The problem here is that Adachi is also a whiny loser that can't appreciate what he has either.

I think what they were trying to go for is that everyone feels like that. Doesn't mean you should sperg out, you should bond with others and figuratively help each other.

Then I saw the golden animation and during the Adachi fight he mentions on how it's just licking each others wounds and I'm conflicted. In one way, I get it. He's trying to avoid connections so to him bonding with others is just licking each other's wounds. It makes sense, licking each other's wounds is a terrible thing to do. I don't think the cast is doing that though. They grow and learn from their mistakes rather than just circlejerking on each other.

That's what I took from it anyway.

>eurocuck is obsessed
Shock and awe!

He tried to talk to a girl and failed. That's it.

How aren't those real problems? I'm sure we face problems even more petty than those.

Plus everyone has problems, something small for you could be a huge problem for someone else.

>Character in story has mental breakdown and becomes utterly incoherant, practically having a seizure their thoughts are so erratic.
>"Lol this writing is shit oh my god the writers must be retarded"
I take it you don't understand how a lot of things work, not just storytelling.

Adachi did not even had a problem, he worked in a city nothing ever fucking happened and just chilled, he was also lazy as fuck and at blame for making the fuck up that tossed him in Inaba

Mitsuo was a killer

I didn't take it the way you did. To me that character seems like a vehicle for the writing staff to discuss the idea of how a person handles something they dislike happening in their life. He got rejected and got murderously angry about it, and the writing staff was expressly condemning his self-righteous indignation and incel rage. I don't think he would've gotten such an unhappy, bleak resolution if he had taken the rejection better and went on with his day instead of hardcore sperging out over how he wanted to pee in Larry's butt really badly.

Mitsuo literally drove himself insane to avoid having to confront his shadow. Did you want the IT to break into a mental institution to have a social link with someone they thought was the killer?

I can relate to him. Imagine working your ass off only realizing in the corporate world it's only those people who act fake and brown nose who get ahead. It can be frustrating seeing how everyone seems to take the side of sociopaths who pretend their way through life.
I'm not saying all places work environment is like that but it's common.
Then getting demoted while everyone you looked down on just keeps getting ahead, it's demoralizing. The thing is you should appreciate and make the best of "your own path."

Asian culture is so fixated for being "perfect", being "high status" that when you fail, it's the end of the world. It's a reflection to appreciate what you have. Life isn't over if you have some setbacks. Don't focus too much on the past.

Well Adachi is a serial killer so they're kinda justified in beating him up even if they're all just kids with 1st world problems

Keep in mind when he says he made "one little mistake" this is coming from someone who thinks sexual assault and murder are reasonable things for him to do.

Was this person in a coma when they played the game? None of that justifies murdering a bunch of people just to feel special. His critique of the Investigation Squad is true, but it's also hypocritical - the same could be applied to him. That is why they call him the child, as the Investigation Squad has, through the course of the story, turned themselves away from trying to find meaning in external things while Adachi can't escape his need for success, his need to be 'special'.

Edgelords need to be gassed.

He was right but he acted wrong, he should have found a way to fix his life instead of lashing out at the world, everyone in the IT after accepting their shadows and going through their slinks find what they want for life and happiness

>Unless you're literally starving you don't have a real problem!
This is coming from the board that throws temper tantrums when toys don't turn out how they want or they aren't allowed to play a toy online anymore.

I don't think it would translate well here but remember Japanese workers are heavily stressed out and overworked. I wouldn't be surprised if most workers just think of stabbing everyone on the train ride home. I guess this might not apply to Adachi since he did mention work in the boonies is easy but it could just be him having fluff talk.

I think the main issue is that people misunderstand what the cast means when "HE'S WRONG." They aren't denying on how bullshit society is. They're denying that their friendship isn't fake. On how people aren't willing to accept you if you try.

>I think the main issue is that people misunderstand what the cast means when "HE'S WRONG." They aren't denying on how bullshit society is. They're denying that their friendship isn't fake. On how people aren't willing to accept you if you try.
That is true, they even say at the end that Izanami was right about people wanting to hide and not accept the truth

I'm not doubting he didn't work hard or study his ass off. I'm just saying at one point he says that "one tiny mistake" got him sent to the boonies. Considering we know he's an unhinged psycho, it's safe to assume that "little mistake" was probably a bigger deal than he's letting on.

how are you posting from prison, adachi?

