For all those curious, Persona 5 WILL be the next For Beginners! Expect it to be a very long video but Im so excited to make it. In the mean time I hope you guys enjoy my thoughts on P5 :3
SuperButterBuns keep getting the feeling im screwing something up or useing personas that are bad their are higher level personas with better skills then arsen but i love him hes cool looking and i will suffer for that im sure
Persona 4 was JoJo Diamond is Not Crash 100%. Teens in a small town looking for a serial killer checks out AND IT EVEN HAS THE TELEPHONE POLE KILL, GUYS! Also, both are part 4 in their respective series ofc
TLCBonaparte Ahem,We already have a dog. I don't think there's going to be another dog mascot. Wait, Don't you know about P3? I mean if you now P3 you know they couldn't have another dog (Koromaru)
Man, I can't wait to just be relaxing on my bed in the hospital at the age of 87 and then one of my friends, who is also around the age of 80, decides to barge into my hospital room yelling "Wake up, ya old coot, P6 has a release date!" while waving his walking cane in the air.
@Miko "Dad, Persona 6 was released 30 years ago." "No, no, didn't you hear Jack? It just released today!" "You're talking to a coat rack." "Yes it is a nice coat rack. Who are you again?" "Dad..." "Oh hey! Jack! What's that? Persona 6 is out?! Hot dog!"
i don't even SPOILERS In Kamoshida's palace, there is a room filled with Shiho's picture and flower paddles falling. This is a metaphor meaning Shiho lost her virginity.... Now I'm gonna leave the rest to you sirs/madams!
"The tone isn't dark" //SPOILERS //SPOILERS //SPOILERS //SPOILERS //SPOILERS //SPOILERS //SPOILERS //SPOILERS -Rape -Abuse -Plagerism after a Murder -Suicide -Schizophrenia (I'm midway through Alibaba's palace, so I'm going to call it that for now) -Isn't there several penis personas? Like there's at least one in Kamoshida's palace. Which further solidifies the whole rape thing.
Trey Atkins I don’t know if you finished it, but even further into the game there are some really dark cutscenes and events that take place, specifically after the casino palace and during the final “palace” of the base game
Wow, look at these WRONG people saying Futaba isn't best girl. I'm kidding. You're opinion is always right as long as Futaba isn't worst girl and Ohya isn't best.
Also, while I love Makoto, she's a little too serious, which is fine if you like that. She does bitch slap someone though, so props to her. Makes up for the MAX Charm I took 4 1/2 months to reach.
Omg, the palaces are SO much more fun than the randomised dungeons. They make the process of levelling up your characters much less of a grind and give you more options in how you play (sneaking past enemies to save SP vs fighting everything to gain experience). I'm also very happy that the social links with side characters can also give you abilities and increase stats, so it's less of a struggle to decide whether you should hang out with Person X or try to gain more charm points because sometimes you can accomplish both at once.
soma Marin Is Haru a fleshed out character on the team? She seems to get the short end of the stick in YT videos. No spoilers please (I just got Futaba on the team)
MrShinyArceus It depends, by the time u get her, her element is usefull in the dungeon. And yeah, the same Way Ryuji and Ann Góes more and more to the background, her, Crow and Queen gets pushed to the frontlines. And her Confident development is Nice enough. Not as good as Futaba's and Yusuke, but kind of....you better see it' yourself. She is probably the nicest character in the party, and The Second most Fun after Futaba XD
"Best Mascot Character ever." Well I have to correct myself here after I watched the Anime "Made in Abyss" . When it comes to awesome Mascot Characters Morgana got kicked of the throne pretty hard by a certain fluffy bunny. He really does not compare. I still like Morgana a lot.
For it goes Persona 3-best story and side characters Persona 4-best characters and social links Persona 5-best themes and gameplay I love almost all the characters and fangirl over them
I played in normal mode and the only boss that kicked my ass was the 2nd one. Those paintings were so annoying. Rip me I guess I'm just trash at the game. Lol
My first clear playtime was 150 hrs. Pretty sure 50 of those where when I fell asleep with the game on and didn't remember if I saved or not when i woke up. Yusuke is totes best bud/wifey material but I gotta say, Haru was a surprise when I saw All out attack win screen animation. Made me fall in love with her.
