Can only imagine if there was a Ryoji ending for FEMC, and he goes, "So , you did it. You performed a miracle by preventing the Fall. Don't worry, I'm not gonna bring about the Fall again. I'm here to pay you one last visit before you go, and I'll go back to sleep right after you do. I admit that even before finding out who I really am, we had a special bond together, and I really did fall for you, and it's not just because part of me was inside you. Now just rest, my love. I'll be by your side, always."
Time I ago I commented about how emotional is Yukari's ending. But now I consider Mitsuru's to be so moving as well, mostly cause the words she says, about forge their love from the scratch and having no intention of letting Minato go.
Yeah but fuuka and Mitsuru didn’t show emotion like yukari like they were a little in the beginning but stopped and just talked normal and casual in a few seconds while yukari kept that emotional tone when she is talking with him
@@ThiccFurryBoi34 Mitsuru had a rigid way of expressing her emotions especially into words, only with the MC she started to learn to letting down the formalities and show her true feelings 😭
ATLUS: Now you date every male character in the game! Me: Can I date Junpei? ATLUS: What? NO! That's weird! Also ATLUS: Here, date a 10 year old, that's totally fine and morally acceptable.
Wouldn’t be the only time Atlus made a dating option morally questionable (see Kawakami in Persona 5 because it’s totally okay to date your homeroom teacher)
wow this comment made me tear up a bit. It's been so long since I loved the Persona series, especially 3. To see how it's grown and gotten so popular...in over 10 years, I'm speechless.
Some of those who dislike her either simply don't like her character (nothing you can do about that), but most of them didn't get her character arc and how it continues in the answer. she tried to detach herself from social relationships from childhood on because she saw what a self-destructive wreck her mother became after her dad suddenly died. Minato comes along, and after months of quiet attraction she slowly allows herself to be vulnerable, faces her feelings and enters a relationship with him. Their love is strong enough that this is the one thing about the journey she doesn't forget. And then the one thing she dreaded happens, he suddenly dies in her arms. Of course she would jump at any chance to bring him back and even turn on the others, and I don't get how someone can't find it tragically beautiful.
@@qwert291 I heard from one UA-camr that it was because she had too many flaws, and thus wouldn't be seen as waifu material by others. She isn't my favorite female, but I do really like.
O. Deniz Gökduman The Answer seems pretty necessary to me, I seriously wasn’t sure whether he was supposed to be dead after finishing the Journey, even though I KNEW he would die, I was like “what was that?” I understand you can’t really look on at your own life after your gone but even a little something after the credits like showing you going limp or something would’ve made it clear, but there’s nothing at all.
For me the answer makes no sense, honestly. It feels more like some fanservice event because people wanted more of the game and some protagonist by Aigis.
What makes this even more sad is that everyone always says something that falls along the lines of “don’t leave me” ,”I’ll always be with you” and they all don’t know that they can’t even go through with that promise because Minato/Kotone is dying
What I think the protagonists said as their final words to who you choose to romance. FeMC: 1:58 "Promise, Akihiko...?" 3:18 "Me too, Shinjiro..." 4:30 "Thank you, Ken..." MC: 7:26 "To the very end, Yukari...?" 8:47 "I'll never leave you, Fuuka..." 10:14 "Till death do us part, Mitsuru..."
Yukari hits me hard.... Not nearly as hard as Aigis but damn she's so genuine and really cares about Makoto like it's unreal and you can really tell especially with Michelle Ruff's incredible voice acting! Yukari is just the best (Yes I'm a Yukari and Aigis simp and I'm damn proud)
6 year age gap, I'd say it's fine when they're both adults EDIT: I no longer agree with this. I did not know what grooming was at the time of this post.
Glad im not the only one that recognizes Ken’s Path is just bad, Its a literal child and teen together, be it pedo shit or something else, its badly done on atlus’ part and shouldnt exist Sure, it “would” be fine if they were both adults, but they arent, and Ken aint even a teen like Kotone/FeMC is, and thats the issue
I mean, it depends. Elizabeth abandons the velvet room to free him, so eventually he would get released. It's just that there isn't much of a story for him anymore so we'd never hear about it. I think the MC dying to protect everyone is more in line with the themes of the game though.
