[houndfaker]

rahhhh i haven’t felt like drawing for it (i miiiight after work today?) but i have some teams picked out for the p3 pokemon au and i feel like babbling about them since ive been replaying heartgold. under da cut. a lot of the team configurations are based on a mixture of persona parallels and just vibes.

femc/kotone/minako/etc

I’ve literally redone her team a million times because I’m never satisfied with it but i forced myself to compromise on this particular configuration (she’s probably got a ton in her pc though. members that didn’t make the cut include bewear, raticate, musharna, dragapult)

blaziken represents orpheus, and duskinoir represents thanatos. the remainder are more like “i think she’d have these”. storywise in particular, plusle is a childhood pokemon matching with yuki’s minun (the protags are twins in this au as always).

yukari

these are pretty outright i think. decidueye for the obvious archery reasons (have joked that i think it’d be cute if yukari’s decidueye actually used to be very poor with its aim until she started helping it practice)

miltank being (sort of???) representative of io, and togekiss being (SORT OF???) representative of isis. (there are only so many cow/bull pokemon and a few of which im reserving for other teams)

the rest are mostly vibes based! porygon in particular is a pokemon passed down to her from her father after his death. she has a very tight bond with it.

akihiko

magnezone represents polydeuces and golurk represents caesar

the rest are mostly vibes based. aki comes off as the type of trainer who would literally fistfight his pokemon as training. his pachirisu was his sister’s first and only pokemon before she passed.

mitsuru

ceruledge represents penthesilea. empoleon Somewhat represents artemisia.

she has somewhat noble/rare pokemon to fill her team. gardevoir is a reference to her mild navigational abilities (it would be kinda funny if she was mildly psychic like sabrinabut to a lesser extent). indeedee is a pokemon she picked up at a young age, one of the first few she caught herself.

fuuka

fuuka is a coordinator as opposed to a trainer, so her team isn’t super battle-capable. lapras and musharna are meant to sort of rep lucia/juno.

i dont have heavy thoughts on her selection but i think quagsire is very close to her.

aigis

this is one of the teams that has a great number of members that relate to her personas. bastiodon, escavelier, and iron valiant are meant to represent palladion/athena. silvally is pretty much a perfect fit narratively as a partner for aigis. ninjask is there because well i think she likes it. pikachu is a match with the rest of the moonlight bridge quartet, each having an electric mouse pokemon

she’s still a robot btw. scarvio is my enabler for that being a thing within the pokemon universe

BONUS ONES THAT ARENT FOR SEES (i have not made teams for all of them because the bestie is in charge of everyone else)

you knew this was coming

kikuno

kikuno has a number of mons matching to mitsuru’s (they caught their indeedees together, for example, and gallade to gardevoir and whatnot). noctowl dodrio and lycanroc because i think she’d like them. rotoms various forms i imagine are a helpful aid for housework, and they match one another in Mischief.

chidori

I think chidoris are pretty self explanatory. very vibes based. tauros/houndoom representing medea. mesprit because we’ve been imagining each member of strega being in possession of a member of the lake trio.

labrys (she’s here too yay!!)

this one i actually wrote a compact little list for LMAO

zorua - her illusion abilitiesss

bouffalant - asterius

haxorus - her axe

aegislash - unit 024

furfrou - snowy

pheromosa - ariadne

dats all for now. we have loose plot concepts in mind but nothing concrete enough for me to explain here

[princekirijo]

Thoughts on the P3 casts personas? i.e which do you prefer between the initial and secondary personas and which are your favourites?

Oh god thank Rui ily for this

Ok so I'll keep this one fairly opinion based (because someone else asked me a very similar question and I thought fuck it I'll rant about them twice because Personas and their designs are my fav thing to talk about) so without further ado:

So in general I absolutely adore the Persona 3 cast's Personas. Design wise they're not as flashy as P5's but I feel like they don't need to be because their more muted color palette and simpler designs fit the tone of P3 well. There are some I love to pieces (Penthesilea, Artemisia, Caesar, Castor and Cerberus come to mind) and then there are some that I don't like that much (Polydeuces and Nemesis). I'll put a more detailed breakdown undercut because I know I'll get carried away lmao but those are my general thoughts!

I'll break them down by character so it's easier!

