I think the ending of the anime really elevates the ending of Persona 4. Yu finally has to face his own Shadow, and his shadow is just scared of leaving Inaba. He doesnt want to leave his friends behind and all the memories they have together. Just as we as the players get filled woth a deep melancholic feeling as the gang runs to catch up with us on the train, so does Yu the character struggle to carry on with his life wherever it may take him. The story in Inaba is over, and its time to start a new story. I did NOT want to leave this game when it was over. Im literally crying right now just thinking about it. I love this game and cherish what it taught me in such a short amount of time. Im 28 now and ive had to make my own story in life, and i have alot of regrets, but Persona 4 and the memories i have give me a place to relax and reflect on what ive learned so far, and it gives me courage through the tears to keep on going and i love it for that, and so much more.

I find Shu's Social Link to be very interesting because his situation is very similar to Adachi's childhood (or at least what we hear about it from him). Seemingly uncaring parents that only want him to be good at school. Only thing is that Narukami pivoted Shu off that path by showing him companionship. Sure I doubt he would have become as messed up as Adachi but his life probably would have been pretty miserable without that positive influence.

While Teddie’s human form isn’t explicitly explained, I assume he developed the form similarly to how he took on his bear form to be better liked by humans. I think he grew a human body (which note, is still hollow like his bear form) because he wants to be better liked by his friends. And now that he’s actually SEEN humans, he is able to make his form look like a human’s. I think the fact that his form is incredibly charming to those he speaks to is actually strong evidence for this theory. This human form fulfills Teddie’s main goal perfectly: to be well liked.

Two years late, but, finally got around to watching this one. Honestly, the ending got me to tear up a little. The way Nam feels about Persona 4 is exactly how I feel with Persona 5. I played P5 when I was 14. I had just started high school, I was a loser. No friends, I was tanking every single class, and was mad insecure and depressed. I picked up the game thinking it would be about superheroes in some magical world, but then, it introduced those life-sim elements. It gave me the highschool experience that I actually wanted. I very quickly got attached to the cast and watched them work through their insecurities and trauma. Watching them overcome their struggles made me realize I could do the same, it made me feel like I wasn’t alone. After finishing the game at the end of my freshman year, I immediately started getting more confident. I found my current friend group, I love them like they’re my brothers and we still play games together to this day. I started taking more chances. I became an important member of my school’s choir. I asked out my crush (still happily together). And even got the lead in the school play. Throughout high school, I played P3FES and P4. Both also helped reinforce this newfound confidence. And even though I know Persona 5 has its fair share of flaws (and I think these days I like Persona 4 a LITTLE BIT more.), that game will always have a special place in my heart. It quite literally changed my life. And it’s a game that I probably won’t replay any time soon, but it’s also a game that won’t ever leave my collection.

I just want to say to for those of you who thinks Adachi’s motive of becoming killer is unrealistic, that’s because you have nerve grew up in Japanese society. As a individual who grew up there, i can say this 100% , it’s very realistic. Our society is best to be called prison or robot factory. Only things we are allowed to do from very young age is one thing. Study, get good grade , go to good high school, good university and get a good job. That’s it. Nothing else. There is nothing fun about being alive. That’s why we have one of the highest suicidal rate amongst young and adults people. Do you know that even kindergarten students commit suicide because of our broken system ?? Yeah it’s messed up. If i didn’t have good people around me in that environment, I could have been like Adachi like very easily.

You didn't work hard enough. It's your fault, not the society. Why does the society have to care about you? Oh, you studied sooo hard? Well, too fucking bad because the college will leave you forever in debt. If not college, then the rest of the consumist society. Adachi is a very realistic character, one that would definitely exist if someone had the power to mess with the TVs. Also, the way he talks about women was ahead of its time, because that's exactly how a lot of entitled adults that lurk around 4chan treat women nowadays. His character is super believable today.

@@joaoassumpcao3347 The major difference though is cultural values. In the West you're somewhat encouraged to 'find your own path' and 'be yourself', even if that eventually leads to falling in line with the rest. You're encouraged to go to school and get a good education, but it's not a damn all. If you screwed up, or weren't very good in school, there's still a path, even if it isn't the preferred one. In Asian society (most prominently in Korea/China/Japan), it's all or nothing. Your actions and your schooling determine your life, and your status in life rides on that. If you can't get into a good college or get the highest marks, it's over. There's no coming back from that. If you miss your chances during internships and job fairs and interviews, there's nothing for you. People don't get fired often, and positions don't just open and close to where you can just keep firing and hit something. There's nothing. And their society perpetuates this. Individuality and personality aren't encouraged like it would be in the West, because that's not a sure way to success. Better to stick to the tried and true, and go the path that works, than try to fix what's not broken. It's a different world, and often one Westerners won't understand, as much as they might try.

