I loved this final confrontation. After all the BS in the previous fights it ends in the best way possible imo. They went HARD on the emotional impact of the third semester, twisting the knife again and again, and it all culminating in the MGS4-esque way that it did was beautiful.
yeah he lost his persona abilities due to the metaverse crumbling from existence so arsene and the pther personas joker could use to his command no longer existed. they had to make it as real as it comes... ❤
@@emmajohnson7364 dunno about that. Been grinding party members to lvl 99 in monad before the final boss. I also gave everyone their ultimate weapons and armor and covered weaknesses. Ended up cheesing all the arcanas with just meele/rush/auto/whatever it was. As for the final arcana... i just used Armageddon. 7.8/10 would fight again.

Man, when I got everyone rank10d and this shit started. I cried during my first playthrough because of the credit song but this shit...I said I wasnt gonna cry again. I completely lost it at Broshida. That mans words shattered any remaining compsure I had left
Hearing this the first time in the story when you officially name your group I had to just leave it playing for a while, loved the fuck out of it. Goes for almost all the tracks on this game...
For real. This game can seem to make a bad song, the whole soundtrack is one beauty after another. Gentle Madman can play on repeat for a whole week and I wouldn’t get tired of it.
*SPOILERS/VENTING for the Royal Version* ..... Something that really hit me about when this song played in the final fistfight between Joker and Maruki is that, for the most part, we've associated this with the evolution of our confidants' Personas. This is the track that ties in each of our teammates' growth as people, which subsequently leads to their strengthened Personas. Yet in that final fistfight, it's somewhat opposite. Maruki's Palace is done for, the Metaverse is collapsing, and on that path of light, Joker and Maruki have lost their Personas. But in that moment, they have each reached the peak of their growth not just as Persona users, but as people. Maruki, through his pent-up frustrations, his punches and screams, comes to accept that his desired reality really is a distortion that can't be accepted, and that there isn't a way to truly escape the pain and suffering of life. And Joker, in choosing to stay with Maruki and letting him kill his regrets, shows the peak of his conviction and rebellious spirit: to be able to understand a distorted individual, yet still be able to stand by his own beliefs and strength to pursue a true reality and future till the end. Man, that entire fight from the beginning made me want to cry because I never really wanted to fight Maruki, but this moment definitely broke me to tears seeing how far both these characters have had to go to reach an understanding.
@@frisolaxod3835 Raoul is dlc and Arsene prolly didn't show up because at that time, Arsene wasn't Joker's canon persona anymore. He had became Satanael
And then you get in a fist-fight with a broken man while he screams at the injustices of the world. For some reason, victory has a bitter taste this time.
Words can't describe how much I miss this game, I just miss the day to day with it, and just hanging with your friends and dungeon hopping. I'll always remember the characters and how they were just awesome.
true it is hard to move on i bought so many games yesterday and i still cant get over with persona 5 started to play uncharted 1 remaster just cant persona 5 out of my head
After completion of it I was depressed (cause I logged in 200 hours and loved everything about it) and definitely wanted more lol. It's too bad that we're gonna probably have to wait a long time for P6, I don't really care for the Persona dance games so they don't count for me.
They really nailed the themes in this game on every aspect. So that's what the same sounding parts in tracks are called, wouldn't have guessed there was a word for it.
"I dragged you into all this shit, and you stayed with me till the bitter end. So, thanks man." Social Link Rank 10 *Second Awakening* _Transforms his Persona into a Mythological Trickster_
There are very few games that can be considered "rational or reasonable" to do 5 playthroughs of it, especially with a game that's so damn long. Persona 5 is one of them (Or the persona series as a whole)
The most impact I had with this song is when I decided to romance Makoto, this song just made the relationship plus her second awakening even more special. I'm sure anyone who romanced any of their female teammate might have felt the same.
Well the cheeky grin on Prometheus does reflect Futaba's personality, especially when she gives you buffs during the battle, but aesthetically I prefer Necronomicon as well.
Yeah, I get It's symbolic, but the face just makes me laugh when I look at it. I also prefer Necro as a ufo appearing above you when you get ambushed and switching your positions is just perfect!
This was the OST that solidified everything for me and made me realize that this is going to be one hell of a journey. I'll never forget the moment Joker, Ryuji, Morgana, and Ann decided to keep helping others and change the world; thus forming the Phantom Thieves. It was indeed a long journey and it was absolutely incredible!
