kind of like in the game where there were people pretending to be phantom thieves without knowing they were in the presence of the actual ones. its surprising how realistic the game ended up being despite the numerous absurdities
Erika being in Shibuya while Persona music is playing, but nobody knows she’s Ann reminds me of the Phantom Thieves being around literally everyone talking about them without knowing they are right there.
@@TylerA52903 Gee I wonder why an actress who uses only her voice for a character in an English localization of a game isn't recognized in the country of Japan, it has to be because she has a mask on
I was just at the part where I told Akechi that Ryuji was a phantom thief because I thought telling this like a joke was the least suspicious way of dealing with the situation and Ryujis reaction basically confirmed it :D
@@roseowl yeah, but still. She officially voices Ann, but being unrecognized is like acting out the fact that nobody knows that Ann is a Phantom Thief.
5:51 so cool that P5 has reached the kind of iconic status that you could be walking irl in parts of Tokyo that the game made more recognizable and hear Life Will Change come on.
Fun fact but at the same time super sad on my part. I knew him as Arataki Itto before I knew him as Ryuji and it bothers me I played genshin before persona 5.
It's so wild that even her regular speaking voice sounds like Ann Hell, she straight up LOOKS like Ann Atlus straight up hired Ann to play Ann, 10/10 casting
Dang, her voice actress really IS just as exuberant and adorable as Ann herself, it really did feel like I was watching Ann explore around. The ACTUAL Persona references are crazy too, I love that Tokyo did that. What an awesome tribute.
Japanese local here. I'm so glad to see you enjoying the honeymoon here in Tokyo. Just FYI, the neighborhood near Leblanc (a small bar in real life) is not entirely a residential spot as there are more restaurants, diners, and bars than housing. Definitely not a place to hold 1000 tourists or shooting cosplay but just casually checking out is no problem. This is also a small trivia but there's a building called Carrot Tower near the station that has observation deck on 26th floor. And there's one specific window from which you can look down the roof of Leblanc and the bathhouse (the building actually appears in the game as a background during Shido's election campaign when Ryuji goes face to face with him). Anyways the small tips aside I hope you enjoyed the rest of the trip in Japan.
I love how Central Street was playing the music and had a "Steal your heart." sign while one of the Phantom Thieves was walking down it. Not going to lie, for a second when you panned up to look at the giant Panda, I was half expecting to see a Hologram of a flying bank.
Gotta respect that "yusuke gotta be 'round here somewhere" because both it'd be funny if someone there wad named yusuke, and she remembered yusuke's hangout spot perfectly
That's pretty surreal how Persona 5 music played as you went down the street. As coincidence would have it I started another playthrough a few days back. Thanks for bringing so many characters in gaming and anime to life, including Ann. You look like you had a great time over there.If I ever win the Lotto I'll go there myself lol. Hope life treats you and your husband well.
I had no idea how realistic they recreated things in the game. I actually feel like I know the area and I've never been there in real life. That is crazy!
I didn't know she's also Ann's VA! I love Venti, too! And I'm recently addicted to Persona 5 with 80 hours and still ongoing. This video is interesting. 💖
I've never felt so familiar with a city I've never been to in a country I've never been to. Persona 5 is really going to be a lifesaver if I ever decide to go to Tokyo, particularly when it comes to the subway lines!
7:02 Not me laughing at how auto-subtitle thingy turned "Gon and Killua" into "going in Cuba" 😂 Great video, it really makes me want to visit Japan once again!
I feel like a lot of voice actors don't even play the stuff they wind up in. Was pretty cool to see you hanging out at just the right spot in the underground mall, I saw that and I was like "Damn she played it!"
It's crazy they modeled a whole city after persona 5. So imagine my suprise when I found out the Egyptians built a empire in anticipation of the games release.
just finished replaying P5R, it's one of my favorite games of all time. This video was totally cool! I love seeing the real places that games portray, as well as the voice actors.
