***** It definitely took a harsh turn, I mean I was expecting something to happen at the end of the labyrinth, but wasn't expecting it to have so much feels D:
***** i always wondered if they had the balls to take the dark side to it full conclusion, of course i was asking this of atlus but hey we all make them
I actually expected this to happen because the clues are quite obvious (the treasures found in the dungeons look like something that rei will have). Plus her name is Rei which means Zero (didn't expect Zen to be chronos. I thought zen is something like 'calm' in buddhist concept). I immediately thought, Rei is probably dead already and this is her world (because this theme previously used in persona 1). but damn, that scene is so depressing :(.
eriol i took a completely different turn than she was dead, the whole 'Zero' thing and differing mementos made me think she was a failed wild-card. and zen was her persona trying to help her reconcile with herself to continue.
I think it's pretty awesome that Rei doesn't go "NAP TIME' like everyone else did when you fought their shadows. And if you get that joke, you get a web-cookie.
Chie with her awakening persona Furious fists Shura tensei Dragoon's cry Power charge Death's Scythe And heat riser buff + debilitate + rakunda + marakunda on the enemy and you Will be scared for life
I have to say Zen role is a very cruel role too have when you have emotion. I mean put yourself in his place, can you imagine day after day after day you come across souls who tells stories like Rei's or worse. I myself wouldn't be able to handle that Q.Q
Me: I love Rei! She’s so cheerful and innocent! She’s my favorite character and she makes me smile. Rei: *This scene and her crying* Me: Wait, that’s illegal.
Man this part of the game hit me right in the heart. When they showed the flash backs all I could think of was how the labyrinths and guardians were connected to her. Great job with the battle!
Sometimes it's better to not know than to know... Sometimes it's nice to live in ignorance. Makes life so much easier. But, that's not the way it should be. If we live in ignorance, we can't go on to the next stage of our lives, even if the next stage is beyond our life. What Zen, or rather, Chronos did. Was stupid. He made her practically die twice. But on the other hand, taking a soul by force, even as a being of death, wouldn't have been a peaceful death either. And in this way, she at least was able to have a bunch of friends before she finally was put to rest. But was the benefit worth the cost?
You have point but I think Zen aka Chronos should have just done his job and took her to her final destination. If he’d had done that all this needless chaos would have been unnecessary, but then we would have experienced a great game. 😂 Still we all see the repercussions of how the cycle of life and death if off balance can bring catastrophic consequences even to Zen since he ended up splitting in half.
I love the dub in this game so much especially in this part. You can hear the bitterness of Rei's words and that just hits my heart :') I will always love you Rei
Damn Myriad Arrows wrecked that boss. Poor Rei though. Sorta predicted that plot-twist about her. There's also a crazy theory about her involving Ultimax but its probably fanon bunk. Good luck on the final battle!
Monique Kalu Yeah, if I recall correctly, that girl was actually more optimistic, and was happy she was at least giving something to the world before her death. Also would she really have been all the way out in Inaba instead of Port Island which is closer to the island where the robots were being based off of her?
I bet the Merciful Clergyman was someone who went to her at her deathbed to hear her last words/do some sort of religious afterlife thing. Or it could have been her dreaming of marriage for herself during that time.
@@josephfoy9218 Ashly Burch did not work voicing Rise in P4 Dancing unfortunately. She wasn't awful but the change between the other characters that got new voice actors Teddie, Kanji, and Naoto she just sounds too different. And Erin Fitzgeralds voice just fits Chies character so much better.
Holy SHIT those Myriad Arrows. I was playing earlier and saw I could fuse a Persona with them... But then saw they were low accuracy and got turned off. But Agility Binding completely solves that! I am going to abuse the shit out of that now.
I know this game is kinda old by now but still. That's a part which I took a big interest and one of the most heartbreaking reaveal in video game (from my book, that is...)
Man, my favorite track in the game so far. I used Debilitate along with Tarunda and Sukunda on this guy, turned him into an absolute chump. Somehow they show up as stacking in the status screen. Game got real dark real fast, although honestly, the Doctor battle in the previous labyrinth was screaming this.
Aigiss fucking rekt the boss. Shura Tensei ftw. Hey, you're at this part! Almost finished! This scene was absolutely tragic. Up until this point in the game Rei's voice had slightly annoyed me, but her performance as Niko blew me away and then her overly cheery voice made sense. Like wow.