Same. Sucks having to pretend to be a functional human being and smile and crap most of the time; it gets even harder after finishing something like *that.*
THAT moment in Royal honestly made me tear up a little bit. The emotion and voice acting was so well done, and having this song in the background was the cherry on top.
I am thou, Thou art I Different sides of the same coin are we When someone needed you, you heeded their plea Thou has made a vow and turned said vow into a blood oath Thou has done well to those around you You have made acquaintances friends that are true The Arcana of fools started it all With it, the World of fear, denial, and a fake future Trickster Do you swear on you bones?
Same. Goro Akechi is one of my favorite characters in all of fiction. All he ever wanted was to be loved and treated like he mattered. This intense, all-consuming desire drove him to become the person he is during the story of P5. Cool, collected, and eloquent on the outside, yet underneath his outward facade, hides an emotionally broken, psychopathic, ruthless, and mentally unhinged person. My favorite scene involving him is the moment after Joker's fight with him. Akechi slumps to the ground in defeat, and questions Joker about why he's so special, and why he's so much better than himself. Akechi breaks in this moment, spilling out his heart with a torrent of emotions that we'd never seen from the character. Letting slip all of his suppressed emotions, and showing that he's truly just a kid who was never given the love and care that a child needs, and became a monster because of it. The voice acting during this moment in particular was absolutely outstanding, and was throughout the whole story, but it's quality was really accentuated during and after the fight in Shido's palace. It's always stuck with me.
@@isthisnameok6411 Does it really matter? I just felt like expressing my love for Akechi's character in more words than just, "Yeah, he's best boi." These are UA-cam comments, none of them truly matter lol.
@@frisolaxod3835 it's okay to cry. As long as the tears don't bring you down and you can get back up, cry as much as you want. You know, no matter the problem there will always be someone who gets it and is willing to listen.
I am a therapist and I am crying, just finished the game. Come, hit me. I feel empty. Morgana is gone and I got so attached to that damn gremlin cat, I am afraid I will never feel again. :c
Out of any game I've played there are only a few scenes I will never watch on UA-cam, just to preserve the feeling and emotion the moment conveys when I replay it. This is one of those moments. God when the meter was filling up, when I saw my confidents cheering me on, the symbolism and everything about this part was amazing.
*Necronomicon:* "What denies you is an illusion. A curse put upon you by the heartless. You knew from the very beginning. And yet, you cowered in fear. Will you die as you are told? Who will you obey? Cursed words spat out by a seething illusion? Or the truth within your own soul?" *Futaba:* "I'm going to trust my own heart and my own eyes to distinguish the truth from the lies. And I won't be led astray by other's voices either. There's no way you're my mom, you're just a fake created by those horrid adults! I....I'll never....I'LL NEVER FORGIVE THEM!"
This song will always make me feel so much emotions, for many reasons. One is that Makoto is my favorite character in the game, and she was the very first confidant I maxed out on my first playthrough, so it reminds me of her. Second, it reminds me of all of the incredible characters in this game, and how Atlus managed to make each and every one have a compelling backstory that made me feel lucky to befriend them. And finally, Alpharad’s videos, which have gotten me through so many rough patches in my life. In fact, he was the one who inspired me to pick up this game and make me view the world in a whole different way.
Whenever I re/play a persona game, I always wish my life was as beautiful and as fun as theirs. Makes me so jealous. I guess that’s why I love these games, they make me feel emotions. The time I spend with the characters, how I laugh,cry, smile, how I got jealous when Akechi spoke to Makoto(haha yes I know), even just the music that comes out of these masterpieces of a game is enough to bring me to absolute tears. Enough to make me bawl, enough for me. Fills me with courage, hope and happiness. Makes me wish I could feel that way about my own life. Makes me wish I was strong enough to do what I want to do. Makes me wish I’m more than I am. Makes me wish I could just be more than a side character, more than a NPC. Makes me motivated. Helps make me get ready in the morning. Helps pump me up, and when I start feeling down, I listen to a Persona song and either cry it all out or get transported to another world again. I wish there was more beauty for me to see, I wish there was more places to escape. To just, see a wonderful world, full of possibilities, is impossible for me until I put on my headphones.
