I'll give 8 for the art and 6.5 for the story. Not really shocking but decent for me.

RESTORED ENDING CONFIRMED WOOHOOOooooOOO

And lol that joke site. It was a great site with great layout until everything ends and..........
HIBIKI ALWAYS GETS A HUG
But wow, Nitta doesnt ask Hibiki for a date. But nice back-up plan of Hibiki, calling Nitta and let them walk on their own. Everyone's being cute no? Jungo and Airi lksjhclkdhckdh

YAMATO. DO YOU REMEMBER HIBIKI. I suppose he remembers anything everything along with Hibiki but he's just good at hiding it

And the ending scene is full of ppl again ayeyeye

WHY DOES HIBIKI CRY
THIS ENDING YOU CHOSE YOURSELF AND YOU CRY come on dear

And I think the ending would've been good if everything happened like in the game. AND OH THAT ALCOR ENDING

Autumn in Japan if I'm not mistaken is 8 August-6 November, so it'll be released around those times (hopefully August).

Yeah, about that. How did Hibiki know that fusing those specific Demons with one another in that order would result in Lucifer?

Oh, that's right, bad writing.


just another inconsistency.

@Hybridbloodszak

my main problem..aside from the bad writing and plot holes and poor character development was the the all the deaths had no meaning...no weight ! i didnt feel bad for all the ppl that got killed off ..it wasnt even sad.

i really bawled my eyes out for example:
if u seen it u probably know what im talking about..my english isnt good enough to describe it better :)



Yeah I understand the death thing. That's why I thought that making the anime longer would give it more time to develop it's characters. That's the problem with one cour anime, they're too short. They can be amazing and develop characters really well if done properly (like AnoHana) but for shows like DeSu2 with too much plot they need more than 13 episodes.

I think I'll probably change my score since I was really caught up at the moment. 7/10

I'm kind of disappointed that we didn't get to see Polaris. The Asspulls in this were pretty funny. I mean Hibiki being saved and the demon fusion. I wonder why didn't Yamamoto use the fusion of during the trials. This was a decent ending.

Hahaha I was right!!! I knew he would summon Lucifer since Lu is the strongest demon in the game. After all he maxed out friendship with Alcor thus unlocking Lucifer for summoning. They used his angel form (Helel) instead of the demonic form, but it's okay, he's handsome!

Overall, ending is predictable, they changed so many things from the game, rushed it freaking fast, and kill people off for no reason but still enjoyable because of the OP & ED and the insert song. I'll give this adaption...probably 5-6/10

Now wait for persona 3 the movie!!!

I agree.
I know it was suppose to be a serious fight scene but as soon as Hibiki got the other demons I was laughing throughout the enitre battle.
YAMATO!!!!
HIBIKI!!!!
Lmao I didnt like seeing Yamato so worked up...he was suppose to be the always cool character. Everything after the fight was really nice. Seeing everyone again and Yamato's reaction at the end was the best.

Sigh... I actually hoped the fight between Hibiki and Yamatato would be awesome. I got a boring and repetitive conversation with a demon hug at the end. The only good thing about the first part of the episode was the demon fusion, which was introduced way too late btw. We didn't even get to see Polaris.
The second part was better. But now that I think about it, the anime didn't even show the backgrounds for most of the characters. As far as I remember, it was never said that Keita wanted to be a famous boxer in the future, which makes his little 'happy ending scene' at the end kinda pointless. At least we do know that he is happy now, right?

Overvall, it was a mediocre adaption of an awesome game.

Poor Hibiki, why is he so happy? Seems like he could have a great world and sacrificed everything to leave humans a chance.
Not my favorite ending, but it was well done. At least for who knows Shin Megami Tensei it makes sense.

Lucifer vs Satan, that was a good and short battle, but my favorite is still the angel Metatron, this time with a dark skin.
I don't know about grade should I give to Desu2 animation, I'll think it a bit.

8/10 I liked this show I guess it because of the fact that I haven't played the game nor own a 3DS.