As much as I was torn to pieces by the ending, I think it was a perfect ending. It's the kind of ending that you can feel proud of the protagonist for what he has done, especially after putting dozens of hours into the game. He died so peacefully, the game settings when he died (rooftop, cherry blossoms, music) were so perfect that I think the ending couldn't get any better
@@mondelsson besides, even then, it’s not like he could come back to life in the real world. once he became the seal, his human form was pretty much dead, so there’s no way he could physically come back to life. all that’d happen is that he won’t be suffering saving the world from collapsing
Honestly, I like Yukari's ending the most for Makoto Since she gets to have some closure with him instead of not being able to be there to say goodbye to him in his final moments, so the events of The Answer likely never happened in this timeline
Oh, knock it off already guys. I highly doubt she was actually dating Ken even during the social link. Not even Japan can be THAT weird. Even if it made it seem that way. I feel like maybe Ken fell in love with her, but the love she felt for him was more like the love an older sister feels for her younger brother. I also feel that somewhere along the lines, Ken himself knew that too, but he just kind of went along with it in hopes that she would ONE DAY love him once he got older(tho with the mc passing, he would never get the chance anyway). When you think about it like that, it kinda makes the social link feel not so....weird....I guess.
Look there was concepts of romance referenced but the way this is represented is in a much more acceptable and appropriate manner though the Japanese version is more explicit of it things aren't too bad.
The first time I played the original version on the ps2, it didn't really occur to me that Yuki might have died. It just seemed a natural reaction for the hero of such an adventure to be taking a rest. Altho I understand everybody's frustration. After a long, fulfilling story, featuring likeable characters with decent character progression, I felt as if I was suddenly just cut off too.
Dude I'm already on my 9th playthrough of this game and NG+ since my 2nd playthrough. I didn't get any choices and always have been Aigis. I maxed all the main girls social links. :/ But I did get choices for FeMC.
@@Demi-fiend Yes xD I was told by someone that we get to unlock The Answer on P3P after our 3rd playthrough. Then after that I found myself not yet getting The Answer, then that someone thought and told me it will appear after my 5th playthrough. The result was still the same. Then that someone told me again it was just a misunderstanding she read from somewhere xD I couldn't blame her. I had fun playing P3P and decided to keep playing it.
NJBH 24 lmao why would you believe that shit, do you not know how to Google anything? If you’re really not getting these things it may be because you’re playing on Merciless, I hear that the flag to get these options is not carried over if you pick Merciless, since nothing is carried over, I moved down to Hard from Merciless just because I wanted to make sure I got these extra options should I so choose to play through it again.
If only Yukari had been the cannon ending for Makoto, things could have turned out slightly better for her in The Answer (don’t get me wrong- The Answer is what made me love Yukari the most in P3 for how realistic and flawed she is, but maybe she could have been less abrasive with Aigis if Yukari had been the one to be with Makoto in his final moments).
@@ThiccFurryBoi34 remember- Yukari’s jealousy of Aigis being the one with Makoto in his final moments was a major driving force for why she was such a bitch to Aigis in The Answer.
Ahhhhh 😩 I both love and hate this ending of P3 😭 everything we work for to end like this it’s frustrating . In the eyelids scene I keeping saying “don’t close your eyes don’t close your eyes “. When I played Persona 4 arena I hoped that we could get an Ultimate persona game where the characters from Persona 3 to 5 come together to save the whole world and the possible chance to save P3 main character , the storyline could work
Don't care what anybody else says really, Yukaris scene here and The Answer as a whole just shows that shes the canon love interest imo. She also gets WAY more shit than she deserves cause if anything shes the most human and relatable party member. In The Answer everybody apparently went through the grieving process in record time while she was still acting the way someone who just lost a close friend/lover very recently
When Atlus was making Persona 3, Yukari was originally gonna be the MC's canon love interest but they scrapped it when they decided to go with Social Links instead.
@@Binks7077idk what he is talking about. There is no cannon ending or romance. You get to decide the ending of the game since you are the main character. Ultimately you decide and that’s a beautiful thing
this all truly depends on a lot of specific details and context in order to decide right from wrong. If you wish to do something like that that would only be acceptable under certain criteria but in the end it is too hard to try to find a way around it when there are so many options one can take when focusing on getting to a goal. Things can change up a bit as you take different options but in the end whatever you do try not to get canceled on twitter.
yes, but not by a lot. shinjiro is still alive if you complete his social link in p3p, but ends up in a coma for the rest of the game (until this moment of course)
No. While the max Moon social link does prevent Shinjiro's death, it puts him in a coma and out of your party. Everybody still acts as if he's dead the following day and the story progresses exactly like normal playthrough.
