@Cali I have the feeling that Liz is gonna end up getting in touch with the phantom thieves, seeing as how they pulled off a similar humanity changing event by the end of the game.
"Sometimes, all you need is something simple, like someone to take care of. I'll keep on living no matter what, so that I can protect you..." That's enough to make me cry...
***** It's not really irrelevant. They show Aigis' intentions. She intended to protect him forever. That makes it so much worse when he dies a few seconds later.
*Spoiler warning* The wind feels so nice... This is my first time experiencing spring. But, this season will eventually pass... After fighting alongside you, and facing the world's end... I finally began to understand... ...what it means to live... Thinking for yourself... Not running away... Accepting the inevitable... All things eventually come to an end... Every living thing will one day disappear... Only by accepting this can one discover what they truly want... What the meaning of their life will be... I understand no why I was so tormented by my lack of strength. Protecting others became more than just an order I had to obey. I wanted to do it for my own reasons... I realized this once I decided to try and prevent the Fall. When I thought I might never see you again, something else became clear to me-- what I wanted most. And so, I made up my mind. I decided that I would continue to protect you. I want to be your strength. I know I'm not the only one who can do this... but that's okay. My life will be worth living if it's for this reason... Thank You...
I’m not joking saying this but this is the last song I wanna hear on my deathbed. It sounds so peaceful and ironically enough like the song title, it does bring me memories of my happiest days and it’s a song I cherish too since Persona 3 bought me outta a dark place and made me appreciate life so much. To me, this song and game is more than a video game. It’s something special I now hold dear to my heart.
@@averytubestudiosas much as the ending hurts, him dying means so much for the games mesaage, and characters. Bringing him back is a horrible decision and js bad fanservice, don’t want another Danganronpa 3 where it destroys the ending of a game (2 to be specific)
On this day, 10 years ago, a young boy allowed himself to die so that the world and everyone on it could continue to live. We come here today to honor his memory. May his sacrifice never be forgotten. And may his soul one day find peace. Update: Did I just create a new religion? WHAT IS HAPPENING?!?
When his face appeared when the music started, I felt my heart break into a million pieces again. Just when I thought I'd gotten over his death. Looks I'll never be able to forget this character. :')
Today is March 5th, 2023. 13 years later since the passing of Makoto Yuki… Thank you Makoto for saving and protecting humanity, you will still be missed… RIP Makoto Yuki 1992 - 2010
I know y'all want Minato to return, but think about this. Death has a meaning in SMT games. Dead characters simply don't come back. Take note that all games with MC in it happen *before* January 31st. Also, if Elizabeth frees him from his fate as the seal, he doesn't actually have a body, since it died years ago (take note persona 4 & 5 are in the same world/universe as p3, for example the trip to Tatsumi Port Island in p4 and the references to p3&4 in p5. 20xx could be at any point of time but the p3/4 characters are still alive so it would probably be in the 2020's and that MC's body could be dead for a decade). Yes, Igor can create a new body for him, I'm aware of that, but chances are he would be a Velvet Room attendant instead of going back to their world. Going back to Elizabeth freeing him, it might just be for allowing him to finally rest in peace so he can actually be dead and not half dead, half alive.
i remember stumbling upon this when i was like 8 and after 6 years of trying to remember the title i FINALLY found it again and ive never been happier :) it plays on loop in my mind so often and i never get tired of it never played the game but to whoever was responsible for the music directing and composing: thank you ily

