Each Persona game directed by Hashino is themed differently, and roughly based on a specific Major Arcana tarot card. The Major Arcana are pretty important to the franchise as a whole, so this was both a decision made to solidify that connection, and a decision that allows each entry to have its own unique flavor. Persona 4 is specifically based on the Temperance arcana, which represents balance and patience. Its all about not making decisions too rashly, and trying to determine the correct path to meet your goals. This is reflected in the main plot, which is a murder mystery where every detail must be scrutinized to determine the truth, as well as a number of the smaller interactions you have with other characters. Quite often the characters around you will be unsatisfied with some portion of their life, propose some drastic change, then come to realize that they find a lot of happiness in their current situation, and set about finding a way to improve the specific thing that leaves them unsatisfied. While a bit indirect, I feel like they attempted to tackle the theme through the music in a similar way to the character interactions. The Japanese pop-punk is full of energy, and gets you ready for action, while the lyrics emphasize the need to slow down and determine the true nature of things ("Yeah, naked truth lies, only if you realize Appearing in nobody's lives, 'til they sterilize Stop the guerilla warfare to keep it fair Bro, change your rage to a smarter greater cause You know the stake is high, stardom is near Those you sympathized with died, killers pass you by"). Its that kind of juxtaposition that I think the soundtrack is going for. Persona 5, which is the other one you've listened to, is all about the Star arcana. Its all about hope, inner strength, and growth. For some needed context, in the Major Arcana The Star follows The Tower, which represents ruin, or a great setback. So in the context of the Major Arcana, The Star is all about coming from a place of hopelessness, and making things better. As a result, Persona 5 is all about societal change. The protagonists see the broken system hurting those around them, and they do what they can to improve it. This involves them operating outside the broken system, which aligns them closely with the Japanese archetype of the gentlemanly phantom thief. The reason the music in Persona 5 is so jazz focused is because it aligns nicely with that aesthetic. It conveys a sense of class, while retaining the edge of rebellion. The only one you haven't listened to yet is Persona 3, which is about the Death arcana. Unlike what you're probably expecting, Death isn't about death itself, although Persona 3 does deal with that as well. Death is all about transformation, endings, moving on, and cycles. I cant really describe much else without spoiling the plot of Persona 3, but suffice to say a key theme is optimism vs pessimism. As a result, you get a mix of lighter and heavier sounds in Persona 3's soundtrack. This is probably best represented in Battle for Everyones' Souls, where its mostly comprised of heavier sounds, intercut with an excerpt of the more hopeful Aria for the Soul as the chorus.
You're quite spot on on your assumption of P3's theme and cycles, as the game emphases the concept of loss and death but accept change and moving on. One social link is particularly based on that and a lot of the plot points revolve around this as well, especially The Answer's, the game sequel added in P3FES
Persona 3 is entirely about death and how people react to death, how they are changed by it, how they come to terms with it, etcetera. EVERYTHING in the game revolves around this, from the music, to the art, to the character stories. All of it. It's an absolute masterpiece of a work, and I hope he listens to some of it, as it has a gorgeous soundtrack.
As someone who's just a casual Persona enjoyer, this makes a lot of sense and is the most precise but brief explanation of themes in each game I've seen.
Probably why P3 is still my favorite story and plot wise. Based off cycles and inevitably, the plot and the world dont revolve around you as the main character. Characters grow and change outside of your interaction with them. It honestly feels the most real out of 3,4&5. "Time brings us all equally to the same end...."
This is the P4 battle theme, the 1st time I played this and got in2 the tutorial battle I was like screw the game I need to listen to this absolute banger, P4's my all time favorite game and I never tire of the tracks even though they've been on my playlist for close to a decade now. To touch on what u said P3 = rock/hip-hop, P4 = pop/rock , P5 = acid jazz, P5 Strikers = acid jazz / metal
This song really stands the test of repetition too. As you mentioned, this is the battle theme, so you hear this song a L O T! But it's still a bop every time.