This game made me very happy and depressed at the same time. I've had a very shitty life and terrible experiences with people. As a result I've withdrawn into a shell and became a loner. I'm not unhappy anymore but I'm not happy either. The main characters of this game were so relatable for me. A bunch of misfits that came together and saw everyone's worst aspects and yet still loved them no matter what. All of them were broken in some way but their friendship healed them and made them better persons. They love and would do everything for each other. I wish I could have met people like that in my real life. This is why I also related so much to Adachi. He became what he became because he didn't have people like that around him. I've had bitter thoughts similar to Adachi's when I was younger and I still have from time to time. I understand him. He and I would have been such different human beings if we just had a slightly different life. Still, this game gave me a taste of what real friendship could be. It allowed me to escape for a precious little moment. Yu's friends would never betray or hurt him. This feels so different than what my life has been. It's fiction, none of these characters are real, obviously I know it; but fiction or not it allowed me to cope and feel better for a little while. I feel like the memories the characters have had have also become mine. My only memories were sadness and loneliness, now I have some memories of friendship and love. This may be fiction, but it still did more for me than what real life ever did. The ending made me sad. After all, everything is over and slowly but surely everyone will drift away from each other. But that's how life is. Nothing you get attached to lasts forever. Everything will die eventually, be it people or relationships or anything, really. This is something I still have issues accepting.

Everyone is like Adachi deep down, which is why everyone struggles with loneliness. Some people just aren't aware of themselves and most people are not honest with themselves to admit this, and even more are afraid of their safety threatened so they'd never admit their inner Adachi exists. Adachi is the story of identification with the ego, the person. It is the story of victimhood, which is the role of the self. Ultimately, Adachi is a false story, a lie. What he believes is not the truth. What he tells himself about the world is not the truth, and man perishes for lack of truth. In the story of victimhood, we are powerless victims in a life we can't control and anything we do wrong is really society's or god's fault. In this false story we're like a hero that has been unjustly wounded. But it's just a story. Adachi just couldn't see the truth yet, the truth being that the world is good and that bonds matter. When he was finally exposed to the truth , he found redemption. He didn't find redemption in paying and atoning for his sins, he found redemption in finding out that there was a better way than he was living, and a better perspective that he was seeing, a hope instead of a despair, purpose instead of nothingness. This was the gift that Yu gives him by taking him down. In contrast, if you side with Adachi, he laughs in madness and despair, and players think this is because he sees what a complete fool Yu is. That isn't it. He's laughing tragically because you are confirming for him the divine comedy, you are proving to him his limited conclusions about truth and confirming for him that there is no hope. In this ark he says, "I see, so that's your truth, huh.", and confirm his inaccurate conclusion that truth is subjective to what one decides is true [and this conclusion is what allows false truth and people to live in the fog of their own bullshit]

One thing I really like from the anime adaptation of Persona 4 is how, after Narukami is dragged down by humanity's desires, he creates his own palace of sorts where it's nothing but his life in Inaba continuing on loop without his departure ever arriving. It shows that while he may have gotten his persona without facing his own shadow, the anxieties that shadows are born from still built inside of him. Acknowledging the side of him that fears losing his friends by leaving ends up being the key to him accepting their strength and finishing the battle, rather than using them as a shield against the reality that things have to end. It shows Izanami's cunning in trying to use your own social links against you as well as emphasizing the process the others went through to get there with Narukami

After playing P4, not only did I become a bit more tolerant of them, but Persona 4 became my 2nd most favorite JRPG of all time (the original Xenoblade Chronicles being 1st). I feel like this game made me a better person after playing it. Since beating P4, I've gone through P3 and P5 multiple times, with plans to tackle Persona 2 next. It's not the best game ever made, but I can't think of many video games that genuinely made me felt like I became a better person after playing it. This game is 20 bucks on Steam. Go fucking play it.

