[ENG SUBS] Boss Shadow Kiuchi - Persona 5 The Phantom X

[@Juno__Music]

“We have the Kamoshida arc at home”

[@gethlight7432]

holy shit, that made my day xDDD

[@jsphn2008]

Too lazy to animate the second phase, have fun reading.

[@hollyhills657]

It’s not really the same thing thing though. Kiuchi isn’t sexually harassing Mohota he just hates her guts cause his career took a nosedive after she hit a home run against him at age 6

[@jsphn2008]

@@hollyhills657 But they also re-used the same object Ann was chained to for the dungeon.

[@hollyhills657]

I’m not denying there’s a similarity or two but I kinda get sick of people calling it a “carbon copy” just because some of these theives’ battles are similar. Personally, I see the similar look as being a result of each boss embodies a certain vice more than others, which gives the, a certain appearance aesthetic. For example, Madarame and Himoru are both extremely vain, which causes them both to gain appearances similar to a Noble shogun. Kamoshida is obviously a perverted sexual harasser, hence lust, and while Kiuchi seems better fit for Wrath at first glance, he is also revealed to have issues with women and acting in a way that led him to be accused of being a sexual harasser by them, leading him to also be representative of Lust and gaining a underwear wearing love themed look like Kamoshida.

[@IMRo444]

My mind is trying so hard not to think of this as a 4kids version of Persona 5

[@fireorb2]

Well the censorship of some of the demons certainly doesn't help.

[@crimsondragoon8197]

Too late

[@LaCantinadeltarlo]

The choice of creating a mirror boss to Kamoshida to make a direct comparison between two similar contexts approached differently is interesting. Curious if the second boss will be related to the world of art or artist

[@TheDeisasori]

Considering the theme of the game in Qooapp is about a lack of desire, which itself is the opposite theme of Ren's journey, I welcome the parallel angle of the bosses, if this one is any indication. However, I feel the need to scratch my head at the music change during the transformation read. This boss fight could have been better too with voice acting and proper animation. Especially in regards to the VA, it's already there in the earlier parts of the story. Will they improve this in the final game? We can only wait and see.

[@ultraspinalki11]

It's a cell phone game. Why would they invest money in paying actors to say all the lines for a free to play game?

[@TheDeisasori]

Action Taimanin have it in the main story and intimacy events. That game is very friendly to free players too, might I add.

[@emilio9912]

​@@ultraspinalki11 well is part of the story like Genshin only the Main plot or some events have voice lines Then why not here, maybe the va get incluided later

[@infernaldisdain8051]

@@ultraspinalki11 because High production values can increase both shelf life and profit of the game. We also know the game is really unfinished and the beta was a beta not only for the online but for the game in general. Even if they were going to launch like this, going by the interview that was released after the end it seems like they got enough feedback about this to address this specifically.

[@BuffMaister]

Kamoshida 2.0, this whole game is just a re-hash of the original P5 with character swaps.

[@felipebisi4145]

Does it actually bring anything new to the table ? Or is it just the Persona 5 five at home ? Because for a Phone game i rather just keep at Dx2 if you ignore the endless load screens

[@BuffMaister]

Other than characters and some new areas, this is just a P5 game thats remade with a same-ish story and Gacha $$$$$$$$$$. It wouldn't surprise me if the 2nd arc is actually a Madarame rip off about art. However, a lot more work went into this than Dx2.

[@ThatOneLegendEmerald]

It's still a lazy rehash in my book tbh :/ As someone who's favorite character of all time is Morgana, they didn't even *try* to make the new mascot unique in the slightest from them. EDIT: He uses Tonfa Sticks instead of greatswords but still does and up and down motion when attacking, the gun is unique, and the mech is actually pretty cool but....they use fire instead of wind and are still a healer :/

[@geniusgamerr4517]

Though i think this Igor in this game is normal igor, because his personality like the one from persona 3 and 4 but with Jiraiya voicing. So its not yaldy

[@chrisdixon7377]

… there’s something off about all this. Why do they have to have to force the treasure out with that phone? I know people are saying it’s just Komoshida again, but I can’t help but wonder if there’s a reason for that…

[@orrthehunter]

