Looking into it a bit, she's quarter-American so one of her grandparents(?) is American and she does confirm at one point that she used to live in Finland. That's interesting.

I haven’t gotten to that point in P4G yet, but in #FE they would randomly trigger during attacks. Like a super crit, functionally.

In P4G it happens after an all-out attack that doesn't kill everything. Somehow I always forget it's a thing, so it's really nice when it happens.

Ann added nothing practical to that attack, but the aesthetic value was worth it to Yusuke.

I would be surprised if Joker doesn't get a bunch. In fact he's kind of the only one who makes sense to get one with Akechi.

It's likely tied to confidant level.

Only if you can keep getting it for everyone, which is a tall order on any enemy tough enough to survive that many crits or weakness attacks given normal limitations.

Also, Ann does add practical value to her's and Yusuke's Showtime attack, which is more useful, but less funny.

The thing I'm intrigued about is that there will be different Persona attributes to choose from, apparently.

It's not that involved. Apparently, when you collect all those creepy skull potatoes from a Palace, they merge into an accessory that grants the holder an extra skill they'd normally not be able to use. We've seen Ann use ice, Morgana us nuclear, and Ryuji heal, so that's all I can come up with to explain it without completely breaking the game. It'll definitely help, but not be all that overpowered since its all still running off of the character's precious SP.

I'm talking about the thing it shows with one of Joker's Personas, Phoenix, at about a minute in.

e: it seems like you can pick which skill you want to get from a level up? Maybe?

Wait, are those redesigns of the normal ones or are those new level 3s? Cause holy poo poo both of those are INSANE upgrades if they are the first level Personas. Yusuke's especially. I always hate Yusuke's having the dumb cross eyes. And I like the more modern look they are going for with both

They’re the new level threes, in the same vein as Ryuji’s William.

That must be where the small but intense meme of Haru being secretly super ripped comes from.

Because Carmen wore a cat mask and the Third Level Personas are all just modernized, punched-up versions of the Initial Personas.

And they look loving stellar. These are wild crazy poo poo that feel way more natural than any of the 'Mythological Tricksters' ever did.

Edit: gently caress, the Third Persona are all Modern Street Fashion themed, and they're all going to use informal or personal names to represent like, friendship as a team and openness with each other and not just Joker.

Yeah. I love these new forms. It makes them feel so much more unique and fitting for North the characters and setting than the old fairly basic mythological figures.

I know it probably won’t happen, but I’d love to see Joker get one. It might just be a demonic Lupin III.

The localization has a lot of issues and I expect absolutely none of them to get fixed.

Then you get people complaining 'but she's saying onee-chan how dare you.'

Royal would be a fantastic time to geta single, good localization (you know, the one you like) group but I doubt they'd spend that money.