Finally someone else that appreciates Yosuke it seems like everyone I've seen talk about him either wants to bang him or just hates the guy meanwhile I feel like he's the greatest friend I could wish for even if it's just in a digital setting and thou I love Persona 3 and 5 the main group doesn't feel as close as the P4 cast do And finally someone that doesn't get caught up on Kanji's sexuality I've made this argument before we're people are just making jokes about Kanji's supposed homosexuality and how Atlus won't let them bend him over it's not that Kanji is gay nor does it matter Kanji's preference for male company over female comes from how guys are just generally more accepting towards him then girls Also loved the video

@@horizontalnoodlelmao4286 Yeah he might be like that but even then he says that he just didn't trust him because he was kinda alien to him for actually liking it in inaba and much like Ryuji he respects Yu because he self aware enough to know that he doesn't have the right head for combat strategy and one mess up could lead to death so in that sense I can't really call it leaching off him also he thoroughly respects your opinion as the leader because of this also keep in mind you can talk him out of commiting murder Even though I did it the first time around out of pure emotion as a matter of fact I knew Namatame wasn't the culprit because his journal was just to weird for someone who sent me a death threat and was actively supposedly committing murder but he was still responsable for the lost of Nanako who had nothing wrong and he was still going to walk free and that really pissed me off and also I was really sad and the shadow still taunted me pushing me even further also during this scene the investigation team was kind of scary there was no one screaming everyone was calmly suggesting we take a life even Naoto who always seems to keep her emotions in check though I was no better because I also wanted him dead I had to skip all the dialog to make the right choice (and I know murder isn't anything special in videogames but I usually change my mind set depending on the videogame GTA no problem even if you try to be peaceful you at some point will accidentally kill people with your car on the way home but in Persona 4 I was on the mind set that I'm just a high school student that wants to prevent further death and do what's right) Back to Yosuke all he really wants is your respect and to be seen as your equal though I already respect him a lot and he's the character I feel the closest to in the game Anyway...

Glad to know this game saved another zoomer's life. It did for me a little later in life at around 2013 when I was 18, dreading for what will happen to my life in the future. Things we're not taught or prepared for in school were taught to me by P3 and P4, even made me interested in Jungian philosophy. As a P4 fan, I'd suggest listening to "Welcome to Forever" by Logic. I think your soul needs to be repaired in these times.

I feel like Marie would have worked better as a playable character, or, at the very least, had more of a primary role in the main story outside of her social link. I tend to overlook it, since I love everything else about the game, but her inclusion is definitely jarring. Hell, give her a Persona, make her a party member. After ther battle with Ameno-Sagiri, if you maxed he S-Link prior, all of her memories flood back, and THEN the extra content is unlocked. Then, after you save her, her Persona becomes Kaguya. There. I fixed her plot line.

In the scene where Yu using the ultimate form of Izanagi to defeat Izanami, chills were literally sent up my spine and I stood up out of joy. A game has never hit me this hard and I am so glad that I was able to experience this for the first time ever from a video game. Even persona 3 wasnt able to do that with the nyx fight. Persona really does hit hard, even for me who has barely played rpg games in general. Besides that, your video was excellent and I’m very glad I was able to find someone else who also has the same arguments for characters arcs I really appriciate. 10/10 game and video :)

Only ones that served no story purpose or were filler.

I think it’s funny that everyone thinks Persona 4 is just a lighter hearted game the Persona 3. The reason that is the it follows Carl Jung’s Id, ego and super-ego concepts. The ego is the characters everyday selves. The superego is what is shown on tv (Yukiko being the perfect matron of her family’s inn, Kanji’s bad boy-tough guy image, and Rise’s idol persona are good examples). The Id is what deep down the part of you that is hidden from the world. This makes sense in Inaba because the town is see as happy to lucky, but in the tv world, it has a dark side and later in the game (spoilers) both sides are merging as one. So it makes sense that in theory it isn’t as dark, but it is, but only in a different way.

