you forgot the last part of the fight where the fortune rolls the wheel one last time out of desperation, where it lands on a grim reaper-esque figure but nothing happens... within the fight. when i realized that i went HOLY SHIT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I wasn't originally sold on Saab's Akihiko but he really nailed this scene. I like his Akihiko quite a bit. Literally as I was here I was thinking that the way he said "Look what happened!" would make or break his performance and he crushed it.
Shoutout to the work of the mocap actor and the animators for Shinji's last moments. You can see how desperately and painfully he's trying to breath. Justice Slocum gives a really solid performance in the dub too to really bring it home. Also a small thing, but I love that extra motion of Fuuka kneeling down to take hold of Ken. It's a great subtle moment of characterization and it's nice to see them bring her and Koromaru a little more into the scene.
@@mystery8820 Koro in-universe lost his owner, a priest, due to an car accident. Shinji cares for him too, even when he sweats bullets upon being busted by Aegis. Like Hachiko, his inspiration, our Good Boi has been strong and loyal, even in the darkest of times. Of course, Ken takes care of him as well.
When they first announced 3R, I was very curious how they were going to do Akihiko's Second awakening. Doubly so with all the recasts, as Liam O'Brien absolutely nailed the voice and mannerisms of Aki in the original. The original scene was always so moving, only rivaled by a second awakening of a certain Ace Detective. After hearing this, I gotta say that Saab did a good job with his take on the character. In particular, I liked how more "soft-spoken" he was here, fit the moment and Akihiko's character. O'Brien's take on the character will always be the definitive Akihiko to me, but that doesn't mean Saab's take is bad. Far from it, so props to him. Perhaps "Officer Kurosawa" mentored him lol.
Hah the P4 arena references are crazy with junpei saying how he wants to get back into baseball at the end of the game. Also how Kurosawa (when they’re old enough) wants to go drinking with akihiko and makoto just Like in the scene with Kurosawa and akihiko at the end of episode P3 in arena. Also literally most of the theurgys are special attacks in P4 arena.
Ok but the scene where akihiko takes Shinjis hand and even the blood splatter by Ken. A lot of inspiration was took from the movie (including when makoto pulls junpei out the way in the priestess shadow cutscene) and it’s absolutely amazing. However the way his hand falls out of Akihiko’s did make me cry 😭💙❤️
Can we give an oscar to both Ken & Shinji's New VAs? They both killed it in this scene? My one nitpick is that i wish that they had this scene happen during the fight instead of after it, like in the Movies. In there, the sense of desperation is even greater cause SEES are dealing with 2 Full-Moon Shadows & had to take them down ASAP so they could find Ken & Shinji in time, but they arrived too late. Even so, this was a great scene & that sudden F bomb from Shinji really caught me off guard, in a good way
@@MariusBoss11458 I meant Reunion - Cloud's VA put more effort into the scream in that version. Steve Burton was unable to yell, hence why they recorded Tidus' VA in vanilla Crisis Core
I never realized this until now, after seeing it in reload, but Ken's story is the one that feels the most like the origin story for the main protagonist of an RPG. If he becomes a college roommate and a future persona installment I will go nuts (in a good way).
It's weird lol, P3 OG voice cast is very distinct, for better and for worse. I overall like the New Cast, even if I prefer Liam O'Brien and Michelle Ruff's takes on their respective characters.
My opinion now that I’ve seen more scenes: - Still mixed with Yukari’s - Been warming up to Akihiko and his performance here is pretty good (still prefer Liam’s though) - Ken’s alright though need to hear more - Liking Shinjiro’s more than expected (Still miss OG though) - I’m fine with Aigis though I miss her more robotic ness in her OG voice. - Mitsuru, Junpei, Fuuka are the ones I love the most
Ken wanted to kill him for revenge. Later he learns that Shinji was gonna die anyway so his revenge is meaningless, then Shinji dies saving him. That's alot of conflicting emotions. Ken is just a kid he doesn't know how to deal with all the pent up hatred regret etc. I'm not just talking about the revenge either, Shinji is the only person who can provide Ken closure. Whether it be through revenge or forgiveness, now Ken has nothing to do with his emotions. His purpose for living has been robbed from him, in more ways then one. Reducing it down to "bipolar" is a bit reductionist.
Imagine calling a elementary school kid who had mixed up emotions between anger, hate, regret, confusion, fear, stress, and sadness as "bipolar" because he cried and grieved for a man he wanted to kill. The same man who died in front of this kid, sacrificing his own life to protect him when he lost his sole purpose either way and (almost) gave up on living
Firstly no it was Takaya who got him killed, secondly he was already dying, even if takaya did nothing he probably wouldn’t live to see the end of the year, thirdly ken’s hamster is named Hamburger which I think that alone is enough proof that he’s cool

It's been so long since I played 3 FES and I got to this part yesterday. I was like, "Oh thank god it didn't pull--OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"
OH MY GOSH NOOOOOOOOO 😭
SHINJIIIIIIII I CANT TAKE THIS I’m so frustrated
HOLY SHIT

Koromaru grieving Shinji caught me TOTALLY off-guard
Koro howling as Ken screams is too sad. Doggo needs pets and hugs.