Well, this was one big feels bomb. Makes you cringe as you get further into the sad background story. Hoping it gets a tiny bit more cheery towards the end and not going into a deeper tragic feels bomb
Honestly when I realised all 4 bosses were Based on Rei i bloody SCREAMED(In my sleeve of course),The Game Wasnt just the basic persona series with Objects belonging to Rei,the bosses were based on her too.....I JUST...I JUST....AAAAH!!!!THIS GAME IS THE GAME WHICH GAVE ME THE MOST FEELS AS EVER,FREAKING ATLUS!!!!AAAAAAA!!!!!I JUST WANNA GIVE REI/NIKO A HUG RIGHT NOW
Doesn't the Queen of heart (Fairy tale part) mean her 'prince ' mentioned by her mom? The clergyman was the part where she prayed to god and not a single prayer was granted. The Doc and nurses are from her time in the hospital. And 'best friend. Was that she could not accet her own death
Want me to make it worse??? Judging by the fact that Rei's hair was shaved off, she most likely had cancer. The flesh blobs that were growing off of Best Friend were most likely tumors. Enjoy that little bit of knowledge.
I just failed to destroy this boss since it endured the final blow and recovered HP. I'm pretty pissed, I must admit. Atlus managed to troll me super hard yet again. :D
Binding Hands is a passable passive on Sub-Personas that raises the chance of inflicting Binds. The Luck stat also slightly affects that, along with chance of critting or landing ailments.
You have to be level 55 in order to defeat this Shadow. Hence explains why P3 and P4 main characters has Orpheus and Izanagi evolved into Messiah and Izanagi-no-Okami by battling Margaret in You in Wonderland, once you completed all quests that were given.
Shadow Rei is a projection of her subconscious mind rejecting her death. Since Rei lost all of her memories, her Shadow is supposed to be afraid to die, like she actually was when she was alive. That's why her Shadow regains half its HP when it is reduced to 0. It really doesn't want to die.
Game Guy95 If I had to guess what arcana it symbolized (as all shadows do), it'd say reversed Star. The Star usually means inspiration and hope, but reversed it means an event will cause great depression and despair. Rei had no hope, no light, nothing when she died, hence the arena's darkness.
I think it represents her sickness, for one big reason. Rei had to cut her hair off, right? That happens with a lot of cancer patients. The flesh blobs around the rabbit thing are most likely tumors.
Komnilord 2000 I had time to check the meaning again and you're right! It's the kind of love between friends, though Aristotele said it included other examples.
Komnilord 2000 I have an ancient greek dictionary back from high school and I couldn't quite get how to find the meaning of Zen. Thanks for telling me!
Rei's voice actress put so much emotion into this...and it's beautiful.
That's Ashly Burch for you.
I always tear up when rei gets upset shes dead
I didn't expect this game to rip my heart out and crush it into dust.
Atlus just loves drinking the tears of its fans.

whatever man, rei wasnt even that hot.
(i love the p4 comic dub.]
*bzzzzt* ow
ITS SYMBOLIC! Cawww!
Thanks😁🌰 (yes I know it's not a cookie but that's the closest thing I could find lol 😂)
I know the atmosphere of this fight is insanely tense, but...
DID YOU SEE THE MYRIAD ARROWS ON AIGIS? Holy crap, 5000+ damage.
You should see Hassou Tobi. Yoshitsune breaks this game.
Or linking.
I needed like 4 turns total by using Kanji with Quadruple link...
Physical damage is broken in this game
Chie with her awakening persona
Furious fists
Shura tensei
Dragoon's cry
Power charge
Death's Scythe
And heat riser buff + debilitate + rakunda + marakunda on the enemy and you Will be scared for life
Dude the VA for Rei fucking sells sadness so perfectly
All of the voice actors put their souls into the characters.
Ashly Burch nailed it
I have to say Zen role is a very cruel role too have when you have emotion.
I mean put yourself in his place, can you imagine day after day after day you come across souls who tells stories like Rei's or worse.
I myself wouldn't be able to handle that Q.Q
That's probably why this whole thing happened in the first place.
Zen grew feelings.
