Well in the comic it said “anime”, and the main guy in Persona 3’s name is “Minato” but the female version’s name is “Minako”, and they basically summon demons. I thought it was a reference.

(2/2)Handplates!W.D. Gaster, as the royal scientist, has to step up to the plate. It's easy to capture them, blue magic makes it a piece of cake. He was ordered to take their soul, but the strange power that they have... Could it be directed, and could they use this to their advantage? He experiments on them to find out. The reader is submissive, as they understand why it's being done. Gaster slowly grows closer to them, until it can't be ignored any longer. He has a crush on them, what happens?

Is this a persona reference, though?

the only ones i’ll take out of this group are Fresh-Sans, Tale-Gaster, & ADT-Chara, however one of our other Mods takes Error-Sans & Ink-Sans! - M.M.

Underfresh-Sans:

It’s almost inhumane, how quickly he finds out, & how little time it takes for him to find their killer. & at first, it doesn’t even seem like he’s mad. But then he starts to talk. Well now, friend pal chum homie palarino home-slice friendo home-boy that was not a b r i g h t i d e a. He usually hates having to cut loose in any sense other than the radical relaxation type, but in this case, just for them, buddy--he’ll take the plunge. So! He hopes they’re ready, because they’re about to have a totally untubular time.

Undertale-W.D. Gaster:

It doesn’t even register at first once the news reaches him. He’s so deep in his work that it has to be repeated several times for it to actually get through to him--but most of those repeats are because he just...can’t get it. They’re what? ...They were what? Needless to say it doesn’t take him long at all to track down their murderer & show them what the true meaning of “scientific curiosity” really means. He’s always wondered what the limits of the human SOUL were, & now it looks like he’s got the chance to f i n d o u t.

ADT-Chara:

a real-time dating simulator game that takes place in an undisclosed location in korea, developed by cheritz (creators of Dandelion and Nameless, also dating games), and made by a team of around 28 people.

mystic messenger has you, the player, enter the story after a strange unknown person sends you to an address to return a lost phone after you downloaded an app onto your own. you wind up in what is supposed to be a secure, secret, chatroom meant to help organize parties for the RFA, a charity foundation that raises funds for those in need.

over the course of eleven days in real time, you’ll get scripted texts, phonecalls, and chatroom messages from the members of the RFA, choosing a favorite to romance as you do in dating sim games. since it’s aimed towards women, sadly, it only uses she/her pronouns.

the game stands out by having surprisingly good writing and an incredible depth to its characters. as the days progress, more and more gets revealed of the RFA, how you were led there, and what kind of people the members are. each route reveals its own part of the mystery, and the ability to “call” characters to learn more ups the replay value greatly.

the game is also, shockingly, free to play. while you can purchase hourglasses, a form of in-game currency used to unlock bonuses, missed chatrooms, gain access to future days in advance, i have managed to get through three entire routes without spending a dime since cheritz so kindly gives users bonus glasses with each update they do. i do suggest that people who can invest in some of their neat bonuses tho! cheritz offers vip packages (for a big price) that allow players to make unlimited calls, use special features, and get a load of physical merch and a book that gives bonus info on characters.

be warned tho, while the game has a rating of 12+, it covers lots of sensitive topics and at the very least implies several types of violence, including but not limited to:

• suicide• physical, sexual, and emotional abuse• frequent unreality (fourth wall breaks)• sexism and minor discussion of sexism• domestic violence (towards children and adults)• animal death• depression and other types of mental illness

of note is also that the game involves lots of sexual implications, as such i personally recommend it as 18+.

overall, without spoiling too much, i feel that the game manages to be astonishingly good at creating an emotional investment and in establishing well-written complex characters for you to care for. even when it comes to the sensitive things mentioned above, the characters remain incredibly empathetic. it also manages to be very progressive, with a confirmed bisexual character and a route to date a woman (keep in mind this is a dating game aimed towards women so!!).
