So we're doing the P4 Arena competitive fighting scene episode of S.Link on the 17th with Dacidbro, spot for 1 more. Who wants in?
Preferably someone that knows a lot about Arena and fighting games in general.
Sorry to keep spamming the OT with podcast stuff, just trying to get this done way ahead of time.

I can, but I'd also recommend MoTheHawk unless you've got him already.

I could record a track on my violin and we could edit it into a duet! I already have Aria of the Soul memorized
Duuude if you could do an extended piano intro I'd be eternally grateful.
I see you asked on twitter as well, it's a done deal then.
OH MY GOD THE SHOW IS ON THE ITUNES STORE NOW EVERYBODY FREAK THE FUCK OUT.

Speaking of iTunes....
I got this in the app store finally. It's a Persona weather app for the iPhone (no, I won't be porting it to Android).

So apparently there's some unused audio that somewhat implies there was going to be a lovers path for Yosuke.
...
I might be in the minority here, but a lovers path for Yosuke could have been pretty neat.

I think it's a stretch. I can't find any references to it anywhere besides there, and I can't listen to the audio because it's been taken down.
It wouldn't have fit the character at all though, and there's never been any mention of it in any of the production materials they released.
I have a feeling that guy has found some audio, and is stretching it to fit a specific purpose.
First time I'm reading about this, although I can't say I'm surprised. What I'm surprised about, if what I assume is right, since I haven't listened to the files, is that the audio got dubbed into English.
Also, kinda reminds me about the Junpei lovers route ending in P3P, even if that one never got dubbed.

I'm still bummed by the No Junpei Romance.
He's the only guy who turns FeMC down. D:
It would certainly change the dynamic of his constant teasing of Kanji.

The divide on opinion on Yosuke ( to a lesser extent Junpei) is interesting. Don't matter though, Eikichi #1Bro4Lyfe
I agree that it's pure conjecture at this point, but there was definitely something going on here It could be possible that they attempted to make 2 variants of Yosuke's s.link. One where you're just friends with him, and another where you become inseparable friends with him, though I like to think they thought about making Yosuke a romance option, and cut it out before it got serious.
For reference, some of the cut lines were:
"I never knew I had such heat inside(?)", "I like you", "don't go"
But chidori...!
She's dead, Jim.
So blunt, lol.
Maybe.
Part of me hopes Junpei wasn't in Arena cause they didn't want to answer that definitively or not yet. Still wonder if the absence of that in The Answer is because it's not canon, or because they absolutely didn't want ANY data transferred from the Journey to the Answer. Seems like a weird thing to add in the Fes version of Persona 3, but not include a mention of it in the Answer, which makes me believe it's the latter.
And yeah, can easily see it as the reason Yosuke teases Kanji so much, just not being secure in himself. Then again, it's not unheard of for teenagers to act like that, especially your "bro" characters.
Happy Junpei took on the Big Bro role to the Female MC of P3P. Junpei's biggest growth occurs because of Chidori after all.

no.
But Dantis, of course it's going to be canon. Everyone knows P5 is "Labrys and the Robot Girls With Varying Accents Squad"! It's gonna be super-robot-waifu-moe-kawaii!
No, stop asking and play it.
Not going to lie and say it is one of the biggest things I am curious about finding out about 5: Standalone completely, some hints to previous(ala 4's optional boss), or continuation. Hoping for the first one with a Persona spin-off continuing Arena personally.
You realize what you just said is only a few words off what a lot of deniers were saying about The Answer in P3 right?
Yeah but P4A has robot gir.... wait.
Exactly.
Didn't you say recently that the Persona games were badly written in general recently? What does it matter if P4 Arena is canon or not if that's the case?
You Said that about P4 anyways.

I think you're mixing things up.
I said that P4 has a pretty bad over-arching plot. Maybe that's what you mean? The writing is stellar, and I've never said otherwise.
The difference is that we know for sure that the answer is canon. Outside of Hashino saying "Arena will be a proper sequel to Persona 4", we have nothing.
As usual, you're missing the point. All the people who were in denial about The Answer being non-canonical were wrong, and you will be too about P4A.

Right, if it's explicitly mentioned, then I have no choice but to accept it, right?
But what if it isn't? :O
That's what I'm saying. It won't be. This isn't a Persona: Trinity Soul situation where Atlus has flat out ignored it and it has only the loosest connections to the games.
Occam's Razor logically suggests that there is no way what so ever that Persona 4 Arena would ever in any way be declared non-canonical. You don't introduce entire plotlines just to ditch it later.
Occam's Razor suggests that for now we should assume it's canonical, at least.
I guess I'll just have to wish extra, extra hard.

See the difference is one has two robot girls and the other has... wait.
No. It's canon.
So Personagaf, I have a little question for you guys.
Just started Persona 1 Portable as my first Persona game, so far I'm in SEBEC, and all the combats I do I simply press Auto and wait for the combat to end. I sometimes have to go melee for the kids with the knives but outside of that its pretty simple. Do the game get more complicated down the road or is it a 20 hour ride like that?
Also, just got my first spell card by speaking to Cu Sith. From what I understand, I can make it into a persona? Should I speak to all the monster I encounter to try to get spell cards?

Do I want a follow up to P4A that addresses its loose ends? Absolutely. Should that follow up be P5? Absolutely not.
I think P5 should be a separate entity, with only passing connections to previous games. They've done well keeping things separate, tonally and plot-wise, and I see no reason for them to stop now.

Again, I am saying, Persona: Shadow Operatives side game, would be neato.