It's been several years since i finished Persona 3, the ending was a huge tearjerker for me as well, but i can't help my self but wonder, why does Makoto's death was so sad? I finally came up with my answer. SPOILER ALERT Makoto lost his family when he was young, i just assume that he grew up all by himself since then. He often portrayed as an emo teenager with almost no feelings or care for his surroundings, until he moved to Gekkoukan joined SEES . This characterization is pretty much the result of he witnessing death so early, but that's not just it, after losing his teammates, knowing that his friends have lost someone as well - specifically their family (Yukari, Mitsuru, Ken, and Akihiko). At the beginning, he almost doesn't care about others feelings, but after the time he spends with his friends and social links, he slowly able to find a meaning to life, even after warned that everything will eventually comes to an end. Thanatos, the persona of death arcana , is naught just Pharos or Ryoji, but is Makoto's view of his surroundings, DEATH. He keep witnessing death over and over again, but those deaths also gave a huge motivation for him and his friends to be stronger and move on, this realization made him able to find meanings of life behind death. Yet, his realization about what it means to live, ultimately lead to his sacrifice to save the world and his friends, with a price of his soul, on his own free will. But nevertheless, he's fine with his decision, for he already aware that everything will die eventually. In my conclusion, Makoto's death teaches that everything will eventually come to an end, but that's why we have to live our lives with all of our strength, for life is supposed to be cherished in our heart with all people we come across and the moment we spent together, that so we can be happy and satisfied with the live we have spent. Rest in Piece, Makoto Yuki. *CRIES*
@@bamboozler3302 he’s not in persona 4 arena, persona 4 references his death, and q and q2 the teams are transported from their respective times meaning minato and sees were transported to the games before his death
Minato is being hung by cherry tree branches. ._. The cherry tree petals are falling too. This actually makes sense, considering the fact that falling cherry petals mean death in Japan. Those leaves, along with the cherry branches closing in around Minato's neck, are basically foretelling death. You can be spoiled by looking at this seemingly innocent image. :O
Its been a year Since that day... I last saw your smile The smile that Bloomed flowers Sprinkled colours In the desert I lived in The desert i live in now May still be a desert But it's not so barren anymore Nor is it so silent For there are flowers blooming in the sand And water flowing where one couldn't have imagined Perhaps these are changes none can see But that doesn't change the value Of what you have done And what the other smiles have done It has filled my soul With such joy i never felt before And I am so grateful for everything There's nothing i can do anymore to show that But i hope you can see from there Smiling your bright smile 05-03-2010
Its march 5 again..... I dont know how many persona protagonist there will be in the future, but Minato will always be the best one out of them ...at least for me.
I want to be your strength I know I'm not the only one who can do this But that's okay... My life will be worth living if it's for this reason... Thank you...
What makes it more sad for me is that Makoto was dying and Aigis just barely tells you how much he means to her in time before passing away, Can confirm robots get depressed in the Answer
Fiend Matador Slayer of a Thousand Noobs I have to say that i don't understand how there are people out there who say this,doesn't people cry with movies,books,TV series...?
Never played persona..only cruised through the soundtracks, which I heard in highschool. Now we're years ahead of it, and this song is a chest puncher now.
'You don't have to save the world to find meaning in life... Sometimes all you need is something simple, like someine to take care of'. That line had me crying enough and then when I was told to choose 'close your eyes' I was crying for MONTHS!
I've never played Persona 3, but I've heard of this song a lot, and now that Persona 3 Reloaded is coming, I can't wait to experience this in game (hopefully).
"The sun keeps shining, The moon keeps gleaming, The landscapes keep changing, Life may keep moving on, Sometimes a lot more dull, Sometimes a lot more brighter, But your memories live on, For what you gave to us, Was more than just a few memories." 5/3/19
Well, even if it's not canon, I still find the Sonic 2's Master System bad ending sad. Sonic looking the sky, seeing his friend Tails in Moon's reflection, knowing he failed to save his only brother from Eggman's tirany and saying to himself: "I miss you, buddy..."
Anyone else find this song relevant in life now due to most schools closing and classes being online only now? Looking back at the photos I've taken at my college just makes this song play in my head.
11 years ago today a boy saved us all from our own hope for the end using himself as the seal, leaving behind all the friends he had made along the way. Let us remember him not in sadnesses but in joy for the time with spent with him
It's another year that I'm here. This song will never stop being special to me, nor does the game for fundamentally changing my life. I'm still living for this year, too, and as corny as it is, I hope that eases his burden a little bit.
