Wow, what a garbage game

I hope she's a chestlet and not some titty monster in disguise.
She's actually a trap, so it's okay.

Other than a woman being smart, what exactly is wrong with that?
Futaba is easily the worst girl. She doesn't even feel like she belongs in the same game as the others.
YOU'RE A SQUID NOW

>>338010417
There can never be a hobby grade programmer in fiction.
They're always weirdo prodigy's. She can't possible have her hacking powers amplified by her Persona. No she's inhumanly good at it even without it while also being a stinky hikki.
I hope she's called 4chan in the dub
>>338010020
Literally Otaku bait. What anime cliche character will Persona shit out next?
>>338010856
Anne is our girl.
>>338010914
Are you retarded or something?
>>338010020
Is she actually a boy?
I had hopes this game was going back to the tone of the first 3 games, but this is just Persona 4 with guns and demons.

Is umaru the best anime girl of our generation?

>>338011053
Of course, why would a girl that attractive be a NEET?
>>338010908
>What anime cliche character will Persona shit out next?
I bet it will be rich heir of some big corporation who even got their own island, and she will invite you and others classmates for the summer vacation there
>>338010497I redesigned my inkling to look like her after her design was released.
>>338010856
Just like Snowchild, Bear and Splendidly Stout Son Dojima

Not like it had to be anything else.
>>338011112
It means she doesn't show up to school but is still registered. They did the same thing with Shinjiro in Persona 3.
>people are bothered by futaba
>p3 had fukka hack a mega corporation with out a problem
Stick with yukari if you want realistic characters.
SMELLY

And this is why you get your glasses fitted by an optometrist.
>>338011171
They didn't own that island. They owned a summer home on it. They chose to go to that island in particular precisely because Mitsuru's father happened to be there at the time.
>>338011074

That's stupid. At least make it something like "she would be a first-year in high school, but due to an incident yadda yadda, she no longer attends school."

>>338011321
You can word it like that but it's still a school girl hacking a million dollar corporation. Either way, I don't why anime shit in an jrpg is bothering people.
YOU'RE NOT LIVING YOUR LIFE CORRECTLY!!!
>>338011527
>this is the face of a mary sue
>>338011462
Maybe they're implying that she will start attending school again later in the game.
>>338011121
Yes
>>338010020
Shit design. Shit characterization. Shit everything. I bet she'll have a shit, grating, old grandma style voice. Honestly, her presence alone is enough to motivate me to not get the game at all. Especially with how fucking retarded she looks here >>338010381
What does her poop smell like?
>>338011612
That's not really something that matters in a promotional character description.
Best girl is always unattainable.
>girl that literally only drops her guard around you and is also nerdy like you
anime was factually a mistake
>>338011910
Why are you so bothered by the description, then?
>>338010381
Cute but for fuck's sake those glasses are huge.
Then again, that's more space for semen to land on-BEST GIRL!!!
>>338010816
Hobby grade programmers don't get to be named characters.
>>338011874

>>338012038
>Plays weeb games

>>338012164
Not bothered, it's just written weirdly. And someone got paid for it.
>>338012326
Do you think she ever clogged her toilet with a giant stinky poop and gets embarrassed over the fact?
Since Ann is reserved by Naruto-kun there's only three girls left. I don't really like Haru all that much so the real choice is between Futaba and Makoto and both are really top tier. I was worried about P5 cast but looks like it's fine.
>>338012538
Maybe they are just siblings
>>338012538
Anne is MINE.
>>338010020

>>338012632

>>338012803
I'm fine with spitroasting her.
Which girl will make the best jokes? its the most important criteria
>>338010020
Feels like everyone in 5 besides your two loser friends is either super rich or super talented. Reminds me of Persona 2 but not in a good way.

>>338012982

>>338013170
But he's a boy
Y'all are wrong. Best girl is obviously pic related
What's the disgusting is that she is an obvious ripoff of that hacker neet girl from Valvrape the Penetrator. They even got Aoi Yuki to voice her as well. Her design is also off putting to me. I prefer Anne and Makoto so far.
>>338011171
oh for fuck sake of course they are going to pull that fucking cliche. I hate it when they have one character be rich just for plot device reasons.
>>338014174
>>338011171
Haru is already confirmed for rich heiress of a fast food company iirc
>>338010554
Yeah and portraits too what the fuck, I thought they were going full Catherine
>>338011171
Yeah it's not like Persona 1 had a rich character, or Persona 2, or Persona 3.
Actually I don't think 4 did. How much Moolah does Rise make?
>>338010020
So wait .. is she lovers? Because she's basically the opposite of Potter-kun. He's a prisoner hell bent on escape and she's a shut in that comes to light with.... friends.
>>338015943
She's obviously Hermit.
From pic was hoping that it was franken fran.

