Ngl, I think Akechi's killshot on "Ren" is done better here than the game. How it takes on the red background of an all out attack finisher combined with "Ren's" brains being blown out the other side. Also Akechi doing a "I'm here to rescue you." psyche out was great too. It felt more like something Akechi would do, taking a brief moment to savor the kill.
I wasn't expecting to agree, but I absolutely do. With the same animation quality that we got in the game, and some reworks, this could have been STELLAR for royal.
Honestly, the best thing about the anime IMO is how Akechi was handled, his dynamic with Ren is WAY more fleshed out here and you can see it affects them both.
I will never get over Xander Mobus being like, look at me, I'm a twink boy, and then he puts on THE voice. How does this deep voice even come out of this man, jeez
Yeah tell me about it only thing you can do is hope you still have you wallet on you for new clothes and bus fare home before the police find the murder weapon.
And Akechi has 2, in game Mona says "even his appearance was a fake!" implying Robin Hood is a fake Persona. Cendrillon kinda started out as a fake persona too for "Kasumi" before her rebirth
@@ryojifan notice how I said "before her rebirth", I know her Persona evolves through maxing the confidant and getting the true end, all confidant Personas do that. My point was Cendrillion starts as a fake Persona to "Kasumi" before her real awakening as Sumire, THEN she evolves over time
@@Mr_MachoGlobe agreed. Soichiro Hoshi does great in his own right, but, especially when his true self is revealed, and especially when he goes insane, Robbie Daymond just blows his performance out of the water.
I can easily be assessed that they weren't going to look into that, as all the cops there were Shido's pawns, and Ren was being treated as nothing more than trash from the get-go.
the coroner report was so rushed and quickly signed to the point of when they faked his death they didnt even notice that there was a lack of a body. crooked government i tells ya
Bruh that Akechi line were he said I’m here to rescue you thats what you were hoping right hit hard cuz I got the bad ending on my first play through on accident 😅
It is so weird hearing Ren talk. But he does have a nice voice there. Will you make another one of these with funny scenes or more of him interacting with others? Im still weirded out that Ren didnt emote at all when Makoto wigged out and grabbed him while in Sojiro's house. Does he not react much? Ive never seen the full anime.
It's really the Voice actor who does the grunts and screaming in the game And yes, Ren does not act up much cause he can't if he Emotes to how he has been treated he'll be sent to Juvie due to that bastard Shido
@@shelbybayer200 Well I meant with friends. When going to try to talk to Futaba (did they know her name then? I forgot already) Makoto got scared and pulled on Ren's shirt, then fell down and, in the game anyway, clung on to his knee for 5 minutes and he was just standing there like nothing was happening. I guess that was a time when he got summoned to the Velvet Room? Also, that would have been a cool spot to turn into a horror game.
imma be honest, the animation makes me feel that joker/ren/akira slacked off on his confidant. i mean seriously into shido the entire phantom thieves have not upgraded their persona, like ryugi still on captain kidd instead of seiten teisei
“I bet you’re still fighting. I know you would never give up, and I know we won’t either” ‘Dude stfu I’m trying to invade a fucking palace Mishima. Fucks sake’
Sometimes I wish they made 2 versions of the dialogue. One where everyone calls Ren "This guy" because of the edited name. And another version which simply calls him Ren or his last name. And of course. When you pick an option. Ren says it himself. Beep Boop
Yeah I wish that was the case with the mcs going forward. Like they're talking more these days in the battle options so it's not like it wouldn't have been hard to just keep the spoken lines to the choices
Dude! thank you so much for uploading this video, and the previous four videos you posted on the Persona 5 anime! For the longest time now I've purposely held off from watching this anime simply because of how people would talk about it and clips of the All-Out Attacks and Sae's fight scene, like people would talk so much crap about this anime like how the animation is garbage or things along those lines and sure maybe it does have those moments but I really shouldn't have so quickly blindly believed people without actually watching this anime myself. It's thanks to you and your videos that I will be watching this anime for myself soon so again I thank you for making these videos! Even if this anime really does have it's bad moments, I'd say these videos of yours disprove what people say, that this animation is completely garbage the whole way through (I disagree with those people) and I honestly feel as if not a lot of people gave this anime a chance and judging by the clips from your videos on this anime I'd say a lot of people judged it just by clips and things people would say online instead of actual watching for themselves. I'm sure this show has it's own flaws but I don't think it's as bad as people have been telling me for so long!.
I saw this animation before playing the game (never owned a PlayStation, have played it now on Switch but didn't think I ever would at the time), however the animation I saw was on Netflix or Hulu (can't remember exactly which), which only had through the bad ending. When the show cut to its final credits right after Akechi killed Ren (it showed the final credits alongside a scene of Akechi walking down a hallway), I was so confused that that was it. Had to read on Wikipedia that there was additional material/that it was a setup with the MC still around somehow afterwards. Didn't look too much into the details until playing the game myself, though.
@@sdbzfan1 That's an outlier The deal there, is this.......... Akechi wants Ren to think he died so he can descretly help him from the shadows some day
@@sdbzfan1 theres one ending in royal where you accept maruki's reality and akechi stays alive after being brought back to life by maruki, which is basically the good bad ending. although akechi doesnt want to accept maruki's new reality, he wants to destroy maruki's palace and instead choose his own path, even if it means dying, which in this case death is guaranteed. which i find very sad
Is obvious that the plan is to left it ambigious, isn't it wierd that everyone is always "No... Akechi...it can't be...." But never straight up say that he died? That way Akechi can keep coming back in future spin-offs whitout having to explaing anything.
Persona 5R is like my favorite game ever, and I didn't know at all about that anime... I've gotta watch the entire thing now, because if I don't, my life is meaningless x)
Oh mannnn, I almost cried at the ending there, agaaain. Morgana holds up one paw like "Nine lives, binch" X,,,D Just want to cuddle that stupid bstrd cat, I love himmm even tho he stinkyyy
I wasnt able to find anywhere for the last 2 episodes in English for some reason. The place I was using stopped at episode 26, and I could only find the last 2 in Japanese :P

