The uniqueness about Yu compared to other protagonists in the persona series, He's more sensitive when its comes to friendship, for the few who don't know his story, his parents work overseas so he's constantly transferring schools, which is why he never really got a chance to have real friends, until he met yosuke and the others, now he doesn't want to lose that close bond he made with them, plus the animation showed that he did have a shadow and it was because he didn't want to admit that he was lonely basically.
Ratsuterra48 Thats just what makes him unique, but not compared to the other Persona protags. Makoto was a representation of a hikkimori and somebody opening up to the world and reaching nirvana, Ren is a representation of power and expression through oppression.
SA24-Coldy Mcphearson It's likely because most of his interactions are with his friends and emotional people (Ragna, Ruby, etc). Remember that Yu is a guy who can properly interact with literally anyone. It could also be the voice actor being excited to voice him again.
Canonically speaking, this would take place after P4, P4A, P4AU, P4D, and P4G's golden ending, as in the p4a story, he mentions that hed gone back to his original school. If you factor in Yu in PQ and P4tA where he directly mentions his strength comes from the investigation team, and his shadow was him not being able to be alone, it makes sense why hes grown so passionate.
Oh Yu and with your social link power, never change. Nice to see his bromance with Yosuke is still strong. Kind of funny that he impressed by Gord's manliness, need to step up his swag power. Also when Yu & Es win, damn their name is so punny.
wow, all these new Social Links look great, Yu might be able to solo Nyx after this. Sounds like she's trying to sabotage him by spreading the kingpin thing....nice tactic
Adonis Tenebrai Wait Nyx is behind the great seal right Now she can't do anything. Plus Nyx isn't even technically evil, she's just responding to mankind's wishes it's Erobus that need to go.
kinds weird that he's on a last name basis with Chie and Yukiko like in the anime in this game, especially since as P4A shows he and the rest of the investigation team canonically are on a first name basis.
My guess is the voice director. I'm fairly certain he's on a last name basis with them in Japan. The ATLUS localization team probably sees that being silly in English due to the cultural differences, but whoever's in charge here just did a straight localization.
They mentioned on an Arc Live that the localizers came into the issue that the Persona characters use honorifics with everyone in the game like Ragna-san and Jin-san so they could either completely ignore that aspect of their dialogue or just have the Persona characters speak to each other like they do in Japanese. In the end they decided to keep it as close as possible to the original Japanese. It also probably has to do with ArcSysUS doing the dubbing for this game as opposed to Atlus
Es: "Yu Narukami, why do you fight?" Yu: "To protect my friends, and all that I hold dear." Jin: "Will you two stop standing on me? Especially if you're gonna throw your sword into the ground?"
"Whoa! Don't just jump in front of me like that! I mean, you're good, but my right hand won't listen to me." Says the guy holding his sword with his LEFT hand in his character portrait...
The Ghost With The Most True, but he doesn't use his sword with that hand. So warning Yu with specifically mentioning his right hand seems a bit silly. Fun fact, in a sheet of concept art showing all the different designs that were thought of for Hyde, the last one showed him holding Insulator in one hand and a sheath in the other. I guess that sheath was removed from the final product.
Gehrman If you want to play persona I suggest you start from persona 3 fes then go to persona 4 golden, yu is the mc in persona 4, persona 4 golden is for the vita so I suggest you buy a ps tv they’re cheap, and then after you play those two, play persona q it’s optional tho, then persona 4 arena ultimax, however there is a normal persona 4 arena, and they both have a different story, but in persona 4 ultimax there is a dlc which recaps everything that happened in the normal persona 4 arena, then play persona 5, hope i helped.
Ethan Perez Yu: My cat senses are tingling! Blake:wh-what.. there aren't any cats here, that would be... Yu: I saw your bow move. *Holding up some fish* Blake: ... Only because you have fish will that slide...
So the Tower or Death for Ragna then? Judgement seems accurate for Es, sence she guards the Azure. Or at least I think she does. I haven't played Central Fiction either.
Epsy Blue From the interaction, I kind of like a social link for es where she tries to learn about Persona and Yu's wildcard ability. And in turn, Yu teaches her how to live like others and she becomes more human. A milked trope, yes, but thats just something I feel Yu would do for Es.
Zeldrio I think Es goes through something like that in Xblaze. But yeah that sounds about right. I don't even know if that's the same Es any way. It sounds like a social link like that would be represented by the Aeon arcana.
Excluding Yosuke I find it pretty odd that Narukami are on last name basis with Chie/Yukiko, what's with that? Also Narukami don't get why you're so impressed with Gordeau's manliness when your friends with Kanji & meet Akihiko so if anything you should be use to interacting with guys like that by now XD
I'll explain this. In the Japanese version of Persona games, the team generally refer to each other by last names. Yu bonds the more most with Yosuke, so they go on a first name basic (that's seen in the Persona 4 the Animation).
He and the P4 crew calling each other by their last names in English is what's off. It reeks of a translator just doing a literal translation without checking what previous P4 translations did.
They don't refer to each other by last names in the English dub. It's Chie-san and Yosuke-kun, not Satonaka-san and Hanamura-kun in the dubs of other P4 stuff.
There have been a few times where they call each other by their last names. Chie usually does it to Yosuke to tease him and Yu does it when he's not being personal or when he's being polite.
Yu and ragna are kung jin and scorpion from mk x, ichigo and his father from bleach & jonathan and dio from jojo part 1 Yu and yosuke are lelouch and suzaku from code geass, izaya & shinra from durarara, & sasori and sasuke from naruto
It's not supposed to make sense. You don't get it because there's nothing to get there. It's not a random quote that you can hear him say to other fighters, but it doesn't have a hidden meaning behind it.
Yu just running around trying to make more Social Links no biggie.
@@gavin2613 *That's Yu for you
Ragna: I don't care about your bonds crap
Yu: cool cool...but our bonds are still connected
Adloquium Dubious Will Yu ever realize he has to stop shoving “bonds” down people’s throats?
Hey, he needs those Social Links. Also, I’m pretty sure that Margaret is making up Arcanas with all the people Yu is bonding with
@@indiraturner5506 That's what gives him strength, he'd be weak if he had nobody
rank up!
@@indiraturner5506 Thats exactly how Adachi feels
Look at Yu Narukami, being all "buddy buddy" even with people from different worlds!
That's our P4 Protag, all right~!
Alex McNeill dont forget he forgot to turn off his harem power
I'm surprised that he became buddies with RAGNA
wonder what's the arcana with the other character
Marisa Kirisame That's the power of the wild card for you.
Marisa Kirisame he's as good as you are when it comes to stealing hearts
Guess Junes is still giving Yu a lifetime supply of katana sheaths...
Since Yosuke’s father is the manager of the Junes store in Inaba, he probably told him to bring those in for speacial reasons

