is that the actual OP cause it mostly seems to be a bunch of sequences from the game. I mean, I'm not complaining, but it seems a little lazy if that's all it has

I think that's partly the point. After all, the anime cut scenes in game were awesome, so if it ain't broke... That's my view on it, anyways. But, no, I'm not 100% sure that is the true OP sequence.
Oh and here's some pics I had saved on my comp
O.o Do you mean comp as in short for computer, or do you have an actual COMP?? Either way, thanks for the awesome arts. Naoto and Chie FTW.

We’re willing to guess that until someone finally dares to make The Adventures of Methuselah Jones, it’ll be hard to find a game that’s been anticipated by fans for over a decade.

That’s right, back in 1999—in between all those exciting millennium parties, of course—a new chapter in the acclaimed Persona series of roleplaying games came out in Japan and was ultimately never published in North America. This “lost” chapter, long anticipated by fans of Atlus, the series, and RPGs in general, is extremely overdue. Apart from one other game coming out this year that has teased and tortured its fanbase for a similarly agonizing stretch of time (you know, the one that wants bubble gum but is out of it), there really isn’t much else out there that fans have been waiting as long for.



But we’re not just going to give fans the same game that came out in Japan in 1999. Oh no, the PSP version of Innocent Sin is loaded with improvements and additions, including but not limited to:

•16:9 Aspect Ratio
•Remastered Visuals and Audio
•Remixed Musical Score (with option to toggle between that and original)
•Streamlined User Interface
•New Quests
•New Intro Animation
•And more!

I was wondering that myself. :monster: Still, there was a short lived one not too long ago.

Call dibs on Yu Narukami.

I've also been thinking about a Persona RP. No idea what we could do storywise though. (I'd recommend no-one's a Wild Card, though, just so we all have the one Persona.)

I'm interested. Aki is always talking about Persona in some way and I seem to trust her opinion on most anything else.

Someone want to point me in the right direction of where to start with Persona? :huh:

Agreed. Persona 4, definitely. I often compare 3 and 4 to Buffy/Angel and Firefly.

The Buffyverse and Persona 3 use more elements that I'm interested in, but Firefly and Persona 4 just feel like home.

(And everyone is bi for Naoto. No exceptions.)

My hope is that the Persona 4 anime reaches the US and that they keep the same VA than in the game.

I kind of want to say start with Persona 3 (if going for the PS2 version), since going back to P3 after playing P4 with its ability to directly control the whole team (as opposed to P3 where you only have direct control of the protagonist and just give the other AI-controlled characters more broad/general commands) doesn't feel right.

Unless you went 'P4 then P3 Portable', which I think adds the direct command option?

it does that AND enables you to play a hot chick

p3p is pretty much everything that's right with persona.

To be honest, I actually find being unable to control my party members sort of jarring, especially when they seem to get twice as many turns as I do sometimes ;-;

I mean in a lot of battle encounters I have I get the first hit and if it isn't like a weak-spot-for-massive-damage move, the rest of my party wipes out the enemy before I get a chance to do anything :monster:


Also dibs on Akihiko

Not surprising it would work though since most Persona characters are distinctly Japanese :monster:


EDIT: URGH

I hate Fuuka's voice
Mitsuru's was so much more awesome, now there's this 10-year-old voice going "eehhheh attaaack dem~~" or "ohhhh nuuuu akihiko-senpaiiii~~" during battle and I'm all URGH

There was this one time where some shadow cast mabufula and she was all "YUKARI-CHAN IS IN TRUBBLE" and i just want to yell at my PSP "NO I'M IN TROUBLE YOU STUPID GIRL, I HAVE LESS HEALTH THAN HER AND YOU IGNORE ME"



EDIT: Found the Orders tab allows you to control party members if need be, so hey that's pretty neat for people who like the option/can't trust the bots

Although tbf the AI is very, very good at being assistants, recognising nulls and weaknesses and reflects, etc and healing when prompted (although as enemies get stronger i think I'll deal with the healing manually)

Calm the hell down!

I second that. Any game that ditches its cast when it becomes an anime should have a good excuse to do so. Besides which, the voice-acting in the Persona games is top-notch (so much so, that the main reason they're adding voice-acting to the remake of Devil Survivor is because the Persona games have given Atlus such a rep in that area).
And, uh, Souji and Kanji and Teddie and Naoto...
Souji as in Souji Seta? The potential for selfcest scares me...

...I need to dig out my copies of the Persona games. I don't think I finished either 3 or 4. :doh:

I agree, though it infuriates me that the MC dying is a game over when other members on your party have the revive spell. Especially considering the prevalence of the insta-kill spells as you get higher up in Tartarus.

I think I'm going to have my "control party member" set on permanently as they don't seem to recognise the importance of running away from Death. :awesome:
