Did the anime adapt any of the romance routes?


Oh sorry, super late reply. My fault for not having notification on lately

Well, no. The anime mostly focused on the story (that was obviously rushed) with pacing issues. In the game, you can build a relationship with female cast as the story progresses. Some characters are part of the main story while others you have to go out and unlock. You can technically romance all the female characters although


When I watched Persona 5 last year, I went in blind with no knowledge of the game. I played the game and it turned into a much better experience after really understanding the characters.

I highly recommend giving the game a try if you're a fan of JRPG (especially turned based games). It has well over 70-80H worth of content and depending on how you approach it, you can log up to 100h+

Don't worry about it, we all have other things to do.

As for Persona, thanks for in the information. I always liked Ann and Makato, so I was wondering if the anime would be worth watching or the game worth playing. With this, I've made up my mind to play the game. I don't really have the time to now, but maybe in a few weeks. Shame there's no PC boot of the game, so I'll just have to buy it for PS4.

Watching Persona 5 is a really strange experience to me. I've recently got invested into the game so watching the franchise made it more enjoyable but still lacked what I felt compared to the game.

Felt like these episodes were probably planned awhile ago but didn't include into the main sereis.

Well, Persona 5 R just got announced so it makes sense to produce more P5 anime. Still, poor Ishihama eternally stuck in a doomed project.


I don't think that's why. The anime ended at... not the end.

>2nd special.

like why are they even bothering if they're just gonna skip out so much?

at the very least it needs a good 6 or 7 more eps

I would honestly watch Persona but they didn't adapt in any of the romance routes. Really is a shame.

Welcome back to the forums @Swagernator. Glad to see you don't have an edgy forum set.

I don't know, but from how or better from where the series ended + the first special ... there is need for like 6 other specials to get the ending right lol.
