Missed Calls

Presumably Rise was simply kidnapped and thrown into the TV by the same guys that the Malevolent Entity was controlling that kidnapped Labrys and chucked her in, but I'm just not sure what the time frame was. I guess it had to be after Labrys and Teddie because Labrys had to be in there for Shadow Labrys to exist, and I would assume Teddie had to be in there for General Teddie to exist. So after Labrys and Teddie but perhaps before Kanji?
The original comic here was just Yu saying “No” and then turning away with his arms crossed, implying he was going to start giving Rise the silent treatment (which of course wouldn't work out very well…she's used to it)
So I had some fun coming up with these phone contacts. Now to be clear on a few things, this is a special folder in Yu's phone specifically to be like a little black book for him. Women he thinks he's got a shot with.
Several names were cut from this list, including Ayane, Chie, Kanji?, an actual entry named Nun YaBuisness, and if I'd gone all the way down to the Ys there would have been Yukiko A and Yukiko B to hint at her bi-polar nature.
But to go into the names that are on this list, I really wanted to have Aika and Marie have some sort of mention in this comic (its pretty much why this entire comic was re-done) Noriko is of course, Miss Kashiwagi, and Crazy Boyfriend Chick is a reference those of you who've played Golden might recognize. I also find it hilarious that he already has Mitsuru's number, presumably she gave it to him out of pity during their off screen fight where he started crying. Of course this is Mitsuru, so it probably just leads to her companies mail room.
I had a lot of fun with the phone contacts. So much so that I'm tempted to do a full list of all characters just to see how Yu refers to some of these people.
Oh, and to make one final thing clear, he's not necessarily texting Marie, he's just scrolling through names right now. I just wanted her name to be the one that's highlighted.

I never thought that General Teddie was specifically the result of Teddie being thrown in since he was just Shadow Labrys in disguise. The idea being that the P4 cast would be more hurt if they thought one of their close friends was forcing them to fight like that. It is possible she decided to take on the guise of General Teddie when he entered and was captured though since it meant he wouldn't be around to contradict her impersonation. I can only assume whoever was helping from the TV side coached Shadow Labrys in the best way to enact her "revenge" since Labrys had no knowledge of any of the P4 cast. Rise getting thrown into the TV world is one of the dangling plot points. At first glance you'd think she had to be thrown in by who ever stole Labrys in the real world on orders from the being in the TV world. That doesn't quite make sense though as they state at the end they don't possess a persona and only persona users are capable of entering the TV world.
