This might have the first best episode and worst second half of all time.

OF ALL TIME!

Your thoughts on A-1 doing this?

Well A-1 can deliver if they believe the project is worth it, and I'm sure Persona 4 Golden will do good in terms of sales, so I'm happy.
They should also have enough SAO and Uta Pri money to make this show fabulous.

i read that this is a remake with additional character so i guess i will watch this one because i have not seen the last tv series of persona 4

and A-1 is not that bad in terms of producing quality animation, their animated action scenes are far better than lets say WhiteFox studio anyway

I was hoping the people who did Spring of Birth would do this.

But apparently this will just be A-1's next generic action remake.

Yeah, I heard that the P3 1st movie was pretty good. Kinda disappointed here, but maybe A-1 has gotten better a bit, I hope.

Servant x Service and ano hana were amazing.

A-1 only sucks at action shows that aren't battle shounen.

True that, most of their SoL are pretty good. Seeing the trailer, the art is already way better than the original P4 anime. Maybe they can do it with enough budget after all.

The art is exactly like the art from the cut scenes in the game.

Seems a lot of people don't know that persona itself has anime cutscenes in the game.

Haha, really? I haven't play any Persona games so I wouldn't know. Let's just hope it stays that way all the way to the end then.

I don't mind A-1 doing this, I like them, most of the time. Whats more bothering me that again, Seiji Kishi directing adaption of a game, all the anime based on games that he directed ended up really bad, especially Dangenronpa which I really liked as a game and the anime didn't even get close to what the game was... He should just back to directing Romeo Tanaka's novels, that's the only thing he good at.

But Hamatora wasn't based on a game, I didn't say he is a bad director generally, just that games and his direction don't go well.

Wait, didn't the one who made all the anime cutscenes of the original game also A-1 Pictures?

Dunno about the Golden version though ('cause I don't fucking have vita!).

Not sure, but the new art style and music look pretty good.

Gotta say, people who tend to like P4 anime seem to not be people who played P4. I didn't bother watching the anime because they supposedly didnt animate much other than the personal shit.

There needs to be more persona battles and shit in this one.

Atleast it'll have good animation for a while. AIC ASTA was just plain awful, there wasn't a single good looking episode.

A-1 did P4's anime cutscenes, as well as Trinity Soul, so they at least have some experience with the licence.

A-1 used to be a pretty good studio but in recent years they are involved in a failure after failure. Not to mention overusing kyoani's moeblob style. At this point I'd rather have even Brains Base make this series than A-1. They probably already sunk to J.C.S level.

Seriously? people are complaining about A-1 pictures doing this anime? I could somewhat understand if Deen were the studio animating this, but A-1 pictures of all studios? they are one of the best anime studios out there in terms of animation quality.

Honestly what's next are people going to say Kyoani's animation sucks -.-.

I think A-1 could make this work. It's not like every anime they've made in the past has sucked.

Oh but it will have the same director. That's not good.

A-1 is uneven because of hectic schedules and poor outsourcing. The first episode is usually very good, but quality can be awful at times (even as soon as Ep. 2 if they've outsourced it to a third-rate studio as in the case of this season's Nanana's Buried Treasure).

Poorly produced episodes are uniformly glossed to a shine, but you can't hide unskilled work and cut corners. While the studio may have emphasized quality early on, they've since become a large scale workhorse for Aniplex (which is always a risk when a studio's activities are aligned to a publisher's demand for speedy delivery).

Unfortunately it's trendy to hate of A-1 at the moment because of a slew of complete nonsense reasons.

I prefer to wait the show finish and then judge it's quality.
A-1 can do good anime and I trust them. (I liked SAO, Ano Hana, Servant x Service and others.)
Well, let's hope everything turns out awesome.

Guys, please note that A-1 did Uchuu Kyoudai (also Tsuritama). Idk. I like them overall, even if there's -cough-accursed-cough- SAO and the pretty questionable Utapri.

Personally i think it would be fine without persona battles because this animation shows what didn't happened in the animation. Golden is a game that shows a new character which is Marie, so far the animation is going great. You know that some are cutscenes from the game but there art looks decent and the sound is good. i trust that A-1 pictures is going to do a good job with this.

This isn't even a remake, it's more like they treated P4 as the complete game and then are treating P4GA as new game+ where they add the Marie scenes. So I'd say it's more of an extended edition of sorts. So far they're doing a great job since it's pretty close to the PS Vita game.

A-1 is doing fine. If this was treated like the original Anime then yes the pacing is terrible but like the user above said, this is more of New game+ with marie scene and any new event/scene form the golden.

I hold high expectations for them. They can do great and probably even better when they have the budget for it.
