Shin Megami Tensei Codexery — Data & Quality

We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.

This is a fiction/fan codex: entries describe an in-universe canon. Our audits check canon and internal consistency — external fact-checking does not apply the way it does on real-subject codexes.

Last full accuracy audit: 2026-08-23 · 30 entries checked · 4 flagged · 11 issues confirmed · 4 corrected · 7 still open

Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Satanael — Satanael is not a fusion of the protagonist's will and the Divine Powers; in Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse, he is the final boss formed from the fusion of the protagonist's will with the power of the Divine Powers, but the protagonist in question is the al

Satanael — Satanael does not appear as a boss fought earlier in the game; he is exclusively the final boss, fought only at the end of the Bonds or Massacre route.

Qliphoth — The claim that 'In Shin Megami Tensei II, the Qliphoth is explicitly depicted as a distinct, inverted world layer parallel to Earth' is factually incorrect; Shin Megami Tensei II does not contain the Qliphoth as a location or concept.

The Metaverse — The Metaverse Navigator app is not installed by Igor or through the Velvet Room's influence; it is installed by the mysterious figure known as 'Igor' in Persona 5, but the app's origin is tied to the game's plot involving the 'Conspiracy' and the 'Holy Grail'

The Metaverse — Time in the Metaverse does not flow differently such that a short period in reality corresponds to a much longer time inside; in Persona 5, time passes at the same rate in both realms—spending hours in a Palace means hours pass in the real world, and the game'

Yggdrasil — Yggdrasil in Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse is a supercomputer/artificial intelligence, not a physical giant tree located in Tokyo.

Yggdrasil — The 'Law' system is operated by Yggdrasil itself, not a separate program.
