That's pretty cool. I'm curious about how they will do shadow fights o-o <img src="http://myanimelist.net/signature/UltimaZeta.png" /> "In our own lives, we're not the readers. We're the writers. We're able to...change the ending, aren't we?" - Gintoki Sakata |

Persona 4 stage play with Baba Toru playing the protagonist. Nothing else in the world matters now. |

It seems Persona 4 has got a tremendous popularity recently, first the anime adaptation, then remakes for PS3 and Vita, and now live shows? I don't really care since new soundtrack is always welcome anyway (especially if from Shoji). |

inb4 Persona 4 fandom. Oh wait... it seems I'm already too late. What has this world come to. If you take anything on the internet seriously, you're doing it wrong. - Ignorance is not bliss; ignorance is getting laughed at by those of higher intelligence than you.       |

I'm wondering what train of thought led to a stage play of Persona 4. Hopefully it was a good one. |

Not a single Japanese can come close to Yosuke's epicness. |

I don't really get what's so fantastic about Persona 4. I've seen up to episode 3 and I have to say that I don't really mind if I continue or not. I don't get why there's such a big fandom for it, but maybe it's because the anime's bad and the game is good, I don't know.  |

^First of all, the game is way better. Call it irony, but its pace is way slower than the tv series'. Second, such a big fandom? On what are you basing this? Because as far as games are concerned, it does indeed have a faithful fandom but it is not as big as you claim it is. And if you're talking about the tv series, it received major hype, but it is not like it has such a big fandom. Another thing: there are many times in which something isn't fantastic but it has a big fandom. And in the end, what is fantastic anyways? Well, what I mean is, try to think of the product as a whole before talking about big fandom and things like that. |
