The main characters for Persona games are mostly blank slates. The only defining features are what the current author decides to give them.

Also the theme for P3 was death, so you can expect lots of genuflection on that topic. P4 was about truth. P5, from what I've played, is about authority and rebellion.
>>
>>156232344
I still never really got how you're supposed to think Junpei is MC's best friend by the end. Even their rooftop conversation towards the end of the game seemed more like "Let's put aside our differences and finish this" more than broing out.

That's not being douche, that's a joke for those who played the game.

This explanation is a spoiler if you didn't watch the movies or played the game.
Basically he had a manifestation of humanity's desire for death inside of him for most of his life. It only leaves him over the course of the game. I guess having death inside you kinda makes you a gloomy asshole.

P3 MC was supposed to be a sad being that had trouble dedicing on his role in life. He could come about as someone irritating but he would never meant to. Ryuuji was supposed to be his opposite, the MC wanted to live his life like that but couldn't so instead the avatar inherited those opressed feelings and decided to life a "fullfilled" life in his place.

The movies are bad because, in them he sounded like an autist and truly apathetic guy.
He was supposed to be a apathetic guy yeah but he would still care for people in his heart.
Anime tried to depict this as well but they failed miserably.

>>156232941

Combine her with Yukari and she'd have murdered the entire party just to go get MC back.

>>156232809
People say the death had an influence on his personality and all but I disagree. I think he was a gloomy guy from the very start. After all he didn't change at all even when the death got out of him.

I cannot wait for these fuckers to adapte Persona 5 just to see how the Joker does some retarded shit for Makoto's sake since there were no other females so aggressively forced on you as the love interest in that game as her.

He was never really a douche aside from the few snarky remarks; more apathetic. He was indifferent to life and was emotionally distant at first because of it.
From the end of the first movie though he starts losing this, I personally think the movies did a good job in shifting his personality dynamic through his bonds. He's the physical manifestation of humanity's desire for death; and when Nyx comes down to parley for our souls and he becomes door to stop her it's symbolic of his bonds with others granting him a reason to live and fight; plus the power of the universe is only granted by friendship tm

It's bound to be like that.

It was literally Lupin the Third: Persona Edition
It got turned into what it is because of the Fukushima disaster in 2011 that brought a new wave of nationalism and the director decided to completely change the game.

A fuckton of shit in the game is very clearly leftover retooled pieces when it was still an international game, like the Hawaii trip, Futaba's dungeon being Egypt with no explanation and so on.

>>156235298
Well the story isn't as tacked on as P4, you get glimpses of the conspiracy behind the scenes from as early on as the second dungeon's end and it tries to rope you in with the "who is traitor?" question you ask yourself at the intro of the game but that ends up being painfully obvious and a red herring for the real twist.

The game also rails the fuck out of you during any day with the cutscene, constantly going from 3 minute cutscene to your room in the evening where the only thing you're allowed to do is feed a plant and go to sleep.
>>
>>156235439
If you want actual attention to detail and Tokyo, play the Ryu ga Gotoku (known as Yakuza in English) game series.

The Persona 5 palaces are quite a lot longer than the Persona 4 dungeons and they all have gimmicks that make you stop in your tracks. Some of the palaces are even borderline zelda dungeons which is nice idea, but it's not really what I wanted to do in a Persona game.

The game is also very long, significantly longer than P4 and the story has some issues with pacing. I am at the final dungeon and I pretty much just want it to be over with now.

There are actually a ton of references towards previous characters if you watch the TV every night. Rise and Naoto are mentioned frequently, the Amagi Inn gets a travel highlight reel which talks about it's owner, Chie and Akihiko are referred to as famous kung-fu and bear wrestling police officers, and you can watch episodes of Feathermen. Wouldn't be surprised if there was more stuff too, didn't watch the TV too much until the end of the game when I realized how many cameos it gave.

They're pretty weak honestly. I feel like they gave the MC far too much personality to make him a self-insert blank state like Makoto and Yu but on the other hand the transition to anime will feel a lot less jarring incomparison. The cast this time around is pretty bleh and I think the big reason is that they don't have the same group interactions as P3 and P4 which put the cast together and established their personalities and by the end of the game they still feel like strangers despite the game trying to say otherwise but even then they're pretty bland characters as a whole. The extended cast are actually a lot more interesting than the main ones.