it used to be. it was only a placeholder. but dont worry, yandev stole a bunch of other ideas from the persona series. like the "No words can express the sense of loss we feel as a result of this terrible tragedy" line
I don’t know why but this song always gives me a sense of memories. It’s a hard thing to describe but every time I listen to this I feel like I am rethinking on a great memory.
@@HYDEinallcapstrue, like persona 3 makes me turned into a crybaby. And persona 2 ending make me question my entire life existance Both of them are tragic, and both of them ( Tatsuya and Makoto ) deserved better than the fate they are facing But nonetheless, they are the best persona mc
Coming from someone who’s about to enter his final year of high school, listening to this really cements the fact that the near 13 years that i’ve spent with everyone is about to be over, but I can still cherish those memories and the friends who helped made them along the way.
Although I came here every 5th of March but this year I come earlier because of the P5R, I never stop appreciate how this game change the way I interpret my meaning of life
I think in all Personas I think 3 genuinely made me feel despair but also a sense of accomplishment and when Aigis is comforting you when this track played not gonna lie a tear was shed its such a powerful ending and it astonishes me that we have not had such an emotionally gripping ending in Persona let alone a JRPG (at least for me) in a while and this game is over 10 years old now.
My vow and my blood oath to this man is that no matter if I can’t escape death, I’ll always appreciate the friends and experiences I have made in life. Makoto/Minato thank you for being our friend. Now you’re gone and there’s others who would have loved to meet you, fighting shadows and saving the world and all your friends are safe… take care partner.
This song is so relaxing. I genuinely only search it up once a year, even though I don’t play video games anymore. This game still has a huge impact on my life when I played it way back in 2009.
13 years ago, a special boy gave his life, so his friends and the rest of the world could have peace and continue to live. R.I.P Makoto Yuki: 1992-2010
Hey, how have you been? I hope you have been well, Another year has passed, A year which brought many changes, And it's been rough, But these are changes that you gave your life, For us to experience, And for that, you are always in our hearts, Even as time passes, memories linger on, Rest in eternal peace, sleeping beauty, We will carry on, to see the light of day. 5th march ♥️
Holy shit, this game hits hard. Minato gave his life to save the world but only his friends knew. He pushed himself for a month to keep the group’s promise yet he was functionally dead at this point. He found his answer to life which was fucking powerful. He’s in a coma right now as the seal. I hope Elizabeth gets to free his soul so he may Rest In Peace.
Many people gaze at the long horizon of life. The fleeting monents of joy, pain, anger and anguish. Many wish for it to end. The never-ending cycle of emotion. But underneath the bleekness lies a beautiful tranquility. The fight towards that tranquilty is a tough one, however, the strength to persevere through all hardships is the truth strength of human will.
Persona 3 is a great game and even movies as well. It means a lot to me. Makoto, thank you for everything you have accomplished so far. I just wanted to say that you are just amazing person I thought you'd be. I just wish you spend time together with your friends to have some fun. But you, you are different, Makoto, I believe that Aigis is correct. She will always protect you and she wants to see you with her very eyes, but since you're gone, Aigis will always thinking about you. That's why I really want Elizabeth to free you from the seal so you can return to the normal world to see your friends, your team and especially Aigis because she cares about you the most. I'm really glad that your team defeated Erebus so your death won't be in vain. So please, hang in there. Goodbye, Makoto Yuki. Rest peacefully. You are the best protagonist there is.
March 5, 2010... it's been 13 long years. Never forget Makoto Yuki. Even listening to the music alone is enough to bring me to tears. Thinking about getting FES for my PS2 instead of P3P for the PS5 after mixed reviews for it.
It's been a while, since I came to see you, It's sad that I don't come to see you as often, Back in the days, it used to be every day, but now it's once in a while, Maybe in the future, it will be even more spaced between, But every once in a while, your thought comes, Just like the 5th of march every year, I get reminded of our times together, The company you gave me, The lessons you taught me, All of which shaped me into who I am today, A lot of things has happened in the year that passed, Some good, some bad, some terrible, But the most important one, I saw the value of life in the world that you so dearly protected, And so, thank you once again, We will carry on living, and living in the way that allows us to appreciate life to the fullest, I hope you are at peace and doing well, Sayonara, Sleep well, Minato Arisato, till we meet again. 5th March, 2021.
Looking at Persona 5's year calendar, as well as the fact that Rise turned 20, Elizabeth has been searching for 5-6 years now.......
Spideyfan X Gaming I REALLY HOPE that the next Persona is about Elizabeth, or ATLEAST give us some indication of Elizabeth journey. :, (
Free my boi Makoto. You can do it Elizabeth!
._. that would be a great surprise on a new persona if they free him
I highly doubt it would be a mainline persona game, but a spinoff game like that is possible.