I totally understand how Persona 4 affected your life. I picked up the Steam port of Golden the day before I went back home for college this year, and I really wasn't looking forward to going back home. College was such a life changing experience for me in such a good way because I was away from home and could socialize and be on my own. Home became a trap for me this year, when I couldn't go out and see friends thanks to COVID. I had hit the lowest point in my life mentally this May, where I genuinely couldn't do anything because I was so depressed and felt so lonely (I'm a social butterfly). So when I came home for winter break this year, I decided to start Persona 4 Golden to give me something to pass the time. And what happened to you happened to me: I fell completely in love for this game's story of learning to live/deal with your insecurities and leaning that I had a place where everyone loved me for who I was. This game came at the right time for it to change my feelings completely. Sure, there's a lot of flaws (c'mon, how do kids learn instruments that quickly?), but I'm able to overlook those flaws to see how much this game meant to me. As much as I hate to say it, I was introduced to Persona through Joker's inclusion in Smash Brothers, and I had asked a few friends in my college's gaming guild if I should play Persona. All of them gave me a resounding yes, and so I went into Persona 4. I'm now on a mini quest to finish at least the neo-Persona trilogy (P3, P4, and P5). I borrowed my friend's PS4 to play Persona 5, and really enjoyed it, too. Literally today, I'm borrowing his PS2 so I can begin to play both Persona 3 and SMT: Nocturne. I don't think any Persona or SMT game will mean as much to me as P4G did, but I'm glad to call myself a fledgling fan to the series. I'm basically a Persona fan at this point, but not necessarily for SMT as a whole. As such, I started watching Persona content on KZitem and came across your series of all the Persona games. I'm glad I could finally finish this video. Excellent video for such an excellent game. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who had their life changed because of this game's message. You've gained a new sub today.

I love your video and your restropective about persona 4 in this video.. Persona 4 the golden is one of my favorite video games of all time, not just because of gameplay but also the story and characters. I can really relate to most of them. There are things that i dont really agree with you, the first one is the fox social link. Now, i know fox social link isnt that intresting, is just a bunch of side quest. But the point of the fox quest is not about the side quest, is about the fox. It is stated that not many people in Inaba still pray and give offering to the fox. Considering that is based of Japan, where there are still shrines everywhere, it makes the fox lonely and sad. Its kinda a feeling when you're a God, but the people doesnt need you anymore. Helping the Fox, makes people from Inaba realize that the fox is still there to grant their wish and making them give offering to the fox. The 2nd one is about Izanagi and Izanami that you didnt tell in the video. Izanami and Izanagi are famous characters in Japanese mythology. The lore said that Izanami and Izanagi created Japan, and Izanami gave birth to a lot of God. But she died when she gave birth to Kagutsuchi (god of fire). Izanagi miss his wife, so he travel to Yomi no Kuni ( The realm of dead ), to find his wife and bring her back. Once he found Izanami, Izanami said that she will go back, if Izanagi wait, and didnt turn back to see her. Izanagi, cannot do that, and decided to look back to Izanami, and saw that Izanami turn into a really ugly, creepy thing (?). Izanagi that terrifed about this, run away. Because of this Izanami become angry to Izanagi, and promise that she will kill 1000 people every day. While Izanagi counter this by giving birth to 1500 more every day. Why i told you this? Because the last move that Yu used using Izanagi no okami persona is the power of 1500 people that he promise to gave birth to counter the Izanami. Izanagi and Izanami lore is really connected to persona 4, considering Yu's persona is Izanagi himself, but i kinda didnt like it when you didn't even mention it. Anyway nice vids man

I too played P4 during a rough patch in my life, when I was struggling through grad school and was away from everyone I cared about. The bonds I formed with the characters ended up being extremely meaningful to me because of that. So when I saw this come up in my recommended videos and saw the title, I knew I had to give it a watch to hear the perspective of someone who was similarly impacted by the game. For me personally, I do feel like too much time was spent summarizing the plot and the Social Links, so I ended up skimming through some of those parts. I could understand how those parts may be useful to someone who hadn't played the game in a long time, though. Regardless, it is always great to hear the thoughts of someone who loves a game as much as you do. I will probably end up checking out your Persona 3 video later.

How they dealt with Kanji was so good. Instead of going the lazy route of just making him a closet gay, they actually made him a more complex character and made him realize that he actually liked girls but just couldn’t handle their company. Think a lot of people go through that and instead of dealing with it becomes confused and think they must be gay. Oh and Yosuke is best bro, hands down.

Kanji and Yosuke are so well-written and Kanji's lesson of accepting the fact that even if you are into stuff that isn't stereotypical masculine/macho that doesn't make you any less of a man nonetheless a weirdo and using that to positively connect with people. I've taken this lesson to heart and is genuinely something I wished I had heard earlier in my life. Meanwhile with Yosuke the reason he's my favorite P4 character and why I like him the most is he feels the closest to an actual friend from the way he behaves, banters, etc. Also that fight scene in his social link reminds me of one from Clannad: After Story and the friendship in that one is even very similar and for both they're some of my favorite scenes. Yosuke I'd argue is the most likeable Persona 4 character and an absolute homie and I've never seen another character like him in any other medium making him truly special.

