@@ruukah625 They most certainly are, almost all games that are getting a sequel, prequel etc starts development during or shortly after the current game. Some games even gets developed at the same time.
Dzulfiqar F.r he didn’t say that persona 5’s trailer looked bland and uninteresting, it was other modern games that did. Just in case that you read it wrong
The funny thing is when this video was released, there are more *ENGLISH* comments than Japanese ones even though this video is Japanese! xD In fact, there are so much English comments, one of the Japanese comments said: "Japanese? Someone? Anyone? T_T" ~ random Japanese
So I've watched this a total of 60 times and liked to point out that the HYPE is real for Persona, I'll be expecting at least a huge amount of newcomers owning Persona 5. That view count though lol
The character names on the menu are from what I can tell Main Character - Main Character Blond Guy - Ryuuji Sakamoto Cat Thing - Morgana Twintails Waifu - Azumi Takamaki They also go to 秀尽学園高校 (Shuujin Academy) Don't quote me on this
I don't know about you guys, but I personally LOVE all the changes it looks like they're making with this one. From the character movement, to the art style, to the music, to the menus.... Everything about it just screams style. This coming from someone who has played and loved all of the games since Innocent Sin.
Ong Yong Qin Ive played both 3 and 4. 3 on the psp (p3p i think) and p4 emulated. I dropped persona 3 4 hours or so in. The gameplay was really stale. And persona 4 simply didn't "click". Maybe the 1+ hour intro was what killed it for me. Oh, and the abysmal dungeon designs. My point, persona 5 seems to have fixed all those "issues" that i didn't like about the previous 2 games. Dynamic classroom Fast paced stealth sections The dungeon design looks 50 times better already It's fucking tokyo Twin tailed blond girl (instant best girl) And many many more. It running on the chatherin eengine is a huge plus, too.
@@Mr.OwO2873 Said someone watched a weebish titled youtube video. Also, this is Atlus' japanese account, so I don't know, expect some weeb language? Or just embrace it. Like some of us.
that... is... AWSOME!!! So cool I can not wait! Good job!! 信じられないよ。すごいいいぃぃぃ！！毎日このトレーラーを見て。。。もうしたいよ！待つこと出来ないよ。。。エウロ人ですけど。。。もし日本にもっと早く発売すれば、日本ヴァションにしようと思います。 お疲れ様です！！！！みんなこの高級ゲームを待ってます。まだ日本のゲーム（物語、絵、方法）自分の魅力あると思います。西ゲームと比べません。日本勝った！！！！！！
Was worried that Sega would force Atlus to ruin Persona, but it's looking amazing. Anyone else absolutely love the new movement system and maps? That all just looked so freaking cool.
Sega isn't terrible when they get their fucking shit together. Look at Phantasy Star, that's a damn excellent series... y'know... just whatever you do.... *don't. look. at. Sanic.*
I'm the same way. I just can't stand his Japanese voice, I actually can't stand the majority of the P4 casts Japanese voices I mean there are a few I like, Yu is ok, Adachi is fine, but that's pretty much it. P3 cast I'm fine with both English and Japanese voices.
+Felipe Melo This game can be delayed an extra 5 years, all I know is that with every trailer, I get hyped. The Persona Series will be known more due to this amazing looking game, and that's just awesome!! P-Studios should like win awards for this game. XD
I am totally on board with this. The Catherine-esque artstyle, the whole like vigilante justice vibe, also the character designs, the dungeon exploration, those fucking new tasty ass jams (really excited for this soundtrack), even the fucking menu's just looks so much nicer and have character. The only thing im even slightly concerned with is that new mascot character, but hey, he might not be as bad as Teddie. Overall, fucking hyped
***** You're actually wrong there but anyone can see the similarity in the 2 engines. Catherine used the "Gamebryo engine" but in was announced that Persona 5 would be made with a new engine.
But Teddie was so funny! "Teddie, how did you get here? Did you use the TVs to travel through space-time? Or another mysterious power?" "Nah, just took the bus"
im pretty damn happy Igor is back.. i love that creepy fucker lol. btw this cant be Stray Sheep... P5 takes place in Tokyo. (it says Shibuya underground City, when MC walks at the beginning of the trailer). Stray Sheep was in America in Catherine..
heyjeySigma Just... lookalike... Also I was being unfair that the "reused" demons have higher polygon count in the trailer than before so Atlus does put some effort in refining the models instead of recycling them and keep milking from them.
It's good that Igor is back but either he won't say much new stuff regarding the story or he will have a different voice. The original voice actor died.
Jojo part 3 was a story where the main villain was sealed away in the past then re-emerged which in turn gave the main character his ability to use a stand. The MC then goes on a journey defeating the the villains minions each of which representing a different arcana of the tarot cards. Jojo part 4 was a story where the main character was seeking out a mysterious killer in his home tow. The killer possessing a method which could either unlock someone own stand abilities or result in there death. Jojo part 5 is a story where the main character starts out as a thief... noticing a pastern here.
dam casul That's a good sign, though. That means this game is getting a shitload of publicity. I don't think the average consumer would go to the Japanese ATLUS page. This game's well on its way to being bigger than P3 and P4, and it's not even out yet!
S. Scotch A useless reply for a useless comment I guess? There's no such thing as a "Catherine" style. The artist's style has been the same for every atlus game he's worked on. The only thing that has changed is the theme. This game has its own unique theme and looks nothing like the theme present in Catherine. I gave you an simple reply cause you seemed to be clueless about what you rudely called useless information.
Theo Truter As much as I would love to see a Catherine Prequel I doubt it will be in the same universe, Catherine was pretty vague with where it took place but considering they had American names it's more than likely it took place in America while Persona 5 will take place in Japan in the same universe as 1-4. I would love to see another game that explores the universe of Catherine though.
I think they are using the same engine so Catherine was kind of a tech demo in that regard. That, and you know same character artist so similar aesthetics aren't that far fetched
Persona 2 and Persona 5 both have red as there theme colors Persona 2 EP was about the locking up of the main villian, P5 is about freeing ourselves from the 7 deadly sins. Persona 1 and 2 both have Philemon who always wears a mask. P5's MC wears a mask. and finally P1,P2, and P5 have you fighting demons. Nyarlanthotep confirmed
bloody 6 maybe. I mean if this is what atlus is doing then it's a really good idea. all the fans of P2 will want to play this and so will the P3/P4 crowd. if not it seems like a missed opportunity for atlus. and that ending almost confirms that he's gonna be in there.
True. I really love P2 plot, characters, system, and dark atmosphere. To be honest, I bought this one from PSN and play again. Sad moment when I feel finish this game, and I'm in the last dungeon. Whole series is very good, but for me P2 has something special.
i haven't played P2. mainly because of time. but anyway you should check out SMT: Strange Journey for NDS it's the true successor to the first two SMT games.
Day 5 of watching the P5 trailer: I have observed no loss in the funk. These jams are consistently good, something few songs can claim. The visuals are also maintaining their levels of appeal, and I am discovering new things every day. For instance, when Morgana was thrown into the billboard at the end, she morphed into a silhouette similar to that of Sakamoto from Nichijou. I doubt this is of any relevance, but it is an interesting anecdote regardless.