P5 deals with more sexual taboos
they're pretty good about it in the beginning with Kamoshida, and the MC being arrested because he tried to fight a guy who was molesting a woman on the street
and older women wanting to fuck a teen boy

but they later they just imply it. Kaneshiro apparently exploits Makato if you get bad end till she just becomes a drugged out prostitute, but it's barely implied
>>
>>156238088
P5 continues the trend of P4 where your party member development is limited to their specific dungeon, and then shoved into a SLink. Which pretty much means that are pretty much static personalities from that point in the story, despite how they might change or develop in their SLink.

Its actually a lot worse this time because these characters can't seem to do anything without Joker's approval. I'll say Makato, Futaba and Morganna are the only characters who change through the course of the game while everyone else are literally just there.

>I'll say Makato, Futaba and Morganna are the only characters who change through the course of the game while everyone else are literally just there.
that's pretty much the price of having your social links also be your party members
in P3 the main cast developed throughout the main story, but when they're also heavily involved with your daily life they need to develop there too
>>
>>156238088
Hmm, P4 characters felt superficial as well. It felt like they were just there to suck on your dick no matter what you did.

>that's pretty much the price of having your social links also be your party members
And it doesn't need to be this way its just that Atlus is too fucking lazy to incorporate social link developments into the story or to make it more relevant to the storyline. I like having cast S.Links because they do a good job with fleshing out the characters and that was a big problem with P3 vanilla and FES in that you don't really get to know these characters outside the main plot which would have helped characters like Akihiko stand out more or make Ken a lot more likable. But because they restrict the two so the S.LInks feels optional they're not given the development they need.

I like the cast better than P4 cast. All of them have trust issues w/ adults and they are honest about their flaws. Some meetings are only about deepening the bond and the friendly banters show off their relationships very well.

You could make the plot continue regardless but give the players choices on how to approach their conflicts, and make party members exclusive to each other so that if you are supportive of one, the other is cross with you.
This way you still get the plot advancement but the social link only progresses depending on the player.
Hell you could make it part of the simulation game and make it so that certain supportive actions only appear if you've spent time close to that character, otherwise you get some default flow of events.

This is a joke right because most of the cast in P3 did not have a personality and there's a reason why Junpei is the only character people point to as an example of P3's "character development". If Atlus did anything right after P3 besides gameplay is making more robust character lineups

That's the problem. Their issues are all centered around adults and not as them as individuals and most of their in game meetings are incredibly dull since none of them have any meaningful interactions with one another and banter like the P4 cast did. Something is terribly wrong when those Mementos word bubbles do more for the characters than the fucking cutscenes do.

They as individual are being oppressed/manipulated by adults. It's not a coincidence because that's the theme for P5. Their tragic backgrounds are tied to the plot and also the true reason they even understand each other and become comrades. P5 cast are social misfits not by choice yet they try to cope with the society's demands without an adult's guidance. I don't find the dialogues dull desu, they want to complete their missions without being caught by anyone. I say they are at least know that they cannot underestimate adults, given their own experiences.

Magician characters are always full of themselves but they're good and honest idiots.

No, P3 cast felt more real as every character had a serious problem or problems in their life and they were trying to overcome them.
You shit on junpei and yeah I don't like him much either but it felt more real to see him being jealous of the MC. Youkari was a bitch but she still had something in herself. Ken wanted revenge and was devastated after acquiring it. Shinji wanted to repent and all. But the s. link partners were pretty terrible.

But whatt about P4 kids? Yusuke was a bored guy who wanted to solve the murder mystery. Chie just decided to tag along. Yukiko had no personality at all. Kenji seemed interesting due to his conflict and all but in the end it wasn't that interesting. I can't even start on rise's shitty personality...
Well, I was interested in Saki's brother but he always acted in a way so the player could feel bad for him so I couldn't really finish his route.
I didn't like doujima and nanako's routes as well but I can say that they were overall better than the rest. Still the only thing that was memorable was that scene where nanako ran from home and dojima went to find her and reconcile with her.

If I can be honest, the P3 cast managed to exact more emotion from me than the P4 ones did.
I fet really bad when Nanako was hospitalized and died but that was pretty much only time I got emotional while playing P4.

Yes dear we know that but that because the game repeats this constantly but that does not make them good or interesting characters especially when the adults are all comically evil and offer no sense of levity to their actions or them as individuals. P3 handled this better because while everything that happened to the cast was a result of outside forces beyond their control they still blame themselves and grew because of it, in P4 all the characters had their insecurities showed to everyone and had to face them head on and they still accepted obe another regardless. There's no sense of character growth in P5 because all the cast issues are pushed on these adults and not on themselves and your last member gets nothing because she comes far too late and its with this the story falls off a cliff. You're obviously still on your honeymoon phase with this game so you're oblivious to its flaws.