Nah, you didn't fall asleep. Any other game I'd say sure, but if you scratched more than an inch into the persona campaign's iceberg(metaphorical, not the meme icebergs that I'm sure there's tons of videos on) 150 hours sounds short lol I'm at 35 hours and I just unlocked Yusuke and still have 2 weeks to beat Madarame's palace lol
Ann is easily my favorite starting girl in Persona, mostly because I never feel this game goes down the awful "Ahhhh pervert" *punch* stuff, the school trip cements my opinions on why she's just a cool character
I mean she kinda did that to Ryuji during the beach trip but more in a teasing way She’s so well written tho, she’s not really a big anime trope like Futaba or Haru
@@KhaiNguyen-ru7lk Personally I feel like she never got enough to do. That sort of goes for a lot of the Phantom Thieves once their intro arcs are over.
@@LupineShadowOmega more story moments would’ve definitely been nice, but I still can’t say that characters like Ann were underdeveloped (the confidants are the remainders of their arcs). Also, have you played Strikers? It provides a ton of good content for the most underutilized characters
18:08 "Futaba is 15 and you're gross" Huh... Buns, most of the other girls are 16/17. We're all going to Hell already anyway, so I don't think one or two years younger is going to make any difference... lol
I am currently 100 hours in my play-through of P5R and I can say that Joker is my best boy (followed by Yusuke/Akechi) and Futaba is my best girl! Her backstory almost made me cry like a baby and she is just so precious & adorable!
I liked Morgana in the beginning, but now all he does is tell me to go to sleep and how tired I am. Also he has to narrate every single little thing I do. "OH YOU ATE A HAMBURGER! YOU MUST HAVE MORE COURAGE NOW!"
eh true, but what would replace it is just "i ate a burger and i feel that i have more GUTS". but still this doesnt give that cat the right to tell me when to go to sleep. morgana you tell me to go to sleep, i will kick the shit out of you
The thing is, I actually preferred the "first person" narrative, for example like you said: "i ate a burger and i feel that i have more GUTS". It just feels silly when Morgana has to explain every little thing to you and it kinda breaks the immersion.
Since Rise and Futaba are supposed to be in the same grade in their respective games. She (Futaba) would at some point have turned 16 as well. P5 just never brings up any character's birthday.
I've never played a persona game in my life until persona 5 dont even like games where u have to wait your turn to attack what additionally caught my eye was the steelbook i tried it out and i absolutely love it if your skeptical about buying this game take my word for it and try it out
Actually, I saw it was on sale one day on the PlayStation Store (for $47) and I was already kinda curious so I bought it, got most of the way through the first palace and didn't touch it again for a couple of months until a few days ago and I've been playing it almost nonstop since. In three days, my invested hours went from about 12 or 15 to about 40 or so, the same amount of time it took me to beat Tales of Berseria (which I described as pretty long to an online friend who really seems to like first-person shooters and sports games).
God! I've been spoiled for what I can only guess is a lot, but this takes the cake. Gosh. I don't think I will ever look at the game the same now. (In all honesty though, I am a bit mad. I was secretly hoping this game would just last forever. I'm on the fourth palace and I feel like I could just continue this story until the end of time.)
Should I make love with Nuclear motorcycle/Student Council president girl? Should I continue being the Sexy Punk doctors little guinea pig? Or should I fuck the Hot Maid Teacher? I'm conflicted
Haru is so polite. It's like Atlus was trying to make a modern princess. I mean she thinks like rich girl, but is shy and polite. But she can be super aggressive when she's back into a corner, but Makoto is BAE!!!!!!!!!
16:17 the term for this type of story development is actually called "en media res" which is Latin for in the middle of things. It's when the story throws you in the middle and you are filled into what is happening through dialogue or in this case, a ton of flashbacks. (I started playing P5 when learning the Odyseyy and I got so happy when I realized that)
The 4th Palace is probably my favorite Palace. The music, overall theme, backstory and feelings that the place brings up are extremely personal and amazingly well done.
"Japanese Sly Cooper" :D I did get a Sly vibe from this game. My mom even said today as I was playing it that it reminded her of Sly Cooper a little bit. :)
Just beat this game 2 days ago, clocking in at 99 hours and while I miss my time with the phantom thieves, I'm happy to have my life back. Oh and Futaba is still easily best waifu. Fight me!
i am 60 hours in the game and I'm surprised that the story is still not deep and that I'm still far from finding every party member. This is the game from the dreams of any jrpg fan.
194 hours in. NG+ from bad ending so I could start game with max social stats and make more than 3 maxed and 5 half full confidant relationships. Now on 3rd palace. Dream of a jrpg fan, though beginning railroading gets worse the second time
I discovered your channel literally 3 days ago and I have done nothing but binge on your sweet buttery tones and your Persona videos are by far my favourite! (Though all of your vids are pretty damng gud) Keep doing what you're doing! Love ya
BUNS! THE PROTAG SAID AT LEAST TWO WORDS IN THE OPENING CUTSCENE! IT'S A FREAKING MIRACLE! Also in you P5 for beginners can you try to explain the weakness and one more system. I tried to help a UA-camr understand how the system works, but they didn't seem to fully understand. No idea how to explain it any better and it's their first jrpg Persona game, since they did play P4:Arena or Arena Untimax, I can never remember which. Anyways, wonderful videos, I always love hearing your opinions, looking forward to the next one!
