Twas me.

I wish SMT:4 and SMT:4F would get an anime adaptation...

 

[ShonenJump]

about time!

 

[BORTZ]

I had a feeling this would happen, but considering how popular P5 was, this was more or less inevitable.

@Chary you didn't post this? You are disappointing the community "GBATem's #1 Naoto"

 

[Abu_Senpai]

This is great news. Now i need to play P5 ASAP.

 

[Pacheko17]

I don't know how to feel about this.

But the game is great, play the game guys.

Still on vacation and I didn't think an anime announcement warranted a thread. Steins Gate 0 got an anime as well, which is based upon a game, and I didn't make a thread for that either.

Either way I am excited for the anime. I didn't like persona 5 as much as 4, but hopefully it'll be a good adaptation, unlike the Golden Animation.

Vacation? O_O

Your status says "never sleeps" How can you take vacation? And even worst is PERSONA NEWS. You know, the whole embodiment of who you are? Not worth reporting? *FLIPS TABLE*

I'm buying persona 4 arena ultimax for that comment.

I guess you could say....we never seen it coming.

I don't do drugs. But I am having a good sunday. 80 degrees and playing mario maker.... all over again... cause of corrupted save data... the super expert costumes O_O

So anyway, does anyone here recommend Persona 5 as a good RPG? Maybe compared to tales of berseria or something that came out this year?

 

[jDSX]

Oh yeah PRIASE ATLUS FOR THIS

 

[vinipeix]

Nice!

I finished P5 today and loved it! I'm looking forward to watch the animation.

 

[Deleted-379826]

Awesome! Excited for this and will watch. Persona 5 is great.

I think that it was confirmed before the release of Persona 5. However, it's good to have some details of the anime finally!