Since no one has seemed to comment on this, I just thought to mention the following: The use of colors in this trailer (the red, white, and black) are in reference to the magnum opus of alchemy (i.e., the nigredo, albedo, and rubedo). Following the chaos or massa confusa of the nigredo stage, the alchemist undertakes a purification in albedo, which is literally referred to as ablutio - the washing away of impurities. In this process, the subject is divided into two opposing principles to be later coagulated to form a unity of opposites or coincidentia oppositorum during rubedo. Anyone who had played a persona game is well aware of the theme of encountering the Jungian “shadows” of one’s psyche and overcoming them; thus, in the process, coming into contact with their various “personas” (that is to say, the social faces that an individual presents to the world-"a kind of mask, designed on the one hand to make a definite impression upon others, and on the other to conceal the true nature of the individual”). (Just ask Mr. Edogawa next time you need to go to see the nurse ^_^).
Amazing trailer! But, I'm a bit disappointed that they didn't shed some light on the whole "folding chair with ball and chain" thing and the "You are slave. Want emancipation?" quote
They did in a subtle manner. Compare this trailer to the other one. The first had the protagonist looking downtrodden and bored ride on a train that, despite being full has kinda lifeless and so where the busy streets; the protag is also lifeless to match like being a SLAVE in a dead end job. Now look at this trailer in that context trailer. Look at how vivid everything is while they're in their thief get up. As thieves they are free, liberated, EMANCIPATED and the protag is also act almost like a completely different character during these sequences. And I see that be a theme the game will go into: the slavery of the everyday and freedom of the extraordinary.
From what I found from the Megami Tensai Wiki, the characters(The slaves) had to follow the basic rule set within the boring and mundane society. These characters want to break themselves from the norms of society and obtain freedom for themselves(The emancipation). It is similar to one of Catherine's major themes regarding freedom.This will be the major theme of the game in the same manner Persona 3 & 4 centered around their own themes. I just hope the game will not too depressing compared to Persona 3's overall tone
1:12 - Does the "sleeping in class" mechanic from P3 make a return here? Is it possible to get fatigued after dungeon crawling again? 1:16 - How much are you willing to bet this girl will be voiced by Rie Kugimiya? :P 1:18 - Their hangout spot. Seems to be set in a diner or coffee shop of sorts. It's morning (or is it just sunny weather...? Does the weather system make a comeback as well?) and nobody is attending the counter. Strange... 1:33 - What are "Luxuria Persona" and "Superbia Persona"? 1:34 - WHERE IS THE SOCIAL LINKS MENU??? Also, new menu entries: 'Cooperation' and 'Mission'. Not really clear what those are, yet. 1:35 - Weapon & gun equip slots. Seems like the MC/Potter can only equip one type of weapon (as of now). Mixing some Raidou in there, possibly with elemental bullets maybe? Who knows. And what's a 'protector'? 1:43 - Okay, probably the main dungeon crawling aspect of the game. Looking at the design of the area, it bears some similarities to Yukiko's Castle and therefore doesn't look like it fits in the Japanese setting of the game. Must be located somewhere else, then... 1:45 - Platformer elements. This is new. Seems like the game might take more of an action RPG approach to dungeon crawling... Maybe more puzzles, too? 1:47 - New thing. Seems like stealth gameplay with a cover-to-cover mechanic. This might be a way to avoid enemies or gain the upper hand by starting initiative in battle - just a guess. 1:50 (medical clinic) and 1:56 (military shop) - These are most likely gonna be our item shops for the game. Healing items and stuff in the medical clinic (can't read Japanese - do they still use stuff like Medicine and Snuff Souls?) and weapons and armor in the military shop obviously. At 1:57... What is "Joker"? Hmmm... 1:58 - If you pause at the right time during the zoom-in, you'll see a shot of the MC in prisoner clothes, behind bars, guarded by what appears to be the game's Velvet Room attendants. They appear shorter than the MC (so probably kids, and female given that they're wearing knee-high socks - plus given the fact that Igor seems to have a preference for female assistants excluding Theo), and they're wearing eyepatches for some reason, on opposite eyes. The one on the right has a book tucked in her arm, which is most likely the Compendium. 2:00 - Okay, here on out we see a completely different outfit for the MC, complete with a mask and a cool trenchcoat. Neat. Same goes for your other party members - they also seem to be wearing alternate outfits of their own along with masks. 2:01 - Here's a big one. The enemies aren't Shadows at all. You can see two Sandmen and a Pyro Jack. Will we see the return of the negotiation system of old Persona games?! 2:02 - The party's all-out attack in action. Can't see what the girl's weapon is (it's a one-handed weapon of sorts, and she's swinging it, so it's not a projectile if not a gun), but the guy is clearly wielding a steel pipe. The cat seems to be using a sword that looks way too big for him. Based on the weapon menu from earlier, we can conclude that the MC wields a type of sword (or dagger?) 2:26 onwards - Just a hypothesis, but Persona changes maybe linked to one's outfit and mask when in battle. The red around the MC's eyes and down his cheeks don't look like blood - more like facepaint. He's also engulfed in blue flame, an effect that usually happens when a character in the series summons a Persona. The face that appears shortly after matches that of his Persona, shown in the teaser poster. You can hear the Persona summoning sound effect in the end, which makes this theory even more plausible.
About the last part - maybe DDS style battle system where you can transform into a persona and it changes the mechanics a bit? The castle/royal dungeon might as well be western style mansion or something, not really unusual in Japan AFAIK.
ALL OF THIS IS SPECULATIONS. I KNOW NOTHING. 1:12 Probably not. It's just a stylish way for the teacher to get your attention before asking you a question. 1:16 Absolutely no idea :) 1:18 It's probably just after-school time. And I doubt that weather will play a part. That said, the diner seemed really suspicious and really empty. It didn't look like Junes that was just a great place to hang out and talk shit. I think the diner is the party's main headquarter (like the dorm in P3) where they meet up, do plans, maybe make gadgets and probably enter the shadow-world. 1:33 I think the characters can turn into personas themselves (talked long about it in another comment). So I think those are the names of the cat when it is in its shadow-dorm. 1:34 WHERE IS THE SOCIAL LINK MENUE?!? Maybe it's under party? Maybe co-op means that a friend can help you out in dungeons. The game probably connects you with other players like P4G did. But now you can also battle together or against each other pokemon-style. 1:35 In P3 the main could also only equip a certain type of weapon. So that is nothing new. but lets be honest, how often you use the weapon unless you are defeating an easy enemy and don't want to waste SP? 1:43 It reminded me of the casino in the opening animation where The Main jumped out of the window. Maybe the casino itself is shadow world and they are trying to escape it? 1:45 I think it rather gives the dungeon 3 dimensions to move in. But i doubt it'll have platformed elements. It's just a different type of corridor. 1:47 Love, love LOVE this idea. Getting a backstab was always a pain. If there is a mechanic that helps you do this better, I'm all for it. 1:50 1:56 Yes they are shops. Maybe the "Joker" means that we can, once again, fuse weapons with personas. In this case with a Joker persona? 1:58 I think that scene symbolises that in order for The Main to get his persona powers, he has to break free from the societies norms. Has to get emancipation. And the velvet room helps him do that with the two assistants. 2:00 Nothing to add here 2:01 Hopefully not cause it was a pain in the ass. But we know that shadows are born from people. And lets say Pyro Jack is a persona created by a human. So maybe they are fighting other people's personas in order to emancipate them? 2:02 They have personalised weapons, great. 2:26 This is my theory: Did you see the characters faces in the All-In-Attack 2:07? They looked like their shadow version, only without the yellow eyes. And how the Protagonist's shadow in the end turned into something. I think that the characters accept and become one with their true selves. But because true selves are also personas, they get the ability to turn into personas themselves. That gives them them the crazed look at 2:087and also personas have superhuman abilities, which explains how they are able to jump around. The masked versions are themselves as personas. They are like Teddie (Kuma) in P4, only stronger.
