Persona 3 Reload seamlessly mixes the dating simulator genre with JRPG elements, which come to full fruition with Social Links. These involve socializing with characters outside your main party and experiencing some charming side stories. One of the Social Links you can pursue in Persona 3 Reload is with Yuko Nishiwaki of the Strength Arcana. Yuko Nishiwaki is the team manager of the Track Team you signed up for. You’ll have to jump through some slight hoops to unlock her Social Link, though.
P.S. This guide will be completely spoiler-free! If you’re in the middle of Yuko’s social link, this guide will only list the answers and avoid spoilers altogether.
How to Complete Yuko’s Social Link (Strength Arcana) in Persona 3 Reload
Each Social Link allows you to interact with characters outside of S.E.E.S., allowing you to experience a fun or emotional side story in the meantime. During each Social Link, you’ll encounter some prompts where you’ll have to respond to a question with a specific answer. Some of these answers will reward you with points that allow you to proceed through a Social Link faster. We’ll list out the best answers for you to pick for each rank so you can run through each Social Link efficiently.
Important Note: You can obtain even more points by having a Persona with a matching Arcana in your party. In other words, if you have a Strength Persona in your arsenal, you’ll be able to go through Yuko’s Social Link even faster.
How to Unlock Yuko’s Social Link in Persona 3 Reload
Yuko’s Social Link is easy to unlock but requires you to unlock the Chariot Social Link first. After getting the Chariot Social Link, you’ll meet Yuko and have the option to ask her to walk home with you. She’ll decline the first time, but as you progress through the Chariot Social Link, she will eventually agree to walk home with you, which will unlock the Social Link.