(Yes, I did take the time to write this scene out) "Sorry to cut your flight short like that. ...This place is done for. Along with the entire reality I dreamed of..." *staff falls to the ground* "I... have lost. Even if I were to try that fight over, I'm sure I'd only lose again." "So I know... this is going to sound pretty stupid. I've been holding this all in for so long, just hiding it from myself... So, please..." "Help me kill every last one of my regrets. You're the only one I can ask to help me with this, ___-kun." [Very well]/[I'm here for you] *Outfit vanishes* *Mask fades away* "The disappearance of my Palace--of the entire Metaverse--is drawing near. Seems like neither of use can summon our Personas anymore." "Let's begin." "I gave up everything! Everything!!! So, why?!" "Why... Why Rumi!?" "A reality where... No one suffers..." "Haaaaaah!" "I'm done. I get it now. All thanks to you."
Lmao I spent my second play through trying to get all my confidents however by the end I realized I made the mistake of prioritizing my team members instead of the others. So I never did sun arcana and it took me to November to learn about the "get smoked" Kid ha. Now I gotta play again
Rest In Peace, fellow gamer. May the wings of rebellion breaketh thy chains of captivity, and ascend you to the heavens. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF F F FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF F F F F F
Jacob Smith persona was one of his favourite games. after his death i picked this up and it’s become one of my favourite games. and i think that’s worth swearing to your bones for
I AM THOU, THOU ART I Thou hast acquired a new vow, It shall become the wings of rebellion that breaketh thy chains of captivity, With the birth of the Banger Persona, I have obtained the wings of blessing that shall lead to Jams and new Eargasms.
the game and the music made me believe in myself to become a composer myself! this game truely is something really special and we should forever hold on to it!
Thank you Shoji Meguro, I couldn't think of a more fitting song to show appreciation for this man's work on this series and attempting to fulfil his new dream as an independent developer.
[P5R SPOILERS] Probably the most emotional moment of the whole game was when Maruki says:"The disappearance of my Palace--of the entire Metaverse--is drawing near. Seems like neither of use can summon our Personas anymore". Then the camera switches to Joker and his mask disappears and this song kicks in just the right moment, it made cry so much because It's a call out to the player basically saying "Your journey is over, finish the fight and be ready to say goodbye to this world."
This song gave me strength to finally feel happiness. After dozens of days of despair and hopelessness. The song helped end the hardest time of my life and open a new chapter. It may a be a video game, but the emotions and wisdom it taught me have been a greater teacher than most people ive ever known. That's why i cry when i hear this beautiful song.
Teddie: I don't know who I am... I've thought a number of times... that maybe there is no answer... But I'm here, I live here... I'm not alone, I'm sure I'll fine it. 2:06: A light blue aura emanates through Teddie's chest Teddie's Persona Kintoki-Doji transforms into Kamui Teddie: I can sense a new power... I feel beary unstoppable now... No, wait... I've been reborn anew!
Now that I've long since beaten this game, I can be thoroughly sure when I say that Futaba is the exact reason I love this track. For me, Futaba is best girl, and not just because appearance. I emotionally related to her and the issues she had around people since her change of heart. I emotionally related to her because her anxiety out in the open resonated with me so much. In a way... I saw myself in her, and I guess that's why I held on to her as my favorite character. *NOW IF ONLY SOJIRO WOULD STOP WITH HIS EVIL GLARES ON VALENTINE'S DAY FOR BRINGING FUTABA OVER*
It works so well! But for multiple reasons. The Shadows represent what you repress or wish to deny about yourself. Hence, Yosuke's is about his small-town boredom, Yukiko's is her dissatisfaction with how her fate has been decided for her... But Futaba's is based on her self-worth which she's denying because of PTSD over her mother's death. It shows that Shadows aren't inherently good nor bad.
Her awakening is a Persona 4 awakening. Futaba needed to face a truth she hide in her inerself. The truth that she isn't the reason why her mom died. She accepted that truth, she accepted her own Shadow and awake her Persona.
Maruki: I GAVE UP EVERYTHING!! Me: I gave up everything too... It's hard and I know that. But living in a false reality that takes away your freedom of choice is living a painful lie. It's also painful that the thing you wanted in life could never be real, but that's why we have to build our own way of life in the reality we live. And that life we build in reality is our own way of happiness.
The fact that the part in 2:07 is the same little part in “ with the stars and us “ is just brilliant. I love when composers reuse rhythms in other songs, like how in “ the field of hopes and dreams” it has the same little part as in “ Don’t forget”. It adds so much more to music and I wish more people did it.
Fuckin A man, morgona was my right hand man (cat) because I mained him with him being the team healer and all, and when he disappeared I reached up for morgona when he was disappearing, and when he returned I teared up because he had returned to us Phantom Theives Of Hearts.
