Heh, they were a lot more blunt about certain things in this particular fight. Not surprising considering time constraints.

Spoiler for a recent Atlus obssession in their games:

EDIT: And we finally got a zoom-in shot of Rise's eyes when summoning. I was always pissed at the game for not having one for her. I mean, Fuuka got one in P3, so why didn't Rise?

episode 10 was fun with good action.

I like the way they portrayed the scanning of Rises's shadow and persona. Love the sound effects and way the screen lights up with information.

The way Shadow Kuma and Teddie resolved itself was different.
For the others, they were the ones that accepted the shadow as part of themselves.

For Shadow Kuma, its more the shadow itself that accepted Teddia instead of the other way around.

It looked kind of awkward when the MC fell on top of Rise when Shadow Kuma was sucking everything in.

Rise getting clingy to the MC now after the battle, Yukiko has some competition..

Woah there goes the budget for the rest of season.

The art actually looked good more consistently this time.

I was expecting them to amp the fanservice up to eleven in this ep, but it was actually no worse than the game. If only Rise had waited a few seconds more before proclaiming her shadow was not herself...

Kanji was so bloody awesome he summoned up a new cool BGM at the same time as his persona. Hell yeah!

MeisterBabylon · 2011-12-09, 09:19

Yeah, if only...

But I got my Rise episode, and there was no Louise screeching in sight, and so I am a happy Kuma!

Om Nerabdator · 2011-12-09, 09:37

lol at yuu trying to record rise ^^

I liked the pace of this episode it done rise and teddies shadows in one ep, pity the next ep is a serious one, the best thing about P4 is all the funny everyday things they get up to in the game

This. I don't mind if they have to make a 20 min junes frozen screen episode to save on production cost while going over S.Links. But please go all out on battles. I re-watched first few episodes and felt like the presentation on Yukiko's castle was done 300% better. Don't get me wrong, I think they had the right idea with the multiple Rise's personalities and Kuma's struggle with himself, but god, the animation that received critical hits on the past few episodes is on the ground dizzy now. And no I'm not being picky because some animator said something. Just watch that stupid first shadow that was trying to LICK Yuu. Izanagi combat was AMAZING. Now look at all the personas at this episode fighting something THAT CAN READ YOUR EVERY MOVE or SUCK YOU INTO DARK FOG. No movement, persona floats on screen.

I love P4, game and anime, but it's really hard to give it a 5( it does deserve it story-wise) when the whole battle against two bosses felt so stupid compared with them fighting Hableries on the first 2 episodes. It's because it started so well that it hurts so much to see it going down. Seriously, where is the donate to the studio button? If we all pitch in we might get animation back the way it was when they where at liquor store before they animate

Spoiler for character:

I thought it was an okay episode. Is it weird that i thought the best part of the episode was Kanji doing a "Megane" bit?

Chaos2Frozen · 2011-12-10, 02:35

Shadow Kuma sounded totally different from the game clip I'd saw, in fact- he sounded more like the English version than the original Japanese one

... Regardless he's still the more badass shadow, and might I say- actually kinda creepy

I was kinda hoping Rise would get a similar treatment like Yukiko- one whole episode with more flashbacks and monologues and melodrama, then maybe Shadow Kuma would be the next week's but oh well.

Just one of the many reasons that dungeon is informally called the "porno dungeon."

MeoTwister5 · 2011-12-10, 06:39

Is it just me or are they trying really, really hard for a Lovers Arcana ending?

ookamigirl · 2011-12-10, 08:11

Identity crisis..
Rise's persona sure made things hard.
Well, now she joined the club too with her Persona.
Who knew Kuma had a persona too & a really dangerous one.

I think it's way too early to tell, it's natural there would be more focus now because this is her arc, but lets wait and see whether it continues.
