Anime Relations: Persona 4 the Animation, Persona 3 the Movie 1: Spring of Birth, Persona 5 the Animation

I played Persona 3, 4, and 5, and the games are enjoyable and good despite their flaws. However I despise the fans for two reasons:

1. They shit on characters who committed the crime of not behaving like perfect human beings. Junpei, Yukari, Ken, Yosuke, Morgana, and Mishima are treated like satan incarnate for daring not to be perfect (Yosuke especially). Yosuke had a few off hand scenes and apparently it makes him the lowest of the low. He can be accidently be insensitive at times, but in the end he's just a teenager. Yosuke took in Teddie with no strings attached when he had nowhere to go and he even payed for his clothes. He's the one who formed the Investigation team and went out of his way to search out the cause behind Saki's death, a person he loved despite his feelings being unrequited. A truly shitty person wouldn't do such a thing. Junpei, like Yosuke, is a dumb teenager. Yes, he desperately wants to be a cool hero but the events of the game makes him change and grow as a person. In fact, I prefer him over Ryuji, who was good in the first arc but was ultimately underdeveloped (just like the main cast of P5 sadly). Ken is a grieving kid who lost his mother. He's not a evil shithead just because Shinji got killed. First of all, Shinji's days was numbered. Secondly, he chose to sacrifice himself to save Ken. And lastly, IT WAS ALL REVOLVER JESUS'S FAULT, HE WAS AIMING TO KILL KEN BUT KILLED SHINJIRO INSTEAD, WHY ARE YOU BLAMING A FUCKING KID FFS. Yukari isn't a bitch just because she's not a perfect uwu cute waifu. And she lost a teammate and a lover, of course she would grieve. Morgana hate makes a bit more sense than the others (Ann simping can understandably be embarrassing to cringy to watch). But then there's the Okumura arc. I understand that Haru's arc was hurt from it, but she too was doomed to stop developing after her introduction arc and was introduced slightly too late, but I digress. However, he was having an existential crisis and was starting to doubt his usefulness after Makoto and Futaba come into the picture, which can hurt like a bitch mentally. Sure, he said some off hand comments to Ryuji, but Ryuji's retort was his breaking point. And lastly, Mishima. A student who was among Kamoshida's victims who eventually supports The Phantom Thieves. However, his fans despise him for daring to be a socially awkward and nerdy boy, a type of character weebs call incel, soyboy, cringe, future school shooter, virgin, loser, you name it. However, they sure loooooooooove that trope when it's applied to a cute, gimmicky waifu (Hello, Futaba!). Blaming him for Joker becoming a social outcast at school is ridiculous, since Kamoshida blackmailed him into revealing his student record. Once again, persona fans blame the victim for something the villain did, how classy.

2. They keep discussing the same discourse over and over and over and over and OVER AGAIN, FIND A NEW TOPIC RELATED TO THE GAMES TO TALK ABOUT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD. Persona 4 gets the worst of this. Trans naoto, Gay Kanji, Homophobe/gay Yosuke, P4 problematic, Hashino sexist and transphobic, that beach scene in Persona 3, Morgana bad, Teddie bad, P5's okama scenes bad, you name it. I'm sure I forgot some at the moment of typing this, but in the end, it just pollutes discussion and is inane and repetitive on top of it. On top of that, these games are long, especially Persona 5 with Royal of top of it (the average playtime for P5 is over 100 hours long). There's lot of content to discuss about! P3 came out in 2006, P4 in 2008, and P5 in 2016. But of course, persona fans being persona fans, will rather discuss the same controversial and boring scenes for the rest of time instead of like, anything else. Every now and then is fine, but all the time? That's literal insanity I'm talking about.

Persona games good, Persona fans bad, the end.

Holy fuck, this new design is straight up garbage. First, the front review pages now have 3 reviews at the top. Second, instead of restoring the not helpful button, they decided to add stupid ass emojis (really?). Third, you have to press the “read more” button to see their overall score of the anime. Speaking of which, where’s the score for each category? Back on my second point, we could’ve have both the helpful and not helpful button together, but nah, lets add a bunch of stupid emojis for no particular reasons. In other words, whoever redesigned this system has shit for brains!
