It'll be the usual release hype schedule of character reveals.
You know, holding characters back so that all the people who actually care about your game and are going to buy it don't forget or something.

Junpei looks great!
I wonder if that also changes the amount of time it takes to recover your persona after it breaks.

I'm going to be upset if this isn't just DLC.

Dunno how many noticed, but Junpei has baseball meters. Strikes, balls, outs, everything :V

Nanjo has like a 75% chance of appearing, he makes the most sense from a story perspective.

Baseball themed fighter sounds really hype
Agh, I want footage soon. I wanna see what they did to the general mechanics and how they changed Mitsuru
Who IBs Cross Slash?

Can an Arksys employee accidentally upload all the new characters to their site so we don't have to wait.
Worked well for Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3!

Guessing Junpei will play like Hakumen. Slow, brutal swordplay.

Seems like a huge risk/reward to IB something that you already guessed was coming. Its like saying in order to punish SRK you have to parry/FA it. Yeah its doable but why? I already read that you were going to mash dp on wakeup, the reward is already high for you if you land it, so why do I have to go through a hurdle to punish your move.
Naoto is safe in the way that if you don't see them press a button you just keep walking. They can't do anything about it, but just respect the option. That was a long time ago though so people might of found ways around it by now. Its still stupid how the kick does like 3k damage or something absurd while being fully invul.
Cross Slash should be straight punishable. No wakeup super that does tons of damage should not be easily punished by every option. it should be straight up -5 or more.
Its just all about risk/reward ratios. The risk has to be as big as the reward in those cases. The fact that it isn't is stupid.
Wow, didn't notice that. Wonder what it indicates (perhaps the more "home runs" you get, the more powerful your moves are, and getting "outs" makes you weaker??). In any case, cool to see they're making Junpei really stand out.

Could be a risk/reward instant death mechanic? Three strikes and you are out, four balls and you are dead.

This is what I'm hoping. P4A needs the SFIV upgrade path.

Bought the retail version. Traded it for the digital version. Got pissed my save file didn't work. Raged and raged over this game like no other.
Will buy collector's edition day 1. Preorder that shit.

Is a surprise Loketest like this unheard of?
No. IBing Cross Slash is super easy, there's no risk or guessing. Super flash buffer makes it really really hard to screw up. When the screen pauses, then hold down back and you can punish him hard. Try testing it out. Frame disadvantage is actually pretty large for Cross Slash, but it's the "knockback" which makes it hard to punish. IB makes you slide not as far.
Naoto's reversal Awakening, you can roll through it if she's just walking at you.

even if its easy. It shouldn't be needed to punish a reversal super that does a grip of damage. I mean I would be ok with it being punishable by IB if it did less damage or if yu had less options. But the fact is that he has a grip of options + that. Its like why?
Also its not the fact that they have reversal supers. Those are fine. Its the fact that they do a stupid amounts of damage. If it did like 2k~. Fine. But they don't.

You have to either copy and paste or click enter in the url bar after it doesn't work the first time.
Famitsu does not allow direct linking. You must copy and past them.

hopefully thats not her only buff. If it is then she is still going to be mediocre at best.
You gotta click the link then when it doesn't work click go in your browser
Cross Slash is unblockable in the US.

Junpei is the one character I needed in this game.
I'll actually go pick this up once it hits a console.
Has there ever been a hint of a P4A PC release?
