Persona 4's anime adaptation came as a huge, but welcome surprise. Any fan of the highly-acclaimed video game would be curious as to how such an endeavor would turn out.
“There is no Persona 3 anime-kuma.” Right, and no Tsukihime one either. So let’s leave those BEARied and forgotten and go back to what I was talking about. The characters become easily likable and both visuals and soundtrack are extremely faithful to the original source.
Save games to your system with 64 GB of internal storage. Enjoy vivid colors and crisp contrast with a screen that makes colors pop. Besides going into TVs to stop a psychopathic killer, Persona 4 is about learning to accept yourself, both the good and bad.
Yes Teddie, I agree, BEAR with it. But guess what, so far Persona 4 appears to have broken the circle of bad karma and as an exception it looks GORGEOUS!
The dub had some pretty great moments. Anyways the anime was overall decent. So it's great to watch it whether you've played any Persona game or not. If you have played the game to completion, and if it is the Vita (Golden) version, then yes, you can watch both anime and get a quick review of the storyline.
1 Answer. Show activity on this post. You have to watch Persona 4 before watching Persona 4 the Golden, the reason is in P4G they skip most of the plot presented in the original series and pretty much only animate the parts with the new character, Mary.
But to answer your question, it does follow the same story in general.
overall, i'd recommend this anime, even if the reviews aren't the best, it's ... overall, the anime is pretty good, i played the game and enjoyed it alot, since i liked the game so much, i decided to watch the anime. the anime is for sure not as good as the game, but this is persona were talking about!
A second adaptation based on the game's PlayStation Vita port, titled Persona 4: The Golden Animation, aired in Japan between July and September 2014. Unlike the first series, this adaptation was produced by A-1 Pictures and is licensed in North America by Aniplex of America.
Differences. There are some differences between Persona 4 The Golden Animation and Persona 4 The Animation, including but not limited to: The main events are skipped completely, focusing solely on the Golden exclusive scenes, essentially making the show an add-on to the original anime.
Persona 5: The Animation has learned nothing from the success of its predecessor, turning Ren Amamiya into one of the most boring one-note characters in the entire series and falling far short of doing justice to the character's potential.
This game has been rated PEGI 16 for depictions of realistic looking violence towards human-like characters, use of sexual expletives, and encouragement/teaching of gambling. Not suitable for persons under 16 years of age.
The game has very little violence, and you don't kill people in the game. The only reason this game is rated M is because of two uses of the f word. The game uses a strategy system, where the player needs to think out there turns which acquires a lot of intelligence.
Besides going into TVs to stop a psychopathic killer, Persona 4 is about learning to accept yourself, both the good and bad. Inside the TV world, the characters are forced to confront the darker sides of themselves—the parts we all like to pretend don't exist. Whether a girl denying her very gender or a guy trying to deal with the fact that he likes "unmanly" things, Persona 4 deeply explores these emotional and personal truths that many people secretly struggle with. Watching this anime (or playing the game, I assume) might actually help people come to terms with some of the more "shameful" parts of themselves—and that is something commendable for any work of fiction.
Each time another crime occurs you feel the heroes are getting closer to the answer and the suspect list gets smaller and smaller. Yet, thanks to twists and turns in the story, putting the whole thing together is challenging enough that there's a good chance you won't be figuring it out before the characters do. In other words, it walks the fine line of a good detective story perfectly.
Persona 4, like Persona 3 before it, has a great soundtrack that somewhat defies classification (J-pop-techno-rap maybe?). Despite this, it fits the world perfectly and sets the tone for the series. Even though I had never heard the sound track before, the first few cords of the opening theme were enough for me to think, "Yep, this is a Persona soundtrack alright."
