Any chance this gets an anime series? P4 did, P3 even got some movies.

Does the 7th palace
have a stop gap forcing you to do it multiple days like 2 and 6 or can it be done in one go?
She's great.
Yeah I noticed that as well. They're really well done.
Ha, I actually didn't pay much attention in my first playthrough. Paying closer attention now, ironically.
I'd put it at 100% given there already was a prequel anime series for it
as for another one, there is still pretty good odds in a few years they will adapt it into an anime series to get people talking about persona again and remembering how good persona5 is before p6 comes.

Palace 5 spoilers:
This entire palace just screams 'trap' to me. It just seems like everyone in the real world is begging you to end this guy and I wouldnt be surprised if he was aware of it too. Im fighting the boss now so I will see soon enough.
If you go into the bathroom while she's doing that you get a cutscenes where she just runs away.

So was playing though the game and notice some cameos from Persona 4, it was about Chie and Yukiko. I saw both on the TV one ad was talking about a rising star female police officer who knew karate, and the other TV ad was talking about Amagi Inn and the beautiful owner who runs it. Now I'm going to pay attention more to the TV and surroundings to see if I see info about the other cast from P4.

I would like to say that when people bring up these points, it's not to make others playing the game feel bad for liking the game or even the pervier moments. There's nothing wrong with cheesecake and sexy shots, necessarily, and I wouldn't try to change Senran Kagura or tell someone they're wrong for liking it (or remove all the sexiness from this game, even). The main problem is when the cheesecake gets in the way of creating a harmonious theme within the story. The messaging behind Ann is kind of confused, yeah I can see where her phantom thief self and persona are about reclaiming her sexuality, but there aren't many (if any) scenes where she's purposefully being sexy vs being ogled unknowingly.
It's not about making anyone feel bad (or about creating an environment where you feel like just chatting up a cute person IRL might be perceived as a micro-aggression), but just talking about incongruous things within the narrative, themes, and all that of the game.
It sold really well so I can see them cashing in with something. There's also the Daybreakers OVA if you haven't seen that, it's just a single episode that follows one of the mementos cases from the game.

Come and steal it.
Depends if they are legitimately predatory - or should I say, something that a reasonable, well-adjusted individual would consider predatory. None of that being accused of harassment just for chatting up a girl bullshit. I guess you have a point with the
face down headrest
The question is, how many people does it make uncomfortable? If the vast majority of women are offended by something, sure, then it's time to stop and think; if it's just a religious fundamentalist or a radfem, well, they get offended by a lot of things that I enjoy, so why bother?
Of course, that's just called being a decent person.

Reload your save, dude. I don't know what to tell you. Hahaha.
God, I wish the SIU director (10/27 but earlier intermittent spoilers)
wasn't so hilariously evil every time they show him. The music kicking in and going bananas, him laughing maniacally...
I totally misread him in Japanese too lol, I thought he was another 'just doing his job' guy like Sae

You seem to have this idea that radical feminists are the only people who notice or take offence of this kinda stuff and have isolated their complaints to some specialist section of society in order to deligitimise their worries. So anyone who raises these concerns automatically is labelled a radical feminist and is therefore safe to ignore.
Like someone said earlier, people voicing these concerns aren't necessarily... radical feminists or religious fundamentalists or whatever that just hate sex or something.
I read about a confession of a certain P4 culprit
i'm actually at the point where i'm annoyed at the story for getting in the way of my references to previous persona games lmao
I want to write a longer post on this, but I don't have time - however, I don't think that's necessarily true. There's plenty in her social link that suggests she actually does want to be seen as sexy - she's a model (which alone should tell you she's comfortable showing her attractiveness to the public), she talks about how her idols as a kid were sexy anime villains, she gets super competitive about trying to be hotter and more popular than Mika. When Ryuji gets excited at seeing her in a swimsuit, she laughs and puts her arm around him.
Like, there's a huge difference between "not wanting to be groped and stalked and
manipulated into statutory rape

wait, what TV? I check the TV everyday and i didn't noticed that
I largely agree. But it will take a deeper character analysis to put together and I don't have the time right now...

9/9:
Wish more scenes were voiced.
Yusuke's shown up out of the blue and there's a Hawaiian lei around the protagonist in the loading animation. I have a big grin on my face.
Wish more scenes were voiced.
I hope somebody compiles a list with screenshots of all the Persona 4 (and 3) references.
Rise is really hard to miss, you even get a poster of her to hang on your wall.

My wording wasn't that "she doesn't want to be sexy" for that reason. But there aren't any scenes that come to mind when I think of her purposefully trying to be sexy or display her sexuality in some form, vs
having the camera go down her shirt and then we see it's the guys looking at her, or them looking at her legs peeking out from her yukata (kinda weird since she's always wearing short skirts and shorts, but maybe the yukata adds a different flavor) and having Morgana and Ryuji try to look up her skirt that one time she lied down on the couch. She gets understandably upset and annoyed when that happens, and I wouldn't consider it her trying to be sexy. The beach thing is fine (even thought Ryuji really needs to close his mouth before flies get in there lol), and I didn't complain about it.
Edit: I can think of a time or two she tries to
"seduce" Yusuke so they can bust into the workshop, but those scenes are mostly played for comedy since she's such a bad actor and Yusuke still buys it.

there's also persona 2 reference,
the sentai characters in futuaba's room are the same as the mask that the heroes of 2 wore as children
They will milk it for sure. Anime is a given imo and maybe a release with even more content too. Sales are too good.
Can't wait for P5A
The spoiler free 100% guide on GameFAQs seems solid. I'm not very far into NG+ but its held up.

This is fair enough. I'm mostly thinking about conversations earlier in the thread about her costume and animations and whatnot, and just kind of used your post as a jumping board. I'd agree that there's too many scenes where she is being sexualized by others or the camera rather than being deliberately sexy, but I don't think that the times when she herself acts sexy are out of character, is how I suppose I'd put it.

I think I might be around the halfway point. So far i've been enjoying everything about the game. I played Person 3, but never finished it. Never got to play 4 because I never ended up buying a vita. Anyway, the characters and the world are just so engrossing despite the game being very linear. I'm having more fun playing this than I did going through FF XV.
Can't wait to hear more about that Project Re Fantasy game they making.

I can agree with that. The overtness of her movements in battle might not be to my liking, but it can at least be argued that she's trying to be like the sexy female characters she saw on superhero shows.

Keeping a consistent theme doesn't seem unreasonable at all, I guess. To be honest, I don't object to anything you just said.
Maybe, just seems like society is going crazy, it's hard to tell sometimes who just wants an honest discussion and who wants to shove their particular ideology down your throat. But where would you draw the line between reasonable and frivolous complaints?
Let me put it this way: i don't think I know a single woman in my life who hasn't, at some point in their existence, made real, actual countermeasures to being assaulted in their day-to-day life.
Compared to that 'normal', people complaining about feminazis ranks very low on my priority scale.
Why do you even feel that way lol

So, does Dungeon
works the same as previous ones, as in if I go in and finish it ASAP I will have free time or not? Considering the game blatantly warning me to finish up my Confidants, after all.

Yeah, you get all that free time.
You just don't send the calling card until the last possible moment.
