Look at this slut clinging to your supposed best friend, worst girl.
There had better be a good explanation for this. I'm not going to tolerate getting cucked in a game that isn't even out yet.
>>336641574
She's not even touching him in the pic m8
>>336642068
>>336642068
the mc is so cute
>>336642129
>>336642137
>never had female friends comfortable with touching you
>>336641574
Only virgins with no female friends find that weird.
>>336641574
are you really that insecure and possessive?
>>336642248
>>336642249
>letting your girlfriend affectionately touch your friends
ITT cucks that support open relationships
>>336642375
Are you that guy from last week who was ranting about how people in relationships should enforce curfews on each other?
>>336642375
Happens to me all the time, with my friend's girlfriends. Of course I'm too much of a beta to get one for myself.
>>336642497
No, but he's right whoever he is.
He's her bf though, MC got friendzoned at some point
?
>>336642375
>elbow on shoulder
>affectionate
>>336641574
Yeah, I want him for myself. No whores allowed.
>look at your best friend and the girl you are going to ntr away from him
>>336642248
>female friends
>Implying
>>336643284
She has her arm wrapped around him in the OP
>>336643424
prove it
>>336642249
>>336642373
>>336642248
Speaking as the dude who did fuck with my friend's girl, if your girlfriend is wrapping her arm around your mate's arm then there are problems.
>>336641574
why does the blonde guy remind of me of the artist, mentaiko
>>336642373
Japanese depiction of an American girl, touching your friend. Yeah, most guys would put a stop to that shit instantly.
>>336641574
I hope the party members in this game can actually have real relationships with each other. And I don't just mean romantic ones. It felt like in P4 everyone was too busy obsessing over the MC to really give a shit about each other except for Chie and Yukiko who were already best friends, and Naoto and Kanji, which went nowhere and had no closure.
I know that this series is so popular because of the self-insert aspects, but I'm sure people would still enjoy it if they toned it down just a TAD.
>>336642129
thats not how a body is supposed to look
>>336641574
I think it's kind of cute.
Persona 3 and 4 always had this blunt awkwardness between the male and female characters that they tried to play up for laughs.
It'd be nice to see the dynamic change up a bit in P5, and have some of them just naturally more comfortable around each other.
This
how dare she try to make a move to my lover?!?!
>>336642129
>>336642137
The characters always look amazing in their official artwork and completely shitty in the animated scenes, how has Atlus not re-hauled their animation department by now (or hired a different company if they outsource)?
>>336643617
Yosuke gets all the pain, while everyone else receive affection. Imagine how awesome it would have been if he had a later dungeon, he would have gone off on everyone in the game.
>>336643689
man the girls in this game look so bland
>>336641574
Well I'm not gonna fuck that bitch anyways. If Morgana has a romance I'm spamming that shit hard. Otherwise it'll have to be Polnareff-chan.
>>336641574
I don't give a shit about her. Can i date him?
>>336643569
It reminds me of Mentaiko and Blackmonkey. Mentaiko because there's a blonde guy in his doujins who look like him, and Blackmonkey who literally has a ginger ryuji with same hairstyle, upbeat personality and everything.
>ann dates Naruto
>You can cuck him and fuck ann
>then dump her for frenchy/hacker/bicker harem
how come everyone on /v/ plays the cuck card instead of being the one doing the cucking
>>336641574
I hope she's actually dating Naruto, I hate how the entire world revolves around you in p4.
>>336643823
No, this is a Japanese game. But there are other qts.
>>336643785
they look blandin every game.
>>336643823
>>336643692
>>336643379
My brothers.
>motorcycle riding Punching girl with short hair
You always know how to get me, Atlus.
Ryuji looks cool I wouldn't mind if Ann is dating himSince I already have Futaba-chan
>>336641574
>>336642129
>>336642137
>the girl I was gonna go after is already with another guy and he actually seemed like a bro
Sorry man but I guess I have to cuck you.
>>336642010
>>336641574
They are siblings
>>336641574
Yeah OP look at that slut getting in between you and your bro, fuck all women gay option when?
>>336643895
>No, this is a Japanese game.
So is Fire Emblem, and that game lets me be a faggot.
>>336643972
Are you sure? If so that'd make me feel better about destroying her puss puss
>>336643940
How often do you think she bathes?
>>336643895
>Chick spazzing out
>Suddenly mask out of nowhere
Wait did I miss something? Do masks just spontaneously appear on people in this game?
>>336643872
That's expected from a board filled with beta manchildren
Of course they project on the cucked, not on the cucker.
>>336644084
Yes. They rip them off to summon their purse owners.
>>336643785
>important characters must have stupid hair color or just look outstanding in general
Daily reminder that Futaba Sakura is a cum loving NEET slut.
>>336643895
You do know there were a gay route in Persona 2
Maybe that's the reason she is so comfortable with him
I mean, look at this shirt
>>336644213
>NEET
>slut
>>336643872
>Circle of friends
>Sleeping with each other
That's not how it works. She would be labeled as a ho and excluded from anything remotely fun.
>>336644154
>We go from shooting oneself in the head, to a card falling out of the sky, to putting a mask on only to pull it off, then put it back on to do it again
The more I think about it the dumber it sounds.
>>336644250
>edit
>>336644250
Boys can't love boys!
>>336643617
Seconded. For me, one of the weakest parts of P4 was that the characters didn't really have their own story arcs outside of the social links.
I see the appeal of wanting to make all of the main characters the social links, but they should really have some developed interest in the group outside of their connection to protagonist-kun.
Why are the guys so generic? They look like fucking NPCs.
>>336644394
Their pre-boss fight sequences that take up the dungeon don't count as story arcs?
>>336644423
Because they don't need outlandish designs since they compensate it with good characterization.
>>336643617
This although P4 had some interactions like Yosuke-Teddie comic relief duo
But yeah, it was mostly MC center of the universe. It would be nice and only add to character development
>>336644476
Once you get them as party members it would've been nice to see them evolve a bit.
>>336644001
In the white hoodie.
>>336643823
I don't understand why people think this. They're far more distinct than the girls from 3 and 4.
>>336643689
they all look better than the P4 girls.
>>336643042
Come on, she's part American. 'Merican's give 0 fucks about being formal.
>>336644250
Please be bangableplease be bangable
>>336643042
Their eyes are rolled upward in an expression of utter surprise.
>>336641574
What if there's an option to play as her instead of Potter? Like in PQ where the one you're not controlling becomes a party member.
That would be interesting.
>>336643972
Well I find this rather INCESTING
>>336644350
Keep telling into yourself but you know what the truth holds
>>336641574
yo that's not cool to call your bro's gf man
>>336644860
>Trump's America
>>336644942
No!
>>336644952
>She isn't a fat disgusting slob that needs to wash her shit with a sponger in a stick
Yeah, she isn't american.
I'm a massive faggot and have never been interested in Persona