The most important part of Kanji's arc is that he is not gay. According to another comment just above the one you responded to, Kanji does have some dialogue which implies attraction to either gender. It's not impossible that while the main message is you're not gay just because you're flamboyant, Kanji is still supposed to resonate with some lgbt people. There's nothing wrong with that, and the person you responded to made it pretty clear it's THEIR opinion. These are characters telling stories and sending messages first, not really people. Interpretation is the name of the game, and I've described how varying sexualities have existed for a good while in the smt and persona games

It’s funny, I only just finished playing through persona 4 Golden on steam a few days ago, after finding it available there in early November. (I had been a fan of the persona series since P5 released but don’t own a ps4 and so couldn’t play it). At the end you brought how the time in your life when you played this game was really important, and that it helped with the current situation you were in. In mid December of 2020, I was about 2/3 of the way through the game, when suddenly my grandfather passed away. This was also during finals week of my first semester of college, and it had been quite the journey to get there. My grandpa was my favorite person, and it was so sudden. It hit me really hard. A day after the funeral my dog died. And the day after that my entire family tested positive for Covid, which, despite our best efforts, we were exposed to at my grandpa’s wake (or when we visited him at the hospital). So now my entire family, including my grandmother, has Covid. During all of this I had Persona 4 as my “escape.” I put escape in quotes because, while it is an escape, it is an escape that constantly reminds you not to escape. To not run away. To not neglect your feelings, or run away from your current hardship. And for that I am grateful. It’s interesting the timing at which I found the game, decided to buy it, and play it despite being in the middle of a college semester with finals in a few weeks. And the fact that the whole thing that happened to Nanako happened just days before or after my grandfather passed away (it’s a bit of a blur so I can’t remember if I played that part right before or right after). It was also interesting that for the whole year I had watched Unus Annus. Which was all about “death” and more so about moving on from it. Which also has helped. And that I also stumbled across that during the summer, months after it had been going, and just happened to click on a video and get hooked.

Personally I think you did an excellent job analyzing my favorite game of all time. To think I almost didn’t buy this game when my dad saw me watching a playthrough he said “why are you watching someone else play a game you could be playing” so I bought it even though I new the events up to The fifth dungeon. I had a blast I remember my first playthrough being really challenging it did break my habit of not using MP in other games though and effective resource management. It also emphasized using buffs and debuffs which most games I played at the time didn’t put a lot of emphasis on This was also the first game that made me stay up all night one time. Ironically it was a fresh hard playthrough (for those unaware vanilla P4 had only normal and hard difficulties). It’s also responsible for getting me into the rest of ATLUS’s catalog Devil Survivor, Catherine, Strange Journey, and the entire SMT franchise I owe it all to Persona 4. I also believe the message of Persona 4 is so important especially today. We have to actively seek the truth and be true to who we are along the way. Again thank you so much for the amazing video.

Namatame believed that what he was doing was righteous and by serving injustice to someone innocent of a bigger crime, Nanako succumbs. Nanako also stays alive even if you don't figure out who the real culprit is albeit in a poor condition and is unable to leave the hospital even upon Yu's departure.

P4G was a great game: probably my favorite because with P3, I hated Tartarus but loved the characters, and with P5, I loved the dungeons but hated the characters, but in P4 the dungeons were okay, the plot was good, and the characters were also mostly very good. That being said, I'm not quite sure how it could be viewed as life changing, I guess. OMORI was life changing. The Zero Escape trilogy (especially the second game) was life changing. Steins;Gate Elite was life changing.

