Am I right in saying that livestream event starts at 9:30pm japanese time?

Yes, it says:

21:30 JST (UTC+9) is e.g. 14:30 CEST (UTC+2) and 5:30 PDT (UTC-7).

Noooo, I think I'm flying to Nagasaki that day T_T

150 minutes of trolling incoming.
 
I guess this new bit of info rules out the possibility of Famitsu or Dengeki Playstation getting a scoop on it.

That was never going to happen simply because of the time the countdown ends at. It ends on a Thursday evening while Famitsu would be out hours beforehand, plus Atlus knows about magazine leaks like any other game company so that would spoil the surprise days before.
 
I found this in the code what does this mean. げ㡣㒫㠚5 蒁㵠㬁㣁㣠㫣㚦げ㣁邆偒ﬣ"

I'm pretty sure it's gibberish, maybe some encrypted message.

Cue people starting to watch at 19:00 JST and complaining for two and a half hours that there's nothing going on.

There's some Chinese, some Japanese and a... Hebrew letter?

Could be a code or just a web monkey fucking with us.

Knowing Atlus they could tell the release date and show a new trailer at 19:00, and the main event is a reveal how Morgana was actually Teddie all along.
 
I hope just like SE someone leak the release date early by mistake.

GameSpot don't dissapoint me.
 
It's weird for me to hear Uncovered comparisons when Atlus has been doing this kind of thing specifically for Persona 5 several times since November 24, 2013.

-delayed for another 10 years
 
I'm guessing P5 gets delayed 'till late this year, thus moving the US release to 2017. 

However, Atlus announces the imminent release of HD PerSona4 to tide us over until then.
 
At least we got the wonderful Catherine from the core team during this long wait!

Hashino's involvement is why I am looking forward to P5. He usually has something to say with his stories and Soejima usually knows how to make his messages visually appealing.
