Seeing someone in chat say "P4 feels" during Zenkichi's awakening, holy shit it really is. His Shadow was on the cusp of going berserk and he narrowly avoided that just in time.
Futaba’s awakening is also similar to the ones in P4 (she had to confront her shadow, which was on the verge of going berserk). I don’t think that it’s a coincidence at all that Futaba is the one the developers chose to have escaped and rendezvous with Zenkichi, eventually leading to his persona awakening (which is also akin to a P4 awakening).
P4 is set in the most boring setting (Inaba and a frickin mall with like 4 stores) because the themes are so goated Literally P3 P4 P5 and Metaphor all exceed at thematic perfection so much more than 99.8% of rpgs, especially the most popular ones, it’s crazy. I think Maruki’s arc beats the entire Bethesda catalogue in quality, flat out. So yeah Zenkichi goated beyond belief
Something I like to point out is that the Haru incident happens on 8/21. The anniversary of Futaba's mother having a mental shutdown and getting run over. Being in a car with Haru as the driver likely did not do her any favors that day when you think about it.
So, the drive from Fukuoka to Kyoto is a little less than eight hours (640.8km). If the PT leave in morning (I’ll be generous and say 8:00), and arrive at noon, as the game says, Haru was driving at almost 100mph for four hours straight. Honestly given everyone’s reactions I kinda thought it’d be faster
From Fukouka to Osaka will take around 8 hours and a round trip from Osaka to Kyoto is another hour. So Haru did that entire 9 hour journey in less than 4. So she’s running at least 200 mph minimum, in traffic
Makoto and Futaba may not have full arcs in this game, but they have their moments through connecting with Zenkichi. Makoto remembering her own father and sympathizing with Akane, and Futaba reminded of the planned murder of her mother and the kindness of her adoptive father.
2:57 to give a little more context on shadows. A Shadow its a part of you thats hard to come to terms with. Stuff about yourself that you that you rather ignore. dark impulses, repressed memories, guillty desires, everything that a person hates about themselves thats their shadow Real akane woud have taken those news rather diferent. But its shadow just took it at its most cinic and focus on her anger and hate twards her father. The voice in Zenkichi's head was his own shadow and by owning it and rebeling against his predicament he awaken a persona. A perfect blend on persona 4 and 5 awakening styles and I love it!
The Cup Noodle thing is weird because it used to say not to microwave, but they literally changed the packaging from styrofoam to paper because people kept ignoring the warnings. It IS microwavable now, and even has instructions to do so. The days of "You're not supposed to microwave it" are over now, chat is just behind the times for once. Good job, JC, hope you enjoyed your Cup Noodle.
That depends on the contry.... we still have instant noodles with stirophome cups in México. The cheep ones, you onlly buy on a pintch. The instrucciones said to add hot water close the cover and leet it Cook for over 3 minutes. And NOT microwave Most people know not to do that. Havn't seen anyone put one of those in the microwave in years but it did happend a lot over a decade aggo When I was in a middle school the cafetería use to sell those cups and they did microwave them. That was a Lawsuit waiting to happen, hope they don't do it any more.
probably my favorite thing about Zenkichi's persona, is that now only does it specialize in almighty, but it also doesn't have any elemental affinity, no weakness, nor resistance.
I picked the completely wrong video to watch before bed lol. I had this on in the background while I did something, but once I realized what part of the game this was, I had to finish the video. So much for fixing my sleep schedule XD
And now we get what people have been wanting to come back to Persona since P2EP: An adult persona user 🙌 We did also get Maruki too technically speaking, but this is the first time in a *long while* where we get to see a *genuine* awakening again. Not someone conforming to their shadow/persona and letting it do it's bidding with them like Maruki did, but someone who actually reflected on their actions and decided to rebel against who they've let themselves become. Everything about this awakening is fantastic, and I sincerely hope we get to see more adult users (outside of one other standout; intentionally being vague) in future entries. If not, then I definitely recommend playing the P2 duology at some point for its amazing parties.
stone lions holding balls are originated from Persia and became pretty widespread in Asia around 200 BC. the Japanese stone lions are called Kara Shishi, literally translated to “Tang Dynasty lions”, because the lions are spread to Japan through China in Tang dynasty.
JC’s aversion to anything “anime-ish” fan service happening in persona makes me really happy about how little interest he shows in P4 because that game is the definition of weird fanservice.
JC gives off the same vibe as Crystahhl, he will probably play P4 and have it as the least favorite because of all the weird stuff but won’t say it because P4 fanboys, P4 is the only persona game Crystahhl played and didn’t cry.
I honestly hopes he plays Persona 4 Golden first because if he plays Persona 3 Reload then 4 Golden he might not want to play 4 Golden because of the graphics. (But that’s what I think at least).
JC might not like P4 tho. P4 is full of weird anime scenes and moments and his aversion to that kind of fanservice may turn JC away from P4. P3R on the other hand night have a good chance.
@ That’s a fair take. The only thing is that I’ve learned is that most people won’t go back to play games that don’t stand up to the graphics of games we have now. Not saying everyone just most people sadly.
Oh the Hot Spring scene, the worst running joke in Persona. Makes the females go completely out of character for the sake of a stupid "The boys are pervs when it's a complete accident joke." This one pisses me off the most because they specifically only have Makoto beat the boys up even though she would be the most willing to let Joker of all people explain what's happening. But yeah, moral of the story, Hot Spring scenes in Persona suck
IMO Strikers’s scenes are still on the “better side” of those scenes, because the hot springs scenes from P4 are absolutely unnecessary and bad like it’s so weird.
I don't know how much value I'd put in the fitness tracking on your apple watch. I use a Samsung watch and nearly always fill all the rings. And the rings are 6000 steps, 500 calories burned, and 90 minutes equivalent of exercise. And honestly I've gained 10 pounds since I got the thing. Do find it kinda laughable that the Samsung health app says that the average person only walks 1800 steps a day somehow. I don't even get how that's possible.
but ye akechi would totally snipe them and aww man you should have replied with torture them zenkichi would have given a funny reply allso hard to believe they knew Ryuji's one true weakness, allso Zenkichi is sooo good and does insane damage even if he is under leveled he doesn't care his damage is still insane