If they made OVAs about Royal I would start it on the night of December 24th: Ren is about to give himself up to Sae, but Akechi appears and gives himself up, before leaving the woman apologizes again for the casino, Ren has a flashback of the new beginning in which he debuts and fights with Violett The plot will be based on the new quarter, while some events generate flashbacks to previously unseen events in the series When Ren receives some messages or meets Kasumi on January 1st, he has flashbacks with her When Ren, Akechi and Kasumi enter the mysterious Palace, we see the girl's first entrance and awakening... Magical Girl transformations exist in anime, given that in the manga she is very fast When Akechi asks Ren when he met her, the first meeting is seen When they meet Maruki in the Palace, the man's introduction to school.. In the end... in the game I fail at the changes... Ren and Morgana go to greet Sumire at the station, Maruki the taxi driver accompanies them, they reach the girl as she is about to board the train, she suddenly turns and steals a kiss from him... while Ren and Morgana take the subway to return, he seems to see Akechi and sees himself reflected as Joker... in some stations the subways leave outdoors
glad i watched these videos instead of suffering through the anime - some of it doesnt seem bad i mean the VAs performances are great but the animation is… and even from these videos i can tell the pacing of it is kinda off. so you going through and getting the best bits was an honourable deed!
also, everyone hates on Mishima, even Joker in game would make snarky remarks towards him, but i sincerely love his character, especially when he needed his own heart changed but he did it himself, knowing he was doing too much. Everyone deserves a Mishima
Igor just described the whole anime in the best, funniest way possible:
*"What am I doing here?"*
Pretty Much
I will give them credit where credits is due, something about Arsene and Loki clashing while Ren and Akechi fight one-on-one is pretty rad…
ong!
This! That was pretty cool!
yeah
It does unfortunately remind me of crash bandicoot and dr Neo cortexs final battle in crash 3 though
Ngl i find it had a vibe of dan kuso vs Masquerade (the thrid battle)
Ngl, I think Akechi's killshot on "Ren" is done better here than the game. How it takes on the red background of an all out attack finisher combined with "Ren's" brains being blown out the other side.