This is in the ng+? Damn, I thought I messed something up. It really should be in the first playthrough I doubt anyone wants to go thru 70+ hours of grind again just so some pixels can say I love you.
In reality, he really cares. And he's the most gentleman of the bunch. Just because of an enemy changing him to be the best he is. He's literally the most reasonable in the Answer too.
I mean its somewhat debatable to an extent. It all depends on context and a ton of specific things though to simplify it if the Femc fell in love with Ken this can be taken in the manner in which they are both adults which is common to find adults married in age gaps OR she can screw things up and cause controversy such as people saying "good job ken" and "Your only letting her off the hook because she's a woman!". Things like that you know.
Bro I swear, When I first played this years ago when I was a kid, I really though the MC just fell asleep because he was tired from all that happened and he was going to live happily ever after with his friends now. It wasn't until like a few years later when I saw some clips from The Answer that I realized how wrong I was.
I disagree, FES is way better imo. But these extras on Portable are pretty cool tbh. Now imagine if Atlus would've added the funeral scene they were planning at the end of the original P3...that literally would destroy my heart lol.
They were planning a funeral scene? Man, I really wish they kept it in (so, gave a way to see it optionally post game). The game already ends at the perfect place but that does seem like a nice addition to be able to watch somewhere.
Karen Strassman as Aigis Liam O'Brien as Akihiko Grant George as Shinjiro Cindy Robinson as Ken Michelle Ruff as Yukari Wendee Lee as Fuuka Tara Platt as Mitsuru Laura Bailey as Minako Yuri Lowenthal as Makoto
Imma take a thought from my mind,it hurts to let these great characters that you grew to learn and love then you realize that everything has a ending that you will reach... You can try all you want to stop it but it comes and you don't want to say goodbye sometimes... So you cry... Cry until they're gone and out of your reach then New Game Plus
@@mn9137 oh, thats true, I forgot, still, it could be nice to get Ken out of the formula, I mean, as Makoto you can date Girls outside SeeS, to be able to date one of the bois who didnt got the same arcana as the Sees members was a good idea, like the guy of the art club for goodness sake
@@CarlosSilva-bh4bi Makoto also ONLY spend time with SEES girls in the Lover Endings. Being able to date more than just SEES members wouldn't change anything. The options still would be Akihiko, Ken and Shinjiro.
Had to look this up as I refuse to do a third playthrough of the first character i picked (MaleMC) just for slightly different dialogue at the end lol I don’t get why this is a NG+ only thing, it’s so minimal 💀
I agree! Also question. Out of curiosity. The way she acted in The Answer, I kind of agree how she would act even if it risk Minato's sacrifice going in vain. But what's your thoughts on it guy?
@@ulrickguiliman4810 I'm sorry for replying kind of late, but I needed to play and finish "The Answer" beforehand to have the full context. Despite the fact that what she intended to do was too risky, as someone who went through a personal loss, I sympathize with her. And to me, Akihiko was as much to blame as her for starting the "Civil War" (also Aigis and Metis, but to a lesser extent).
I'm glad I heard about this ng+ ending I'm currently doing femc route ng+ and I never like doing harem route so I chose Ryoji as my lover and my second choice is Aigis so I wouldn't have seen this either way lol
Mitsuru Kirijo has the best ending in this game and she is best Waifu. This beautiful redhead with a nice figure had me at hello. The fact that she is a swordfighter is a huge plus. I love the way she quotes Shakespeare in this scene. Best girl in P3
To get the a Lover ending you need to: 1)Romance said character (automatic/forced for the Male MC and optional for the Female MC). 2)Be on New Game+ Ranks with dialogues to get the Romance route - Akihiko Romance route: Rank 4, Rank 7 and Rank 9. Ken Romance route: Rank 7 and Rank 8 Shinjiro Romance route: After Rank 10
My headcanon in both time-lines: MC: Makoto x Yukari Akihiko x Mitsuru Junpei x Chidori Fuuka x Natsuki FEMC: Akihiko x Kotone Yukari x Mitsuru Junpei x Chidori Shinjiro x Fuuka
Wait just a frickin' second... Shinji is alive when playing with the female mc? :( And if he's alive, how did Ken and Akihiko got kala-nemi and Caesar respectively?
The Shinjiro one makes everyone feel sad, including me; all because Revolver Messiah spoilers. Lastly, modders were able to edit out the romantic relationship with Ken. We all know it ain't gonna age well.

