    I only just realized that Akihiko was largely desynced from the rest of the partners at the beginning was hinting at how he keeps charging forward without his teammates to beat up strong shadows and Mitsuru scolding him on how that's not how a team works!

      Akihiko has some of the best partner dances in the game precisely because of the lack of coordination with most of them. Because it's perfect characterization. Mitsuru can wrangle him into line a little, and Ken can pull him into coordination, but he's mostly out there fighting on his own, even on the dance floor.

  • @Alfrodo8
    @Alfrodo8 ปีที่แล้ว +506

    One of my favorite bits of Shinji's choreography is how right after the Fever Time ends he walks backwards reaching his hand out to the partner BUT when Ken dances with him, Ken reaches out to him the same way right before the end of the Fever Time so they match up together 😭
    EDIT (Like a whole day later): Checking it again and ACTUALLY Shinji's gesture after the end of Fever Time is only TOWARDS his partner when he dances with Ken, because the other 3 leave the stage the other way (behind him instead of in front of him), so it only works that way with Ken 🥲

    The Shinji/Mitsuru dance is underrated because of the quality of the dances sandwiching it, but it's one of the best partner dances in the game, and shows a rare vulnerable Mitsuru.

    • @Neis999
      @Neis999 ปีที่แล้ว +96

      It's also amazing where not only does it show Mitsuru as vulnerable, but she still couldn't support Shinji when she starts getting overwhelmed by the problems her family's companies have caused for everyone and herself as she runs off at the end of the sequence.

    My favorite bit in Sho & Makoto is just Makoto walking towards him. Sho has a sword pointed at his chest and another ready to swing, Makoto has _maybe_ his Evoker, but he doesn't even reach for it, he just walks towards the crazy dude with the swords with his _hands in his pockets_ and _Sho_ is the one who backs away. Not just "no effs given", Makoto outright _intimidates_ the guy while unarmed. He's so freakin' cool!
    Also Shinji and Ken crushed my heart and I don't think I'm ever going to recover.

      @@davidpoa7775 Listening to Liz's VA's tone and choice of words when Makoto reached an epiphany to no longer be depressed, you can kind of tell that Liz may be acting goofy on purpose to push Makoto in the right direction. When she departs, she kind of gives him a "Good job finally figuring yourself out, you got it from here on out".
      She is an interesting character where there are times she is completely chaotic, and then suddenly her mannerisms turn 180 and she becomes a total professional. Miyuki Sawashiro is a master-class voice actress. Tara Platt as her English VA is phenomenal in bringing out Liz's charm too.

    For anyone who’s curious, here’s the rough average scores for each dancer:
    Makoto: 90,88
    Ken: 90,63
    Akihiko: 58,13
    Mitsuru: 86,67
    Elizabeth: 71,33
    Yukari: 88,67
    Fuuka: 68,57
    Aigis: 89,72
    Shinjiro: 105
    Junpei: 91
    Theodore: 97
    Labrys: 87,14
    Sho: 98,75
    Things to keep in mind: For my own sanity I decided to simplify the scores a little. So every dance in the 80-85 for example were counted as 80. This means that the averages are not 100% accurate, but I do not have thw time to get the exact scores. The 100+ all got 105 points, the Ken Shinji dance got 115 and the Akihiko tiers got 10 and 20 points respectively.
    Idk if anyone asked for these, but since I made the calculations I might as well share them here!

    I absolutely adore Shinji’s partner dances. All of them speak to the different relationships he has with the cast that dances with him. Makoto and him are connected a bit, but it’s clear Makoto is having a bit of a hard time staying with Shinji because he’s not as familiar with him as Akihiko or Mitsuru. Mitsuru is a lot more in time with him, but ultimately you can still feel a real disconnect between the two. Akihiko is completely in sync with him most of the time, because they both know each other the best. And Ken…oh boy, that one also makes me tear up.
    I also adore Makoto’s dance with Sho. At first for me it seemed like an odd choice, like maybe they just needed a fourth and said “Hey, let’s throw Makoto in there,” but after thinking about it more, this is the way I interpret it: even though they never meet, I interpret this as showing that Sho would never have even lasted a second in P4AU with Makoto around. Unlike the other partners, who are mostly on the defensive and are clearly struggling with Sho’s power, Makoto easily handled him, and even walks away from him without turning back. Not to say Narukami is a slouch (he did beat him after all), but even he had a hard time with Sho. In short, this is the answer (haha see what I did there?) to the what-if scenario of Makoto facing off against Sho.

    • @nahte123456
      @nahte123456 ปีที่แล้ว +36

      In fairness to Makoto and Sho, Makoto isn't just a monster due to power but his attitude. Perhaps best shown in the first movie, when he, Junpie, and Yukari first enter Tartarus he instantly starts running at enemies, summoning his Persona right in their face and blasting fire as he's there.
      Makoto would not put up with Sho's shit, Sho captures the others like in Ultimax and Makoto will go right to Armageddon. He'll sort out the details later, after he's won.

    Edit: Off-topic, there's something I really like about Makoto and Sho's choreography. Compared to the other three, where Sho's on the offensive, he's fighting/dancing on the *defensive* since Makoto is able to get in close, and Makoto is the only one to actually land a hit in.

