There's a few things from earlier trailers that haven't really been revisited yet, like the shopkeepers in PV1, or the minigames in PV3.

Reminds me of P4, in the sense that you actually encounter the late game dungeon at the very start of the game.

Maybe this could be his/her transformation? At least this is really the only scene that could hint at it:

Combined with the other shot of that person in PV01, that seems to be the go-to speculation point.
Maybe Morgana isn't the person, but the sleep mask.
I thought that was just a more-important-than-usual classmate/NPC.
That'll be the classmate that's always at the wrong place at the wrong time and keeps getting arrested under suspicion of being a phantom thief.

Ooo where at? I just glanced through PV1 and didn't see them.
That's what I meant
Sorry, I meant PV03, though I thought you had seen the comparison shot. Here: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=202716021&postcount=632

I'm under the impression that Morgana doesn't have a human form.
As for the black haired person, my guess that they're a friend of ryuji's , or even a sibling. Assuming Ryuji's blondeness is dye.

And then I realized nearly every persona character is an only child. head canons for protagonists and unofficial siblings nonwidthstanding.

Saw that the navigator has DLC costumes, I wonder how big of a role she'll have in battle, or if costumes apply outside of dungeons now.
Oh wow, didn't even realize they could be the same person, but totally see it now
With a cast this likeable (everyone seems to love it so far) could be very powerful if they handled right aka
Better than itkuski.

Was pleasantly surprised to see that many new faces. Hope I'm not the only one who was reminded of Robotics;Notes' Frau when Megane showed up.

Something about Aliens stealing people. It's name is apparently Necronomicon.
Someone suggested that UFOs are notorious for abducting (=stealing) people, but I don't quite get how that relates to the Necronomicon.

Yeah, that's what my gut is screaming right now lol

Tempted to import PS3 version. The factors will be how fast localization time is, and if we get the PS3 version intact here or not.
I love that she came back.

Yes, there was a link in the Tokyo Tower hype thread this morning. Page 7 or so?

Should all be in this playlist (along with some older ones): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZEjCIg2lEg&index=3&list=PLAL9SwtY26S0awdn6P3q_4iOGZMBYkUV0
I wonder if atlustube is gonna be more lenient now that they've really started their marketing cycle, or if it's only a matter of time until everything gets taken down again.

Well, the Necronimicon is a book, which tends to be a receptacle of information, no?
What else would be better for the manager for tactical data?
Also, going into the UFO thing, abducting livestock is more in line with stealing, not to mention the probing usually associated with it ties into analysis being her function.
Analysis.

I got the same impression, I'm cool if shes like that5. Frau was a character I hated at first, but grew to be one of my favorites
Well, the Necronomicon is tied to the whole Cthulhu mythos and all, right? And some (well, many, if not most) of the beings are cosmic and all, so...still bit of a stretch though.

Yeah, Necronomicon doesn't really fit in with that.
They'll probably talk about it in famitsu next week at least.
Im very curious about the opening of the game now .... they really hide / non include 4 characters at all.
How long is the opening really , what they hide in those 8 seconds or they be more seconds hidden.
And how about the pv04 song , judging for the lyrics sound like a updated version from the theme we got from the pv01

Who's Megane? How'd we get that name?
Thanks. Dungeon theme 2. Ugh, so good.

Calling it now, Adieu-chan's Persona will be d'Artagnan
Oh! Hah, thank you.
I was listening to some of the older stuff and already was enjoying myself, but the new songs...so good.

Whoa, is that where battles end? Where's that from? In PV4, it seems like battles end with this static screen:
I expect many comic jokes about how the phantom runs around in circles here.
I hope that's not the case.

So if the US release is after the JP one(and let's face it, it probably is), who's importing? I imported Catherine and... uh, mostly figured out the plot, so I'm tempted.
Top one is from the staff interview, and it is the proper end of battle.
Bottom one is what appears to happen if you instantly kill an enemy on the field, I think.
I'll wait. I've got high hopes for a 2016 US release.

The running one is from the Director Interview (also up on Atlus' youtube page).
If I had to guess, the bottom screen is what you get if you skip through battle finishes
I'm waiting. I'd rather be able to fully understand things. Though I admit the Japanese cast makes it tempting.

This is seriously the sexiest victory animation I've ever seen in a game. I hope this inspires other JRPG developers to spice things up with flavor.

Is he anywhere in the trailer?????
Nah. Just on the cover and obscured (I think that's him) on the dlc.
Top one could be the animation leading up to the bottom static screen, I mean it would be alittle silly to have Phantom dude run in circles while you idle.

Could be the person who we only see their feet towards the end
While I know some people aren't sold on the UI (even though most are) I think it's important to note how refreshing it is to see someone so absolutely dialed in on this part of design. Honestly, P5 is bar-raising in this aspect.
It's hard to fully describe what I mean, but it just feels like for the type of game P5 is (a turn-based anime JRPG) it seems like a massive, massive leap forward. It's the next generation of this type of game.

Oh wait. I think you can make him out in the scene where they're all walking toward the casino too on the left.
Honestly, when it comes down to aesthetic this should be an inspiration to pretty much every studio in the industry right now.

Also assuming it goes the standard end at December/January route. I wouldn't be surprised if goes a bit longer than that this go around.
