Agree, his Linked episode in Reload is not even close to be something similar to his entire Social Link in Portable. Plus his extra scene with him dying with Kotone is chef kiss.
@@HtaMuniz You can check the Shinjiro/Kotone or Minako tag in AO3. There's a lot of fanfic there. Some reason, my comment was being deleted without knowing when I tried to put a link in here..
If you know the persona 3 lore then you’ll know that you and shinjiro both die at the end so as shinjiro as a romance chose for the female protagonist is just heart breaking at the end 😭😭😭
I genuinely LOVE how forward the Female Protag is, knowing how strick and overly formal stickler's Japanese people expect women to act it's refreshing to have a character like her. Even more so in that she's the complete opposite of the Persona 3 protag, I don't like Persona 3 considering I played 4 before going back to try out 3 but I love Persona 3 psp with the female protagonist. Here's hoping when the next entry comes out they do something like this again!
To me, Shinjiro is her main man, the same way Yukari's the Main girl for Makoto. Sometimes I imagine a "The Answer (Female Route)" with Shinjiro taking Yukari's place, blaming himself for Kotone's death, wishing he was dead and going even mad. But after finding well... "The Answer" he overcomes all his issues.
@@primsmokes it's easy to say that rise is narukami's girl, yoshizawa is ren's girl, but for makoto i think it genuinely is both aigis and yukari simultaneously, which makes for a very interesting perspective with which to view the answer
@@PancakeItalianoI had a mod to bring him back and can confirm he is to damn powerful and I love it! I think reason being he has power charge and if you up his crit he's just MENTAL
26:30 is an optional scene for the link. Yet you need to go through it to romance Shinjiro. Grant George is definitely the best possible choice to voice him too IMO.
Although I don't have extensive experience with romances in Persona 3, I am impressed with the transparency and objectivity of the protagonist when it comes to confessing intentions or feelings. Due to the fact that the game is based on japanese culture and FeMC is a girl, I am even surprised by the more "straightforward" approach to interaction. There is no theatrics, hesitation, shame or shyness (in the sense of not caring about what others think). In many ways, many girls control or filter their initiatives/desires because society wants them to be more well-behaved, discreet and passive. I was delighted to observe a different posture. This demonstrates personality and authenticity by creating a parallel with real life.
It’s also refreshing to see a romance where the girl makes it clear she wants to be romantically involved no drawn out will they or won’t they or that it is someone who enjoys the chase more than actually being in love
As a kid growing up, I get teased producing female characters like Chun Li or Blaze from Streets of Rage... so I was happy to see in P2 the female character was the lead... P3P let's you understand the supporting characters,so much more by seeing how they react with a female or male in situations ❤❤❤
I completely forgot that you can save shinjiro in the female route. He’s conveniently in a coma most of the game but I think it’s cool that this game gave him another chance at life. I love portable. I refuse to believe it isn’t cannon.
Well I think I messed up his social link I'm only at rank 3with him and is already 9/23 there's and I don't think I.can ever get him to 10 at this.ppont with only like 11 days left to do his social link

Even if you don’t romance him you can clearly see he falls for the MC anyway. Same thing with Aki. Beautiful yet tragic
Yeah but you still gotta max your social link with him to change his fate
I love both so much so that's why I decided to romance both
@@saroxkingdom it must be done
Wait, you don’t mean the male MC, right?
@@ShadowMixes69Clearly since Male MC doesn’t have social links for any of the guys in SEES.
Shinji is the epithome of looks like he could kill you but he's actually a cinnamon roll.
In the anime he cooks treats and dog food for Koromaru.
Wouldn't everyone fit that category? It would be more accurate if it was gonna instead of could
P3R players will never be able to experience the perfection that is shinji's social link
they got nozomi instead its calm

If they ever plan a Female MC DLC update I'll be drowning in happiness 🥹
atleast they won't be able to date ken
That's why I wanted to date Shinji!!
It makes me happy and sad knowing there’s a timeline where Shinjiro survives, but then the one he loves passed away.
Well, he's still gonna die anyways because of the pills. At least they can be together in death.
@@salthesalmonshark6849 The hospital he was in was owned by the kirijo Group so he can technically survive without the pills
We have a fanfic to solve that death problem anyways.
So, I don't care about that much.

I'm not picky. He can bed me or pin me down on his desk and I won't mind at all.

But I heard u could save him if u gave him the pocket watch?
@@ysaina4152 yeah you save him for a little bit but at the end you both die
But Shinji doesn't die if you give him the pocketwatch, he only goes into a coma for a while. It's still heartbreaking bc FeMC dies in his arms :(
@@biancaexhoe-l2800 he will die because of drugs
@@biancaexhoe-l2800 but he still died no matter what since the drug already messing with his body
Shinjiro is my favorite, I love tough and mysterious guys. He's a perfect match for the female MC.
I fully agree
Broody men that are actually softies who melt when they're around their girlfriends my beloved❤

I feel Shinjiro would fit Aigis' role more (given he knows how much a short life must be cherished), with Akihiko taking Yukari's role.
I think Aigis is usually Makoto's main girl
Bro what? If anything it would be akin to not shinji
@@primsmokes it's easy to say that rise is narukami's girl, yoshizawa is ren's girl, but for makoto i think it genuinely is both aigis and yukari simultaneously, which makes for a very interesting perspective with which to view the answer

Also shinji: crits everything on his path like a madman
Then he dies a month later