Damn! This is how you do reviews... Very deep expression of how you feel bout the game. If this review doesn't give you the last Puch to buy the game nothing will. Thumbs up
You realise makoto is jack of all trade right? Ann is superior combat wise and Ryuji just Destroy everything, Also Yusuke is Solid, Morgana can heal, critical hit, Buff and dodge so.....and Haru is actually pretty good and have a Grenade Luncher...makoto.......she have a Bike.......thats it.
thats actually a terrible thing. romancing a girl gets you a special valentines item which allows their s link to rank up faster each ng+. so romance a different girl each time to get their items
Buns,ya Dingus! Persona 2 didn't have a gun ability. Party members had guns,but they were their weapons,not a separate skill. Persona 1 was the one that had high schoolers with guns *Shadow the Hedgehog theme starts playing*
CyberianWinter Futaba reminds me of myself at that age tbh one could also say she has Asperges, in the fact she has trouble talking to others unless the topic interests her
As a person for who Persona 5 was my first SMT style game it couldn't have been a better introduction to the genre. Now granted I played the first 4 palaces on Easy mode, cause y'know new thing, but it felt like such a rewarding game to jump back into every weekend when I got back on console. Very, very good story telling, other than that one sequence before the 5th Palace (You all know what I'm talking about). Now I did watch a good few hours of an lp before jumping in (Just until the 3rd Palace watching) and I am super glad I jumped into this series now. The thing that kept me away from SMT style games was how slow and heavily boring the combat always looked but between the art style, the phenomenal music and very mature nature in handling how a group of teens would handle super natural powers with genuine moral questioning was so unique to me. Also I'm studying Jung a bit so this game handling the idea of the 'persona' and demon I was like a child in a candy store visiting the concept of the Palaces. Also just to flame the waifu wars further Makoto is best girl, if Futaba was, not 15, it would be more difficult to decide. Ann was too cardboard outside of her confidant. She blended into the background with Yusuke Morgana and Ryuji after the bug boys Palace. Makoto had so much more development and interaction all through the game right to the end. (Also let's just face it, Ann and Ryuji were totally getting it on behind Jokers back.) Moral of the story; P5 very welcoming game to newcomers in every possible way, and Makoto best girl and waifu for laifu.
I just finished this game for the first time, first game in the series. I played on normal. I found the difficulty curve to be fantastic, as whenever I died, it's because I was careless (or an unexpected attack from a boss) but I never found myself stuck or overwhelmed. It was easy to learn and pick up for sure, and it never felt too punishing.
"Futaba is 15 and your gross" Ok so Akira is gross for dating someone a year younger But your saying makoto is best girl and she's seventeen so wouldn't that make her "gross" for dating Akira
I feel like this is the video Atlas used when deciding what to change in persona 5 royal. Baton pass is available immediately, ammo is refilled between fights (and makes a lot of sense with the cognition theme) and the camera is movable fully during stealth
First video of yours I have seen. It was great! This is probably the best spoiler free reviews I've seen. I was amazed at how much detail you went into without spoiling anything. The video was also really funny. 😄
This is my first Persona game and I fucking loved it! This video is actually what convinced me to pick it up and I'm so, so happy I did. When a game gets you to cry because the characters and the journey was so good that you're happy it's over but sad to see these guys quest end, you know that's a damn good game! I love this game so much!!! Also, Ann is best girl.
Xavior Nieves ... I felt the same way my brother and I were playing it and we were getting close to the end and I was like I know we're getting close and I love this story it's amazing and I wanna see how it ends but I don't want it too lol
Ikr. Specially since she is only like around 1 to 2 years younger then the others. Whats with the tumblr attitude all of a sudden. Its not like MC and co are in their 30s. Plus how can people be even physically capable of not adoring her route...like....its so damn adorable.
I'm like 10 hours and about to finish Kamoshida's castle. The first 2-3 hours went by slow, but now I just keep binging the game and I can't stop unless I am forced to by family, school work, and basic necessities. (Also, I know this is 5 years later. I was late on the game, really late. I just found out what the game was a month ago.)