Not only did Tokyo seem familiar in this video thanks to Persona 5, but also thanks to NEO: The World Ends With You (especially the Crossing and that statue near Shibuya Station). 5:44 The stars aligned for that very moment
Amazing video!! The music of the game, the places...all is amazing!! It's so similar the reality to the game, is rare but at the same time increible...
That's so cool. Great video, I like the music used for each segment, felt really fitting. Especially they playing persona music while you're there. That's so cool
I'm a Japanese student and a big fan of PERSONA. I thought want to visit to Tokyo but I have been to Tokyo yet so thank you enough for take this video. I'm very very happy with she seems to enjoy traveling in Tokyo and Persona5 is loved by another country people. Thank Persona! Thank everyone! We are friends!
@@365DaysOfBald She aint white nor blonde (black hair), the germanic surname and the nose indicate that she's a member of the chosen people's tribe, likely ashkenazim.
OK, that's SUPER awesome!!!! The Persona music playing in Shibuya is awesome! I JUST found out Halloween has picked up in popularity in Japan. It was not a huge thing up until the 2000s it's HUGE in Shibuya.
Loved this video, you always put a smile on my face being so energetic & light hearted. You both did a great work with this video showing Shibuya, also it was completely amazing when the Persona music was playing. 🤩
Right now I’m playing Persona 5 Royal new game plus for the fifth time and I can’t get enough of it 😻😁 Thank you and everyone who was involved with Persona 5 original, Royal, and Strikers all of them stole my heart ( no pun intended ) ❤
I just started my 2nd playthrough a few weeks ago, I'm working towards all the thieves den achievements, I should get almost all of them this playthrough except 1, I just finished Shido's palace, working on prepping to fight the twins
@@mrpool4855 no it's the "friend all the romantic candidates" this playthrough I'm purposely dating every single romantic candidate (it feels so wrong) but I'm not about to do 10+ playthroughs, I love this game but I don't have time for that lol
@@shneegle6995 I know right, to me it’s just wrong to do that to Ren so I’m gonna bite the bullets and play and beat the game 7 more times including Strikers ( for timeline purposes )wish me luck
Been to Tokyo several times but I don't think I ever thought to look for the underground mall. Been to the hideout and crossing and shinjuku and a bunch of other locations, but never realized the underground mall was that accurate
I went to Sangenjaya (where the developer said Yongenjaya is based on). Very cool location. Haven't really walked around, maybe next time I'll go there. Apparently Atlus's office was there at one point.
Lmfaoo. I was just watching the interview video with Cassandra Lee Morris where you guys were talking about the trip being delayed and this magically popped up in my reccomended just as it was released. Good release timing guys >:) 👍
I think you're pretty much right about where you learn speeches. And where Yusuke is. Funny how these areas get burned into your mind. I've been to Tokyo and Harajuku once before all the way back in 2008, but I don't think I was at Shibuya, that'll be next on my list when I go back. 4:55 And this is Oyabun Coffee in the game. Unfortunately it's not an SP vending machine. Love your performances as Ann, and Juna in Trails of Cold Steel.
I visited the undeground mall in 2019 where Ann hangs around. The mall was looking aged and not sparkly as depicted in the game and the florist was also there. As shown in your video the florist moved after the renovation. Unfortunately, the mall had a complete renovation and is completely changed. You didn't visit the juice bar and Yuuske's meeting spot. Maybe next time. Also visited the Ginza line ticket gates before it was removed and the ginza line station moved further north.
Broo that’s crazy persona 5 was so popular that they made a whole city after it. Massive respect
I know right! Amazing!
😂
*Just like Egypt…*
And they made a person who sounds like Ann! Crazy, right?
😂
Life Will Change was playing on speakers in Shibuya while an actual Phantom Thief was walking through. That’s perfection.
kind of like in the game where there were people pretending to be phantom thieves without knowing they were in the presence of the actual ones. its surprising how realistic the game ended up being despite the numerous absurdities
@@hamtier Now that I think about it, it would have been more appropriate to play "Tokyo Daylight"
Ryuji: For real!!
Now all thats left is to hear a bunch of people talk about how they hate/love the phantom thieves
Erika being in Shibuya while Persona music is playing, but nobody knows she’s Ann reminds me of the Phantom Thieves being around literally everyone talking about them without knowing they are right there.
