| they got some big name VA to dub on ENG Laura B & Johnny are 2 of my faves |
 |
| Heard some good things about this video game adaptation (which isn't something I say often, to be honest). Won't be getting my expectations too high though, as of course, it's an adaptation and such things often disappoint. I haven't actually played the video game myself so I may enjoy more than those who have, decent first episode though! |
| PE-RU-SO-NA |
| already finished the game a while back.. I think English VA did a great job.... still not used to JPN VA's due to 80hr+ of ENG VA from the game... everyone sounds fine except for Yosuke, Igor, and Teddy imo... they'll prob grow on me later though... not bad first EP except for when he starts to strip at the end.. xD |

| Just finished Persona 4 Golden. Had to watch the anime. Good thing all the characters have the same VO as the game. Yu's personality is pretty much what I expected. 90 percent of this was basically word for word scene for scene adaption. Which is fine, maybe a bit lazy. Also, the artstyle is a bit strange. I didn't think the animation in the animated cutscenes of the game was great, so I'm glad they improved it a little. |

| Oh, most of people that watching this played the game before (or playing it) But... I'm not those people I don't know anything about Persona Except "Stand"-battle xD Oh that was enjoyable... I don't have any problem with their voices.. not the artstyle I need ep two!!!!!!!!!!! MsChii said: Opening theme and ending theme in ENGLISH! I like them. Exactly in engrish... I rike them xD |
"Signature removed"   |
| I'm playing Persona 3 Portable and I was curious how the Persona 4 is, but I have no PS3 so I decided to watch the anime. First episode was great, I loved it. The bear was funny xD |
| As a HUGE fan of the games (especially the Vita one) I'm loving this and can't wait for Rise to appear. I'm already noticing small differences between the story in the anime and the games. For example, then Yu's power awakes he's alone with Yosuke, but in the anime, Chie is there too. Can't wait to see how things will play out. |
| I found the atmosphere of the anime quite original. And the plot is intriguing, I'm definitely curious to watch the next episodes. |
| "Me ni wa me wo, ha ni wa ha wo, aku ni wa aku wo." |
| Ok, se we've got a hipster for a MC? Lol, this is nothing what I expected. I like the atmosphere and the setting - they give the anime that psychological feel which is great. |
  |
| Okay, decided to put this off until I finished the game, and boy was it worth it. This episode leaves some things out, but overall was fun. The part where yu gets Izanagi was BADASS. But I'm sure the face gradient is a bit sketchy, but nothing too bad. Will try to finish this before golden starts >_< CAN'T WAIT FOR THE PERSONA RIDE THAT IS GOING TO BEGIN :D |
| Well I just finished playing the original Persona 4 on my PS2 ( Yeah I know I'm pretty late to the party lmao) and I gotta say I really enjoyed this first episode. It seems to be exactly what I was hoping it would be, a faithful adaptation of the game. I think my only gripe is that they didn't get all the games original VAs for the anime (for the english version anyway). Not a huge deal I guess since most of them sound pretty close to what they sounded like in the game. But there is one that really stands out and kinda bothers me, Chie. She has like this really heavy accent...not really sure what it is...Canadian maybe? (I'm sorry if its not actually Canadian, I'm terrible at placing accents lol). So she just sounds really weird to me everytime she talks :<. But eh, I'm sure I'll get used to it. Anyways, I'm looking forward to watching more persona awesomeness! :D |

| Episode was great. I wanted to get into this series by starting with the Persona 4 anime, I'm getting the game for my PS2 in about a month for my birthday. Persona 3 FES as well. This series looks very promising, I like how the MC gets a special power through a card called a Persona. And the midnight channel thing, there's probably still a lot of mystery behind that. Looking forward to more! |
 |
| This is exactly like the game. I don't think it translates over very well, but I'll push through |
| A lot happened in that first ep. The persona or whatever the power is called reminds of stands from JoJo. |
 |
| I only played Persona 1 on the PSP. And I am only mid-game so I know almost nothing about it. But this anime got amazing OST and a good ripoff of JoJo Part 4... so is a must watch for me! |
| Finally, I will start watching this (maybe just for nostalgic reasons :P) I like how they still kept game elements in there, so you can see its obviously adapted from a game. And the OST ofc too, which wants to make me replay it for a fourth time, hehe. First episode doesnt feel rushed at all (matter of fact I would have liked that in the game too xD since it takes you hours to just get to that part where they are in the first episode), they did a good job just showing the important and necessary parts (even nanakos love for Junes xD) and it worked very well. And I like how they kept the MC reserved and quiet, would look wrong for me, if he'd start talking waterfalls. |

| Solid first episode. I loved the OST that played when Izanagi appeared! |
 |
| Well, I came from Persona 5, so I was curious about Persona 4 and the animation while its not good its better than Persona 5 The Animation and this anime was.....6 years at that time lmao. Still, fights are bland and Yu is boring. I just hope this murder mystery will be good. I don't remember if they used the calendar system in the anime version of Persona 5 like this anime version of Persona 4 but I really like it! |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| Seems interesting so far with some lighthearted comedy. I know who is behind this tv world thing, must be Sadako from The Ring. Yuu really went from deadpan school student to badass Persona user by just putting on some glasses lol. |
 |
| NOW I'LL FACE OUT, I HOLD UP, I REACH OUT TO THE TRUTH OF MY LIFE SEEKING TO SEIZE, ON A WHOLE MOMENT TO NOW, BREAK AWAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY this brings a lot of p4 memories, I want to play p4g again so I can move on from the P3 ending, some of the source material changes, hopefully just a few one, animation was a little bit bad tho |

| Entering into the TV is such a trippy thing ahah. Finished the game and so far it's a pretty solid start for the adaptation |
 |
| Meh. Kinda meh. Never played the game beyond what this episode showed. The setting always felt promising, but the persona superpower thing and the protagonist are both lame. |
