Defeat villain

he cute though

You're forgetting Mitsuo made friends with Junpei and Yukari BEFORE shit started going crazy. Charisma helps, but you hardly need to be a Chad to have friends.

I mean you have to understand the specific mindset to think about why Adachi does the things he does

>Spent most of my youth for this noble goal
>Noble goal is actively corrupted in the mind
>Already 27. Late 20's, don't know anything other than this goal that I striven for
>Could start again but that would mean I'd be in my late 40's before I actually get to a certain level

Honestly most people in his situation would either suicide or put on fake happy smiles and drink themselves at night which is what a lot of Japanese actually do

The only problem that I can find with his motivations is that although he believes and loves solitude he still goes out of his way to involve others which is a contradiction to his personality
If adachi really believed in his mind view he would do something like
>I'll tear the mask off of this garbage society
Basically trying to confront people with their persona's and what they actually believe rather than just murdering random people for ????

His philosophy should be
>The weak should fear the strong
Not
>LET'S PLAY A GAME GOOBERGATERS
Fucking joker villain

is Adachi peak incel?

Not really. Too charismatic.

In real life Adachi would've gotten laid.

adachi did nothing wrong. not his fault those bitches could not face thier shadows.

lol, Atlus writing.

Wow, it's almost as if Adachi wasn't being taken in because he's a dick but because he killed a bunch of people.

Adachi killed people before he got his powers?

doesn't beating the shit out of the villain just cause the process to repeat?
>Bowser: I can't find love so i'm going to terrorize the shroom kingdom
>Mario: not so fast, with my love for peach as my motivator i shall stop you *beats the shit out of bowser and takes his lover away motivating him to start the process all over again*

it doesn't repeat if you also kill the villain after the severe beating

But if the hero has strong Morals he more than likely won't do that because killing is wrong.

fine, after the severe beating villain gets killed by even bigger villain or he sacrifices himself as some desperate means of atonement or some shit

Well he was clearly going to rape/kill the reporter before he realized he had powers.
You are overthinking since Mario is a game for kids following the simplest of tropes. But the gist of it is that Bowser wants to marry Peach and she doesnt want to, so he will kidnap her until she eventually relents. Also expanding his own kingdom is good for him.
A lot of people are shit, you cant control everyone, bullying will never stop existing, even if we indoctrinate everyone to be nice to each other, assholes still find a way to become "evil"

The initial problem isn't that the villian was bullied, it's that the villian thought that having evil done to them justified their own evil. It never has and never will.

not necessarily
most people who aren't cartoon villains would get the message

I disagree

Seek God.

Which one?

Izanami

Turning the other cheek is for losers.

Well that's racist, giving a "gaijin" a fucking huge nose. Which is odd, as it's usually the Japanese mutts who have huge & wide noses.

Pleb

Doesnt even matter because the Good and True end pretty much tell you that the world will be destroyed in a few months because no one will stop Izanami and the big eye ball.
Now you are just going to die because you sided with a killer for no real good reason.

That ending was kino

>If you work hard and better yourself life will always turn out perfectly
Some things are out of your hands bro. Sometimes it's better to cut your losses and to stop giving a shit.
Bitches and Whores man

Remember he threw that reporter at the tv without knowing she wins go inside it. He was absolutely planningg on at least seriously injuring her.

Am I the only one who sees the thumbnail and thinks "We'll be right back"?

Are you retarded? He said Mitsuo, not Mitsuru.

This, desu.

Is it moral to let a killer go on to kill more when you could have stopped them?

all of them. its jut the same Absolute wearing different hats but you gotta look at all of them to properly understand. its like a magic eye puzzle

But people are a product of their environment. Like the quality of your life is greatly impacted by the people in your community that you're forced to grow up with.
If that's not some RNG fate bullshit then idk what is.

In a smart situation, the charachter with the moral high ground will stop the evil person and punish them with a situation where they cant escape or go and make things worse.

>punish them with a situation where they cant escape or go and make things worse.
Like death?

you choose to like and talk to him as the mc, still doesnt fix years of isolation and him talking to himself of ending the world, the second he kills the first person he spirals out of control mentally and there is no going back.

Natural talent exists.
There are PLENTY of physical barriers set by genetics rather than effort.

Not saying it doesn't
Saying if you decide to not evenn try because of it than you are a garbage human being

I think you underestimate how much effort it requires to become a police officer in the first place.

Bunch of fucking normalfags itt

You're replying to b8

>If you decide not to play basketball because you were born with stumps for legs you are a garbage human being

It's deserved. Adachi had Dojima, Nanako, that old lady, and even Yu. But he refused to appreciate it.

>keikaku a villain
>offer him friendship immediately after
>act surprised when he tries to kill you for keikaku-ing you

What a scrub.

Yes but the idea that the world is shit and everyone should suffer because some people are dealt a better hand than others since birth and therefore you should stop trying and rage against those people that have nothing do with you is dumb. Yukiko was right when she called Adachi a manchild.
More like "if you curse those with the legs because they can play basketball and you dont you are a garbage human being"

Adachi is literally the ideal bf to fuck and then commit suicide with.

Yukiko should look at some of the case files of criminals
She would change her mind quit quickly about the world being shit
And Japans caste system is still quite visible compared to the USA, Adachi would have seen this far more than some girl in a country inn

Was adachi a virgin?

Its not uncommon for police officers in Japan to get molested during hazing so I doubt it

For a more generalized quotation
>Barely a day has passed in recent months without newspaper headlines revealing case after case of police corruption and negligence, including drug abuse, extortion, bribery, sexual assault, false reports, hazing of fellow officers and cover-ups.