Attached: Cabbage.png (800x569, 839K)

I really like P4 because it's a connects a lot more to me compared to the others.

Adachi is an everyday man. We can see anyone in the work force like him just snap. We know how bullshit it is that everything is past through brownnosing. You dont even need a backstory for why he acts that way. For people going through school or work, they KNOW why he is the way he is. The problem is that there's two ways that people try to solve their problems.

1) bottle it in and just become jealous of others.
2) let it go and appreciate what you already have. accept your flaws and learn to face yourself. You aren't perfect, nobody is. No matter what you do, you'll always hit a bump on the road, but you shouldn't be always self reliant and destructive in fixing it, you should be open to people and ask for help when you need it.

I guess. What I'm trying to say is that all people are unhinged psychos. There's always thoughts like "I'm going to fucking kill my boss today.". "People who cheat on others are worse than scum, they deserve whatever comes to them."
It's normal to feel this way. Most people usually rant it out to family or friends or just release it.
Adachi instead decides to bottle it in and just fucking loses it. Bit of head canon, but I'm sure right after he raped the newscaster, I wouldn't be surprised if he killed himself right after or as soon as he gets caught.

He only became a killer after the world shat on him for the crime of existing.

I can;t play P3 because the MMO section makes me too nostalgic

Most of the group was shat on, none of them became a killer because of attention

Persona 4 makes me miss my highschool days....
Truly the best Persona game ever made. Only edgy people hates this game.

Attached: IT.jpg (2560x1600, 417K)

Where was he shat on for the crime of existing? Show me evidence of this happening. Him breathing through his mouth and throwing a tantrum when a girl didn't immediately say yes is not "the world shitting on him"

Mitsuo was interesting because he's like Adachi but he releases his destructive emotions on the outside. Being a teenager there's a bunch of mixed thoughts with self depreciation and just wanting someone.

I know the writers didn't intend to write him this way or maybe they did, but take a look if you swap the perspective in the confession.
If you were to put an average teenager, some thoughts would be like
>I know I'm pretty ugly, but maybe if I hang with Larry, everyone might start to like me or talk to me.
>Larry is a nice girl, she would probably understand....
>H-hey why don't we hang out somewhere
>Uhhh who are you? No.
>...fuck fuck fuck, I guess nobody will accept me after all. FUCK THIS SOCIETY FUCK SCHOOL IM DONE WITH THIS FUCKING SHIT
Doesn't even help that much with Chie getting all defensive. It even makes sense he would go for king moron to kill too because while king moron is a good guy, he isn't if you aren't open to him and with Mitsuo being insecure of himself he'd probably ping pong between being honest and dishonest with him.

I think what the writers wanted you to do was to project onto the characters how you felt. It could also be me speaking out of my ass.

This but unironically

>H-hey why don't we hang out somewhere
That's not quite how it went down
>H-hey why don't we hang out somewhere
>Uhhh who are you?
>ARE YOU COMING OR NOT!?
>N-no
>FINE FUCK SOCIETY

Persona is for normalfags and people who want to distance themselves from reality as much as possible.

I guess another way to think of it was
>Hey the transfer student got to know her pretty well
>Maybe I can finally get some friends too.
...
>Uhh who are you?
>The hell? What's wrong with me. That guy gets to talk to her normally. The fuck?! AM I REALLY THAT UNLIKABLE? WILL NO ONE HANG OUT WITH ME?
>WELL ARE YOU GOING TO COME OR NOT?
>N-no.
>WELL FUCK YOU THOT. STUPID ASS BITCH DICKS UP THE TRANSFER STUDENT BUT CANT SPEND SOME TIME HANGING OUT.

>These aren't real problems because I don't have them
Amazing post, just what you would expect from the intellectual heavyweights of Yea Forums

This only makes him sound more unstable and unreasonable I hope you realize.

>Distance themselves from reality
Yeah like people who pretend is actually what happened. Those people.

Ah I see what you mean. I think the lesson here is to better yourself. Mitsuo thought of himself as nothing so it reflects onto others. I think the main idea for Mitsuo was for people to love themselves before they can be loved by others.