If you’re really not getting these things it may be because you’re playing on Merciless, I hear that the flag to get these options is not carried over if you pick Merciless, since nothing is carried over, I moved down to Hard from Merciless just because I wanted to make sure I got these extra options should I so choose to play through it again.
If only Yukari had been the cannon ending for Makoto, things could have turned out slightly better for her in The Answer (don’t get me wrong- The Answer is what made me love Yukari the most in P3 for how realistic and flawed she is, but maybe she could have been less abrasive with Aigis if Yukari had been the one to be with Makoto in his final moments).
Well she would only see him die and said to protect him but he died so now she would feel more guilty for being those his last words
@@ThiccFurryBoi34 remember- Yukari’s jealousy of Aigis being the one with Makoto in his final moments was a major driving force for why she was such a bitch to Aigis in The Answer.
There is no cannon ending. Please stop
@@zackrodriguez2406 wrong. Aigis is the canon ending.
Ahhhhh 😩 I both love and hate this ending of P3 😭 everything we work for to end like this it’s frustrating . In the eyelids scene I keeping saying “don’t close your eyes don’t close your eyes “. When I played Persona 4 arena I hoped that we could get an Ultimate persona game where the characters from Persona 3 to 5 come together to save the whole world and the possible chance to save P3 main character , the storyline could work
Nobody cares but I did not know this was a thing and when replaying p3p for like the fifth time I got the akihiko lovers ending and cried
I’m gonna miss these voice actors 😭😭
Don't care what anybody else says really, Yukaris scene here and The Answer as a whole just shows that shes the canon love interest imo. She also gets WAY more shit than she deserves cause if anything shes the most human and relatable party member. In The Answer everybody apparently went through the grieving process in record time while she was still acting the way someone who just lost a close friend/lover very recently
When Atlus was making Persona 3, Yukari was originally gonna be the MC's canon love interest but they scrapped it when they decided to go with Social Links instead.
@@player2-lightwater914 where’s that ever stated?
@@Binks7077 I think it's in the official artbook or something.
There isn’t a cannon ending. You are the main character so you decide your ending but yes Yukari has the most emotion. Ultimately you decide though
@@Binks7077idk what he is talking about. There is no cannon ending or romance. You get to decide the ending of the game since you are the main character. Ultimately you decide and that’s a beautiful thing
This game is something I will not forget it has a place in my heart thank you if this game gets remade I'll get it day one
Yeah.. even if it is thousand of dollars 😭😭😢
Guess what.
"Man, those guys sure know how to-*USAA*-ruin a moment."
Femc really gives me some "why don't you take a seat over there" vibes
this all truly depends on a lot of specific details and context in order to decide right from wrong. If you wish to do something like that that would only be acceptable under certain criteria but in the end it is too hard to try to find a way around it when there are so many options one can take when focusing on getting to a goal. Things can change up a bit as you take different options but in the end whatever you do try not to get canceled on twitter.
@@alexanderavila8488 What
@@sinsofthefather epic gamer moment
I've only seen P3 FES. is the story different from P3 Portable since Shinjiro is alive?
yes, but not by a lot. shinjiro is still alive if you complete his social link in p3p, but ends up in a coma for the rest of the game (until this moment of course)
No. While the max Moon social link does prevent Shinjiro's death, it puts him in a coma and out of your party. Everybody still acts as if he's dead the following day and the story progresses exactly like normal playthrough.
He dies for me everytime, idk how to save him
yagadeba max his social link
@@FuckUA-camHandles_ I've maxed all three guys and none appeared
Unpopular opinion, but: stuff like this should’ve been included in one playthrough and not in NG+
This is in the ng+? Damn, I thought I messed something up. It really should be in the first playthrough I doubt anyone wants to go thru 70+ hours of grind again just so some pixels can say I love you.
i'm still depress about this ending! It's been years and i still can't get over it!😭😭😭😭😭💔💔💔
😢
Yukairi is one my favorite's in portable
The promises of protecting them and being by their side must have been terrible after they realized their lover is dead in their arms.
And then there's Ken. Who seems to realise Femc is dying while talking to her.
I didnt know all of these until now and man they're emotional but,,,,Aigis and FeMC,,,, ueueueueue *sound of crying*
You can’t date Junpei...?
*WHY*
Chidori.
Oh. Of course. I totally forgot about that!
it also shows he respects you more of a friend than a cute girl wich is anice angle.
Du_Ishikawa yet he's always portrayed as somewhat of a pervert...