I'm actually happier that events that take you away for a week are not in this game since I ended up having way more time for my social links. Persona 3 skipped all of summer vacation just so you can train so that you can beat mamoru in kendo or swimming. That still makes me mad.
This is my first time watching any of your videos, and it is so good that inspired my own reviews. Congratulations on the channel, and fiy, only inspired, not copying anything. Love your content
Yusuke is best waifu... what do you mean I still can't date him??? Un-fuckin-believable But seriously, I had a really hard time picking a best girl in this game. I loved Ann from day 1, but then Makoto came along and punched me right in the feels, then once I thought I had all that figured out, Futaba hacked her way into my heart, like the fuck (Haru was there too I guess). Honestly I like seeing Futaba, Sojiro, and the Protag as the wholesome glasses adoptive family, so I went for that. As for romance... I didn't date anyone cuz I was still salty about Yusuke (just look at that beautiful man)
Mecha_Gaeb Is Haru a good character in the game? The Phantom Thieves team has a special chemistry that keeps getting better and better with each new member. Does Haru fit perfectly in with the team dynamic? I just got Futaba on the team.
I think it's moreso the fact that she comes in relatively late in the game so you don't have as much time to get comfortable with her in the group, it's kind of like the Naoto situation except with Naoto you got to see her when you first got Kanji. As far as her character goes, I like her, she just comes in a little late.
Hank Hill Maxing Haru's Confidant can be troublesome since we practically only have one month... So no time to spare, equip empress persona and go perfectionist... ^^
I'm sooo confuse with the age right now....ain't 1st year usually 15, 2nd 16 and 3rd 17 though? according to the characters profile. Or am I an ignorance fuck who doesn't know any better?
VGJoker2015 the thing is that a lot of the people playing persona games are late teens to late 20's and a 25 year old man going waifu-crazy over a girl who just graduated middle school IS gross lmao. at least with ann makoto and especially the adults its not AS creepy
My brother and I took turns playing through the palaces. We're both fans of the Persona series and it was a fun time playing with my brother and discussing what attacks and abilities he should use.
I started the game not too long ago and I already have 40+ hours (it's ruining my life but that's ok). It's my first Persona and holy shit is it fantastic! I love the character designs, and sass choices. The art makes me drown in a puddle of tears for how lovely it looks! I'm glad I found your beginner video or I probably would have missed out on playing the game. Also *cough* Tae is best *cough*.
Futaba Sakura is the best girl for me because I must just have a thing for readheads considering she kinda reminds me of my crush. Despite that, she even was a recluse in the begging of the game (like me) and we also both play video games
I don't think I have agreed with a review so much in a long time. Awesome video! Shoutouts to saying the exact same thing about the P4 story events :).
I've played many Japanese games over the years but not turn based RPGs, but after seeing the style this game has and hearing it's perfect for newcomers I've given it a go I'm a few hours in just got Arsene Persona, hope I don't get overwhelmed later but so far so :) I'm a massive fan of storytelling and games with interesting characters
For all those curious, Persona 5 WILL be the next For Beginners! Expect it to be a very long video but Im so excited to make it. In the mean time I hope you guys enjoy my thoughts on P5 :3
Good luck with your beginners video since the game is so ridiculously bulky xD
Staapphh!!! My boner has a limit!
SuperButterBuns cant wait 😂
***** Persona has always been a Sony exclusive franchise. Even P1-4 are not on the PC. Unless you count emulations.
SuperButterBuns keep getting the feeling im screwing something up or useing personas that are bad their are higher level personas with better skills then arsen but i love him hes cool looking and i will suffer for that im sure
Persona 6 is going to be about 4 teens and a dog investigating paranormal activities in some sort of... van.
I would sell my soul if we would get the option to say "Zoinks!"
But Persona 4 was already Scooby Doo though.
Persona 4 was JoJo Diamond is Not Crash 100%. Teens in a small town looking for a serial killer checks out AND IT EVEN HAS THE TELEPHONE POLE KILL, GUYS! Also, both are part 4 in their respective series ofc
TLCBonaparte Ahem,We already have a dog. I don't think there's going to be another dog mascot.
Wait, Don't you know about P3?
I mean if you now P3 you know they couldn't have another dog (Koromaru)

Fair warning, your comment is about to be deleted
smokebomb.exe yh cause it's totally true
Nice try, guy. Almost got me. 😏
"Let's not do that today."
Even though Futaba is 15
remember, Naoto are also 15 too. (ya know best girl)
Rise was 16. She she says this herself in Golden.
Yeah someone else told me that a second ago.
thanks anyway!
