25:05 Yukari: Now we can have a hug without Stupei's interruption. Makoto: I will never let you go. But I wanted to see Makoto taking her hand in the final scene.❤❤❤
I was hoping there'd be an animated kiss scene. Because honestly, a kiss would've made it feel more complete, and before the social links started, I'm pretty sure Yukari was supposed to be the love interest.
Aki: Were you in your room all this time? Makoto: Wow; went right into my business instead of turning left. Tell me; are you still reading books on how to get a girlfriend?
Aki : Hey !!! I Got a Girlfriend, She just went to a Different School, on a Alternate Universe, And just so happened to be a Gender Swap Version of You 😶 😐 😑 😞
After seeing more of her lines, I gotta say that Gonzalez did a fine job with the direction the game took with the character, as it seems more inspired by the less snarky/mean version of Yukari in the Japanese version. I still vastly prefer Ruff as I think Yukari being mean/difficult to like at times adds to her character arc of opening up and learning to be kinder, but yeah. Overall solid job for one of the best Persona characters.
I kinda wanted Makoto to at least hold Yukari’s hand after her talking @29:02. OG/FES looked really cute with her getting close to him and that he put his arms around her before Yukari said the same: “I’m blushing aren’t I?”☺️💙💗 No wonder her song in P3D was “Want To Be Close”.💃🏻🪩
Anyone wish that rank 10 of the Yukari romance showed a kiss? Because that's what I believe they should've shown. Hell, the game itself puts her into the forefront, she becomes determined to win him over with her cooking, and of course they even hug at the beach.
We do get a fake out kiss on Christmas. It's a classic trope they use in Anime when they want to backhandedly show that couple would obviously get together.
I can't believe how long it took me to realize that focusing on one or two social Links at a time is way more efficient than trying to do them all evenly
@@segiraldovi And there's her personality in the original, specifically the English version where she came off as another bitchy tsundere love interest you'd see in early 2000s romcom anime.
For some reason Yukari is a lot damn cuter here than in OG P3. I think I remember choosing Mitsuru during the OG. But for this. Damn I think it would actually be Yukari.
I knew I wasn't the only one who thought this. Yukari is adorable in Reload. I thought she was a major bitch in the original. Honestly, I'd say all the girls are so much better compared to their og counterparts.
I LOVE what Michelle Ruff did with her character, but to be honest, her performance always felt like it made Yukari a bit too mean spirited? she's always a been a bit complicated, but I think the original performance made her more harsh than they intended. This is to say that I really enjoy how she's portrayed in Reload. It feels like, both the writing and performance, consciously went out of it's way to soften her up and it's much easier to get behind her like that.
Yeah, Reload Yukari felt softer, warmer... like a warm blanket to keep you safe and in good company. She'll protect her friends like a good supporting hero she is. Not related to Yukari's description but (P4 Arena spoilers) I love Yukari becoming a superhero, being a pink ranger, and actually being a cool lead over the usual red ranger in the show she performs in.
@@mystery8820Actually the red is still the leader of the neo featherman, what we see in the p4a story for Yukari is a Pink ranger focused episode like what they usually do in sentai shows or power ranger shows
@AlteredProf That's right. Red Ranger is the leader, but each individual ranger got episodes and even entire arcs dedicated to them throughout the show.
I mean children have the tendency to imitate their parents without even realizing. Thankfully, although she deals with grief in the same way as her mom does by trying to ignore the hurt that's going on inside her heart, at least the method she goes about it with is better. All she basically did was just indulge herself in her work and studies so that she doesn't have time to think about her feelings. Although this is still not great, it's a hundred times less damaging than just randomly sleeping around with people you don't even have a connection too. And she definitely learned quicker than her mom. I mean the woman literally abandoned her kid for 10 years before she realized what truly mattered in her life which was Yukari.
This yukari is honestly more likeable than the original one in my opinion in the original she came off spiteful mean arragont and didn't seem like she care about people in this one she is mean a little hostile distant but you can see she was just lonely and she shows she cares for people the voice actress did a great job here
Yeah, I agree. Yukari in the original came off as this bitchy mean girl tsundere who'd put you down without a second thought, but here, she's cuter, more pleasant, and approachable, and her kind moments feel more natural and not just an arbitrary attempt to make her look good.