MC/FeMC: OK so I do have a preference for male Orpheus but I honestly like both! Female Orpheus has a more cheery color palette (well brighter is prob the better word) which I like a lil more but I think the original one is just iconic. I love his harp and how he uses it to bash enemies idk why that's so funny to me it just is. Thanatos is probably one of my favorite designs ever I love that guy so much. I love his mask and I love how beast like he is. And the coffins? Absolute banger design. Messiah is overall a good design but I'm not as fond of it? It's very well executed but I think because it's so late in the game and it's just not as iconic as the other two I'm kinda meh about it you know. Thanatos is my fav for the MCs (and if he doesn't count for whatever reason then Orpheus).

Junpei: I don't have too much to say about Hermes design wise other than I like him! I like his bird look and tbh my fav thing about him is actually his attack animations! The way he slides into enemies is really satisfying to me idk why. Trismegistus though. God I love him so much. Mostly because of his awakening scene that is honestly one of the highlights of the game (like a lot of the second tier awakenings) and the fact his design is a fusion of Hermes and Medea is just so so good. I def prefer him.

Yukari: I really enjoy both Io and Isis a lot. I really like their designs and their lore and how it ties into Yukari's own story! However compared to some of the others, these designs kinda fall in the middle of the pack for me. Solid looks but nothing crazy you know? I think I slightly prefer Isis because of her wings I think that's such a cool design feature.

Akihiko: Ah my boy. He has one of the best and the worst persona designs of the cast for me. Polydeuces is such a dope choice for him as a Persona. Picking the immortal half of the Gemini twins for him and giving Shinji the other one is so so so so good and I could rant all day about why I love the concept. The design? Ugly af I'm sorry 😭 I cannot stand it it looks so weird the big bulky body with the skinny little legs looks so off-putting and his hair is just so weird? I don't like it at all 💀 Caesar however???!! Absolutely ADORE him. Such a powerful looking design and I love the lil person who sits in his chest (I'm one of the "it represents Shinji" people because I just love that idea so much). Caesar def is my preference here.

Fuuka: I really love Fuuka's Personas because of how she interacts with them. I really like how she's encased inside the persona and I think both Lucia and Juno look really really good. Unfortunately they're kinda similar to Yukari's for me in that they're like both very good but just don't stand out as much as some of the others. I prefer Lucia for her lore and I prefer Juno's design so 🤷‍♂️

Mitsuru: Oh baby. I absolutely adore Penthesilea and Artemisia to DEATH. I have written essays on here about the details of their designs and how they fit Mitsuru as a character so so well. Probably two of my favorites in the entire series. If I had to pick I think I'd give the slight edge to Artemisia because the fact that she has that red mask symbolizing the fact Mitsuru is finally coming out of her shell and letting down her walls a little makes me so so emotional.

Koromaru: Cerberus is a very very good boy. I think it's a really on the nose design but there's nothing wrong with that he's perfect. 10/10 would pet and give treats.

Ken: I think Ken's personas have the same deal as Akihiko's for me but to a lesser degree. I don't like Nemisis that much. I don't hate it as much as I hate Polydeuces, I just think it looks really awkward. I could see what they were going for and the blade saw thing is cool it just looks... Kinda weird. Idk. Kala-nemi on the other hand I much prefer! I think it does the over exaggerated proportions much better than Polydeuces (it's big bulky shoulders look and move really well) and I like the lore behind it. It's not a massive favorite but I enjoy it.

Aigis: Honestly I like both Palladion and Athena a lot. They're both really solid designs and they fit Aigis super well! I'd have to give the edge to Athena though because I love the big shields that circle her. Really cool touch.

Shinjiro: Oh god Castor. I adore Castor so so much. Such a fantastic design. The horse the blade in the chest just everything about him. He looks like Polydeuces but just so so much better. Brilliant design def one of my favs in the series.

P3 Club Book pages 17-18 scan and transcription.

○ペンテシレア

桐条美鶴 (以下「美」) コホン、最初に言っておきたいことがある。私のペルソナの名は、ペンテ“シ”レアであって、決してペンテ“レ”シアではない！ あちらこちらで間違われては、さすがに気分を害するというものだ。これを機に、しっかり覚えておいてもらおう。さて、そのペンテシレアだが、これもアイギスのパラディオンと同じくトロイ戦争の登場人物で、トロイ軍の増援として現われる女だけの国アマゾネスの女王だ。12人の女戦士を引き連れて颯爽と登場し、ギリシャ軍を猛烈に追い詰めるのだが、敵陣に英雄アキレスが参戦したことで勝敗は決してしまう。12人の女兵士ともども、ペンテシレアは討ち死にしてしまうのだ。討ち倒された直後は、ペンテシレアの亡骸はアキレスになぶり者にされるのだが、その兜を取って素顔を見た瞬間、アキレスは倒したことを後悔したのだという。まったく、男という奴は......！ 余談だがアマゾネスの女性は弓を得意とし、弓を引くのに邪魔にならないよう右の乳房だけを切り落としたという説もある。ペルソナデザインに、そのエピソ一ドの名残が残っているぞ。

