I think I might stream Persona: Trinity Soul today. Beware. Bearware.

Is.....is this supposed to get people to tune into your stream, or avoid it? I'm confused.

Dunno, I'm just putting it out there. I am going to suffer and watch it, it's up to you people if y'all want to suffer with me.

Someone has to 
Trinity should have been about Geriatric rice farmers who get mixed up with the yakuza and have to use their newfound horsie personas Cane, Stable and Beth in order to stop the Yakuza's soylent-green organ replacement scheme. Koromaru makes a cameo as an activist on the behalf of the humane society of Japan.
These remind me of Jintor's style a lot. It's surprising how many people on Tumblr draw like this when it's quite an unusual style.
Like I've said before, I personally enjoyed it. It's not as terrible as some people make it out to be.

Where would one find this stream?
I think you need some time away from Chie.
I don't think anything lewd with that line, it's the next one.
I mean, i want to look up the actual lyrics, but it's almost funnier this way.

I hear "Your infection."
I also hear "Hobbit, hobbit" in Heartbreak, Heartbreak, so maybe I'm just weird.

Pursuing My True Self and Burn My Dread have thematically good lyrics. All of the songs that Benjamin Franklin did the lyrics for have decent lyrics. Lotus Juices songs don't have good lyrics per se, but the tone of them fits the context. "Fear's awake, anger beats loud, face reality" is like the best opening line for a battle song ever.

And that's not even the weirdest part of the series.
HOW ABOUT THOSE GREAT SOEJIMA CHARACTER DESIGNS THOUGH, HUH?

In my opinion most persona songs have thematically good lyrics, too bad Mass Destruction goes on to do what seems like a 4 minute "OH YEAH DOODOODOODOO DOODOODOODOO" solo

Like Baleen plates?
...what?
A lyric saved is a lyric earned.
Mike Patton once said that he writes music to fit the music, and that the lyrics to his songs generally don't mean anything. I think the same applies here. Songs like Heartbeat Heartbreak aren't meant to explicitly state anything, I don't think, but the song as a whole creates a feeling.
It's a stage name, obviously. He worked with Kitajoh on Trauma Team. He then worked with Kitajoh and Meguro on Arena and Golden, writing the lyrics, presumably because they have a reputation for being nonsense.
The thing is, nonsense is sometimes better. There's a song that Jed Whedon wrote for Dollhouse that I love, and he said that he made sure that it wasn't too on the nose in the lyrics, so that it didn't pull the viewer out of the TV show, which is exactly what could potentially happen with Persona if they're not careful. I don't want a song that is literally about summoning Personas or whatever.

Nocturne had the best lyrics. "THIS IS THE BOSS YOU SHALL NOW DIE."
Wait, that wasn't a mental patient shrieking hysterically?

It was the sound of Atlus during the Sega purchase.
Mr. Meguro is from the future?

He is a time wizard
I could not agree more.

Sounds engrish and hokey IMO but I still like the song
Fixed for the sake of Persona references.

Not having sensible lyrics sure makes it hard to sing the songs though.
It's not as if I think the songs are bad, hell I have Mass Destruction as my ringtone. It's just that I find that the actual lyrics when looked at don't match the greatness of the rest of the song. It's like the opposite of rap. Doesn't help that the female who sings the P4 songs needs to work on her pronounciation some more (she has greatly improved though).
Also, Burn My Dread, Snowflakes, and Pursuing my True Self do have good lyrics, it's just that I forgot about them since they don't play as often as the battle themes and overworld music.

Wasn't she married?
For what it's worth, her husband is a piece of shit.