No matter what, this theme is my all time fave in P5. It conveys so much all at once, and it's intensity just makes it sounds more amazing. When I say intensity I don't mean huge or crazy but... the feeling it hits you with. The power of it all... I could never get sick of this song
PERSONA 5 ROYAL MAJOR SPOILERS!! I got so excited when Adam came on to the battle and started doing full force over and over again. It really displayed the power Maruki had in his persona. But most importantly, this fist fight that happened was so cool and felt personal, you gave this man hope that he could achieve his dream, he did all of this because of you. You were his guiding light. You gave Maruki everything he could wish for, only to have it torn apart by the same person who enabled him. It made you feel so bad, Maruki’s cry’s and screams felt real. Maruki was not right, but he was not wrong to want to give everyone their wish. The Phantom Theives are the same as Maruki, just different view points. It’s right to want to fight crime, but it’s wrong to force people to confess and mess with their mental state. This game was already amazing, Royal put a more sad, but real ending that we can relate to.
If I die my final request I would like this song to be played at my funeral not as a joke but really just have it play out. Though I doubt I’ll be gone too soon just when the day comes.
Quick, before anyone finds out Edit your comment and make it spoiler free *I swear to my bones* that someone who hasnt finished royal yet is going to find this comment
Man, I can not wait to dive back into P5 with Royal, I'm holding myself back from playing P5 again before then but it's damn tempting when I've got so much of the soundtrack in my normal listening habits lol
To the friends who stuck by my side To the people who lent a helping hand To the people I helped To the people who saw me for someone other than what I was labeled as To my family To my lover To anyone who was there Thank you for being with me, and letting me gain the strength to continue on throughout this journey Am I talking about Persona 5, or am I talking about real life? It depends, but the feeling is the same for both.
Having this song play when you encourage each of the Phantom Thieves not to give up and while all your Confidants encourage you in the final boss.... damn that was a great feeling
Peeps cheering on the thieves was cool and all but the 3rd semester gets a far better scene. Spoilers ahead At first Maruki looks like any other opponent we faced so far, ready to atone... And then he glares at Joker, a look which shows that for the first time in his life, he feels pure anger towards the guy and starts punching his friend in frustration. Not one shadow, hell not even Akechi or Shadow Shido opposed us THIS much, keep in mind that while other bosses might have took 2 or in Yaldabaoth's cases, 3 rounds, Maruki took four rounds to finally accept defeat.
This song just hits me in the feels and gets me to remember how I played this game almost day to day for maybe a year. It practically became part of my every day life at some point when I was going to high school myself. Then I got to do that again with Royal when it first came out and I had even more fun with it than before. Such a phenominal game.
This music just makes me sad because it’s end game... I don’t know wtf I’m gonna do once I finish royal, I was already EMPTY af when I finished the original :(

tearing up a little when this started playing at that point of the boss
That part was seriously depressing

I CAST FIST
I love how Joker's health meter doesn't even have a mask anymore during the final fistfight. It really does add a nice touch the whole thing.
yeah he lost his persona abilities due to the metaverse crumbling from existence so arsene and the pther personas joker could use to his command no longer existed. they had to make it as real as it comes... ❤

.....
Something that really hit me about when this song played in the final fistfight between Joker and Maruki is that, for the most part, we've associated this with the evolution of our confidants' Personas. This is the track that ties in each of our teammates' growth as people, which subsequently leads to their strengthened Personas. Yet in that final fistfight, it's somewhat opposite. Maruki's Palace is done for, the Metaverse is collapsing, and on that path of light, Joker and Maruki have lost their Personas. But in that moment, they have each reached the peak of their growth not just as Persona users, but as people. Maruki, through his pent-up frustrations, his punches and screams, comes to accept that his desired reality really is a distortion that can't be accepted, and that there isn't a way to truly escape the pain and suffering of life.

worse part it hurts to finish the game i really got attached to ryuji and others
Me too, I fell into a gaming depression after the final boss and that final cutscene. I miss the routine of spending time with party members.
true it is hard to move on i bought so many games yesterday and i still cant get over with persona 5 started to play uncharted 1 remaster just cant persona 5 out of my head

Im not gonna lie, the parts when this song was playing had me on the verge of fucking tears.
dude same. The feels were way too strong with this lmao
Same! This theme hits really hard! :‘)
Mainly just the ending one with Morgana for me
DeathB4Dishonor this and hoshi to bokura to almost made me cry tbh (the feels man, the feels)

Ah yes music therory is great
Holy shit it’s been a year since I’ve played the game and I never knew that.
