(btw it's easier for me to answer your questions or see your request in the discussion tab on my channel.)
I like to keep my channel a friendly place where everyone can share their thoughts and opinions without being berated, so please keep it (not really clean, cuz I love dirty), but courteous.

Love that video
4:30 What really gets me is that Erebus looks like it’s crying. It’s everyone’s pain and fear and loneliness and the desire for it all to stop incarnate.
It’s horrifying… yet it looks so sad.
Also Erebus' makes a crying sound when attacking...
Metis: “It’s just too big”
Me: Well Ridley was too big for smash and now look at where we are now
Well, ask Yaldabaoth or Adam Kadmon
It will fit
void termina agrees
"if we can hit it, we can kill it!"
Mainly cuz they finally realized that everyone's canon sizes are very far apart from each other.
This game tackles themes around death in such an interesting way. Hearing what that boss is kinda threw me for a loop. If I lived in that world apart of me would be in that thing...that's crazy....and this games answer to prevent the human desire of death being seeked out, is to seal away the only thing that can do it. The idea that humanity willingly wants its demise. Goddamn I don't remember this game being so complex in its depressing themes.
More like Erebus is born from the idea that Death means the end of suffering, hence that
p6 repressent evil
@@michaeljames6737 wouldn't mind imagine we get a Protagonist whos anti hero
Shin megami tensei common core plot stories in a nutshell
Erebus is something born of the Collective Unconsciousness, he represents the malice of the humans, the hatred, the wish to kill... And the wish to die.
Because twisted are the ways of the Collective Unconsciousness.
That moment when Akasha Arts missed
Oof
A power charged one at that.
And your pfp describes that emotion
Should have begged Atlus for free Hassou tobi.

I want non-canon spin-off where Elizabeth saves Door-kun...
I want it canon dude. Door-Kun MUST be saved
@@gabrielmoreth4482 that would ruin the ending of the game if it was canon so no dont make it canon
@@shibeking1809 People always say this, but it really wouldn't. Death is the theme of the game sure, but it's one of the many themes. People harp on the idea of idea of "death" as the game's theme, but it's a lot more than that. The themes of choice, responsibility, and how you choose to live your life are even more important to the message the game's trying to get across. If the Protag came back to life it'd be fine honestly
Persona 6: door
@@crimsonskrub8984 imagine if he was ressurected, but became one of the attendents of the Velvet Room? We could have him pair up with Elizabeth and be the receptionists of one of the new gamea
Every year, Erebus grows larger. It just feels like the seal is going to break anytime now. So many wishing for the release of death. So many wishing for it all to end already. It didn't feel like this back then. Or maybe it did?
I think this boss fight is super creepy. The fact that ALL of humanity wishes for death deep down and in turn creates Erebus is so disturbing. However, I do have a theory that Atlus is linking all these games together (P3,4,5) and is slowly building to the fact that humanity is gaining the will to live. In P5 you change the whole public's cognition. However, we still dont know if Mementos was/is the entire planet's cognitive palace or if it's just Japan. I could go on but I think it would just be way to long.
Kind of close. Even though the themes of the neo-era mainline games are different, they are interconnected in terms of psychology. Persona 3 give a concept of the evil within humanity's heart. The Dark Hour is a worldwide event as proven in the movie, though the Shadows were concentrated in Tatsumi Port Island, the place of the Shadow research. The Abyss of Time kind of reveal part of the truth of the researchers motivation to bring the fall; letting Erebus to make contact with Nyx to end all lives.
For the P4 and 5 teams, the events are concentrated on the towns/cities they live. The Midnight Channel/TV World is the domain of Inaba's collective unconsciousness/cognition, while mementos is the domain of Tokyo vice versa. However, considering how the themes, though different but interconnected, if the dark influence spreads, it might lead to disastrous results by chain reactions. In a sense, the generations post 3, making the right choices kind of ensure that the past teams efforts won't go in vain. It was kind of proven in Arena when the surviving SEES were alarmed by the high Shadow reading in Inaba December 2011, but put to an end by the Investigation Team lead by Yu.
Royal and Scramble suggests researchers attempting to pry into/access the cognition/Shadow world, even worse, might try to initate their events out of their selfish desires. This also enforces Jose's statemts of more beings watching over humankind and "they" can't humans be. What he likely mean is the past generations, the Velvet Room residents and past/current/future enemies that the generations have to face.Considering the events, it can be assumed that the P5 gen stories will continue for a while.
If you would think of EVERYONE's mementos, I have the theory that it's going to be the Earth itself, and underneath it.. below to the depths of Hell
You realize just because they change people's desired does not mean they can stop the wanting of death right? It's literally a part of humanity and will always be there regardless The entire world would have to change and that's just not possible
@@yoyo3725 But there's a difference between human' accepting death as an inevitable eventuality versus wanting to end everything now, forever. The upright Death card represents not just physical death, but also metaphorical death and change. It forms the boundary between "normal" mysteries (love, kings and queens, strength and sacrifice) and more esoteric ones (heaven and hell, sun and moon, final judgement). Individual humans may die, but humanity as a whole must retain the will to live, thrive and grow, as more and more passing generations continue to build it into greatness. What SEES was trying to stop was the will of humanity as a whole giving up, and letting Nyx end the world as a result, and fretting over one man's sacrifice almost dooms humanity again.
@@yoyo3725well, destroying everytime one of this creations change humanity, but a new one born again, like Nyalatoteph, Erebus, Izanami and Yaldabaoth...

