LOL What is this I don't even...
Maybe now P3 fans will shut up and understand that P3 was never neglected to begin with. P1 and P2, on the other hand...

If it going to be a movie, it should be the Answer arc.

P3F is one of my top 3 all-time favorite games, but I have very low expectations for this.

Definitely. P4 the animation was a rushed mess, and it was to cours long. This will NOT work.

Wait a minute.
They'll probably change Minato's name and to make things worse Ishida will be his VA. Ugh.

The name change probably happen since the manga is not official, curious to see what name Atlus will choose.
I had never heard the jap ver. of P3, So Ishida is his VA hmmm...
Time to dig JP P3 game & drama CDs.

PS: Deleted the false name dammit

How could you fit almost 1 year of story in a 1-2 hour movie?

Maybe they'll just animate a certain part of the game. I'd love for it to be like the Drama CDs -> side stories somewhere during the main plot timeframe.

Personally, I'm really HYPED.
And I have my hopes up for a full TV series if the movie proves to be successful!

I hope they change the animation studio and the bloody director.

It can be done. They have to cut a lot of fluff, a lot of plot points, every SLink, but it can be done. But PLEASE put some competent people on it this time!

By cutting out every bit of character development, focusing only on certain bits of the main plot and the MCxYukari relationship (because you know they will), and other such horrible ideas.

Yeah, this is going to be a disaster. Oh well.

This'll probably go Unlimited Blade Works route, meaning they'll only animate the biggest scenes and it'll make no sense to anyone who hasn't played the game.

OH GOD YESSS.....

well...fuck. They will rape another awesome franchise it seems.

Why could we NOT get a series of 5 or 6 movies, ala KNK?....

Movie adaptations of games generally suck. I don't have high hopes for this...

T.v. would have been way better.

Agreed, I would've loved to have seen a P3 TV anime series rather than a movie.

I don't care how much this sucks, I will love the fuck out of it just for Aegis.
But if they change Minato's name I will cry.

If they were to make it, it would have to be at least 3 hours in order to make it work. If it's only 90-120 minutes, it's not going to be as faithful to the source material.

I'm not that worried about faithfulness, because P4 was really faithful but was a major trainwreck. I just wanted it to work as a movie but it will probably be as lame as UBW.

Persona 3 in one movie? I'd say.. wtf, even the story isn't as twisted as Persona 4 but the story is pretty long, and it consists of two parts: The Journey and The Answer.

It will be suck if the movie only covers The Journey because the revelation of The Journey's ending is in The Answer, which surely will make u dry in tears

Hate to burst bubbles, but they more than likely will change the protagonist's name. He really doesn't have an "official" name- Atlus isn't associated with the manga, which is why they named the P4 protagonist Yu instead of Souji.

They could at least choose a nice name, because Yu Narukami is one of the lamest names ever. I still call him MC just because I scorn this name.

According to viewers of the initial theatrical airing of PERSONA4 the Animation -the Factor of Hope-, which began today, June 9, 2012, there was an announcement for an animation movie adaptation of Persona 3 made at the end of the movie.

Source: tweets by viewers, explained in English on Crunchyroll


That's good, but a tv adaptation would be better...
Still I'll enjoy seeing P3's characters animated.