Penteshirea

○アルテミシア

美 このアルテミシアという名には、ふたつの由来があると言えるだろう。まず歴史上有名な女戦士として、ペルシャ戦争でギリシャ海軍を完膚なきまでに討ち破った、ハルカリナッンスの女王アルテミシアがひとつの由来と老えられる。彼女は別に自ら戦うべき理由は何もなかったにも関わらず、生来の激しく武勇を求める性格ゆえに、自分からギリシャ遠征軍へと参加したらしい。私が言うのもうひとつの由来は、先に紹介したペンテシレアのアルテミス (狩りの女神) 崇拝、アルテミスのカを受けし者という側面から来ると思われるもの。アマゾネスは狩民族だったため、女神アルテミスを厚く崇めていたらしい。なお、アルテミスは月の女神でもあり、口一マ神話のダイアナと同一視されることもあるようだ。

Artemisia

○ネメシ��

天田乾 (以下「天」) 僕のペルソナはネメシス。ギリシャ神話の女神です。本編でみっともないところを見られてるんで、ちょっと恥ずかしいんですが、もうこれ以上ないくらい僕にピッタリな、復讐の女神です。しかも、神話でネメシスの母と言われるのが夜の女神ニュクス。これって、酒落になりませんよね。ただ本来の神話におけるネメシスというのは、人間が人間に対する復讐ではなく、神様が人間に与える天罰みたいなものを神格化したものらしいです。あー、でもあの当時は、荒垣さんに対して「これは天罰だ！」とか言いつつ復讐すること考えてたから、余計にハマっちゃってますね。いやまったく、僕もあの頃は若かったですから......。そうそう、ネメシスの別の一面として、復讐心をなだめて癒す神としてのものもあるようです。僕としては、こちらの解釈を取りたいですね。あ、 ちなみにペルソナの装着者が僕なんで勘違いしている人もいるようですが、神話のネメシスは女神ですからね。間違えちゃダメですよ？

Nemesis

○カーラ・ネミ

天 ネメシスが真のカを現わしたのが、このカーラ・ネミです。聞きなれない名前だと思いますけど、企画担当のスタッフの方が「ネットで検索しても名前すら見つからないはずだ！」と豪語するほど、専門書くらいにしか記述がない神様です。これはヒンドゥー教の古い女神で、カラ・ネミとも表記されます。ちょっとネメシスと名前が似てますよね？ じつはギリシャ神話のネメシスのほか、 その他いくつかの神の名前の由来となるほど古い神なんです。名前の意味は、「時の輪の外輪」あるいは「天球の外輪」という意味で、時やカルマの輪廻を司っています。ペルソナのカーラ・ネミがプラネタリウムみたいな形をしてるのは、後者の意味からイメージされたらしいですよ。また、別の解釈として、カーラは「黒」( 大黒天ニ=マハ 一カーラのカーラと同様) 、ネミは「聖所、聖なる森」を意味する言葉にもなり、黒い森という聖地そのものを指すものとして捉えられることもあるようです。何だか、すいぶん難しいですよね？

The Carte Blanche and their signature scents

Peter Ransom: Bad Boy - Carolina Herrera

my Nureyev kinnie gf wears this and I feel like that’s enough evidence but regardless, Juno’s description of Peter smelling like « earth and spice » in What Lies Beyond p3 is further proof. it’s a pretty woody and amber based perfume making it really warm and spicy but the top and mid notes of pepper, sage, and cedar balance it out to create that earthy spicy smell. he definitely matches his perfumes to his bath products so even if he isn’t wearing a scent, he still smells good, hence why even when the cologne wore off, his bed still smelled nice. (also the name is really iconic afsjshxhd)

