That's like saying Lady Gaga need to mentioning he influenced by Madonna or Michael Jackson though (serious).
JoJo is franchise with cult following and big trendsetter for anime/game culture in japan. Probably even bigger than such like DBZ. While the series itself copying some older stuff its also introducing load of new trope that still popular even now, resulting you can almost tell all trope that Japan love with just looking to the series.
Edit Kaneko sure well-versed about Jojo though

He talking about the infamous 911 prophecy in JoJo manga that written in early 90's and other creepy coincidence (non Jojo)

Neato thing time:
Both P4 screens are definitely the best, but I think I'm slightly leaning towards P4 over P4G.
Both sexy as fuck tho!!
I've been playing DKC:TF off and on today. Fantastic game so far.
User on another website notified me, in relation to that Amanda Winn-Lee thing earlier this week, that they asked Troy Baker, via a Reddit AMA, whether he has any Persona games on the horizon:
Simplest reasoning would be that he's being coy and either evading the content of the question by making a facetious remark on its strict wording (the question's relatively vague, so saying "not that I know of" could mean a few things) or he's straight up lying.
If it's neither of those and he's being genuine, then that could imply some interesting things. Not sure how this VA contracting or whatever business works, but I'd imagine that major voice actors would pretty much all be in on it around the same time, even if some of them haven't actually started providing the voice yet.

Well, that doesn't really explain Amanda Winn-Lee's Facebook comment. Some alternatives:
1. Yukiko's VA was lying.
2. Yukiko's VA is working on a Persona project that doesn't involve Kanji.
3. Troy Baker as Kanji is getting replaced.
4. Kanji in an upcoming Persona game will just used recycled VA.
Could mean anything, practically.
Yeah, I think people in the west tend to underestimate the influence of Jojo since, unlike the other big shonens, it's mostly been unlocalized. I'm pretty sure I read a quote at some point talking about inspiration, but right now all I can find is a vague mention on TVTropes. I would be surprised if there was absolutely no inspiration there, though.
You do realize that it will be near impossible to localize it just like JoJo right?
yeah

Kanji would be voicing Eikichi so that doesn't count, and Eikichi had voiced lines in EP.
She didn't voice anyone in P1...
Atlus wanted to cut the budget for this game so they decided to replace all the voice actors and make it an Amanda one-woman show.
I wasn't being serious.

For a Dungeon Crawler on a handheld? That would be OK to me.
Don't you think the new trailers posted today indicate full well that a lot about the game will be character interaction, special dialogue and cutscenes?
I can see that. What little of his character is concrete is that
Mom and Dad dumped him at his Uncle's house, bunked up his social life doing so, and vanished into the ether.
But people told me that 1 is closely related to 2. Plus, I don't want it to be like in 4 where I kept spoiling stuff on accident in 3 by virtue of playing 4.
Friggin' Margaret, I KNOW that's a big spoiler. I just KNOW it is.
Igor is a pimp; no one can deny his big "nose."

Wait what?
Oh, I may have misinterpret your spoiler tag comment.
I assumed you were referring to Igor having a new assistant in 4 and not keeping his other attractive female assistant in 3.
No I was referring to
Margaret telling me a story about why Elizabeth isn't in the Velvet Room anymore.
They're loosely related
Concepts like Philemon and the Persona game are common to both games, and a few characters from 1 show up in 2, but it's not like you miss out on anything major by skipping to 2. In fact I went backwards (P4 --> P1) and I retroactively enjoyed the P1 characters from their appearance in P2.
The choice comes down to gameplay (P1) or story (P2)
What they didn't tell you it's that P1 also kinda sucks. :<

P2EP > P4 > P2IS > P3 Answer > P1 > P3 Journey
Do not listen to him. Persona 1 is a great game!
Also I like that in Persona 2 there is a second song for the Velvet Room:

The other games should have copied this.

in P2EP there are like 4 velvet room songs

(this one is also redone in Soul Hackers in the fusion room Goumaden)

Oh man, I have *no* recollection of that story. I didn't actually know there was a reason. I thought Igor switched his assistants out on whims.
Hey, Keiichi, wanna play Ronde? >.>
Ronde might actually be the ugliest game I've ever seen.
As far as P1 vs 2 goes, I enjoyed the combat in P1 more. That being said, I'm not that far in yet so I could get sick of it eventually.
Those are great. They need to bring Nameless back. The Velvet Room needs a proper DJ. They have had the same tune on replay for a while now.

The Velvet Room being a nightclub in P5 would be really cool.
Sounds like you just really like the P4 cast. It's totally understandable. P3P is also crap for a first playthrough though. Especially after Golden which didn't have to make any sacrifices to be on a handheld.
Play P3 and you get to sit around waiting impatiently for the spin-offs like the rest of us!
P3P's presentation is definitely an issue, although I don't mind it as much as some. I also think P3 has some pacing issues, which might be making it harder to click. Or maybe P4 just clicks more!
It did for me. Actually, between 3 and 4 it seems like people almost always prefer the first one they played.
