Not surprising. I was on Gamestop the other day and saw the game for 360. My first though was "printing mistake".

I'm really excited about this. P4A is a ton of fun, and the story mode ended on some pretty big cliffhangers.

I just hope they keep that subtitle in the US (though I doubt they will).

Why is this a bad thing? P4A has a separate story mode (if you're interested in that), and with Ultimax at least seven months away, you have plenty of time to get in some P4A matches until then.

Why can't Rise be playable? :( I know her persona can't really fight (thats not really an excuse anymore since the new characters doesn't seem to use one), but I can totally see her fighting with a microphone. lol Like, one with a long cable that she could use almost as the chained swords from God of War. I really just want more characters announced, thats all.

p4a2 is a sequel. The game will not be even be close to the same game.

1) they literally double the roster with shadow characters. They play nothing like their normal counter parts and even have some different normals

2) new characters

3) drastic balance update. Chie can't do sweep into 5D anymore. Nor can Yu do his oki off sweep.

It scares me how fast you work sometimes.

I will throw up a disclaimer and say that two minor lines in that trailer, the first quip from Shadow Yukiko and one of Sho's, were difficult for me to make out confidently. I'm not having the best day today personally, so my concentration might have taken a bit of a hit on those two lines. So if any other Japanese speakers come upon those lines and they turn out to not be great indeed, I'd be happy to correct them via annotation! I otherwise do stand by the major points presented in the trailer and the vast majority of it should be guaranteed rock solid.

I think it goes to show that in a world of souped up fighting game add-ons, it's a confusing title that would probably have a "2" on it if the original title weren't already a mouthful enough as is.

I'm so hyped for this game! It may seem like Persona 5 is so far away, but we'll still be getting PLENTY of Persona up until then. That is, if everything is localized...

So there are actually two versions of Sho: one where he has his Persona and another where he doesn't. His title differs between both versions and so does his portrait. He also has a different movelist. It might be a P4A2 normal/Shadow version differentiation or it could be a Labrys and Shadow Labrys differentiation that took two slots like in P4A.

I doubt that was due to the region lock, more the game being a breath of fresh air gameplay-wise.

This is the fighting game I'm looking forward to the most next year, and the only current Arc series I like (I don't like GG or BB)

Not sure. This gif I just made from the stream makes it seem like he's a background character, the way he just disappears after talking for a while for Chie to appear.

Hopefully I'm just over-analyzing and he's playable.

It's not confirmed either way, but that sprite kinda looks unfinished seeing as it's composed of a single frame.

On one hand, I wouldn't think a non-playable character would be teased like they were in the trailer and if he's to have a significant role in the story, being playable would make sense. On the other hand, there's that scene where he's with Yukari in which it could be thought that he'll just be an NPC that is involved in the events somehow.

We'll see, though I doubt we'll find out anytime soon.

I doubt they'd not only tease Adachi at the end of the trailer, plus make a sprite for him if he wasn't going to be playable. I'd be pretty upset if that was the case, anyway.

Looking at that gif, Yukari and Chie have their unique protraits for the game while Adachi just has his old one from P4.

This probably will be the case. He was shown off fairly close to when they announced the PS3 version too, so it makes sense.

Probably for Sho with a Persona since it seems only his version without a Persona will be playable in arcades tomorrow (or today in Japan time).

Probably a time release unlock in the arcades. I see zero reason to tease him unless he was playable. I highly doubt they would tease him just for story purposes or whatever.

You can't really tell from the shadow, but the art of him at the end of the trailer looks new so I imagine that will be his character art when he's revealed as playable.