"Infinite in mystery is the gift of the Goddess We seek it thus, and take to the sky Ripples form on the water's surface The wandering soul knows no rest." LOVELESS Act I
I played episode aigis and the answer and watching this it put me sad😢😢 she deserved much happines at least the happy memories with him will stay with her keeping her promise always
WhWhat I love about the Persona franchise is that every character's Persona is unique and carefully chosen. I appreciate how their stories often reinterpret or deconstruct the characters they represent. Yukari's ultimate Persona is represented by the character of Isis, which holds significant meaning. Her husband, Osiris, is the god of the underworld who was killed by his brother, Set. Isis sought to bring him back to life and, although she succeeded in reanimating him, he had to remain in the underworld because he was technically still dead. This storyline parallels her deep desire to revive the protagonist in the "Answer" DLC.
Yukari, Yuko, and Chihiro are the only girls I feel have the most natural chemistry, so I honestly feel conflicted on who to choose. Meanwhile two of the main girls, Mitsuru and Fuuka, have shown absolutely zero romantic interest outside of their SL; how do they expect me to want to even entertain the idea of the MC ending up with either of them? I'm currently doing Fuuka's SL at rank 6, and her treatment of you so far doesn't even feel particularly special since she's consistently nice to everyone. Had she not say things like "Why do I feel this way only when I'm with you?", I would genuinely not be able to sense any intimacy whatsoever. With Mitsuru it comes almost completely out of left field so late in the game; I recently just got to rank 8 and just felt downright disgusted by how out of character she acted and how heavily she gushed over the MC like he's destined to be with her. Amongst the main girls I don't have a problem believing that you can form a romantic relationship with Yukari, since there are actual hints sprinkled about the main story, albeit not as much as I would like. And at least with Yuko and Chihiro you're bond starts early and is always consistently growing with each rank, even changing parts of the main story depending on the strength of your relationship with them. While I have yet to unlocking Aigis' SL, I'm pretty confident I wouldn't want to be intimate with a robot that's known me since childhood =|
I never played the original so I bought this one and tbh it's a tough choice between Yukari a d Chihiro. At first it was Yukari until I met the other one
Somehow someway Yukari I got out of a romance with Yukari and she never asked me any of those questions going into Rank 9. I don't know how I locked myself out but I was between her and Chihiro for this playthrough so I guess this simplifies things lol... But did anybody run into the same issue?
Yeah more info has come out; apparently I goofed up a dialogue option in Rank 6 and didn't figure it out until much later. New Game Plus bout to go crazy@@leoriobharto6997
Sorry bro but the core members of SEES are story locked so you have to reach at least a certain arc to date them. Heck there's even one girl that doesn't give you the option to date her until the very last month of the game. Not to mention, most of them you need to max out your social stats for. For Yukari, you need max Charm, Mitsuru max Academics, and Fuuka max Courage. It's a been challenging so I advise you to just concentrate on other social links while also leveling up your stats.
@@bananabunch4590 Yeah I grinded for hours all the way to 36 and I finally can talk to her but sadly I'm at 5 charm, thanks for the tips man you cool fr, have a good one.
I completely fucked it up because I picked the “If it’s nothing then I’m leaving” option and I can’t rewind time back enough to fix it I wasn’t saving as frequently as other games because I was totally over relying on this new mechanic 😔 (Edit: NEVERMIND I CHOSE A DIFFERENT DIALOGUE OPTION AND IT DIDN’T CHANGE ANYTHING??? HOW DID I FUCK UP THIS BADLY??? IS IT BECAUSE OF THE DATE OR???)
@@saturdaymidnights.4303 Nope. Still need max charm to start your link with her. But luckily, unlike the original, you're not forced into arbitrary romances without your input.

Hey, this is a comment I found in another video about Yukari's social link and one of these is probably the reason why you couldn't romance her. Commentor: Just a heads up, if you don't respond "I wouldn't mind" during rank 5-6, the romance route is dead. You have to take that option or you'll get friendzoned at rank9. You can also fail the romance route if you dont hug her during the vacation arc at the beach.
That is a nice birthday gift to Yuka-tan
Wouldn't it be Yuka-chan since Makoto has already gone all "Mass Destruction"?
@@BURNINGKAM101 Junpei sometimes refers to her as Yuka-tan so I don’t think it’s too out of place for OP to call her by that name
@@ClownEternal Tan is an informal and provocative way of chan.

It's ridiculous that energetic music plays in the background while Yukari talking about sad things in game
