The sound test has voice clips of the characters calling out their evolved Personas. It probably was just never completed. I'll bet they'll be in for the next version.

But Narukami has access to Izanagi-no-Okami, but only for his OHKO, so that makes it all the more confusing.

I'm just gonna chalk it up to fighting game logic and not overthink it.

He got that as part of the main story though.

Maybe persona evolutions is like that old anime thing of having a super ultimate form but only being able to use it certain times due to it being so powerful.

I just figured they wanted to market the game to as many people as possible, so they gave them the personas people were most likely to have seen.

They did it to show how the P3 characters are more mature than the P4 characters or something like that. Honestly it didn't bug me that much, I just chalked it up to ArcSys wanting another way to distinguish the P3 characters from the P4 ones.

Even so, it's kind of baffling why'd they'd choose to use the P4 characters' original personas, especially because the P3 characters have their evolved ones.

(And, you know, it DOES kind of create a big unexplained point of the plot.)


Edit: Did they throw the original personas in there for marketability reasons? Or to avoid P4 spoilers, since Golden was also out or coming out?

It's because the original personas are way more iconic and memorable looking, jeez! It's art direction, plain and simple. Take, say Chie, and her signature colors of green and yellow. They match up much better with Tomoe Gozen's primary yellow than Suzuka Gongen's black and grays. Plus the original personas have less fiddly and busy designs so that they read better in a fast paced action game.

Jin Yamanoi (Japanese voice of Philemon) is still alive. Just bring him back to bestow the power of persona and then have the velvet room be staffed by Elizabeth and Margaret. In theory they could just re use his voice clips forever. "Welcome to the Velvet Room" and "You have been a most marvelous guest" are pretty much the only sound files they need, seeing as they never fully voice the game anyways.

I miss Philemon. It's too bad IS/EP had to happen and he went WHOA gently caress THIS with regards to hanging out and meddling with humans. Maybe him and Nyarl can come back (legit this time) for P5.

I liked the secret fight with him.

You fight him, look at his level, and go "OH HELL HE'S LEVEL 100!"

Pity he sucks, but still, he had cool moves like Spectra Force and Eternal White.

Shadow Yu is giving me some serious Adachi vibes, and I don't think it's just because of Johnny Yong Bosch. (Do I need to tag for P4?)

Well, Adachi kind of was a Shadow Yuu of sorts thematically, wasn't he? Especially when you consider his Persona. Incidentally I hope Shadow Yuu also gets Magatsu Izanagi

Adachi's really nothing like Yu though? I mean his Persona is the same, but that was established to be because of an outside factor, not due to any real similarity. Then again, I guess the point of Adachi and the MC getting the Fool is that they are both effectively blank slates who have yet to evolve as people.

Adachi is essentially evil Yu; Golden stresses this by giving him The Jester, which is The Fool who refuses to take the journey and change.

Adachi himself stresses this point in a later point of Hunger, musing that maybe he could have turned out like Yu. I'm wondering if they'll take anything from the anime regarding Yu's Shadow, though.

This would be hilarious. Better if they had a bunch of really badly drawn (maybe with Crayon) Personas that are Teddie's attempt to make his own Arcana cards.