Since Rise and Futaba are supposed to be in the same grade in their respective games. She (Futaba) would at some point have turned 16 as well. P5 just never brings up any character's birthday.

I've never played a persona game in my life until persona 5 dont even like games where u have to wait your turn to attack what additionally caught my eye was the steelbook i tried it out and i absolutely love it if your skeptical about buying this game take my word for it and try it out
Actually, I saw it was on sale one day on the PlayStation Store (for $47) and I was already kinda curious so I bought it, got most of the way through the first palace and didn't touch it again for a couple of months until a few days ago and I've been playing it almost nonstop since. In three days, my invested hours went from about 12 or 15 to about 40 or so, the same amount of time it took me to beat Tales of Berseria (which I described as pretty long to an online friend who really seems to like first-person shooters and sports games).
This is my second Persona. I played the first game years ago on Ps1.
Hifumi. It just kinda happened and i regret nothing
Explains her confidant
Futaba, By far best girl

SPOILER!!!!
There is an ending.
I love this comment
GASP! HOW COULD YOU SO THIS!!!!
God! I've been spoiled for what I can only guess is a lot, but this takes the cake. Gosh. I don't think I will ever look at the game the same now. (In all honesty though, I am a bit mad. I was secretly hoping this game would just last forever. I'm on the fourth palace and I feel like I could just continue this story until the end of time.)
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
the sad part is one of my friends woupd genuinly gwt upset if i saod this
19:00 Catherine came out for both PS3 and 360
My badddddd, totally forgot about that. My brain thought since P5 is Sony exclusive that Catherine was too :P
Makoto and Takemi have me conflicted. Do I choose pure council pres or punk rock doctor?
This guy gets me. Nukes on motorcycles or legs legs legs, it's splitting me in half.
banging a teacher is pretty hot
NOW THIS IS A GUY WHO GETS IT!!! Kawakami is BAE!
anthill350 I agree
Should I make love with Nuclear motorcycle/Student Council president girl? Should I continue being the Sexy Punk doctors little guinea pig? Or should I fuck the Hot Maid Teacher? I'm conflicted
Haru is so polite. It's like Atlus was trying to make a modern princess. I mean she thinks like rich girl, but is shy and polite. But she can be super aggressive when she's back into a corner, but Makoto is BAE!!!!!!!!!
16:17 the term for this type of story development is actually called "en media res" which is Latin for in the middle of things. It's when the story throws you in the middle and you are filled into what is happening through dialogue or in this case, a ton of flashbacks. (I started playing P5 when learning the Odyseyy and I got so happy when I realized that)
futaba is like 1 year younger than you ingame let me enjoy my smol dork wife in peace
Evil Muffin I think she's talking about the adult fan art of her more than Futaba's average fan 😅 ...and yes, she is best girl.
Dude, there is adult fanart of Nanako.
Haru is best waifu. Isn't that right, Haru?
Haru: *giggles*
You're so cute. *pinches cheek*
Fluffy hair a best.
OwlFanatic I want the cinnamon roll waifu.
OwlFanatic ah, Forehead-chan
#MorganaIsBestNaggyWaifuConfirmed
Haru and Joker would have the fluffiest haired children.
i dont care Futaba is Cute ! and i will hug her all day
The 4th Palace is probably my favorite Palace. The music, overall theme, backstory and feelings that the place brings up are extremely personal and amazingly well done.
"Japanese Sly Cooper" :D I did get a Sly vibe from this game. My mom even said today as I was playing it that it reminded her of Sly Cooper a little bit. :)
well Glasses-Kun is 16 so dating Futaba is okay. Plus her max S link is like playing with hax
I REGRET NOTHING
And Glasses-Kun is technically not Futaba's brother
I loved this game. My favorite types of games are the ones where the story is so compelling and powerful that it makes you actually cry.
I already watched tons of review of P5. But I see SuperButterBuns', I clicked, I watched, I'm happy.
[SPOILERS]
MORGANA IS A BOY
Thomas Strohl ????????
False. Morgana is a car.
I haven't played P5 and accidentally clicked Read More
Never have I been happier to see a troll
@@chocolatecello1483 Your comment deserves more upvotes.
I already knew that, since he's being a simp towards Ann
Just beat this game 2 days ago, clocking in at 99 hours and while I miss my time with the phantom thieves, I'm happy to have my life back.
Oh and Futaba is still easily best waifu. Fight me!
i am 60 hours in the game and I'm surprised that the story is still not deep and that I'm still far from finding every party member. This is the game from the dreams of any jrpg fan.
