Does the main character die in persona 3? - Answers

Yes minato dies in the arms of the girl with the red headphones NO he does not die in the arms of the girl with the red headphones for one. He died in the arms of Aegis, the android who sealed part of Death inside of him when he was a kid. He isn't even FULLY dead anyway, If he was fully dead, then Elizabeth and Aegis wouldn't be trying to find a way to bring him back since it would be impossible. Yes he did use up all of his life to seal Nyx but if you play The Answer you will find he is shown as a statue, bound to the door between Nyx and humanity. It is also revealed that he is simply trying to keep the main threat in The Answer from bringing Nyx to the world and bringing about The Fall. As for the girl with the RED HEADPHONES. She is simply a female version of the male protagonist in Persona 3 Portable for the PSP. She suffers the same fate, only difference being on the second playthrough, the player can choose whether she dies in the arms of Aegis, Akihiko, or Shinjiro (if you save him from dying on the day he does)
