While the Persona series has always been known primarily for its great combat and story, its other life simulation features can't be ignored. The friendship and dating simulation parts of the game are a huge draw for many, and putting time into them can be a fun way to split up players' time between battling demons and trying not to fall asleep in class. This is certainly the case in Persona 3 Portable, which features tons of characters with interesting Social Links. Plus, growing closer to each character will reward the player with a brand-new Arcana, which is a huge bonus within itself!

One of the several options for friendship and romance is Bebe - also known by his actual name, Andre Laurent Jean Geraux, or simply as the Foreign Student. Bebe represents the Temperance Arcana, and is a romanceable option for the female protagonist in Persona 3. A French student currently studying alongside the player in Japan, Bebe is a little lonely and is looking for companionship during his studies. If Bebe has managed to catch your eye, read on for the best gifts to give him to raise his Social Link.

Gift Giving In Persona 3 Portable

In Persona 3 Portable, gift-giving works similarly to the feature in other Persona titles - with a few exceptions.

Gifts can be found, earned, or made in several locations that the player can visit, and they will cost different currencies depending on where they can be purchased from. Players can only give gifts to people who ask the protagonist to meet them on a non-school day. This means that the other character will have to call the player via cell phone, rather than the other way around. If the player asks a specific character to go on an outing, then they won't be able to give that character any gifts.

Similarly, it works a little differently depending on which protagonist the player has chosen. Male protagonists can only give gifts to female characters. Female protagonists can give anyone a gift regardless of gender. Despite this, though, the female protagonist can still only end up in a romantic ending with male characters, with Elizabeth being the only exception.

The Best Gifts For Bebe

As with all other characters, Bebe has gifts he loves and gifts he likes. The player will receive different amounts of points depending on what they give him, but all will receive high points regardless.

The range of gifts that Bebe enjoys can be gained in multiple ways. Some can be bought in different locations like Shinshoudo Antiques or can be won by playing the Crane Game. Some can also be cooked by the female protagonist during Fuuka Yamagishi's Cooking Club each Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday. Luckily for players aiming to unlock his Arcana or achieve higher Links with Bebe, he loves every item the female protagonist can cook, making it very easy to remember his tastes.
