| I love them all but if I have to chose one it would be Akira for sure it was fun playing him. |

| 4 > 5 >>> 3 Coincidentally, the same is true for the games themselves. |
 This glorious signature image was created by @Mayumi! I am the Arbiter of Absolute Truth, and here is my wisdom: "Anime was always influenced by the West. This is not news. Shoujo is the superior genre primarily aimed at young people. Harem/isekai are lazy genres that refuse any meaningful innovation. There is no 'Golden Age.' There will always be top-shelf anime. You should be watching Carole & Tuesday." |
| None of the above. Female Protagonist all the way. XD I kid. To answer seriously, I think Yu Narukami, was fleshed out the best in the anime. In the games, you get to pick how they interact with others. But when it came to picking a personality for the anime, unlike Persona 3 where they settled for only one, they pretty much took all the possible options and somehow managed to make a cohesive character with it. He was unpredictable, but at the same time, a serious character. Minato was a close 2nd, but I feel like they went the extra mile with Yu. And Ren was an absolute disappointment. |

| 3 > 4 >> 5 Which is hilarious since i also prefer persona 3 over 4, and 4 over 5 lmao |

| Non of them. Having play the game firsthand, Persona's protagonists are just player's self insert. |

Gorochu said: I don't know, I'm none the wiser. Silent protagonist is the most accurate that comes to mind, whether they have personality or not is everyone's conundrum.

| I haven't played Persona 4 yet because I don't have money for that one and most likely I'm going to spend my bucks for Code:Realize ~Wintertide Miracles~ first. Persona 5 introduced me to Persona and of course, I got curious about the other Persona games. Since I heard 3 or 4 is good, I decided to play 3 first well because I heard the game's theme is about "death". I admit there are so many lacking about 3's gameplay compared to 5 because 3's too old, right? But I came to like Makoto Yuki because y'know, he sacrificed his life for everyone which is the trope I like the most and the reason why he's my most favorite Persona Protagonist. I don't like to play 1 and 2 because of players encountering random enemies if you move to a one block, place, or something instead of auto-generated which is why I came to dislike turn-based games because of this (e.g. Old Final Fantasy games) sans Persona 3 and 5 who has a mechanic of stealth attack the auto-generated enemies. |

| Easily Joker for me, his character design is really nice. |
| "Well, she's flatter than a pancake" -Mimi Alpacas "Woof" -Tobiichi Origami "Are you trying to turn the dormitory into a strip club!?! -Atena Saotome |
| Easily Akira/Joker when it comes to the games his choices are absolutely hilarious at times. For the anime side of things Narukami Yu especially the English dub. |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| Chad Narukami gets to date ultimate best girl Rise which automatically makes him my favorite. |
 |
| FeMC of Persona 3 is my choice hands down, but from that poll, I'll go with Joker since he seems to be the only one with his own personality. |
 |
| Akira Kurus of Persona 5 is cool and hot gentleman personality so i love him. |
 |
| Shrek is my favorite protagonist. |
 |
Zeitresu said: Shrek is my favorite protagonist. Shrek is not from Persona, you deceiver. |

hotsushikun said: Zeitresu said: Shrek is my favorite protagonist. Shrek is not from Persona, you deceiver. Then how do you explain this?  |
|
| Persona 3 protagonist, easily. But I have to admit that P5 protagonist is cooler and more rebellious. |
| I'm a Devil Survivor masterrace. Sorry. (Although, I might try Persona 3) |
Play League of Legends here! Autocrat said: Hitler was good, objectively. |
| I'll never get tired of comparing Persona games. Keep these kind of threads coming. Protagonist-wise: Yu > Makoto > Ren Strength-wise: Makoto >>>>> Ren > Yu Story-wise: P3 > P4 > P5 Gameplay-wise: P5 >>> P4 >>> P3 (Admit it. Climbing 200+ floors of Tartarus with little to no change is boring and tedious) Now who wants to guess how they'll summon Persona in next game? Speaking of which: Tarot card crushing > Evoker > removing masks |

Hufflypuffy said: Renkini said: Now who wants to guess how they'll summon Persona in next game? Speaking of which: Tarot card crushing > Evoker > removing masks really?? i’d say evoker>masks>tarot cards. shooting yourself in the head to summon a persona is badass af, while crushing tarot cards just isn’t as dramatic as the other two All summoning styles are lit af but that's my opinion if I have to rank them. Evoker is a bit dark (concept of death and suicide) and you can't do jack shit if you don't have the item in name, while removing masks are somewhat plain. Tarot cards sound cooler and they appear out of thin air so it validates the concept of Personas and Social Link Arcanas more. I'm waiting for P6 team to summon theirs by dancing since ATLUS is obsessed with dancing enough to give each game a rhythm game spin-off :D |

| I like Akira best because he's the ONLY one with personality. I dont really like the stoney face silent main characters. And you actually forgot one, Minako. |
| 毎日, 日本語を勉強する |
| I think Yu has more swag. |
 |
| Akira was the most fun to me but I also really like P3 MC so it's a 50:50 to me |
 |
| I really enjoyed Joker solely for his more trolly answers in his conversation options |
| Akira has always been the most entertaining for me |
| Help the industry and buy Blu-rays and DVD's. Noragami is the best anime ever.  |
