| Really hoping its not going to be a trainwreck. The game set a pretty high standard. |
 |
| Awww finally <3 I can't wait for it! It took me around 118 hours to finish the game last May. Let's see how A-1 Pictures delivers us the story and characterisations and which demons, err, personas we will see! They usually deliver good stuff when it comes to adaptions, so I think we should be fine with this studio. |
| great i am happy I wish it ill be as good as the game which is right now the third hightest rated ps4 game ever I think can't wait to see more animation of futaba ,Anne and makoto how many episode Will it be?I think it will be like 26 ep and more |
 |
| Liked the Persona 4 anime. Persona 4 the Golden, not so much. Persona 3 movies weren't too bad but still.... So kinda iffy on this but that hasn't stopped me from watching something before. |
| Great, I loved the game. I hopethat it will be as good as the game. |
| Liked persona 4, so I'm going to watch this. |
| I hope it is not trash like Persona 4 and not mediocre like Persona 3 |
| I hoped, that they announce enhanced edition at first, then anime. Game is have plenty of animated scenes, so just add 30-minutes of animated scenes, make some additional events (Like sports festival. I mean, there is only like one time when characters are in sports uniform in the school), and anime is not needed. But i'll see it coming (Get it? It's fresh joke.I just change words of...Ah, whatever) because even special sold out pretty well. And i liked animated scenes by Production I.G. in game, but it's have been almost inevatable that A-1 will animate Persona 5. |

| Just play the game and pick your Waifu...or jus go Harem route lol, at least there isn't trash tsunderes for you to loathe |

| Sup... |
| Hope it's at least 26 Episodes, and be a little more stylish than the OVA was |
| Sup... |
| omg I was afraid that day would never come because the game is SO FREAKING DENSE, like how many episodes this thing is going to have ? Yet I'm just so FREAKING HAPPY to see best boy Joker and I really wonder if they're going to make him the sneaky bastard that everyone think he is >< |
 |
| Obviously. I mean, I'm surprised that it took this long. |
 |
| This game received a lot of hype. Let's hope the adaptation doesn't disappoint. |

Syrup- said: Tennouji said: I seriously hope you guys don't do this.Good thing it'll be adapted so I won't need to play the game. Play the game. This anime will definitely not be a substitute for it. As someone else pointed out, this is a 90+ hour game that will be condensed into 12 episodes. It's simply impossible to fit any meaningful scenes into that space. I can almost guarantee they'll mess up the reveal of the villain, too. The writing of the story is completely different from Persona 4's to the point where making it a proper anime would already be somewhat difficult unless you were following the game to a T. edit: even if they do a two cour (which isn't likely, if we look at how they handled previous adaptations), 24 episodes is only 8 hours. Yes, I realize 90+ hours comes somewhat from the dungeon crawling aspect of the game. However, as someone who has completed the game 100%, I can say that the time comes mostly from listening to dialogue, as most of the game is fully voice acted. This is not something you can just "skip" in an anime, like you can with a video game/VN. It doesn't matter anyway on my case. I already watched P5's gameplays scattering around on Youtube. I have my reason why I don't want to play P5, gameplay-wise. |

stand said: YESSSSSS more best grill Yusuke!<3 This is so true on many levels. Would be hilarious if the anime actually made the MC choose a male character as a romance interest than any of the girls. |

| RIP anime. was nice knowing ye. |
 |
| Looks like I'm going to have to skip this one until I finish the game. I doubt it'll be any good considering that it's A-1 Pictures and the mediocre streak with the previous Persona anime (except the final P3 movie). The bad news is that I won't be able to root for best girl Ann who is voiced by based Nana Mizuki (assuming that she reprises her role in the anime). |
 |
| Here's why I'm not looking forward to this. A-1 Pictures somehow manages to make Persona fights BORING. Watch any of the fights from Persona 4 The Animation or even the recent Persona 5 Day Breakers. All the sound effects are muted to hell. Why? Why do they intentionally reduce the impact when these affairs should be loud and exciting? Not to mention that for whatever reason, despite how successful the Persona series is, Atlus seems content to let A-1 Pictures' B-team take the lead. A-1 Pictures is capable of making some great animation (e.g. Erased) don't get me wrong, but their handling of Persona has historically been lackluster with choppy animation, awkward pauses, and unexciting action sequences. |
 |
| Amazing news. Game was awesome, can't wait to see the anime. |
Need_for_Steed said: This is exactly what I felt was wrong with the Persona 4 animations. I don't get why Persona 3 got four movies, but the subsequent entries can barely get a proper episode count.