I wasn't expecting to agree, but I absolutely do. With the same animation quality that we got in the game, and some reworks, this could have been STELLAR for royal.
tbh, i agree. this was way more dramatic and more akechi
as always, Akechis voice actor absolutely killed it.
Same voice who voices Spider-Man and some other characters
Just amazing

The moment Akechi goes batshit is the moment I actually really liked his character.
1:16 being shot at that angle irl, forensics can easily prove it wasn't a suicide.
A good amount of the police force is dirty? The faked a autopsy report before the "body" was found
Yeah, but the only cops allowed in are the ones in Shido's pocket
I can easily be assessed that they weren't going to look into that, as all the cops there were Shido's pawns, and Ren was being treated as nothing more than trash from the get-go.
the coroner report was so rushed and quickly signed to the point of when they faked his death they didnt even notice that there was a lack of a body. crooked government i tells ya
In the game it's said a few times that no one ever checked the body, that's how the Phantom Thieves got away with the plan in the first place

@@xeno_pana Mr Hee Ho is better
Bruh when Aketchi shoots his cognitive self it just lightly steps back shit cracks me upp.
1:13 That scene is so much more brutal in the anime.
Anime Kawakami is straight up fearless compared to the game she basically asks Ren if he wants to smash after operation maid watch no fucks given
The game has a better Loki reveal. You can really feel Akechi losing his mind.
10:43
“Morgana-!”
“NINE LIVES, BITCH.”
The look Kawaki gives Ren at 3:49 😳
😏
ARA ARA vibes 🥵
"OH SHIT SHE’S INTO IT!"
Basically my first thought
She's a lot thirstier than I remember
I actually think the point when Ren gets shot LOOKS cooler, just thematically speaking, than in the game.
I agree
5:24 Yukari: More like "Ace Defective", and a "Zero".
Akechi came back as a good guy in the games
"normally i hate cleaning up the attic" goes hard

Anime Ren has his priorities straight, busted ass confidant
sorry about the black bars. copyright is awesome
No worries, I actually like it. Looks like a Persona 5 border.
Looks good
8:00 I feel you Futaba, i completely feel you here... LOL. Poor Futaba!
Man, Kawakami in the game looks goofy in her maid costume, but in the anime she legit looks hot, I wonder why they did it like that...
“I bet you’re still fighting. I know you would never give up, and I know we won’t either”
‘Dude stfu I’m trying to invade a fucking palace Mishima. Fucks sake’

they don't seem to know what best moments means lol no episode is gonna have more than 4 minutes of best moments unless it's legendary.
Yo but why Sojiro’s cash register look like 2 Lego bricks
If they made OVAs about Royal
I would start it on the night of December 24th: Ren is about to give himself up to Sae, but Akechi appears and gives himself up, before leaving the woman apologizes again for the casino, Ren has a flashback of the new beginning in which he debuts and fights with Violett
The plot will be based on the new quarter, while some events generate flashbacks to previously unseen events in the series
When Ren receives some messages or meets Kasumi on January 1st, he has flashbacks with her
When Ren, Akechi and Kasumi enter the mysterious Palace, we see the girl's first entrance and awakening... Magical Girl transformations exist in anime, given that in the manga she is very fast
When Akechi asks Ren when he met her, the first meeting is seen
When they meet Maruki in the Palace, the man's introduction to school..
In the end... in the game I fail at the changes... Ren and Morgana go to greet Sumire at the station, Maruki the taxi driver accompanies them, they reach the girl as she is about to board the train, she suddenly turns and steals a kiss from him... while Ren and Morgana take the subway to return, he seems to see Akechi and sees himself reflected as Joker... in some stations the subways leave outdoors
I am noticing this a lot in the anime…
Is it me or is Kawakami more horny towards Ren for some reason, while she’s mostly awkward in the game? 😂
why when goro summoned loki he kept his mask lol
1:02 why would a guard have a silenced pistol on him wtf
He didn't, Akechi has the silencer and puts it in the guards gun admittedly insanely quick like it popped on.
Great vid
very confused at the end because of all the cuts
Maruki: not so fast
Did they seriously cram two palaces into one episode?
you forgot the Sae shot in ep 26 :(
Theres no way people only have one persona. The fuck is he on all persona MC canonically have all of them except the party members
Multiple personas is a wild card thing and morgana likely has no idea what that is
tbh even tho this shi is rushed asf it seems enjoyable from this clips