Morgana is just shit abd his development is just a copy of Teddies except more rushed and more of a footnote.

The adults being "comically evil" doesn't negate P5 cast's bond and interactions though. I agree that P3 handles character developments better (yes I beat FES you don't need to tell me how good it is since it's my first atlus game) but I find P4 interactions are comically childish for their ages. Even in the last part of the game I feel like they don't really overcome their insecurities and the overall atmosphere is too upbeat to feel anything else. I don't have this issue when playing other persona games.
I understand you have problem with Morgana but not with Teddie. I think it's fine since I like both of them.

>P3 cast felt more real as every character had a serious problem or problems in their life and they were trying to overcome them.
This isn't the case at all, in fact most of them are far too over the top to be taken seriously.
Junpei getting singled out because he's the character most people tend to relate to either because he hits too close to home or he's the only normalfag of the group.

Yukari being a bitch dors not make her a good character or interesting in any way.

Ken is fucking terrible and his story his is not remotely realistic or relatable. Hell the movies actually improve it considerably because it was rushed as shit in the game.

>Yusuke was a bored guy who wanted to solve the murder mystery.
That pretty realistic and relatable, most shit teens do is not out of altruism or a revenge driven plot but because they're bored with their lives.

Chie did it save save Yukiko. Yukiko is a ditzy and traditional ojou sama of the group who wanted to join because she wanted to find the culprit. Kanji's whole dilemma is actually the most relatable issue in the franchise and why so many people misinterpreted it for so long, he was afraid to admit his own tastes because he thought society would shun him so he hid behind a tough exterior its why he and Naoto went so well together because they both experience the same problem of not being who they truly are, that is a hell of a lot more realistic and relevant thsn anything in P3 and especially P5 where none if the characters issues are within the realm of reality. Yes you don't like a character thst doesn't make them bad though.

Really that's up to you I found P3 to melodramatic and the situations too over the top to take them seriously. I don't think P3 did much of anything better than P4 and P5 and its mostly just "I played it first so it resonated with me more" much like people who played P4 first and the same will happen with P5.

No it just wasn't a good scene and I still didn't give a shit about sny of the characters or thought what they had to say was interesting. Haru came far too late to have any emotional investment with her.
>>
>>156241282
You're sort of right
Then again being over the top isn't bad per se
Look at P4A the P3 guys who show up look really over the top and straight out of some high fantasy rpg, yet they're still very well done
>>
>>156241282
You CAN choose to not take P3 cast's situations seriously though. After all you play the guy who is pretty much Doudemoii when it comes to everything because he knows he has the worst fate in the game.
>>
>>156240650
>The adults being "comically evil" doesn't negate P5 cast's bond and interactions though
Actually it does and even if that wasn't the case there's far too few to actually get any sense of emotional investment.

>but I find P4 interactions are comically childish for their ages.
They're fucking teenagers acting like teenagerd which is what P3 lacked because everyone was too up their own asses 24/7.

>Even in the last part of the game I feel like they don't really overcome their insecurities
That's kinda the point, they don't really get over their issues because its apart of them what happens is that they acknowledged them and begin to change gradually to by the time the 2 year epilogue hits they've all changed their outward appearances.

Morganna was just a nuisance who pretty much let his own insecurities get in the way of progress for the team, Teddie is just a moron but he doesn't do anything to hinder the team like Morgana did.

>>156240061

I thought the changes they made in the 2nd movie to some of the character subplots worked out pretty well. Like changing Ken's story so that he didn't know it was Shinji until after he had already befriended him, or making MC also have doubt about wanting to end the Dark Hour.

I think it's much better than both of them in almsot every way. P3 distributes its cast better, has a stronger final sequence and put more effort into having a group dynamic though.

Makoto gently says that she finally finds a place she truly belongs after her conversation with Sae, that scene is much more heartful than any P4 confession.
Yusuke having a small talk with Sojiro to find out that deep down he cannot truly hate Madarame after all the horrible things and giving Saiyuri away is a memorable scene.
Futaba blaming herself for her mother death but then finding new purposes in life after meeting the PT instead of going back to being a NEET is also heartwarming. Sojiro is a stranger but acts like a true guardian for MC and the girl.

>Teenagers acting like they're having ADHD is considered normal
Maybe for burgerland but not really for the rest of the world.

