I disagree. It's not that the characters aren't interesting, it's that they've had their arcs already. We've spent so much time with them, there's really no where else to go without changing them into something unrecognizable from where they were at the ends of their respective games.

Then I'll enjoy feeding off your salt.
I'll enjoy feeding off yours when they, in fact, do not happen.

I guess it makes sense to them being insecure after they thought their shadows were back, like starting to think they didn't evolve from last year. But in the end of the story I thought they were fine, I liked Chie's interaction of Akihiko and how pumped to be a cop she is.
The main thing I like about Arena is the idea of a professional group of shadow combatives. I mean, I love the high school setting and stuff but I'm an adult now and I'd like to see one story going a little more mature, that's why I think a sequel could be good.

I was thinking boss theme as well. The last track in the interview video reminds me a bit of the bar music in Catherine. I guess it could be used when they're hanging around in the coffee shop.
You. I like you. Let's be friends.

I can't be disappointed! I've already seen #FE!
EDIT:
No, the proper idea is have a Wonderful 101-style Shadow Operatives game.
Aigis is in Bayonetta's role.
Fixed and yea, that'd be awesome.
Sounds like some lost / unreleased battle theme for Digital Devil Saga hahaha i love it, and yeah for dungeon boss battle theme sounds great. This is the kind of music i was expecting from Meguro , sounds awesome.
I dont know about the pv02 been the battle theme of the game , it takes too much too build up... but i can see it been the battle theme , mostly if have some vocals in the final game.
(PV01 was confirmed to be the opening theme by Meguro so i dont mind to talk about that one).
Need those vocals to be reveal for the pv01 theme or the pv02 one (if is not a instrumental track).
pv03 is going to be instrumental for sure i think.
The 'professional shadow exterminator' group is a bridge too far for me. I'm all for P-Studio telling more adult stories, but they need to do them the same whey they do the previous Persona stories. They need to feel grounded in reality. That's what makes their stories relatable. Putting the P3/P4 cast in a globe trotting organization trying to save the world gets way too far away from that reality for me.

Might be the only way I'd tolerate Aigis. But only if she was just as sassy and vulgar as Bayo.
If you're going to do a Bayo clone, go all the way.
That setting can completely be done in a relatable way. Have you had to do a lot of travel for business before? Go out to meet clients? Work in different corporate offices? Follow up on sales leads? Negotiate deals with third parties?
Just because it's not a school or local setting doesn't make it unrelatable. The issue is not everyone can have the same experiences after the school years. Not even university can be necessarily directly relatable. But if you're gonna do an older set story, globe trotting doesn't mean it can't work...if anything, it helps it even more since there's plenty of existing real world analogues to make that work in a more adult aged setting.

So it seems like the Persona 5 Wanted posters are spread out internationally. Anyone here close enough to one to go and check it out?
The map on that page should give all the locations.

But the reason people were surprised was because he was telling them it was 2015. It was pretty obvious that the game wasn't going to hit 2015 in the US at least. And I'm sure he knew that better than people on the outside.
However, as a PR person, all he will really communicate is whatever the most recent official information was, which was 2015. He's not going to say "Hey the game might not make 2015" before Atlus gives any kind of official announcement.

He is bad, but eventually good since
he's shown in the party here
There's one just across the Detroit/Windsor border. Didn't expect to see that. I'm not gonna make the 3+ hour drive and cross the Canadian border just to look for a poster I probably won't find, but that's unexpectedly close.

Must have nabbed the last P3 party member unaccounted for.

Really? I thought Chie was the best of of the initial four. It at least, provided better insight to her insecurities than her scenes in the main game.
I believe he is the paint guy. People thought he looked like Jun at the time.

We know him for a long time, I don't think he would lie. If that was the case he would be more silent, but he showed confidence and repeated that a lot. We don't know how things work at Atlus, could have been little communication between Atlus JP and Atlus USA.
Anyway, that doesn't matter anymore. :/

Huh, apparently there's one that I could see if I took like a twenty minute detour on the way to/from work.
if they would have one in egypt or so i would have said they want to hint at location or countrys where the p5 team will be do heists.
The idea of a heist in Detroit and/or Windsor is pretty hilarious, Having been there, there's nothing there to steal.

My post in the other thread:
Unless he was completely cutoff from the localization team, I honestly can't see how he wouldn't have been aware of the state of the game, at least for the US builds. And every game team I've worked on in the past, PR was always in the loop on progress.
Who knows, maybe they actually had a build ready to go to SCEA and everything. But a last minute pull out for a complete game usually results in a minor delay, not as big as this.
well not the direct cities or places just general area.
I also guess that there are far more out there and they only appear on map once someone actually scans the qr code aka reports the thief.
By general area, do you mean the specific areas of Canada and the US? The idea that they'd have a location in Ontario or here in Michigan is still pretty funny. If you just mean the P5 crew will show up somewhere in the US and somewhere in Canada, I would believe that.
i wouldnt go as far as saying areas more like countrys.
I just want the theme already. If the Special Show was just them playing the theme on stage, I would be happy.
It's still hilarious that of all the places they could've put the poster in the Midwestern US or Canada, they choose the Windsor/Detroit boarder. How does that even happen?
maybe they where cheaper? Ad placements in cities can be rather expensive.

The locations seems really random. Of the UK ones, one is on a Mosque, and the other two don't seem to be attached to anything in particular.
And they're all in the South, so I can't check them out.

Link to that please?
like maybe there are more in the world and people jsut have to find and scan/report them and post it on twitter.
They maybe have an crwaler thas looks for the tweets and updates the maps acrodingly.
I'm.... 10 minutes from the one in New Jersey, and have tommorrow off from work. I might go check it out
I prefer the "rock" theme of the trailer , even the "sad" music from the end of the trailer...
But yeah so far all the music sounds good ... they need to peform something of that tomorrow (saturday).

The name of the series is Perusona, so.
