To be fair the animation quality looks much better now with the limited screenshots/ PV we seen.
Lol if Marie lover route becomes canon
Before:
After:
Even though the original anime did a pretty good job summarizing the story from investigations to social links, the execution was shoddy at times. There are many areas where golden can be used to improve as well as the additional content.
1. They actually sneak the weapons this time. They don't need to use the ridiculous ones (except Narukami should use the golf club at the beginning), but their default. Narukami has his katana, yukiko with fan, kanji with chair etc. They don't even have to use their weapons outside of lesser shadows so they can still show off their personas.
2. More night time scenes since the MC can sneak out of the house in golden. Ties into Adachi.
3. Marie scenes and all things related to her. She should be a major focus by the near of the anime.
4. Adachi scenes and all things related to him (including that last letter) from p4g. The original P4 game didn't really let you get to know Adachi personally outside of house visits with Dojima so him having more character development with Narukami more throughout the anime will strengthen the impact of the latter part of the anime.
5. All the new scooter related events being animated. From "hitting on girls" with Yosuke and Kanji at Okina (which should be explored as well since you can visit now) to the beach trip which again has some funny moments as well involving a wardrobe malfunction.
6. A garden scene with Nanako/Dojima since planting seeds is a new feature
7. More character development with the party characters which will reveal their 3rd form personas after main investigation is complete.
8. Ski event being animated that includes the ghost stories and being lost in snow which will naturally tie into Marie.
9. Valentines day being animated. Doesn't mean we see Yu pick any official gf, but we can still see Yosuke being desperate for candy and Kanji being clueless about the importance of the chocolate.
10. Shadow Narukami either being removed or explained more in depth. I'll be honest I like how the MC actually had a shadow because of his fear of being alone after finally having several connections to people. How he didn't primarily pursue the truth, but wanted to spend time with his friends. It really adds perspective on how the MC thinks about leaving Inaba in spring along with his friends/family. However the shadow didn't even appear long as he was shoehorned with the Margaret encounter. All we know is that he uses numerous televisions with his face as a chosen guise.
This guise has been adapted for P4A 2 as well when shadow Narukami appears. Either we need a scene where the MC rejects his shadow (shadow transforms) and his friends help his ass out like how he did for all of them (convince him that they won't abandon him despite his worst fears) or just remove the concept entirely and revert back to the "special" person who obtained a persona without facing your shadow. Do it with more impact or not at all.
11. Epilogue being animated showing off how the main characters have changed as time passed from the outward appearance to their internal resolves.
12. New Persona themed music for the OP/ED sequences is a must. Time to make History should also be played somewhere in fights.
If this new anime at least covers around 7 or 8 of my points then I'll be satisfied. The reboot can feel like the FMA: brotherhood one if done right. P4G did add and refine a lot of stuff to the original game.
