THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
The guy wearing the ring cousin girl gave and saw them finally.

The suspect admitting what he has done, and didn't know that they experienced shadows. Him releasing red thing and attracting shadows.

The fight. Being controlled and releasing of new personas. Then saving of cousin girl. Defeating the shadows.

Everyone's worried of the cousin girl, who is unconcious, including detective "guy", who is blaming herself. Cute blushing face for detective "guy". Fortunately, the cousin girl is back to conscious now.

There's change to the world, like when the glasses for that world is seeing in this world.

Kuma doesn't want to go back even though the case is solved, and everyone's welcoming him to stay.

Christmas time (No ED). Then cousin girl's condition getting worse? The guy (Narukami)'s very desperate, she died before father comes. :(

More fight next ep.? And a possibility that Kuma cannot say?

TAM LIN! OH YES! Wait holdup, stop everything, Rise got hit, shouldn't she have fainted with her weak stats? lmfao

Epic catching of Nanako. Kohryuu coming out totally looked like something out of Dragonball Z, quick someone play "Rock the Dragon" for that scene please! lol.

Fortune maxed out.

Towns gone fucking nuts with all this heavy fog. Apparently everyone can see clearly with the glasses on, the fog leaking from the "other side"?

I love how Rise just magically starts sliding next to Narukami lol.

Nanako just past away this episode. Best episode to date. 5/5.

Next scent: "In Order To Find The Truth" - Gonna be another promising episode, so excited - I expected these last few episodes to really pull through and so far, i'm satisfied..

New Personas Used:
Saturnus
Kohryuu
Atropos
Tam Lin
Sraosha

Best part was Teamwork, was actually shown

And LAWL, meant Atropos, not Lachesis. Dunno how I get the two confused.

Must have been either Helel then,when Yu grabbed the Justice arcana? Stream was shitty but I know I saw horns - so I went with Lucifer as I'm a stupid fangirl, lol. Did you watch in clear quality? Who was it?

Edit: Saw clear quality was Sraosha - was WAAAY off lol

Agreed. Kinda sounds like Nocturne BGM to me, which is awesome.

Just notice all Narukami needs now is to max out 1 more point of Knowledge and he's done with his stats..

Hmm, I know this sounds kinda dickish of me, but please take that spoiler down. There will be some people who don't know about this part of the story. As Tsubasa said, use only material from this episode - some people who have already seen it might think that spoiler relates to 22 as a result.

Aside from that tiny nitpick...This episode was awesome, they've really pulled through these last few. It baffles me that they can do both comedy and plot well, although I prefer the serious side of things because it's kinda what the game is about (murder mystery). It's not that the style has gotten better, but I think because there are more characters and personas it enriches the material.

One of the best episodes yet - on par with 21: 5/5

Great episode, I knew it was coming but I still bawled. Also I really liked the part when yu went to go catch nanako and the orchestral version of the new opening song for persona 4 the golden (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B52vkgPLPIU&feature=player_embedded)

Next week brosuke link will likely be maxed out I think.

I don't think it needs to be taken down, since (spoiler for those who haven't played the game)

Even though it was only a little bit i get to hear the heaven song in the beginning.

man the fight was awesome all these persona summons, even though he summoned them against his will to kill his friends but no problem. and they save nanako

before she dies :( i totally remember that in the game.....i also remember my sister being really happy when she died in the game because she finds nanako annoying...my sister doesnt have a heart.

as for future battle i really want to see either trumpter or yoshitsune those 2 are my favourite and also hopefully we get to see the main cast get the max out persona

Indeed, I agree entirely. It's just that I've seen people getting spoilered heavily by going around forums like these. Chalk it down to my personal experience too. Anyway, thanks for amending your post.

Eagerly awaiting episode 23!

A little rushed (one month in a single episode) but really a great episode.
I like how they used new Persona from the game, too less screentime for Beelzebub. Atropos was great.
Maybe one of the best episodes and silent ending, no final theme. :(
5/5 for me.

Also the animation this time was done right, excellent 'boss' fight.

Yuu's voice actor does a really good job at expressing when he is in emotional pain or suffering.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! NANAKO!! Okay time to kick "HIS" ass!! I am sick of seeing his fugly ass smile.


I pick up on things that you would only understand if you played the game. Like the reason he can summon a certain persona was becuase he bonded with somebody of that arcana outside the TV. Like recently he summoned that huge dragon becuase he maxed out Doujima's social link by promising to protect Nanako.

Using Hama on a boss and winning? Cheater. xP

...I feel it's necessary for me to make a joke, because I get upset at this part of the game every time, and I'm no less upset with the anime's version.

The battle was awesome though. I hope they'll be able to maintain (or exceed!) this level of greatness right until the end.
If any of my posts seem odd, it's probably because I'm tired. Sorry. I have sleeping issues.

It looked like Yuu used a Mahamoan to get rid of the surrounding shadows at the end of the battle. Considering Yuu used Kohryu which is the max Hierophant summon, the persona at the end was probably Sraosha which he got after maxing Justice.

Erm...the one that appeared was: Sraosha. Here's more info:
http://megamitensei.wikia.com/wiki/Sraosha

But most people probably would have realized the difference by the time I post this.

As for the next episode...I really hope they keep Nanako alive somehow (life support?). Also...wasn't Adachi's claim about Konishi near the end a lie? Sounds like a load of crap. I could be wrong though.

From what i Understand Nanako's dead.. dead dead.. Breaks my heart :(

Never played the game so I don't know the different endings that there are.

I love nanako :(( Sooo sad!

Anyway great episode, I'm just scared to see nanako's dads reaction and everyone else..

I would assume next episode would be about Yu grieving about the lost of his 'little sister'

All those Personae in this episode! Haha, I find it funny that I just fused Kohryu in the game today and Yu summons it in this episode too. xD And damn, I knew that was Tam Lin! I just fused him away too =/ *was my favorite Persona*

Yu was so emotional this episode...... made me cry when Nanako died >.< Now I'm going to sulk until I watch the next episode and find out which direction the anime is going to take......

Of all people Nanako had to die, perhaps it was true that the delivery man was a savor.
Perhaps if you don't meet your shadow you'll die?
I really want to know what's going on, I need to see the next ep but waiting a week sucks.
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page.