Says the classic SMTfags who loves destruction and killing innocent people

>richgirl upset that she might have to inherit her parent's business

....Then sell it after you inherit?

Godamn this game sounds terrible.

>It can be frustrating seeing how everyone seems to take the side of sociopaths who pretend their way through life.
That's literally Adachi tho, and no one took his side.

That user simplified her problem a lot

People who want to pretend Atlus does not see them as a loser on the same level as Mitsuo.
Exactly, fuck all the gay wannabe normalfag waifushit. I wanna be hardcore.

She's a Japanese girl inheriting a historic family inn that's one of the few draws to a dying town. It keeps many people employed and the deputy mayor of the city pretty much tells her "we're all expecting you to inherit it after you graduate" She has an enormous amount of pressure to inherit it and run it for the rest of her life. The fact that your response to this is probably "LMAO JUST SELL IT" is indicative of why she actually does have a serious problem.

Also why are you in a thread for a game you haven't played?

>your first world problems don't compare to me so I'm justified in killing people and tricking a man in killing more people

I wouldn't say 4 to be honest. At least before it lost its way in the sequels and spinoffs. I feel like you have a better time of you're in the shoes of someone like Adachi or at least someone who's felt the same as him. I think that's why I liked it a bit more than 5. I related to the characters way more in 4.

ignorant for you to say that without context.

I see what you mean. That was a poor choice in words on my part. I guess I'm more talking about people who make it their sole duty to get to the top. The ones who brown nose every step in the way.

>People who want to pretend Atlus does not see them as a loser on the same level as Mitsuo.
Mitsuo is someone who probably poop socks and no life's through video games. If you don't do this and let video games interfere with other aspects of your life then Atlus isn't talking about you.

Go back to EdgeEmolord

>The ones who brown nose every step in the way.
We don't actually know why people got promoted over him

Yu is not a chad, he's a loser with no friends who had to work hard to improve himself after his parents tossed him to the curb.
Adachi got the same chance to build a new life in a small town, the same power bestowed on him, and he even befriended the same man that took care of Yu. They both got the same advantages, but Yu made the most of it while Adachi played childish games.
They had the same disadvantages and the same potential ahead of them. That's the irony, and it's why Adachi's line about some people being blessed with success is bullshit. He was never any less blessed than Yu was.

I think Atlus is talking about those awkward kids in school. Those who have a tough time relating to others. I'm sure some of the writers have been in that position and had negative thoughts over the other kids for rejecting them. All they did was tune that to 11.

Really the main message for 4 was STOP SPERGING OUT.

I thought you said the game appealed to normalfags too.

Those aren’t real problems

Both, normalfags and wannabe normalfags.

It's a reflection on Japanese society, user.
You know those who get "a head" get ahead in life. Who knows, maybe that's what they weren't going for though. That was my take on it.

Hmm I guess even if you believe they were promoted by being a good person, Adachi can just project that onto him. Either way the lesson still stands for him to appreciate what he's got and to stop comparing himself to others.

Maybe this privileged whore deserves to be killed them if that’s all she cares about

Well. I guess that's all the discussion that's going to happen. The shitposters have arrived.

Yeah except the part where the Pahntom Thieves did just that by getting him to confess and people were still going to vote for him. Like bastardo would do anything.

He went up and asked a pretty girl to become his girlfriend after stalking her, and then he went full Elliot Rodger

He just needed to enter the palace and he won, nothing would stop him after getting in

>He just needed to enter the palace and he won, nothing would stop him after getting in
But he did enter user, and his dad already has measures in place to make sure he never exited, and guess what? Those measures worked. Akechi never had a chance. He was a tool in every sense of the word.

what the fuck are you even saying

Fuck off, jojobronie. No one thinks you’re funny or cool.

I think the reason being is that Persona 4 is more fixated on Japanese society. If you don't think about it, a lot of stuff goes over your head.

Are you schizophrenic?

Can I actually have some discussion here or is it pretty much over for tonight?

