Naoto Shirogane

Naoto is a girl with a masculine presentation, known by the media nickname "Detective Prince." Orphaned at a young age and raised by a detective grandfather, she builds a strong reputation by assisting with cases before being sent to Inaba by the prefectural police. Naoto deliberately makes herself bait because she believes the true killer is still at large, survives the Midnight Channel, and confronts resentment over being treated as a child and the male-dominated police culture. Her Persona, Sukuna-Hikona, later becomes Yamato-Takeru.
