Honestly the only way to solve this is to have a PersonaGAF character ranking.

Why bother, Chie would win :p

That recent Drakengard 3 poll broke that "rule" though. Mikhail won the poll while Zero was #4.

To be fair, Zero is super unlikable.

Where to you guys see these characters top charts? I'm curious about Naoto's and Chie's popularity now.

In the polls, they are usually 3rd or 4th respectively, sometimes even tied.

Can't wait for all of them to get taken down. Hopefully they're still up by the time I'm off work.

Have you played the game with the English or the Japanese voices? Depending on that and how far you played the game, I'd agree with that.

English Zero is constantly annoyed and moody, while Japanese Zero is rather indifferent and particularly in the later parts of the game, kinda tragic.

Zero is basically a different character in both versions.
 
Well it's a moot point now

Both Yu and Makoto have distinct personalities in PQ
I'd like to see a poll that is only taking into account Persona 3 and 4, no spinoffs, no adaptations, no drama CDs, none of that junk. Self-insert silent protagonists still win, I'm calling bullshit.
 
Thats something I didnt notice yesterday, on the main menu there is something that says "P$ 0022000".

Could this be a new method for unlocks like art and navigator voices? Earn (I assume) Persona Dollars through fights, then spend them to unlock things.

You'll also be able to buy P$ with your real money.

So, No items, Fox only, Final Destination?

I doubt that either of them would win under those conditions, but you never know. In any case, it's just a dumb poll. I don't know why people are getting all bent out of shape over the results.

If it´s like Blazblue, then yeah you basically have the right idea there.

I have to say that I like English Zero better.

There is no more satisfaction than listening to Mitsuru becoming a grumpy bitch.

I don't think anyone was bent out of shape (at least I wasn't). It's more of an observation.

For the Drakengard 3 popularity poll, it's funny that Four won the highest ranking among the sisters.

I would be interested to see the results after the DLCs, because the ranking is done before them.

Four is my most hated Intoner.

Edit: Oops, I appear to have made a mistake... I thought the description of Golden meant that P4Golden animation took place 3 years later. XD

So maybe I'm totally wrong, but is Persona 4 Golden Animation, going to be the canon, and make the events with
Marie in P4Golden itself not canon? Hence why she doesn't appear to make an apperance (as far as I know) in P4A2?

As far as I know canon is in-line with the games unless an adaptation adds something. (but not replaces it)

Yeah, I made a mistake, for some odd reason, when I watched the trailer on aniplexUS YouTube channel and saw this in the description:

"The gang is back after 3 years joined by a few new faces."

I for some reason thought it meant the story took place 3 years later, and not
that the anime is coming out 3 years after the original anime.

You say that but you like Japanese Monokuma. It's not a bad thing, but it is kinda funny.

Japanese Monokuma's emotes are hilarious and quite fitting though. Kuma just grades on my senses after a while.


Funny cause Kuma's voice actor is the same as Hifumi in Danganronpa.
 
Persona Q solves that issue that some people had with Persona 4, where the characters didn't get enough time to interact between themselves (without the protagonist being around)

Plenty of scenes between a set of P3 x P4 characters, it's really wonderful.

PQ GOTY confirmed. I'm seriously excited for this game.

Today's P4AU video is Chie and SHADOW Labrys
Huh, Chie's voice sounds kinda weird compared to her PQ video. I love these Shadow Labrys crazy expressions.

Labrys and Shadow Labrys sound so much better in Japanese. I still cant get use to her English voice.

I agree, the english voice forces me to hate Labrys, :p

I think in the Ultimax cover art, Soejima is playing up to the idea that Junpei is unattractive, the same way he does with Kanji.
Maybe that's why both of them (along with Shinjiro) have those weird eyes in PQ.

#1 Yu
#2 Yosuke

It checks out.
Yosuke is the true waifu.

If that is Valerie Arem, she sounds fine as Naoto to me. I'll still miss her original voice though.

Also, who's the new Margaret? She sounds REALLY bored.

I don't know, but I agree that she sounds really bored.

Which is a shame because Arena Margaret sounds a lot better than she was in P4.

And if that's the new Naoto's voice, I'll live.

How is Teddie likeable in Japanese? I find his voice is really grating.

In all honestly, I find Japanese Rise more annoying than Kuma. Rise's Japanese VA is known for voicing the most freaking annoying tsundere characters in anime and now I can stand any character she voices. Vastly prefer English Rise.

I like Rise's Japanese voice when she's more restrained, but once she goes into full "OMG SENPAI I <3 UUU" mode, I feel like muting the sound.

Japanese Rise and Japanese Teddie are both pretty bad.

Ok guys I'm playing P4G for the first time and I just got done
beating Shadow Naoto and having her join the party.
Now I've been hearing that putting her on the team from this point on in the game is possibly game-breaking due to her boosts to Light/Dark so the team I'm running at the moment is Yosuke/Chie/Yukiko. Would I swap out Yosuke or just run the team I have now?

Honestly you can get away with any team you want pretty handily, I say go with what your gut tells you.

That said there are an awful lot of enemies weak to Light and Dark after that point.

You can do either. Golden was rebalanced so that all of the party members are useful. Naoto is super good for dealing with regular enemies due to her light/dark skills (she can also get all -Dyne skills if you do it right), but the team you have now is good too since you can have all 4 Elements on one party as well as having a strong physical character (Chie), good healers (Yukiko and Yosuke) and useful buffs (Chie and Yosuke).

All in all, in Golden you cant really pick a bad party so just choose your favourites.

Possible P4AU spoilers?
Now I heard it, the guy saying in the beginning that Naoto and
Kanji are in a relationship in the game
and someone screaming spoilers in the background haha, following by them saying that's a huge spoiler, don't know if they're serious or not though?

I thought they meant the special relationship of the characters in P4.

Naoto is designed to be a enemy mob killer. She's so strong in that aspect that, you can end battles on a single party rotation, with just her and the MC attacking. Her weakness is that she isn't as useful in boss fights. So I guess if you want a balance, keep the characters that you feel can compensate for that weakness.

My final team was Yosuke/Yukiko/Naoto. In retrospect, I think having someone who hit harder like Chie or Kanji instead of Yosuke would have been preferable. But it doesn't really matter. If I were you I would try Naoto out, see if you like having her in the party then form a team based on who you're comfortable with.

I think they just mean a relationship in the sense that those are two characters who interact, rather than a romantic relationship.

EDIT: Oh huh, they do shout "Spoilers!". That makes me unsure.

Oh dear.

I see, maybe that's it indeed. I just found it weird because they made a fuss about it being a spoiler and maybe having a special intro.

Yeah, wonder who the person screaming is? Maybe John Hardin? I hear "spoilers" but I can't understand the rest.

Lets face it, Ultimax takes place a day or two after Arena. No way could a "relationship" start in that time.

I think the 'spoilers' shout was a joke and they were referring to character interaction more than anything.

Well, it is kind of a spoiler for Persona 4.