If you get a power fantasy from SMT then you've probably never beaten a single one of the games

>Implying Persona makes you funny and cool

>Explain to me Akechi's character. I want to have a discussion. I am not here to shitpost. I am all open ears.
All he wanted was attention, someone wanting him, and revenge against his father, his revenge plan was make Shido get on top of the world then expose him by saying he was his son and maybe fucking his shadow in the palace, by helping Shido he got the attention and someone wanting him, his revenge plan was all going to go well till the PT's appeared
The measures just worked cause he was fucked from the PT's fight, Akechi x Shido 1v1 would end up easy for Akechi with a real gun

>The dude soloed palaces for 2 years, Shido's palace is nothing
He literally jobs to faceless mooks, if you actually think he could beat shido’s shadow you have legitimate brain damage and are probably a threat to the people around you

Yeah you’re definitely schizophrenic

no one in persona 5 is an outcast

Yeah after fighting a whole team of persona users, and he survived as of P5 Royal

The point was Akechi thinks he's a keikaku master a la Light Yagami when he's the one who is seen through and manipulated by others. He's utterly shocked that Shido actually planned to murder him.

Yea Forums tries way too hard to be edgy?

>t. school shooter

Literally all of them you twit, and all of them were outcasts because of false judgements and perceptions. It's the entire theme of the game, even the confidants fit.

Scooby-Doo is based though.

Shido was expecting him to attack to begin with and wanted to betray him first.
Even if Akechi went and attacked Shido after he won and even without the Phantom Thieves, Shido's shadow would get the jump on him because he knew Akechi was planning something.

I don't think that contradicts what I mean by too many chefs in the kitchen. It definitely did feel in general Persona 5 was a bit all over the place in terms of what they wanted to do. They'll introduce things midway through just to side step it shortly after.
It's been a while since I played it but I felt Okumura - Yaldy's part was a bit messy in my own opinion.

>Yea Forums always hated it
Not true. Only zoomers desperate for ecred hate it and pretend to like 2 and 3 despite never actually playing them. The game has 4 banners for a reason.

>I don't think that contradicts what I mean by too many chefs in the kitchen. It definitely did feel in general Persona 5 was a bit all over the place in terms of what they wanted to do. They'll introduce things midway through just to side step it shortly after.
But why ? everything i said is not all over the place, its even quite simple

Where do the chiefs come into play

They're all a bunch of Cinderellas who are "outcast" through no real fault of their own. It's not just them, even most of the confidants are dindus.

No, one just has less substance and relevance than the other 2 to a community like this.
Sure, but it doesn't make you think like 3 or make you look at yourself like 5. If there was continuation between the three 4 would be considered filler.

>Beat the shit out of demons with your bare hands
>Become demon general
That sounds like a power fantasy to me, boss.

I'd say Yukiko's problem was pretty significant. She felt like she didn't have control over the outcome of her life due to her position as the heir of the inn.

This is never shown in game at all. None of them are outcasts and they all can easily fit into society for free at any time.
This is like 10% of any SMT game, the rest is tragedy.

Shido vs Akechi depending how it goes could end up for either side even with a Shido advantage, Shido Lion was not that strong and Armstrong Shido is not resistant to Guns so a real gun would go well

>being set for life is a problem
Imagine being this narcissistic

I always gave Persona 4 flak for the way it handled overarching character development, but I appreciate its themes a lot more after Persona 5.

It seems like such a strange step backwards to have a whole game about the emotional struggles of people who have to acknowledge and accept their flaws to be able to escape their dungeons, to having the next game being about the dungeons of one-note baddies that just have their cartoonishly evil aspects forcibly erased against their will. Futaba's palace was easily my favorite story-wise because it's basically a rehash of what Persona 4 did.

> less substance and relevance than the other 2 to a community like this.
Right because it isn't as edgy.

That whole final battle felt like the shadow fights but in reverse, Adachi was telling them a harsh truth, and they ignored it, and lashed out, because they knew he was right all along.

Considering the games themes are different you're quite retarded for comparing them at the first place, only one you could compare is Futaba palace and even then it its a little different

I'm talking in generally of Persona 5. I hated how they started looking at themselves retrospectively and question if they're doing the right thing only for them to get sidetracked by Morgana and Ryuji's fight. Yaldy's build up felt a bit out of nowhere and it's jarring to go from Shido to his palace. (I get it's the point, it still leaves a bad taste). I felt Akechi's revenge thing was something done last minute. I don't remember any foreshadowing towards it. I just really felt after Futaba, the story seemed rushed.