In reality, he really cares. And he's the most gentleman of the bunch. Just because of an enemy changing him to be the best he is. He's literally the most reasonable in the Answer too.
Damn I came here because i miss this game ending. I cry once again.🙂
Maya:nuuuuu
Ken's "romance"
Me: I'M GOIN TA JAIL
More like hell
I mean its somewhat debatable to an extent. It all depends on context and a ton of specific things though to simplify it if the Femc fell in love with Ken this can be taken in the manner in which they are both adults which is common to find adults married in age gaps OR she can screw things up and cause controversy such as people saying "good job ken" and "Your only letting her off the hook because she's a woman!". Things like that you know.
Fuuka: You're so warm...
MC's body was on it's limit since he became the seal..
Wait what shinji is alive!? How!?
If you play on the femc route you can romance shinji.If you do,shinji will be in a coma instead of dying
@@adli1224 oh owo noice! Always a way to have shinji and chidory live
I thought the whole time that the Female route was the same only with different dialogue , it is a little bit more happy (but non canon...).
Kevin Sameshima IT'S CANON NOW BOIIII(persona Q2)
Anime Songs ehh not really. she doesn't exist in the canon we follow, which is the only one that matters.
Bro I swear, When I first played this years ago when I was a kid, I really though the MC just fell asleep because he was tired from all that happened and he was going to live happily ever after with his friends now. It wasn't until like a few years later when I saw some clips from The Answer that I realized how wrong I was.
User photo checks out.
Minako-Sorry ahki...but I'm the third heart break you must have.
God thinking that all game made me super cry. like god its sad!
After ken close his eyes he heard*
*Ara ara ken-kun*
P3P is the definitive version of Persona 3 for this reason.
But seeing Yukari so sad makes me cry
I disagree, FES is way better imo.
But these extras on Portable are pretty cool tbh.
Now imagine if Atlus would've added the funeral scene they were planning at the end of the original P3...that literally would destroy my heart lol.
They were planning a funeral scene? Man, I really wish they kept it in (so, gave a way to see it optionally post game). The game already ends at the perfect place but that does seem like a nice addition to be able to watch somewhere.
Door-kun's sister, femdoor.
Karen Strassman as Aigis
Liam O'Brien as Akihiko
Grant George as Shinjiro
Cindy Robinson as Ken
Michelle Ruff as Yukari
Wendee Lee as Fuuka
Tara Platt as Mitsuru
Laura Bailey as Minako
Yuri Lowenthal as Makoto
Wendee Lee doesn't voice Fuuka is this game. Cindy Robinson also doesn't voice Ken in the game.
I haven’t even been able to play this god damn game but fucking Akihiko made me go ARGHH
*screams in fangirling*
FR
Why from persona 3 until persona 5 when i watch the ending im always cry :(
Imma take a thought from my mind,it hurts to let these great characters that you grew to learn and love then you realize that everything has a ending that you will reach... You can try all you want to stop it but it comes and you don't want to say goodbye sometimes... So you cry... Cry until they're gone and out of your reach then New Game Plus
I ONLY PLAYED NG+ CUZ I THOUGHT I CAN GET AN ENDING WITH RYOJI IM FUCKING CRYING
I wonder if they'd consider these for reload.
Very likely, though hopefully next time they won't be reserved for new game plus.
I’m sorry Akihiko...
Lowkey wish we got an Akinari ending too. Seeing a ghost right before you become one? Good shit.
The fact that Jumpei is not selectable and Ken is a candidate Burns me inside
*DUCK YOU ATLUS!!!*
Another Chidori's existence denier.
@@mn9137 oh, thats true, I forgot, still, it could be nice to get Ken out of the formula, I mean, as Makoto you can date Girls outside SeeS, to be able to date one of the bois who didnt got the same arcana as the Sees members was a good idea, like the guy of the art club for goodness sake
@@CarlosSilva-bh4bi Makoto also ONLY spend time with SEES girls in the Lover Endings. Being able to date more than just SEES members wouldn't change anything. The options still would be Akihiko, Ken and Shinjiro.
@@mn9137 I guess, still, I prefered the idea of Ken being more of a Little bro relationship rather than "She is mine"
@@CarlosSilva-bh4bi And Atlus preferred him as a love interest and wrote him the best Romance Route in the game.
Good on them.
Where is my gay ending for male MC?
I believe it was a planned option but it was scrapped
@@myfellowsonicfans7131 ?