Pokemonique this games drives to the point that even death is human in some aspect with Zen
Far better than what Ryoji was meant to do in Persona 3
I gotta say, that was some really good voice acting! I'm floored at how much english dub has evolved over the years!
...Hearing Zen's voice at 16:50 actually drove me to tears ;-;
Me: I love Rei! She’s so cheerful and innocent! She’s my favorite character and she makes me smile.
Rei: *This scene and her crying*
Me: Wait, that’s illegal.
That scene gave me even more reason to utterly destroy that thing. DONT TOUCH MY CHILD!
Their feelings hits me harder than my own feelings
@@YuubiTimberwolfunderpants reference?
...damn. You can hear the despair in her voice. The bitterness, and sadness. Shit...that really made me choke up there for a good while...
Woooooooooow, this just made me so emotional. Round of applause for the writers and voice actors/actresses.
Years later, Persona comes on the brains, I watch this scene again, and it *still* megaton punches me in the feels.
In this episode: Long silences!
Don't forget the full body sobbing!
Can't forget about that!
mikeshogunlee And feels..
Do not forget Crippling depression
This isn't your average, everyday sad, THIS right here is just
, "Oh god I think I've reached eternal misery..." Type of sad.
Poor Rei :C
that voice acting for rei is top notch
The word of day is "....."!
Man this part of the game hit me right in the heart. When they showed the flash backs all I could think of was how the labyrinths and guardians were connected to her. Great job with the battle!
The writers always do an AMAZING job with the story of this series. The music really sets the tone to. :D
18:37 this part really gets me for some reason.
Sometimes it's better to not know than to know...
Sometimes it's nice to live in ignorance. Makes life so much easier. But, that's not the way it should be. If we live in ignorance, we can't go on to the next stage of our lives, even if the next stage is beyond our life.

You can tell they made this boss more alive how it walk up the screen if you have your 3d switch on
Walk UP to the screen? I think you mean reach OUT of the screen.
MrSailing101 It's jaws reached out to Yu
Damn Myriad Arrows wrecked that boss.
Poor Rei though. Sorta predicted that plot-twist about her. There's also a crazy theory about her involving Ultimax but its probably fanon bunk.
Good luck on the final battle!
If you mean a connection between her and Labyrs? It's actually possible.
Yeah. Heard about that.
***** She doesn't have the accent though.
Also, that would probably count as "something I've contributed to the world before I died."
Monique Kalu
Yeah, if I recall correctly, that girl was actually more optimistic, and was happy she was at least giving something to the world before her death.
Also would she really have been all the way out in Inaba instead of Port Island which is closer to the island where the robots were being based off of her?
But didn't Labrys' "Mother"'s whole thing take place a decade ago as opposed to then?
I bet the Merciful Clergyman was someone who went to her at her deathbed to hear her last words/do some sort of religious afterlife thing. Or it could have been her dreaming of marriage for herself during that time.
Omega Zero Alpha It's probably about how her own prayers during her stay in the hospital were useless and ended up with her still dying.
Either way it's sad
But what about the queen of hearts? I never could understand the connections there besides maybe that she likes the book?
@@evanmacaroni14 it was meant to represent her mother. The red ring was a gift from her, so queen of hearts is fitting
Kudos to Ashly Burch and Keith Silverstein voicing Zen and Rei!
Those two are phenomenal in general, and especially here
@@josephfoy9218 Ashly Burch did not work voicing Rise in P4 Dancing unfortunately. She wasn't awful but the change between the other characters that got new voice actors Teddie, Kanji, and Naoto she just sounds too different. And Erin Fitzgeralds voice just fits Chies character so much better.
An I the only one who almost started to cry while hearing rei's/niko's backstory? ;-;
What do you mean almost?
I cry because shit is sad
Forget almost, I actually did.
I was to broken to cry I just stopped thinking
Clock Tower's theme though.... wow.
I know right? Footsteps of Time is amazing to listen to.
What a twist it would have been if she did get her persona. The whole other self thing series wise has ever changing rules, but still..
I don't think the dead can get Personas
@@drakofox1362 I dunno.. Robots and dogs get personas. And recently an app AI can get a persona. What measure is "alive"?
@@RangerRobin0404 ........good point
AzureSoul damn you seemed like you were ready for someone to say that
@@erockgoblue6295 Nah. Just really love the series. A good story is good when it makes you think and ask questions. :)
This game is surprisingly accurate. This is what all my Best Friends look like.