How to make ME cry:
1. Throw an inspirational moment in a video game
2. Play this song
"A simple spell, but quite unbreackable"
Can relate btw
my feels when i maxed out ryuji's social link
That's how I felt too, his speech about always being there for you cause you were there for him. Hit me, gave me chills. Bros before hoes😤

I legit had trouble functioning the day after I finished Royal...
Same lol
I still have to this day, man.
Replay it
Me too and then literally the next day I replayed it lol
Same. Sucks having to pretend to be a functional human being and smile and crap most of the time; it gets even harder after finishing something like *that.*
THAT moment in Royal honestly made me tear up a little bit. The emotion and voice acting was so well done, and having this song in the background was the cherry on top.
Between the soft acoustic strumming, the drum rolls, and the twanging chorus guitar mixing with the piano, this song punishes feels.
I cry every time I listen to this song, and whenever a heartfelt moment involving Futaba plays. I just resonate with Futaba immensely.
Same fam. Same.
Futaba is lovely.
I am thou,
Thou art I
Different sides of the same coin are we
When someone needed you, you heeded their plea
Thou has made a vow and turned said vow into a blood oath
Thou has done well to those around you
You have made acquaintances friends that are true
The Arcana of fools started it all
With it, the World of fear, denial, and a fake future
Trickster
Do you swear on you bones?
Don’t know if I’m the only one but akechi’s character hit me hard
Same. Goro Akechi is one of my favorite characters in all of fiction. All he ever wanted was to be loved and treated like he mattered. This intense, all-consuming desire drove him to become the person he is during the story of P5. Cool, collected, and eloquent on the outside, yet underneath his outward facade, hides an emotionally broken, psychopathic, ruthless, and mentally unhinged person. My favorite scene involving him is the moment after Joker's fight with him. Akechi slumps to the ground in defeat, and questions Joker about why he's so special, and why he's so much better than himself. Akechi breaks in this moment, spilling out his heart with a torrent of emotions that we'd never seen from the character. Letting slip all of his suppressed emotions, and showing that he's truly just a kid who was never given the love and care that a child needs, and became a monster because of it. The voice acting during this moment in particular was absolutely outstanding, and was throughout the whole story, but it's quality was really accentuated during and after the fight in Shido's palace. It's always stuck with me.
Gunsblazin94 uhh kinda big for reply to some one saying that akechi is best Boi but cool
@@isthisnameok6411 Does it really matter? I just felt like expressing my love for Akechi's character in more words than just, "Yeah, he's best boi." These are UA-cam comments, none of them truly matter lol.
adachi tho
That one guy you ruined the vibe get out
I'm getting a sudden urge to beat my Therapist.
But, like, crying??
@@frisolaxod3835 it's okay to cry.
As long as the tears don't bring you down and you can get back up, cry as much as you want.
You know, no matter the problem there will always be someone who gets it and is willing to listen.
I am a therapist and I am crying, just finished the game. Come, hit me. I feel empty. Morgana is gone and I got so attached to that damn gremlin cat, I am afraid I will never feel again. :c
Out of any game I've played there are only a few scenes I will never watch on UA-cam, just to preserve the feeling and emotion the moment conveys when I replay it.
This is one of those moments. God when the meter was filling up, when I saw my confidents cheering me on, the symbolism and everything about this part was amazing.
Only game where you can see Satan shoot god in the face with a gun the size of the empire state building....
And root for him
Controlled by a angsty Teen.
but is it REALLY God? I mean, the Christian God?
After playing several of the SMT games, I will always root for God getting shot in the face.
MrGSABIorek no, is a false god from gnosticism (i don't really remember too much)
*Necronomicon:* "What denies you is an illusion. A curse put upon you by the heartless. You knew from the very beginning. And yet, you cowered in fear. Will you die as you are told? Who will you obey? Cursed words spat out by a seething illusion? Or the truth within your own soul?"
*Futaba:* "I'm going to trust my own heart and my own eyes to distinguish the truth from the lies. And I won't be led astray by other's voices either. There's no way you're my mom, you're just a fake created by those horrid adults! I....I'll never....I'LL NEVER FORGIVE THEM!"
