Play 3rd semester w/o playing the whole game over?

Question

Ended up missing the requirements for third semester (was not aware they existed until it was too late, first time player), but genuinely do not have the time or energy to play the entire game again in NG+. Is there a way to enable it or skip to it or something? I know the ShrineFox mod menu supposedly has the option, but it doesn't support PC yet from what I gathered.I've got one completed save file, one save file right after the final boss, and one in the Mementos depths, if that means anything.

You could maybe use zmenu

It's not really worth the hassle then, I'd just watch a vid, I experienced the normal ending but it's hard to tell what's actually different in the third semester if you didn't get the usual ending first as this is my first time replaying persona 5 on *ROYAL* as i played the old one back in the day, And the ending on this one is changed up quite alot regardless of the unlock or not, I like the replayability on this one cause there's confidants i never manage to max out before the end, The devs kinda want us to play this long past beating our first initial ending, If i wanted to see the third semester and not want to replay the whole thing, I'd find a save backup.

the game constantly urges you to hangout with maruki, just start new game plus and hang out with him this timeedit: actually i have a save where i maxed out all confidants, it's right before the mementos depths so you'll have to fight yaldabaoth again but it's better than starting the entire game again. if you give me your discord i could just dm you it

Same thing happened to me on my first playthrough. Now I know the game in and out but its a common mistake. My friend did the same thing. I just played the game normally, then did the 3rd semester on NG+ where I could speedrun the main story with Satanael