I bursted out laughing
Holy SHIT those Myriad Arrows. I was playing earlier and saw I could fuse a Persona with them... But then saw they were low accuracy and got turned off. But Agility Binding completely solves that! I am going to abuse the shit out of that now.
Even Death has Feels.
Wow.
Didn’t expect this game to be drinking people’s tears from the sadness.
The soundtrack to this game is amazing.
37:26 lets rest up and restore our feels
Damnit Atlus, I was playing this on the bus and ended up crying and everyone was wondering wtf was wrong with me.... T_T
This story tho...
MY.
FUCKING.
HEART.
IS.
NO.
MORE!!!!!!
oh god. oh god this hurts. this hurts so much. this and the ending were heart wrenching to me.
and to think rei was a ditzy blonde, with no personality....i was wrong.
Welp, there goes manly tears.
The feels reached maximum levels here ;-;
LIE DOWN
TRY NOT TO CRY
CRY A LOT
The Bunny just enduring and refusing to die for the sake of keeping Rei alive induces me misery.
this is still just as sad to watch the second time around as it was the first....
Almost got to my stone cold heart gotta give it that much.
one word came to my mind
"Damn"
I know this game is kinda old by now but still. That's a part which I took a big interest and one of the most heartbreaking reaveal in video game (from my book, that is...)
The rabbit reminds me of the robot bunny suit from KND...
Omg! I was wondering why that rabbit looks familiar.
+MrAgumon4 is it too late to jump on the nope train to fuckthisshitville?
safari sonan not at all
good, cause i am OUT OF HERE(jumps on the nope train and speeds off)
What’s knd
Wow . . . this game got heavy with the feels.
Man, my favorite track in the game so far. I used Debilitate along with Tarunda and Sukunda on this guy, turned him into an absolute chump. Somehow they show up as stacking in the status screen. Game got real dark real fast, although honestly, the Doctor battle in the previous labyrinth was screaming this.
Oh god, i´m crying...i want to play that game now on my own, it breaks my heart..... .___.
I like how the game with the happiest title song has the saddest shit in...WHAT THE FUCK ATLAS DON'T PLAY WITH MY EMOTIONS
I would think that "Joy" would be the happiest title for a song, but "Friends" works too.
Wow....leave it to persona to have an awesome, heart wrenching twist with an equally awesome sound track.....
Aigiss fucking rekt the boss. Shura Tensei ftw.
Hey, you're at this part! Almost finished! This scene was absolutely tragic. Up until this point in the game Rei's voice had slightly annoyed me, but her performance as Niko blew me away and then her overly cheery voice made sense. Like wow.
So much humor in this game then bam!
So much heartache!
Ouch! My heart.
19:30 Well that escalated quickly.
See, this just means that Rei is the best character because she can actually fight against her own Shadow.
Well, considering all she does is use healing skills that end up not even being her own, I'd argue that.
The feels... THE FEELS!
D:
Well, this was one big feels bomb. Makes you cringe as you get further into the sad background story. Hoping it gets a tiny bit more cheery towards the end and not going into a deeper tragic feels bomb
That's no ordinary rabbit...
It's a cheating rabbit >:(
"No....No, no, no....YOU GET ON THAT FLOOR RIGHT NOW!!!!"
Mp3 Dalsten That rabbit is fucking insane! Also, I've had fun facing Best Friend myself when I played Q.
IT A DEMON RABBIT, RUUUUUUUNN!!!!!!!
It's a advance bunny
I love this part in the game, so much happens and the story enters the 11 of the intensity.
Honestly when I realised all 4 bosses were Based on Rei i bloody SCREAMED(In my sleeve of course),The Game Wasnt just the basic persona series with Objects belonging to Rei,the bosses were based on her too.....I JUST...I JUST....AAAAH!!!!THIS GAME IS THE GAME WHICH GAVE ME THE MOST FEELS AS EVER,FREAKING ATLUS!!!!AAAAAAA!!!!!I JUST WANNA GIVE REI/NIKO A HUG RIGHT NOW

Bro both Rei and Zen's Va's both put alot of effort into their performances for the end.
You can tell they're sad about what's going to go down.