>>338020480
I want to shove burgers up her snatch.
Wish they would actually write a main character at some point isntead of making a shitty self insert vehicle.
>>338010020
I see Persona is still as cringey and badly written as ever. Someone needs to put this shit down so it can stop sullying the SMT name.
>>338020565
What SMT name? Not like there's any other SMT games coming out.
>>338020545
Vincent was great

>>338020545
2 was interesting with this, since Tatsuya was the protag in IS yet a party character in EP so you got to view his actions in both a first person and a third person perspective.
>>338020565
>Young genius programmer characters are sullying the SMT name.
HACK YOU!
>>338020845
tatsuya had more personality than the rest of the protagonists even in IS.
i just wish they'd give the main character a name again at least
>Pandering to the otaku crowd this much
Will this ever stop?
>>338020565
>so it can stop sullying the SMT name.
That implies there's any reason for it to have a good name to begin with.
>>338010020
She sounds less and less like a real person the more I read that. I can't really understand playing a game about developing relationships with characters when they seem that goofy and outlandish.
>>338021106
you seem to imply they're real in the first place
>tfw the best girl is ugly as sin
life is suffering
>>338021186
She might not be real, but well-written, engaging characters tend to feel like believable human beings. A quirky or gimmicky character is fine for some things, but not when your character is trying to develop a meaningful relationship with them.
>>338020996
Why would they stop pandering to their main audience?
>>338021669
>meaningful relationship
wait what
I thought social links are for exp bonuses
>>338021669
How can you determine she's well written just from a bio? It could've been just as easy to dismiss Mitsuru as a mary-sue because she was a class president who had excellent grades and was wealthy due to her company connections.
You could argue that the very nature of the Persona series is not to take things at face value. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt until we find out more.
>fufufu...I look forward to going to Akiba together next time!
What did they meant by this?
>>338022289
>It could've been just as easy to dismiss Mitsuru as a mary-sue because she was a class president who had excellent grades and was wealthy due to her company connections.
You don't know that mary-sue means
Yes Mitsuru was shitty written character
>>338022289
Mitsuru is fanfiction tier trash.
>>338022289
Mitsuru is a horrible character. I'd say she even worse than the BAZINGA girl in OP pic.

I can't say for sure, but that entire bio is a series of red flags.

Child prodigy is a pretty boring character trait. It's mostly just a convenient excuse that allows for a cast of young kids who are more competent than any adults.
>after a certain incident
Hm I wonder what their character arc will focus on
>When she's alone with the protagonist, she behaves normally, but when she's around others-
This seems like a lazy way to have her be an appealing social link to the MC, but also have her be a quirky shut-in social outcast. If she were socially awkward around everyone, including the MC, players might be less inclined to hang out with her, even if it might make for more interesting character development. But having her be shy/awkward around everyone BUT you lets her retain her "shy, nerd girl" status. Just seems weird and convenient.
>>338023238
Just because you're anti-social or even a NEET doesn't mean you have to look like shit.

Daily reminder that waifushit is a cancer that has ruined more game series than feminists ever have, and should be resisted. Autistic beta waifufags will kick and scream and defend ALL waifushit no matter how bad things get, no matter how terrible the games. If it gets their dick hard: it's great. It doesn't matter to them how fucking awful the game is. They're exactly like furries who will hand over $100 for some piece of shit drawing just because it tickles their fantasies.
Remember, the future these NEETS want is a world full of Senran Kaguras. Dogshit games that get their dicks hard. These people need to go back to their hentai games and leave mainstream vidya alone.
People only interested in a videogame for a waifu, and willing to drop it because of a threat to the waifu content? Why the fuck should these people be catered to when they don't give a shit about the actual GAME? How is this any different to some idiot SJW who will only consider buying a game if it features a gay romance, and will then abandon it the moment it doesn't fall completely in line with what they needed to get their approval? Both waifufags and feminists don't give a shit about anything beyond being pandered to and they both need to fuck off.
>>338023536
Yeah, it was pretty obvious you didn't know what you were talking about.
>>338023553
that's how I dress and I'm a shut-in
>>338023393
Kinda does, actually. She's not just wearing clothes, she's wearing an outfit. That's a lot of thought to put into something you're going to wear while sitting at home on your computer.
Any other game with shut in cute girls? I have a hard time of finding one

wew lad, almost as bad as that anime that was entirely about a "NEET" detective who was somehow "not employed" while being gainfully employed as a detective.
She's a 15 year old girl and she only just became a NEET recently, why do you guys think she'd have shitty clothes?
I really just want to sniff her stinky NEET asshole.
>>338024002
Welcome to the NHK seems to be the only somewhat believeable presentation of a hikikomori NEET. Although it's a little dramatized and somewhat waifubait with Misaki.
At least the MC is an actual failure
>he fell for the "NEETs are stinky" meme
I leave my apartment once a month and I still shower twice a day and groom myself, and I'm a guy. There's no reason a girl would be any less clean.
>>338024061
Read the book, less drama and waifu bullshit
I actually don't see a problem
Persona 3 was great despite having characters like Junpei and Aigis
>>338024250
Women are notoriously gross when not trying to specifically look good. There is zero reason to believe that a teenage girl who stays shut in her room all day would be showering twice a day.
>>338024250
actually girl can be really gross even if they are not shut in
pc when
>>338024061
NHK is heavily dramatized and Satou is an extreme case, most shut-ins are just introverted people. It's not uncommon to find bedroom programmers and other people who work from home these days.

P5 characters almost as bad as p4 ones
>>338025920
So it is the p3 kiddies then. Ha ha
Yeah okay champ, you go on pretending robots, dog, Ken, Mitsuru and the oh so memorable Fuuka are amazing characters like the shit eating retard you are. Only Yukari and Junpei were even memorable and tolerable.

Nice video game example retard
Honestly the last trailer disgusted me so heavy that I don't ever care about this game anymore.
I was hoping for some at least little more serious setting and story and instead we got
>these evil adult are not living their lives correctly, we, 16 years old mary sues know exactly, what they should do, se we need to brainwash them!
>>338028291
>If you don't like teenagers then persona isn't the series for you at all...

No, that's your bro's girl. Besides, you get the Motorcycle Girl who's the true best girl because she has the thickest ass.
>>338028291
Last trailer didn't disgust me, but yeah kinda killed all possibly hype I had for this game
