On the topic of persona friendships i will also die on the hill of Akira and Yosuke being friends. Mostly Yosuke being a big brother figure for him. Also i really really like the Akira(Ren) being from inaba headcanon, it's a very lovely headcanon 😭 .
... as you probably understand by now i like most things related to persona 4. I know it's a little basic, but like come on. It's not my fault that my brain decided that p4 was gonna be the one i got the most attached to.

Who's the "real" me?
+ some references for the Rise-related things I included <3
#im reaaaally happy with this one hehe i had fun putting the stuff from different things shes had/worn#i feel like ppl overlook the massive identity crisis & the accompanying depression & internal conflict rise is going through during the gam#like shes trying to figure out who she is seperate from her idol image (which she constantly still clings to despite her insistance that sh#s done with it bc she does still crave that recognition and attention she got from that position. she literally breaks down crying when her#manager tells her kanami has taken her acting role and is more-or-less set to take her spot now)#and then she also struggles with finding what she wants to do with herself now that she doesnt have showbiz to worry about#i think she kinda unintentionally uses the investigation as an anchor for her to hold onto#something to keep her busy in the absence of the hustling idol life#and then she also like. again she keeps clinging to the idol image and the associated bubbly-ness and bold flirtation#because thats the ''her'' ppl liked#i dont think the way she acts during the game is ENTIRELY an act theres definitely a lot of her true self in it too#but she does have a lot of moments where she leans more heavily into the bubbly & flirty cutie act#her sl shows that for all that she wanted to retire from showbiz she isnt really ready just yet#bc she did actually enjoy being an idol. she did enjoy being able to reach out to people in this way & to finally have ppl like & accept he#the problem is she doesnt know who ''she'' is at this point#im rambling but u get my point. yeah. yeah#rise..............#rise kujikawa#persona#persona 4#p4#art#my art#xanders art#digital art#fan art

Randomly had the idea of, in the far, far flung future, Atlus releases like, Persona 17 or something, and I keep coming up with random absurd things about the game (and other things for this bizarre world where new Persona games never stop coming out)
P17's main color is light beige, they used up all the colorful colors by Persona 15
The main concept for P17's "other world" is based on some obscure, loose metaphor a psychologist used for the human subconscious one time, they had ran out of smart, semi-sensical metaphors by like, Persona 10
^ A friend of mine suggested that the "other world" be sandwich themed because a totally real psychologist compared the layers of mental instability to the layers of a sandwich (and to make the excuse that the main color represents the bread)
^^ The Velvet Room is a Subway
There are like 17 Social Stats to increase, they can only be ranked up like once or twice each, but doing it for all of them is tough, especially since you don't know which you'll need to unlock what
They've made so many Personas based on mythology and fictional creatures and the like, that Altus started coming up with their own mythologies just so they could base more Personas off them
There are Social Links / Confidants for every tarot card arcana ever made, but they still needed more Social Links / Confidants, so Atlus had to start making up their own arcanas
P17 actually takes place over the course of 2-3 years, otherwise you wouldn't have enough time to complete all the content even at max efficiency
There are like 32 magic affinities / elements, and like 14 physical ones, each party member commonly specializes in 2-3 magic affinities / elements, as well as a different physical affinity / element
The mascot character is like, an aardvark or something, it has no relation to anything in the game and it's kinda obvious that Atlus is just running out of popular animals to make into mascots
By popular demand, the P17 protag is finally bisexual, have fun trying to date all 50+ romance-able characters in the game, you asked for this
A deluxe version with even more content somehow is in development, get ready for Persona 17 Toasted a couple years after P17 releases
Speaking of rereleases, "Reload"s of previous Persona games have become somewhat of a standard, Altus has said Persona 13 Regrown (P13 is plant-themed) is nearing completion
There are rumors that P17 will have a spin-off that plays like a 3D Collect-a-Thon Platformer, mostly because it's one of the few genres of games the Persona series hasn't tried out in a spin-off yet
On the topic of spin-offs, the Persona Q games have lost their goddamn mind, each game still includes the groups from all of the previous Persona games as well as the group from the most recent Persona game at the time, Q14 literally has like over a hundred party members you can use, it's insanity
Thank you for joining me on this delve into complete Persona-themed stupidity, and I hope you're as hyped for Persona 17 as I am
#persona#persona 5#persona 3#persona 4#c!'s rambles#how do I even tag this#hopefully it's pretty obvious#but this is all just a stupid joke#I'm not trying to imply any of this should be in future Persona games or something#also apologies if I got any terminology wrong or something#despite liking this series I haven't actually played any entries besides a bit of Q2