Ruby watching the P-1 GP with her scroll confirmed
The midnight channel is a cross universal streaming channel
Man, if only Byakuya was in the roster.
Then again, his style also resembles Bancho, especially Izanagi
Is it me, or has Yu gotten bit more... emotionially passionate? I'm so used to him sounding more calm, composed, but not too stoic.
SA24-Coldy Mcphearson It's likely because most of his interactions are with his friends and emotional people (Ragna, Ruby, etc). Remember that Yu is a guy who can properly interact with literally anyone. It could also be the voice actor being excited to voice him again.
Well this probably takes place after persona 4, by that time he is already all about the "strength of your bonds" and has completely opened up.
Canonically speaking, this would take place after P4, P4A, P4AU, P4D, and P4G's golden ending, as in the p4a story, he mentions that hed gone back to his original school. If you factor in Yu in PQ and P4tA where he directly mentions his strength comes from the investigation team, and his shadow was him not being able to be alone, it makes sense why hes grown so passionate.
@daviddare100 I'd say all his stats are max at this point lol. Gotta be all those Mega Beef Bowls he ate for a year.
I can only imagine how clogged his arteries were
Thanks to this video, A team of Es and Yu will forever be known to me as Yunited States
GET OUT!
Don't you mean, Yunited Estates?
Everyday is great at your Yu Es
You Ass win! Perfect
Well played... (slow clap)
Oh Yu and with your social link power, never change. Nice to see his bromance with Yosuke is still strong. Kind of funny that he impressed by Gord's manliness, need to step up his swag power.
Also when Yu & Es win, damn their name is so punny.