I know y'all want Minato to return, but think about this.
Death has a meaning in SMT games. Dead characters simply don't come back. Take note that all games with MC in it happen *before* January 31st.
Also, if Elizabeth frees him from his fate as the seal, he doesn't actually have a body, since it died years ago (take note persona 4 & 5 are in the same world/universe as p3, for example the trip to Tatsumi Port Island in p4 and the references to p3&4 in p5. 20xx could be at any point of time but the p3/4 characters are still alive so it would probably be in the 2020's and that MC's body could be dead for a decade).
Yes, Igor can create a new body for him, I'm aware of that, but chances are he would be a Velvet Room attendant instead of going back to their world.
Going back to Elizabeth freeing him, it might just be for allowing him to finally rest in peace so he can actually be dead and not half dead, half alive.
I hope in p6 there is a party member who is minato reborn: same soul, different body
I just want to know that he is finally able to rest. He deserv it.
Main theory - P5 takes place in 2016 since calendar is the same

It's been several years since i finished Persona 3, the ending was a huge tearjerker for me as well, but i can't help my self but wonder, why does Makoto's death was so sad? I finally came up with my answer.
SPOILER ALERT
Makoto lost his family when he was young, i just assume that he grew up all by himself since then. He often portrayed as an emo teenager with almost no feelings or care for his surroundings, until he moved to Gekkoukan joined SEES . This characterization is pretty much the result of he witnessing death so early, but that's not just it, after losing his teammates, knowing that his friends have lost someone as well - specifically their family (Yukari, Mitsuru, Ken, and Akihiko).
At the beginning, he almost doesn't care about others feelings, but after the time he spends with his friends and social links, he slowly able to find a meaning to life, even after warned that everything will eventually comes to an end.
Thanatos, the persona of death arcana , is naught just Pharos or Ryoji, but is Makoto's view of his surroundings, DEATH. He keep witnessing death over and over again, but those deaths also gave a huge motivation for him and his friends to be stronger and move on, this realization made him able to find meanings of life behind death.
Yet, his realization about what it means to live, ultimately lead to his sacrifice to save the world and his friends, with a price of his soul, on his own free will. But nevertheless, he's fine with his decision, for he already aware that everything will die eventually.
In my conclusion, Makoto's death teaches that everything will eventually come to an end, but that's why we have to live our lives with all of our strength, for life is supposed to be cherished in our heart with all people we come across and the moment we spent together, that so we can be happy and satisfied with the live we have spent.
Rest in Piece, Makoto Yuki.
*CRIES*
Thank you, Makoto Yuki.
Thank you 😭
Ya'll sad... Until you realize hes alive in some mediums of Persona 4, Persona 4 Arena and Persona Q
@@bamboozler3302 he’s not in persona 4 arena, persona 4 references his death, and q and q2 the teams are transported from their respective times meaning minato and sees were transported to the games before his death
Minato is being hung by cherry tree branches. ._.
The cherry tree petals are falling too.
This actually makes sense, considering the fact that falling cherry petals mean death in Japan. Those leaves, along with the cherry branches closing in around Minato's neck, are basically foretelling death.
You can be spoiled by looking at this seemingly innocent image. :O
Shino illustrator XD You're welcome.
I didn't even realize it was a noose shape. Holy shit.
It's Makoto, not Minato xD