>>336644476
They're good for developing each character's introduction, but once their shadows are dealt with the issues that they conveyed aren't really brought up again throughout the main storyline.
Kanji and Chie were probably my favorite characters of the group, but if they and their boss fights were cut out, the story wouldn't be hugely affected.
>>336645143
Emancipation
>>336643617
Besides their futures, we really don't get too much into the P4 cast's lives. P3 is pretty much the kids doing their business and then getting back into their lives but we see the cast bonding and hanging out with each other as they get closer. It's nice being the center of attention but it really hurts the characters when their only interest is the MC.
>>336641574

>>336645565
What if the detective guy has a wrestling mask?
>>336645565
Anne is Panther and Bike-chan is Queen.
>>336645575
jesus that body
>>336643042
>>336644818
It's a shoujo manga thing you retards
>>336644314
The mask analogy makes the most sense thematically. A Persona in psychology is basically a character you play in social situations that differs from who you are behind closed doors, or with other people. Like a "mask" you wear to hide who you really are in varying social situations.
By removing the mask they're showing their true selves and letting go of or "releasing" their "Persona".

Again, having been "that guy," that is an indication of worse things. She lacks intimacy with her partner, or wants attention, etc.

>>336646138

>>336646174
They acted the same before they were dating people too, so I imagine that's just how they act.
>>336644314
They'll never top Suicide-kun's style of summoning.
>>336645978
She's not even touching him with any kind of loving semblance. More like "bro look at what who we brought out" thing.
>>336645997
>攻撃力と回復量が上がった!
Apparently switching like that increases attack power and healing effectiveness.
>>336644314
Actually the mask thing make more sense than the previous ones
>>336646246
They must be the outlier or the exception man.
>>336644180
They don't need stupid hair colors, they need to not look like the scraps of older games' rejected designs.
>>336643042
It's a comical trope
>>336646249

Demographic genre*
As in the shows are bunched together based on their intended demographic. Just "demographic" is probably a better term, but the context I used made it seem too broad.
>>336641574
Why was she wearing a towel over her face? Was she undergoing surgery?
>>336646343
how would you have them? throw out a few suggestions about how they should look.
>>336646601
She was probably embarrassed or it was some guessing game.
>>336646579
No, it's Arsene Lupin, a French literary character which Lupin III is inspired by.
>>336646504
>Triple AAA
Damn, that's an AAAAAAAAA game
>>336646384
It did its job then. It's not like you're never going to get tired of a game mechanic but it makes a strong impression at the beginning.
>>336641574
What are the three guys so shocked about?
>>336646504
Seriously though why can't Atlus get a better anime studio to do its cutscenes? If something like Fate can get Shaft then I don't see why Persona can't do the same.
>>336645997
Huh? Why are they fighting demons like jack frost? iirc you never fight against jack frost in p3/p4

>>336641574

>>336647093
Will those lolis bully Potter-kun? That knife looks dangerous
>>336646874
It's wierd. The best piece of animated work I've seen in a Persona game (not including the P3 Movies) is the intro to the PSP version of P2EP. Fucking Meguro just knows, man can write good music and can pick damn good animation studios to animate scenes when given the chance to direct.
>>336647039
It will be on PS3 too
so we can swap party members out now?

