To those of you who are in Japan or will go to Japan for a long time, can you stand here at this line please...

Thank you...


....Now I want to punch each and every one of you silly.

Goddamn I am so Jelly. Going to Japan is one of the most desirable dreams in my life ever. Too bad it's just too goddamn expensive ;________;

You lucky bastards, all of you.

 

[Jintor]

affordability enters nothing into it! I am sure mountains of debt await me :|

 

[buddha0991]

I honestly don't care to go there really, rather go to Rome

 

[Sophia]

I would love to go to Japan myself, but honestly I'd love to go to any country and get away from where I currently live.

Real speak, I wouldn't mind getting in debt if it means I can go to Japan.

I honestly don't care to go there really, rather go to Rome

Now you're just pouring salt to the wound man, hahahaha.

 

[Tiu Neo]

I would love to go to Japan myself, but honestly I'd love to go to any country and get away from where I currently live.

...me too. Lived for a few months on a first world country, got spoiled

Dunno about Japan, though. It's expensive, and my Japanese knowledge is pratically null. Would be happier going to the United States or Europe, even if there's no Persona concerts and less merchandise ;_;

 

[Dantis]

I've never even left England, haha.

I'd rather go to Americaland than Japan, but if Persona 2014 happens, I'm going to see if I can find a way to go.

This is why I have never gone to Japan. Money has always been a major issue, and there was a time when I could have gotten a plane ticket for only $500, then the tsumani happened. :-(

I'm hoping to achieve my dream of living in Japan this year though!

Both of you should go to South Carolina, Alabama, Florida, and Georgia.

Rewatching the Animation.

While a lot of the still frames look fucking terrible, there's a surprising amount of decent animation work and little sight gags that work really well. At one point they're discussing finding info on one of the victims and there's a surprisingly funny little joke with Teddie attempting to eat their food

Seriously though, I hope P5 gets a fucking amazing studio to handle their anime scenes because even in Golden they looked kind of meh.

Golden was the P4 studio again I think.

I'd like them to get Studio 4C like they did for Catherine. They looked excellent.

Well, if it's any consideration I'm doing an Izanagi only NG+, so I won't be done for a bit.

 

[we.are.the.armada]

Ehhh I don't really care about fighting games.

But hey, you're always welcome out east.

With the growth of events and EVO, I think that we might see an EVO East Coast in 2014. We can hang out then for sure

I think that education and life experiences yield great gains as they mature with you, so any chance that you get to pursue the endeavor you should go for it. A low interest loan could be seen as an investment for your future, so that's always something to consider.

 

[buddha0991]

I forgot how Rise at the King's Game slips completely into her Lil Deville voice. Also sucks that I lost my furthest save, but starting over at Port Island isnt TOO bad.

 

[Sophia]

DILIGENCE. WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO ME!? Max out already! Gosh...

Bah, you won't be the last.

It will be me, considering I sitll haven't bought my Vita or the game, for that matter. Thank goodness I don't really care about being spoiled. Also, I need to get working in getting one ASAP

GUESS I'M GOING TO LOOK LIKE A HUGE JACKASS THEN WHEN I GO TO PERSONA LIVE 2014, HUH?

This is getting so incredibly difficult. What should I forget?

はい。。。そうです、ダンチスくん。

 

[Trigger]

I'd drop Maragion.

 

[Dantis]

はい。。。そうです、ダンチスくん。

Yes.

 

[Dresden]

This is getting so incredibly difficult. What should I forget?

Recarm. Revival skills are useless due to items completely supplanting it.

 

[Sophia]

This is getting so incredibly difficult. What should I forget?

Drop Recarm if you really want it, but I find Evade Ice is a bit useless given I have accessories for it.

Yes.

Did you actually understand that or did you just put it through Google translate?

 

[Dantis]

Neither, haha. What's it say?

 

[Splash Wave]

Recarm. Revival skills are useless due to items completely supplanting it.

Word, the fact that it's a revival spell made me feel like it's indispensable, but I guess it isn't.

 

[Sophia]

Something like "Yes... very much so, Dantis-kun"

 

[Dantis]

Something like "Yes... very much so, Dantis-kun"

Aaaaaah haha.

Do you two actually know Japanese?

 

[Red_taiyaki]

Fire boost. You really only need to use fire attacks for knockdown purposes imo.

 

[Sophia]

Aaaaaah haha.

I taught myself a limited amount a few years ago. I suck at remember written Kanji tho. His was easy enough to read.

 

[Data West]

Fire boost. You really only need to use fire attacks for knockdown purposes imo.

I don't know about that. Yukiko was one of my biggest damage dealers on bosses.

 

[buddha0991]

I never kept any of the Evade skills

 

[Splash Wave]

I never kept any of the Evade skills

Why not?

 

[buddha0991]

Why not?

My game is to stack as much offense as I can. If I really need Defense, I got Marakukaja and Matarunda for that. Plus Guard.

 

[Sophia]

Why not?

You have accessories that can do them + there are more useful skills + you shouldn't be letting the enemy hit your weakness so many times that they'd be useful anyhow.

 

[Jintor]

The max s-link evade skill is baller though because it frees up the accessory slot for more useful stuff.

Like +10 strength to Chie!

Especially given evolved personas don't lose their weaknesses anymore. Dodging four of margaret's attacks in a row is worth a pretty penny.

Frankly I drop Dia and its skillset as soon as able, if you have a dedicated healer they're always going to be using media/salvation anyway. Give Yukiko a half-sp-usage ring and go to town erryday.

 

[buddha0991]

It is interesting to see how people build their guys based on playstyle now. There are so many extra skills, peoples end game stuff could look completely different now.

 

[Jintor]

I ended up with a Koryu with spell master and three levels of invigorate. It was impossible to lose SP with him ==;;

Good idea. My SP building machine has all invigorates and spirit drain.

 

[Data West]

I got Spell Master on Saturnus, so replacing Yukiko with Teddie was no biggie at that point.

Rushing my 3rd playthrough hard, almost at Oct. I think I almost have all the books for the book trophy so I can get my plat trophy finally.

Holy shit though, I almost got screwed out of that damn July book again if I didn't have a reasonable previous save file. The requirements for that particular book is just fucking stupid ridiculous. I first thought it was just having Strength SL at 4 or less, but no 2nd playthrough taught me you had to have Sun SL at like 2 or not even going. My advice, don't bother with Sun SL till you have all the books, best be safe.

So on 3rd playthrough I had Strength at level 4, no Sun SL and I still didn't get the book. Got the call, went to event, no book. WTHWTFBEANSALAD@$SHIB!! Well it turns out during conversation during that event you have to specifically answer you hate math. Hopefully my pain getting this book and this trophy will help some poor P4G players not go through this hell or pain. I honestly have no freaking clue how someone could just stumble upon that book through normal gameplay with all those ridiculous requirements. If you did go buy a lotto ticket like right now.

On June 24th: Talk to the Chubby Student/Risette fan on the second floor of the practice building. Then talk to Rise' grandmother. Then talk to the Kind Man in the Floodplain.

On June 25th: Come back to the floodplain and talk to the Photographer, select the first option both times. Should give you access then.

The Chubby Student/Risette Fan is only present on Monday/Wednesday/Friday. The Photographer is there on Tuesdays/Thursdays/Saturdays. The dates I listed are the earliest dates possible.

Seriously, that Risette fan trophy popped no problem for me 1st playthrough last dungeon. This has been a freaking nightmare for me.

At least I got to tell Kanji to be a man and just let them dangle for a third time.