>That's kinda the point
So it's pretty much a P4MC-circlejerk where everyone pardons his/her own flaws.

Morgana is useful for being a character with "amnesia" and the first mentor. He's pretty good for Okimura's dungeon. After all it pays off when the gang is cornered. That's part of the plot.

What? Nocturne is my favorite SMT game but the core gameplay mechanics aren't even that great in Nocturne. Nocturne's fusion system is fucking ass and the gameplay is the usual press turn system which is pretty standard across almost every SMT game. Nocturne was great because of its music and dungeon design that made for a very atmospheric game. If we're just talking about core gameplay mechanics, SMT IV and SMT IV:A are probably the most fleshed out and complete.

In Spring of Birth, he doesn't care about anything. Ever since his parents were killed, he's drifted from place to place, never forming any attachments to anything and not even really caring about his own life. But the point is that this is all a facade; he acts like he doesn't give a shit, but when push comes to shove, he's unable to hide his inherent kindness. If he truly didn't care, he wouldn't bother helping Fuuka twice. He also wouldn't have butted into her business, which requires some level of concern. And despite his claims about not caring about life or death, he clearly cares about whether someone else might die. He basically puts on a mask of indifference but it's actually faultier than it seems. By the end, the mask has cracked apart considerably, and he's finally able to smile.

In Midsummer Knight's Dream, he becomes more willing to express himself, and shows far more concern for others than he used to, especially when Aigis went overboard with her Orgia Mode. However, his newfound attachments has a backside; he attributes the new meaning in his life and bonds that he's created to the Dark Hour and SEES. Once the Dark Hour is gone, SEES has no more reason to exist, and Makoto fears that this means that he'll lose everything he's gained over the past few months. This causes him to hesitate at a critical moment. When Shinjiro is killed, he believes that it's his fault, as his hesitance led to the battle against the Strength and Fortune Shadows to become prolonged. In the end, he is noticeably shaken by this.

In Falling Down, he retreats back into his former shell because, as Ryoji states later on, he believes that forming attachments only lead to pain and suffering. However, after becoming friends with Ryoji and witnessing Chidori's sacrifice, he regains his resolve to no longer run away from his bonds. And then Ryoji happens.

Funny thing I noticed. Across the four movies, Makoto uses Personas strictly belonging to the first fourteen Major Arcana (0. Fool~XIII. Death), as well as one from XX. Judgement. However, for some reason, he never once uses a single Persona belonging to the Lovers Arcana. Not once. It's implied that he uses one during the battle with Nyx, but it's never shown. These are the Personas that he used across the four films:

>0. Fool: Orpheus
>I. Magician: Jack Frost, Surt (Ultimate)
>II. Priestess: Sarasvati, Scathach (Ultimate)
>III. Empress: Mother Harlot
>IV. Emperor: White Tights Man, Odin (Ultimate)

I'll take any of those over Kenji trying to fuck his teacher or the fat kid being an irredeemable asshole and there being no way to progress the S. Link other than appeasing him,even though he's blatantly in the wrong. I'm not saying the FeMC S. Links are amazing, but they're far better than MC's and they also at least establish a connection between the protagonist and the party.

The fuck are you talking about? You don't have to appease him. In fact, both times he tries to get you to join his cult, literally the only options available to you are to refuse him. In fact, Nozomi is one of the S.Links that can't be reversed at all, unless you're counting the temporary mandatory one you get in his Rank 9. The only way to reverse him is to ignore him, so there's nothing stopping you from saying what you want to him, unless you're one of those autists who HAS to use the option that nets the most points every time.
>>
>>156245000
You're right actually, there's that part where the S.Link reverses but it hasn't actually reversed, and it's been a while since I played it so I forgot that that wasn't a legitimate S. Link reversal. That said, I would still call it a shitty S. Link with a character who is neither interesting, engaging or likable.

>Makoto gently says that she finally finds a place she truly belongs after her conversation with Sae, that scene is much more heartful than any P4 confession.
No its not. Its not only incredibly trout but also incredibly sappy. What place where she belongs? The PT doesn't really do anything to support that claim so its empty words
>Yusuke having a small talk with Sojiro to find out that deep down he cannot truly hate Madarame after all the horrible things and giving Saiyuri away is a memorable scene.
Its not. Its a very quaint scene after his dungeon but one that doesn't carry over anything.

>Futaba blaming herself for her mother death but then finding new purposes in life after meeting the PT instead of going back to being a NEET is also heartwarming.
No you're just saying shit is heartwarmming just because at this point because you're still in your honeymoon period.

