  • *************************************!!!READ THE DESCRIPTION!!!***************************************
    So I hear A LOT of comparison of which of the MCs awakening is the coolest and such in various places and since Persona 5 is around the corner for US, I decided to make a video of all the MCs awakenings! Feel free to share which awakening scene you like the most! It goes with out saying, but it contains a Persona 5 spoiler (in fact, all of the Persona games), so WATCH AT YOUR OWN RISK!
    Persona 1's Awakening Scene: 00:00
    Persona 2: Innocent Sin's Awakening Scene: 01:20
    Persona 2 Eternal Punishment's Awakening Scene: 03:34
    Persona 3 (FES)'s Awakening Scene (Male): 05:34
    Persona 3 Portable's Awakening Scene (Female): 09:00
    Persona 3: The Answer's Awakening Scene: 11:33
    Persona 4 (Golden)'s Awakening Scene: 13:53
    Persona 5's Awakening Scene: 15:26
    Last two things to note:
    -My computer is kinda old, so the Persona 2 (Both games) scenes will have a bit of skipping, sorry about that (Also this was on a emulator)!
    -I know 11:33 is not really a awakening per se (or maybe it is), but she is the MC of that game regardless, so roll with it lol..

    In Persona 3 MC overcomes the fear of death, and he doesn't view death as anything scary and that's why he used it without any difficulties unlike Yukari who knows the Evoker isn't an actual gun but she is still afraid of death. The Evoker is the symbol of death and 'shooting' yourself shows you accepting death without fear and accepting your own mortality.
    This is just some info on the Persona 3 awakening because I saw people who are new to the series ask why he tried to commit suicide and weren't joking.

      +Rodrigo Capociama He wasn't repeating; he can still assess the scene on its own merits. Besides, I think he was trying to say that he's basically got no dog in this fight: that is, if he has no bias and no reason to favor P3, not having played it, and still prefers it, then surely that gives credence to the idea that P3's awakening scene really is great.

      @nekotorin 7 років тому +139

      Nameless Protagonist The reason why the protagonist starts as the "Fool" arcana is because the Fool symbolizes "beginning". P3 onwards used the tarot arcanas as a plot element such as "Magician" arcana serves as the tool/push for The Fool to embark his journey and fulfill his destiny.
      Please don't state others as wrong since you're actually the wrong one here, they trapped Maya in the shrine so she won't leave but Tatsuya Sudou decided to burn it.
      The very definition of the Wild Card is that the user can wield multiple personas. Not because it is the Fool Arcana. You should try reading into the tarot meanings way deeper

      I kinda wish persona 6 would try something similar to this. But in this way, the protagonist is still a wild card but it uses the affinity system like in 1 and 2 where depending on their arcana the party will be locked from certain persona. But In the protagonist’s case, Thier limitation on what certain personas they can actually improve (from normal to great) depending which arcana Thier hanging out with. Basically customizing their arcana but that just me

    Persona 5's scene certainly LOOKS the best but just doesn't hold the same intensity as Persona 3's awakening. I think it has to do with the music used in P3's scene coupled with the imagery of Thanatos breaking out of Orpheus that just makes it feel more powerful.

    Persona 5's awakening is easily the new bar, as it should be being the newest. It is an absolutely epic awakening with great animation, awesome music, and Arsene's voice and dialogue are badass (as is he). "Am an thou, thou art I. Call upon my name, and release thy rage!"
    Persona 3 comes in second. Even though the animated sequence leaves much to be desired, the whole concept of shooting yourself in the head to summon your Persona is second only to ripping your face off in terms of hardcore. That and Thanatos ripping apart Orpheus and then violently killing the Shadow is pretty dark and epic. That scene is also the most the MC emotes in the entire game.
    Persona 4 follows with superior music to P3, better animation, and Izanagi is awesome. That being said, its relatively subdued compared to the other two awakenings.

    • @index3876
      @index3876 7 років тому +65

      P3's is by far the best directed of the three. P5's is the coolest in concept and in terms of the thematics that are at play (and obviously no Persona holds a candle to Arsene), but nothing about the cut itself really stands out. There's this false idea out there that good animation means fluidity of movement, but in reality not every cut needs much movement to be effective. P3's awakening is the perfect example of this, with its use of color, of precise, flashing shots, and silent suspense, building up to catharsis -- everything to give the moment suitable weight and substance, and put together an atmosphere. Individual bits and pieces in the other two might strike you as more impressive, but in terms of the composition of the scene, nothing has it beat. Everything in it comes together perfectly.

    tbh I'm a persona 5 fan, but Persona 3 is so cool with the "shooting in the head" concept. Although, the "bloody face from ripping the mask off" is pretty badass too. I think Persona 3's Awakening is cooler, but Persona 5's persona itself and his release into that form was cooler. What happened to Persona 4's awakening is the real question here...

      Late but.. he got a tarot reading by Igor before than he even arrived to Inaba. I understand that crushing the card could mean to rebel against the destiny written in the cards. Appart of that he has a low image of himself so he has no struggles accepting who he is that is the main theme of P4. His inner struggle is different to the others.

    I just love the p3 awakening more than the other because of 3 reasons:
    -he didn't flinch while putting the evoker on his head since he does not care if he dies
    -his persona went from level 3 to level 80+ (and being the very definition of death) in a few seconds, ghastly wailed the boss without putting the fear affliction on him, then went back to low level
    -he then proceeds to kill 2 shadows by himself with his persona that went back to being orpheus (a major greek deity)
    That wasn't like the other awakening, where their persona is represented as powerful, but that's all (and btw, he's the only guy in the story that is able to use 2 persona for a combo attack at the same time)

  • @Krescentwolf
    @Krescentwolf 7 років тому +212

    Im probably in the minority, but i love P4's awakening the most... since it basically proves hes the most accepting of who his inner self is. He doesn't have to 'force' it out... like the others do.
    P3 literally has to mimic killing themselves to get persona's out. And its shown that its actually really dangerous to use this method.
    P5 is less forced than P3... but they still have to tear their masks off by force.
    P4, especially the MC, just summons it with ease. XD

      Lemme tell you why p3's protag is the strogest. HE HAS THE POWER OF THE UNIVERSE! But unfortunately his enemy is unkillable so the protagonist sacreficed his life to become the seal of their enemy. Btw the enemy is not evil it is only the harbinger of death brought by the desires of humans. So if you let p3's protag vs yaldaboath, he can easily defeat him withouth dying.
      P.S
      Don't get triggered, because that's the truth and persona is not really about the power of ones protagonist it is about the concept of each game and the impact that gives to you. (Except for p4d,p4a,p4u and maybe also p3d and p5d)