This song will always make me feel so much emotions, for many reasons. One is that Makoto is my favorite character in the game, and she was the very first confidant I maxed out on my first playthrough, so it reminds me of her. Second, it reminds me of all of the incredible characters in this game, and how Atlus managed to make each and every one have a compelling backstory that made me feel lucky to befriend them. And finally, Alpharad’s videos, which have gotten me through so many rough patches in my life. In fact, he was the one who inspired me to pick up this game and make me view the world in a whole different way.
Makoto Best waifu, i love her
me too bud me too sadly
@@extramisiones I see why she's the best waifu now.
In my first playthrough I went for Futaba.
Same. Alpharad got me into the persona series, and I feel like a different person entirely now.

Whenever I re/play a persona game, I always wish my life was as beautiful and as fun as theirs. Makes me so jealous. I guess that’s why I love these games, they make me feel emotions. The time I spend with the characters, how I laugh,cry, smile, how I got jealous when Akechi spoke to Makoto(haha yes I know), even just the music that comes out of these masterpieces of a game is enough to bring me to absolute tears. Enough to make me bawl, enough for me.
Fills me with courage, hope and happiness.
Makes me wish I could feel that way about my own life.
Makes me wish I was strong enough to do what I want to do.
Makes me wish I’m more than I am.
Makes me wish I could just be more than a side character, more than a NPC.
Makes me motivated.
Helps make me get ready in the morning. Helps pump me up, and when I start feeling down, I listen to a Persona song and either cry it all out or get transported to another world again. I wish there was more beauty for me to see, I wish there was more places to escape.
To just, see a wonderful world, full of possibilities, is impossible for me until I put on my headphones.
for me the boss fight went from:
"HOW MANY TIMES DO WE HAVE TO TEACH YOU THIS LESSON OLD MAN!!!"
to
"please just stay down I don't want to hurt you"
For me it was: "Its too late for regrets "doctor", because for this you will need much more to remedy it in my eyes".
(Yes, I did take the time to write this scene out)
"Sorry to cut your flight short like that.
...This place is done for.
Along with the entire reality I dreamed of..."
*staff falls to the ground*
"I... have lost.
Even if I were to try that fight over, I'm sure I'd only lose again."
"So I know... this is going to sound pretty stupid.
I've been holding this all in for so long, just hiding it from myself...
So, please..."
"Help me kill every last one of my regrets.
You're the only one I can ask to help me with this, ___-kun."
[Very well]/[I'm here for you]
*Outfit vanishes*
*Mask fades away*
"The disappearance of my Palace--of the entire Metaverse--is drawing near.
Seems like neither of use can summon our Personas anymore."
"Let's begin."
"I gave up everything!
Everything!!!
So, why?!"
"Why... Why Rumi!?"
"A reality where...
No one suffers..."
"Haaaaaah!"
"I'm done. I get it now.
All thanks to you."
*Cries a fucking tsunami* i feel so bad for Maruki
SCREW YOU DONT MAKE ME CRY AGAIND FKSNDJDJDJDJDJ
Just witness that scene last night
This is so sad...
I really love the character. He is one of my favorites, after all
"Give him his final warning!'

You choose the wrong enemy!
You choose the wrong enemy! *Point at false god*
So wonderfull
2:07 "From here on, this is the official formation of the Phantom Thieve organization..!!"
the sun arcana made me cry
well it is the sun after all
Indeed. The japonese Bernie Sanders confidant was one of the best non-party ones.
F _ I didn't know the sun can make you cry... usually when I look at the sun I get blinded and dizzy...
Lmao I spent my second play through trying to get all my confidents however by the end I realized I made the mistake of prioritizing my team members instead of the others. So I never did sun arcana and it took me to November to learn about the "get smoked" Kid ha. Now I gotta play again
Yoshida's speech killed me. What a wonderful man

The feels, the build up and the encore this is truly an epic masterpiece. Always manage to pull some strings in my heart.
A Reality Where No One Suffers
"I see... When a god plays naughty, it's a demon lord's duty to take him down. What better finale could there be for a Trickster ?"
“Help me kill every last one of my regrets.”

I AM THOU, THOU ART I
Thou hast acquired a new vow,
It shall become the wings of rebellion
that breaketh thy chains of captivity,
With the birth of the Banger Persona,
I have obtained the wings of blessing
that shall lead to Jams and new Eargasms.
the game and the music made me believe in myself to become a composer myself! this game truely is something really special and we should forever hold on to it!
