[Update] Mysterious Countdown Hints at Persona 4 Anime

[Mahorfeus]

I doubt that it's going to be P4P... I mean, didn't P2P just get announced not so long ago?

Given the loose connections between P3 and P4, I wouldn't mind a crossover sequel though.

Persona 4 Portable I hope

EDIT: I saw PP (Persona Portable) today at a gamestop used but I decided against getting it due to that bad stuff I have heard about it

Only one day and 13 hours left...

I can't BEAR to wait that long. This is un-BEAR-able.

EDIT: So apparently it does work, just not in previews. Bah, I say!

Persona 4 Portable I hope

Do you mean Persona 1 or Persona 3: Portable?

P1 is somewhat dated, but it's not a bad game. They completely fixed the botched localization the PS1 version suffered from.

P3P, however, is my favorite game on the PSP.

Im pretty sure its been confirmed as Persona 5. ;u Well thats what I gathered from Tumblr.

Persona 4 Portable seems unlikly since im pretty sure they are working on a Persona 2: Innocent Sin remake for the PSP o.o

I see your point. However, P4 references:

*April 11th
*Yellow background on mayonaka-tv.jp
*Mayonaka TV is the Midnight Channel

P5 would be awesome, sure, but unless it uses those elements of P4 I don't see it being involved. If you have more info, please share

I'm kinda new to the whole Persona series. I just picked up Persona 3 FES like a week ago for dirt cheap to give it a shot. I'm liking it so far. Was P3P superior in some way to FES though? Either way, I hope this is a PSP port just to give me a reason to dust that thing off and use it again.

P3P had some expanded social links (I think, it might just be more character portraits) and the option to play as a female protagonist (which changes a lot of the social links).

It also had P4-style combat, in that you can assign all your teammates to "direct command" and control them like in a normal RPG.

That does not mean it has all the features of FES and more, however. The Answer (extra chapter after the end of the main story) isn't included, the cutscenes are cut (specifically, everything in the cutscenes is redone in the same format as all the in-game conversations) and you don't navigate in the same way (there's a layout, you hover things, I don't really feel like explaining it).

You'll be happy with either version, but playing as the female protagonist is pretty interesting, and the combat is made somewhat easier (although there are additional difficulty settings).

Hm. The ability to play as a different protagonist may be fun after I've played through once. Also, while I would prefer the combat style in P3P, I haven't found the regular style to be that bad so far. It sounds like something I might pick up later, but I'm happy with FES at this point. Plus the cutscene change sounds like a major downgrade.

Thank you for the info.

Use Mitsuru and watch her Marin Karin the enemy when your party is in critical condition.
Also, what mireko meant was that you don't actually walk around on the map. You use a cursor to move around maps, and in my opinion it works fine. And most of the story is told through a visual novel style as well.

I think it's P4P as well, but I can understand why people would think it's P5. Persona doesn't really have something specific to the series (for example, showing a chocobo in a commercial would show everyone that it's a Final Fantasy commercial) so the best thing to use would be objects from the last game in the series.

The source code for the page references sonymusic.co.jp. It's in the Adobe part of the code, at least the part that looks pre-packaged.

I'm glad it's going to be an anime adaptation, as I'd never play it, because I simply don't have a PS2 to play it.

Update:
Crap, hope it doesn't suck like the other Persona anime...

 

[mireko]

Update: AnimeNews has unearthed evidence that this will be a Persona 4 anime adaptation, produced by Atlus in conjunction with Aniplex. Sounds good to me.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

 

[antipunt]

*after update was revealed*

yeeeck! DAMMIT. This is like, the worst out of all the possibilities...

Trinity Soul 2....

 

[mireko]

The anime adaptation will be produced by Atlus parent company Index along with Aniplex under the Index Corporation / P4A Committee. Atlus previously supervised the production of another Persona anime adaptation in Trinity Soul, licensed by Nippon Ichi in the US and also produced by Aniplex, with elements taken from Persona 3.

Allow me to reiterate: FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

 

[OrionKurnous]

Sounds great. Can't wait till the 11th.

Trinity Soul 2....

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

This. Another damn anime. That was a letdown.

 

[Alufear]

I'm nervous as HELL. P4 was superb and an anime MIGHT be great, but would they be able to get all of the original voice actors from the game? Would the MC *gasp* TALK?!!?! D:

 

[Tony2077]

an anime hmm how could they make it good given what the video game is like

 

[Abedeus]

Glabahardghablalbla

Wait, gotta grab a napkin.

Okay all better.

YAAAAAAY

 

[DJDarque]

It is an anime.

I am disappoint.