Holy shit this battle music is awesome
Magic Circle
Miss
*WHAT THE?!*
First off damn that was depressing and second I wish they gave you the option to leave just to see if there is a bad ending to this game
Right in the feels man
Jesus this was hard to swallow... I need this game
Right in the feels 😢
I just failed to destroy this boss since it endured the final blow and recovered HP. I'm pretty pissed, I must admit. Atlus managed to troll me super hard yet again. :D
13:35 Proves that Yukiko is very caring.
THE MUSIC GUYSSSS
IS SOOOO GOOOOD
I know I'm years late to this video, BUT THE FUCKING ENDURE PART STILL GIVES ME CHILLS
How the heck are you landing lethargy circle every turn?
Is there some stat you can buff with accessories that affects it?
Binding Hands is a passable passive on Sub-Personas that raises the chance of inflicting Binds.
The Luck stat also slightly affects that, along with chance of critting or landing ailments.
15:02 Jun, is that you?
Jim Phoenix HAHAHAHHA
This fight took me like 40 turns thanks to low SP.
Also, the game sure got more dramatic huh?
You have to be level 55 in order to defeat this Shadow. Hence explains why P3 and P4 main characters has Orpheus and Izanagi evolved into Messiah and Izanagi-no-Okami by battling Margaret in You in Wonderland, once you completed all quests that were given.
@@AkemiHikari Eh, I defeated it in my low 40s. Generous use of buffs and debuffs + sonic punches are good enough.
18:44 uh Best Friend..how you could?
the point in the game where things start getting heavy
I was not expecting that... damn it.
My parents waking up for school
Me: 16:57
I-I'm not crying *sniff*
"theirs no hame in relying on ones companions"
someone grew up, eh mitzy?
The song is also used in Super Mario Generations against Time Eater.
My god poor Rei I feel so bad for her!!!
Why Aigis took damage when she attacked?
This is just sad :/
Aigis racked up some big numbers as far as damage goes
what's the theme on 18:38 please tell me
I'm a bit confused, like what does Shadow Rei symbolize and why as a giant evil rabbit?
Shadow Rei is a projection of her subconscious mind rejecting her death. Since Rei lost all of her memories, her Shadow is supposed to be afraid to die, like she actually was when she was alive.
That's why her Shadow regains half its HP when it is reduced to 0. It really doesn't want to die.
Game Guy95 If I had to guess what arcana it symbolized (as all shadows do), it'd say reversed Star. The Star usually means inspiration and hope, but reversed it means an event will cause great depression and despair. Rei had no hope, no light, nothing when she died, hence the arena's darkness.
Wow, I feel very bad for Rei then.
I think it represents her sickness, for one big reason. Rei had to cut her hair off, right? That happens with a lot of cancer patients. The flesh blobs around the rabbit thing are most likely tumors.
Damn, that's so damn deep.
Damn Aigis, you scary
What is that AWESOME music playing during the Best Friend boss fight?
NVM, found out. It's called "Friends."
Also, Philei I guess it's the verb "To love" but my greek is a bit rusty...
DaggerXIV Actually in Greek, philei means " female friend ". Just for reference, it's written like so: "φίλη"
Komnilord 2000
I had time to check the meaning again and you're right!
It's the kind of love between friends, though Aristotele said it included other examples.
indeed and in fact "Zhn" is the ancient greek word for life or simply "to live". Today the word has been simplyfied to "Ζωή" which also means life.
Komnilord 2000
I have an ancient greek dictionary back from high school and I couldn't quite get how to find the meaning of Zen.
Thanks for telling me!
you are very welcome!
this dungeon is very depressing :(
I’m not looking forward to this supposed fourth labyrinth then
All hail Myriad Arrows
My heart
hey this team you used right here, do you recommend it for like the whole playthrough?
SenskiYT 安志栄 yea
SenskiYT 安志栄 Well, the only reason he's using Zen and Rei is for story. You should 100% have Naoto over them.
@@slightlyaltruistic9470mitsuru works as well
STAIRS OF TIME THO YOOOOOOO
Tales of Xillia 2 and now this... :(
Why does aigis take damage after she attacks? Sorry if noob question kinda new to the game.
Shura Tensei. It raises attack by alot, but also takes away a lot of health afterwards.
He used a skill got shura tensei which decreases heals health each turn in return for extreme damage
Best friend? You mean best fiend;;