2:02 I paused really carefully and i am almost certain her weapon is a whip 1:33 I also paused here and i recognizes the name as the 7 deadly sins in latin except the for 2 (irritum and cavum) the sin witch matches the cat is luxuria(latin) or (traduced to English) lust. my theory is that the people can transform into personas and the cat, witch is a normal cat gains the ability of persona(not the first animal to gain the ability, remember Kouro from P3) and transforms into one of the sins, maybe each teammate has a sin. when the cat transforms he can speak and such.
1:33 - What are "Luxuria Persona" and "Superbia Persona"? Luxuria and Superbia are deadly sins. Respectively lust and pride. 1:33 I think the characters can turn into personas themselves (talked long about it in another comment). So I think those are the names of the cat when it is in its shadow-dorm. Can they, or are they shadow selves?
"I thought there'd be more characters." Come on guys, they're not gonna show off every playable character in the first actual gameplay trailer..........I hope.
KingTimmahBEE I think the reason why people are skeptical is because this trailer seems to show it'll be a game about heists and robberies and you normally dont have a huge entourage with you if your doing robberies, there's a small elite team. I think that's the reason.
Oriole Orio Well yeah but honestly even in previous games it's not as if all of you went into the dungeon yourselves. You took a party of 3 other people with you and the rest waited outside.
Damn, this is crazier than I thought it would be. -Didn't think the Phantom would end up being the protagonist AND the entire group. I wonder what they end up stealing. -Velvet Room looks to be a prison, and it looks like we got new residents in the form of prison guards. -Are guns back as sub weapons, or is that just the MC's weapon? (I am super down for that being his weapon.) -Will the Cat thief be more annoying than Teddie, or less annoying? Place ya bets folks. -...why is everyone sliding everywhere? Are the streets lined with bacon grease or something? -No seriously, why? -Looks like there gonna save the actual Persona designs for later. -New All Out Attack looks sick
I'm sure the group is gonna be similar to Robin Hood. Stealing and taking away the shackles and chains that makes people tied down. So they still from the oppressors, but that's just IMO
Wait so MC is some sort of master criminal? Then in that case, Naoto can easily be a cameo appearance in this game, with her being a ace detective and all.
I read the novels. She has his own Aigis-like robot (male though) helping her out, plus she has long hair now. And no Kanji romance in it, so don't expect anything.
dobadobadooo They can't be canon simply because the partner's Persona is Tsukuyomi...which is Sho Minazuki's Persona. While some Personas get redesigned, this is never the case for non Wild Card users.
Man, so _(EDIT2 : I really don't know anymore, it might be a _*_prison cell_*_ only or a _*_prison cell inside a train_*_)_ is going to be the Velvet Room huh, plus the assistant are twins. So excited.
alfre2997 Well I actually think it is a prison cell inside a train. In 0:53, it pans down from top of the train to prison cell scene with Igor. Or maybe it is just a prison cell like you said or the train is just a door to the prison cell. Who knows right?
Just noticed, the transition between Protagonist and Anzu at 2:13 in the trailer moves them forward (almost skips forward) on the highway far further than the transition between Anzu and Ryuuji. I think we have basis to assume that the other character(s) will have their parts there. Thoughts?
Yep. The transition between Ryuuji and Anzu doesn't acutally move them forward at all. Or at least, it doesn't move the camera forward anymore than it would have in the time span of the transition had there been no transition. But the transition between Protagonist and Anzu leap them forward real far. I actually counted the light posts to get a sense of distance it jumped the camera forward approx. 5-7 lightposts in distance. This is also roughly the distance each character gets for their little "dance"/spotlight moment (each character stays in focus for a distance of about 3-4 lightposts. Just enough to fit in one, maybe 2 more characters. This would bring the total character count to 6. Taking out Morgana (the cat), that's 5 human characters. Most likely five high school age human characters, i.e., the five chairs in the first teaser photo? Assuming the seven deadly sins theme, and the pairing of Morgana with "luxuria" (and the truth in this pairing is amplified by her name, Morgana, for Morgan La Fey). We can assume the main characters are all attributed to one of these 7. Leaving 1 more. Either this 1 is also a MC, meaning one is so secret (more secret than the other two) that he is not being teased (and was left out of the full version of that highway "spotlight" animation - which we can assume this here was an edited version of). Or that final sin is attributed to a main bad guy.
Nnenna Monet Regarding Party Members. Some users at NeoGaf and Reddit have pointed out that around 01:31 and 01:32 you can see various words. One of these pop out with the cat to describe him as "Luxuria Persona", which means Lust Persona. The words are related the seven deadly sins theme. But what appears are not 7 words, but instead, 9. Gula, Luxuria, Invidia, Ira, Superbia, Acedia, Avaratia, Irritum and Cavum.. Respectively: Gluttonny, Lust, Envy,Wrath, Pride, Sloth, Greed, Vanity and Hollow. If the words represent the characters, then it is plausible to think that we're gonna have a party consisting of 9 members. Or at least, 9 really important characters. It has been a topic of debate if the protagonist fits the Pride, Vanity or Hollow Persona more.
It's not the only time that happened in the trailer: - 0:40 The transition between Anzu and unknown racoon-mask-guy feels weird. Has something been chopped out there? - 1:22 No transition at all between MC and Ryuuji. There IS something missing there. On top of that, his air-guitar-solo sounds off to me. Maybe because something is missing? I can't find more things to add. It's quite obvious, that the opening has been butchered for this trailer, since the opening of previous persona games NEVER featured in-game-gameplay scenes.
@@cliint7105 or because LeBlanc would have customers during the day so that scene would've had to have taken place at night which is not when you're allowed to do the palaces in the final game.
OMG, so many things to say! velvet twins?! Theo is a big bro now! Igor is back! 2:00 THEY ARE NOT FIGHTING SHADOWS! and the menus are sooooo stylish.....
Holy shit, you're right they are fighting sandmans and pyro jack O.o But then if they are not fighting shadows what the hell are those knights in 1:43?
