Man, Ken looks way better now! But it kinda stands out (in a good way) compared to the other P3 characters.Koro with his old sweater is a nice touch. I'm glad Koro wasn't old/dead/Mitsuru's coat like some people speculated way before they announced him. Also, I totally called the Hama + Mudo combo as their IK!

 

[Spectrasonic]

So we know Ken's title?

 

[LegionAgent]

Guess the thug life didn't chose Ken after all.....Or did it?

"A Really Boring Character"

"A Really Boring Character"

"Boring and The Beast"

I bet it has "

[Acid08]

Odds on one of the female characters making a weird comment about how attractive the 13-year-old is?

Man's best friend indeed ft Ken.

 

[Dantis]

Very, very high.

I bet you it's Chie.

His eyes aren't level. I can't not see that now. Soejima seems to be really phoning these Ultimax profile pictures in.

Cannot unsee. Thanks for that.

You could date him when he was 10.

If 200 out of 10 is a chance then that's the chance.

Like in a bag with only 10 marbles in it 200 of those 10 marbles are this.

Nanako x Ken confirmed.

 

[kewlmyc]

Nah, she has Akihiko. It'll probably be Yukiko or Rise,

or Kanji

.

Nanako x Ken confirmed.

That's not even funny.

 

[MiguelMexMIstery]

That's not even funny.

Sorry, I kinda had to.
But yeah, Nanako is still 7 years old I think.

So who do you think Ken will form bonds from the P4 cast with (like Yosuke and Aigis, Chie and Akihiko and Yukiko and Mitsuru)? In PQ he seems to befriend Kanji and Yosuke.

 

[Squire]

Didn't know we had so many experts on what 13-year-olds are lookin' like nowadays.

Never doubt GAF

That's what I love about GAF. Experts in every field.

 

[Chet Rippo]

Very, very high.

I bet you it's Chie.

It would be more in character for Yukiko.

 

[DryEyeRelief]

Nanako x Ken confirmed.

I have a feeling the source for that comment is Zen United's lie.

b-but
I desperately want to believe that at some point there was a better Akihiko design

The original plan was for Akihiko to cosplay as a Magic Mike dancer.

 

[Red The Hunter]

You know, the way they've treated Ken in Arena is somewhere between amazing and really frustrating. Things like him looking after Koromaru after everyone went their separate ways and even little things like joining the student council are so cool.

But then it stands in such a contrast to how the other P3 characters have been treated. It's really weird, and it makes me wish we'd seen a more normal version of Mitsuru and Akihiko (and to a lesser extent, Junpei).

Junpei.....really, he seems pretty normal if you ask me.
Plus, people can change quite a bit over a few years. Him being a little league coach is alright in my book, because he seems to be not super crazy and over the top about it compared to Mitsuru and Akihiko.

 

[abrack08]

I have a feeling the source for that comment is Zen United's lie.

Had to Google it, is it that he was originally designed similar to Jason Statham in The Transporter, but redesigned to give the cast a more "rugged" character? How do we know that's a lie, the Arena design works?

A badass Akihiko in a suit would have been pretty cool.

 

[Ljrivarola]

That's what I love about GAF. Experts in every field.

I still haven't forgotten the nipple talk.

Nanako x Ken confirmed.

No. Please, no.

Spoiler

There will be fanart about it anyway.

where's Raizou? (aka a Ken sim. will do a handsome Ken version later.)

That better be his DP

 

[Squire]

Sounds like Atlus might bring Ultimax to EVO. Makes sense.

Edit: Someome will say he's cute. So what? Some of you guys are so high strung, haha.

Why do you take us seriously at this point?

And neat. Did someone post that on twitter?

Yeah, JLH and LordKnight.

And don't worry I can tell who's serious and who's not, with the regulars.

Pan I 100% agree with that first comment.

 

[Lunar15]

Real talk: I far prefer getting Ken and Koro to Adachi.

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

Isn't Ken 15 now?

 

[Setsu00]

Isn't Ken 15 now?

Nope. Between 13 and 14.

 

[jello44]

Your hate for Ken seems stronger than others. Why is that Mr. Jello?

I've already said that he's an annoying little shit.

He irks me with his "grown up" attitude.

His character in the game is worthless.

Without Ken, Shinjiro would have never joined SEES again.

Give neo-Ken a chance!

Chie would

That's fine.

Considering what happens to him

 

[SloaneRisette]

Adachi isn't handsome

 

[Lord Scrambles]

Adachi isn't handsome

Are you kidding? He's the biggest hunkmuffin in the game

 

[Sophia]

I am perfectly okay with Ken for three reasons: He actually dresses proper unlike the rest of the P3 cast. He has Koromaru with him. And Shadow Ken actually looks legitimately cool.

 

[Squire]

Real talk: I far prefer getting Ken and Koro to Adachi.

Yep.

Btw, was it ever confirmed/clarified that the story mode is just two routes (IT and Shadow Ops) and not one scebario for each character?

 

[Sophia]

Confirmed right on the official website that there are four story episodes: http://p-atlus.jp/p4u2/story/

Magazine scans from earlier also confirmed the P3/P4 story episodes too.

 

[Lord Scrambles]

Real talk Adachi would have been 300x better than Rise

 

[SloaneRisette]

P3 Episode deals with Ken taking on the Amagi Challenge

 

[LelouchViBritannia]

Adachi isn't handsome

Smed, im saying this for your own benefit.

Spoiler

We all know what happens to those that dont wanna hook up with Adachi. Watch your back son.

And more importantly....

Part 2

 

[Setsu00]

I never understood the appeal of Adachi.

 

[RockderBanja]

Just finished watching the P3 movie with my friend. It was fantastic, and I really like what they did with the protagonist. Even my friend who isn't into animu or Persona enjoyed it. All I can say is I hope we get a dub eventually.

Also Ken looks awesome now.

Spoiler

I miss the shorts though.

 

[SloaneRisette]

[Lord Scrambles]

I never understood the appeal of Adachi.

Throughout the game he resonated with me because he was a carefree goof who also happened to be smarter than he appeared.

Spoiler

as a villain I found hin twisted in the best way possible...although his dialogue needed a bit of work

 

[FluxWaveZ]

I never understood the appeal of Adachi.

(P4 spoilers)

Spoiler

It's all about his anti-social and nihilistic nature, for me. I tend to gravitate towards villains due to elements like this. He was manipulative, deceptive, arrogant... all that good stuff.
