Shin Megami Tensei and Persona

Sanoblaze has been reading the Man's Life series.

“All men have the great spirit of masculinity within themselves. The spirit of true manhood transcends space and time, and all people, of all cultures and genders… Feel it's call…”


And you Nanacons are getting a visit from the FBI party van one of these days.

No no no Balder.
I love the fucking shit out of cute things.
Cute things fuel me. But not in that way. God no. I appreciate cute things like Nanako in a completely non that way.
No worries. I'm just goofin' around. Unfortunately we do live in a world where a man can't safely make a completely innocent remark about a child. Everyone pays because of a handful of sick fucks.
I will say this though - the towel Nanako icon is of very dubious taste, mostly for the detail of keeping her face off-frame. If they want to cater to pettanko fans, Ayane could be a better choice even if still underage but at least she's high school underage.

Might as well share the manliest P4 fan art in my collection too.

I nominate Sanoblaze for Alex Louis Armstrong of Skullheart.

Still though, good lord.
I need to find more art like that.
I humbly take my new title with pride. May the sheer manliness of my manly man soul never tire.
 
Truly, they are scum.

If Adachi was playable (and he WILL be, he MUST) how do you guys think his playstyle would be? Probably a mix of Naoto and Yukiko; having Magatsu Izanagi harass you with pressure while sniping at you with his pistol.

I honestly am in the same boat as you Jutsei about cute things ^^

Also I'd see Adachi being as you said like Naoto, but I do seem him being a semi more aggressive yu play style when it comes to his persona.

I guess he'll be Hazama with a Stand. Lots of dirty, kick'em-while-they're-down moves.
Magatsu Izanagi couldl be considerably less refined than Izanagi, perhaps with stronger but more telegraphed moves. Also make exceptional use of the Fear ailment and maybe even have a Super for when it's in effect (Ghastly Wail, of course).
I imagine him only using the gun for point blank shots when M-Izanagi has the opponent pinned down with the naginata.
Also, he could have Heat Rise (all stats up), with the animation being him shooting himself Russian Roulette-style (and the adrenaline rush alone buffs him).

that is a good idea. I would love it if he had a random chance to have really high or low buffs with the roulette mechanic.

That would be an interesting and nice set up to add to the game for adachi ^^

Liz is already our resident Fear and Ghastly Wail (well, Memento Mori, but that's how it was translated) user. Why have another?

I think Adachi would be based around misdirection and status effects, with a lot of feintable moves and stuff that comes from strange angles.
 
I think his Izanagi would fight similarly to Yu's Izanagi, but I would love to see how his regular moves are
 
P42A Daily Picture Post! (PS if this is ever cumbersome, let me know)

Today's theme is a link to a thread on Dustloop by Kurushii with a bunch of Arcade Profile images which includes:

  • Purchasable palettes 19 -22. The last one is having the character and their Persona switch colors.
  • Glasses!
  • Player icons which can be purchased or earned.

Also, Japanese prices for navigators (aka your persona announcer like Rise is in the first game) I honestly can't remember how much they are here without turning on my PS3 and checking...:
Kuma: 500P$
Yosuke: 500P$
Nanako: 500P$
Mitsuru: 500P$
Aegis: 500P$
Fuka: 500P$

Edit - just go check the thread because direct links don't seem to work either.

Junpei rockin' them shades in a way only Junpei could.

Yukari's glasses seem a little too hipster for my tastes though.
 
Junpei, why do you have everything... NOW I LEARN YOU HAVE CLEAN HITS.

THE VERY MECHANIC ANNIE IS GOING TO HAVE.

Wait, really?

Shit, that's actually kinda cool. Makes me wonder if Annie might not be as bad as I thought....

NAAAAAAH!

On topic, that's interesting, because it matches with the whole baseball motif he has going on.
 
I'm very certain Annie will be absolutely flawless and an amazing fighter for the game...it's just people like DDB that drive me away from her cuse of how annoying they get, she'll still be amazing though...

On Topic: Also so it's been clarified that he'll do clean hits?
 
I've definitely seen the term "Clean Hit!" appear sometimes when Junpei hits with his bat in some P4U2 gameplay. He might have that.

Also, some important news: PerShoNa will become playable in P4U2 on December 19th, and some new artwork has been revealed on the P3 movie website. I'll let it speak for itself.

Is that the pier that Labrys spent her final moments before her capture?
Sorry I don't know if that pier is significant in any game other than P4A. It's the only Persona game I've played.
 
Speaking about the P3 Movie series, the first film did pretty good (more specific details in link) during the opening weekend.

Also yeah that pier is a significant location to accumulate the feels lol
 
Holy crap Yu's jumping D is fast now.

Yeah Yu is one of the few characters that got some pretty radical changes overall. He is pretty different now compared to his older incarnation. Really have to change up my approach now with him.

Yu does his accumulations in the bedroom. :3

Yu: "Look Chie/Yukiko/Rise/Naoto (pick one) - you either put out or you don't get a super awesome Persona. What's it gonna be then? You want us all to die in the TV world because you were the only without a awakened Persona?"
Chie/Yukiko/Rise/Naoto (pick one): "What do you mean 'the only one'?"
Yu: Oh shit! Said to much... *jumps off window* I REGRET NOTHING!
