Well, that was unexpected.

I guess this would be all-new material, then? Just the gang meeting up and...uh, what would they do? Is there a new threat? Is it just slice-of-life? Is it a tie-in to Persona 4 Arena?

......Is this the new Persona announcement? I feel kind of let down.

Yeah, and be glad you didn't sit through the whole stream for this surprise! Especially as a lot of it was really unfunny Japanese comedy. And by a lot of it I mean like all of it.

Oh come on. Seki getting undressed at every corner and sitting around in his boxers was PRETTY funny. Wink Shocking, but funny.

I haven't played the games before but I'll look forward to this for sure.

I was excited. Then I noticed that Seiji Kishi was the Chief Director again.

I can't really stand any of his works, unfortunately for me.

Wow. I was expecting something anti-climactic, and yet it was even more anti-climactic than I could have imagined.

Yeah, it was funny the first time! Then it got progressively less funny as it kept happening for the remaining forty minutes before and after this extremely disappointing announcement. By the end of it I was just going "oh my god shut upppp"

Hold it... what? You mean it's a sort of remake of the first anime, with an added character? The hell? I've never seen THAT done before.

And for good reason. It's crazy dumb.

I mean I get they want to animate the Marie stuff from P4G but there has got to be a better format for that than...this.

Would everyone preferred if they announced another concert tour? mobile game?, This was probably the only thing they could have announced anyway (P1 and P2 remakes would be extremely difficult considering they're in entire different engines to P3/4).

It's not like they're going to announce Persona 6 either, they're already working on P4U2, P4D, PQ and P5.

Didn't like the first P4 anime, it was decent in the first few episodes and just got so boring. I'll watch this but just because of my love for P4 (even though Atlus went Crapcom over this) and because I haven't play the Vita game yet. Just need to figure what kind of story Marie has.

Next year, make P4 arena anime Very Happy

Wow... I don't think it could have possibly been more disappointing. The only thing that could be most disappointing is... ... ...

nothing.

Maybe... P3 on Vita? It'd be about the same level of disappointment, I think.

I think I would have preferred literally anything else.

Shoji Meguro coming to my house and punching me directly in the junk would be better because at least that would be something and not nothing.