194 hours in. NG+ from bad ending so I could start game with max social stats and make more than 3 maxed and 5 half full confidant relationships. Now on 3rd palace. Dream of a jrpg fan, though beginning railroading gets worse the second time
I discovered your channel literally 3 days ago and I have done nothing but binge on your sweet buttery tones and your Persona videos are by far my favourite! (Though all of your vids are pretty damng gud) Keep doing what you're doing! Love ya
BUNS! THE PROTAG SAID AT LEAST TWO WORDS IN THE OPENING CUTSCENE! IT'S A FREAKING MIRACLE! Also in you P5 for beginners can you try to explain the weakness and one more system. I tried to help a UA-camr understand how the system works, but they didn't seem to fully understand. No idea how to explain it any better and it's their first jrpg Persona game, since they did play P4:Arena or Arena Untimax, I can never remember which. Anyways, wonderful videos, I always love hearing your opinions, looking forward to the next one!
but
the previous protag's Say stuff In Cut scenes as well
Oh my god really? I never realized.
Favorite Persona: Matador
Favorite OST: Whims of Fate
Favorite Waifu: Makoto
Best: YUSUKE OH MY LAWD HE'S SO FUGGEN COOL AND ART AND HE INSPIRES ME.
Bkind R3wind I may be 2 yrs late but matador is great because he carried me in spirit through my first playthrough
My favorite Persona is Senri because I love not dying to Yukiko in P4
Damn! This is how you do reviews... Very deep expression of how you feel bout the game. If this review doesn't give you the last Puch to buy the game nothing will. Thumbs up
1st gameplay - Makoto
2nd gameplay - Makoto
3rd gameplay - Makoto
You realise makoto is jack of all trade right? Ann is superior combat wise and Ryuji just Destroy everything, Also Yusuke is Solid, Morgana can heal, critical hit, Buff and dodge so.....and Haru is actually pretty good and have a Grenade Luncher...makoto.......she have a Bike.......thats it.
nah makoto> ann she has better recovery than Ann ,cure status aliments which ann can't do.both hit about same though
You realize he's just talking about dating in the game and that nothing you said really matters?
thats actually a terrible thing. romancing a girl gets you a special valentines item which allows their s link to rank up faster each ng+. so romance a different girl each time to get their items
Skitt_Meister Actually you get the bonus by getting any confidant to rank 10 and you can still get the items regardless if you friend zone the girls.
yusuke is best girl tf u talking about
Goro "Pancakes" Akechi is best girl.
Goro: So I heard somebody wanted to talk about delicious pancakes! (Little kids in the background: YAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYY!)
No More Murders?
chai He's SO hilarious when you go to the Planetarium with Miishima!
Buns,ya Dingus! Persona 2 didn't have a gun ability. Party members had guns,but they were their weapons,not a separate skill. Persona 1 was the one that had high schoolers with guns *Shadow the Hedgehog theme starts playing*
Cursedwind I think I cut myself with the Edgyness
Futaba may be a 15 Year old, but she's a High school first year, and you're a 16 year old high school second year. Not problem with that :^)
And I'm 20, but I'd still smash. At this point if she were real, she would be 18 now, so that's fine.
Please don't call the cops
@@Wheels2056FBI OPEN UP

Price (Bank of Gluttony) is easy one of the best OST ever made! I could hear that for hours.
I've been waiting for this!!
Buns. You're best girl.
"Futaba's 15 and you're gross. "
She's a cute, sassy, computer genius. How am I supposed to resist that?
CyberianWinter
And on top of all that, she looks just like an Inkling.
CyberianWinter we have been going around saying that to each other in my apartment
not gross if she's older than me (lenny face)
have a seat over there.
CyberianWinter Futaba reminds me of myself at that age tbh one could also say she has Asperges, in the fact she has trouble talking to others unless the topic interests her
As a person for who Persona 5 was my first SMT style game it couldn't have been a better introduction to the genre. Now granted I played the first 4 palaces on Easy mode, cause y'know new thing, but it felt like such a rewarding game to jump back into every weekend when I got back on console. Very, very good story telling, other than that one sequence before the 5th Palace (You all know what I'm talking about).
Now I did watch a good few hours of an lp before jumping in (Just until the 3rd Palace watching) and I am super glad I jumped into this series now. The thing that kept me away from SMT style games was how slow and heavily boring the combat always looked but between the art style, the phenomenal music and very mature nature in handling how a group of teens would handle super natural powers with genuine moral questioning was so unique to me.
Also I'm studying Jung a bit so this game handling the idea of the 'persona' and demon I was like a child in a candy store visiting the concept of the Palaces.
