Persona 3 Reload Opening actually makes sense in reverse...

[@Daichi777]

1:30 My boy Makoto is trying to make the Moonwalk

[@ValetinoLovebird]

Boy needs to practice to cope up with Nozomi

[@vladyugay64]

It's moonwalk again. Crazy how time flies

[@noxxiaa]

@@vladyugay64one might wonder, if my walk is in the right direction

[@masterseal0418]

​@@ValetinoLovebird Hell fucking yes

[@PicaroAnimations]

Ah yes my favorite thing about door-kun, his moon walk

[@hamsterhamster6492]

yeah Nozomi was trying to learn it in the meaning of life trailer 😅

[@SSSoukaa]

don't really understand since I didn't play the og but saw this joke a lot haha. can't pin because this channel in poor condition, ytb doesnt allow xD

[@PicaroAnimations]

@@SSSoukaa I'm gonna assume you finished the game if not just know this is a spoiler. In the answer, it's revealed Makoto used his soul to essentially act as a barrier ( a door) between Nyx and Erebus which is a being created by humanity's desire for death. Every modern persona game in some way has to deal with Humanity's desire so maybe in one future game, they find a way to change all of their desires so Makoto can be set free.

[@whitebutterflyfingersofcolour]

Well the theme of P3 is the moon after all

[@yeretyer6125]

Full moon walk

[@_hollowsky]

yes riding a motorcycle backwards makes so much sense

[@jakariashafin1695]

I mean aside from that it's near perfect.

[@MrFreakHeavy]

Because the motorcycle working on a hidden hour between each day thay stops all electronics from working makes more sens-- nvm, it does.

[@drunknbard2807]

Actually Of you look at it in a different perspective. It does. Like as if it's zooming in on her and then out. Camera faster than the bike go brrr

[@SSSoukaa]

@@drunknbard2807 cool explanation

[@sRtAoIrNm]

@@drunknbard2807 except the street lights give it away, the motorcycle is clearly moving backwards.

[@barbiemary67]

0:55 the reverse head shots looked kinda cool as much as it looked a bit off from the rest. But THIS reverse head shot?? Absolutely the best part, I could believe it if someone showed this opening to me saying it was the official

[@easyscout8369]

The reverse Persona summon is so sick

[@Ramsey276one]

RELOADING!

[@raphathekid]

ANOSREP!

[@SSSoukaa]

it's time for Reload! btw if anyone has time pls support this smol channel!

[@raphathekid]

@@SSSoukaa Only if i gain a hug ;D

[@Persona4ever]

​@@SSSoukaa7k is NOT small 😭

[@jaapjrcgaming2718]

Junpei going from the most traumatic event in his life to being happy is kinda weird not gonna lie

[@JesterQueenAnne]

It makes a lot of sense given his character arc, which is incredible.

[@trots4940]

Well that's actually what kind of happen in the game lol

[@jairekambui7738]

Makoto floating through the air and then randomly doing a v position is the best thing ever to happen

[@aerodynamo4874]

Bro long jumped

[@whitebutterflyfingersofcolour]

Genius how they use a formula that makes the openings playable with different openings visuals and still looks good and can even be played in reverse

[@SSSoukaa]

the animation department deserves a raise

[@Rahnonymous]

P3P also can be watched upside down

[@whitebutterflyfingersofcolour]

@@Rahnonymous Exactly, another reason why 3 is my fav game of the series

[@Ostr0]

​@@whitebutterflyfingersofcolour 3 even has over 4 games related to it or basically a different variation of it too as well

[@CaptainSunFlare]

It's likely because the animations is made to he synced with the Beata if the music (or vice versa) and music is usually divided into a few equally sized sections. Opening edits, like this one, also tend to follow a fairly symmetrical structure too Still very cool tho!

[@caseyasher]

1:21 FeMC when she’s not in the remaster

[@Ostr0]

That's why the game is called Persona 3 FE

[@AhsokaSnipz]

I actually like the placement of the beginning at the end. It can be interpreted as Minato taking off the headset to pay attention to those around him.

