| genre = Role-playing | modes = Single-player }} is a Japanese role-playing video game developed and published by Atlus in 1994 for the Super Famicom. It is a spin-off from the ''Shin Megami Tensei'' series, itself part of the larger ''Megami Tensei'' franchise. Since release, it has been ported to mobile devices, the PlayStation, Microsoft Windows, and Nintendo's Virtual Console. The story follows a student of Karukozaka High School after their school is sucked into the realm of demons by a vengeful student's demon summoning spell going wrong. ''Shin Megami Tensei if...'' was developed as a change from previous ''Shin Megami Tensei'' titles, focusing on a small-scale environment and threat rather than a large-scale environment as in previous titles. Upon release, ''if...'' received a positive reception from critics and fans, and inspired multiple tie-in print adaptations and a mobile prequel. Its well-received high school setting was the impetus for the creation of the spin-off ''Persona'' series. ==Synopsis== At Karukozaka High School, bullied and brilliant student Ideo Hazama attempts to summon a demon from the Expanse to exact revenge on his tormenters. The summoning goes wrong and the whole school is drawn into the Expanse. There, Hazama declares himself as the Demon God Emperor. The Protagonist is among those trapped in the school, along with fellow students Reiko Akanezawa, Yumi Shirakawa, Shinji "Charlie" Kuroi and Akira Miyamoto. Should the Protagonist side with Yumi or Shijni, they navigate the demon-infested school and demon-filled towers, finally confronting and killing Hazama. The Protagonist and their companion escape, but the school and the rest of the students remain trapped in the Expanse. If the Protagonist allied with Reiko, they enter the Demon Emperor's mind after he is first defeated, and see Hazama's motivations for his actions. Reiko, a relative of Hazama, calms him and stays with him in the Expanse while the Protagonist is teleported back to the human world and the school is returned to normal. In another route unlocked on a second playthrough, the Protagonist can ally with Akira, who seeks vengeance against the demons who sucked the school into the Expanse. Travelling to the Land of Nomos, Akira is killed and possessed by the demon Amon, who after defeating Hazama takes his place as the Demon God Emperor, sending the Protagonist back to the human world alone. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shin Megami Tensei if...」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
