The lack of visual effects on the new one is chilling, like, the whole thing takes awkwardly long, it feels less like you are watching a cool superpower awakening and more like this madlad is genuinely trying to rip off his face. I dig it.
Speaking of bloody awakenings, in Royal, Yoshizawa didn’t have any blood in her “first” awakening, but when she “failed” to summon Cendrillion, her face was covered in blood as she attempted to re-summon her Persona. Does that mean the blood from tearing the mask represent the Persona user’s “pain” from their “reason” for awakening? Like, both Joker and Skull were hit before they awakened, and Violet had to face the painful memory of her sister’s death, since her late sister is like the “other” self that an Persona represents.
@@jamesrobertson6591 The blood is the pain of removing the mask they keep on for so long to fit into society. It is the mask people create for themselves to hide their true self to fit into social norms due to how society will treat them for not fitting in. Yoshizawa did not have blood the first time because she was still wearing her mask to hide her true self in society and it was only the second time when she removed the actual mask why she had blood. It also reflect why wonder had more blood than Joker. Wonder had no reason to rebel against the social norms of society as he was just someone simply lost wondering about his life while just trying to fit in. Joker on the other hand had been wronged by society so he had already develop a desire to rebel against it.
I kind of wish they kept the glowing light around the mask alongside the blood. That part was cool in the original, and fusing that with the blood would have been epic.
Bro DID NOT HAVE TO BLEED THAT MUCH, his mask only covered like 1/4 of his forehead, also obvious chinese censorship so it wouldnt surprise me if old scenes looked "edgier" (also just noticed Wonder''s persona looks like AN ARQUETYPE FROM RE FANTAZIO)
I think what gets me is the bits of blood on his neck and the front of his hoodie. It makes it feel less like he just has a bunch of red paint on his face and more like he actually got injured
YES! The good stuff is back! no more sensorship, the RAW EMOTION ON DISPLAY! Edit: holy crap, the Chinese version doesn't even do the yellow eyes thing, I never noticed that.
imagine seeing someone pulling out a glasses then spilling tons of bloods with fire that turned to a white spirit, while he’s staring at you with a death stare
…I always assumed that the lack of blood was going to play into the world lore or something, like there was something we don’t know about the nature of Wonder’s abilities yet that’s different from normal awakenings. One thing is certain though, that voice performance when ripping off the mask is… not the greatest.
It's a good thing the blood goes away with the Persona flames because boy was leaking like a broken faucet. Never would've been able to wash the feeling of that all over your face off.
Kouki Uchiyama's voice whenever he speaks as Janosik is pretty chilling and quite haunting too. Almost like he was speaking as Desast (he voiced Desast in Kamen Rider Saber and Kamen Rider Outsiders too...)
Don't know why they didn't just combine the two,have the blood dripping abit while the rainbow aura shows off and also will say im glad they gave him the yellow eyes effect of the awakening
Even with that amount of blood it still looks tame, maybe because we see him from the back when he rips the mask off of his face? I think it would be more impactful if we saw it from the front
Still awaiting information, but at least the blood makes it look so Mich cooler. And we know that the 'out of China' version probably won't do any stupid censoring.
I'll be honest: Wonder's Awakening is a little weak. Also, that is just a little too much blood. The Entire Cast of P5/ Royal & Zenkichi from Strikers showed just enough of a struggle to show they have the resolve to rip that sucker off. We never see Haru's initial awakening, but, we do see her awakening the true extent of Milady's Power. Sophie's an AI, meaning she doesn't have any blood or a mask to rip off. Instead, when she awakens "PANDORA" is spelled out on her face when she screams to shatter the "mask". Wonder's Awakening doesn't even hold a *candle* to Joker or Wolf's awakenings. I will admit, he does show more of a struggle, but, that mask pull- that was pathetic, even WITH that amount of blood dripping from his face. That was wonderfully pathetic. I just know that if this game finally gets an international release, that amount of blood will definitely be toned down & the mask pull will be made to look cooler. Right?
I think it’s because this was animated without the blood initially, and they had to add in the blood later. The mask pull animation was the same before and after, so I doubt this is getting adjusted further.

which one do you like more?
The new one. That's how the awakening should be. By the way, is the Japanese version out yet?
@@ayazi.akechi the closed beta is out now, but only few chosen applicants who can play it.
New version, absolutely. So much more P5.
I love how even the shadows were like
"Jesus christ dude"
“Someone get this kid a Band-Aid !”

I don't think even Joker spilled that much blood when he removed his Mask.

BEFORE: WHERE IS BLOOD!? WE'RE NOT CHILDREN WE WANT BLOOD!!!
NOW: holy shat that too much
Gotta make it spectacular
Gotta make it Gorey
What the hell is that emoji 😭
@naxzed_it looks like Anxiety.
more blood!
That is definitely the most bloody out of all the awakenings
I kind of wish they kept the glowing light around the mask alongside the blood. That part was cool in the original, and fusing that with the blood would have been epic.
Agreed, the light made it more epic
Or even flickers of the flames of rebellion! Y'know, before it's all unleashed right after tearing the mask off.

looks like seeker
@@Hymn_IT DOES
When I first saw seeker my literal first thought was how much it looked like Wonder’s persona
@@guydude1110 no wonder it looks so badass
@@Hymn_no wonder wonder looks badass
Wonder's expression with blood and yellow eyes is making him more... crazier.
Give him a break, apparently he was a "desireless" person his whole life. His awakening brought all his desires all at once...whatever that means.
@20Hlias more exactly, he's taken his own "desire" back.
Joker also had a crazy grin when he first awakened.
@@thelonemask I mean, every persona protags does have that kinda expression like this 😏