I never realized that a single song could make me feel so damn happy... This song is just downright beautiful in every single way.
Thank you Shoji Meguro, I couldn't think of a more fitting song to show appreciation for this man's work on this series and attempting to fulfil his new dream as an independent developer.
It’s such a bittersweet theme. Makes me miss the crew
[P5R SPOILERS]
Probably the most emotional moment of the whole game was when Maruki says:"The disappearance of my Palace--of the entire Metaverse--is drawing near.
Seems like neither of use can summon our Personas anymore".
Then the camera switches to Joker and his mask disappears and this song kicks in just the right moment, it made cry so much because It's a call out to the player basically saying "Your journey is over, finish the fight and be ready to say goodbye to this world."
But say hello to New Game+ and cry even more than you did before! Lmao
I thought “Hideo Kojima?”
Swoosh Playz and notice things that you wouldn’t have noticed before!
This song gave me strength to finally feel happiness. After dozens of days of despair and hopelessness. The song helped end the hardest time of my life and open a new chapter. It may a be a video game, but the emotions and wisdom it taught me have been a greater teacher than most people ive ever known. That's why i cry when i hear this beautiful song.
Teddie: I don't know who I am... I've thought a number of times... that maybe there is no answer... But I'm here, I live here... I'm not alone, I'm sure I'll fine it.
2:06: A light blue aura emanates through Teddie's chest
Teddie's Persona Kintoki-Doji transforms into Kamui
Teddie: I can sense a new power... I feel beary unstoppable now... No, wait... I've been reborn anew!
Amazing how the same exact song played in two different big moments can change the tone of it so much.
200 hours of my life for this game was worth it.
Such a good game and good sound track this will truly go down in history as one of the best sounds tracks for a game.
Now that I've long since beaten this game, I can be thoroughly sure when I say that Futaba is the exact reason I love this track.
For me, Futaba is best girl, and not just because appearance. I emotionally related to her and the issues she had around people since her change of heart. I emotionally related to her because her anxiety out in the open resonated with me so much. In a way... I saw myself in her, and I guess that's why I held on to her as my favorite character.
*NOW IF ONLY SOJIRO WOULD STOP WITH HIS EVIL GLARES ON VALENTINE'S DAY FOR BRINGING FUTABA OVER*
Trust me, I also see myself in Futaba. In more ways then one.
*HOO BOI*
@Riser gamersweet home Alabama intensifys
Translation: "I watch step sister porn"
PREACH BROTHER PREACH
this plays when Futaba gets her persona, it reminds me of Persona 4 :D
It works so well! But for multiple reasons.
The Shadows represent what you repress or wish to deny about yourself. Hence, Yosuke's is about his small-town boredom, Yukiko's is her dissatisfaction with how her fate has been decided for her...
But Futaba's is based on her self-worth which she's denying because of PTSD over her mother's death. It shows that Shadows aren't inherently good nor bad.
Her awakening is a Persona 4 awakening. Futaba needed to face a truth she hide in her inerself. The truth that she isn't the reason why her mom died. She accepted that truth, she accepted her own Shadow and awake her Persona.
Plus the coma, that happened when people accepted their shadows in Persona 4.
Maruki: I GAVE UP EVERYTHING!!
Me: I gave up everything too... It's hard and I know that. But living in a false reality that takes away your freedom of choice is living a painful lie. It's also painful that the thing you wanted in life could never be real, but that's why we have to build our own way of life in the reality we live. And that life we build in reality is our own way of happiness.
The fact that the part in 2:07 is the same little part in “ with the stars and us “ is just brilliant. I love when composers reuse rhythms in other songs, like how in “ the field of hopes and dreams” it has the same little part as in “ Don’t forget”. It adds so much more to music and I wish more people did it.
Such a beautiful track. Whenever 2:06 plays, my blood runs cold.
well my blood runs somewhere else

“Fistfight”
ʇɥƃıɟʇsıɟ
LIQUIIIIIDDDD
one of the saddest moments in p5r imo
Spoiler
I loved this from when Morgana returns, made the scene all that much more emotional T.T
Fuckin A man, morgona was my right hand man (cat) because I mained him with him being the team healer and all, and when he disappeared I reached up for morgona when he was disappearing, and when he returned I teared up because he had returned to us Phantom Theives Of Hearts.
“UGH! RECYCLED GAGS SUCK!”