    I love how when you watch P5 is all about style, P4 is all about the happiness between friendship and P3 is all about the connections that never breaks, that feeling of you missing someone dearly but moving on. Every frame of Makoto looking as his friends is a gem. That's why I feel like P3P being ported to platforms instead of a remaster like P4G or a Remake is a crime. For all the horrible mechanics in P3, that game is all about a very serious and important message and I love it.

    Not gonna lie, that Shinji and Makoto dance had me choked up by the end. I still find myself coming back to these because of what they symbolize. All of Shinji's are just so good, especially. So much storytelling in those dances. The way Makoto won't smile or look at him directly, the look on Akihiko's face when Shinji walks away, the way Mitsuru RUNS when she exits her scene with Shinji also hits something fierce, and of course, that Ken dance...

    I'm crying in the club, because I'm so glad we have the dancing spin-offs, the Q spin-offs, and the Arena/Strikers spin-offs, which all allow the characters to be as in-character as they can possibly be and it works because we love them and we love their interactions.

    • @t.a.g.8720
      @t.a.g.8720 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Agreed. The spin-off games let the personalities of these characters shine after their story arcs (both personal and main plot wise). The games gives us their development and the spin-offs give us their maturity.
      I'm always wishing for sequel stories with these characters after their games. More of the P-Thieves improving society post disbanding. More of the Investigation Team years after their journey. More of SEES now that they're practically adults. And SOMETHING with P1 and P2 characters pls.

What is the story behind that (don’t tell me, this is rhetorical).

    I find it EXTREMELY amusing that the bottom tier list went through a few changes all because Akihiko is adamant on doing things his way while simultaneously ghosting his friends.
    ... And that shortly after Liz and Fuka decided to get inspired, leading to their later appearances being seen as "Please acknowledge your partner" unlike their beginning ones in the video.

    Fuuka it almost looks like she’s trying to avoid aigis and when she isn’t avoiding her, she doesn’t look to happy about it.
    Considering what’s happening in this context it makes so much sense, Fuuka doesn’t want anyone to fight, and was very reluctant to help aigis anyway.

    • @mrtyrant1680
      @mrtyrant1680 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Most of the group dynamic in the game was poorly developed. Especially in comparison to 4 and 5. (Honestly, they barely felt like a group of friends and the shit that went down in the Answer just proved it. {Fuck, imagine The Investigation Team or the Phantom Thieves going through that dilemma, I literally can't even imagine them even considering not going back to save Yu or Ren, even with the revelation of what really happened later, it's still showed how the SEES were barely friends.)

  • @Nono-Bunny
    @Nono-Bunny ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I actually really liked Akihiko and Fuuka in Wiping All Out, it definitely feels like Fuuka is scanning for shadows outside of his immediate visibility while he's going ham on those near him, like... It's a great battle reenactment moment for me- Akihiko rushing in fists ablazing with Fuuka doing her job and making sure he's safe, and he appreciates how she supports his style and acknowledges her for it at the end.
    Like for two of the worst spacecases when it comes to partner dancing, the way these two managed to interact and work together *just enough* here was genuinely impressive and definitely felt telling of the importance of a navigator looking over your frontline fighters, especially the reckless ones!

    Also to add salt into the wound that CrystAAHHL didn't point out with the grandma video is that she put Labrys in P3 and not Fuuka or Metis. Labrys, even though she fits with the P3 story, is technically is from Persona 4's story as she only appears(other than Dancing) in Persona 4 Arena and Ultimax. Poor Fuuka and Metis.

  • @youremeraldstar
    @youremeraldstar ปีที่แล้ว +7

    So I watched the p5 partner dances sinced i finished the game but avoided this video until I finished playing p3p so I wouldn't spoil myself on characters and their interactions, and looking at the quality disparity between the two dancing games is like night and day. I thought the p5 dances were cute, but this is just... so much more. Everyone's dances were so full of character (even the ones where their partnership weren't all there lmao) that I just look back at p5d and think just how robbed they were. I can't wait to finish p4g now so I can watch their partner dances.
    Also can we talk about just how gut-wrenching Shinji's dances were? I've never cried at a dance before but holy shit they really wanted to tear your heart out, especially with Ken.

  • @cronoa_hourglass2184

    I just realized that makoto, yuu and Akira have ways of dancing that suit almost all their friends, emphasizing their position as wildcarts.3 people who use more than one "Persona" as if they always had a mask for each person they meet

  • @LD_art
    @LD_art ปีที่แล้ว +11

    what i get from makoto's and shinji's is how the both don't care about their own lives but put others above them, hence the reason they have similar choreography, and for me the reason he looks away is the guilt that someone else died for another, and how makoto is still around after that
    and if we're going from the movies, both have a lot of comparible aspects, first seeming unkind or uncaring they have softs spots for others and are naturally nice and kind people, shown by the choreography, and the reason makoto looks away is the guilt of being the reason that shinji is dead, as the consequence of his selfeshness wanting to keep the dark hour, leaving many people traumatized much like shinji did with ken, which is why shinji leaves SEES and tries to become a wall and makoto does the same before meeting ryoji in the 3rd movie

    Fuuka is not empty-headed, she's just shy around boys. It's obvious that there are 2 dances for each fever, instead of four, and that they change with the partner's gender, so I think my theory makes sense. Also her Heartful Cry dance suffered from story telling, because she was the only person on both sides in that fight and she is trying to protect everybody in her dance. Doesn't look too good but it has meaning.
    P.S I know I am trying too hard to protect her, but that's what my heart is saying