Not really, you're just taking your like for a character and saying the opposite because that's all you can do. That seems to be a common theme with P5fags of saying :"its good because I like it" and not how well it does it. You fags aren't going to last long with that type of mindset

Maybe by the end of The Answer but by the end of the main game they've become true friends who went through so much with one another through the course of the game, a great moment came about before the final battle is that everyone got to decide for themselves if whenever they wanted to fight Nyx or not and through that you get to see how the characters all became closer with one another as a result. In P5 the PT don't have much of a personal stake against Shido he's just another rotten adult that the PT must take care of, there's a clear lack of comradity here that you can't help but say "meh" at the end result, even Ryuji's big hero moment is treated as a joke as the cast beats him up after it turns out he's alive and this is for comedic effect.

Not that guy, but all your previous points are "it's bad because I dislike it", you don't like the characters and think their moment are bad, nothing wrong with that, that doesn't mean everyone that doesn't hate them is just on a "honeymoon period" and will eventually come to dislike the game

>it's bad because I dislike it"
I literally explained why all the group meeting and conversations are shit because they don't do anything for the characters. I hate the fact tat Haru comes late in the game because she feels like a wasted addition and you can't get emotionally invested in what is the hardest time in her life. I don't not like Morganna because he's a brat who's a hindrance to the PT and his development is just a carbon copy of Teddie's except not nearly as impactful or even relevant. Now do all these make P5 a lesser game? Not really, its still a well polished piece of work regardless what I said and many people agree but couldn't it have become better by fixing these issues? Absolutely. I don't like these comparison arguments because each and every installment stands out on its own strengths and don't necessarily have to follow the same format; people still love P2 because of its characters and story even if the battle system is ass, people still love P3 despite the fact that P4 and P5 are technically superior and nothing I say is going to change people's minds over it.

You say it like overreacting to everything and being on hyper mode on default in P4 are better. That scene is the true conclusion for Makoto to become an official member of PT, after her getting pushed and demanded by not only her family but also her surrounding. While she fully gets Sae's view about women in modern society part of her still yearns for a "rest stop" to the point that her action becomes desperate. The PT sees through that, they sympathize with her and welcome her.

Yusuke with Sojiro IS one of the character bonding scene you asked for. It may not touch your shallow view when you need characters screaming to get their feelings across but for me it's Yusuke conclusion. Same with Futaba's and Ann's.

He was given his Persona by Izanami.

That's all well and good but it doesn't make a lick of difference if it isn't conveyed well in the game at all. Just because see says it doesn't mean anything if the game itself doesn't do shit to establish that's the case, you can say that SEES have become true friends by the end of the game because there's moments highlighting them becoming closer, you say that the IT are friends because the game is all about goofballs coming together to defeat a common element and enjoying life with one another, but Makoto feels at home with the PT when she barely hangs out with any of the members and belittles Ryuji constantly and doesn't have a close relationship with any one other than Joker? Give me a fucking break.

>Yusuke with Sojiro IS one of the character bonding scene you asked for
No? It wasn't even a bonding scene since they don't eve know each other its just the conclusion of Yusuke's story arc which has nothing to do with Sojiro. Of course this would have been better if that whole segment with Madarame wasn't one of the worst written arcs in the game.

>It may not touch your shallow view when you need characters screaming to get their feelings across
No they just need to show it not tell us how they feel, maybe you can get sntimental over hooky bullshit like "Sayuri was my mother all along" but don't try to past it off as well written.

Ryuuji ? Morgana ? Like 1/4 of the party instead of all except MC and Naoto in P4 ?

You only get the scene after finishing Kaneshiro's dungeon because it ties to Makoto's debut. Makoto appears in almost every group scene afterward and even plays the interogattor for Goro's scene. Also she doesn't belittle Ryuuji though. You lacking knowledge to understand friendly banters has nothing to with the game.

Sojiro pretty much welcomes Yusuke as MC's friend, just like how he knows Ann is a good girl after seeing her getting the MC's bag. You want
the game "need to show it not tell us how they feel" it does exactly that: they have meetings sharing their backstories and feelings to understand each other's better. They act to show you as well but you skip them. Talking is an action don't you know ?

I would argue that's only because the original director planned to give similar treatment to other characters, but got replaced for the P4GA one so it looks like Fuuka got preferential treatment.
>>
>>156246979
The problem with the movies is that each movie focuses on a different set of bonds.