The final battle was boring until the end when his friend's demons were transferred. I guess I was hoping for more action than what I got in the end. The conclusion after the battle was satisfying, but typical happy ending.

Well I think this show had some good themes and the art and sound was really good, and there were a few exciting moments, but mostly everything was just so predictable and cheesy and it gets very tiresome after a while. The Hibiki-Yamato fight was terrible, especially the whole "a friend's demon has arrived" bullshit, I laughed at how crappy this show is when that happened. You could see what was coming a mile off. Hibiki would defeat him, and then everything would return to how it was, except there would be no demons.
It would've been interesting to see Yamato's world though. I was rooting for him throughout the show even though I knew he would eventually lose.
I suppose this would appeal to a younger audience though, I can imagine I'd enjoy this show if I was a kid.
Still, I feel like I'm being too generous giving this a 5/10.

Except for the fact that Lucifer looks totally different from Helel. In Persona 3, there are two demons named Lucifer and Helel. Helel was before he fell and Lucifer was after he fail so translation screw-up again, technically.

I see they kept demon fusion, and demon transferring to the protagonist features from the game...but with his friends all dead to send them, a little late to the party, no? Or does Polaris's domain just have bad reception, I don't know.

It seems they threw out all the demon fusion recipes since practically none of them work in the games, using maybe only one of the mentioned demons in the anime for each demon. For example, Yamato used Nebiros and Zao gongen together to make Satan, but it's impossible in the game to use those two together. Not to mention Hibiki had a hack fest with his rule-breaker fusion willy nilly...way to disrespect the source material creators; from when you first took on this adaption.

And fansubbers...Jack Frost!? They did it again, goddammit! I thought they would have rectified their mistake by now.

Ending: Only Hibiki and Yamato remember, because only those two made it to Polaris's domain? That's the only reason I can think of. Hibiki is still too emo. Could have done without the breakdown on his knees after seeing Yamato alive and well.

Ending was as I thought it'd be. Too bad no Polaris fight...but with all his friends dead, it'd be pointless. If I never played the game, or played it after watching the anime, I'm sure I'd enjoy it a lot more. But since I didn't, needless to say my opinion of the show was overall meh. I think they would have done well to stretch out the series to at least double the number of episodes, so around 24+ to flush out character development that they scrapped here, if they wanted to do a proper adaption, which they don't because they just care about ratings, and disc sales.

I don't see why everyone is all up in arms about Alcor at the end. He only said humanity didn't need him anymore, it's not like he's dead (anymore)...he could of just returned to being an overseer of humanity instead of the one lending a hand or meddling in human affairs.

Still waiting on Devil Survivor Overclocked adaption, and Persona 1-3, done properly unlike this poorly written show...although I'm not holding my breath, since their upper brass seem to be all idiots hellbent on letting numbers and money steer good stories into the ground.

Final thoughts: 7/10, only because it was Devil Survivor 2, and nothing more. if it were any other title I didn't care about, it'd be 1/10 for Appalling.

...Persona 3 Anime did it better. Although still not as good as the game.

The series started ok. But 13 episodes was not enough. I don't get how people think that like in a 9 hour game (I haven't played the game and just giving an example).

Also the ending was kind of gay.

At least they should have done a big colission between Lucifer and Satan. But no, there was nothing. Just a ''happy hug'' and the annoying POWER OF FRIENDSHIP.

I thought it was going to be a very enjoyable series but it really dissapointed me.

Well I give it 5/10

I love it's music, animation and somehow I love the character of Hibiki and Ureu Mono. But I thought it would be enjoyable but it was a let down.

This was totally a predictable ending, but I liked it. It was still sort of disappointing, but this type of anime rarely has an ending that suits my taste. It felt like allot of the epicness was drained away by the ending, though it wasn't as bad as something else I had read before so I'm happy. Still, I liked the anime, but the ending felt a little rushed, especially Yamato and Hibiki's battle.

I think this one, like Persona 4 The Animation, is more of a story for the fans of the games. I do feel like it should've been a longer series as much was rushed at the end. It was still good though.
