It's kinda weird that Mitsuru sings "Wiping All Out" when there's a perfectly good FemC right there

[@UltimateChaosForce]

I think it's because the mitsuru actor already have it practiced down

[@firewolf950tfwgaming7]

That and when they do the Sakuya iteration of the play, they would still need someone to perform it.

[@exiaedges]

With the recent release of Portable in multiple platform, the protagonist FEMC's official name is reveal as Kotone Shiomi, the same name that was first use in this play. The male protagonist's official name on the other hand is from the movie adaptation. The movie itself is consider to be the second best way after games to enjoy Persona 3's story. Considering the limitation of the PSP and budget, there was no anime cutscene of FEMC. She has a voice actress, but actress only spoke in combat when summoning her personas. Out of the two protagonist, she describe as the more lively and the only form of portrayal for the character was toward the text dialogue. Because her personality, she would have benefited more if her dialogue was voice or have anime adaptation. Before Persona Q2, the stage play is the closest to an anime adaptation for FEMC and with the limited option of adaptation of FEMC is in, this is one of the best way to enjoy the character, and I can see why Altus decided to use those names as the default names in the re-release.

Marina Inoue a seiyuu with a beautiful voice.

[@sakurakaslana8716]

Her JP VA does voice her in Drama CD as well

[@sakurakaslana8716]

I like the early Kotone's personality here is mixed between her own fake cheerful personality and anime Makoto "I don't care" Yuki

[@mambo1062]

I THINK I CAN SPEAK FOR EVERYONE WHEN I SAY WE LOVE YOU AHHH THANKS FOR THIS 💖✨💖💕💕

[@phoenixmaiika]

You're welcome!

[@ianstudio1330]

I love that the FeMC version is here too. I started to like her character in PQ and now I need all of the content about her. CANON-CHANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

[@kuroinova2056]

There a cd drama for her, should be somewhere on KZbin

[@ianstudio1330]

35:59 BOI-- Ya can't mistreat Yukari like that Junpei! She's a pretty cool girl too xDD

[@phoenixmaiika]

I know right! She's so pretty and fun, I don't know why Junpei's complaining xD

[@EM10gamer]

Maybe he’s just come from “The Answer“ arc *shudders*

[@elisa-fr8pv]

This was so fun to watch! Thank you so much for uploading this and even with subs! ♥♥ Also can you imagine the gay panic I felt at 39:36 lmao

[@phoenixmaiika]

You're welcome, I'm glad you enjoyed

[@astralbirthvoid]

i know this comment was 3 years ago but holy shit i just experienced the exact same thing it's driving me crazy

[@deadspace4755]

Thank you for the English subtitles(31:24 me after l realized the video exists) my congratulations to everyone that took part to it, l can't say no more,the action alone speaks for everything. However that line " l don't care about it" it's trademarked, nice detail though. Both protagonists are destined to use that line.

[@phoenixmaiika]

if you meant "everyone that took part in producing these subs" then it's only me, I did everything myself :) they say "I don't care/it doesn't matter" so many times that I just had to trademark it and I'm really happy that everyone loves that ;D

[@SenhorCabra]

How ironic that Mitsuru was charmed.

[@xecillmaze4740]

I've been hoping to somehow find a way to watch the Persona 3 plays even without subs-- cause I wasn't really expecting anyone to translate a whole play and that's understandable. BUT MAN YOU ACTUALLY DID IT. WOW That's so cool of you, I'm pretty late on discovering this but thank you so much for translating and sharing this. You deserve a whole lot more views and thanks!

[@scar432]

WHY DOES THIS WORK AS GOOD AS IT DOES

all i can say is ur a good person for posting this

Thank you :D I love her too, in P3 Portable I always play as FeMC xD

"Some things just exist in this world, that's why i didn't care about it..." Xd

[@james.ken_dama167]

I don't know how I never saw this until now. Thank you so much as always for taking the time to sub these!

[@GlitchpunkRebel]

Thank you so much for this! I pray we can get the other Persona stage plays subbed too!

[@phoenixmaiika]

I'll do my best to translate the other plays too!