I found this to be really funny for some reason.

A change of heart to make humanity accept death and live their lives to the fullest...
Atlus, Persona 5 Royal.
Make it happen
Paper Luigi Atlus is hinting at it every game
This
Paper Luigi you might wanna rephrase that... a change of heart where ppl DON'T accept death and live life to the fullest...

They already stole the heart of the general public
Erebus is legitimately the most disturbing thing I think I have ever seen in any video game.
Two human torsos attached to each other at the waist with goat horns? Fuck that!

@@chaos_blue1089 *ONTO MEMENTOS WE GO*
Atlus has one chance with Persona 5 Royal. Maybe it can be the true final boss or an epilogue with better writing and characterization than The Answer
I highly doubt it tho. The next theme for P5: Royal is stopping an unknown entity from granting wishes, thus abusing such power...
I wonder if the phantom thieves killed erebus completely inadvertently? They stole mementos's treasure which is humanities palace isin't it? If that's the case humanity's hearts will no longer wish for death. Futaba wanted to die and thought she should die but after the change of heart she did not want to anymore.
Doubt it, Erebus is humanity’s subconcious will, no human realises this. The memento’s treasure on the other hand, people will admit to some degree.
TheNapster153 fair enough. It’s better off that way anyway it would kind of ruin the message of persona 3
Beside, The Holy Grail came from humanity's wish to be ruled by unknown power so they can lead their life without worry while Erebus came to fruition from humanity's wish to touch death, to embrace it, to know it, think of those suicidal people, Erebus born from such minds. The thing is, human fear death but they seek salvation in it too. Erebus becomes twisted because of it
Mementos isn't the Palace of humanity, just the one that belong to Tokyo's masses. And The Holy Grail is the representation of the desire for perfectly orderly society, not for death.
Put this way. Royal added a new section of Mementos in the third semester. The reaper still haunts the halls of this new section despite the theives taking Humaity’s treasure. Ergo, Erebus still lives, and Door-kun is still the lock.
I know people have their issues with the Answer, but man no boss has ever yanked at my heart out of no where like Erebus has. It’s such a shockingly sad, yet tragically obvious, reason why it exists. All people, at one point or another, wish for death in some way. Even if for the briefest moment, entertaining the idea of dying helped give birth to this thing. It makes me tear up every time the characters come to that realization. It also makes this interesting dichotomy between the Journey and the Answer. In the Journey, the lesson is that even though death is inevitable, we shouldn’t live every waking moment in fear of it. In the Answer, the lesson is even though death is inevitable, we shouldn’t be yearning for it so much that we forget to live. This game is something else man