OMG....... SOOOOOOO COOOOOLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can not wait to play this game. 2015: The year JRPGS make their comeback! Xenoblade, FF 15 and Persona 5.... I'm about to faint...
PE Nintendo ME TOOOO!!!! Console RPGs are indeed making a comeback ( they were fully alive last gen on the handheld scene. MId tier RPGs all kinda died last gen when the big budget ones that werent first party funded kinda flopped)
Funny you mention that. I seem to have spotted something not many have noticed, at 0:41 we see potter/protagonist, at 0:44 we see anzu and at 0:51 we see ryuji, those are te three human party members confirmed so far BUT in between anzu and ryuji we see another human wearing what seems to be a sweater, sweatpants, boots and a fox mask and tail...
So about that mystery as to why our heroes are fighting other personas (or maybe demons?), instead of shadows. If you pause at 1:44, you can tell that the soldiers Phantom is passing are indeed shadows; they have the signature masks. So at the very least, we'll be fighting both shadows and personas/demons for whatever reason.

This trailer made me realise how bland and uninteresting the visual design is in most modern games. This easily beats the competition in that regard.
You know... i had the same felling :p Maybe it's result of Japanese games decline since end of PS2
Yeah the only thing that could stand up to it was persona 4 Golden and that paled in comparison.
It’s time to go old school.
which part that made it bland and uninteresting?
Dzulfiqar F.r he didn’t say that persona 5’s trailer looked bland and uninteresting, it was other modern games that did. Just in case that you read it wrong

In fact, there are so much English comments, one of the Japanese comments said:
"Japanese? Someone? Anyone? T_T"

That's so funny. It just proves how big this series is everywhere

Main character completely shatters my earlier expectations about him.He has a WILD SIDE AND THIS GAME LOOKS AMAZING

Ive played both 3 and 4. 3 on the psp (p3p i think) and p4 emulated. I dropped persona 3 4 hours or so in. The gameplay was really stale. And persona 4 simply didn't "click". Maybe the 1+ hour intro was what killed it for me. Oh, and the abysmal dungeon designs. My point, persona 5 seems to have fixed all those "issues" that i didn't like about the previous 2 games.

Fast paced stealth sections
The dungeon design looks 50 times better already

Ong Yong Qin Wow,ur a funny guy :) i want to see you in a party dude :)
Dare I say those are the slickest and most downright GORGEOUS menus I've ever laid my eyes upon?
この動画は再生回数がすごいな。270万回を突破しているし。やっぱり外国人のファンの方も多いのだろうか。まあこの神PVは何回も見たくなるような魅力がたくさんあるからだろうね。私もほぼ毎日見ているような気がするしねw
sorry i dont speak weeb
@@Mr.OwO2873 Said someone watched a weebish titled youtube video. Also, this is Atlus' japanese account, so I don't know, expect some weeb language?
Or just embrace it. Like some of us.
SMAL BOI it’s literally just japanese you freak
wait what did the dude say tho
@@Mr.OwO2873 It’s literally Japanese my guy.
that... is... AWSOME!!! So cool I can not wait! Good job!! 信じられないよ。すごいいいぃぃぃ！！毎日このトレーラーを見て。。。もうしたいよ！待つこと出来ないよ。。。エウロ人ですけど。。。もし日本にもっと早く発売すれば、日本ヴァションにしようと思います。
お疲れ様です！！！！みんなこの高級ゲームを待ってます。まだ日本のゲーム（物語、絵、方法）自分の魅力あると思います。西ゲームと比べません。日本勝った！！！！！！

今更このコメント見つけて嬉しくなりました。
I am Japanese. Are you thank you?

Was worried that Sega would force Atlus to ruin Persona, but it's looking amazing. Anyone else absolutely love the new movement system and maps? That all just looked so freaking cool.
the menu is pretty slick too
Owe yeah, how he was changing positions in the chair. That was an awesome feature.
Sega isn't terrible when they get their fucking shit together.
Look at Phantasy Star, that's a damn excellent series... y'know... just whatever you do.... *don't. look. at. Sanic.*
its the sega parent company that bought atlus so the game publisher side of sega has nothing to do with atlus so its fine
Why'd you think that? They can't afford to ruin Persona, aside from Sonic Atlus is their sole asset left.
Hoping that cat mascot thing will be more bearable than Teddie
Christ this, I cannpt STAND Teddies voice these days.
I can tolerate his english voice...but his japanese voice ughhhh
Sad thing is that I actually really like his seiyu outside of this.
I'm the same way. I just can't stand his Japanese voice, I actually can't stand the majority of the P4 casts Japanese voices I mean there are a few I like, Yu is ok, Adachi is fine, but that's pretty much it. P3 cast I'm fine with both English and Japanese voices.
I love teddie
Smiles1222 Teddie and Rise are the reasons why, even if I could, I'd still play the game in english. I'm fine with everyone else.
このPV四年前なのか...
時が過ぎるのは早いなぁ
6 months later and dat music is still drawing me back. Really glad Meguro is going back to the jazzy sounds he had in SMT3.
Am I the only one who's still been watching the trailer since it's been posted?
nope.
Good.
no
I need to make it more of a ritual to watch it every day. Trust me, you're not the only one on this hype train.
Yes. Yes, out of the 7 billion people in the world, you are the only one who keeps coming back to watch this.
当時のペルソナファンはワクワクしたんだろうなぁ5の続編もっと欲しいけど
6の発表もちょっと楽しみ
One of the few instances of a game actually delivering on the hype from the trailer.
God, this was easily the most hype-inducing trailer for a game I've experienced in my lifetime.
Yakuza 5
Metal Gear Solid 5
Persona 5
It's gonna be a GOOD year.
Can't wait for the year all the games ending in 6 come out
you forgot Disgaea 5 but yeah i agree
Noctis Altura
And Street Fighter 5
and Final Fantasy 15
lots of fives
+Mark Nightgun And the Japanese version of Yakuza 0.
DarkMatterZero
Do you mean Ultimate Mega Super Street Fighter 5?
One can hardly imagine that only 7 years later Persona Fans finally played Persona.
2:06この頃の総攻撃、ジョーカーの顔の影が濃い感じ今より悪人面で好き
6 years later this still impressed me
I CAN'T WAIT FOR PERSONA 5 ARENA
And Persona 5 Stealing All Night
MrLineGamez And Persona Kart
In the words of Akihiko
"I've been waiting for this!"
And the Persona 4 and 5 crossover game: Persona T.
and the persona edition cherrios "THE TASTE YOU CAN S.E.E.S"
1 whole year after this trailer and stil no release date
Hello darkness my old friend
+Felipe Melo I've come to talk with you again...
+Felipe Melo This game can be delayed an extra 5 years, all I know is that with every trailer, I get hyped. The Persona Series will be known more due to this amazing looking game, and that's just awesome!! P-Studios should like win awards for this game. XD
Lawrence Maza maaaaan....you're supposed to follow up on the lyrics :(
+Felipe Melo You're about to get it May 5th.
comes out september 15th
まだ遊べるゲーム
完全版記念に来た
Despite already owning the game and playing it, this trailer is still my favorite and is probably the best one I have seen for any sort of media.