To be fair she does have a mask on. It’s hard to recognize anyone in a mask
@@TylerA52903 if ur wondering why she wasn’t recognised, tell me what the Japanese ann va is like
@@TylerA52903 Gee I wonder why an actress who uses only her voice for a character in an English localization of a game isn't recognized in the country of Japan, it has to be because she has a mask on
lol, you are goddamn right
@@zwein1817 💀💀💀💀
2:40
Ann chilling at the hideout waiting for her friends until suddenly Ryuji pops in and shouts “HEY EVERYBODY IMMA PHANTOM THIEF!!!”
Ryuji : DID YOU KNOW THAT WE ARE THE PHANTOM THIEF!!! *shout really loud*
I was just at the part where I told Akechi that Ryuji was a phantom thief because I thought telling this like a joke was the least suspicious way of dealing with the situation and Ryujis reaction basically confirmed it :D
That spot is really nice for people watching cuz its directly above Scramble Crossing.
Fo real!
@@monkeymaann For real?!
the fact that they play persona 5 music so loud in the city and no one knows you're the one behind ann persona 5 is legendary
Well I'm sure most of them only know the Japanese actor
@@roseowl yeah, but still. She officially voices Ann, but being unrecognized is like acting out the fact that nobody knows that Ann is a Phantom Thief.
Well they may be familiar with their Japanese voice actress versus the English one though as person does have Japanese voices.
@@paperluigi6132 like when Henry Cavill went to do stuff with a Shirt with Superman's logo
Because the real voice of Ann is japanese + everyone play in japanese for better immersion and better voice acting.
5:51 so cool that P5 has reached the kind of iconic status that you could be walking irl in parts of Tokyo that the game made more recognizable and hear Life Will Change come on.
That was actually crazy wasn't expecting that! 😭
And that another part of Tokyo has a massive Calling Card plastered on it.
"Hey that girl has a red bow in her hair like sumire! I wonder if she knows about the game?"
What would have been better is if they played "Tokyo Daylight" during the day and "Beneath the Mask" at night or if its raining
Now it would be perfect if Yakuza games's OST being played in real life Tokyo
I would love to see Max Mittelman going to Shibuya shouting “I LOVE BEING A PHANTOM THIEF!”
FOR REAL
"All right! I'm gonna bust loose!"
Fun fact but at the same time super sad on my part. I knew him as Arataki Itto before I knew him as Ryuji and it bothers me I played genshin before persona 5.
WHAT?!
@@viktorbjorkman5632 Bro everytime he says it i feel like he's going to go "I'm gonna bust a nut!" its so cary for some reason.
It's so wild that even her regular speaking voice sounds like Ann
Hell, she straight up LOOKS like Ann
Atlus straight up hired Ann to play Ann, 10/10 casting
Oh yea. She has blonde hair... like Ann ! 🥸
and Makoto 's vocie actor looks like hers too
Not quite looks-wise.
Dang, her voice actress really IS just as exuberant and adorable as Ann herself, it really did feel like I was watching Ann explore around. The ACTUAL Persona references are crazy too, I love that Tokyo did that. What an awesome tribute.
I wonder if anyone there in Japan played the English dub of the video game and recognized your voice
I'm sure some people have to help learn english but I think the voice she uses for Ann is different from her regular voice.
@@red2977 are you sure because when I compare Ann’s voice with Erika’s it is 90% the same
I liked her voice acting but when I played my 2nd play in japananese I found her take to he more annoying than what she was portrayed in Japanese
@@holy9781 the voice actor for the japanese version is a different voice actor
@@red2977 Yeah, that’s why they’re comparing the different takes.
The Persona 5!
The Persona 5 is Real!
Can we get much higher ?

I didn't realize how accurately they tried to capture parts of Tokyo, very cool!
Yeah I thought it was based on a fictional Tokyo, that's dope it was based on the real one.
