I don't even mind wimpy per se. I hate the pathetic self loathing timid characters. Armin in Shingeki drove me nuts. To be fair, he went on to be the coolest character in the series (or at least the one with the most growth).

Oh, yeah, that's what I meant by wimp lol. I don't mind someone who isn't very couragous to begin with but the type of characters you've brought up I'm not too fond of either.

One of the shackles is broken perhaps saying they have revealed 1 out of 5 characters?

I wonder how long till the next one is broken.

Didn't everybody suggest that Soejima would make extremely good looking characters for P5? Where did that even come from, anyway?

Glasses-kun is definitely what I consider an 'attractive' character.

And it came from an observation of the direction of Soejima's art. Both his male and female characters have become progressively more attractive.

In order to be labeled attractive, he must pass the Rise test. ie. Would Rise date this man?

:p

I don't think he's going to be a passive type protagonist like Makoto was for Persona 3. His facial expressions in the trailer are that of determination, as well as someone who has taken a significant interest in their surroundings.

The face of a determined/hardened leader.

I jest. His stare at the end with the glass (and the flames) made him look pretty bad ass.

Yeah, he definitely seemed determined, not a blank emotional slate. Almost like he was hunting Shadows.

Ahahaha, I was just editing in how I liked his expression changing there at roughly 35 seconds in.



Really gives off a determined vibe that is noticeably contrasting both the Persona 3 and Persona 4 protagonists.

I edited my post, I just kidding. But yeah, that's a nice reaction shot. He also looks bad ass at the end with the flames in his glasses. He's an interesting character just based on the trailer alone. So many expressions.

So some people seem to think that the girl with the side-ponytail and scrunchie is a party member.

Thoughts? I actually think it's possible.


I also think that character cut-ins on the billboard are possible characters. Its hard to say for sure, but they look like they could be Soejima art.

The Law of Conservation of Detail suggests you may be right. She's the only person in that image who is more detailed than the rest of the bystanders.

I don't know why but looking at this specific image is making me REALLY hyped for the game. I'm jumping around squeeing in my chair in anticipation. I CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS GAME!

Because it's what we've been waiting for...for a long time! I'm so beyond hyped. :D

When can we even realistically expect this to come to the US? I said in the other thread, but if this coming out in Japan in 2015 (and assuming it's early 2015), then I can't imagine this will be in the US before Sept. So maybe Sept-November window?

The wait will be so long. EDIT: I guess SMT IV came out 2 months after the Japan release. So maybe it won't be that far pushed back.

What? Why? I don't understand this thing about looking in the crowd to see party members?

I think there's more chance of that idol being a party member but even then. I think they just wanted to show of the MC and atmosphere with this trailer. If only they had included some music ;__;

Also, I stepped into the Super Best friends thread.......and it seems like another Persona community thread there lol. Surreal.

Because she appears in the foreground and is drawn more precisely than everyone else in the trailer, and in a style more consistent with Soejima art, and with a design that is more unique than the other characters.

It might be completely wrong, but it's hardly a crazy notion either.

EDIT: Okay, I just had a proper look at the possible cut in images, and they look A LOT like Soejima art.

I just realized that at some point last night I became a full-fledged member of NeoGAF! My 300th post was in this very thread being stupid-excited for Persona 5. I think that's what did it?

Happy to be a real boy now, thanks to y'all.

A couple other people appear in the foreground too, but they're noticeably more generic. She really stands out, which I hardly think is a coincidence given this development team.

Here are some of the other generics, for the record:

I wonder who the MC Velvet room assistant might be. Just imagine if it were Marie, them tears.

But in all likelihood it won't happen.

Observation: Marie in her P4G epilogue getup (Or something similar) would actually be very appropriate for her to take Igor's place. She looks sophisticated.

<<Abload.de is being a shit right now, I'll upload the other generics here when it starts working again>>

Yup, exactly.

That's true, it's just specifically that one image. It gets my hyped more than anything else. But yeah, I cannot wait for this game any longer. I need it now!

I was rewatching the trailer for more scrunchie-girl moments, and this guy caught my eye.
I'm not very good at picking things important out but what do you all think?

well i dont know if this was put up here yet or not (dont want to look up 100pages ^^")
but a semi popular theorie is that this wasnt the actual protoganist of the game, this is based of the fact that only one shackle is broken and not the one in the middle.

That actually did cross my mind earlier. If this turns out to not actually be the protagonist I don't think I wanna be around for peoples reactions when we find out. :p
Or maybe I do.

Possible. Was one shackle not broken before?

I'd be down with Glasses-kun being a party member.

New avatar thanks to Dantis (who even made an extra coloured version for me!). So awesome. Now it's time for hype.

I'm not seeing it. She is more detailed but not much more than the girls on the train and it may be since she's close to our view. I don't mind if she is though since her design is nice.

So in the trailer it looks like Glasses-kun gets off the train and he's hearing this ping, this high frequency and he's looking for it. And then blue flames in the distance.

Looks like only he can see/hear it.