Didn't they already do that?
@@justjoking5252 no they didn't. Yaldabaoth was a god that messed with the people and the PT took care of the trouble he caused. But it didn't stop everything (sorry my Englisch is bad)
@@Asehhar Your english is fine.
@@neutralplayeroflol5722 They would need to go to the Palace of humanity to go there. Now the question is, does it exists and where is it ?
The overarching themes of P3, 4 and 5:
3: Death is inevitable
4: Fate is not set in stone
5: s o c i e t y
Exactly, people really Overshadowing P4 and 3 just because P5 is all about society
I would argue P5 is about rebellion along with abuse of power, not just society
4: Something something, the truth
I, uh, don't know about that one. 3 deals with death and its inevitability, yes- but it's also surprisingly optimistic. Life's too short to mourn about death- so live your life to the fullest and, when you do pass on- don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.
4, in contrast, deals with truth and accepting yourself- it's arguably darker in some aspects then P3 is, in the sense that the truth in P4? It hurts. The truth is ugly, it's terrifying- it's all those things and more- but it's still the truth. Be honest with yourself- even if you don't like it, you still have to accept it. And once you accept it- once you accept the ugliness- you can move on and live happier.
5 is... simultaneously incredibly optimistic while being incredibly depressing once you take a look back at it. Let's break it down real quick- 5 deals with society and freedom- the corruption of society and how it's so corrupt, it needs kids to fix it. And they do! They convince humanity to simultaneously reject Yaldabaoth and believe in the PTs and restore order to society- bringing about peace and happiness-
Except not really, because turns out society just sucks and the status quo continues. Joker gets arrested by the cops and government, who, even absent Yaldabaoth's influence, still want to put an innocent man away and ultimately only gets out because of his Confidants- and it's the point that Atlus acknowledges, that society's just too huge, too large to change completely without needing an enormous amount of power. It's frustrating, but simultaneously, it's *realistic*- because society's not something you can fix 'just' by stealing hearts- and it's hugely different then every other Persona Game, where there's no real answer given as to how one ought to address such an issue- because as it turns out, Atlus can't fix society. Not unless Yaldabaoth or another Demiurge shows up.
What about P1 and P2?
You know what? I can't even tell if Fuuka is being sarcastic anymore.
6:03 tell that to Ridley
HOW DO YOU LIKE THEM APPLES
I hope The Answer also gets a movie
After al this time ? There's no possible way.
@@corruptedteka OVA would suit more better. The Answer is too short to adapt into a movie.
I would like to think of that, too. We should get a scene of Aigis hugging Yukari when she apologizes to her.
So, based on this DLC can we say that Yukari was in love with Minato?
Pretty much
This wasn't DLC. This was a story continuation added to only the FES version.
@@Max1996YT it's just a way of referring to the story using the terminology we have today with the DLC.
I'm pretty awareness that this story isn't a DLC though.
@@Demi-fiend still an inaccurate way to describe it, since even in modern day terms, this isnt a downloaded thing. Just call it an extra scenario.
@@atelierbagur3831 Just call it an expansion.

