Tohya's opponent in Los Angeles is Sam, who placed 3rd in Deluxe USA. He hints that his investigation suggests that Masanori could be involved with Uniformers. In order to gain more information, Tohya challenges Sam and his Blue Deathsters to a fight with an intent to win.
As long as I'm Persona Riding,
I can stand without needing a hit.
طالما أركب البيرسونا، أستطيع 
.الوقوف دون الحاجة إلى هجوم
Solang ich im Persona Ride bin, kann ich
stehen, ohne dass ich einen Hit brauche.
En Persona Ride,
se endereza aunque no impacte.
En Persona Ride,
se endereza aunque no impacte.
En mode Persona Ride,
je reste engagé même sans avoir attaqué.
Finché sono in Convocazione Personale,
posso risvegliare senza bisogno di colpire.
Posso levantar sem precisar de um golpe,
desde que eu esteja em Persona Ride.
Пока я в личном замещении,
 могу поворачивать карты без попадания.
