I really, really, really doubt Mara will appear. And I didn't even fuse him in Persona and anything (the only time I saw him in SMT was when I defeated him in Nocturne), so I don't care that much for 'him'. I'm all for Cu Chulainn, though.



I only fused him in P3 and P3P - good severe fire damage user, along with physical, well for the moves I gave him... It's more than likely Cu Culiann is the one, since he was used more in other games than the other 3, in Digital Devil Sega, Nocturne, Devil Survivor, and Devil Summoner - from what I've seen/played, not sure about other SMT games, but more than likely he was used in almost all and he is the most popular Tower persona that can be easily fused.

Dear god, I nearly cried when Burn My Dread, When the Moon's Reaching Out Stars, P3 fes, and Mass Destruction came on.

Too bad there was no Want to be Close reincarnation.

And Chie's too perfect <3.

OH, and FINALLY we're getting to my
Naoto starting next episode. Can't wait.

From PS2 onwards, I think Cu Chulainn was present in every SMT game (not only that but he was quite usefu;, he was always in my group until the end and was cool as hell)

So I've checked and yeah, you're right. He was also in Demikids, apparently. Agreed, very useful, I used him for P3,P3FES,P4, Devil Survivor and Nocturne, all the time. Also overused Tam Lin in P4, lol.

Laughed sooo hard on "drunk" Narukami. He's THE man.

One of the best episodes, so far. Funny how I like the story irrelevant episodes way more.

That was a great episode. A lot of P3 references, Aika comming back out of nowhere. Also anyone noticed Kenji in the Ramen shop? If anyone forgot him:

Is the kid which was saved by Chie is just a random boy or was he actually in any of the games?

Oh Yu. Especially when he started unbuttoning his shirt and 'being the king'. I lawled. The next episode is Naoto's, it seems and I can't wait for that one. I've been waiting since s/he showed up.

I didn't think anything could have topped the last episode, until I watched this one.

Yu just loves to prove how to be a good main character.

Oh my god this show just keeps on getting better and better. I was close to tears from laughing so hard in the club scene. Drunk Yu is an absolute riot.

Comedy aside, I'm glad we're getting back to the main plot next episode. These last three episodes of filler have been a lot of fun, but it'd start to drag if they continued any longer.

Persona has brought alot of people into a previously "obscure" franchise though. Its a bit of a shame thinking Persona = ATLUS yeah, but I find a good portion of the people (myself included) who started with P3/4 make an effort to try the other SMT and ATLUS games at least. I became a fan that way. Its just a bit harder to find some of the other games T_T.

Im just glad the fanbase is getting bigger. Gives ATLUS the backing they need to keep going :D.

You have a very different experience than mine, since what I see the most is people longing for P5 and whenever a SMT (and I mean Nocturne-like) is mentioned, they all go like: Screw them, we want P5, that's the only game ATLUS has that is worth it!!!!!!!!!!

[Not only that but whenever I mention I prefer Nocturne or DDS over P4 I am almost killed.]

I have no idea why they would kill you for that. Story side of things. Digital Devil Saga and Nocturne are far superior than Persona 4's. Also may I say, much darker and meaningful.

Even before the Animation was announced P5 was what was most rumored to come after Catherine. After they announced the P4 Anime they basically made 2 P4 game announcement and P5. Yeah, seems to me like their minds are currently focused on persona atm. For better or for worse it's the more mainstream of their series.

even though it doesn't really matter and he wasn't in the Persona 4 game would had been nice if Vince from Catherine made a appearance in the background of club since he was in the PS3 psp remake would had made my day XD.

Ep13: Nanako is so lovely.
Ep14: Yuu gained 5 more persona to use, and a lot more possibility to fuse up even stronger ones.
Ep15: Naoto becomes more than just a recurrent character, Chie social link level up = even more powerful persona for Yuu.

There's a lot going in the "background" if you know what's happening. I'm tired of another "where did he get all those persona from?????" type of question like back when ep12 aired.

Best episode so far, Chie getting a scene for herself with Narukami :D And Narukami acting like a boss at the club, so hilarious. I am still only 40 hours into P3P, first persona game I have played and its awesome but the dub is not so good. But nice that they go to the city where persona 3 took place.

I know that. It's just that it's impossible to mention something like "I'm waiting for a new SMT for PS3/Wiii/360/whatever that isn't DS or PSP". Not only that but just like I mentioned, depending on your preferences people kill you. Well, whatever XD

But as for being more mainstream, I think Persona became more mainstream from P3 on. After all, SMT is a kinda difficult series to get into; Persona made things easier.

It was great hearing "Burn My Dread" in this episode, as well as the other P3 songs.
I loved the king's game in the game, and I love it as well in this episode.

Yeah, but I was more or less talking about quality in story not popularity. Sure, Persona is more mainstream and I for one really enjoyed Persona 3 the most from the franchise, but official ShinMegamiTensei games are better when it comes to actual story and atmosphere - also, really fucks with your thoughts.

So, attacking a person for liking Nocturne or DDS over Persona is extremely biased and stupid. Not that it's wrong to like Persona over other SMT games...

I just got out of the hospital, so I haven't had a chance to see this until now. That and being unable to get my episode through the usual 'sources'.:(

SO MANY PERSONA 3 REFERENCES. HOLY CRAP. I mean EVERYTHING. Every song, every cameo, every event - all made it in. The only thing missing was the original S.E.E.S. Investigation team. I'm speechless right now.

Best episode of the year, everything was put together so well. They'll be hard pressed to top this episode the rest of the way, considering what happens next (although the School Festival is still upcoming).

So, did Yuu max his S.Link with Chie? YuuXChie a canon couple in the King's Game? YESSSSSSS THIS MEANS RISE IS MINE ALL MINE BWAHAHAHAHAHA.

So uh, whew. Score for this episode + 10% for drunk!Yuu's pimpassery, drunk!Yukiko and drunk!Rise awesomeness = 110% here! 110/10 if I may. Consider my brain fried from all the incredibleness of it all. @:&

I need to watch it again, because an episode like that requires two viewings to fully process what I've just seen.

They played the P3 OP, the P3 remixed OP, I think like 3 town BGM's (if not more variations now and again), the Battle BGM, and I think Strega's too as well as 1 or 2 Full Moon operations BGM's. A fair lot of Persona 3 music.