@@Dragonk116 Not just Tokyo! P5 Scramble (P5 Strikers in US) takes you all over Japan, and every location is based on real life iconic locations.
Yeah, what the heck I didn't expect that at all. That's surreal
Yeah, I love how bright everything is! Something I’m not used to in cities. And love all the Mario/Pokémon stuff being on display - very cool.
I like how tall Erika is compared to everybody.
Ikr
5'11" vs 6ft
Jokes aside how tall is she irl?
@@pigeonleader Apparently 5'9
This is my dream! I want to go back to Tokyo and visit all the game locations! I‘m happy you had fun! ❤
hope you do. it was fun with my group of friends to see
I am Japanese.
Thank you for coming to visit Japan.
Thank you for giving life to Ann.
I'm sorry if my words are wrong.
Thank you so much for the kind comment! Japan was incredible, I can't wait to visit again :)
I speak English.
You phrased your sentences correctly.
Your English is better than my Japanese.
Great English!
Imagine walking through the streets of Tokyo and overhearing Ann’s voice
I am from Japan, but I have not been back there for a few years. Glad that you and your husband are enjoying Tokyo area. Food in Japan is the best!
That's pretty surreal how Persona 5 music played as you went down the street.
As coincidence would have it I started another playthrough a few days back.
Thanks for bringing so many characters in gaming and anime to life, including Ann.
You look like you had a great time over there.If I ever win the Lotto I'll go there myself lol.
Hope life treats you and your husband well.
This is a another universe, where Ann is the protagonist of the entire game.
Ann: I should write something...
I had no idea how realistic they recreated things in the game. I actually feel like I know the area and I've never been there in real life. That is crazy!
I didn't know she's also Ann's VA! I love Venti, too! And I'm recently addicted to Persona 5 with 80 hours and still ongoing. This video is interesting. 💖
Wait what! I knew she was Ann's voice actress but Venti? How didn't I know this!?
She is also the voice of shinobu in demon slayer
@@Joryu. she tones it up for boy voice so understandable but I caught it immediately after hearing venti speak
Tokyo is an amazing place. Glad I visited there a few years ago.
I've never felt so familiar with a city I've never been to in a country I've never been to. Persona 5 is really going to be a lifesaver if I ever decide to go to Tokyo, particularly when it comes to the subway lines!
Hope you had fun!! The persona music was very well timed too 😂
So wholesome. You've earned yourself another subscriber 👍 I love how Life Will Change just started randomly playing over the street speakers
7:02 Not me laughing at how auto-subtitle thingy turned "Gon and Killua" into "going in Cuba" 😂

Hope you guys are having fun!❤️

Erika thinking: they don't know, they don't know that I'm a Phantom Thieve😔
The only thing she has to do is to yell that she is a phantom thief… but that’s not her job.
It's crazy they modeled a whole city after persona 5. So imagine my suprise when I found out the Egyptians built a empire in anticipation of the games release.
I love how Yakuza series and Persona series made people familiar with real life districts in Tokyo
Glad to see you’re having tons of fun. Congratulations on you guys’ wedding. Wishing you two lots of love😊❤️❤️
I just had this mental image of wandering around Tokyo and pointing at everything and going "possible Persona/Yakuza reference??"
wow! Tokyo and all of Japan is Beautiful! I hope you had fun Erika!
Man, I can't belive they made Tokyo real after Persona 5 came out!
They had Tokyo already done for TWEWY
just finished replaying P5R, it's one of my favorite games of all time. This video was totally cool! I love seeing the real places that games portray, as well as the voice actors.
The fact that actual P5 music was playing was just perfect. This is why I "simp" for Ann! Enjoy your honeymoon dear.
not simping..
No
Dawg what??
she don't know you lil bro 😹
that’s why we have morgana
Tokyo citizens! Ann, Venti, Yumeko, Joan of Arc, Kurpika, etc. Many characters are right in front of you!

She did an amazing job voice acting Ann from persona 5 and other characters from different games.
Woah! It’s so cool that they played Life will Change there! I have to wonder if it’s a promo thing for the multi-console release of the P5R game!
it is!