Juno Steel: Black Saffron - Byredo

with warm spicy, leathery mid notes, this is something that gives me very noir detective vibes but then there are the top notes of saffron, juniper berries and chinese grapefruit which shift the narrative a little and turn it from an entirely brooding scent to one that is more light. it’s a really androgynous perfume in that it ties together the more traditionally masculine smelling woody leather with the more traditionally feminine violets and spiced citrus smell. the base note of cashmeran gives it a softer and sweeter dry down but the vetiver pulls through with that earthy leather smell, perfectly encapsulating our dear detective in a single bottle. he would also would wear Whispers in the Library but that’s just me projecting

Buddy Aurinko: Jazz Club - Replica

this fragrance is super boozy which already fits Buddy so well but on top of that, there are the tobacco and vanilla base notes that give it a very sweet but smoky scent. the styrax gives it that floral smell with some dry, spicy bite bringing in that powerful feminine energy (we stan), the other notes are more citrusy and spicy and are really prominent at the top but the dry down is what really makes this perfume, it’s intoxicating, heady, and bold, just perfect for Mrs. Aurinko.

Vespa Ilkay: Wood Sage and Sea Salt - Jo Malone

Vespa doesn’t really seem like the type to wear perfumes all that much but at some point Buddy drags her to a fragrance shop her and Buddy went shopping and Vespa found this scent (it’s also the perfume she wore on their wedding day). it’s a very aromatic scent with lots of notes of citrus and salty fresh air, it also has some musky herbal notes which fit her vibes pretty well. while it’s not exactly something you would expect her to wear at first, the dichotomy between the bright scent and her abrasive nature and the likeness between the rugged mineral musk and her projected persona makes this a fun choice.

Rita [Redacted]: Cloud - Ariana Grande

It’s sweet and playful which is already a scent I feel like rita would love but it also has notes of coconut, praline and vanilla that really add some complexity to the scent, while most of the notes are sugary and lactonic, the top notes of lavender, pear and bergamot create a nice balance with them. she is happy go lucky and sweeter than sugar but she is also a character with layers and is more than just a superficial persona which this perfume does a good job of encompassing. I also feel like she switches between this perfume and A Whiff of Waffle Cone from Salt and Straw sometimes depending on how sweet she wants to go.

Jet Siquliak: Old Spice Dynasty Deodorant but sometimes Duel - Annick Goutal

l i s t e n I can’t imagine the big guy caring much for fragrances when the only thing it’ll add is an extra step to his morning routine so (according to him), it would be much more efficient to just wear a deodorant that has a very distinct smell, hence Old Spice Dynasty, a very woody and leathery scent meant to replicate modern masculine colognes. Occasionally he’ll wear Duel but not very often, it’s similar to Dynasty with the woody, spicy and leathery notes but is also a bit more fresh with orris root, petitgrain and artemisia.

The Ruby 7: Molecule 01 - Escentric Molecules

this funky little perfume deals with some pretty futuristic stuff in terms of its scent profile, it is made of one note and one note only, a molecule called Iso E. It’s a velvety sensual cedarwood but varies greatly depending on the person (or car) who is wearing it, the scent wears close to the skin and has a distinctive smell depending on how it reacts to your body chemistry, some will adore the fragrance on them, some may not even be able to smell it while others will find the scent downright offensive, this perfectly encapsulates the radical nature of the Ruby and there really isn’t a better fitting perfume.

I could talk for hours about all the different fragrances everyone in the penumbra pod wears and I’ll probably be making a separate post just on all of the signature scents of Nureyev’s aliases lol 

[mystech-master]

I probably asked this a while ago but idc.

What do you guys think the third tiers of the current P3 crew would be. I mean the Investigation team and Phantom Thieves all have 3rd tiers, so why haven’t people thought of them for the P3 guys?

The investigation team’s 3rd Tiers were, for the most part, just alternative names/titles for their second tiers. The only exceptions I recall were Chie, Teddie, and MAYBE Naoto.

The Phantom Thieves’ 3rd Tiers were either the real names of their 1st tiers, an actor who portrayed the 1st tiers, or a historical figure who inspired the 1st tier.

I am not too sure on  which I would use for 3 or if I’d do something new.

Aigis had Palladion who became Athena

Mitsuru has Penthesilia who became Artemisia

Akihiko had Polydeuces who became Caesar

Fuuka had Lucia who became Juno

Ken had Nemesis who became Kala-Nemi

Yukari had Io who became Isis

and Junpei had Hermes who became Trismegistus

Koromaru can keep Cerberus

Also, you don;t need to limit yourself to just Greco-Roman, since Isis and Trismegistus have some egyptian connections, and Kala-Nemi has Hindu origins. So you can sprinkle in SOME variety.

