HYPE LEVELS ARE SO HIGH and definitely agree that this is the best main character-kun design. The whole art style of the game is honestly the best in the series to date in my opinion. Seriously can't wait to share this magic bond with this game. GIVE US A RELEASE DATE ALREADY ATLUS!

Because Elizabeth and Theo were not anime archetypes.
I know you didn't ask, but my fiance is looking over my shoulder and making avatars for people LOL.
Supremely stylish.
I love this gif. Oh man.

Hmm who could it be? Kotaku doesn't know.
Interesting.. I'll send this to my investigation team
And? It's not like it's impossible that someone reading this thread could be playing through for the first time. People play more than just one series of games y'know.

You should marry that guy.
Oh boy... why would he feel the need for us to know that he doesn't care about P5? Because it's PlayStation exclusive perhaps?
I know! We are both so freakin excited for this. We are having a panic attack. You should see his face. omg omg omg
*breathes heavily*
I am engaged to him. I asked him to marry me buhahah.

As a big fan of JRPGs, I'm ashamed to say Persona is that one series I just never got around to playing (everyone has one of these, right...?). There really is no reason, just time and circumstance. I certainly heard all the praise and had no reason to doubt any of it, but I was always playing something else or didn't otherwise have the time.
That said, this trailer has now skyrocketed Persona 5 toward the top of my most-anticipated list. It really does look terrific.

P3P took me somewhere around a year and a half to get through as I found the gameplay insanely repetitive, and yet I ended up beating P4G within a month.
Overall I am really glad I stuck with P3P though, I would recommend sticking with it if you are a decent way in. The story definitely ramps up and going back to it after P4G would be super difficult.

He'd give it a 7.5 because of that bondage outfit anyways.

Dayum. Looks bloody good!
I'm of the ilk that feels P4 is mega overrated (mega), but this looks damn good! Hyped.

New MC's Persona looks neat. Better than Izanagi, but I still like Thanatos and Apollo more.
Go play Persona 4 before the game comes out. It'll hype you up even more and make the changes all the more meaningful
Damn, I'm digging the art style.
One thing that I absolutely LOVE that people are going to find weird is the menu design. Most games nowadays try to have the cleanest, most boring ass menus, going for a minimalist design. The problem is that they don't jell with the world that they're in, they feel cold and sterile while the rest of the environment design is all crazy.
Here, though, the menus are all colorful, off kilter, cell shading over the already cell shaded models in the background. They even show a little personality of the character that is being interacted with. I just love it, really shows they put effort in EVERY aspect of their game, not just the ones people are more likely to remember.
EDIT: This is what I'm talking about;
It's just goddamn gorgeous, oozes style from EVERY angle and orifice.

Looks amazing! Ah. Everything about it! The new engine too. Walking around the world. I can't handle.
It's everything I ever wanted in a new Persona game EEK!
The best part of Persona 3 is the ending section, though.
You guys must be super in love if you both like Persona that much lol

What are the chances of Naoto appearing in the game as the Zenigata to your Lupin?

What other game can showcase their menus in a trailer and still blow people's minds?
Supremely stylish.
That looks terrible imo. What happened to the simplicity? Seems like the menu for a AAA Batman game.

Yeah, who can forget the more grounded games with the magic canine, shooting yourself in the head to summon demons, white mage fox, eye glass wearing fetish, and the talking stuffed animal...
I'm always baffled by people who complain about things like this in any series, but persona especially... wow.

Gah!! I need help pushing through the game. Maybe I'm going to Tartarus too often?

Aaaand now I'm sad. Cheerio.
Uhh...yyyyeaah. Sure does look like this.
Hmm? Didn't say they weren't.....
But they weren't of the moe/loli variety which makes them automatically better. Leave that stuff in Idea Factory's crap and outside of Persona.

Game looks incredible. The more I watch the trailer, the more I feel I need to get a Persona fix. I have yet to touch my copy of Persona Q....I think its time?

Agreed, I preferred P3 and it looks like P5 is going to have a tone closer to that one, which is awesome.
The characters were grounded and you could relate to them. They acted like normal people instead of the wacky anime thing everyone does.
Which game? I really don't mind if you spoiler tag it.
That was my thought was well (Regarding simplicity... )
It feels a bit chaotic, specially with the main one (Red and white)
I agree. I don't get it either.
Now MY fear (and I'm not really afraid since P4 nailed this with its tonal shift from P3) is that the game will go a bit over its own head with its own themes and not be able to convey them properly. I'm of the camp that P3 didn't nail 'memento mori' whereas I felt P4 nailed the idea of people obfuscating truths around them.

I didn't ask but I'll be damned if I'm not taking it! Thanks
I know you didn't ask, but my fiance is looking over my shoulder and making avatars for people LOL.
Arthur is that you?!
We are! I've known him since we were 4 years old. To be clear, I didn't get engaged only because of Persona.
Okay that was the real reason. Shhhhh
I don't care about this newly spawned meme but I'm glad everyone else is excited about it.
Hmm who could it be? Kotaku doesn't know.
Did the writer's brain explode after watching the trailer?
There's a lot going on, but the interface is still as simple as ever.