I have watched this multiple times already, but it just dawned to me the HUGE significance of you wearing the sunglasses when the music started. Players of the game might be familiar, but every character wears some form of eyewear in the game. And you without knowing that just did it. So surreal bro. You might be the last truth seeker the Investigation Team needed. Your review was awesome!
Burn my dread from persona 3 is one you likely have gotten a BUNCH of requests for, but let me go with the battle music; as Mass Destruction is a personal favourite.
Oh good, I'm glad it's the version with the intro build up. In the game proper it just starts on the chorus, which is great when you're fighting monsters but it doesn't work as well when you're just listening to it on it's own
You are absolute Right. Every Persona Game has a Main Leitmotif when it comes to the Music. P5 is Heavy Jazzbased, P4 is more Pop while P3 is a good mix of every Genre but with lots of Rap parts in it. Sad that Shoji Meguro the Lead Composer for the Persona and Shin Megami Tensei left Atlus this Year. Hope Atlus hires him as a Freelancer for some Songs because cant immagine a Persona Game without him. This Series has one of the best OST's ive ever heared.
Meguro already confirmed that he will still be working with Atlus, he just decided to go independent as he wants to focus more on game development also
Alright since you've reacted to P4's battle theme now I have to recommend you "Mass Destruction" out of necessity, which is P3's main battle theme. I think it caught a lot of people off guard because P3 has a much more somber mood in general, so hearing that sht for the first time was wild. Also Persona in general just has a bunch of bangers from unexpected places, like honestly some of my favorite songs from Persona are songs that play when you're just casually strolling around town lol.
Only good memories of sitting on the floor, playing this on the PS2 in summer holidays. Still one of my all time fave games. Glad someone requested this banger!
Man, the feeling when this starts playing at the beginning of combat is just amazing. I remember just enjoying how the characters moved to the beat. No matter how many hundreds of hours I've heard this in P4 I never get tired of it.
The music for the Persona and SMT series are on another level. Hope to hear “Rivers in the Desert” from P5 and “Normal battle~Town~” from SMT Nocturne on the channel one day.
I’m so glad you listened to the first battle version which starts with the intro and first verse. The normal version literally starts with the chorus since it’s supposed to get you pumped for the battle by starting in media res. This version is definitely better for listening without the context of a battle
I recommend "Light the Fire up in the Night" from Persona Q. Both versions, the (P4 Side) and the (P3 Side), are great, and doing them back-to-back might make for an interesting reaction!
I think one of the biggest things to draw me to the Persona series was the music. While I love the modern day settings and social aspects of the games, I was so blown away by the genres each game taps into with liberal use of lyrics. I was never super into JRPGs, so hearing clear lyrical tracks in pop, acid jazz, and even rap caught me off guard for just the normal battle themes. I was so used to every RPG battle theme being some orchestral track, so upbeat lyrical jams was such a surprise for me. Love the series and hope to see you continue diving into what it has.
As you've likely read, yes, every Persona title does have a central theme and style which its music follows. My personal favorite is P3, its very somber but uplifting. Listen to Mass Destruction if you can. Its got several version and all of them are fantastic!
Love persona music! Beneath the mask and heartbeat, heartbreak are some of my favorites. Also I would recommend bayonetta music, especially moon river or fly me to the moon.
Persona is a weird mix of gameplay in a good way. One half is your classic JRPG dungeon crawler but the other half is building up your social links with certain people you meet around town. I think the games before P4 is a tad different in the presentation but i have not played them (Please port 1, 2, 3, and 5 to PC, Atlus. P4 sold so well on Steam)
Persona 3 and Persona 4 are share a lot of DNA, with 4 mainly just adding quality of life features to what 3 introduced. The major differences are in story and sound.
The great thing is that Person 4 Golden (basically an extended edition) was sitting on the PS Vita for YEARS, and everyone was begging Atlus to port it (basically anywhere), but they were like, "Nah, we don't like money."