No words can truly express the amount of hype placed in the hearts of thousands by this single video.
...Wow.
For those complaining that P3 to P4 didn't have much new to add to the series, P5 definitely mixes it up a bit.
It's only the first PV, so their more to come.
Malevolent Entity
me too - and i already feel relieved by the new gameplay and stylistic elements in this trailer.
I am totally on board with this. The Catherine-esque artstyle, the whole like vigilante justice vibe, also the character designs, the dungeon exploration, those fucking new tasty ass jams (really excited for this soundtrack), even the fucking menu's just looks so much nicer and have character. The only thing im even slightly concerned with is that new mascot character, but hey, he might not be as bad as Teddie. Overall, fucking hyped
***** Either way, I'm excited
you mean she, I think. The cat's name is Morgana.
***** You're actually wrong there but anyone can see the similarity in the 2 engines.
Catherine used the "Gamebryo engine" but in was announced that Persona 5 would be made with a new engine.
But Teddie was so funny!
"Teddie, how did you get here? Did you use the TVs to travel through space-time? Or another mysterious power?"
"Nah, just took the bus"
Funchal99 That's his only line that i liked. Other than that he just pissed me off
定期的に見に来てしまう…
やっぱペルソナを超える神ゲーはない。
てかVita版出して欲しい！！！！！！
アトラスさんほんとお願いします😭
容量的に難しそうですね…
Mascot character: Checked.
All-Out Attack: Checked!
Stray Sheep: Checked!
Lisa/Ginko-lookalike-lover-arcana: Checked!
Reused-Kazuma-demon-designs: Checked!
Igor: Checked!
im pretty damn happy Igor is back.. i love that creepy fucker lol.
btw this cant be Stray Sheep... P5 takes place in Tokyo. (it says Shibuya underground City, when MC walks at the beginning of the trailer).
Stray Sheep was in America in Catherine..
heyjeySigma Just... lookalike... Also I was being unfair that the "reused" demons have higher polygon count in the trailer than before so Atlus does put some effort in refining the models instead of recycling them and keep milking from them.
Money in the wallet: cheked
It's good that Igor is back but either he won't say much new stuff regarding the story or he will have a different voice. The original voice actor died.
sdfghj123456
I'm quite sure they will hire another VA for him instead of reusing the old voice clips from P3/4
ありがとうアトラス😊
真・女神転生万歳ペルソナ万歳
アトラスと言ったら、ペルソナ5という快挙を成し遂げたそのくらい凄い事だよ。
待ってました！
もう何度もPV見ちゃってるw
発売楽しみにしてますー
アトラスさん頑張ってください！！
This trailer never gets old.
DID YOU SEE THAT SHINJI!?!??!?
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!
It's that time where it's close enough to be real, but far enough away for me to be losing my shit in anticipation.
Jojo part 3 was a story where the main villain was sealed away in the past then re-emerged which in turn gave the main character his ability to use a stand. The MC then goes on a journey defeating the the villains minions each of which representing a different arcana of the tarot cards.
Jojo part 4 was a story where the main character was seeking out a mysterious killer in his home tow. The killer possessing a method which could either unlock someone own stand abilities or result in there death.
Jojo part 5 is a story where the main character starts out as a thief... noticing a pastern here.
DIO!!!!!!
Holy shit. Thank you Dio-sama for opening my eyes.
Wow, didn't know that you were a Persona fan!
***** 3 out of 5, we have you outnumbered now =D
Dio Brando
2:11 is the biggest homage to you Dio-sama. ZA WARUDO!
Only 700,000 away from 3 Million ... Will the Hype for P5 achieve this before the end of February.
nu
XxDeadlyViperxX There's 700,000 views of this video on IGN's channel.Damn IGN stole the views!
dam casul That's a good sign, though. That means this game is getting a shitload of publicity. I don't think the average consumer would go to the Japanese ATLUS page.
This game's well on its way to being bigger than P3 and P4, and it's not even out yet!
DeadlyViper oh man too bad it took two years
Probably my favourite trailer of all time. I watched this so many times when it came out.
Doesn't the fifth protagonist look a lot like Vincent when he's not wearing his glasses. :)
They went with Catherine's style. I like it.
S. Scotch Technically it's always been that style since it's all done by the same artist *v* All the persona games + Catherine
NoviceartistJC Wow. Thanks for the (useless) info.
is it only 4 playable characters. persona 4 have 7.
S. Scotch A useless reply for a useless comment I guess? There's no such thing as a "Catherine" style. The artist's style has been the same for every atlus game he's worked on. The only thing that has changed is the theme. This game has its own unique theme and looks nothing like the theme present in Catherine.
I gave you an simple reply cause you seemed to be clueless about what you rudely called useless information.
すげーパワーアップしてるよ
今までの改善して欲しかったとこも、新しい機種になって改善されててうれしいです
Why is the characters and area giving off a Catherine vibe. Could this be a prequel or set in the sane universe? OH GOD I CAN'T CONTAIN THAT IDEA
Probably because it's made by the same team, and they used Catherine as a test ground.
Smiles1222 i just hope its a prequel, or at least in the same universe
Theo Truter As much as I would love to see a Catherine Prequel I doubt it will be in the same universe, Catherine was pretty vague with where it took place but considering they had American names it's more than likely it took place in America while Persona 5 will take place in Japan in the same universe as 1-4. I would love to see another game that explores the universe of Catherine though.
Smiles1222 true good point on that. I guess Catherine was just a teaser just tech demo i guess. A good one though
I think they are using the same engine so Catherine was kind of a tech demo in that regard. That, and you know same character artist so similar aesthetics aren't that far fetched
Persona: Tuxedo Mask x JoJo poses everywhere. Yes. So much yes.
Also, pigtails and cats hnnnngnggggg
***** AND VELVET ROOM TWINS
***** IKR!! Who doesn't love cute pigtail's, neko ninjas and effin twins.
Persona 2 and Persona 5 both have red as there theme colors
Persona 2 EP was about the locking up of the main villian, P5 is about freeing ourselves from the 7 deadly sins.
Persona 1 and 2 both have Philemon who always wears a mask. P5's MC wears a mask.
and finally
P1,P2, and P5 have you fighting demons.
Nyarlanthotep confirmed
So... Maybe we should try to spread some rumors?
bloody 6 maybe. I mean if this is what atlus is doing then it's a really good idea. all the fans of P2 will want to play this and so will the P3/P4 crowd. if not it seems like a missed opportunity for atlus. and that ending almost confirms that he's gonna be in there.
True. I really love P2 plot, characters, system, and dark atmosphere. To be honest, I bought this one from PSN and play again. Sad moment when I feel finish this game, and I'm in the last dungeon. Whole series is very good, but for me P2 has something special.
i haven't played P2. mainly because of time. but anyway you should check out SMT: Strange Journey for NDS it's the true successor to the first two SMT games.
Let's go for 3 million now the Hype for P5 is intense.