chrimbo math that makes sense
-Es: Why do you fight
-Yu: I fight for my friends !
Ike approves.
His bonds give him strengh
*Ike approves of this message.*
"To protect my friends and the ones I hold dear"
Sounds like Ichigo
That's our Yu. Also there are more places to find your kingpin nickname than just the midnight channel.
Es: "Yu Narukami, why do you fight?"
Yu: "To protect my friends, and all that I hold dear."
Jin: "Will you two stop standing on me? Especially if you're gonna throw your sword into the ground?"

I expected him to have interactions with ALL the girls because of...ahem...."the wild card" power
You haven't seen someone with Gordeau's Manly Energy? YOU KNOW KANJI!
"Whoa! Don't just jump in front of me like that! I mean, you're good, but my right hand won't listen to me." Says the guy holding his sword with his LEFT hand in his character portrait...
The imagery is strong with this one.
Esteban Maysonet To be fair, he pulls his sword out of his other hand.
The Ghost With The Most True, but he doesn't use his sword with that hand. So warning Yu with specifically mentioning his right hand seems a bit silly. Fun fact, in a sheet of concept art showing all the different designs that were thought of for Hyde, the last one showed him holding Insulator in one hand and a sheath in the other.

That's why he holds it in his left. Holding it in his right brings too much power
Never played Persona 4 but Yu seems really cool.
Gehrman If you want to play persona I suggest you start from persona 3 fes then go to persona 4 golden, yu is the mc in persona 4, persona 4 golden is for the vita so I suggest you buy a ps tv they’re cheap, and then after you play those two, play persona q it’s optional tho, then persona 4 arena ultimax, however there is a normal persona 4 arena, and they both have a different story, but in persona 4 ultimax there is a dlc which recaps everything that happened in the normal persona 4 arena, then play persona 5, hope i helped.

Jaden Omega ikr! All it’s missing is Naoto and Elizabeth...Then I’d be in heaven. I’m hype to see if dlc gets interactions.
Wildcard _Sho Naoto is already confirmed
So which Social Link/Arcana would the non-Persona characters be? And what Personas would he get?
I'm... kinda thinking the social link with Ragna might end in a second Black Beast...
Es would probably have something related to the Judgement or priestess Arcana. I wouldnt know, cause I never played Central Fiction
So the Tower or Death for Ragna then?
Judgement seems accurate for Es, sence she guards the Azure. Or at least I think she does. I haven't played Central Fiction either.

So no one is gonna talk about Ragna stabbing the shit out of a defeated Jin?
You mean Yu stabbing the shit out of Jin?
Weiss: That was so easy, it’s almost sad
Yu: Sad? I was having fun
Heck yeah
Yu trying to get more Social Links.
Wow sounds for patrick as ragna and johnny yong as yu for best voice actors
"My right hand won't listen to me" nicely spoken
Yu is the definition of "fair play" kinda reminds me of Ryu from SF.
Yu and Ragna. The Grim Reaper social link.

What do you mean
lol ragna flagposting jin's corpse in that first win animation
Can you do Hazama interactions next? :D
when you realize no one at release date of golden named him his actual so you kinda get suprised by it.
Yu is so chill lol
There's something just...I don't know off with the interactions with Yu. I can't think of why.
The Gaming Mole: Brad_Ry he's trying to manwhore his way through the cast for them social links
He and the P4 crew calling each other by their last names in English is what's off. It reeks of a translator just doing a literal translation without checking what previous P4 translations did.
No it's just how Persona is. Persona's dialogue always made use of the Japanese honourifics so it's only reasonable that it would continue here.
They don't refer to each other by last names in the English dub. It's Chie-san and Yosuke-kun, not Satonaka-san and Hanamura-kun in the dubs of other P4 stuff.
There have been a few times where they call each other by their last names.
Chie usually does it to Yosuke to tease him and Yu does it when he's not being personal or when he's being polite.
Yu and ragna are kung jin and scorpion from mk x, ichigo and his father from bleach & jonathan and dio from jojo part 1