>>336643895
Is she transforming into the Ultimate Lifeform?
>>336646874
You'd think a flagship series is going to be able to t least get a good studio to animate some parts. Dunno why they just don't do it. Splurge a little will ya.
>>336646831
AAA doesn't mean good. just a big budget. really big. this was probably medium.
>>336647431
sorry. they're too big for their britches now.
>>336643689
The scene where Yosuke forced Chie and Yukiko to wear the swimsuits that he brought was uncool territory though. Like nigga you have only 3 friends and they are 2 of them.
>>336646138
>shoujo
>consistently good
The only thing "consistent" about shoujo is that 90% of them revolve around the relationship between a very bland girl and an asshole that she likes for some fucking insane reason.

they're doing the actual P5 anime,
so ... probably?

>>336647701
Yousuke had his dickish moments.
Granted, so did the girls. Going postal when the guys showed up after they stayed in the bathing area past their time, and signing everyone up for that psychotic beauty contest.
It bothered me whenever MC and Kanji had to go down for the stupid things that Yousuke did.
>>336641574
Mark my words you fucking console losers. You hear me right now? Loud and clear? Well good, you better listen the fuck up.
I did NOT spend $600 on my GTX 980, another $300 on my overclocked i7 @ 4.10ghz, 16 gigs of ram, and deluxe cooling systems to keep this beast at proper temperatures to NOT fucking play Persona 5. You hear me you little faggots? I have spent WELL over $1000 on my gaming rig, and I WILL play Persona 5 on it one way or another. I abhor, I hate, I LOATHE the idea of even thinking of some cheap shitty console from Sony being allowed even 30 yards from my basement. If I need to make a fortress with my pizza boxes, Big Mac boxes, and liters upon liters of piss bottles to keep that shitty underpowered piece of plastic toy away from my very being and my beautiful prized possession (that's my PC in case you didn't know, fucking low IQ peasants), then so be it.
Atlus, I will ask nicely once more. You WILL port Persona 5 to the PC platform via Steam, it WILL obliterate the console version, and I WILL pirate it just to spite you dumb fucking slant eyed gooks for daring to even spite us; the proud and powerful PC master race.
It would actually kill some of you if one of the female characters was already in a relationship and was just off limits.
Holy fuck being a writer must be suffering, you have to tiptoe on glass to avoid pissing off turbodorks who fall in love with anime girls.
>>336642129
Implying I'm not cheering on the Yukari and Junpei of 5.
>>336641574
It's possible that Atlus could be adding in a a system where if you don't become intimate with a character by X day, then they will find another significant other.
>>336649078
The writer isn't tiptoe-ing, he's catering specifically to that audience. He's not forced into it. There are several Japanese games where female characters are already in a relationship.
>>336645575
>>336648839
Pea Sea Mustard Rash
>>336649078
what's the appeal of that? there's already countless media where that's the case. I thought "dating" and socializing were the main draw of this series.
>>336648839
lol look at this faggot
You can pay tons of cash on your overexpensive facebook machine but that doesn't change the fact that Atlus doesn't do PC games. They were always console/portable.
If you actually wasted all this money on a pc just to play P5 you are a cringy loser that only deserve it.
>>336647809
most of /v/ is landwhales. it's understandable they'd be into it.
>>336649281
I'm an advocate for being able to play the wingman.
Unless it's like that one weirdo from P3 who keeps bugging you to try and help him hook up with your teacher.
http://personacentral.com/atlus-usa-e3-2016-booth-feature-persona-5-shin-megami-tensei-iv-apocalypse/
>>336649675
Would p3 be any worse if for example Aki and mitsuru developed a relationship over the course of the game?
I think fleshing out characters other than the mc and giving characters lives outside of the mc makes for a more memorable game.
Kanji could have dated Naoto in 4 as well for example.
The game gives you plenty of waifubait the world won't end if one or two are off limits.
>>336649078
The last game had someone who was married but literally no one talks about her
I wonder if they'll bother having the relationships change anything in the main story for P5.
I don't need a big animated cutscene or anything, but some story dialogue actually acknowledging who you've spent time with and/or romanced would be nice.
>>336649961
Those characters all already have fleshed out characters and lives outside the MC. Being in a relationship doesn't make a character more developed than being single.
>>336648839
Someone tell me this is bait.
Nobody in this world is this kind of retarded.
Hahahahahahahaha