DeadlyViper How's the game
3 years later:
Queen is Best Girl❤️
Day 5 of watching the P5 trailer:
I have observed no loss in the funk. These jams are consistently good, something few songs can claim. The visuals are also maintaining their levels of appeal, and I am discovering new things every day. For instance, when Morgana was thrown into the billboard at the end, she morphed into a silhouette similar to that of Sakamoto from Nichijou. I doubt this is of any relevance, but it is an interesting anecdote regardless.
PERSONA 5: THE HEIST CONFIRMED!
Hoxton would be damned.
The Detective: Minato Breakout
Pensare che uscirà questo inverno quando Arunaru finirà di tradurre Rance VI
Sly Cooperona 5
don't act dumb
Since no one has seemed to comment on this, I just thought to mention the following: The use of colors in this trailer (the red, white, and black) are in reference to the magnum opus of alchemy (i.e., the nigredo, albedo, and rubedo). Following the chaos or massa confusa of the nigredo stage, the alchemist undertakes a purification in albedo, which is literally referred to as ablutio - the washing away of impurities. In this process, the subject is divided into two opposing principles to be later coagulated to form a unity of opposites or coincidentia oppositorum during rubedo. Anyone who had played a persona game is well aware of the theme of encountering the Jungian “shadows” of one’s psyche and overcoming them; thus, in the process, coming into contact with their various “personas” (that is to say, the social faces that an individual presents to the world-"a kind of mask, designed on the one hand to make a definite impression upon others, and on the other to conceal the true nature of the individual”). (Just ask Mr. Edogawa next time you need to go to see the nurse ^_^).
As someone who grew up with Final Fantasy and never played a Persona game in his life, I'm still really excited for this.
its fine, no experience necessary cause they are self contained
ペルソナシリーズ25周年おめでとうございます🎉
ペルソナ6が発表されるのを楽しみにしています！
そしてペルソナ5を越えられるのか…！？
Still watching the Persona 5 trailer and 3 million is coming upon us. HYPE
3 Million Hype! The views have slowed down considerably, but I think we'll get there.
Amazing trailer! But, I'm a bit disappointed that they didn't shed some light on the whole "folding chair with ball and chain" thing and the "You are slave. Want emancipation?" quote
I think in past interviews they shed some light on it. The director has really mentioned the themes of this game several times in interviews.
They did in a subtle manner. Compare this trailer to the other one.
The first had the protagonist looking downtrodden and bored ride on a train that, despite being full has kinda lifeless and so where the busy streets; the protag is also lifeless to match like being a SLAVE in a dead end job. Now look at this trailer in that context trailer. Look at how vivid everything is while they're in their thief get up. As thieves they are free, liberated, EMANCIPATED and the protag is also act almost like a completely different character during these sequences.
And I see that be a theme the game will go into: the slavery of the everyday and freedom of the extraordinary.
From what I found from the Megami Tensai Wiki, the characters(The slaves) had to follow the basic rule set within the boring and mundane society. These characters want to break themselves from the norms of society and obtain freedom for themselves(The emancipation). It is similar to one of Catherine's major themes regarding freedom.This will be the major theme of the game in the same manner Persona 3 & 4 centered around their own themes. I just hope the game will not too depressing compared to Persona 3's overall tone
They're thieves, I think that gives a pretty big hint to those topics
that's what the game is for, they're not gonna answer those questions, this isn't a movie trailer where it tells you the entire plot in its trailer XD
If this doesn't release in 2015 in Europe, I'll be a very sad bear. This year has the potential to be the best for gaming in an extremely long time.
1:12 - Does the "sleeping in class" mechanic from P3 make a return here? Is it possible to get fatigued after dungeon crawling again?
1:16 - How much are you willing to bet this girl will be voiced by Rie Kugimiya? :P
1:18 - Their hangout spot. Seems to be set in a diner or coffee shop of sorts. It's morning (or is it just sunny weather...? Does the weather system make a comeback as well?) and nobody is attending the counter. Strange...
1:33 - What are "Luxuria Persona" and "Superbia Persona"?
1:34 - WHERE IS THE SOCIAL LINKS MENU??? Also, new menu entries: 'Cooperation' and 'Mission'. Not really clear what those are, yet.
1:35 - Weapon & gun equip slots. Seems like the MC/Potter can only equip one type of weapon (as of now). Mixing some Raidou in there, possibly with elemental bullets maybe? Who knows. And what's a 'protector'?
1:43 - Okay, probably the main dungeon crawling aspect of the game. Looking at the design of the area, it bears some similarities to Yukiko's Castle and therefore doesn't look like it fits in the Japanese setting of the game. Must be located somewhere else, then...
1:45 - Platformer elements. This is new. Seems like the game might take more of an action RPG approach to dungeon crawling... Maybe more puzzles, too?
1:47 - New thing. Seems like stealth gameplay with a cover-to-cover mechanic. This might be a way to avoid enemies or gain the upper hand by starting initiative in battle - just a guess.
1:50 (medical clinic) and 1:56 (military shop) - These are most likely gonna be our item shops for the game. Healing items and stuff in the medical clinic (can't read Japanese - do they still use stuff like Medicine and Snuff Souls?) and weapons and armor in the military shop obviously. At 1:57... What is "Joker"? Hmmm...
1:58 - If you pause at the right time during the zoom-in, you'll see a shot of the MC in prisoner clothes, behind bars, guarded by what appears to be the game's Velvet Room attendants. They appear shorter than the MC (so probably kids, and female given that they're wearing knee-high socks - plus given the fact that Igor seems to have a preference for female assistants excluding Theo), and they're wearing eyepatches for some reason, on opposite eyes. The one on the right has a book tucked in her arm, which is most likely the Compendium.
2:00 - Okay, here on out we see a completely different outfit for the MC, complete with a mask and a cool trenchcoat. Neat. Same goes for your other party members - they also seem to be wearing alternate outfits of their own along with masks.
2:01 - Here's a big one. The enemies aren't Shadows at all. You can see two Sandmen and a Pyro Jack. Will we see the return of the negotiation system of old Persona games?!
2:02 - The party's all-out attack in action. Can't see what the girl's weapon is (it's a one-handed weapon of sorts, and she's swinging it, so it's not a projectile if not a gun), but the guy is clearly wielding a steel pipe. The cat seems to be using a sword that looks way too big for him. Based on the weapon menu from earlier, we can conclude that the MC wields a type of sword (or dagger?)
2:26 onwards - Just a hypothesis, but Persona changes maybe linked to one's outfit and mask when in battle. The red around the MC's eyes and down his cheeks don't look like blood - more like facepaint. He's also engulfed in blue flame, an effect that usually happens when a character in the series summons a Persona. The face that appears shortly after matches that of his Persona, shown in the teaser poster. You can hear the Persona summoning sound effect in the end, which makes this theory even more plausible.
About the last part - maybe DDS style battle system where you can transform into a persona and it changes the mechanics a bit?
The castle/royal dungeon might as well be western style mansion or something, not really unusual in Japan AFAIK.
ALL OF THIS IS SPECULATIONS. I KNOW NOTHING.
1:12 Probably not. It's just a stylish way for the teacher to get your attention before asking you a question.