In Spring of Birth, the main bonds are Junpei and Fuuka, and to a lesser extent Yukari. In Midsummer Knight's Dream, they're Yukari, Ken and Shinjiro (though Yukari never gets a Persona associated with her). In Falling Down, it's pretty much Ryoji, and to a lesser extent Akihiko and Aigis. In Winter of Rebirth, it's Aigis with Elizabeth as a secondary.

Funnily enough, Mitsuru never gets any alone time with the protagonist aside from that one very brief instance in Kyoto.

If it were a proper two-cour series, I'm sure they would have gotten a lot more interactions. Hell, maybe they could have even adapted some of the drama CDs, though Fuuka's primary interactions in those are with Shinjiro.

Just Futaba also you forgot Teddie retard, his entire character arc is the basis for the game since its the Star Arcana the arcana in which P4 follows much like P3 followed Death.

>Makoto appears in almost every group scene afterward and even plays the interogattor for Goro's scene
Once again you seem to have a difficult time getting the point. but you 're still on your honeymoon phase so its to be expected
>Also she doesn't belittle Ryuuji though.
She does. All the time. In fact she's second to Morgana in pointing out how retarded he is.

>Sojiro pretty much welcomes Yusuke as MC's friend, just like how he knows Ann is a good girl after seeing her getting the MC's bag.
That's nice but he doesn't have an established relationship with any of them and its just a kind gesture to show that he is not bad at all. You are truly grasping for straws at this point.

>the game "need to show it not tell us how they feel" it does exactly that

Strange that your statement doesn't have a specific scene given that you states it happens all the time huh?

Futaba ? The very first 'normal' conversation between two autists happens as expected. Besides he's the DIE FOR ART guy, anything he says always come back to art and everyone even Ryuuji understands that. He also goes to another school, unlike P4 or P3 cast.

You're missing my point. I don't have problems with P3 cast but I DO w/ P4 cast.

I swear this guy must be the most retarded characters Atlus has ever conceived. Its like he was setting himself up to fail with everything he did.

>>Pancakes
If you're coming around a corner and hear someone mention pancakes, you don't first assume that it was a fucking magic pussy.

>>156250725
Why would you be eavesdropping on them to begin with?
>>
>>156250772
Because you're walking past.

>>156250725
They weren't even talking about actual pancakes to begin with that what makes this fuck up all the more funny

The only time we see his "intelligence" is in the Casino, but, well.
>that palace has been around for a long time now according to Makoto.

It's not unreasonable to believe that he extensively scoped out the palace ahead of time so he knew the ins and outs of it.

I liked her cooking with Shinjiro. It was cute.
The drama CDs were good about giving other characters some much needed development in p3, I wish we had some animations for them.
>>
What if they give the rest of the Persona/SMT games an anime.

I for one would love to see Demifiend punching the shit out of everything
>>
>>156252243
Apparently, someone on the dev team was unhappy with how little SEES interaction they were able to fit into the game, so I guess that's why there are so many drama CDs. Budgets are a troublesome thing.

Eh it works fine, I think it's your pc or your settings. Maybe you played with an old version of the emulator though

>>156245817
It's not about the emulator it's about the .iso itself.

They have the same color and style of eyes and slight pale shift to their flowing blonde hair which is parted on the left. The designs are pretty fuckin similar.

He's a door with a fucked up past, childhood wasn't good to Door-kun, and there's also the fact like that all SMT MCs they are all blank slates left to be determined by the player. He's still not as much as a dick as the P5 MC.

>>156254097
>can tell a guy to get his cousin who has fucked up legs running shoes.
That's worse than any of P5's mean options.

The main p3 abd p3p ones are, and ther s another one that focuses on the senpais before the start of the game. The first 2 categories have translations, the 3rd I'm working on.

Persona 3 femC is a pretty good

Just search "p3 drama CD" on YouTube; translated videos for all of them will come up.

I wasn't aware of that one. The ones I have are:

>Episode [Luck]
>A Certain Day of Summer
>Character Drama CD Vol1~5
>New Moon, Full Moon
>Moonlight, Daylight
>Persona 3 Portable Vol.1~2

Yeah, it's called "seaside vacation before deaths scythe". It has a flashback to before the incident with kens mom, so they're all happy and unweighted.
It was sold at comiket and aniplex took limited orders for a few months. Managed to get a copy a whole back; it's 20 min and fantastic.
>>
>>156232109
the whole theme of the game is based on death. MC grows to learn (literally) the meaning of life and to cherish it with others. At the start he was apathetic to show the contrast in what he becomes. The first movie's theme also supports this.