Also just to flame the waifu wars further Makoto is best girl, if Futaba was, not 15, it would be more difficult to decide. Ann was too cardboard outside of her confidant. She blended into the background with Yusuke Morgana and Ryuji after the bug boys Palace. Makoto had so much more development and interaction all through the game right to the end. (Also let's just face it, Ann and Ryuji were totally getting it on behind Jokers back.) Moral of the story; P5 very welcoming game to newcomers in every possible way, and Makoto best girl and waifu for laifu.
I just finished this game for the first time, first game in the series. I played on normal. I found the difficulty curve to be fantastic, as whenever I died, it's because I was careless (or an unexpected attack from a boss) but I never found myself stuck or overwhelmed. It was easy to learn and pick up for sure, and it never felt too punishing.
Matt Mercer is best waifu
Futaba best grill
"Futaba is 15 and your gross"
Ok so Akira is gross for dating someone a year younger
But your saying makoto is best girl and she's seventeen so wouldn't that make her "gross" for dating Akira
EXACTLY.
I mean, she's talking about the player who is attracted to Futaba (someone like me who is older than 18) but you're definitely not wrong on that
Dont forget confidants like Ohya and Kawakami exist
She's like a sister tho it just feels weird and I mean you can't do daddy sakura like that
@@zaydenfox9379 They arent blood related
I feel like this is the video Atlas used when deciding what to change in persona 5 royal. Baton pass is available immediately, ammo is refilled between fights (and makes a lot of sense with the cognition theme) and the camera is movable fully during stealth
Being able to use the dpad to cycle from hiding spot to hiding spot was an absolute godsend
First video of yours I have seen. It was great! This is probably the best spoiler free reviews I've seen. I was amazed at how much detail you went into without spoiling anything. The video was also really funny. 😄
This is my first Persona game and I fucking loved it! This video is actually what convinced me to pick it up and I'm so, so happy I did. When a game gets you to cry because the characters and the journey was so good that you're happy it's over but sad to see these guys quest end, you know that's a damn good game! I love this game so much!!! Also, Ann is best girl.
Xavior Nieves ... I felt the same way my brother and I were playing it and we were getting close to the end and I was like I know we're getting close and I love this story it's amazing and I wanna see how it ends but I don't want it too lol
"Futaba is 15 and you're gross" I feel personally attacked
Yeah, man. We do this with american celebs all the time.
just let me like my cute anime girls in peace
Ikr. Specially since she is only like around 1 to 2 years younger then the others. Whats with the tumblr attitude all of a sudden. Its not like MC and co are in their 30s.
Plus how can people be even physically capable of not adoring her route...like....its so damn adorable.
I don't get how it's gross since the MC is only a year older than her.
It's like everyone forget that the best grill of P4 is also 15 too (It's Naoto of course)
I'm here to say that I'm 50 hours into the game and it's amazing! PS: ButterBuns I love your voice!
I'm like 10 hours and about to finish Kamoshida's castle. The first 2-3 hours went by slow, but now I just keep binging the game and I can't stop unless I am forced to by family, school work, and basic necessities.
(Also, I know this is 5 years later. I was late on the game, really late. I just found out what the game was a month ago.)
“Things are dark”
*cuts to shiho*
😭😭😭😭
18:08 the main character is 16 and so am I, don't take this away from me before I'm actually old enough for it to be weird.
I'm actually happier that events that take you away for a week are not in this game since I ended up having way more time for my social links. Persona 3 skipped all of summer vacation just so you can train so that you can beat mamoru in kendo or swimming. That still makes me mad.
amém. no Time on a tournment you can't Win.
now this makes the wait for Shin Megami Tensei 5 even harder
Ann is best girl and that is facts. Also The Days When My Mother Was There is a pretty cool song
Kawakami best girl
This is my first time watching any of your videos, and it is so good that inspired my own reviews. Congratulations on the channel, and fiy, only inspired, not copying anything. Love your content
Holy shit! You're at 100k subscribers! I've been subscribed since 2k subscribers back when you were playing The Escapists.
Yusuke is best waifu... what do you mean I still can't date him??? Un-fuckin-believable
But seriously, I had a really hard time picking a best girl in this game. I loved Ann from day 1, but then Makoto came along and punched me right in the feels, then once I thought I had all that figured out, Futaba hacked her way into my heart, like the fuck (Haru was there too I guess). Honestly I like seeing Futaba, Sojiro, and the Protag as the wholesome glasses adoptive family, so I went for that. As for romance... I didn't date anyone cuz I was still salty about Yusuke (just look at that beautiful man)
Mecha_Gaeb Futaba all the way
Mecha_Gaeb Is Haru a good character in the game? The Phantom Thieves team has a special chemistry that keeps getting better and better with each new member. Does Haru fit perfectly in with the team dynamic? I just got Futaba on the team.
