To be fair Narukami only hit on some random girls. I would have like to see how it would have ended if he tried to balance out taking all four girls on a date at once

Looking forward to the beach episode.

Ok that was hilarious. This is turning out to be very very good indeed. I was definitely not expecting to enjoy this as much as I am. Great job even if the quality is showing sometimes.

Also I was not expecting to have Marie-chan give a performance for the ed. Nice!

Now excuse me while I go for a second run at the game (3rd overall)

FlareKnight · 2014-07-17, 17:39

Have to say it was a comical move to combine the shopping trip with the Up Close and Personal Plan

. Turned it into quite the hilarious affair.

Nice to add a different flair to these events so it easy completely predictable. A good fight put up by Yu to fit everything into that one day. Made for a pretty fun episode.

Preview definitely has me eager to see next week's episode as well.

Good lord that was funny, watching Yu today made me flash back to those painful max social link runs on Persona 3 and Persona 4. That constant war with your schedule to keep everything on track, and the constant fear of making one wrong move that brings everything crashing down.

I feel your pain Yu, keep up the fight bro.

omega253 · 2014-07-17, 22:06

Ouch, Yu. Funny thing is, this can actually happen in the game if your Social Links meet each other sometimes. It can be a bit tense sometimes.

I liked the little snip in the OP where it showed Yu with his stats maxing out behind him.

Marie in beachwear *drool*

I bet you basically fainted when the ending arrived. Also, to get into my Teddie state of mind, you can add the, girls in Shin Megami Tensei world (Persona/Catherine/etc.) to your, have no nipples, bingo book. But yeah, back on topic, I actually didn't mind that we didn't focus on the main story. This is gonna multiply Marie's fans to the infinity fold.

Key Board · 2014-07-18, 00:08

You know.. the first episode was bad.. but in an enjoyable ridiculous way
the 2nd episode was simply bad

Gundamx · 2014-07-18, 05:53

so P4A = focused on main story with some random social link scene
while P4GA = focused on social link story with some random main story scene

revive4563 · 2014-07-18, 05:58

I love Marie's poem of painful youth.

Maybe she is one of the cutest tsundere chara. Kirino must learn tsundereness from her.

It's worth watching this only for Marie.

JiCi · 2014-07-18, 06:45

Ok, is it me or the animation quality kinda... changed?

jeroz · 2014-07-18, 06:57

If you mean different studio, yes

Kanon · 2014-07-18, 12:48

That was very funny. Being a Persona protagonist is tough sometimes, you always have to keep everybody happy. It has its perks, though.

Beach episode next? Sweet! Marie's swimsuit looks great

Nerroth · 2014-07-18, 14:58

I like some of the minor touches in this show, like how Yu's event calendar has a similar template to that used for P4G's main menu, or how the running silhouettes from the start screen are in the new OP.

Chaos2Frozen · 2014-07-18, 20:53

My friend pointed out that for a brief segment the OP showed a Maxed out Narukami

But I guess even that won't help him be at two places at once lol. Tsk tsk, doesn't he know that the perfect plan is only perfect if everyone follows it

?

The new ED is very nice.

"I'm about to be born damnit!" OH GOD... Is this what I think it is

?!

JiCi · 2014-07-18, 21:53

Forgot to add: Marie freaking out over a poem made my day XD

Kerfirou · 2014-07-18, 22:25

Damn it, we don't get to see this Yuu reaction to Kanji's Dungeon.....

Netto Azure · 2014-07-19, 01:39

"First flag has appeared... Does he take the "Romance" or the "Bro-mance" route? Neither! He takes the Harem Route!"

MeoTwister5 · 2014-07-19, 07:02

I guess having such ridiculous amounts of swag has its drawbacks too. Everyone wants a piece of you but you can't exactly divide and conquer.

Rias · 2014-07-19, 10:05

Yuu's stats are definitely maxed out, according to the radio show. Aniplex staff has confirmed that "...while you just said he's on his 2nd time around (referring to Namikawa's comment), it could also be his 3rd. Or maybe his 5th. Well there's no mistake that his stats are maxed out."

By the way, during the news program text for 6 pm, regarding Nanako, if you read the first character of each sentence from top to bottom...

Definitely running into the downside of having so many social links and trying to keep everything in order

. Kind of had to push things so he wouldn't disappoint anyone.