[yusuke-of-valla]

Just watched Frozen 2, and I am now completely convinced that Mitzi and Elsa would become great friends given the chance. Also Mitzi can def sing Into the Unknown.

Yes, definitely. I’m actually pictiing little Mitzi singing “Into The Unknown” when she first starts experiencing the Dark Hour and then later “Show Yourself” with Artemisia during P3

[dolgelo]

[ Mitsuru’s idea of romance is a deeply inaccurate one, despite what she may say or try to convince you to believe - at least till Arena, which is to be taken into considerations for the mere fact that no traces of romance or mentions of it are present there. her Social Link is definitely rushed at some parts, I guess starting from Rank 7-8 onwards. and while full of flaws and with the whole fiancé matter be tossed off in a matter of days  ( consider you can begin interactions really really late in game, even with your Academics maxed out you will probably end her SLink some days before the final Boss ) , it still gives the impression Mitsuru really has no objective idea of how romance works.

even though the choice of making her datable only if you have your stat of Academics maxed out was most likely made for gameplay/challenge reasons alone, it still reflects the idea of touching an almost perfect level of knowledge -- which Mitsuru admits she finds attractive and worthy of her time. she’s student council president, Gekkoukan’s golden girl and irradiates an aura of utter intimidation and respect -- so much that Akihiko’s fan club keeps their distance too, when needed. combine it with her very picky tastes, her sense of rigidity and her lack of time, and you get almost the impossible picture to replicate, in reality. which person could ever meet all the requirements and still be a peer of her ?

Mitsuru has grown up with little to no true realistic images of love around her, and while not too uncommon, it could have had a toll on her psyche - especially if you pile up the duty of a Kirijo and the next successor as CEO of her family company to that too. her parents didn’t marry for love but fell for one another with time, but her mom left when she was still too young. aside from that, she says she used to read romance novels, classic ones, but that was the extent of it. the first time she speaks of romance in-game is when she is seen searching for books of that kind in the library, and can’t understand why the idea of marriage seems to ‘annihilate’ romance and is barely told in books and novels. 

“I’m not very good at romantic relationships. I have no spare time to devote to another.”

“Marriage is a social construct and must be carefully thought out. There are fewer books about marriage and family life than romance ones. Is marriage worth the sacrifice?”

“Wherever I run, the road will lead to regret. [...] I have put forth many times more effort because I am a woman, and what has it brought me? Marriage to a complete stranger, having my name and group stripped from me, expected to conceive a heir...”

Mitsuru distinguishes love from marriage and can’t seem to link the two concepts at the time of Rank 7; coming from the representation of the Empress Arcana, meant to represent family, nurturing, and even marriage, it gets even more powerful. she is certain that no love could be ever involved in her case or in most marriages in the long run, and that that one feeling can be instead found easily in the more, for her, frivolous, simpler dating aspect -- one she was never granted, in her teen years, the privilege of experiencing, because of her betrothed.

yet she is described as a fan of romantic and adventurous stories, she is seen extremely lovable and caring in that little time she actually does show it for the protagonist. I think she’d be happy too at the protag being in love, genuinely so and deeply too - har em route doesn’t exist in this house, with someone else  ( or akihiko too, whenever I feel masochistic and and you fancy some pain and “what’s this feeling?? funny bc we’re friends right ? right?” scenarios SIGH, which can be applied to mitsuru too - but perhaps when much older than her p3 self AAAA ). i think her main issue, in p3 times, with it is that she’s more in love with the concept of love than actually having true sentiments of passion. 

that is also why I think, to change her perspective, she would need and prefer someone way more down to earth; while she’s mostly immersed in her novels, caged concepts and so on, the simplest and even sometimes most common aspect of romance, fights too, could really open her eyes on how the world does seem to go. her Persona goes from an unconquerable Amazon who finds her demise for love, to a powerful Queen and mother (for artemisia of caria) / goddess of freedom, nature and womanhood (for artemis) and that must also be taken into consideration ]

Ah yes, because the guy who shat himself in rage because RWBY ended up in the same game as Persona is such a reliable source....

So with death battle’s upcoming Mitsuru vs Weiss match I wanted to talk about, mostly nerd out about mitsuru, look regardless on weather you like rwby or not weiss isn’t on mitsuru’s skill level.