he has no name lol

+Minato Arisato Ah... the irony
Its been a year
Since that day...
I last saw your smile
The smile that
Bloomed flowers
Sprinkled colours
In the desert
I lived in
The desert i live in now
May still be a desert
But it's not so barren anymore
Nor is it so silent
For there are flowers blooming in the sand
And water flowing where one couldn't have imagined
Perhaps these are changes none can see
But that doesn't change the value
Of what you have done
And what the other smiles have done
It has filled my soul
With such joy i never felt before
And I am so grateful for everything
There's nothing i can do anymore to show that
But i hope you can see from there
Smiling your bright smile

Persona 4 and 5 are really awesome but Persona 3 will always be my favorite and will have a special place in my heart
Its march 5 again..... I dont know how many persona protagonist there will be in the future, but Minato will always be the best one out of them ...at least for me.
And the fact that he is first strongest persona user too..... I saw on google, idk if it's actually true 😔
@@averageweeb831 He's the only holder of the Universe Arcana in Persona history, that alone makes him the most powerful
Yu is second because he has the world

But that's okay...

Thank you.
[TLG] Grovyle Media™ Wtf I just saw you in a Earthbound song.
What makes it more sad for me is that Makoto was dying and Aigis just barely tells you how much he means to her in time before passing away, Can confirm robots get depressed in the Answer
Never forget......10 years ago today .... R.I.P. minato

Fiend Matador Slayer of a Thousand Noobs I have to say that i don't understand how there are people out there who say this,doesn't people cry with movies,books,TV series...?
AlfonLawliet Read the entire comment next time.
Never played persona..only cruised through the soundtracks, which I heard in highschool. Now we're years ahead of it, and this song is a chest puncher now.
'You don't have to save the world to find meaning in life... Sometimes all you need is something simple, like someine to take care of'.
That line had me crying enough and then when I was told to choose 'close your eyes' I was crying for MONTHS!
It's a tradition of us to come here on 3/5 so that the sacrifice that this man made is never forgotten
I've never played Persona 3, but I've heard of this song a lot, and now that Persona 3 Reloaded is coming, I can't wait to experience this in game (hopefully).
it will be worth it!
Once again we are here.
March 5, the day of promise.
Rest in peace Makoto.
"Please get some rest......I'll stay right here with you.....soon...all you friends will be here by your side"
Don't cry......DON'T FUCKING CRY!!!!
"The sun keeps shining,
The moon keeps gleaming,
The landscapes keep changing,
Life may keep moving on,
Sometimes a lot more dull,
Sometimes a lot more brighter,
But your memories live on,
For what you gave to us,
Was more than just a few memories."

