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.

After the party's final confrontation with Nyarlathotep, Ms. Ideal stabs Maya with the Spear of Destiny. Due to a rumor that wounds inflicted from it could not be healed, it inflicts a mortal wound. Even in her dying breath, Maya tells the party to be positive, telling them "Mr. Bunbun" will not be happy if they are sad, and finally dies, fulfilling the Oracle of Maia and destroying the world, with the exception of Sumaru City.

Stricken with grief and devastated over her death, the party demands Philemon to do something about it. Philemon agrees to bring her back, but in an 'alternate world' with a hefty price; everyone must forget Maya and the friendship they shared. Everyone willingly discards their memory, but during the process Tatsuya out and out refuses to forget through sheer force of will. In the events of doing so, Tatsuya ends up in the 'alternate' universe with all his memories intact, causing a paradox and setting the events of Eternal Punishment.