Spoiler Alert: he uses numerous conflicting examples and sources to effectively inflate Mitsuru as a fighter.

(I mean she fought two gods and lived to tell about it.)

Neither of which she is confirmed to fight. That’s the issue with feats like these: they rely on possibility. And it's equally likely that Mitsuru did nothing. Only Makoto is canonically confirmed to fight the Nyx Avatar.

In fact, the closest thing to a canonical representation of the battle was the P3 movie Winter Of Rebirth...where Mitsuru is fighting Shadow hordes, not Nyx who is getting soloed by Makoto. And since Makoto is a Wild Card user. he would be VASTLY more powerful than Mitsuru.

As for Erebus: Again, only one person (Aegis) was required in the fight. So we don’t know.

So let’s talk about mitsuru and then weiss as combatants. Both women fight on teams and manipulate ice in some way. They both summon things That’s about all I can compare, why? cause I took a deep dive into both series, and I’ll be frank, mitsuru fighting gods and monsters that can cause nukes is a feat enough.

That was enough for ‘Yu Vs. Jotaro’...

And again: That’s not confirmed. The only god you could be talking about here is Erebus-

And you know what? I’m just gonna preemptively go full Autism on you.

here’s Erebus’ stats according to the Megami Tensei wiki:

STR: 80 MAG: 75 END: 90 AG: 60 LUC: 70

And here are the stats of all the party memebers in Persona 3 at Level 99:

Junpei: 82 44 69 56 53

Yukari: 50 91 55 55 53

Akihiko: 69 70 55 63 47

Mitsuru: 55 85 52 61 51

Aigis: 61 58 84 56 45

Ken: 55 66 58 70 55

Koromaru: 58 56 58 82 50

Notice something?

The so called ‘mountain crusher’s’ STR stat is LOWER than the best physical attacker and Junpei’s never seen cracking any mountains.

Not just that but Mitsuru also has average agility (which dictates speed and hit rate with physical attacks) and average luck (dictating the success of status attacks) alongside the LOWEST END stat in the game meaning she wouldn’t be able to keep up with Weiss, she’d most likely fail using status attacks since they have a base success rate of 25% and one solid physical hit would do serious damage.

So right there are reasons why Weiss would have a chance if we follow your apparent standards of using gameplay.

But mitsuru is the team’s tactician and well studied in her academics despite fighting monsters, she’s top of her grade, she’s a great fighter and when she returns in persona 4 arena/ultimax she’s kinda insane as a fighter. (going through the full story in both’s massive text walls would take ages But I played through both a few months back and the things they write them capable of doing is insane)

yeah, like saying a monster can crush mountains but is weaker than an above average baseball player?

Then we have a little issue of; she’s not the tactican. Makoto is. Mitsuru is just the boss.

Yeah and? Can see use it in the battlefield?

Most death battle fighters are great fighters.

Also so now we’re using Arena as an example? Does that mean you accept her moveset in that game as canon? Meaning No status moves and no Diarahan?

so I decided to come up with a post (originally a power point before it crapped out) as to why mitsuru at her current skill is just too much for weiss.

So we’re using gameplay as a basis with Mitsuru’s P3 stats and her P4A moveset, judging how you’re talking.

Let’s talk about mitsuru first

Mitsuru kirijo:

Feats/Abilities/skills:

Mitsuru is top of her grade, she’s so good the school often ask her to make speeches for assemblies that rouse the school so much, the principal tried copying them word for word out of jealousy.

And? So is Weiss so which school has higher standards? Also speech giving ability Is not the same as tactical thinking.

Despite also studying for school, she leads and runs S.E.E.S as a tactician (a chairman actually has the final say on everything but she leads them in battle) Her persona is both good for combat and sensory support (meaning she can sense her allies and other people, persona and non persona users)

On and off mind you as you’re only required to go into Tartarus occasionally and extended time in Tartarus will wear out a Persona user.

Meanwhile, Weiss’ studies ARE fighting since she needed to qualify for Beacon so her life has been revolving around being a good fighter.

Mitsuru’s persona can conjure ice in an instant and is completely unaffected but any ice type attacks done to her, she doesn’t even react at all.

She can also heal and is a pretty good healer in battle (When she isn’t casting marin karin! Regardless there’s no rule in death battle that says they can’t heal, the only rule was outside help and with the last handful of death battles some of them had healing factors) 

She can also charm her enemy or cause them to go into panic

Yeah and she’s super weak to fire.