[@ac-gf4zt]

I’m watching two years late following the switch port, but still, thank you so much!!! I can’t imagine how long this took!

[@Hope-og3ei]

I am so extremely happy to see you upload this video as female route version and I love it as amazing video. I continue to support you due to you are only one can upload Pesona Stage. I will be waiting for you as upload the next one.

[@ianstudio1330]

38:18 Why did you get in Tartarus to just get charmed, Mitsuru-senpai xDDDD!!!????

[@phoenixmaiika]

my guess is cause she doesn't fight in the first 2 months of gameplay + they needed to give her a song somehow xD

[@ianstudio1330]

@@phoenixmaiika xDDD I guess being a navi reduces your skill in fighting huh Mitsuru-senpai xDDDD

[@phoenixmaiika]

@@ianstudio1330 Yeah, even in game she's like "I haven't fought for so long that my skills are rusty, but don't worry, I'll get back to my previous form soon" XDDD

[@geraxoxo]

THANK YOU VERY MUCH! I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW THANK YOU THANK YOU ❤❤❤

[@tuturuu5415]

I just woke up and saw this popped in my notification! Thank you for the upload, this already made my day! 😆❤❤ So Kotone's personality is close to Sakuya's... I thought she'd be more expressive but I guess that's just how I feel about her 😂 Kana Asumi's (Kotone's actress) act was pretty good I guess, but the awakening scene was kind of bland when it's supposed to be trilling 🤔

[@tuturuu5415]

Also it's obvious they paired Akihiko and Mitsuru so Kotone can have Shinjiro... I don't know how I feel about that 😂 I like HamuxAki but I never saw MitsuruxAki's relationship as romantic 😅

[@phoenixmaiika]

I thought about messaging you on Twitter, but in the end I didn't xD and now I'm glad I kept it as a surprise :'D also thank you for turning the notifications on 🥺🥺 Yeah.. The fact that I went with "I don't care" led to a very.. interesting.. line in Part 2 😂😂 it cracks me up Who's Hamu? XD

[@phoenixmaiika]

I also love how Kotone looks absent-minded most of the time (and on the other hand Sakuya talks in pout the whole time xD), it further underlines the emotional emptiness ^^

[@tuturuu5415]

@@phoenixmaiika What? Whose line? No wait, don't give me spoiler 😂 Oh, Hamu is short for Hamuko. It's how fans called Kotone before the stage play was made 😆 either that or Minako, but in the west Minako is more popular

[@phoenixmaiika]

@@tuturuu5415 You'll see when I upload it XDDDDD ahh, I see! I like Kotone a lot more, it's the only name for FeMC to me :D Minako makes me think of Sailor Moon :P and Hamu just sounds like a hamster lmao

If I may ask, Kotone really did the romance scene to others guys or she not? Please tell me guys, I'm really curious for real this time 🥺😭

[@ramify7064]

Hi there! I was just wondering if it was okay to use your english translation as a basis to translate this into another language? Of course full credit would be given back to you (I say basis as it’s simply not possible to directly translate everything, as I’m sure you know). I can’t say I would ever subtitle the the play with the translation based on yours, but if I did I would absolutely credit and link back to your videos and twitter account. I wanted to make sure it’s okay before starting, as I know how long it must’ve taken to translate this originally and you deserve so much credit for doing it - because it’s amazing. I hope you have a good day!

[@phoenixmaiika]

Hello! I'm sorry it took me so long to reply to you. Of course you can use my translation as a basis to translate it into another language (what language is it?). I'd really appreciate it if you also posted the link to my kofi page together with the links to my videos (you can find it in the description), maybe there'd be some kind souls in your community who could support my work financially as well :). And when you finish your translation, please send me the link to it on Twitter, I'd love to watch it as well :D

[@ramify7064]

@@phoenixmaiika I have to apologise for taking awhile to respod aswell, I understand being busy now that college has started ^^'. I'd be translating it into Irish, but I can't say it'll be done anytime soon due to school, but I'll definitely include a link to your kofi and send you the link when it's done!!

It might be because you are more used to the game. If it becomes so much take some pause. It might help
