YukaHam is the femslash ship between Kotone Shiomi and Yukari Takeba from the Persona fandom.

Canon[]

Like her counterpart, Yukari is the first character Kotone meets at the start of the game. After their introductions, Yukari takes Kotone to Gekkoukan High School on her first day. Yukari later expresses sympathy for Kotone while SEES is spying on her. During the Magician Shadow's attack, Yukari gives Kotone a weapon and tries to lead her to safety while Mitsuru and Akihiko fight off the Shadow. However, the Shadow catches up to Kotone and Yukari. After Yukari’s failed attempt to summon her Persona, Kotone uses Yukari’s Evoker to summon her Persona for the first time. She then defeats the Magician Shadow. Kotone wakes up in the hospital, where Yukari is visiting her. Yukari tells Kotone that they're alike since Kotone is an orphan while Yukari has lost her father and is on bad terms with her mother. Before she leaves, she tells Kotone that she doesn’t have to be formal with her since second-year girls have to stick together. Yukari’s Social Link starts much earlier than Makoto's. It was available after April 28th. Yukari’s Social Link focuses on their friendship and her restrained relationship with her mother.

The two partners in the second and third entire moon operations. Unlike Kotone’s counterpart, she can’t be paired with Yukari during the third operation when Lover's Shadow attempts to force the two into physical intimacy.

During the Yakushima event, Yukari runs off after discovering her father released the Shadows. Mitsuru sends Kotone after her, and Yukari shares her feelings towards her father and their powers. On the second day of the trip to Yakushima, Kotone hangs out with Yukari and the other girls to visit the Jyomon-Cedar Tree.

During the hot spring incident, when the girls split up to find the culprit, Kotone went with Yukari to search where the guys were hidden.

Social Link[]

Yukari’s Social Link is similar to Makoto’s, except most of the scenes with Kotone are played similarly differently. On 1st rank, they hang out at Chagall Cafe and talk about the incident where Kotone first awakens her Persona. On 2nd rank, they stopped by a flower shop after seeing a movie. When Yukari asks her what her favorite flower is, Yukari responds differently depending on the player's choices. Suppose the player chooses, “I like Gerbera, " she will be happy since there are also cute flowers, which are full of energy. She likes how they come in so many different colors. At the end of 2nd rank, Yukari decides to buy those flowers today, but she changes her mind due to how expensive they are, so Kotone purchases a small bouquet instead. On 3rd rank, Yukari was considered to Karaoke with her at the Paulownia Mall until they spotted a lost child and took him to the police station to search for the boy’s parents. Afterward, Yukari trusts Kotone to keep their conversation about her mother a secret. After the incident, Yukari decided to cancel going to karaoke. On the 4th rank, Yukari and Kotone go shopping at Paulownia Mall until Yukari receives a call from her mother asking her for permission to remarry to the guy she is currently dating. The player can ask her if she is alright, and Yukari calms down after her conversation with her mother, but she thanks her for asking. Kotone stay with her side until she’s calm down. After she told her more about her mother, she happily told her she felt she could tell her anything. Kotone continued company with Yukari until her shopping spree finally wound down.

On 5th rank, Kotone waits for Yukari to find her wallet until she notices she hasn’t returned. She decides to search for her until she discovers her was surrounded by punks. She has the option to save Yukari or watch. After the punks left, Yukari thanked Kotone for calling the police. On the 6th rank, where both of them hang out at Wild-duck Burger, she mentions from the last rank that the punks stole her wallet. She told her how she felt that day since she was angry at herself. Yukari asks her if it makes her mad. Either option, she will be happy to hear that.

Yukari admits she always blurts out whatever she’s thinking about her. If Kotone responds, “Isn’t it because we’re friends?” Yukari reacts in surprise as she realizes that’s how friends are. Yukari tells her that there’s part of her that’s unsentimental. She always keeps thinking of herself as apart from others. She didn’t care about other people. She didn’t want anybody to get involved with her either. She kindly tells Kotone it’s different with her since she doesn’t mind how much Kotone tries to be her friend and is looking forward to it. Yukari says to her that she is looking forward to it. She wants someone to understand what she is going through. Afterward, Yukari and Kotone went to the sweet shop to eat anmitsu before returning to the dorm.

On 7th rank, it gets serious when Kotone saves Yukari from a speedy car but gets hurt. Yukari will be furious at Kotone and worry for her because she doesn’t want to lose someone important to her again. On 8th rank, they went shopping for earrings. If Kotone suggests getting a matching set with her, Yukari comments it would be cool until she notices her ears aren’t pierced, so she changes her mind and proposes a new choker instead since Kotone will look cute wearing one. After Yukari’s mother calls her, she wants to apologize to Yukari for everything and says that she won’t get remarried until she forgives her. Kotone can suggest either “Can you forgive her?” or “Do you want to see her?” regardless of the choices, Yukari is considering seeing her mom again. Yukari and Kotone continue their shopping for accessories. On 9th rank, they hang out at Pheromone Coffee. Yukari tells Kotone she is considering looking for a boyfriend, and Kotone can support her decisions. She thanks Kotone for everything and the reason she became more open up. When Yukari considers inviting her to a group date, there is also extra dialogue if Kotone becomes Akihiko’s boyfriend (that can be max in October or later). Yukari realizes Kotone is already dating Akihiko and decides not to since Akihiko will get angry at her.

On the final rank, Yukari calls off finding a boyfriend and wants to hang out with Kotone, her best friend.