Shinjiro giving me that lil smirk of his had me pausing the game for a bit, he was doing nothing but also so much at the same time 😭
I wish I knew I had so little time to hang out with him... Only got him to rank 8 since I kept taking Koromaru for walks
Good choice

god i wish shinjiro living would be canon, even if it screws over his character arc. sobbing.
I started the feMC route thinking I’m going to romance akihiko no matter what. Moon rank 6 made me question that decision and my sexuality
The only social link I'll ever romance. THIS GUY IS HOT AF
I fell in love hard with Shinjiro my first play through lol
There's also Akihiko too, don't forget
Oh me too, he’s adorable and so handsome. You have good taste, friend
This is why the Moon arcana serve as an exp boost in Persona 4 ps2.
Don't forget he's also very caring, a good role model for his surrogate little brother, a great cook, and loves animals
22:01 I can’t with this, holy crap
28:35 WHOA
...I'm afraid to ask, but someone has to do it.
They smashed didn't they?
Steamy 🥵
I can only imagine how Kotone looked like during 10/4.
Would have been a gut-wrenching seen if we saw it animated for P3R or a movie, guess there is the theater play though.
Best boi
Yes, best boi
Best boi
I miss him! 😢😭
I physically can't play this game past October 4th ;m;
ugly crying right now... i love his sl so much
Fun fact: this guy has the same voice actor as shuichi from danganronpa V3.
And I called it before looking it up :)
Ken (japanesse Va) same Va Makoto and Nagito from danganronpa
@@gabekyun uh oh
THAT'S WHY I THOUGHT THE VOICE WAS SIMILAR :0
Also Voices 11037 (Leon Kuwata)
Damn even in a different game his girlfriend dies
damn, i remember maxing his social link so he wont die TTTTT aaaaa pls bring back FeMC TTTT
miss him everydayyyy😢
Having finished P3R, I think it’s time to bust out the ol Vita, to see softy Shinjiro, and yuck it up as the forgotten soul, FeMC.
28:41 we all know what happened in that room.... And I couldn't be happier
Why.... Why we never see Fuuka and Shinjiro cooking together in P3/P3FES :(((
You don’t wanna know
Look forward to the remake!
I hope we do in Reloaded
gordon ramsey will happen of they do
@@MangoMagica I don’t think there is such a scene in Reload…
omg i love him sm he’s so different from p3r
Thats why i want to write a P3P The Answer Fanfiction with Shinjiro as Main Character instead of Aigis 😢
I’d read it
Please tell me when you get around to writing it, I would love to read it
If you ever post it somewhere, please send the link, I'd love to read
Yeah bro send the link
it's been 5 months pls drop it 😭😭😭🙏🙏
He’s so cute omg

you're GAY!
How was Fuuka able to buy a bottle of wine?
Iirc normal wine is different from cooking wine, though im not sure so take this with a grain of salt
Cooking wine has added preservatives that give it longer shelf life than drinking wine, but give it a reportedly bitter taste
34:51
So koromaru was able to get to a vet but they couldn’t get shinjiro to a doctor?
I LOVE SHINJIRO FKKKK
fuck i need him pleaaase 😢😢😢
real
real
real
real
real
Anybody want to explain to me what he meant when he said he wasn't gonna hold back anymore?
it means hes not going to hold his seggsual desires back anymore once FEMC decided to stay in the room reluctantly
They're playing at P4 Arena
Um you know 😉
SEGGS
He wasn't gonna hold back his desire and affection for FeMC any longer. Especially considering...
Y'know...
He was planning on dying the next day
Did you know the JP voice actor for Shinjiro, Kazuya Nakai, also plays Gangstalicious from the Boondocks?
Bro you could literally give him more of a popular role like roronoa zoro from one piece
@@TheFilosopherGangstalicious is more funny
@@user-mo8li yeah
I just think the contrast between the 2 are funny
LMFAO
“hoo boy”
God dammit fuuka
Takaya is Derek Stephen Prince using his Vexen voice.
Reason why i need reload with p3p content.
5:53 song?
sounds like “time” but calmer.
Is tender feeling
What does he say at the very end? It gets cut off & I can't seem to find it anywhere ):
He says "I'm glad I met you"
@@sesshyandenvyfreak - Thanks so much!
I need him
this "im glad i met you" BROKE ME
i didnt know he was going to die in the story so i delayed to maxed the level but he died and my social link with him stuck at lvl 9 omg
Rip
How shinjiro survived
He survived because of the pocket watch we gave to him in his social link.
@@NirYuZy you right Guy shoot in pocket
Yeah but how he survived the medicine he supposed to die that day because of that but if you romanced him her survived that too

@@nootnewt3 it's definitely Canon. Just look at it as alternatate story.
Bruh i didnt know he even had a social link
it's only available on persona 3 portable if you play the female character
28:42 2nd least subtle moment other than Elizabeth
27:11
Well I think I messed up his social link I'm only at rank 3with him and is already 9/23 there's and I don't think I.can ever get him to 10 at this.ppont with only like 11 days left to do his social link
I restarted the whole game again when this happened to me when I first played it haha. It was definitely worth it
I also did this and would recommend
I love him too and her ❤
I thought he tower or hermit
But didn't he died
Not on Portable. If you do the Female route he stays alive if you max his social link.
@@faehameThat said, he still leaves the party
goonsona 3 portable
God the voicing in this really wasn't good lol
What is Buddy yapping about?