1:16 Absolutely no idea :)
1:18 It's probably just after-school time. And I doubt that weather will play a part. That said, the diner seemed really suspicious and really empty. It didn't look like Junes that was just a great place to hang out and talk shit. I think the diner is the party's main headquarter (like the dorm in P3) where they meet up, do plans, maybe make gadgets and probably enter the shadow-world.
1:33 I think the characters can turn into personas themselves (talked long about it in another comment). So I think those are the names of the cat when it is in its shadow-dorm.
1:34 WHERE IS THE SOCIAL LINK MENUE?!? Maybe it's under party? Maybe co-op means that a friend can help you out in dungeons. The game probably connects you with other players like P4G did. But now you can also battle together or against each other pokemon-style.
1:35 In P3 the main could also only equip a certain type of weapon. So that is nothing new. but lets be honest, how often you use the weapon unless you are defeating an easy enemy and don't want to waste SP?
1:43 It reminded me of the casino in the opening animation where The Main jumped out of the window. Maybe the casino itself is shadow world and they are trying to escape it?
1:45 I think it rather gives the dungeon 3 dimensions to move in. But i doubt it'll have platformed elements. It's just a different type of corridor.
1:47 Love, love LOVE this idea. Getting a backstab was always a pain. If there is a mechanic that helps you do this better, I'm all for it.
1:50 1:56 Yes they are shops. Maybe the "Joker" means that we can, once again, fuse weapons with personas. In this case with a Joker persona?
1:58 I think that scene symbolises that in order for The Main to get his persona powers, he has to break free from the societies norms. Has to get emancipation. And the velvet room helps him do that with the two assistants.
2:00 Nothing to add here
2:01 Hopefully not cause it was a pain in the ass. But we know that shadows are born from people. And lets say Pyro Jack is a persona created by a human. So maybe they are fighting other people's personas in order to emancipate them?
2:02 They have personalised weapons, great.
2:26 This is my theory:
Did you see the characters faces in the All-In-Attack 2:07? They looked like their shadow version, only without the yellow eyes. And how the Protagonist's shadow in the end turned into something.
I think that the characters accept and become one with their true selves. But because true selves are also personas, they get the ability to turn into personas themselves. That gives them them the crazed look at 2:087and also personas have superhuman abilities, which explains how they are able to jump around. The masked versions are themselves as personas. They are like Teddie (Kuma) in P4, only stronger.
1:16 God please no. i am already afraid of her tsundere-esque personality, and now this...
1:57 Dunno, maybe a nod to P2
2:02 I paused really carefully and i am almost certain her weapon is a whip
1:33 I also paused here and i recognizes the name as the 7 deadly sins in latin except the for 2 (irritum and cavum) the sin witch matches the cat is luxuria(latin) or (traduced to English) lust. my theory is that the people can transform into personas and the cat, witch is a normal cat gains the ability of persona(not the first animal to gain the ability, remember Kouro from P3) and transforms into one of the sins, maybe each teammate has a sin. when the cat transforms he can speak and such.
1:33 - What are "Luxuria Persona" and "Superbia Persona"?
Luxuria and Superbia are deadly sins. Respectively lust and pride.
1:33 I think the characters can turn into personas themselves (talked long about it in another comment). So I think those are the names of the cat when it is in its shadow-dorm.
Can they, or are they shadow selves?
1:19 この頃はまだ現実世界のモナが異世界の方になってるんだ
Man if the cat started saying puns it'd be a cat-astrophe.
Watch him speak in the manliest voice you've ever heard.
I think I'd go into a catatonia.
Trung Pham Bear-y interesting...
PURRSONA
Some may go CATatonic from all these PURRfect puns.
It's the middle of fucking April, and I'm still watching this...
"I thought there'd be more characters." Come on guys, they're not gonna show off every playable character in the first actual gameplay trailer..........I hope.
very cool !!
Weeeeell... there WERE only 5 chairs in the first teaser... so... you know... don't get your hopes up too much.
KingTimmahBEE
I think the reason why people are skeptical is because this trailer seems to show it'll be a game about heists and robberies and you normally dont have a huge entourage with you if your doing robberies, there's a small elite team. I think that's the reason.
Oriole Orio Well yeah but honestly even in previous games it's not as if all of you went into the dungeon yourselves. You took a party of 3 other people with you and the rest waited outside.
Omphalite
True
Damn, this is crazier than I thought it would be.
-Didn't think the Phantom would end up being the protagonist AND the entire group. I wonder what they end up stealing.
-Velvet Room looks to be a prison, and it looks like we got new residents in the form of prison guards.
-Are guns back as sub weapons, or is that just the MC's weapon? (I am super down for that being his weapon.)
-Will the Cat thief be more annoying than Teddie, or less annoying? Place ya bets folks.
-...why is everyone sliding everywhere? Are the streets lined with bacon grease or something?
-No seriously, why?
-Looks like there gonna save the actual Persona designs for later.
-New All Out Attack looks sick
I'm sure the group is gonna be similar to Robin Hood. Stealing and taking away the shackles and chains that makes people tied down. So they still from the oppressors, but that's just IMO
They are sliding because ashphalt is ice. They are striking poses that ice-skaters often do.
Kingdom of the Saints Hmm, I wonder if ice skating's gonna be a Social Link thing, or some kinda event you can do.
Piers Nivans
Cooperation sounds more like a fancy term for a combo attack or similar to me in this context.
TheOneAmani
I wouldn't read too much (or anything at all other than maybe attitude, really) into the red parts of the trailer.
Wait so MC is some sort of master criminal? Then in that case, Naoto can easily be a cameo appearance in this game, with her being a ace detective and all.
I read the novels. She has his own Aigis-like robot (male though) helping her out, plus she has long hair now. And no Kanji romance in it, so don't expect anything.
huleyn135 Atlus stated the novels weren't canon.
Le Dom Thank fucking god, those novels were garbage.
dobadobadooo They can't be canon simply because the partner's Persona is Tsukuyomi...which is Sho Minazuki's Persona. While some Personas get redesigned, this is never the case for non Wild Card users.
Le Dom Ah thank god they were atrocious.
なつかしー！メタファーどんな感じか調べてたら久しぶりに辿り着いた
またやろうかな❤全部楽しかったけどやっぱ音楽が素晴らしい👍
I remember watching this back then getting hyped, and i had never played a Persona/Atlus game. And now i love their games
Man, so _(EDIT2 : I really don't know anymore, it might be a _*_prison cell_*_ only or a _*_prison cell inside a train_*_)_ is going to be the Velvet Room huh, plus the assistant are twins. So excited.
I think the Velvet Room is a prison cell because at 1:58 you can see him in jail with the twins of the Velvet Room and the backgroud is kinda blue.
alfre2997 Well I actually think it is a prison cell inside a train. In 0:53, it pans down from top of the train to prison cell scene with Igor. Or maybe it is just a prison cell like you said or the train is just a door to the prison cell. Who knows right?
Why is it that almost every protagonist that Atlus makes, always have a Train opening? Almost every Protagonist.