And-wait a minute. Why are you referencing Diarahan and status attacks in the same post as the one where you try citing feats from Arena? Are you just picking choosing what Mitsuru gets?

Mitsuru doesn’t need to use her evoker and can actively summon her persona in the real world. (This is also mentioned in persona 4 arena and shown in battle as mitsuru states she only uses it out of habit.) This is also stated by when she calls her persona in both the game and manga she doesn’t use her evoker.

Bullshit.

This is from Mitsuru’s first battle in Persona 4 Arena. 

And even IF she does summon her Persona without her Envoker here: She’s in a different world. Same in Ultimax.

You’re just lying at this point.

Also: That ice spear doesn’t look very impressive when you remember Weiss summoned an ice WALL that fast in Volume 1. Yeah, if you’re gonna use outlier feats, so will I.

She is able to again as I said snap second conjure ice within seconds in any shape she deems necessary 

Proof and no, the ice mirror from P4A doesn’t count.

Non persona users can’t see persona (one guy remakes on how he sees a silhouette but only cause he’s standing next to her, another character natsuki walks into a battle and can’t see the others persona from the distant she’s at.

And yet in Persona 4 Yosuke reacts to seeing Yu’s Persona awakening.

Her persona Artemisia has a whip that can reach long distances and instantly freeze her opponents, she can also make floating and homing projectiles.

A. That whip thing: proof

And B. Only in Arena which you pick and choose which to use.

Mitsuru herself is remarked as moving faster than the eye can react when others watch her fight her shadow, this is also reflected in her normal combots where she moves faster than the eye can see and can hit a person over 15 times (don’t believe me? watch her combo video)

https://youtu.be/fw-2yn_vKG0

Pretty sure the same thing happened in CTB with Weiss-Point is?

And at one point while fighting naoto a person with a gun who is also a persona user is able to disarm and disable in two fluid motions.

Disarm who? When? under what circumstances? Also a gun shoulding matter if Mitsuru can tank nukes right?

Need I stress mitsuru is incredibly smart, she has to run a magic C.I.A and outsmart a bunch of idiotic men in suits who think she can’t handle it, and had to at one point outsmart detective naoto, which is a feat in itself.

https://sokumotanaka.tumblr.com/post/185075529807

A. She runs it with help

B. You said ‘idiotic’

and C. Your post proves nothing

Weaknesses:

Fire is mitsuru’s weakness and while that sounds like an easy solution remember when weiss’s weapon starts burning with fire, mitsuru is either gonna back off, or disarm her.

That being said it’s her only weakness.

She also has average agility, less versatility, unreliable versatility, no debuffs or buffs aside from Mind Charge, limited mobility, a reliance on her Persona for big attacks and Mitsuru is never shown disarming someone so thee fire weakness is still major point. Especially by P3 standards which would cause her to be dazed and buy Weiss time.

That might seem bogus as being it but mitsuru has a lot of “human” weaknesses that won’t come into the death battle.

as a fight she is the superior, not just because I prefer her but because she’s been doing this longer and has to manage a fighting lifestyle and being a normal woman dealing with people who probably think she’s breaking the law for speaking out of turn with them.

Like what? Are you afraid they’re gonna bring up how Mitsuru and other Persona users tire out in places where they can use their Personas?

Also most of what you said doesn't pertain to Death Battle.

Up’s:

(this here is the things each fighter has against the other in terms of the fight.)

Persona is invisible to weiss

Persona and her ice magic have the superior reach

Mitsuru is older and more experienced

Mitsuru is smarter as she was the tactician of a team while also juggling high school.

Wrong

Unproved

Unsubstainated and unreliable

Unproven

Great upsides

Weiss schnee:

Feats/abilities/skills:

Weiss on the other hand doesn’t have much going for her. (let’s list these first)

Weiss’s semblance

Weiss’s fire dust (albeit finite)

Weiss’s speed glyph

Ignored how her glyphs can be used to leap and jump in air

Ignored how fast her glyphs can make her (stunning Flynt)

Ignored her Wind, Ice and Earth dusts

Ignored her Time Glyph which gave Blake the ability to slice lazer beams in order to cut down missiles in mid flight (outlier feat I know but has that stopped Soku?)

