Specifically Cold Steel 1 and 3. Where it's a mix of school life/slice of life on some ingame days and then real shit on others.

Doesn't really need to be at school specifically, just any game where it's centered around the same core group, and swaps between slice of life low stakes stuff & character development and then back to whatever main goal they are all progressing to, then after whatever plot, they return to their base/home and go back to slice of life chilling out for a while

Yakuza isn't quite like this. It swaps between goofy and serious stuff, sure, but it doesn't scratch the same kind of itch.

Three Houses kinda does as well but it didn't do it was well as Persona and Cold Steel

Any other trails series

Sky and Azure

I always like the second game more in the arcs. They all follow that setup including CS 3 and 4. Setup the area and characters then the shit goes down in the second one

played them, actually the crossbell arc did scratch this itch. Sky arc didnt (although it was top tier).
Maybe Daybreak/Calvard arc will scratch the itch once more

Ys maybe? 8 and 9 specifically. Same devs as Trails. Of course Tales does this too, just no school stuff

It'll be forever before we get the new ones lol

Also there's the Trails that switches between Rean/Lloyd/the other guy that recently came out don't forget it

Tokyo Xanadu is basically like Trails of Cold Steel but with an action battle system.

The story has some Persona 5 vibes as well.

Tokyo Xanadu Ex + is extremely good. It often goes on really deep sales too. I can't think of anything else at the moment for some reason. I'd think I'd be able to considering how many games probably try to take inspiration from modern Persona.

Also a good recommendation but it's waaaaay darker than everything else mentioned thus far so you'd wanna know you're getting into that before diving in