The epic fist fight between_____ and_____at the last palace😭
Thx for spoiler free
"I gave up everything! EVERYTHING!"
"So why!?"
Biohazard
“Why.. Why Rumi?!”
Gave off Tifa-Scarlet bitch slap vibes.
@@supremeoverlord0 I feel guilty for thinking that when the scene happened.
This is one of those games where you just wish you could forget the story so you can play it again! 😢😭
Imagine if 2:07 immediately began playing as soon as the fist fight started.
5: confidants cheer on during final battle
Royal: “I gave up EVERYTHING!”
Strikers: “I’ve got it. I’ll join the Phantom Thieves.”
No matter what, this theme is my all time fave in P5. It conveys so much all at once, and it's intensity just makes it sounds more amazing. When I say intensity I don't mean huge or crazy but... the feeling it hits you with. The power of it all... I could never get sick of this song
Who dares dislike this video
Yaldabaoth
Shido
Joe
@@ilovemeltedsand OhNo's bizarre breakdown because he knows he disliked
Kamoshida, Madarame, Kaneshiro, Shido, and Yaldabaoth.
Such a perfect soundtrack in this game... I tear up when I hear this thinking about the amazing 160 hour journey I took with this game.
PERSONA 5 ROYAL MAJOR SPOILERS!!
I got so excited when Adam came on to the battle and started doing full force over and over again. It really displayed the power Maruki had in his persona. But most importantly, this fist fight that happened was so cool and felt personal, you gave this man hope that he could achieve his dream, he did all of this because of you. You were his guiding light. You gave Maruki everything he could wish for, only to have it torn apart by the same person who enabled him. It made you feel so bad, Maruki’s cry’s and screams felt real. Maruki was not right, but he was not wrong to want to give everyone their wish. The Phantom Theives are the same as Maruki, just different view points. It’s right to want to fight crime, but it’s wrong to force people to confess and mess with their mental state. This game was already amazing, Royal put a more sad, but real ending that we can relate to.
If in Vanilla you fought for the world. Then in Royal you fought for yourself.
I would visit Thieves Den, gone to the movie section, visited the scenes that hit me the most, specifically Yaldaboath's and Maruki's arc
I swear to my bones, this is who I am and who I will be!
If I die my final request I would like this song to be played at my funeral not as a joke but really just have it play out. Though I doubt I’ll be gone too soon just when the day comes.
Same fam. Same.
Its honestly how I'd like to go out. With something that truely gets the feelings out.

Man, I can not wait to dive back into P5 with Royal, I'm holding myself back from playing P5 again before then but it's damn tempting when I've got so much of the soundtrack in my normal listening habits lol
Thanks dude, this is great!
I love this music, dude thank you for making this video
Persona 5's soundtrack is beautiful
To the friends who stuck by my side
To the people who lent a helping hand
To the people I helped
To the people who saw me for someone other than what I was labeled as
To my family
To my lover
To anyone who was there
Thank you for being with me, and letting me gain the strength to continue on throughout this journey
Am I talking about Persona 5, or am I talking about real life?
It depends, but the feeling is the same for both.
Having this song play when you encourage each of the Phantom Thieves not to give up and while all your Confidants encourage you in the final boss.... damn that was a great feeling
Peeps cheering on the thieves was cool and all but the 3rd semester gets a far better scene. Spoilers ahead
At first Maruki looks like any other opponent we faced so far, ready to atone... And then he glares at Joker, a look which shows that for the first time in his life, he feels pure anger towards the guy and starts punching his friend in frustration. Not one shadow, hell not even Akechi or Shadow Shido opposed us THIS much, keep in mind that while other bosses might have took 2 or in Yaldabaoth's cases, 3 rounds, Maruki took four rounds to finally accept defeat.
I GAVE UP EVERYTHING! EVERYTHING!
This, and the Nier:Automata soundtracks, just wreck me if they catch me in that kind of mood. Which is very often.
Ryuji's Rank 10 conversation was the one that hit me the hardest.
2:07 When your Pokemon evolves because you maxed out their Happiness.
THE FUCKING FEELS
A true bond.
This song just hits me in the feels and gets me to remember how I played this game almost day to day for maybe a year. It practically became part of my every day life at some point when I was going to high school myself. Then I got to do that again with Royal when it first came out and I had even more fun with it than before.
Such a phenominal game.
This music just makes me sad because it’s end game... I don’t know wtf I’m gonna do once I finish royal, I was already EMPTY af when I finished the original :(