I hope they remove projared from the remake.

Adachi deserves no pity when he's literally the only person in the entire game stupid enough to take the "you will find your soulmate" part of the rumor seriously, everyone else just thought it was laughs, or quickly realized it was something else.

>not becoming bitter to become better
>not channeling pure spite and rage into self improvement and shove it in peoples faces
Step it the fuck up anonykun.

>he's literally the only person in the entire game stupid enough to take the "you will find your soulmate" part of the rumor seriously
When did he say this?

>not channeling pure spite and rage into self improvement and shove it in peoples faces
Ergo, become better, you just supported what the pic says.

Putting aside that the article offers no citations for anything, likely since it's a reproduction of a print article, it doesn't even mention what you said about police getting molested.

We've heard that one before Eva.

When he talked about getting jealous over the two girls at the start, which is why he got mad and shoved them into the TV.

you know who was really to blame for all this bullshit?
women.

This
Adachi did literally nothing wrong and every counter argument is basically just hurrr incels

I know right? i mean, he saw that reporter woman on TV and decided he liked her, and she didnt even know who she was when he approached her! what a fucking cunt

Persona 4 isn't a deep game. Stop trying to act like it is.

Pic related is another more extreme example than Adachi

Attached: 2.png (512x512, 114K)

its the perfect excuse when someone has nothing to lose and nothing to gain except revenge on the world

I'd seek Izanami if the game fuckin LET ME

I really hope Persona 6 doesnt have a "seemingly nice guy who turns out to be a dick with almost no reason" character again. 3 games in a row is more than enough, but i'm not too hopeful. just like i'm sure there will be another annoying mascot character, probably a bird this time

None of them had no reason, and in fact all of them had perfectly valid reasons that were in keeping with the themes of the respective games, allowing them to be presented as the opposites of the heroes.

So in universe is adachi attractive?

I don't remember any character commenting on his appearance one way or the other, so in-universe he's probably just considered an average ordinary-looking dude, which fits.

it's not that it isn't deep, it's that it's bad.

You'd have a case if most of the arguments (and this applies to Persona as a whole) were "this is bad because it's so shallow" and not "this is bad because it makes no sense (in other words, because a shallow and simple game went over my head)" like 95% of the arguments seem to be.

>that one bad end where Naoto is killed by a shadow while on the phone to you

akechi is a victim of the foster care system with severe daddy issues (since his father abandoned him at a young age). his entire life is built around trying to get the acknowledgement and encouragement that his parents never gave him. it's not hard to see why he turned out the way he did.
in contrast, adachi is just a bored and lonely incel. boo hoo, his parents cared about his grades in school when he was a kid, not much of a sob story there.
akechi is more of a jun than an adachi, although he never got a redemption arc like jun did.

Jun had the excuse of being mindfucked by Nyarly, Akechi only got a smartphone app and decided to become a mass murderer.

This is how I function.

akechi was mindfucked by yaldy.

Nope, all he got was an app. Everything else was his own motivation with direction from Shido.

Is there a game where the protagonist kills the main villian and kills himself right after so the cycle doesn't continue?

Attached: images (1).jpg (259x194, 15K)

he didn't just get an app, he got the persona powers to do yaldy's bidding. and all that shit with shido was all part of yaldy's rigged game.

The moral of the story is: conform, or be demonised.

SMT4 law route has you nuke yourself alongside Tokyo.

I don't know. I can kinda relate. Imagine seeing your soulmate and when you meet her she rejects you. I wouldn't have a shit fit but I can perfectly understand why.

But who would be friends with a vindictive asshole?

Goku

Yeah that can work. I was hoping something outside SMT. Just literally someone who's so full with revenge even after the "if you kill him you will be no better than him." He just ouright kills them and kills himself instantly right after.

Well it's true

Referring to Adachi's situation though, he wouldn't have had problems with women or friends if he was a chad. Was he right to be upset and kill sluts? Probably not. Was he wrong in his views? No.

Befriend each child and then kill them all before peaceing out and letting what happens happen.

That's exactly what he does though, he uses his power to be popular and to gain his father's recognition. He would still be a loser otherwise

Stop using your shitty buzzword for Adachi.
Mitsuo is the one that actually fits it

mitsuo and adachi are both incels.

Disrespecting women ≠ incel

>in prison
>incel

Japanese prison isn't like that dumb mutt

That fighting addicted retard truly is a treasure

I mean, the contrast between him and Adachi really stresses the idea that "it's the thought that counts." Adachi only killed two people whereas Akechi killed way more, but the latter (even if you prefer Adachi as a character) comes off as less villainous due to his more sympathetic backstory and (arguably sympathetic) motives.

That's been a thing since Persona 2 so it's unlikely to change.

“Tohru was initially going to be a red herring in the story, so I intentionally made him a rather suspicious character. When we decided to change his role, I tweaked his design to make him someone who looks like your average Joe and puts others at ease. He is often kind and usually awkward.

Tohru used to be an elite detective, so he’s actually quite good at his job, but I find that many people who are genuinely talented tend to have the quirks or are lacking in other areas, and that’s something I tried to reflect in Tohru’s design. Tohru almost always has bedhead and his tie is perpetually crooked. These details reveal that he’s not very concerned with his fashion and appaerance.”

Well, say what you will about the character. They did a nice job to make him likable before revealing he's a psycho.

I honestly really like Adachi. He's probably my most favourite human villian in the whole megaten franchise.
