    After you play the game watch the anime he is definitely not silent in that and it's amazing

    Chie's voice actress is rad. Yosuke is a doof. Probably going to take a break before I try Chie's midnight channel dare as surely shit is gonna hit the fan.

    ggs, I don't know why I couldn't Agneyastra, I thought Shadow mode had their awakened supers at all times.

    @Radius Thanks for the matches! You pretty much cemented my knowledge that Naoto is the only character I am reasonably okay with.

    But I am thinking about getting serious about pocket [REDACTED]

    That's weird, I thought so too. Your Shadow Chie almost gave me a lot of trouble in round 1 of that second game until I got a couple of lucky run-up-and-throw-Radiuses in there.

    Your Marie was giving me fits. I still don't know how to handle that character.

    Yeah, that was fun.

    You absolutely wrecked me that one round, just read everything I was going to do.

    That is always the fun bit with grapplers, one or two lucky guesses and that is the whole round sometimes. Assuming you can get in. I still have to work on my approach game with Kanji, I rely too much on the same air set ups.

    Tal: Mine had a river side area similar, and yeah it was a place students would go to talk with some degree of privacy.

    Man, is the anime worth watching? Or is it borderline fanfic slop?

    the only real criticism i have of the anime is that the animation is pretty shitty overall

    but the writing is solid, and the added scenes are all pretty great

    Well I finished all four score attack courses with Kanji, unlocking him as a navigator. He's the only one I really wanted right off since I main Naoto.

    Then I went online and just won match after match. It was a little nuts. Last night I went ten matches without taking a single one.

    Maybe people were intimidated by Kanji telling them to get bent up in the corner.

    Don't watch golden animation though

    Well, watch the first episode. And episode uh, 7 or 8. Whichever has the fight with the culprit

    all I know is that the sloped riverbank thing is a pretty common motif in anime

    I heard the Golden animation ends with
    Marie's persona hugging the shit out of Izanami.

    I think I'm going out today to pick up Ultimax. is there any special packaging for the edition that comes with Teddie and the tarot cards or should any copy I find in stores pretty much be a first run still?

    The version with Teddie and the cards comes in a larger plastic box that has the regular game case and the extra items.

    I threw my Teddie out though because he reeked of plastic.

    If you're looking to get the XBox 360 version and there aren't any first run editions left, I can mail you my spare one. I'm not shipping it back to Amazon until later today.

    The ability to throw Teddie in the garbage feels like reason enough to buy the special edition imo

  • mxmarksmxmarks Registered User regular
    I guess I should say the only reason I even am buying it physically is to get the Teddie, so if anyone is throwing him away I'll gladly pay shipping and buy it digitally.

    And thanks @Cello‌ but I'm going PS3. But I appreciate the generosity!

    I watched that video
    Then watched some golden exclusive additions to the game

    I dont think I like golden

    That video has nothing to do with Golden despite being a clip of what is ostensibly an animated adaptation of Persona 4 Golden.

    And they were all terrible fanservice

    The game itself doesn't come off as fanservicey. Basing your opinion of the game on the animation is folly.

    fanservice isn't just about cheesecakey stuff.

    but Golden seems p fanservicey on all fronts.

    All the Persona games after Persona 4 have some element of fanservice

  • Bluedude152Bluedude152 Registered User regular
    There is a scene of all the girls staring at Naotas boobs and they add jiggle sound effects

    And they felt the need to make that a animated cutscene

    persona 3 has the characters in a love hotel so I dunno how surprised you can be that the series succumbs to the same problematic shit time and time again

    It took Persona 4 Golden like, less than a minute to shove a cutscene of a girl in a bikini in front of me, as part of a commercial that as far as I can tell so far didn't need that content in anyway. It is already off to a terrible start on the fanservice front.

    On a different note, should I like, be watching the TV channels that are on the main menu at all or should I skip them?

  • WeedLordVegetaWeedLordVegeta Registered User regular
    that scene's also in the main game, and actually is important, believe it or not

    and I really liked the bonus stuff they put on the main menu but none of it's necessary
