Out of curiosity, is there a chance that Shinjiro can have Koromaru as a regain? Technically speaking someone could app him and play him, given he's a fairly important member of SEES, and is smarter than the average canine (to the point where he even has a favorite TV show), but he falls well in line with being something of a sidekick character.

That and he's also got a persona as well! So I can understand if not, but kind of laughing at the idea of Shinji asking for a weapon and ending up with his lil buddy instead.