Nah, if they're smart than the MC won't end up with anyone. You know flames would rise not matter what girl is chosen. What's your worst girl btw... There's no tsundere here to auto-pick. |
| You are not your body, you are your brain, the "self" that emerges from within it. |
| Oh God... A-1 Pictures... They already ruined Ace Attorney so I feel sober sense of anger filling my heart just knowing they'll be handling this one... Really, they gotta stop rellying on title/brand alone to earn their money. They'll already going to earn plenty just by this being Persona 5, but if they put real effort and do this right they'll be gaining fountains of money for a while, so they have zero excuse to cheap out on it. If they screw up, that would be akin to confirming their incompetence to the entire world once and for all. |

| @HyperL i couldn't hate any girl :) all of them have some good qualities i will not watch this adaptation btw just waste of time if my fav girl will not win |

| That's an odd way of spelling Haru Okumura |

she is definitely the best waifu material futaba is just more relatable |
|
| 100+ hours of gameplay and story will probably be crammed into a measly 24 episodes (8 hours) of anime. Just fuck my favorite RPG up, A1. It happened to Gyakuten Saiban. Why not here too? |
 |
| Fair enough. Futaba is my second best grill so I wouldn't be all too sad if she won the waifu wars Syrup- said: Considering that they gave Ace Attorney a two cour anime adaptation (despite the fact that even the combined length of the first two games doesn't even amount to half of Persona 5's length) I would still say there's a high chance of them doing two cours... Though it's not going to matter much in the end if they end up treating P5 the same way they handled Ace Attorney.edit: even if they do a two cour (which isn't likely, if we look at how they handled previous adaptations), 24 episodes is only 8 hours.

| About time, gonna set my expectations to zero since its A-1. Although if it has similar quality of the P3 movies this could be decent. Regardless only watching for Lady Ann. |
| I'm not expecting much but HYPE is real |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| So exited for this, gotta wait til next year though but hopefully worth the wait. |
| @Wasshio It's available on both PS3 and PS4. Also it's probably going to be emulated sooner or later. |

| @Wasshio You could always play the game after you've watched the anime. Of course it's not the ideal option but it's still better than nothing. |

| Please don't screw it up, A-1 Pictures. |
 |
| @wasshio yeah well that's up to the viewer in the end, but it really sits in the same corner as Rewrite where there's absolutely too much to cover for it to be a decent adaptation. Too much stuff happens. A lot of the transitions between plot elements will be sudden and confusing, I believe. If you really can't get a copy of P5, I would stay away from the anime since it will only succeed in spoiling the experience. Up to you (and whoever else is reading) whether that matters, I suppose. |
|
| i'll just waiting for the doujin, trying few times of manga and anime, but never relly interested.... |
 "If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |
Wasshio said: The game's fastest clear is 18 hours, after cutting out all the dialogue and movies. That's about how much actual game play makes up that 90ish hours which is already a very fast play speed in general. (quite a number of people report 100+ or even 110+.)

If you really can't get a copy of P5, I would stay away from the anime since it will only succeed in spoiling the experience. Up to you (and whoever else is reading) whether that matters, I suppose. Well, in the end I kinda got the jist you would mention that since I may be wrong (correct me) but the game is around 80-100 hours of play-time depending on the user's speed reading. But yeah that's something that I can understand to an extent. For me no matter what options I have there's always something or either limitations or the way I can go through it. I will probably put this as well as how Comic_Sans responded and give a bit of conversation, I'll go into the series with no knowledge of the original source (the thing I'll check for this adaptation would be the news before it actually releases example: PVs, Staff, additional info etc) and after the anime series ends, I'll try to get the game somehow if I get the chance to. Maaaybe it would be risky because of what you said earlier but well for me I guess I don't really mind spoilers? (Maybe that would sound contradicting) unless I REALLY, REALLY do not want to know about the contents or future events of a series at all. Buuuut this is just me. However I really must say the story is so predictable that you probably would be able to guess who the villain is just by looking at them, and how much exposure they get in the story. Spoiling it isn't exactly that damaging since the plot isn't really trying to hide who the villain(s) is. Really really up to you. I'm being lenient compared to Rewrite where I pretty much felt like smacking people who said it was a substitute for the VN. |

| Oh god I just defecated in my pantsu kyaaaaa |
| Honestly, I'm on the fence here... After the massive fuck up with what was Occultic;Nine, which has a similar theme to Persona 5 by the way [1][2], I have doubts that A-1 Pictures can do justice with their Persona 5 anime series. *Heavy spoilers incoming. Don't click if you haven't played Persona 5 or watched Occultic;Nine* |