To be fair ripping a mask on like if it had gorilla glue on it would make you bleed like crazyyy
I get people like the blood and all, but honestly both look cool.
I really want to play it man I hope it released Global soon
It already got a steam page, so it means global playtest will be soon.
@@JRPGLOVER Thats JP version, not Global.
When is JP version coming out?@@renfukuyama5385
it looks so much better imo
Yeah cause it feels so wried seeing the protag doesn’t have yellow eyes and bleeding(he bled a lot but it’s perfect) so glad they made it in.
Its nice the KR/TW releases are getting the uncensored versions and not just JP/global
Wow first time seeing a blood
The amount of blood he spilled is the same amount as his forehead
YES! The good stuff is back! no more sensorship, the RAW EMOTION ON DISPLAY!
Edit: holy crap, the Chinese version doesn't even do the yellow eyes thing, I never noticed that.
Now the yellow eyes are back in all latest versions of the game, but still no blood in the mainland version
and then he passes out from blood loss
But what the voice directors be doing they’re not taking advantage of the SCREAMING and the AGONY. Or Wonder just be chill like that 😂
wonder was stated to be a desireless person, so yea it make sense why he didn’t scream like other protags in jp dub
I hope they don’t hold back with the other awakenings. Gotta be brutal, bloody, and wild.
They’re already out there and they look standard. I’ve only seen Riko’s but hers is super short so you barely see the blood.
the rest of main casts' (expect Ruferu) got updated cutscenes with blood and yellow eyes as well.
@@Tasty_Tango45 Got any links to em?

it prob has something to do with wonder’s personality.
I think it might've had to do with China's censorship laws

Kouki Uchiyama's voice whenever he speaks as Janosik is pretty chilling and quite haunting too. Almost like he was speaking as Desast (he voiced Desast in Kamen Rider Saber and Kamen Rider Outsiders too...)
Amazing I can't wait for the global release date but I will continue to waiting 😊
Among the four protagonists I saw in Persona, he takes the third spot.
I’m so exited for this to come out on global
Don't know why they didn't just combine the two,have the blood dripping abit while the rainbow aura shows off and also will say im glad they gave him the yellow eyes effect of the awakening
I can't wait to see the uncensored versions of the other party members too!
His persona is called Janosik
Even with that amount of blood it still looks tame, maybe because we see him from the back when he rips the mask off of his face? I think it would be more impactful if we saw it from the front
i completely forgot he has an awakening
Is there any information on Wonder's real name yet?
Excellent work ❤😊
I wonder if they’ll also recreate Closer’s, Soy’s, and Wind’s persona awakenings as well.
they did
BRO RIPPED OFF HIS ENTIRE FOREHEAD
Damn thats a bloody awakening
When will global come out. I want to play it
The shadows were like: what the fuck?!
So this is why he kill my favorite character in prologue game?
They went from none to too much, no in between, and I’m all here for it
So much blood, it even got on his clothes. Christ! 😂
Everyone else didn’t bleed that much!
Whoa that's alot of blood for a chinese [localized version] developed gam- IS THAT MOUNTAIN OF SMILING BODIES.?.?!!
TABLOS ESTARÍA ORGULLOSO
SIETE PALABRAS
ESENCIA 😈
HAHAHAHA LE METIERON LA ESCENCIA POR DONDE NO ENTRA EL SOL
Is there any news on the localization of the game in Europe?
Still waiting for a worldwide release.
Who wanted blood? =)
They literally said: "I got one more in me!"
Still awaiting information, but at least the blood makes it look so Mich cooler. And we know that the 'out of China' version probably won't do any stupid censoring.
What happens when they rip the mask off? Does the mask disappear from their hand and materialise?
Do we have a global release date yet (THIS GAME IS LOOKIN GOOD ME WANT PLAYYYYYYYY)
1000x better with blood now
I prefer the one with the blood.
Sheesh that’s allot of ketchup wonder if it will stain
ngas couldnt afford a different awakening ost
Is this out yet for the USA?

@@whiteninji352 Darn.
@@luxrayblastWell, blame Chinese Censorship for that. Blood is been censored in China, the same with anything with Skull, or something like that.
@@rigelothello709 I was just saying there's too much blood here is all. I'm not asking for it to be "color corrected".
@@luxrayblast Like whiteninji already mentioned, I guess that's the result of Blood been added later.
Thank god we're not gonna get the censored chinese version 🙏
Is it just me, or does the persona's voice different than last time?🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Wait so they guve us blood because we wanted holy sbit they might actually care
That’s more like it.
Definitely better
The only thing i dont like about wonder is that he looks like a knockoff joker maybe its inteded but it doesnt look that cool tbh
What was the Beta thinking about not making the awakenings bloody?
Its because its developed and made for China first and having blood like that is a no no there.
Chinese Politics
Actually I like the old one
Wait, do we know when this coming out to the West yet?
Nope, not yet, i think there was an estimate tho for around the second half of next year
sadly no word yet but Japan will get their severs soon.
kr servers are playable even with the google accounts
Ngl the censored version looks cooler
i mean i liked both versions
Wait…………………………….
Not Chinese version? Are we getting the game in America?🤩🤩🤩
He means not Mainland Chinese version, hence the TW and KR version
@@joveyspan1979ohhhhh, so keep waiting I think
@@fanreader7847Hmm, someone in the comment said, that P5X already has their own Page in Steam. So maybe Global will get this game soon.