Akechi had a whole lot of foreshadow as he even lied to Shido about Morgana, Yaldy's foreshadow comes by Igor saying some cryptic stuff before Shido's dungeon, and they also know they are wrong the moment the Mc denies Yaldy's offer

The ultimate truth is that light makes right though and they beat him up so they are right

Adachi is the audience's shadow, who speaks the truths (albeit twisted) that contradict the cozy fantasy world of P4.

That they were exactly like him, except they were lucky enough to meet Yu.

Don't get me wrong. I think SMT is great. It tackles the same problems over and over again. Order is bad! Freedom is bad! Neutral is bad in a way it leaves everything up to fate.

>unless you're some ugly, pathetic incel with legitimate psychological problems
I'd just kill myself. No point in trying when you're at such a disadvantage.

P4 literally had Izanami coming out of nowhere in the last game day and only Yaldy was awkward ? Yaldy at least had 'mementos got something deep down there' to foreshadow

Izanami was optional. She's also available during rainy days.

Great take honestly, but then they made him a supervillain and superficially made him straight up evil. Japanese culture is so fucking weird, as much of a weeb as I am most times I’m glad I come from the west.

in some aspects but man the story and dungeons were ass in 5, I got half way through the cruise ship and lost all will to continue. Had to take like a year break after the shitfest that was space dungeon.

Uh huh. Let's ignore that those existential questions surrounding death are only in 10% of the game. Yea Forums is primarily a board about posturing and trying as hard as possible to seem hardcore. Which would be more effective at doing that? The game memed to be all about death or the game memed to be a scooby doo adventure? Also 4 is literally about an unfair society condemning kids but since you haven't actually played it you wouldn't know that. Unlike 5 though it's only a sub theme instead of the main theme.

She is literally the final boss and gives the true end, Yaldy is optional too if you take his deal then

Man we are the retards falling for Altus Jewtricks

I'm comparing how the two games handled themes of morality and the personification of human flaws.

Persona 4 explored flaws as a part of people that doesn't have to wholly define them, but as something that they have to acknowledge in order to grow. Persona 5 explored flaws as a pure evil supervillain that lives inside of your head that can be turned off like a light switch without your knowledge or consent.

But that is just you being idiotic and simplifying it, all the villains of P5 were only that way cause society made them that way, they also losing that over their treasure being stole goes along they falling in order with society after losing their will to go against it

We will learn one day, or maybe not

In all honesty, why can't people who love Persona 5 take criticism compared to the others in the series. You can talk shit about Persona 3 and Persona 4 but as soon as you talk shit about Persona 5 it turns into shit flinging.

You're only proving the point about their capriciousness if they changed their minds on a dime about people they willed out of existence and because of some kid. They do with what they seems good at the moment.

Imagine if P5 psychologized its villains by making the Seven Deadly Sins possess and take over their lives?

They’re already used uniquely for each villain, but it would make more sense with the Inception-like Robinhood concept of going into people’s minds and stealing their obsessions if these influences were like shadow temptations that warped their soul. The reason P4’s concept is impactful is because we relate to psychological problems as being “the bad guy” and so they take form as shadows. Why couldn’t they just make P5’s concept that some sort of evil temptation took over each villain and turned a normal life into an evil one, just like what could happen in real people’s lives? It would help make it just as relatable and impactful. It would even go along with Persona’s theme of “rebellion”, because then the heros would be rebelling against the bad evil temptations.

Instead, we have Kamoshida and the art guy and haru’s dad and Shido just kinda be evil to begin with, and the Phantom Thieves are forcefully brainwashing them into their ideal of good, and the theme of rebellion turns into the idea of rebellion against authority, which becomes even less relatable by making every authority the caricature of a corrupt adult. They really dropped the ball thematically with what could’ve been a great and interesting concept.

These things are where the game shines, and you niggers act as if pointing out the biases of human society and having a somewhat sympathetic villain equates to bad writing when it comes to P4.

That is literally what happens, each villain only became a villain because one object of their life fucked their cognition and made them abuse society for their own gain

I mean I already acknowledge they did, I just think it was implemented in a really meaningless and uninteresting way.