Ignored her Armor Gigas which is shown to be incredibly durable and powerful, slicing apart a Grimm that tanked several boxes of Dust exploding on it without a scratch

Ignored her Queen Lancer giving her projectile attacks, aerial mobility and backup

Ignored her Ice Wall which historically held the stringer of a complex sized scorpion in place for several minutes.

Wow you ignored a lot.

Weaknesses:

Weiss drops her weapon, alot, it happens often.

When weiss is surprised, she freezes up

weiss doesn’t have the experience to fight off mitsuru.

weiss hasn’t fought against opponents on mitsuru’s level or fought against gods/god tier monsters.

Example

Example

Unproven

Neither has Mitsuru

Up’s:

Fire dust

Speed glyph

Summon size change.

And the stunning coming from Fire Dust

And The ice wall giving her a time borrowing option

And the Armor Gigas being stronger physically

And The Queen Lancer being agile, flying and having built inprojectiles

And her Time Glyph giving her a powerful ranged option

And her glyphs giving her far greater mobility

And her speed glyphs giving her a blitz option.

Funny how if you explain shit and pay attention, you see things are actually very even. But hey, Soku’s never been honest when it comes to RWBY so why start now?

Real talk?

Weiss in her one on one fights has lost to all her opponents. White fang lieutenant, Flynt, And Vernal.

All powerful close range combatants. Something Mitsuru is not.

The third whom I must stress is a normal bandit, she doesn’t summon things herself, use magic, she’s not a god trapped in a human body, she’s just a normal woman, and she beats weiss down, while weiss struggles to get afoot and she loses this bout as well.

Let's just ignore how vernal is technically stronger than a complex sized scorpion and was posing as a demigod at the time....

Now I know it seems like I’m only glossing over negatives, which I must stress I’m not doing out of dislike, I took a deep dive-

Bullshit. One look at Persona then RWBY shows you doing the bare minimum for RWBY while giving Mitsuru the best versions of all her elements.

For example super and goku one which has insane feats that the other will never reach, hench each one literally ending with clark winning.

superman just has feats that are too insane.

Superman lifted infinity. Mitsuru help weaken one giant Shadow that was aid to be strong enough to destroy a mountain and yet it's strength stat is weaker than Junpeis. (And before you complain about me using gameplay on a supposed non gameplay feat-Erebus HAS NO non gameplay feats.)

They are nowhere compatible, even in the comparison range.

Weiss can kick some grimm ass, but we’ve yet to see her have a decisive victory against an opponent single combat.

where as we get to see/play (depending on weather you read the manga or play both arena/ultimax (both are canon because it’s the same thing but contextualized as a comic) mitsuru fights people with the same skill as her and comes out on top.

A. By the same standards, Mitsuru is in the same boat as Weiss

B. You’re using Arena as your line for feats but not moveset (or even consistently as feats since you still quote P3)/

And C. Np she didn’t. The investigation team is LESS experienced than Weiss so logically they’d be easier if we accepted your interpretation.

The winner should be Mitsuru with all due respect.

And yet you feel the need to lie about Mitsuru and completely gloss over and lowball Weiss.

God, now i’m scared because not only does this scream ‘Ben and Chad, do as I say or else’ but since you’re lying, it makes it seem like Weiss will WIN in a fair fight.

Word of warning Soku: I will tear you verbally into shreds if you so much as glare at Ben and Chad. And god help you if Dudeblade recognizes your bullshit.

Thoughts on Mitsuru?

HOO BOY this is a question. I have many many thoughts on Mitsuru because like I love her as we all know but for this I’ll actually talk about her Personas because I noticed something about them recently! Spoilers for P3.

So Penthesilea. Great persona for Mitsuru. But I was looking at her mask and I noticed how it completely covers her face. And like this represents how Mitsuru has huge difficulty trusting others (noted by her dad and honestly given her backstory who can blame her). And another thing I noticed was the distinct lack of red on Penthesilea. Red is a color that’s very much associated with Mitsuru so it seems weird that it wouldn’t be on her Persona. My reasoning for this is that it’s because she’s very guarded in nature and as I said doesn’t trust others easily.

Then her persona evolves into Artemisia. And Artemisia has a red mask that covers half her face. Which is like symbolic of Mitsuru finally learning to trust others and also willing to open up to others. It’s still half covering her face because like she’s still not fully comfortable trusting others but it shows that she’s learning and I just love that? It’s a small detail but holds a lot of meaning if you really thinking about it. And of course you know it was Yukari who she truly opened up to first and I think that’s very epic and gay.
