It is also known for having an abundance of quality spring water. In the past, there was a papermaking industry. More recently, it has become an industrial area due to multiple companies building factories there. And with the workers bringing their families to live there, more retail areas aimed at younger people were built around Okina Station. Presently, it is known as a trendsetting city and has a population of around 250k.

30 frame

Each month, a new movie will be playing at the Movie Theater, 30 frame. The protagonist can pay ¥1500 to watch a movie with a party member during the afternoon time slot, but only as long as no one is trapped in the TV World. Watching a movie with a party member gives them a level plus three bonus stats depending on which movie is showing. Each party member can only see each movie once. The Investigation Team will text the protagonist and let him know when a movie they are interested in is playing. Taking a party member to see a movie they like will give them +15 Social Link points in addition to the level and bonus stats.

There are two exceptions:

1. The final party member, Naoto, does not have a favored movie
2. Rise can only get a level from the movies, never any bonus stats

Game Appearances

Persona 4

Okina Station appears in multiple Social Links, such as Ai Ebihara's rank 1, but it is not an accessible location.

Persona 4 Golden

The protagonist, Yosuke, and Kanji visit Okina City on June 15th during "Operation: Up Close and Personal".

At first, Yosuke assumes that girls will naturally come to them because of their Scooters. While they stand there and wait for girls, Kanji goes to visit a craft supply store. When he returns, he finds Yosuke and the protagonist still standing there. Their attempt to attract girls was unsuccessful, so Kanji instead suggests they turn this into a competition. The three split up and try talking to girls around the station and try to get their phone numbers. In the end, all of the guys are unsuccessful in their attempts: The protagonist either gets no phone number or receives the number of a girl's boyfriend, Kanji receives a phone number for a paid service, and Yosuke is given Hanako Ohtani's phone number.

After taking three scooter rides on his own around Inaba, the protagonist can ride his scooter to Okina during the afternoon and gains access to the features listed under Gameplay.

Persona 4 Arena Ultimax

In Yosuke Hanamura's ending, he decides to go to college and goes to Okina to get an application for a cram school.

Anime Appearances

Persona 4 The Golden Animation

In episode 2, Yu makes too many plans for Okina. He runs back and forth between "Operation: Up Close and Personal" and going shopping at Croco Fur with the girls.

Trivia

• Due to Inaba being partially based on the city of Fuefuki, Okina is assumed to be based on Kōfu due to its proximity to Fuefuki and the train station looking similar.
