate from Yen to Coins would decrease?
  ANSWER #17:  Nope, the only 20% discount the Shop Head would give is on his prizes,
               not on the Exchange Rate.  Sorry.

QUESTION #18:  If I get an Affinity Reading with Igor, Belladonna, or Nanashi, wouldn't
               the Persona I summon would take less amount of Tarot Cards to summon or
               would their statistics be increased in some form?
  ANSWER #18:  Nah, I tried it myself.  Gettin' an Affinity Reading with any of the
               VELVET ROOM people are just for decoration.  Nothing special happens.

QUESTION #19:  Hey, you listed that this person has no change if you have an Affinity
               Reading with him/her/it.  But when I tried it, I found something that has
               been changed!  What do I do?
  ANSWER #19:  Well, it would be kind enough if you e-mailed me what has been changed with
               a reason why you think so.  Then I'll go and confirm it myself.  ^^;;  I
               should thank you guys in advance if any of you found a change.  ^~

QUESTION #20:  How can you tell the difference between each Satomi Sister?
  ANSWER #20:  You're on your own, dude.  ^^;;  My sister and I thought there was a way to
               tell them apart, but there isn't.  Just do a "eenie-meenie-minee-mo" and
               pray to Philemon that you got it right!  ^^;;  Or better yet, use this
               Guide to help you -- you cheater you.  ^~  LOL~!  J/K~!

QUESTION #21:  Why are there seven Satomi Sisters, but #3 and #4 are missing?
  ANSWER #21:  They weren't made to be in the final cut of the Game!  LOL~!!  ^^;;  I
               DUNNO~!

QUESTION #22:  But I need help outside of Affinity Readings!
  ANSWER #22:  Then my Guide is not for you, brave soul.  Venture onward to Guides by Jack
               Spade or Archaeopteryx or Sasoriza or Hyral.  ^^;;  They are more in depth
               with the Game than I am.  I'm just writing an Affinity Reading Guide here,
               sheesh.  =P  Can't we just stop this senseless . . . oops, wrong phrase!

QUESTION #23:  Why do you call the Sumaru Genie an "it"?
  ANSWER #23:  I dunno, by the way the Sumaru Genie speaks.  I think it's probably a man or
               a masculine woman or only Philemon would know.  o_O;;

QUESTION #24:  Are you usually this hyper?
  ANSWER #24:  Hell, I hate to read monotonous, boring Guides.  ^^;;  I love it when they
               include some humor in it.  That's why I love to write Guides, at least if I
               can get a smile out of one person.  It makes me happy.  =}  I'm just tryin'
               to be different than most Authors out there.  But I'm not saying that
               informational Guides are all boring -- there are some that are really well
               written and being a bit "humorous" would kill the mood of the Guide!  >_<
               I just want to have a fine line between funny and serious.  ^~

QUESTION #25:  What does enigmaopoeia means?
  ANSWER #25:  "The rebirth of mystery".  ^^;;  No, it's not a name of a hidden Persona,
               though I'll be flattered if I was.  ^~

QUESTION #26:  Tell me a bit about yourself?
  ANSWER #26:  Well, my handle is enigmaopoeia, but you can call me enig for short.  By the
               time I wrote this Guide, I am a 19 years old female.  ^^;;  I love Video
               Games, typing, illustrating, and chatting, but NOT AS MUCH as I do with
               sleeping and eating.  >=}  My favorite Video Games series to collect are
               PERSONA, pop'n music, Bust A Move/Groove, JUSTICE GAKUEN, and the Mario
               Bros. series.  ^^;;  Umm, I'm usually known for being lame.  =}  And the
               person I am most like in the Affinity Reading chart is the Rumor-Lovin'
               Bartender.  =}  Yeah, go me~!  Oh yeah, as for PERSONA:  My favorite females
               are Lisa, Urara, and Ixquic.  My least favorite females are Chief Head
               Mizuno and the Aesthetician.  My favorite males are Katsuya, Tatsuya, and
               Eikichi.  ^^;;  And my least favorite male is Ginji.  ICK~!  *bashes him*
