Yukari's Social Link requires max charm to initiate, underscoring the importance of focusing on raising your charm early for a Max Social Link run. Most of the choices in Yukari's social link provide a good amount of bonding points, reducing the need for additional days. However, some ranks offer no points, requiring you to accept her invitations during holidays for those extra points. Another consideration is the new Hangout feature that takes place at night. If you watch a movie with Yukari, you can unlock a new passive for her Persona and earn additional bonding points, potentially saving you a day in the process.
