I hope you enjoy returning to these videos as much as I have! Let me know what kind of content you want to see coming from ThoughtBubble moving forward!
When it comes to Sumire's counseling session, if isolated and out of context, Maruki's examples of thought exercises such as "Would that person do this?", "This person wouldn't do that", "Can you still imagine what your sister was like?" and "If your sister was in your shoes, what do you think she'd do?" could be considered as him helping her understand and navigate through the "bargaining" stage of her grieving process... In context, IT REALLY IS a man supporting delusions and making a girl dissociate from her own identity😬
Honestly the more times I revisit Royal, the more I’m utterly disgusted and horrified by Maruki’s methods in his sessions with Sumire and the Phantom thieves. I get what happened to Rumi and her parents was tragic and awful. But that trauma and incident is not an excuse for Maruki to do what he does with the brainwashing and everything in the third semester.
Yeah, while Maruki definitely had his own stuff going on, how he handled everything with Sumire and his Actualization were just impossibly out of line.
What i think is the worsr about Sumiere is that shes not even Kasumi. Shes the idealized version of her sister that Sumiere made in her head. He took away her real personness. Horrifying
I do think the awkward maruki trait is a cultural thing and well accepted in japan, maybe because it shows selflessness and respect to your clients, idk
Stumbled onto this somewhat recently and it's been an interesting watch so far. Though, out of curiosity, was there a reason you didn't cover Futaba's sort of session with Maruki? I think that one had some things worth a bit of pondering and such.
DUDE I LITERALLY JUST FINISHED PERSONA 5 ROYAL LIKE YESTERDAY and watched your Maruki Psychology video!! Only for you to upload a video to react to him recently,that’s crazy…. But of course,Maruki’s way of thinking is such a nice topic that will become relevant forever for the issues that we currently have in the world
yay! a compilation of your counselor reacts video's. thanks Jon i was just thinking i wanted to watch these again. i really can't pick a favourite because i love them all , but for me the best part is how it starts off so well and then it just gets worse , and worse...and WORSE😅😅until your like ''oh boy this isn't going to end well at all🤣🤣😅😅

Yeahhh, the context of it all REALLY shines a light on how messed up this all is.

love your vid on adachi one of the best portrayal of antisocial personality disorder in fiction I think
Thank you so much! I put a lot of effort into that Adachi video, so I'm really glad you enjoyed it!
Dr Maruki is my most favorite character in all of persona so far. I played, 3, 4 and 5. This man is so relatable
Psychology has always been interesting to me. It was cool to find a game that is essentially built around it.
The Full Saga....In One Video!!!!!!! I was introduced and inspired by you through these!!!!!!!
Thank you so much! I'm glad to make it more convenient to return to these!
This is insane I was just watching through this series for the first time and you just did a whole compilation. Thank you and I’ll send to my friends.
I hope you are enjoying them, and I hope your friends do too!

Early, and holy crap I love Dr. Maruki, thanks for doing this!
Of course! I hope you enjoys them all! It was pretty nostalgic for me going back and watching them!

Yeahhh, it all goes down hill very quickly! And I'm glad that you enjoyed them! I hope this makes it easier to go back to each one!
Absolutely amazing how much time and effort you put into this, great vid!
I wish you could had left Joker's part in your video as 'Joker' but other than that, love seeing all of the videos in one piece.
The complete journey…
I hope this makes it easier to return to!
Dr. Maruki is unethical :p
I absolutely love these videos so much, thank you!
Of course! I'm glad you enjoy them!