@@Toksyuryel That isn't true, but it's a very common misconception. Jokes about "they hate money" aside, they've traditionally released mainline games on PS because that's where they saw the market for Persona, and Atlus REALLY don't like making multiple SKUs for their products. It takes a lot more time and testing than most think even to side-port to a same generation console (and PC is the worst because it lacks any kind of unified hardware specs). Atlus has actually been a subsidiary of Sega Sammy since 2013 (meaning they just missed P4/P4G), although Sega has left them almost entirely independent. The only reason P4G got ported at all was that Sega, not Atlus, wanted to test the viability of multiple SKUs on Persona titles since P5 and P5R proved so successful (understatement). And apparently they thought it was a better idea to try it out on something that everyone and their mother hadn't already bought.
I'm surprised you haven't done "Otherworld" from FFX yet, I think it's right up your alley. There's a long-running myth that Otherworld was performed by Rammstein. I remember the song being labelled "Rammstein - Otherworld" on LimeWire and similar software back in the day, and you'll still see arguments about it in the comments on UA-cam. It's not Rammstein, but it's a banger nonetheless. I hope you can check it out!
They didnt request the full version? For context, Persona 4 is known as the "happy" Persona game, with its main themes being of self-discovery and acceptance.
@@DogManProductions not really. P5 is by far the most Dark Entry because of its Grounded Story with a big Focus on the Main Society. You have Rape,Sexual Harrasment and Suicide even in the First Dungeon ^^. The fifth Dungeon Story is full of Context we see every Day in the TV i.e Amazon and his Working Conditions.
@@DantoriusD Yeah the first villain is as dark as it gets imo. Sure, the rest of the themes are relevant but in terms of actually going deep into dark themes i strongly disagree that it ever does. Also, i only say P4 is darker because there's actually a serial killer on the loose. Cause overall its also not super dark otherwise.
What's crazy to me is that Persona has such drastically different styles and yet can give off exactly the same vibes with each of them. So much care and love was put into the music of this series and it really showes.
I dont often request songs but I'd love to see you react to "Burn My Dread" from persona 3, or "Battle B2" from smt4. Both of those tunes are bangers imo. Awesome reviews so far man!
While I will say that it is an amazing song. A lot of it comes from the emotional attachment to the characters and the impact of the ending of the game which makes it so powerful. Without that context the song is diminished a bunch.
And ill face out, ill hold out. Ill reach out to the truth~ oh man this song has been living rent free in my head for years with the 90s theme they got going on.
If you're still reading these Jesse, I highly recommend these P4 tracks! -Specialist (Reincarnation version) -The Fog (Atlus Konishi Remix preferred, better mix) -Ying Yang -Break out of... -Dance!
"Speed queen" from Soul Nomad and the world Eaters is a weird but ultimately catchy theme from a 15? Years old turn based strategy game. Would love if it someday could be on your list.
Persona 3, 4 and 5 all have very different music styles. Generally within a game the style is relatively consistent, but when you compare the soundtracks of different games they are wildly different. For reference, this is battle music. Specifically its generic battle music that plays during random fight encounters, as opposed to boss music. Ok so the version you listed to was actually a cut down version of the song. It was missing the additional verses and the tone shifts. It's largely accurate to the game primarily because combat doesn't last long enough to get to those verses, but its definitely not the full song.
I'm not a JRPG (turn based) fan so i only played Persona 4 Last year on My Vita and OMFG... I was crying like a baby (i'm 41) with the ending (i got the Bad one on My first play) now it's in My top 10 games of all times.
If you want to try a P3 song to round out the "modern" Personas, "Deep Breath Deep Breath" is both very different from the music from the other two games and a fair idea of what that game sounds like at its best.
You should react to at least one persona 3 song too now. XD Probably the saddest persona of all of them. I recommend "Mass destruction" or "Burn my dread".
Oh well now I'm laughing at myself. I was avoiding watching this because I'm in the middle of playing P4G and didn't want to risk music spoiling myself and then this turns out to just be... combat music that I've heard many times now 😂. I didn't know the title! It's a fun song for combat. It's turn-based but the characters' animations are bouncy. Just fun and fits well.