Only if Tatsuya motorcycle Boi was the protagonist
@@echodecrypt9229 ignore the hypocrite
Cringe
Had to look this up as I refuse to do a third playthrough of the first character i picked (MaleMC) just for slightly different dialogue at the end lol
I don’t get why this is a NG+ only thing, it’s so minimal 💀
"don't worry, I'll always protect you"
so that was a fucking lie
Konomaru is the best love interest lol
6:18 *Best Girl*
I agree
I agree!
Also question. Out of curiosity. The way she acted in The Answer, I kind of agree how she would act even if it risk Minato's sacrifice going in vain. But what's your thoughts on it guy?
@@ulrickguiliman4810 I'm sorry for replying kind of late, but I needed to play and finish "The Answer" beforehand to have the full context.
Despite the fact that what she intended to do was too risky, as someone who went through a personal loss, I sympathize with her.
And to me, Akihiko was as much to blame as her for starting the "Civil War" (also Aigis and Metis, but to a lesser extent).
Shinjiro: The girl in my dreams it-
femc: WERENT YOU FUCKING SHOT????
Nah, I’d Pocket Watch
Ken sounds weird XD but hes adorable
I'm glad I heard about this ng+ ending I'm currently doing femc route ng+ and I never like doing harem route so I chose Ryoji as my lover and my second choice is Aigis so I wouldn't have seen this either way lol
Eventhough i love mitsuru... I really prefer to be with Aigis in the end.... Idk why. The feels man.
I thought I had made Akihiko my boyfriend but apparently I didn't. That's fine though, I realized in the end femc is good enough for herself.
Bruh same things happen to me 💀
you definitely should!!! some conversations in the dorm and the special events (after you maxed the s.link and also christmas eve) are so damn cute
yukari makes more sense now in the answer
Her scene isn't Canonical.
this is so HD unlike my persona 3 in my PPSSPP
Mitsuru Kirijo has the best ending in this game and she is best Waifu. This beautiful redhead with a nice figure had me at hello. The fact that she is a swordfighter is a huge plus. I love the way she quotes Shakespeare in this scene. Best girl in P3
Agreed. I found the way she spoke during her rooftop ending to be absolutely heartbreaking. Only Yukari and Akihiko come close for me.
PleaseSend Serotonin: You’re not wrong there
Totally.
She has such a moving ending with Minato/Makoto. I'd have loved to see all of these endings in P3FES.
Jonathan Hernandez: They’re all awesome, you’re not wrong there
Sexy Strong Man: True my friend
You know what's weird. I played p3 portable and I never got this part
It's second playthrough moment
To get the a Lover ending you need to:
1)Romance said character (automatic/forced for the Male MC and optional for the Female MC).
2)Be on New Game+
Ranks with dialogues to get the Romance route -
Akihiko Romance route: Rank 4, Rank 7 and Rank 9.
Ken Romance route: Rank 7 and Rank 8
Shinjiro Romance route: After Rank 10
My headcanon in both time-lines:
MC:
Makoto x Yukari
Akihiko x Mitsuru
Junpei x Chidori
Fuuka x Natsuki
FEMC:
Akihiko x Kotone
Yukari x Mitsuru
Junpei x Chidori
Shinjiro x Fuuka
YESS AKIHAM AND SHINJIFUUKA IS CUTE TOO WHY ALMOST NO ONE CONSIDERS THIS
Fuuka: “your so warm”
Yea he won’t be in a second
Fuuka: Oh thank goodness I remembered..But when I did, I got scared... That you wouldn't be here anymore...
Me on my phone: Poor girl.
Wait just a frickin' second... Shinji is alive when playing with the female mc? :(
And if he's alive, how did Ken and Akihiko got kala-nemi and Caesar respectively?
He's in a coma until this scene
Just like the original plot both of them were moved after the incident
The thought of Minato dying in someone’s arms doesn’t bother me as much as Minako dying in someone’s arms for some reason
Why? They're literally the same exept he's a dude.
Mildly Displeased Staravia its a emo boy against energetic girl to me that is enough
I'M A GIRL, STOP CRYING FOR YUKARI'S ENDING GODDAMNIT
The Shinjiro one makes everyone feel sad, including me; all because Revolver Messiah spoilers.
Lastly, modders were able to edit out the romantic relationship with Ken. We all know it ain't gonna age well.
Editing out something you can avoid. Time well spent.
I promised myself I woun't cry
I’m not crying, you’re crying!