[@Dinomight125]

'WAKE UP' - Koromaru in front of a gravestone 😅

[@12ww37]

Harsh 😂

[@Tsebastian-jt1cf]

apart from all the moon walking and reverse shooting, the opening still looks great in reverse

[@youth897]

Makoto reverse shoot is cool

[@tapioca2200]

The reverse shooting is actually kinda cool

[@evansage6363]

1:43 Casually moonwalks home

[@endieloe8972]

The Burn Your Dread part has to be intentional lol that fits so well

[@SSSoukaa]

yeah, I wonder who're they & what they said that part... btw if anyone has time pls support this smol channel!

[@bardock16yt]

​@ZaphkielPersona I'm pretty sure it's a reference to p2 and the rumor spreading. I hope it is for the most part

[@silveraxel510]

Watching the last part, continuing the moon walk, killed me😂😂

[@SSSoukaa]

it's his daily routine xD btw if anyone has time pls support this smol channel!

[@evandropoletto6362]

Dancing in moonlight reload confirmed? Door-kun MOONWALKING with the music.

[@teddychu1177]

There needs to be a mashup of P3/P4/P5 where it's a mass dance competition... Plus all the characters from P1 and P2, Because Mark/Masao needs to dance crazy

[@samwilkinson9309]

It is amazing how the things that aren't strictly 1 way like falling, walking, driving or shooting themselves look like they're perfectly normal and even then the shooting looks like you could pass that off as intended, some of it looks perfectly natural

[@SSSoukaa]

Ikr mb it's intended xD btw could friend support this channel

[@EditDeath]

Not sure why, but something about the Elizabeth and Igor part actually speaks to me more in reverse. I think it has something to do with the transition from the red spider lily into Igor, followed by the contract burning _into_ existence

[@Loguemaster123]

i see what your getting getting at and it works for most shots not all of them in my opinion but there are certain visuals that do hit harder for older fans when its in reverse

[@JesterQueenAnne]

Aigis opening her eyes instead of closing them, standing up instead of falling, the transition from Ryoji to Thanatos rather than the other way around, and Junpei going for shocked to smiling do in fact hit harder than in the regular OP if you've already played the third act of the game.

[@Axel-nu9qf]

Genuinely kinda like this more than the original, aside from the backwards moving parts. Makoto putting down the evoker and turning off his music also makes sense for his character progression, right? Man I'm ready for this game, I'm not gonna preorder it tho

[@sachadossantos7972]

I don't care

[@Eclipse_NT]

​@@sachadossantos7972Then go away

[@MorfsPrower]

Fuck the guy that commented just to make a non comment; I agree with you it's a cool dynamic. Also smart, preordering shouldn't be done anymore, just emboldens bad behavior from studios and publishers.

[@manoCOLDZERO]

I care

[@toasterfighter]

@@MorfsPrower its probably referencing door mans main dialogue option

[@Joueur_3030]

0:12 that actually works better than the original

[@Ostr0]

Ye

[@thecraftykingdomking7029]

Yes jumping out of a building in reverse makes a lot of sense

[@Clever_User_Name]

the part where it ramps up even happens in the same part of the video

[@SSSoukaa]

yeah btw which moment you like from the opening?

[@NahZD_]

Makoto Yuki became Micheal Jackson

[@akeshu77]

no cause like why does this give huge bad ending vibes, like everyone at the beginning was much more free, before dealing with the dark hour. so if that’s all erased, they’re basically back to how they were before. imagine choosing the bad ending and for ng+ on that save the opening plays in reverse

[@SSSoukaa]

yeah I remeber the scene from the movie. btw if anyone has time pls support this channel!