And I thought other video game endings were sad...
From what I herd persona 2 ending was sad I'm still playing through that one
Man, persona...
*Cough* Mother 3
@@kuma6572 cough cough Mario galaxy storybook ending
Well, even if it's not canon, I still find the Sonic 2's Master System bad ending sad. Sonic looking the sky, seeing his friend Tails in Moon's reflection, knowing he failed to save his only brother from Eggman's tirany and saying to himself:
"I miss you, buddy..."
Anyone else find this song relevant in life now due to most schools closing and classes being online only now? Looking back at the photos I've taken at my college just makes this song play in my head.
damn memento mori is such a chilling word, but definitely reminds you to live your life to the fullest and regret nothing.
I hope they don't change this song in Reload, or at least not too much. It represents the atmosphere of the last part of the game perfectly.
They made it more depressing
@@ElPothead I just listened to it
I can't wait for this game istg
It's been 10 years...
I wonder if they'll ever be freed from the seal.
To change the hearts of every person about death so he can be freed.
Its impossible
05/03, this time of 2020. It's been so long...and this is still one of my favourite games ever. Rest in peace, door-kun.
This music is so powerful. I'm holding back tears rn.
Don't cry....just be happy he was alive to defeat nyx
From the thumbnail I legitimately though that was a noose around Makoto's neck and he was being yanked by it.
Yea me too lol
Same.
He was was choked by a tree as his life force was given to the seal
11 years ago today a boy saved us all from our own hope for the end using himself as the seal, leaving behind all the friends he had made along the way. Let us remember him not in sadnesses but in joy for the time with spent with him
It's that time of the year again. 5th March. The day we all gather to honor our memories of him.
It's another year that I'm here. This song will never stop being special to me, nor does the game for fundamentally changing my life. I'm still living for this year, too, and as corny as it is, I hope that eases his burden a little bit.
You’re all telling me this masterpiece is somewhere in Yandere Simulator?
*look how they massacred my boi*
It was in yansim from what ik since I've never played it I might not be 100% correct
it used to be. it was only a placeholder. but dont worry, yandev stole a bunch of other ideas from the persona series. like the "No words can express the sense of loss we feel as a result of this terrible tragedy" line
trash shouldn't even be considered when u have art like this
so yea id wanna forget yansim use- i mean stole this
I..this was literally used in ONE build though, from 2014.

Rest in everlasting tranquility, Makoto. It's been 10 years
I don’t know why but this song always gives me a sense of memories. It’s a hard thing to describe but every time I listen to this I feel like I am rethinking on a great memory.
P3 had the most powerful ending in the Persona series change my mind.
No need to change it, cause you're right.
Persona 2 Eternal Punishment's ending is a different kind of heartbreaking, but it's still a hard choice between the two.
@@HYDEinallcapstrue, like persona 3 makes me turned into a crybaby. And persona 2 ending make me question my entire life existance
Both of them are tragic, and both of them ( Tatsuya and Makoto ) deserved better than the fate they are facing
But nonetheless, they are the best persona mc

I want to play this song at my funeral...

Same with me. I wanted to play this song for my dead laptop.
Same but when carrying the coffin astronomia of course.
Same 😭
Coming from someone who’s about to enter his final year of high school, listening to this really cements the fact that the near 13 years that i’ve spent with everyone is about to be over, but I can still cherish those memories and the friends who helped made them along the way.
Once again, the promised day has come, and we come here to honor the young man who gave everything to protect everyone.
Although I came here every 5th of March but this year I come earlier because of the P5R, I never stop appreciate how this game change the way I interpret my meaning of life
I don't know if you've played P3R yet but they somehow managed to top this song and this moment from fes
I think in all Personas I think 3 genuinely made me feel despair but also a sense of accomplishment and when Aigis is comforting you when this track played not gonna lie a tear was shed its such a powerful ending and it astonishes me that we have not had such an emotionally gripping ending in Persona let alone a JRPG (at least for me) in a while and this game is over 10 years old now.
Those who came here because of Yandere Sim will never understand what this song actually means. *Sniffle*
so true.. ;-;
I never even realized this was in Yandere Sim XD
I sort of do

