1:05 - Haru, Makoto and Futaba aren't joining in the ice-skating not because they're intel-gathering badasses, but because of their backgrounds, they never got the chance to learn how to ice-skate.

[@superwonderbat2783]

Why would anyone think Haru was info gathering? She was just sucking on a lollipop she probably got from her own company stock line

[@NanoIsCringe23]

Why is she so close to the monitors just to back up to type Like.. "hmm... yes.. cat..."

[@moonwalkerangel7008]

SPOILER ALERT: That does make a lot of sense, Futaba was a shut in for the majority of her life, apart from her childhood and even then her mum never spent a lot of time with her. With Makoto, she lost both of her parents when she was young and with Haru, her father did not want her to do anything that would affect the Okumura name.

What else do you guys expect from a Persona game? Persona games just seem like they are pretty well made games overall. And this game was about what I thought that it would be,but in a really good way. I always seem to have high expectations for Persona games and they ALWAYS just seem to deliver the goods. And they even seem to deliver some goods that I wasn't even expecting them to either as well. I just really have to hand it to the people who make the Persona series. I wouldn't mind seeing them do a spin off of the main game that followed Elizabeth some more (besides what you saw in the Persona Arena games). In her journey(s) to find a way to free the Persona 3 MC Minato,WITHOUT breaking the seal on the door he is currently sealing shut as well in the process. And during those journey(s) she also gets more real world experience as well. And she sees how things actually work and she also learns even more about the outside world outside the velvet room and about the people in it. All of this helping her to grow at least a little bit more as a person,by the spinoffs end. She could also have some funny mishaps along the way also,as per the Elizabeth norm. It could be set between the time she left the Velvet Room to before what happened in the Persona Arena games and then what happened after them as well. That could prove at least slightly interesting in my opinion.

How do they use Black and dark colours without making it edgy. Amazing.

[@OneTrueWindfall]

Because this intro is pure class, and class overpowers edge 9 out of 10 times

[@VariableZero]

Music Master not only that, but the intro doesn’t rely on heavy brooding as everyone in the intro showcases who they are as characters through movements of grace and environmental interaction (as well as the main four Phantom Thieves expressing feelings of joy during the run time of the intro). The black seen on the characters don’t entirely take up their wardrobe (except for joker, but he’s classy af anyway). Plus, the color palette of greys and blacks are nicely broken up and distributed by the red background which is the game’s thematic color.

[@mysticknight1494]

[@notsofunny9651]

1:05 I always found this part of the trailer weird at least when it comes to Haru. The opening does a good job at showing you a peak of everyone’s personality, Futaba is working hard on the computer, Yusuke is painting with all his might, Makoto is paying close attention and writing down notes, etc. But Haru in the other hand is eating junk food with a layback face sitting unladylike, giving a feeling of laziness or I don’t care vibes which is the completely opposite of her character. I think it would have been better if she was sitting well mannered drinking some tea with a happy calm face. ...Am I the only one who finds this strange? 🤔

[@xk_monster]

Haru and Mokoto were last minute additions in development.

[@kacperthegamer4556]

Haru was supposed to be a dude at first

[@themonkeyman2910]

Honestly, don’t really care. She looks cute, is all that matters.

[@fabiteo1960]

My personal theory is that It represents her rejecting her family's tradutions, which she has been known to do. Like her room for example not being fancy in P5D, Ryuji even says he didn't think it would look so normal. I think it just goes to show how much she hated the Okumura lifestyle. I hope that cleared some things up, and hey at the end of the day It's just a theory

[@Pankypops]

@@S0UPIE this intro shows the characters' personalities more than the p5r intro just highlights yoshizawa. also destroying buildings doesn't make sense for the original persona 5 because the real mission of phantom thieves is to fix the world, not ruin a cognitive world single-handedly created by a school psychiatrist. in the end, both intros are meant to tell what phantom thieves of hearts will do at the game.

This one does better at showing off the first half of the thieves (up till Yusuke) whereas royal does a good job showing everyone with a decent amount of time per character (with Kasumi being the exception due to her role in 3rd semester). Musically both are good so I can’t really pick a better one. Visually both are stunning. This one nails the minimalistic style whilst Royal is better at using the environment to give each character depth. Also how it has more colour as a result of the characters creating the colour (ie breaking the buildings whilst Kasumi’s scene is still very minimalistic)