I am curious as well since the P5 writers did help with making this game's story. The theme for P5X is "Finding your way in life" which is why the Velvet room is represented by a Aquarium due to how it represents the Sea of Souls still lost in life about what they want to do so they go with the flow in society. The Tutorial chapter story represent this a bit with the first boss being a person who had a dream as a baseball player but he lost his dream and ended up becoming just like the majority and went with the flow in life by getting a mundane job as a Salaryman (most of the time in anime/manga represents people who just given into the collective mass of people who have no dreams in life). Though his dream is given a new path now he knows that his past being a Baseball player did inspire others to become Baseball players as well. The P5X MC himself is also someone who has not found his way in life yet which is why his reaction to the world is mundane since he is just going with the Flow of human society like the majority who still do not know what to do with their life or had their dreams crushed already.

[@vanessachowjiaying4423]

​@orrthehunter kind of prefer that route in narrative instead of a copy-paste of the mainline. Wonder was meant to be the polar opposite of Ren/Joker, though they have similar roles in their respective worlds/stories.

[@masterseal0418]

​@@orrthehunter And if this game releases worldwide, then we might be wrong.

[@orrthehunter]

@@masterseal0418 well I already explain the general theme of the story and what happens in tutorial chapter. Main story wise the game is taking a different path from P5 due to its theme about "finding your way in life" so it is not the same story as P5. We just do not know how will this theme be expanded on later after tutorial chapter.

[@dewi2658]

@@orrthehunter Find your way in life? This sounds lika a slice of life anime story that has no weight. I think "Lack of Desire" has been done in Persona 3 with the apathy syndrome, a more interesting take in my opinion.

I get it's a mobile game and a spinoff...but it feels weird having a P5 styled confrontation with a Palace Ruler, but the dialogue isnt voiced. Also why are some sound effects missing 😅

[@reddishcarp1237]

It's Closed Beta, probability haven't recorded the dialogue yet

Don't ever cry over the memory storage if you expecting a full voiced dialogue.

[@urameshitrev1851]

@@renvesbullock1852 Not saying the whole game has to be voiced, I just feel the main story events like the confrontion with "Not Kamoshida" here could benefit from it. But it's not the full release, so maybe something they are patching in later.

[@wolvenwolfdogservices]

tbh I like this more than Kamoshida,probably cuz I understand Kiuichi,and I like how the cheerdancers are kinda in sync with the music. Since this is in beta,idk how they could change this in the official release,a bit too identical to Kamoshida"s boss fight. I wonder how this one gets difficult? Maybe progression,I like what I see but it's lacking identity to be it's own mobile spin-off

[@vanessachowjiaying4423]

From setup, the narrative presentation is Royal and Strikers combined. We at least got a better idea of the Palace Ruler's reason of distortion, plus Kiuichi being a victim of accusations is similar to the Jail Wardens' situation in Strikers. The last part of atoning their sins in a more gentle and encouraging manner, similar to the Jail Wardens' change of heart.

[@funninoriginal6054]

The thing that made the Kamoshida arc good is that he was incredibly hateable and you coudn't understand him at all. This is just Kamoshida but worse.

[@infernaldisdain8051]

​​@@funninoriginal6054 You can understand a character and that character can still be reprehensible. Heck, the fact a character can be understood might make him more reprehensible if the magnitude of his actions in comparison to what motivates those actions makes them look petty and disproportionate EDIT: Not to mention that at least the Phantom Thieves were supposed to be reforming the villains they fight, even if through brainwashing. It would be good to see if they have at least the capacity for good for that to be more believable

@@reddishcarp1237 When the first arc is literally the Kamoshida arc with a worse written antagonist, no school expulsion to give weight to not changing his heart within a certain deadline, and Ryuji and Ann rolled into 1 character (Closer) that was able (at 6 years old) hit a home run pitched by Kiuchi causing his career to end? When they're recycling dungeons when there's a whole other sequel with fresh dungeons (sans Mementos). They couldn't even be bothered to make cutscene animations for Closer stealing the treasure or Kiuchi turning into his "Sin" form. You can enjoy having your wallet emptied all you like, but this is Persona with no soul whether you like it or not.

[@slimballs9650]

I will say, the victory animations look WAY better than P5's, especially that finger snap!

[@dethkruzer]

This game is so painfully poor. They just use the music willy nilly with no consideration for the mood. This is just Kamoshida without that small fleck of charm the original shadow had.
