It never ceases to amaze me how people think Japanese advertisements aren't self aware of their silliness and/or ironic.

It's like someone not knowing English watching an American Old Spice commercial and complaining about how it has nothing to do with deodorant.

same people who laugh at those stupids beer commercials too

lyric

PlayStation4 was 34,980 yen

Inside the console, I didn't know outside world

But I heard everyone's voices

"If only the price was under 30,000 yen"

Then Persona 5, you got me out

So the price is now

29,980 yen 29,980 yen

It's 5,000 yen cheaper than used to be

and it's smaller

Everyone who couldn't decide now can do

And Persona 5 will launch on same day

A student at noon, a phantom thief after school

living a double life. sweet

29,980 yen 29,980 yen

Persona5 and PS4

Would you like to buy both?

"I heard everyone's muttering/grumbling." *The same verb for muttering/grumbling is also used for tweeting.

Spoiler

Sorry to be that guy.

Is there any word on whether P5 is being released in Asia? I know a number of Japanese devs have pointed out that the Asian releases have bumped their sales up a decent amount (Nagoshi with Yakuza being a notable example).

Yes, though the Chinese version is now 2017 (news via ZhugeEX via PS TW facebook)

It's a funny commercial, and I liked her voice.

 

[Lusankya]

Another live-action commercial for those interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40UwIdCOb3g

Most impressed by his ninja mom:

 

[KimonoNoNo]

That was daft in the best possible way.

 

[Zolo]

That was daft in the best possible way.

Canon waifu confirmed.

 

[orthodoxy1095]

This was absolutely brilliant.

 

[Zekra Dezivad]

I don't know what I expected.. still amazing.

 

[Bakkus]

That song was eerily similar to Let It Go, only instead of singing that, she song the price tag for the game, lol.

That part also remembered me the Ginyu Tokusentai song in some manner.

 

[ratsuki]

Ni-maaan kyu-seen kyu-hyaku hachi-juuu yeeen~
Awesome.
Maybe not for Persona5, but as ads for PS4 Slim and make people remember the price, it's very effective. At very least that price lyric will stuck in my head for a few days.

 

[mrmickfran]

so like how are we suppose to avoid spoilers for 5 months?
fucking fan pages that arnt even related to persona on my facebook page posting daybreakers OVA shit so im prettty sure they gonna link a boss video or something

Unfollow everything
Unfriend all anime fans

That's the only way.

You want us to wait almost 2 decades instead? Ok, passing that up the chain!
