Hype factor increasing....

I came here expecting this.

OH HELL YESSSS
 

You guys wanting mid-20 somethings instead of teenagers need to understand that japanese college life is way, way, way, way more boring than high school life. There's a reason why there's so much less anime revolving around it. Everyone is either a slacker or a genius, and there are no clubs, school trips, beach parties, etc.

I've never experienced life as a Japanese high school student, but I don't think high school is realistically represented in anime.

I cancelled my SMT IV preorder cause I got my SMT fix playing Soul Hackers. If this comes out next year I'm in.

I explained this aspect earlier. What I'm hoping is that international sales fuel them to model the game after the western campus experience with that Japanese feel.

Anyways It will surely be high school, not that it is bad.

Yes and no. It's exaggerated in a lot of ways. The school uniforms are never quite that fashionable, the school clubs not quite that amazing, and the teachers are... well, like teachers. :p

That said, to a degree it is grounded in reality, and Japanese people tend to look back on their high school days more fondly than anything else growing up.

But it's the same game as Persona 3 without the cutscenes. Also FeMC. Also Vincent's in it. Also it's the quickest way to get through P3

I agree with the clamoring for a 20-something cast. After playin Catherine, I'd like them to explore that age group again

But Vincent acts exactly like a wishy-washy weak teenage harem lead so what's the diff except he grows as a character and is written better?

Shouldn't people care about better characters and writing then a higher number?

I'm sort of amazed they didn't have it already, really. Indeed, I'm not sure this isn't just a bit of ensuring it's available for the future.
 
Hey, that was AnimeGAF!
The amount of weird ass Igor asset manipulation says otherwise XD but I will see in the next Famistu tease =P
