I love how Mitsuru calls out Mr. Ekoda! She's definitely not afraid to stand up against corrupt adults when it's necessary. I noticed throughout the video that everyone still wears their winter uniforms and SEES armbands at this point in the story. I wonder when everyone upgrades to their unique SEES uniforms.
Part 2 of “looking way too hard at the boss designs”! The Empress is supposed to represent a motherly presence that nurtures life and love around her, using her authority to guide her people to a better future. It’s an arcana that celebrates life, basically. The Empress shadow is an obese, cruel monarch, who waves her scepter around pompously and whose belly opens up into an empty chest. A barren and cruel despot. The fight gimmick here - Paradigm Shift - represents her inconsistency, and her (very un-rulerlike) desire to run away from her problems instead of addressing them properly. You’ll find that this - a way to avoid confronting particular issues - is a common theme amongst the shadow bosses, because The Major Arcana all represent a person’s journey through life and the people they’ll meet. The Emperor is the father figure, or perhaps better to say, the more authoritarian companion of the Empress. He is wise, confident in his power, courageous even when he has doubts, and guides his people with his authority to a firm and balanced future. It’s a bit clearer in the old P3 games, but the Emperor shadow’s sword is small and disproportionate to his size - a sign of impotence, essentially. Despite his posturing, his authority is weak, and his long torso and small legs cause him to move in an unsteady, rickety manner, meaning he even lacks stability, to say nothing of reliability. He is pointlessly harsh and manipulative of others to his own ends (see how he and the empress lured students into tartarus to feed on them), and when faced with a problem, he uses Paradigm Shift to try and escape it instead of actually meaningfully addressing it.
Futaba does have HP and SP funnily enough, as well as being able to equip armor and accessories, but they're functionally useless for her (though I hear Luck can help boost her rate of using support skills, but I don't know how true it is)
I agree...Rise Kushikawa admite her analisis skills are more precise than her persona Himiko(inclusive her final persona Kanzeon cannot surpass her). Fuuka final persona is the Greek Goddes Juno.
it's a standard nowadays, but not when the original p3 came out. i know p5 had that feature, but the game told you you had unlocked it through the moon arcana, and you'd often improve it as you leveled the confidant. I think you have to play it to know
No. However, there are special “clocks” in Tartarus that can give a party member of your choice bonus levels so they catch up to your highest level member However these are pretty rare from what I’ve seen, and other than the clocks, you just have to rotate out your party for everyone to gain levels
No, but party members who are lower level are able to level up faster than party members with higher levels. As long as you keep an eye on your team stats, and switch members out when necessary, then your teams stats shouldn’t be lopsided.
I really like Persona and play with reload persona 3 for the first time and while its a great game its infuriating to me that both MC and Fuuka just shot themself in the head without getting any explanation why thats what they should do. A little less infuriating but still troubling is the fact that Yutaba first has really troubles shooting herself (which is quite a normal behavior if ya ask me) but then in the tutorial just shoots herself over and over again without any second guesses. A little more development here and less wasting time until main story starts and this would be my favorite game, but in that regard it falls short in comparison to persona 4. Now hate me please
Fuuka was told that the evoker is not a real gun and all the sees members are told to shoot them selves to summon their persona she did not hesitate because she wanted to save the girl that bullied her. The main character I assume is just fearless I mean even looking at her demeanor nothing really phases him and when he shoots himself to awaken his persona he has a smile on face almost as if he’s enjoying it. Yutaba even has a fear of dying so even putting a fake gun to her head will still be difficult for her to pull the trigger as for her just shooting herself repeatedly that’s probably her just getting over the fear she’s probably used to it now. But I would agree that the p4 awakenings are easier to understand no hate.
@@Ronin-kk4bt did they briefly explains Evoker to Fuuka in the original/FES? Because I can only see that they gave her Evoker and just told her it's not real gun in Reload
You are supposed to find the weaknesses by yourself The analisys is for emergencies and such, if you could just automatically know all of the enemies weakness the game would lose one of its aspects
They shoot themselves with the gun It’s a special gun called an evoker and just like all the other persona awakeners it has special symbolism as well (p4 grasping the future, p5 removing the mask that ‘society’ forces you to put on yourself) and boiled down it is essentially accepting your mortality and understanding that death is a natural part of life, and to keep living despite it. It only functions in the 25th hour of the day, and it’s a special gun that runs on magic powder., which is the same one that Akihiko gave her earlier
@@yourboi5492 I know about evokers, but this gun just catalyst. But I mean why some people have ability to summon persona: PT rebels against society, Investigation team accepted their shadows,and what exactly S.E.E.S. did to have this power?
@@YaroslavShaforostovaccept death. You have to pull the trigger, and a requirement is that you have to be awake during the dark hour. Usually everyone turns into a coffin, but for reasons I don’t remember some people don’t, and some people awake during the dark hour have the ability to summon a persona. Again with the whole symbolism of accepting death, which is a very *very* common theme in this game
@@yourboi5492 It`s steel weird, because I don`t believe that Yukari or Junpei accepted death at the beginning, but they still have personas. And does that mean that if you use evoker on all of the people who awake in dark hour (for example this girl, who was saved by Fuuka) they also will be using persona?
@@YaroslavShaforostov it’s more of the act of pulling the trigger, considering how closely it resembles killing yourself. In the beginning of the game, yukari struggles to pull the trigger and therefore can not summon a persona due to her fear of death, and the death of someone close is usually the catalyst for awakening (see junpei ken and akihiko spoiler warning ofc) To use an evoker you have to first get one, which they are hard to find due to requiring a plume of dusk, and you have to put it to your head and willingly pull without fear while being awake in the dark hour, so if they can do that they can summon a persona. Inv team accepts the parts they don’t like about themselves, PT is more rips off the mask that society forces themselves to wear to conform and sees is accepting their mortality.

Can’t get why did they have do make this an in game cutscene instead of a 2d one like in the original, it looks so much more generic and lacks the direction and atmosphere of the og, and I’m not even the biggest p3 fan
Mitsuru’s kind of a badass for telling off a teacher like that

It's right after the Empress and Emperor Shadows that you get the new battle attire and also access to Theurgy.
Not much later after this moment.

Not a fuuka fan, but she’s precious 😭

Gracias Faz :D