I thought it was weird that they wanted us to sympathize with Haru's father in the end. He was supposedly an alright guy at one point, but the entirety of his screen-time is him either working people to death or treating his daughter like trash to be sold off.

I don't see anyone complaining about the ruse and the cat was a bit of a shitpost. Yes there's more to it, the cat felt like it was losing its place in the team but in all honesty, they aren't complaining what happened, they're complaining on why. It was a major side swipe to an interesting plot point where they started doubting if they're doing the right thing.

Persona 4 is a tonally inconsistent friend simulator, who knew. There are many side characters who get treated as irredeemable laughing stock when the entire thematic undercurrent is that you shouldn't be so quick to judge and condemn others. Fucking Adachi gets given more chances by the protagonists after they learn he's a psycho than some of their classmates get just for being annoying.

Because no one is really friends with each other, only with (You). As a fantasy fulfiller, everything has to revolve around Joker and so development outside of that suffers. You don't get any meaningful interparty relationships because the game's too focused on making Joker look good.

Shut up you useless stupid cat.

One reason I liked Dancing in Starlight was that it gave the PT time to actually be themselves without a huge plot going on to draw their attention. They all feel like kids.

Adachi apologists are fucking stupid.
The whole point is "you're free to feel whatever you like, but don't inconvenience everyone else because you're fucking bored, scum."

Why did you quote my post pointing out that the image about Adachi and the greentext about Mitsuo are flatout lies as an example of not accepting the flaws? It's not a flaw if you have to lie.

I want Fatlus posting to return

Too bad it had the worst song choices out of the three

You're missing the point. I'm saying that it completely changes ship. They sidelined it. Nobody likes that shit.

Maybe it's just me but I felt like the dancing game for SEES wasn't okay. I can't buy the SEES party just being all gung ho over dancing.
PT...maybe, but it's a bit of a stretch.

Yeah, just got through a part where Yosuke called for a group study session with everyone and I turned him down. I thought maybe I wouldn't see my party members that day since they'd be with Yosuke, but no, everyone's just fucking wandering around in town.

The IT's made out to be a group of friends, but just like the PT, you barely see any of them interact with anyone besides you. I don't know if it's Golden exclusive, but when you head to Junes at night with Dojima, you get these small cutscenes of your party members shopping with each other. That's the sort of shit that gives life to the other characters. Small interactions taking place without you being involved. I really want Royal to do more of that, but I'm damn sure it's just all going to be focused around Joker again.

But it made sense storywise and it also goes well because some bigger shit happened so they gotta focus on that, and when Mona comes back Haru gives them a reason to go after Okumura and they take the bait

Because their game is edgy tryhard shenanigans and they haven't grown out of being 14.

Oh no I get that. But I'd be embarrassed to dance for my coworkers. Jumped would probably laugh at that shit and Yukari would.just be "you serious?" It feels a bit out of character for them to be like yeah sure! Let's do it!

Also I can't believe there's no whims of fate(normal).

Okay.

I don't remember where but i think they say that was January SEES so that is why they are more happier than usual

The ones who would feel embarrassed embrace it as "Well if it means getting out of here, I'll give it my all."
desu both games are excuses to have the characters in a more relaxed setting and neither pretends to be anything else. The "it's a dream" thing gets stated early to get it out of the way and to tell you to just enjoy it.

>edgy
SMT is chuuni, just like Purseowner.

This is a completely modern take on SMT, there was nothing tryhard or edgy about the original SMT games, they were just cool. You're just a big faggot.

Persona games are some of the best forms of escapism, right next to VN, of course it's going to have retarded morals that only speaks to people who barely have a clue how the world actually works

Also Japanese tends to absorb western philosophical concepts without digesting them, which results in inconsistent morals and usually concludes on the regurgitating of what they've heard/read
TLDR: Don't to stick too hard with the moral values of Japanese games, they tend to be inconsistent and only speaks on a surface level

It's almost like they're Japanese games made by Japanese people living and working in Japan about Japanese people also living and working in Japan designed for a target audience of Japanese people living and working in Japan, and judging them by western moral standards is retarded.

Persona is a series that just isn't for me, I've played 4 for over 60 hours to try my absolute best to finish it, but I quit because it's so poorly written, immature, and has boring dungeon and combat mechanics.
Pretty sure the combat killed it for me the quickest, I got sick of it only 10 hours in.