Homosexuality isn't right.
What if there were no relationships, or parameters to raise?
What if the way of strengthening personas was completely different but more integrated into the story?
>>336650483
Is this a good idea /v/?
>>336650483
That would be nice
and interesting.
>>336650483
Be more specific
>>336650483
>no relationships
Japan fans will literally bomb Atlus HQ
>>336650197
Kanji's attraction to Naoto just kind of falls off the radar because she needs to be fuckable.
Akihiko and Mitsuru's tension just kind of disappears as well. I thought it was hinting at a relationship there when Aki talks about his weakness being Mitsuru's element etc.
Look I'm not saying every character needs to pair off, but I wouldn't mind seeing a bit of it here or there.
>>336650483
One of the first things they did when P5 was announced was confirm that there is going to be something similar to the social link system.
>>336650727
>Akihiko and Mitsuru's tension
THERE ARE NONE
MITSURU EVEN TOLD YOU IN ONE SCENE HE"S JUST A FRIEND
>>336650483
You mean based on what the player does and/or chooses outside of social links?
Or like in P3, where the characters leveled up their Persona on their own based on where they were at emotionally?
>>336642129
I think I read somewhere they are very close friends to the point where they have a brother/sister like relationship. I don't remember where I herd this and I might be wrong so keep that in mind
>>336650761
So then the question is, What's different?

>>336650779
I appreciate that you shifted that whole thing instead of caps locking it. That's real passion. I think aki has feelings for her at least.

Kanji's attraction to Naoto was purely physical AND one-sided too.
There was not romantic tension between Akihiko and Mitsuru, they are purely professional.
Junpei did have Chidori.
>>336650952
Ending was garbage, yeah. Read the mangu if you want it to continue. Really pretty good.
>>336650967
Aki doesn't even likes women
>>336644618
> what are social link?
>>336644250
>There was a gay route in 2
>Nothing in 3 or 4
Japan is going backwards as a society.
>>336650103
That's one of the things I'm hoping P5 does. Even if the changes are only at the level of having exclusive events happen if you stay faithful to one girl, acknowledging the player's choices more in the main story would be nice.
>>336649961
well they sort of already did it femc route with junpei and what's her face.
>>336650483
you mean just automatically like through a cutscene? sure. only reason they even had s links to begin with was to mitigate some of the need to grind traditionally, because that's just not fun unless you're autistic.
>>336651025
Yeah I really liked Junpei's arc.
It doesn't specifically have to be romantic but I'd like to see more interaction between team members in 5.
>>336649961
> Kanji
> dating Naoto
Holy fuck. That's literally the dumbest shit. The only off brand hook up that could have worked in P4 is Yosuke and Chie in a shitty tsundere odd couple relationship.
You would have had to butcher Naoto's character worse than the s.link did to get her to actually want to shag Kanji.
>>336644250
>You do know there were a gay route in Persona 2
The 'gay' route in Persona 2 was a joke answer to a mock question. Tatsuya was not interesting in fucking Jun, even if Jun was vice versa.
Homos blow everything out of proportion to fit their degenerate mental illness.
Does anyone have screens of the girl that looks like short-haired Ai?
>>336651372
It was just an example, realistically I think she probably should have just been undatable. I can't really see her going from I don't want to be a girl to I'll be a girl if it's for you senpai-kun-sama that quickly. But whatever.
Persona always seemed more like a VN than a game to me.
Just okatu pandering waifugame #5. Hopefully this one wont have a garbage ass soundtrack like the rest.
>>336651665
That's because you, like all the tumblr people, missed the point of Naoto's dungeon.
She was blaming her gender for a problem that was age related. It had nothing to do with being a girl, it was always about the fact that she is a child.
>>336651708
This is some weak bait anon, you should put more effort into it.Although I agree with the VN thing.
>>336651827
no it did. girsl in japan are discriminated against. ever see midnight sleazy train? they get molested all the time in public and no one even cares.
>>336651827
I disagree, I think both were factors.
>>336645143
constipation
>>336652168
You can think that if you want, but you would be wrong. The game outright states in its consistent beating you over the head in both her dungeon conclusion and s.link that it was her age that was the source of her problems, and because age is something she can't control she blamed her gender for it.

Proclamation
This is the game that'll finally make me buy a PS4
>>336644314
I've always been curious as to how that never got explained. I understand they moved away from P3's summoning due to the obvious suicide references, but it would've been nice to see in the fighting games if they at least talked about it amongst the cast:
>"You do WHAT to summon your persona?"
>"Fighting shadows was a little bit different in our younger days. You guys got it easy."
>>336652694
Then the Persona 1 and 2 cast shows up and calls the Persona 3 cast a bunch of pussies.
