It's a shame the Awakening video doesn't have this line in it, because Mittleman does a fantastic job of selling Ryuji's anger and frustration at his situation finally boiling over. And yeah, Ryuji's a pretty great character. There were times I got annoyed at some of the stuff he does, but his heart is in the right place.

This whole opening build up just made me so mad. I never had to deal with an abusive teacher, but I was constantly bullied from kindergarten through high school, and pretty much always ended up being the one who got in trouble for trying to protect myself while the people who were bullying me were never punished for a variety of bullshit reasons. So I keenly empathize with a bunch of students who are suffering abuse and nobody does anything about it because the system that's supposed to protect them from poo poo like this has loving failed.

First time through the game, I picked, "We'll have to risk it," because I really couldn't see any other options and I figured there's gotta be SOME way to pull it off and make sure he doesn't die from it... but Ryuji still had cold feet, so we sat on it for a day. And then the next day rolls around and I hear the words, "She's gonna jump!" and at that point my mind goes into a loop of, "Oh Jesus gently caress no no no no don't do this no no no-" That's the point where I went from being mad about how hosed up things in this school are to absolutely livid. The game does an absolutely fantastic job of making you want to put an end to Kamoshida and his reign of tyranny, no matter what the cost. I think the only time I've seen a Persona game get darker faster than this was the opening of P4: Dancing All Night, which opened with an animated cutscene of a little girl trying to track down her favorite idol after a concert to get an autograph and walking in on her mere seconds after she'd hung herself.

Morgana's crush on Ann never bothered me since Ann herself has basically just been ignoring it entirely up to now. If she was even half as bothered by it as the people complaining about it seem to be, she probably would have made it a point to shut him down by now. And given that his whole gimmick is that he's a gentleman thief, I'm pretty sure if she just directly told him to back off, his feelings would be hurt but he'd apologize for making her uncomfortable and drop it. But as it stands, if she's not visibly bothered by it, I see no reason to get bent out of shape over it.

Snorb posted:So at what point can we just say "You know what, Yusuke? You're a big boy. You can handle your own problems. We'll forget all about that conversation the other day. Bother Ann again, and Madarame's gonna have fun figuring out what to do with a pupil with two loving broken hands?" Never, because we're cunning and mysterious Phantom Thieves who outwit our opponents, not vulgar and unimaginative thugs who threaten them with crude physical violence. Also, we're kinda still under probation, and even with Ann and Ryuji vouching for us, I somehow doubt the police are going to take the word of a kid who's already been arrested for assault before over the word of a world famous artist with tons of connections and his student with two broken hands.

ApplesandOranges posted:I always saw it as less of a 'totally perving on Ann' and more of a 'feelings on Ann aside, the only objective way to do this is for Ann to accept Yusuke's request'. Another factor to consider is that he's not even going to be in the same room with Ann and Yusuke to see anything, because he's going to be trying to open the lock on that door. So I'm really not understanding how that line could be interpreted as him suddenly being on board with the plan because it means he might get to see his crush get naked.

The main thing holding Yusuke back is one of his gimmicks relies on a mechanic that's not usable during boss battles. And the other stuff you'd want to bring him for, as always, Joker can do just as well, if not better. That said, I still took him with me for a good chunk of the game, and even brought him along for the final boss in spite of his limitations, and he did just fine.

I dunno, Death Note wasn't so much a slippery slope as it was a sheer drop-off that Light gleefully dove into head first. Seriously, he went from, "Might as well test this on someone nobody will care about, on the off chance it's legit," to "Holy poo poo, did that actually work? Better test it again to be sure," to "I AM NOW THE GOD OF THIS WORLD AND ALL WHO OPPOSE ME WILL DIE".

resurgam40 posted:So anyone who was wondering how long such a prominent and public hiding spot would last... well there you go: just about one boss, just like the last one. And while yes, it is Ryuji's fault for giving the game up (which I think we all knew would happen as well, I think), I'm with Arist in saying that Yusuke should not be pointing fingers at this juncture. I mean, we all had a good month or so to point out to each other that hey, maybe our meeting place is a little too flagrantly public to discuss "certain things", especially given them being accosted by the cops, and Maaku himself knowing about at least one person obviously following them. And given that Morgana approved the hideout in the first place for whatever reason and said bupkiss before today, I don't imagine anyone in our group has the ground to come the I-told-you-so routine. Criminal masterminds, we are not. Except the place Makoto caught a recording of Ryuji bellowing about being the Phantom Thieves was the quad at school, not our current "hideout" on the walkway in Shibuya.
