yeah they were wacky and goofy back then but it hits different when they kill tens of thousands of people in a much more graphically vivid way than the popeye arms original version. you can tell the writers want to have their cake and eat it too with the whole "someone's gonna have to pull that trigger" thing they added in to justify their horrific actions. it hits way different now that everything is so much more detailed.

the scene that's tsung just tossing out rationalizations he obviously doesn't actually believe and reno blows off?

Sorry about your lack of theater of the mind, but in both it's depicted as exactly the same and treated the same.

You're being silly, but not the fun kind.

A Sign of Affection is very good, really like the male lead in it especially. Very physically affectionate and that's something I like to see in a romance show.

Reminds me a bit of Yamada from Love with Yamada at lv 999, or at least once they start dating. Boy knows what he wants and isn't afraid to show it.

Yuki also rules, girl's bravely stepping out into the world. She's great.

childhood friend guy sucks rear end though. bad vibes.

He's such a well-made piece of poo poo though, I really like all the hot mess characters in that show about as much as Yuki and Itsumi lol.

maybe if they expand the childhood friend circle a bit, but yea he needs to be fleshed out more.

i thought the clingy girl that was with the male lead was gonna be annoying, but the flashback with her and the stylist was really good, and i really like them now.

Oh yeah he's well written and the author nailed "GUy who clearly cares but is treating her as something that's going to break if he doesn't keep an eye on her" instead of just a person. It's just, it's so well written it's hard to watch and the scene where Itsumi blocks her view to have a private talk had me cheering for him going for the killing blow immediately .

Excited to see more of Itsumi's friends they seem like they're gonna be a beautiful mess

Unironically I'm most hyped for the Junon escape sequence in part 3. QWOP prototype minigame to unlock yourself from the execution chair was so cool in the original.

You can't cancel truth so I can safely say the hottest thing in ff7r was Rufus's coin toss and reverse stinger technique and for that I say we let him drop another plate. Sector 2s had it too good for too long.

What I'm getting at is...
Do you feel the same way?
Finished Persona Trinity Soul. I warmed up to it towards the end. Very middle of the road overall (and quite a few weaker episodes), but it’s another show that’s elevated by effectively maintaining a mood (chronically foreboding). That was what connected it to Persona 3 the strongest in my mind (also the coastal city was kinda similar, which ties into making the sea of souls a literal metaphor). Akihiko doesn’t talk about his past, and could be replaced by anyone.

I didn’t catch many overt references to the games, outside remixes used as diegetic background music. Not sure how involved Altus was besides the Soejima characters.

Also I liked that it featured a Persona protagonist that’s still popular but kinda dorky and uncertain of himself.