[@MidnitePanther]

Perfect for a game about Life, Death, and Rebirth

[@SSSoukaa]

check latest costume vid friend

[@Ostr0]

That's why it's the Persona Game with the most Variations

[@somerandomgamer9065]

I feel like it made perfect sense… until 0:39 then it lost all sense it had and it only made sense and looked good in a few short moments

[@morcatna4767]

1:50 Makoto out ther moon walkin *HEEE HEEE*

[@SSSoukaa]

hello Morgana! xD btw if anyone has time pls support this smol channel!

[@avpthegreat]

I wish they with something like this. The reverse headphones at the end was such a good move (besides the moonwalk)

[@いくよおいく]

逆再生にしたらなんか世界救われるけど全員がそれぞれを忘れる〜的なエンドになりそうに感じた

[@SSSoukaa]

だろね

[@quoy4]

1:26 It kinda looks like she's saying burn your dread to him.

[@rawdeia]

Door kun has officially cured suicide

[@onomee130]

In this multiverse, door-kun turns into makoto

[@JokerYuMakoto]

Now let's search for a hidden message listening to the music in reverse 😈👍

[@theadmiral4157]

Flies time how crazy, again moon full its

[@missasyan]

0:51 dude the velvet room key then turning into the flower representing death. kinda goin like “he never woulda become a guest/gotten these powers were he not destined to die (due to nyx being sealed in him)” ever since bro stepped in the velvet room and signed the contract he actually signed his own death warrant 😂

[@DjayT.]

1:39 it was all a dream Oh and I guess bro just chill like that with the moonwalk in the end

[@tomatoprincess2709]

Yeah it makes sense as long as you ignore all the parts where it doesnt

[@lilukara5953]

Damn the opening in reverse makes more sense than original... I like it much more now Especially the part with Mitsuru riding a bike and everyone else taking a ride on the train and lyrics is about journey 😭😭😭 DAMN THESE FEELS

[@SSSoukaa]

yeah! also they said this related to ending (I watched the movies so have a vague what it means xD).btw if anyone has time pls support this channel!

[@VBandit47]

OH MY GOD

[@SSSoukaa]

Hello Bandit!

[@plynkz]

actually the reverse shooting look very interesting

[@Ramsey276one]

RELOADING

[@Grandy12]

I think the video uploader has a difference definition of "makes sense" than I do

[@firebeam24]

Ah yes, Mitsuru driving backwards at top speed makes total sense

[@fenrir4538]

wow that's amazing even reverse that opening give other color

[@SSSoukaa]

ikr xD check latest costume vid friend

[@jhxe]

Imagine it's Persona 7 w/c takes place 100 years after Persona 3 and Makoto was freed from the door, helps the P7 MC with persona stuff (losing the wild card), becomes a temporary member until he retires into a guide NPC and his end cutscene is reading books and visiting graves of his P3 friends.

[@AhsokaSnipz]

Never let bro cook again

[@ZimVerse]

Why did yall let bro cook

[@AhsokaSnipz]

@@ZimVerse I didn't 💀

[@JstBobby]

With the theme of death and rebirth i wouldn't be surprised if this was on purpose

[@soraniostaur3839]

the fucking chills I got reexperiencing this AGAIN, why god

[@revanpendragon7729]

This reminds me of jojo part 4 op 3 bites the dust ver. basically its rewinding the opening

[@Fatboiii]

Blud just moonwalks at the end

[@infamoussoul2346]

This some bites the dust type shit

[@techneti_um]

The part with Aigis opening her eyes is super cool actually

[@imagineexisting2493]

the destroyed aigis standing up and walking backwards sure does make a lot of sense.

[@1tsjustpasta]

Why does this song fit so well with everything

[@josephjoestar4849]

This looks like if the good ending was real, where Makoto is alive and happy with everyone

[@erensy641]

1:09 So where can I get me some reverse motorcycles?

[@flamingbird09]

Its your life, Burn your dread! I scream for Ice cream!

[@Benjyome]

Makoto started MoonWalking at the end

[@nome49]

KILLER QUEEN: BITES THE DUST

[@TheNukaColaMan10]

I wonder if this is intentional

[@SSSoukaa]

maybe...check latest costume vid friend

[@nissas70]

Ah yes I too love to take off my lipstick using my lipstick.

