Doesn't the kid in 3 not come until like halfway in

3 doesn't do that.

But it basically rips off Evangelion near the end anyway.

Is it not the journey that matters?

Sure, let's just ignore 1 and 2.

I don't remember most of those in Persona 1 and 2.

Ryuji is at the half way point, kiddie him is at the start.

Isn't the kid who gives you the contract the baddie.

literally who

>Igor portrayed as a smart and clever man in all the games he shows up in, acting as a guide for the MC
>Suddenly he's a bitch in 5

ruined

the gas station guy wasn't part of the plot in p4 initially, was he?

>>is a nobody/outcast that nobody likes

Im sorry I couldn't hear you over the sound of being one of the most successful and influential people on the planet

>this is the actual state of persona now
SOCIAL LINKSSSS were a mistake.

Why isn't Igor anyone's husbando?

Nyx is the baddie, he just summons him

And 1 and 2 completely contradict this.

>minion/aspect of philemon gets fucked over by aspect of nyarly
sounds about right actually

Nose is too big. Also he isn't real, he's your imaginary friend.
Nyx is his fault then, he's the real bad guy.
Why didn't they just shoot him.

>And 1 and 2 completely contradict this.

Most of them. You do meet the final boss at the start of 1 though.

This is now a Persona 1/2 thread! Who is the most handsome, talented Persona character, and why is it Eikichi Mishina?

>is a nobody/outcast that nobody likes

Eat shit King Moron.

That's the bad ending.

Nah you meet mamma's boy's half brother pretty early in 1
Or Maki depending on how you look at it I guess

>nb4 someone posts a picture of his ultimate persona and calls it crap
Eikichi did blue hair best.

>Why didn't they just shoot him
but you can

I'm happy this image exists

>>is a nobody/outcast that nobody likes
Boy with Earring was pretty popular I thought
>>slowly gets to know a group of friends within a year
P1 takes place over a fairly short period of time
>>they all get powers that they can use in certain situations (in one particular after midnight, in the TV, in an alternate reality opened up by a phone app)
Deva Engine shenanigans doesn't quite fit in my opinion but I can see somone spinning it for your argument
>>there will always be a token animal/robot/nonhuman playable character
The closest P1 has is the Maki TWEEST or Brown.
>>after defeating the big bad boss, the group is disbanded/no longer have access to their powers, but they remain friends forever.
Haven't played P2 so idk

>dyes his hair every day at school and washes it out before he goes home, same for all his fashion
>can pants anyone easily, boss of Cuss High
>his dad who knows 18 forms of martial artists
>has a banging hot girlfriend
>rumor says he's getting Tatsuya Suou to perform for his band

>Haven't played P2 so idk

They all still have their Personas and occasionally help kick ass.

Man P2 cast had it rough, even when they're works of fiction no one remembers them.

t. never finished the game

Igor is a bitch in P5 bro.

But you finished the game right?

>after defeating the big bad boss, the group is disbanded/no longer have access to their powers, but they remain friends forever.

True to the first part, not the second

Yeah.

Then you know that you're not talking to Igor for the majority of the game then, right?

>Persona series started with P3: The Post

>>is a nobody/outcast that nobody likes
tatusya, retard

Ryoji is the kid with the prison PJ's that tell you to sign your name at the start of the game

I know what I said.

...

it makes sense for no one to like or care about you at the start of the game
you spend the game upping attributes like charm and people like you more

To be fair 3,4,5 are detached from the first 3, and it's not like you can do a formula for 1, IS and EP outside of "Nyarlathotep is revealed to be behind everything"

Persona didn't start with 3, and Nyarly's meme magic won't make it so.

>doing Tatsuya's dungeon
>get to the end
>decision point
>"My heart belongs to Eikichi!"
>party laughs it off
>locked out of all romance

IS is the cruelest Persona.

He was Demiurge's buttslut for 99% of the game he's a bitch bro

Does Eikichi laugh it off too?
That's 2 cruel.

>dressing androgynously with stupid hair and makeup is a rough street-punk type thing to do
This feels dated in a good way

>made morgana
>didn't make morgana female
Real spoilers here. This is why Igor is a bitch.

fuck your irrelevant games
no one cares

Yaldy is literally poor man's Nyar though

>wah wah don't talk about games I don't like

IS was an old game user. They were both allowed and capable at the time of making it good.

>To be fair 3,4,5 are detached from the first 3
Canonically they take place in the same universe as EP and P3's TV confirms that

No you described P3 onwards. AKA: baby's first JRPG

>irrelevant games
We're trying to not talk about Persona 3 and after.

Well yeah.
IS may as well just not exist.

I mean their formula. There's no more butterfly mask dude, Nyarly who you just know to be behind everything ready to asspul twist out of his ass, and a cast that actually stays relevant until throughout the game

things that dont happen in 1 and 2. in 3 they didnt disband and they still have access to their powers.

I still think Innocent Sin followed by Eternal Punishment is cool as fuck for a naming convention
maybe I'm just a big ol dweeb though

Nyarly and Philemon will never be back user. We have to let go, they got too btfo.

>they still have access to their powers
Does it even count with an evoker?

They always used an evoker. So yeah, it fucking counts.

Fuuka didn't need it. And neither did any of the older casts.
How can they keep what most of them didn't really have in the first place?

Why is Lavenza the butterfly anyways? Is Phil just dead now?

They can apparently summon without an Evoker if they concentrate hard enough. Hell, Fuuka's so goddamn powerful she can summon her persona in the real world without using any external influence.

Well you can meet Kandori before going to hospital but most people miss that little event. So it'd be 3 dungeons into the SEBEC route before you see Kandori.

>games of a series are serial

WOW

it's alright when japan does it!

Also yes I realized I had a brain fart but technically he can be the final boss if you some how managed to get the bad ending.

Well and it also fits the theme of the games which are written as a duology from the get go

Regardless my point is op is wrong

>why is it Eikichi Mishina?

That's a weird way of spelling Katsuya "I love cats, my brother, and making pies" Suou.

No, it's a really sensible way of spelling "Eikichi 'Michel' Mishina"

I wonder if Tatsuya is on the computer again.

I feel bad that Eikichi didn't get a rehash version of himself in P5.
Me too.

>"Eikichi 'Michel' Mishina"

>is a nobody/outcast that nobody likes
That's definitely not true of 3 or 4