P5s music is Jazz and P4s is pop Im leaving P3 as a surprise till you see a song. So for fun ill recommend the classic from Persona 3: Mass Destruction.
if i may wish for a song: check out Wayward daughter from ff14, link: ua-cam.com/video/wyJ4ksWBUH4/v-deo.html It is my favorite song out of all of them (wich the game has a ton of bangers), is not something easy to say.
Maaan, how could you make so many reactions (60) and forget about Prince Of Persia The Warrior Within game? Almost any ost you reacted to is a piece of useless nonsense in comparison with Stuart Chatwood's masterpiece. :)
Something that's quickly becoming a favourite staple of mine for this channel is that 'confused' face you do when you hear something crazy unique.
People have been calling out my mannerisms I never noticed lol
@@JessesAuditorium im a pretty big fan of that 'punched in the chest' look from bfg division lol

Fun part about persona is each game focuses on a different genre of music.
So, every persona game has its own music genre going for it. 3 has a pop/rap thing going, 4 is more hippie rock, and 5 is Jazzy.
I'm not a JRPG (turn based) fan so i only played Persona 4 Last year on My Vita and OMFG... I was crying like a baby (i'm 41) with the ending (i got the Bad one on My first play) now it's in My top 10 games of all times.

Nice, Keep the content up
Persona Battle themes are so good. My favorite personally is from 1. "A lone prayer"
"singing ours dranker than brand new masters"
Please react to Normal battle - nocturne . It has really a unique and cool vocal style
You should react to at least one persona 3 song too now. XD Probably the saddest persona of all of them. I recommend "Mass destruction" or "Burn my dread".
Is Mass Destruction(s) gonna get requested next?
Now that Persona can is open, can't wait for "Mass Destruction"
you deff gotta listen to the smash remix of this,
actually you gotta listen to the smash remixes of a LOT of songs
With all of these persona music reactions, I really hope you react to Battle B2 from Shin Megami Tensei IV, the older brother of Persona.
Oh well now I'm laughing at myself. I was avoiding watching this because I'm in the middle of playing P4G and didn't want to risk music spoiling myself and then this turns out to just be... combat music that I've heard many times now 😂. I didn't know the title! It's a fun song for combat. It's turn-based but the characters' animations are bouncy. Just fun and fits well.
Laser Beam from Persona Q is a good one.
The persona series overall has amazing music
A question from a non native English speaker: when did the expression "say no more" become "say less"?
Love the music in the persona series but Yo have you listened to any of the music from dead rising? just curious
not yet!
@@JessesAuditorium If you ever decide to listen to any dead rising music i'd recommend sergent dwight boykin's theme
The intro always reminded me of Tornado of souls.
I want a ska version so much
And then there was reach out to the truth -p4 arena version-, even better
"Say less" lol
May I recommend break out of
From persona 4 arena ultimax
Did you react to rivers in a desert by chance
yep, on christmas
Gotta do Drakengard 3 Final song
Persona 3 has some really good music too. More Japanese hip hop
One of 2 battle themes I prefer the other one called time to make history
P5s music is Jazz and P4s is pop Im leaving P3 as a surprise till you see a song. So for fun ill recommend the classic from Persona 3: Mass Destruction.
Apparently P5's genre is called 'Acid Jazz', i think P4 is just rock. P3 definitely has some hip hop in it.
I recommend Persona 5 - Rivers in the Desert
it's coming!
This makes me want him to see face myself reincarnation, though I'm not sure if that would fit the rules of the songs he picks
It was used basically unaltered in Golden, so it's fair game.

It is my favorite song out of all of them (wich the game has a ton of bangers), is not something easy to say.

React to Silent Hill 2 OST
React to Silent Hill 1 Alien Ending credits music.
I'd loooove to see a reaction to Silent Hill 2 or 3 OST
Could you please react to b2 from smt 4 it's so fucking good its left with my wife
I gotta say i really dont particularly like this one. Its more of an anime pop song lacking something to make it appealing
I prefer the person 4 opening
Maaan, how could you make so many reactions (60) and forget about Prince Of Persia The Warrior Within game? Almost any ost you reacted to is a piece of useless nonsense in comparison with Stuart Chatwood's masterpiece. :)
Yikes