[@Elcalacaschidas2069]

Bro basicly did Great Days: Bites the dust version with P3.

[@blaggy834]

it makes a lot of sense for so many reasons. Its literally like the game is reloading.

[@whathappenswhenimbored]

Door-kun has a fantastic moon walk

[@r.a.m.r.c.2478]

And the story goes over again

[@Zeppeli11.618]

Bruh this reminds of jjba part 4 when Kira reverses the whole opening

[@ninjahacker2]

No but fr, as hilarious as the moon walk look. The OP ending with a close and personal moment with the MC walking away goes so hard

[@ban4nazz315]

Makoto got bored so he decided to moon walk.

[@hamtier]

i know this is how alot of animation from big studios work but this way you can clearly see how they drew and animated things completely seperately from each other then edit them together because of how the animation works pretty well even out of the context of the final result

[@Greendawn-di3dl]

Pretty clever with the theme of the overall game and the pause screens.

[@sohanarahaman8070]

And soundtrack is great too hear 👂 ❤😊!

[@TheDarkSatirist]

Crazy the song sounds exactly the same backwards

[@SessmaruKusanagiGaming]

I love it more. The reverse summon is SO COOL.

[@Cashtoria]

The animation is smooth as f 🔥🔥

[@cansonmez2916]

the moon walk at the end made me fcking cry AHAHKFGW

[@SaSa_the_most_motivated]

It's even happier this way :0

[@jishan6992]

Crazy that the opening looks just as cool backwards

[@GABiHatchiiwa]

Aigis snaking her way standing up...

[@Juni_Bowman]

Omg the moonwalk is beautiful

[@Blizzaga06]

Elizabeth “ your access to the velvet room has been revoked”

[@kami_97]

That moon eye opening to thanatos is so sick

[@emmanuelinfantegonzalez4316]

Oh yes, the famous Makoto moonwalk at the end

[@palpalpalpalpalq]

0:28 my favorite move from persona 3, the backwards long jump

[@yyzki6752]

The final was the best part, great moonwalk

[@CrunchMunchzx]

Nozomi: Moon Makoto: Moon Walk

[@yugix_1]

1:16 matching music for the secret final boss: lipstick

[@solipsis2060]

Bites the dust version

[@nasywahaprilia2090]

Woww wait, i never thought of this

[@jillnicoleshell]

MY BOY NASTY W THAT MOONWALK

[@yazcona13]

Honestly the flow of the opening and message of it is actually better than how it was presented originally

[@Sir_Slimbread]

If some of the visuals were played normally, but just ordered differently it'd 100% work, but I can definitely see the vision.

[@TheEvilKingKoopa]

Makoto be doin' the Moonwalk.

[@codenamexelda]

American intro backwards: "iTs SaTaNiC!¡!¡" Japanese intro backwards:

[@zephyrias]

The moon walk at first was cool and then the one where he is in real locale without the flashy effects seems like some behind the scenes shoot. Door-kun still walking backwards

[@XzerobrosX]

near to complete the story this si so much enjoyable!!

[@StealthheartDraws]

I agree about putting the blue silhouetts style at the end, but some of these need the timings fixed and also not being in reverse (namely Junpei's traumatic stuff)

[@turbo_spooky]

As far as the description goes the game is not "co-developed" by p-studio, p-studio is the persona development team within atlus. with the other developer teams being studio maniax for smt and studio zero for metaphor refantazio

[@lucmik7859]

the contract scene works perfectly

[@Mixa_742]

Elizabeth scene made me goosebumps

[@Jordan5Harrison]

Here's me thinking the music was going to be played in reverse and hear satanic quotes. 😢

[@rodrigosantos5258]

That's gonna be the opening for "The Answer" DLC, obviously XD

[@heraka5285]

Imagine this is the OP after you get the bad Ending
