Aki needs none of which you're hoping for. I'd go for stronger oki/mixup with some slight damage nerfs in P4A2. If you really think Akihiko isn't viable in P4A, I'll play you right now and change your mind

nevermind, looks like some people at dustloop figured out what yukari is wearing.

Believe me. You won't change his mind. This is the same TheSeks who let people throw Yukiko's 2B at him all day, did nothing to stop it, and proceeded to go complain in the OT about how weak Akihiko was when he didn't even try.

Notice the logo in the upper left? Is Persona 4 Arena: Climax the title?
Oh nice, hadn't noticed that.

Apparently she's an actress/model on a Featherman tv show. That's what they said on IRC.

Yep. All I really would ask for.
It'd be nice to get some fancy shit like armor or something, but something to stack the deck a little more once I've got guys on the ropes is more than enough. You have to work way too hard to set people up and get in close just to get into a 50/50.

I guess the list of region-locked PS3 games may need updating if Atlus hasn't learned its lesson.

The bloooooooooow up
Honestly, I don't care what they do to Akihiko. As long as they don't pummel his damage in the ground, whatever. I'm not even really that salty about the Persona card thing.
Brosuke, I've missed you!

If nothing else, I PROMISE they've learned their lesson.

Akihiko damage was WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY too high. It made matches super random. I rather they improve his overall game and nerf his damage. It was stupid that I would outplay him then he would risk a gamble get in and I get hit twice and die in like 10 seconds.
Make his neutral game better, tone his damage down.
I guess they forgot how popular P4A was in the arcades

Eh, I can *sort of* agree to that, but I would need to thinkmore about changes, I guess. That's sort of what I liked about him though. He gets a few big hits and you're done, not too different from big Mitsuru combos
Shadow Yosuke spotted.
Even in shadow form, he's still inferior to Junpei

mitsuru was just pure stupid. Good neutral + good damage + good mixup.
The problem with current akihiko is that he is just so polar. It makes balancing him really hard.
lol screw that. akihiko only had two ways to start his combos up reliably. if you get hit by that no-range hook, you deserve whatever happens next
damn near everything akihiko does is a gamble. especially against yukiko lol

Shadow Junpei sounds like some greatness.
Kinda bummed that there's no Shadow Shadow Labrys or Shadow Elizabeth, but I'll live.

Yeah, I can totally tell that. But to me (and I'm probably wrong, this is just how I play him) is to rely on reads, you get a few good reads and you get good damage. And overall he's a powerful character, maybe a slight damage nerf but not into the dust or anything.
Thanks, Levito.
Thank you all for these.
For whatever reason, I hadn't heard that they continued the story in P4 Arena. I guess I'll go pick it up some time.

Oh HELL YES! Always wished Junpei and Yukari were in the first.
I actually took this as semi-confirmation of the longstanding theory that Elizabeth and her siblings are already Shadows.
Speaking of, has anything been said about Mitsuru as of yet? As a Liz player that was the worst =(

Has a new confusion move. That is all at this stage.
@JiyunaJP: Chie now has a Lunge Punch like Yun, she can do it after her Hop Kicks. EX version wall bounces and she can combo. She looks slower

Shadow Elizabeth sounds broken since the Shadows in this game have a mode that allows them to have unlimited sp for a small amount of time.
too much steak?

Beating someone with a character isn't really going to change someone's mind, bro. The only thing that will accomplish is the fact that you beat him.