Atlus needs to bring my boy yuki/minato back or something because technically he's the only persona mc to be dead.
Well when he became the seal, he pretty much sacrificed his own life to protect others, so...
I know that much but the thing is that Elizabeth is trying to find a way to bring him back. That's the reason why she left the velvet room
Umm..Tatsuya's dead too.
@@secretiveplottersupremacy2043 not really, he's just chilling on the Other Side for who knows how long
@@somerandom6883 In order to do that, Elizabeth has 3 options
1.Try to separate all 12 shadows and contain those shadows without killing them in some way
2.A wild card user that has a power which is exact same of the universe arcana and switch places(or use herself instead)
or 3(for a more convoluted story line)
3.Every Persona User joined forces and enter the Collective Unconscious and there they can make a big impact to the world and using all of their strength to free Door-kun
Thats a really cool boss design, btw.
So many clutches
26:04 That should be made as a 'what if' episode.
"What if Yukari Takeba gained the Wild Card?"
Then in the fighting game Elizabeth was able to one shot that with megidolaon... Wtf
That's because Erebus hasn't fully recovered and reached power like what we see here.
@@pavise6333nah, the game doesn't imply anything like that. Erebus came back because so many people wished for death. Elizabeth is just strong enough to take out Erebus/Nyx level threats. Yeah, don't be surprised.
This game is probably the darkest of all the Persona games so far...
Probably because the theme of it is death
꧁༺matt༻꧂ Yeah...the canon deaths of the team members were also extra salt for the wound...
pretty late but i'd say persona 2 is darker, but 3 has some really dark moments and as said before the theme is death
Sylvious Was the overall theme of Persona 2 death as well?
@@dfquartzidn6151 not really but its the only persona game where the characters fail at saving the world, and the protagonist has to live in a completely destroyed world alone.
Why does Erebus do a finger gun pose whenever he's charging dark embrace and uses an ailment move? It's a little funny to me.
If only the phantom thieves could do something ya know to change everyone’s hearts of not wanting death all the time.
The battle song is such a bop 🔥
Cant wait for a remix of this bosses theme
It's possible to do way more damage at this level, broh.
Just one question.
How did I turn out to be the final boss! Yes I know it’s not a real me but still HOW!
Makoto Yuki why not?
Cuz you died.
Just because
Magic and the original plot was so boring they threw you in.
Erebus is a Registered Nurse? Who the hell certified him??
Should've added Akihiko to your party instead of Yukari, you also don't have Makarakarn in any of your personas, making the battle difficult.
If catdog has a shadow...
If Elizabeth manages to one shot this thing but has trouble fighting the reaper and Zeus then is Erebus that weak compared to Zeus and the reaper ?
I think that those two events took place at different times. Elizabeth fought Erebus three years after the events of P3 it's implied that she had gotten stronger. I don't remember when she fought the other two, I'm assuming you are talking about PQ? That takes place way earlier. Before Shinji even died.
when she fought the reaper she sealed all her personas and abilities and legs and arms power and was one shot away from killing him
@@treanaharris2724 Plus she was only a single level weaker then him so they were pretty close in power back then
Elizabeth heavily restricted herself against the Reaper and still was very close to winning, and for all we know she could have let Zeus take control.
This Erebus was thousands of years in the making, with countless people feeding him with power from their desire for death which explains its immense power.
DOOR KUN!
4:45
That is *deep.*
Is this going to get animated??.. goddam Altus
3:17 persona 1 protagonist: are you sure about that.
Honestly I don't want them to ressurect Makoto, saving his soul and letting him rest is enough, but doing so is just ruining the theme of the game honestly
It would be cool to see though if he becomes like an attendant in velvet room
thats girafarig
You will win at life
So basically he became a door
Yea door-kun really became a door
More specifically, he became the chainlocks on a door.
19:50 music sync go crazy
It's so strange for me to see people switch Personas while playing. I beat 3 & 4 with Orpheus and Izangai only. I beat 5 while playing normally, and I don't know how I managed so many at once.
Did you play FES or P3P with Orpheus only? Because Spell Cards make a huge difference
Portable
anyone know the theme that plays during the Erebus cutscene?
I think its called: darkness

24:30 Jerry was here
Man

Yukari shouldve had Mediarahan by now
6:01
thats what she said
misses akasha arts twice
it's over
How do people think the phantom thieves can stop Erebus? Their powers only exist within the metavers besides stopping humanity's desire for death Would it make sense
That is completely baseless. First of all, nowhere in the game does it state that their powers ONLY work in the Metaverse. It's highly implied by the twins the otherwise actually.
Second of all, it depends on the power of the user according to Persona 1. Since the Persona 1 gang are the weakest so far, the phantom theives CAN summon their Personas without the cognitive world.
The thing is for p3 p4 and p5 it's all about salvation, freedom from pain.
Salvation by death, salvation by lies, salvation by control.
Maybe Ameno Sagiri and Yaldaboath were both precisely trying to prevent Nyx's arrival by presenting their own solution. But they both have been rejected by thruth and rebellion
The only solution is acceptation, meanwhile it's our job to fight the other "fake solutions".
@@maxminota9921 you cannot prevent death you cannot remove nyx for good she will always be back

I had to say 2 things how are your moves just so weak I mean you are level 70
You could've used Akihiko because he has better stats than Yukari

The Phantom Thieves blew an opening for you guys to save Minato. Don't waste it.
i can see door-kun
Soooo the seals true purpose was to hold back erebus? How is that supposed to make sense? I really don't get it
Late but Erebus is humanity's subconscious desire for death, and nyx is a being that if reached by Erebus, will make that wish come true. So, door Kun sealed away Erebus
Door kun sealed Nyx
Think of it as a barrier that prevents Erebus and Nyx from connecting
Both him AND Nyx
Bop, and he’s dead
So there are saying I should die
Atlus dropped the ball with Erebus.
Would be cool af if they made Erebus be the sealed form of Nyarlatothep who gotten put to sleep in the end of eternal punishment.
Would make sense in the lore and make people link the older games and checking them.