Lostxsoul8o8 You havent played many SMT games i take it, that and the first two persona games dont start with a train. So theres that.
RinKagamineX3
I've played a couple.... also true, persona 1 started in class, and persona 2 started in the parking lot for bikes.
Never thought I'd see the day when a Persona trailer was on the "most popular" list.
I come back here every once in a while to get nostalgia from when this came out.
Just noticed, the transition between Protagonist and Anzu at 2:13 in the trailer moves them forward (almost skips forward) on the highway far further than the transition between Anzu and Ryuuji.
I think we have basis to assume that the other character(s) will have their parts there.
Thoughts?
I thought the same thing. It feels like they have cut the rest of it.
Yep. The transition between Ryuuji and Anzu doesn't acutally move them forward at all. Or at least, it doesn't move the camera forward anymore than it would have in the time span of the transition had there been no transition.
But the transition between Protagonist and Anzu leap them forward real far.
I actually counted the light posts to get a sense of distance it jumped the camera forward approx. 5-7 lightposts in distance.
This is also roughly the distance each character gets for their little "dance"/spotlight moment (each character stays in focus for a distance of about 3-4 lightposts. Just enough to fit in one, maybe 2 more characters.
This would bring the total character count to 6.
Taking out Morgana (the cat), that's 5 human characters. Most likely five high school age human characters, i.e., the five chairs in the first teaser photo?
Assuming the seven deadly sins theme, and the pairing of Morgana with "luxuria" (and the truth in this pairing is amplified by her name, Morgana, for Morgan La Fey). We can assume the main characters are all attributed to one of these 7.
Leaving 1 more. Either this 1 is also a MC, meaning one is so secret (more secret than the other two) that he is not being teased (and was left out of the full version of that highway "spotlight" animation - which we can assume this here was an edited version of).
Or that final sin is attributed to a main bad guy.
Nnenna Monet Regarding Party Members. Some users at NeoGaf and Reddit have pointed out that around 01:31 and 01:32 you can see various words. One of these pop out with the cat to describe him as "Luxuria Persona", which means Lust Persona. The words are related the seven deadly sins theme. But what appears are not 7 words, but instead, 9.
Gula, Luxuria, Invidia, Ira, Superbia, Acedia, Avaratia, Irritum and Cavum..
Respectively:
Gluttonny, Lust, Envy,Wrath, Pride, Sloth, Greed, Vanity and Hollow.
If the words represent the characters, then it is plausible to think that we're gonna have a party consisting of 9 members. Or at least, 9 really important characters. It has been a topic of debate if the protagonist fits the Pride, Vanity or Hollow Persona more.
***** I'd assume it'd be Hollow, as it brings to mind his Wild Card nature.
It's not the only time that happened in the trailer:
- 0:40 The transition between Anzu and unknown racoon-mask-guy feels weird. Has something been chopped out
there?
- 1:22 No transition at all between MC and Ryuuji. There IS something missing there. On top of that, his air-guitar-solo
sounds off to me. Maybe because something is missing?
I can't find more things to add. It's quite obvious, that the opening has been butchered for this trailer, since the opening of previous persona games NEVER featured in-game-gameplay scenes.
Almost May, still watching. Can't stop the hype train
1 million views in just one day? The hype is real for both old & new Persona fans, SMT fans included too. So international release then, Atlus?
Due to the delay to 2015 in Japan. Atlus USA confirmed the NA version will release close to the JP release.
Atlus Japan actually forced NicoVideo to remove this trailer from their website so most viewers have to watch it here for monetization.
It better be turn based. That way I won't have to take a look at it.
113mac113 They said that? Link?
ifurkend
That's cool with me, more money for Atlus means more money put into the game, the ads and related merchandise.
1:16 never showed up in the full game sadly
I wonder why Morgana was in his Metaverse form there when he is shown as a normal cat elsewhere?
Fox McFog that’s probably why they scrapped it
@@cliint7105 or because LeBlanc would have customers during the day so that scene would've had to have taken place at night which is not when you're allowed to do the palaces in the final game.
2:06 same with jokers portrait
They changed it
The things was that’s the only part he was in the cutscene he turned back into the cat
He kind of looks like Vincent in a few shots from Catherine.
and looks like a male version of naoto.
Luis Diaz
That would be Minato
The Bright Cube Except you know, not dead and from a terrible game.

P3 wasn't that bad.....
OK P3 Gameplay was shit, but P3P fixed that, but FeMC is better.
fireguardiancoty P3 was better than P4 :^)
Over a year ago and still can't believe how crazy this trailer is
OMG, so many things to say! velvet twins?! Theo is a big bro now! Igor is back! 2:00 THEY ARE NOT FIGHTING SHADOWS! and the menus are sooooo stylish.....
Holy shit, you're right they are fighting sandmans and pyro jack O.o
But then if they are not fighting shadows what the hell are those knights in 1:43?
At the two minute mark, they're not fighting shadows! They're fighting a persona, and It's the sandman persona!
Where's Theo?!
***** I think they turn into their personas. Watch the end and it looks like that guy is turning into a persona.
The player most likely has to fight them to gain control of the persona but I'm just guessing lol still this game looks freaking amazing!
かっこ良すぎ！何回も見ちゃいますね
Persona 5 confirmed to be No More Heroes 3
...
...
Holy Shit, you're right.
goddamn u man lol nowi wanna replay no more heroes games... (and my disc is broken.. ung)
AND IT'S GLORIOUS.
Looks more like Jet Set Radio.
I knew this looked (and sounded) familiar...
I predict that this will be one of my favorite games ever.
Were you right?
OMG....... SOOOOOOO COOOOOLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can not wait to play this game. 2015: The year JRPGS make their comeback! Xenoblade, FF 15 and Persona 5.... I'm about to faint...
PE Nintendo ME TOOOO!!!!
Console RPGs are indeed making a comeback ( they were fully alive last gen on the handheld scene. MId tier RPGs all kinda died last gen when the big budget ones that werent first party funded kinda flopped)
もう8年前？まじかよ
マジで神ゲーだった
All i have to say is I hope that those 4 characters aren't the only ones in your party. I hope there's more people that join the group.
Probably just showing the first ones you get to avoid spoilers like how most Xenoblade Chronicles marketing only shows Shulk, Reyn, and Sharla.
they always do this they wont spoil everything
Funny you mention that. I seem to have spotted something not many have noticed, at 0:41 we see potter/protagonist, at 0:44 we see anzu and at 0:51 we see ryuji, those are te three human party members confirmed so far BUT in between anzu and ryuji we see another human wearing what seems to be a sweater, sweatpants, boots and a fox mask and tail...
Fifth party member perhaps?
Pretty much and looks female
No words can describe my love for this trailer
I like how they went with Catherines style. I love it
Yeah, I love it so much.
So about that mystery as to why our heroes are fighting other personas (or maybe demons?), instead of shadows.
If you pause at 1:44, you can tell that the soldiers Phantom is passing are indeed shadows; they have the signature masks. So at the very least, we'll be fighting both shadows and personas/demons for whatever reason.