Persona 4 means everything to me, over persona 5 and more for a personal matter, I know that people wont care nor will anyone read this but my ex with persona 4 is one of sadness and happiness Back around 7 years ago, I was about the graduate from high school when my grandmother passed away, she was truly my real mother in my life, while my mom was there she was always hanging with less savory people, I then graduated and basically lost contact with most of my friends, some moved or just went completely cut off from my life, and unfortunately my grandfather was weakening with age and broken heart with the loss of his wife, meaning we all had to take care of a man who was slowly fading away and we all knew it, he would pass later that year.. Before all this all happened one of my friends recommended me to play this game, and I wasnt truly listening to him and said sure in a "maybe I may but mostly not" type of way, but once I caught the music of the game by accident over youtube I fell in love and decide to purchase a pstv and a copy.. So during the worst year of my life, I had persona 4, and I have to say it helped me through the depression, I made friends even if they were virtual, I was cheered up by listening to the music 24/7 and started to become better, while I wasnt 100 at the end, it definitely kept a shoulder out for me and I appreciate the time I had with it, i thank persona 4 for everything

I don't understand why some say that the game is "too happy". Don't get me wrong, there are significantly more cheerful moments scattered throughout the story compared to its predecessor, but persona 4 also has its fair share of disturbing/creepy moments. Let's take a look at the ENTIRE month of december for example: the town is engulfed in poisonous fog, some people go crazy and start to believe that the end of the world is approaching and the culprit is still free. In my opinion persona 4 has as much unsettling stuff as all the other persona games

I couldn't help but imagine Izanagi-no-Okami was talking hella shit to Izanami when Myriad Truths was activated, primarily because of their legend you learn in school.

So as someone who was lucky and got to play the game blind back when it was Vita-exclusive: (Spoilers about the ending/culprit/etc.) I loved the way the December section goes. Especially the scramble to finally put together an answer to who the culprit truly is, and all the bad endings that you can wind up with. I was lucky, and managed to not hit the first bad ending, and then I got hit with the thing that made this game get stuck in my head for the longest time: When they give you a moment to say "The culprit is..." and then give you a list of every named character in the game, including your party members, the dead victims. When I saw that and pulled out a pen and paper to write them out and work through what I knew about EACH and EVERY character, and why I do/don't suspect them... It was a moment I've never experienced since. There was a part of me that, when I was going through several characters, and finally piecing together the puzzle that the game had built up to, began to second-guess a great number of characters. For context, I hadn't finished a lot of social links on that first run, but I did manage to get a few levels at least in every single one, and because of that, I got pretty thrown off of the killer's trail by initially dismissing everyone I had a social link with, only to come back to that list. It kinda hurt to go through the list of social links and wonder which one had been all lies. As it progressed though, I took that list and wrote down each Arcana number next to their names. And suddenly it was clear. #0, the Jester. Tooru Adachi. Did you know that, historically, Jesters were often assassins and spies for their kings? Kings that were rulers because of a so-called "divine right to rule" given to their bloodline supposedly by the gods themselves? I did and knowing that little, insignificant fact about medieval Europe managed to make everything clear to me, and made me see the truth.

As someone who can’t take a lot of heavy, dark material for a long term, I appreciated the increased levity moments in P4G, even though it’s the first Persona game I ever played. And I don’t think the trips to the beach or the ski resort dampens Inaba being a small town with nothing to do. I lived in a small town with nothing to do when I was in high school and we had to leave to go the city or go on trips if we wanted to do something. They are leaving Inaba and going somewhere else to do something.

I find it funny how (spoiler for p4 animation) In the animation tower, death, hermit, devil and temperance are all connected to each other and happen differently.

Good video man. A couple of minor mistakes, but nothing crazy. I noticed you skipped over the whole Mitsuo Kubo arc. Just wondering if you couldn't fit it in or if it felt like an anime filler fakeout arc for you as well?

The video was long enough as it was so I decided to cut it out for the sake of getting to the more important stuff in my eyes. I like the Kubo stuff even though it's a very obvious fake out. At the very least it isn't a waste of time because you do incarcerate the person responsible for Morooka's death and I like that Mitsuo was so desperate to be acknowledged by people that he tried to take the blame for the true culprit.

@@NamsCompendium Fair point. I guess the way I thought about it the first time I played was that "This is way too early in the game for this guy to be the real killer." Kinda makes it obvious in a way.

I finished P4G today and just feel so empty without my friends from Inaba. Pretty sure I played this game at exactly the right moment too, as I'm also a high schooler finding out who I really am and who my true bonds are. Even though I'm a very socially anxious person, this game makes me wanna get closer with my friends and make new ones. Thank you, Atlus, for letting an anxious guy like myself feel at ease, even if only for a couple of hours. There's no doubt in my mind that I will one day return to Inaba and get my heart broken all over again. Dog bless P.S. Chie best girl, fite me pussies
