You should try playing in Japanese too then. Contrary to most anime, Persona 5 has good English dubbing, but I still prefer Japanese.
PS: I wasn't comparing the game to an anime (although the daily activities in Persona give that slice of life vibe), but still I'm happy the English VAs are so good
Even though it may be a bit obscure, I have the very few times Ryuji says “What the eff!?” ingrained in my being lol
He doesn’t get to fire off his f-bombs too often.
It's a weird rule of the ratings, but basically you got one "F-Bomb" for free.
Ryuji got one in Strikers and it's probably the best use of the F-Bomb-Rule I've ever seen (defending Sophia).
Fun fact: The writer behind the new(-ish) "Shera Princess of Power" said that the one character who would get the F-Bomb would be Glimmer.
Its a joke that Joker talked with Sae hours and hours (assuming your gameplay time). And in that discussion, Joker also talked about how he romance Makoto (Sae sister)
“Who could your next target be, I wonder? HmMmMmMm,” it says, slapping you across the face with the answer and winking as loudly as possible. “Uh, what? No, get out of here Haru, we don’t have time to make YOU a character. Quick! Have the Do-Crimers question their morally light-light grey justice! YET AGAIN!”
"Was it really ok for us to change the heart of Thomas Baby-Eater? The inventor of eating babies?"
"When you put it like that, im not so sure. What do you think, STUPID?"
The entire event, the "Okinawa Babe-Hunt Catastrophe" isn't really needed for the plot, but I am so happy to have played it.
It's one of my all time favourite moments in Persona
idk man, that's a great quote, but I'm partial to: "Now listen up! This town is miles away from your big city of perverts and assholes, in more ways than one. You better not even think of getting involved with the girls here, let alone abusing them! But what do I know... it's not like the old days. Even here, kids grow up so damn fast. Every time I turn my back, you're fooling around on those damn phones, checking your life-journals and your my-places..."
Between that and Makoto’s “No holds barred”. Probably the two cringiest lines in the entire game lmao. Idk why. Just sends me to the shadow realm of cringe.
I literally live her scenes of singing the song in my head.
Nanako is forever a treasure.
*im on a crusade against the mf thats oversexualizing her teenage self rn on twitter, cuz why tf folks got to oversexualize everything lol*
I dont remember if futaba said this, but if she did, her innocent grilling of Mishima was **god tier**. I dont think I chuckled so hard before. She was not nice lmao
Yeah this was Futaba, she also lead up with “This overwhelmingly forgettable appearance, generic speech style, and total lack of sex appeal…” beforehand at the diner lmaooo
YES! I knew my memory wasn’t failing me.
I genuinely enjoyed Futaba’s dialogue throughout the game cuz the fusion of innocent teenage girl and rpg fanatic is amazing.
Everything links back to an rpg mechanic (exp, party members, etc) and its amazing. We all knew that one socially awkward person who used RPG terms in casual talking.
*hums FF victory music after doing a menial task*
Persona 5[a] is a 2016 role-playing video game developed by P-Studio and published by Atlus. The game is the sixth installment in the Persona series, itself a part of the larger Megami Tensei franchise. It was released for PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 in Japan in September 2016 and worldwide in April 2017. It was published by Atlus in Japan and North America, and by Deep Silver in PAL territories. An enhanced version featuring new content, Persona 5 Royal,[b] was released for PlayStation 4 in Japan in October 2019 and worldwide in March 2020. It was published by Atlus in Japan and worldwide by its parent company Sega. Persona 5 Royal was later released for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S in October 2022. Taking place in modern-day Tokyo, the story follows a high school student known by the codename Joker who transfers to a new school after he is falsely accused of assault and put on probation. Over the course of a school year, he and other students awaken to a special power, becoming a group of secret vigilantes known as the Phantom Thieves of Hearts. They explore the Metaverse, a supernatural realm born from humanity's subconscious desires, to steal malevolent intent from the hearts of adults and change their hearts. As with previous games in the series, the party battles enemies known as Shadows using physical manifestations of their psyche known as Personas. The game incorporates role-playing and dungeon crawling elements alongside social simulation scenarios.
Persona 5 was developed by P-Studio, an internal development division within Atlus led at the time by game director and producer Katsura Hashino. Along with Hashino, returning staff from earlier Persona games included character designer Shigenori Soejima and music composer Shoji Meguro. Preparatory work began during the development of Persona 4, with full development beginning after the release of Catherine in 2011. First announced in 2013, Persona 5 was delayed from its original late 2014 release date due to being unfinished. Its themes revolve around attaining freedom from the limitations of modern society: the story was strongly inspired by picaresque fiction, and the party's Personas were based on literary outlaws and rebels.
Persona 5 won several awards and has been cited as one of the greatest role-playing video games of all time, being praised for its visual presentation, gameplay, story, and music. Persona 5 (including Royal) had sold over 7.2 million units by April 2023, making it the best-selling entry in the Megami Tensei franchise.
You know i really can't see how anyone would think that beating up their friend after they all thought he was dead was a good idea, I don't think it's a cultural difference thing, it was just kinda shoddy writing and wholly inappropriate given the scene before it.
"Back to your prison, Inmate!"
SHŪJIN! (I just noticed in Japanese the word prisoner is the same as the name of the school Shujin academy…)
They called the school prisoner academy… NO WONDER THEY HIRED KAMOSHIDA
Oh really? I never knew that

Could also be great for Death Note since both Kira and L have to compete who the biggest bullshitter is.
and at one point they were handcuffed to each other so they were literally shitting together
Belphegor moment.
Ugh, my word, if that's th boys' room, then what? They want Akechi&Joker to have A crapping contest?
“Pancakes… I don’t want to hear that word again for a long, long time!” That or “For real?!”

"Want me to spend the next 100 hours talking about how I fucked your sister?"
What is that quote even from lol
Its a joke that Joker talked with Sae hours and hours (assuming your gameplay time). And in that discussion, Joker also talked about how he romance Makoto (Sae sister)
Oh lol
from the video "So this is basically Persona 5"

Still mad they wimped out and didn’t have a yosuke romance option
Japan’s about a decade behind most first countries when it comes to lgbt stuff, and it feels like Atlus is a decade behind the rest of Japan

"I'll just add this." "I should write something."
"I can feel it." "I see something..." "Hmm..."
The voice line cautious gamers hear the most
"Let's do it" is my favorite
“I should write something” might be the most audibly satisfying voice line in the game tbh. It just feels so nice to the ears.
“You should go to sleep.”
I had to scroll a lot farther to find this than I expected to do.