I think it's moreso the fact that she comes in relatively late in the game so you don't have as much time to get comfortable with her in the group, it's kind of like the Naoto situation except with Naoto you got to see her when you first got Kanji. As far as her character goes, I like her, she just comes in a little late.
ive benched haru sincr i cant baton pass her
Hank Hill Maxing Haru's Confidant can be troublesome since we practically only have one month... So no time to spare, equip empress persona and go perfectionist... ^^
"Futaba is 15 and you're gross", like that line..
Friendly reminder that Rise and Naoto also 15.....
Then there's Kanji fucking Tatsumi
the precious big boi
Actually Rise is 16
Bearly
She's 16 in DAN (Not sure about P4 Arena event though)
but in your time when you CAN dating with her she's 15
Rise turns 16 June 1st during the events of Persona 4. To quote Golden "Aww, sorry Kanji! But my birthday was last month, so I'm sixteen now." - 07/25
"But also a reminder that Futaba is 15 and your gross!"
Well, "you're" *sixteen* and you're weird!
17 to 18 the MC is a second year in Japanese high school putting him in the 17 category
I'm sooo confuse with the age right now....ain't 1st year usually 15, 2nd 16 and 3rd 17 though?
according to the characters profile.
Or am I an ignorance fuck who doesn't know any better?
First year is 10th grade so 15/16 2nd year is 11th so 16/17 and third year is 12th grade so 17/18 I would think.
thx for the info
VGJoker2015 the thing is that a lot of the people playing persona games are late teens to late 20's and a 25 year old man going waifu-crazy over a girl who just graduated middle school IS gross lmao.
at least with ann makoto and especially the adults its not AS creepy
i don't really know how you do it buns but you always manage to make my day pass from a sad one to a very happy one and i really thx all that you do
@SuperButterBuns I have just found your channel because of P5, and jesus almighty you are cool as hell... subscribed.... Loved the video!
I started ng+ right after I beat the game. Still going strong at 150 hours lol
i beat the game my only regret is not creating Mara as a Persona. Well on to new game plus
You mean Throbbing king of desire lol
Hey I just discovered your channel, really like your energy and your content is great.
Keep it up!
My brother and I took turns playing through the palaces. We're both fans of the Persona series and it was a fun time playing with my brother and discussing what attacks and abilities he should use.
I started the game not too long ago and I already have 40+ hours (it's ruining my life but that's ok). It's my first Persona and holy shit is it fantastic! I love the character designs, and sass choices. The art makes me drown in a puddle of tears for how lovely it looks! I'm glad I found your beginner video or I probably would have missed out on playing the game. Also *cough* Tae is best *cough*.
"Also Haru's here, say hi Haru!"
Okay but this killed me 😭🤣
"Futaba is 15" i am also 15 *lenny face*
God dammit I'm 13 fuuuuuuuu
Jules OP
why in the hell are you telling the internet you're 13?
I'm... 15 too...
Yeah...

And now a year has passed and you're probably that much older.
I almost beat the game. Then my ps3 burnt out. so you know. fun. But also Makoto is best girl, fight me. And Ryuji is best boy.
Ann is best girl but I agree ryuji is best boy. I won't Fite u.
@@basilbaby779 No yusuke
FOR REAL?
This is why I like memory cards. If you can just get a new system you can slap it in and pick right back up where you left off.
Futaba Sakura is the best girl for me because I must just have a thing for readheads considering she kinda reminds me of my crush. Despite that, she even was a recluse in the begging of the game (like me) and we also both play video games
Youre definitely one of the funnier youtubers ive come across. subbed

Hey! I really appreciate you doing a spoiler free version. Thanks! Also, I love your channel. I just discovered it but I subbed instantly.
the guns came from the original persona not part 2 buns those were just their default weapons lol
makoto is best girl, I'm currently going for my second playthrough now and hearing rivers while fighting the twins is soo satisfying.
"But also a reminder that Futaba is 15 and you're gross"
*Cough cough* they're all underage so its weird no matter what
Kinda. I was here for Kawakami and yes Joker is still underage.
I've played many Japanese games over the years but not turn based RPGs, but after seeing the style this game has and hearing it's perfect for newcomers I've given it a go I'm a few hours in just got Arsene Persona, hope I don't get overwhelmed later but so far so :) I'm a massive fan of storytelling and games with interesting characters
Your style of humor perfectly matches mine and I love everything about the two videos of yours that I've seen.