In the west too most of the time devs rehash philosophical concepts before understanding them, turns out most game devs are incels who have no clue about the actual world they live in and see it through the spectrum of their computer just like you user.

Adachi has Dojima though

>Hard work doesn't accomplish anything
>The world's about being born talented and knowing the right people

Keep telling yourself that, maybe you truly deserve to live a shitty life of self-pity

He's the one overreacting the most unreasonably to his minor problems you dumb weeb.

Taoism isn't japanese...

>The world's about being born talented and knowing the right people
Sounds like somebody didn't work hard enough, failed then shifts blame.

Fucking loser.

How so?

Bullshit. Having friends can really pull you through dark times (emotional, finantial, etc). Adachi HAD the police guy as a friend if he wanted but decided to go “woe is me” instead

>one screenshot represents the entire game
I know it's Yea Forums but I'm not surprised anymore.

Shut up and post best girls

Dojima

Have sex incel

>Imagine working your ass off only realizing in the corporate world it's only those people who act fake and brown nose who get ahead.
Why imagine that when I've literally lived it? Doesn't mean I go out and murder people out of boredom as a result.

Adachi is a manbaby, if you agree with his actions based entirely on his tepid conclusion that life sucks so much that nothing matters then you're also a manbaby.

Damn how shes binding those big boobs ?

Just because Adachi is right about them being inexperienced/young does not mean everything else he says is true or justify his actions

What's the best way to beat Margaret?

maybe when you're out of college you'll see how useless your education is and all that matter is that you happened to get lucky enough to meet and be friend with a relative of a successful person in a higher position that can give you jobs just because they like you.

You dont.
Just skip it

the SOS mechanic was stupid

This. Thank you, user.

It's from some little mermaid comic, the prince says Ariel has 3 legs, and the old guy says imagine, 2 vaginas

it was also optional!

>Not Neutralized.

All JRPGs have this shit. especially with silent protagonists that can only communicate with textboxes. And since the designer is retarded he still feels the need to offer multiple choices. So you get this beauty.

>play golden
>decide to beat margaret since I got close beating her in vP4 but dropped it
>gave her double turns in golden
aaahhhh.

SHitsona has always been a terrible series only wifufags and people to dumb for SMT like it

yes but the design was stupid. You would use it, thne wait for others to charge it up. But if you cleared a floor you only got 1 or 2 cheers per round. And every time you had to reactivate it. Getting 1 SP every fight isnt worth the stupid visual adn pressing a button.

Yu spends most of his time in school and has access to many things to do (like clubs), plus he has more free time. Adachi is a cop who's married to his job.

>True Demon for Nocturne
>"haha I killed all life in the universe now what"

Yumi.

Yoshitsune with Debilitate

I love her voice too, but come on man.

I just really like her. I can't help it.
I like her casual outfit: white turtleneck, necklace and blue skirt. And I like her serious, but sometimes teasing personality too. Would date, probably marry.

I only fought her in Golden, but I used Yoshitsune with Naoto, Yukiko, and Yosuke as my party since at the very least they're all immune to fire if you have their third personas

I FUCKING LOVE PERSONA THREADS

So is it a choice in the game to convince Naoto she's a lesbian

I turned her down when she confessed.

Only for FeMC

The only one that's a real problem is "girl won't get respect in her field for being a girl". The rest are either easily fixable or not even an actual problem to anyone who isn't a child.

I don't. You can't talk about persona 5 without it being one sentence nonsense rebuttals. You can't talk about persona 4 without being shit on and you can't talk about Persona 3 without the fucking waifu faggotry.

Fuck Yea Forums.

It's not a problem because the reason they don't respect her is not related to her gender in the first place.

what is the point of the text at the bottom

I love you user. Not as much as persona but I hope your day goes well. Cheer up lad
I only came here because somebody posted it somewhere else. I do love persona threads sometimes though. Mainly for some good posts but mostly to increase my persona folder

Yes sir. Have a good day

daily reminder that this was adachi's mindset before he even knew anything about having powers
>I'm going to proposition this woman I'm assigned to protect while on the clock
>if she turns me down I'm going to bash her head into a television

not him but adachi was unironically influenced by izanami, that's why he changes personality after he's caught.