persona misogyny is so fucking wild. ignoring literally everything else about the entire rest of the games, every single s.link with a female character is like “entirely for having been born a woman i have had to work twice as hard for a fraction of the benefit. even now, i am stripped of my agency in a position i never wanted in the first place” and/or “i’m put on a pedestal by the people in my life because of my looks. men see me as an object to be conquered, women hate me for ‘stealing’ ‘their’ men. if i’m withdrawn i’m a bitch, if i’m friendly i’m easy. because of this, i’m alone” and/or “because of my personality or hobby or lack of cooking skills, i feel like i’m failing at femininity. if being a woman is something i can fail at, then where does that leave me? i’m scared at the loss of my identity and place in society”
like very consistently they present female characters with complex thoughts towards their place in society as women, femininity as a whole, and facing issues stemming from misogyny, and then the payoff is always “my problems were entirely my own fault. i wasn’t strong enough, i was a coward. but now, i’m gonna work hard to be exactly what society expects me to be (which is what i want to be)! i’m gonna do better at femininity (which is still something tangible i can fail at)! i’m going to try hard at making friends (which was my fault for not doing)! all my problems are solved through personal responsibility (that im totally culpable for), effort (which i previously was not putting in), or you, a man! i am Happy and Satisfied with this outcome, can i be Your woman?”
and like hello? why are we here. what the fuck are we doing. why do we keep doing this every single time. can we not do the constant lukewarm attempts at criticizing misogyny so you can jerk off to your own thoughtfulness, while ultimately reinforcing patriarchal systems and brushing off any deeper misogyny-bred issues as a lack of deference to one’s rightful place in society? like maybe don’t do that? for fucking once? just an idea
#i’d really need to rewatch slinks to give more indepth thoughts or pull specific examples#but i’m right and i pace about it every day#i’m not really talking about naoto that’s a whole other can of worms a long way down the line#rambles#if persona’s all about wish fulfillment where’s my persona game where i can be a feminist huh#p4g posting#p3p posting#yeah both of those. i’m not far enough in p4 to have seen the payoff but i know that its fucking persona 4#and jesus christ yukiko!! i only vaguely know of ai. chie in the main story/dialogue options you have#jesus christ the dialogue options. can you ask literally every girl if they have a boyfriend?? and ‘thats very feminine’ DIE#and man p3p. persona main plot misogyny is weird when you’re on the other side of it#it’s a very different experience being the one getting peeped on#and goddd of course the. everything else. i’m not touching on. main plot misogyny and inherent writing stuff and etc etc etc etc etc etc et#GOD.#persona is hell

Hi hello your self aware Yosuke au is so brainworms <3. Have you had any thoughts about him in relation to the Nametame bad end? (I think far too much abt Yosuke in regards to that one lol)
Thank you!! hope the brainworms will still have anything left remaining inside ur head <3333
And yes, I had been thinking how self-aware Yosuke would primarily have his place put into the main story of the game. So with Namatame bad end, or whatever outcomes you've chosen for the sakes of it -- I just thought of two situations:
One: His ass will ruin the immersive dramatic moment of the game and start throwing unsubtle hints to help the player get into the good ending, or: No hints at all! He throws off a brushed comment that you still have full control on playing the game. He might help you cheat on dungeon exploring or which options gain additional points - but thats the gist of it! He could not care less if your options lead to morally questionable means - its a video game. Yet he and the player are no better examples
... although choosing the accomplice ending may get a different reaction from him ;;;;
#id also like to think this expanded more on AI Yosuke's awareness in this game to be#quite lonely for him. He doesn't exactly remember when he gained consciousness - but he knew from the start that he never started out as 'Y#but rather a corrupted ai gone haywire#wearing its host in return.#cal asks#persona 4#rambles with callix#souyo#I<3U AU#my art#cal art

What silly individuals. Goofy even. Almost pathetic but in an endearing way. They do seem trust worthy enough. I bet they don’t make much of an impact in the third act of the game in an antagonistic way at all. We can trust them. They’re silly after all.

There’s a joke in the Persona fandom about people who say “these games changed my life,” but hear me out for a sec. During the three times I’ve picked up a Persona game, I did get a new outlook from each one.
I played 5 when I was a young teen and hiding my identity, desperate to fit in. I was also becoming aware of—and angry about—social injustices.
I played 4 when I was a bit older and trying to accept the parts of me I was ashamed of. I was also befriending a lot of new and different people.
I played 3 a few months ago after a period of loss, letting myself feel everything without stifling it. I was also learning how to open my heart to friends and family.
I’ve grown as a person while internalizing the messages of these games. 5 reminds me to embrace non-conformity, 4 to be honest with myself and others, and 3 to live life to the fullest. They’re not perfect games, and I’m still nerdy for loving them as much as I do, but the right timing made them important to me!