@@adriansrsa90it’s honestly quite nice to have P4 in a small town compared to the others. It made sense because the whole game was very “homey”
Something I like to point out is that the Haru incident happens on 8/21. The anniversary of Futaba's mother having a mental shutdown and getting run over. Being in a car with Haru as the driver likely did not do her any favors that day when you think about it.
Oh wow, that is a nice (and creepy) detail!
So, the drive from Fukuoka to Kyoto is a little less than eight hours (640.8km). If the PT leave in morning (I’ll be generous and say 8:00), and arrive at noon, as the game says, Haru was driving at almost 100mph for four hours straight.

It was faster actually. Don't forget Haru made a wrong turn and they ended up in Osaka, as Sophia confirmed there was a jail there.
From Fukouka to Osaka will take around 8 hours and a round trip from Osaka to Kyoto is another hour.
So Haru did that entire 9 hour journey in less than 4.
So she’s running at least 200 mph minimum, in traffic
"Floof. Never. Drives!!!"

Well, to tight it further back, Persona 3 kinda also did this with Aigis
Haru peak Mario kart driver
Haru pulled a 400 mile drive in 4-6 hours in a camper. She was driving 70-100 MPH for the entire drive.
Let keep in mind that the drive to kyoto was supposedly 8hr drive and they expected to originally arrive by sundown but they get there by NOON
JC can finally watch the full intro again! There’s no more spoilers in it now!
A Strikers VOD for Christmas, awesome.

only makoto knows the true dept of Haru's driving skills, and jc you will understand the ironman/tony stark and akira being compaired later on
3:04:51 Yippie-ki-ya Motherf$%ker!!! Holy sh%t!!! Merry Christmas to us!!! Let's Fu%king GO!!!
Zenkichi's weapon is a type of sword called "Zweihander" @JC & Em Streams
Zenkichi's dad trot is the best
51:12 Safest driver in atlanta
That fits since his first meeting of the Thieves he called himself a knight in shining armor, neat
Merry Christmas JC, Em & imsatchel.
I love how Em supports the chat by telling you not to end the stream for her own purposes lol. The Em and chat coalition remains strong.

Merry Christmas JC!
Akane jail 🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥
He had cup noodle. Does that mean he wants to play Final Fantasy 15 and do the cup noodle side quest. You get a cup noodle hat for it.
"Belongs in a museum" is not an insult if your name is Indiana Jones!

I just know the minute he talks about P4 being problematic some weird0 will say “B-but this was okay at the time!”
My girl Haru
Perfect screenshot at 1:01:48, Sophia with the sniffa over her nose
You would love dancing tbh, but in terms of mainline games reload is definitely the way to go lol
Merry Christmas JC, Em and Satchel!🎄🙏
I think the Phantom Thieves' logo is based off of Arsene?
Hi did you ever played final draft if Alan Wake 2?
I went to Japan twice partly because of inspiration from Persona 5 and 4.
I honestly hopes he plays Persona 4 Golden first because if he plays Persona 3 Reload then 4 Golden he might not want to play 4 Golden because of the graphics. (But that’s what I think at least).
He’s already showing little interest in p4 so I doubt it.
JC might not like P4 tho. P4 is full of weird anime scenes and moments and his aversion to that kind of fanservice may turn JC away from P4. P3R on the other hand night have a good chance.
@ True, however without spoiling it that’s the point of the game.
I love P4, but I feel like it is good to play P3 first. That way you will get the references.
@ That’s a fair take. The only thing is that I’ve learned is that most people won’t go back to play games that don’t stand up to the graphics of games we have now. Not saying everyone just most people sadly.
Oh god... Makoto has LUMBAGO
gahdamn LUMBAGO boah
Sad he is not doing requests (
And the game spoiling Zenkichi's codename is like a 10/10 movie getting a boring trailer

But yeah, moral of the story, Hot Spring scenes in Persona suck
Well, Persona 3 did the scene in the best way
Persona 5 Royal (including the original) also had bath house scenes, but those are *infinitely* better than whatever this was.
IMO Strikers’s scenes are still on the “better side” of those scenes, because the hot springs scenes from P4 are absolutely unnecessary and bad like it’s so weird.
Merry Christmas
