That game has as much hype (if not more) than Ultimax for me. Can't. Wait.
So much so that I spoiled some stuff for myself a while ago. Hope it doesn't ruin the game for me.

Do you know anything about it past the trailers they've shown?
Not trying to be rude, as it may very well be GOTY for me too (unless Smash or Bayo 2 really impress) but I'm just curious if you're saying that just from experiencing the first one.

That aint corny, I cried like a man-babby during a certain event in December in P4.
Tbh if games dont make you feel something, that is the sign of a bad game in my opinion.
Also, DR2 hype! September 5th cant come quickly enough.

Behold: the majestic Junpeiraffe in his natural habitat
So guys, is this Soejima's artwork?
I don't remember the last time he drew Makoto (maybe in P3P? and I'm not counting with PQ). I like Makoto's design in the picture above.
The left is Sogabe, the right one is an illustrator for the new anime.
No Soejima in here. Trust me, I'd recognize that.

The left one is definitely by Sogabe. I love his art style so much that I'm able to differentiate it from Soejima's. I'm not sure about the right one; I think it's by the P4GA anime staff.

Could you PM me the moment? I'm intrigued as nothing effected me like that while playing :/
and before anyone says anything, although I disliked the style and presentation I enjoyed the game alot, easily in my top 5 for 2014 so far.
I was joking ;_;
I agree with you, quality-wise. It's just a shame that it won't get much attention in the media. Game is gonna be super good.
Loved the investigations, particularly how it laid out actual clues that you could pick up on.
Disliked the characters, story, art and music.
I actually really enjoyed playing through the game, but everything outside of playing it wasn't for me.
Boy, do I disagree with this.
He kind of did. Soejima drew the covers for the special editions of the DVDs, as well as the complete box set.
Beat me to it!
Kinda disappointed Kojima isn't a playable character.
Atlus needs to show us some more footage of Persona: Dancing All Night soon! >< The announcement of the Miku game on the 3DS just makes me want DAN even more. (I love rhythm games).
Oh gosh. @_@ DR1 was seriously a great game. I want to play the second one just to see what's up with Monokuma.

I hope it's the P4A Story Mode Japanese Gamers get.
....Kojima? Do you mean Kanami or something?

Literally one minute from now. twitch.tv/atlususa
Well, for one thing new from the stream at least, Fog might be the standard P4 mirror theme instead of just the P4 Shadow mirror theme, but it might have been a coincidence.
Edit: And this match is some major Rise overload. A normal Rise mirror with two Rise navigators? Great.
Edit 2: P4AU's main theme starts with "Break out of...", which is reminiscent of "Reach out for the Truth."

Thank you guys for the answer! Then Sogabe improved the character design imo.The left one is definitely by Sogabe. I love his art style so much that I'm able to differentiate it from
Soejima's. I'm not sure about the right one; I think it's by the P4GA anime staff.

Me too, but I doubt it though. The people who would benefit the most out of it are people who haven't played the first P4A. Why give it away for free when you can charge those people the price of the full game?
This doesn't make any sense. Episode P4A will be part of the localized version of the game. The question is whether it's separate DLC (which would probably be less than the current P4A PSN price of $15) or included for free with pre-order bonus stuff.
And I see that even Period is a P4AU BGM. They really included pretty much anything.
Edit: Will have to pause through each second they went through those BGMs to see what they were. Minazuki's theme is "Blood Red Moon."

Maybe I'm not explaining my point clearly enough. I wouldn't think they would reward hold outs by giving them the unique part of P4A for free, when they could charge them full price, whether that be the game or the DLC. I wouldn't be surprised if the DLC was $15, given the hours of story included.

Loool, everyone wanted S. Rise to win to see her winning animation, and yet we got shirtless human Shadow Teddie.
I see, but the entire P4A story most likely does not equate to Episode P4A. As others have said, it's likely that it's an abridged and concise version of it as they have done with BlazBlue in the past. There is no way they could justify $15 for that; I could see it being $10 max.
I wasn't paying attention to that win animation (out of being frustrated that we didn't see Shadow Rise's), but did Shadow Teddie take off the costume?
And yeah, they really did include all of the songs, going from "Changing Seasons" playing right now. It's weird, but cool at the same time.

Not the whole costume, just the head if I remember, so you can only see him from his belly to his head.
Oh, but there was no actual human looking thing there? I got confused because I thought people were talking about a new win animation that wasn't shown before.

Yeah, there was shirtless human shadow Teddie smiling.

Damnit I would watch if I wasn't a couple of GBs away from reaching my bandwidth cap for the month, these livestreams are way too heavy for me to even risk clicking on the link... Wish it was the 4th already. Hopefully these will be put up on youtube.
New battle songs (and names) in total:
The Joker could be their theme, though that would be a bit weird since they weren't in the build they were showing off. I can't imagine their theme would be "Burning Inferno", so I'm giving that one to Sho's. If that isn't the case, "The Joker" would be Sho's theme and "Burning Inferno" would be something else.
Oh wow, awesome; thanks! I've never seen that win pose with Shadow Teddie in arcade footage, so it might be new. Now I want to see Shadow human Teddie in the story.

Well we did get confirmation on a release date for P4U, September 30.
Edit: Whoops, still a placeholder date.

After seeing that Freedom Wars isn't getting a physical copy, plus this (not to mention the countless other titles that suffer from the same problem), one has to admit, EU like always gets the short end of the stick. I'm glad that I live in Canada but it sucks for my friends that I still have there that wanna play these games and can't.

I wonder if that's a glitch. Normal characters have an exclusive win pose, like shadow characters. I thought this was Teddie's.
Also, when shadow character's activate their 'shadow rampage', they use the same animation as normal character's burst. However, Shadow Teddie's animation was edited to exclude
human Teddie
Anyway, isn't that picture a spoiler? I thought
Teddie forming a human self was a pretty big plot point.
9/30 is not the confirmed release date.

Not Atlus, people who love canon more than respect it. It's a pet peeve of mine, and I feel it lets alot of damage seep into long-form narratives.
MORE IDOL. ALL THE IDOL. EVERYONE WAS IDOL.
I feel that it was specifically Rise who was referred to here:
Edit: Also, it was mentioned that the new song that was played last week was indeed "one of the final boss themes", showed off in "one of the final boss stages."
Might just be a standard win quote demonstrating Shadow Yu's propensity to manipulate, though.

Experiencing the original, having confidence that they'd deliver in a sequel, and hearing from people who've played it that apparently they do just that and more.
