Canon overview
Reception and meta
Fanon and tropes
Persona 3 fan works tend to portray Makoto Yuki and Kotone Shiomi as fraternal twins, usually in Third-Option Adaptations that portray them both as the leader of S.E.E.S. Works that don't involve the two still tend to portray them like this, with the usual explanation being that one of them died in the car accident that killed their parents or that both survived the car accident but were separated for years due to complications from Japanese social and child services. Even with Kotone's surprise appearance in Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth heavily implying that Makoto and her are actually the same person, this idea still has a lot of staying power within the fanbase. Worth noting is that the stage musical, The Weird Masquerade, uses a very similar setup, the only difference being that the two MCs are noted to be brother and sister (with the absent sibling being the one who perished in the accident alongside their parents) but without any further clarification as to whether they're twins.
On occasion, works that run with the twin/sibling angle will rename the male MC from Makoto Yuki to Sakuya Shiomi, following the lead of the aforementioned stage musical (which is also where Kotone's Canon Name stems from). Other fan works which feature them as twins/siblings but use the manga adaptation's name for Makoto (Minato Arisato) instead give Kotone the name Minako, a popular Fan Nickname for the female MC before her Canon Name was revealed, in order to establish Family/Theme Twin Naming between them. Works that depict them as being separated from the time of the accident up until the present day, however, are more likely to split the difference (i.e. the male MC is Makoto Yuki while the female MC is Kotone Shiomi), often explained away as a result of one sibling being placed in the foster care system and/or put up for adoption.[1]