Koro is good doggo.
@@mystery8820 I did say Koromaru us based on Hachiko from Japan, so it's natural.
I laughed out loud at this scene. Out of the blue That dog is so random 😂😂😂
8:06 My man pulled out the F word on Takaya in front of Amada (I kinda want Amada to say the F word now)
Ryuji really to be distributing the the F word pass between games lmao.
Imagine Ken going “ILL FUCKING KILL YOU” to Takaya
“I WANT YOU FUCKING DEAD MOTHERFUCKER” - Ken Amada
Most badass "STFU" in history damn
I spit laughing when he said that lol
9:33 WAS THAT A NUT SHOT!?
Nah that's FOUL

More than 15 years and... it still hurts... man
14:31 Joker how dare you say that!?
And Mishima too! Damn him.
Lmaoo Joker probably was an elementary in p3
I love how the entire P5 cast are unimportant characters.
17:53, damn the pain man….
even after knowing what happens because of the original game, i still cried, damn its so sad, this remake is a gem
I was fucking weeping, crying and shaking on the ground. They did this scene true justice in the remake, the most heartbreaking its ever been.

17:53 Kaggy/Alejandro delivered that crying line really well…😢
Giving Koromaru a part in this scene absolutely wrecked me, that wasn't even in the movie version😢
When Ken screamed after Shinji's death, I got Crisis Core flashbacks
The PSP Crisis Core? Hey, I think it's better than 'Tidus' scream. Plus it works since he's a kid.
@@MariusBoss11458 I meant Reunion - Cloud's VA put more effort into the scream in that version. Steve Burton was unable to yell, hence why they recorded Tidus' VA in vanilla Crisis Core
12:38
U R MY SPECIAL
Is that kid bipolar? He wanted to kill Shinji just 2 minutes ago. Where all THIS came from?
@@theProClaimer wdym he is just a kid. It is normal for him to feel like that.
@@theProClaimerI mean, Shinji did end up saving him, so I can understand why Ken's opinion changed.
That was very well animated and voiced
Well shit. I've played p3 enough times that at some point I stopped crying at this part but Reload brought back the tears
Damn that reinstatement letter scene
Today marks the 15th anniversary of the death of Shinjiro Aragaki, as the game took place in 2009.
22:59 this hits different 😢
Ah, F word, music to my ears
That thing hit me again.....
15 years is too long man ❤️🩹RIP Shinji ❤️🩹
12:08 "Aki look after him"
"I will"
proceeds to leave suicidal boy alone
Ryujis F bomb (as good as it was) can’t compete with shinjis
Works better because of context and who it was directed to, as well. Takaya was a slimeball for that, and breaking Ken's spirit earlier.
Today’s 10/4. Never ask a Persona fan what happens on 10/4
I never realized this until now, after seeing it in reload, but Ken's story is the one that feels the most like the origin story for the main protagonist of an RPG. If he becomes a college roommate and a future persona installment I will go nuts (in a good way).
Rest in peace Shinji
for me it still just feels weird listening to most of the new voices
I'm definitely not feeling Yukari, Everyone else is fine but Shinjiro, Mitsuru, Junpei, and Fuuka so far are the best.
It's weird lol, P3 OG voice cast is very distinct, for better and for worse. I overall like the New Cast, even if I prefer Liam O'Brien and Michelle Ruff's takes on their respective characters.
You gotta admit Akihito’s new VA did that part really well.
My opinion now that I’ve seen more scenes:
- Still mixed with Yukari’s
- Been warming up to Akihiko and his performance here is pretty good (still prefer Liam’s though)
- Ken’s alright though need to hear more
- Liking Shinjiro’s more than expected (Still miss OG though)
- I’m fine with Aigis though I miss her more robotic ness in her OG voice.
- Mitsuru, Junpei, Fuuka are the ones I love the most
I mean if you really don't like it, the Japanese voice actors are still there.
DAMNIT WHY! Why Koro-Chan. Now I cant help but sob!
rawest "fuck"
diosito me lo tenga en su manto rest in rip miamor.....:((((((((((((((((((((((((((((

@@ribb0nzz WHAT THE SHIT!!!!!!!!!
Is there no way shinjiro can be saved? I was hoping it would be different in this version. 😫😭
Only in femc can save him by romancing him
@@nekogamer2508 You don't need to romance him to save him. You just need to max out his SL.
10/4 is actually my birthday and I game I wanted to send it with Yuko but instead I had to fight a Boss 💀
Happy birthday 😂
Why that kid cares about Shinji? THAT MUCH 12:50 He wanted to kill him 2 minutes ago. Is he bipolar?

Screw Ken he got my boy killed
Shinjiro got his own ass up and jumped in front of that bullet. Skill issue, not Ken's fault
Media illiteracy at its finest
Imagine being this braindead
