Maya Amano is a writer for Kismet Publishing working on the teen magazine Coolest. she wears a two-piece ensemble consisting of a two-tone brown jacket with distinctive pink hearts on the chest and a matching skirt trimmed in metallic silver paired with knee-high brown boots, finished off with a long navy necktie.

Maya is known for her motto, "Let's think positive!" She became a journalist because of her late father, a war correspondent who was killed during a conflict. Maya always regrets not stopping her father from leaving but instead pretending to be a good daughter. His trip and eventual death made Maya realize that she is very afraid of loneliness; this gave birth to her "big sister" facade after she met the kids of the Masked Circle.

She also functions as the silent protagonist in Persona 2: Eternal Punishment.