*Walks away crying a little*
My vow and my blood oath to this man is that no matter if I can’t escape death, I’ll always appreciate the friends and experiences I have made in life. Makoto/Minato thank you for being our friend. Now you’re gone and there’s others who would have loved to meet you, fighting shadows and saving the world and all your friends are safe… take care partner.
I can honestly say that after playing persona 3 and 4 I walked away as a different person.
Closing off this year’s March 5th by listening to this.
The Picture is So Perfect!
This song is so relaxing. I genuinely only search it up once a year, even though I don’t play video games anymore. This game still has a huge impact on my life when I played it way back in 2009.
13 years ago, a special boy gave his life, so his friends and the rest of the world could have peace and continue to live.
R.I.P Makoto Yuki: 1992-2010
Hey, how have you been?
I hope you have been well,
Another year has passed,
A year which brought many changes,
And it's been rough,
But these are changes that you gave your life,
For us to experience,
And for that, you are always in our hearts,
Even as time passes, memories linger on,
Rest in eternal peace, sleeping beauty,
We will carry on, to see the light of day.
5th march ♥️
So many comments about March 5th. We all should march up to the White House and demand March 5th be called, "Makoto Yuki/ Minato Arisato Day"
Also I like how every year you come back and comment here. Bless your soul
@@MoriMoon hey, this is the person who wrote it. This is my other account. Thank you!
@@MoriMoon It definitely should be called as the Persona day.
@@impaledstudios1772 No problem
I played it for the first time a couple months ago, and damn that ending hits. Happy March 5th everybody
And in the blink of an eye, another year passes. Happy March 5th everyone! I hope you're spending it with the people you love!
This song hits different now that we’re in quarantine😭
Holy shit, this game hits hard. Minato gave his life to save the world but only his friends knew. He pushed himself for a month to keep the group’s promise yet he was functionally dead at this point. He found his answer to life which was fucking powerful. He’s in a coma right now as the seal. I hope Elizabeth gets to free his soul so he may Rest In Peace.
Many people gaze at the long horizon of life. The fleeting monents of joy, pain, anger and anguish. Many wish for it to end. The never-ending cycle of emotion. But underneath the bleekness lies a beautiful tranquility. The fight towards that tranquilty is a tough one, however, the strength to persevere through all hardships is the truth strength of human will.
We'll miss you makoto... I know you'll make it..
Seals.-.
Rip makoto.
Fly high.
It's been 11 years since he died. Rest in peace Makoto/Minato, we love you
Came here to pay respects to one of the best protagonists in gaming history. R.I.P. Makoto/Minato/Door kun. 💙💙
Persona 3 is a great game and even movies as well. It means a lot to me.
Makoto, thank you for everything you have accomplished so far.
I just wanted to say that you are just amazing person I thought you'd be.
I just wish you spend time together with your friends to have some fun.
But you, you are different, Makoto, I believe that Aigis is correct. She will always protect you and she wants to see you with her very eyes, but since you're gone, Aigis will always thinking about you.
That's why I really want Elizabeth to free you from the seal so you can return to the normal world to see your friends, your team and especially Aigis because she cares about you the most.
I'm really glad that your team defeated Erebus so your death won't be in vain.
So please, hang in there.
Goodbye, Makoto Yuki.
Rest peacefully.
You are the best protagonist there is.
Amen
Who’s prepared to see him die again

Who is ready to get destroyed by feels with Persona reloaded? Me for sure 14 years after I played the original 3.
I haven't played P3 in close to a year or two now, but I still got punched right in the feels with this song and that heartfelt smile...

Aww crap, it's march 5th today in 2022. Here comes the feels for the p3 protag. R.I.P. Makoto Yuki.
It's been a while, since I came to see you,
It's sad that I don't come to see you as often,
Back in the days, it used to be every day, but now it's once in a while,
Maybe in the future, it will be even more spaced between,
But every once in a while, your thought comes,
Just like the 5th of march every year,
I get reminded of our times together,
The company you gave me,
The lessons you taught me,
All of which shaped me into who I am today,
A lot of things has happened in the year that passed,
Some good, some bad, some terrible,
But the most important one, I saw the value of life in the world that you so dearly protected,
And so, thank you once again,
We will carry on living, and living in the way that allows us to appreciate life to the fullest,
I hope you are at peace and doing well,
Sayonara, Sleep well,
Minato Arisato, till we meet again.
