Poem for Everyone's Souls - Persona 20th Anniversary Concert

Welcome to the velvet room, this place has taken the form of an oprea house Btw i can see beladonna as the attendant in that one, as shes an oprea singer

[@shaneaycock9306]

That would actually work.

[@adeaedgeworth]

Here, you can fuse the personas you have gathered, creating an even powerful- No, that singer is not a persona.

[@HaruOkumuraNoir]

it pretty much already did, Megami inbonroku’s velvet room.

[@angel__king]

Persona 6 being an opera house might lend to a really interesting soundtrack and might make the music be maybe a bunch of orchestral tracks, Operatic music or classical. That might be really cool depending on the themes. The persona compendium could be a seating list and when you resummon it there’s like a spotlight on a seat and the persona stands up or something. They could even work social links/confidants into it by having the max level confidant personas being in the raised seats that are on the sides. Plus they could bring back some of the older characters from persona one and 2 that actually sing the song. Hold on I need to go draw and work on some fanfics

[@Quadrolithium]

@@angel__king so what will be the theme? Actors/Stars like SMTxFE but more serious? Or more focused on Social Media than P5? "The internet is the stage, and you are the actor" And the Main character's Persona is either Phantom of the Opera or Shakespeare? Sadly we cannot use the 1st one because Persona 5 already took the theme "Masks" along with "Phantoms" Every other party personas wil be famous actors, writers, musicians, composers, or playwrights. Like Beethoven, Edgar Allen Poe, etc... Light and Shadows might be a better theme since it was discussed in P3 that personas and shadows are one. When you summon a Persona a spotlight shines on you then from the shadow created rises your Persona (of course you pose 1st) Igor will be sitting as the judge in front (audience seats) or as the VIP on top And this is a good time to bring back the old trio: Demon Painter, The Pianist, and of course Belladona. (Pianist and Belladona in the orchestra, Demon painter in the background whete the murals are) As a fanservice, put murals of all the Persona protagonists on the stage. Aside from paintings of your Personas hanging from the stage Although this will not happen, I'd like Philemon to return as the host or showmaster If they don't being back the trio that's fine, Igor's assistant will eithet be the Showmaster, Host, or the Diva Igor: "You now stand on the verge of greatness, alongside the greatest actors of the past, the Wild Cards (camera pans to the murals of Persona protagonists), I hope your act doesn't dissapoint"

[@JagrasSneedandFeed]

Actually hearing a new arrangement instead of the regular version is super crazy and surreal. They did really amazing, as the song deserves

Japanese musicians and singers are so dedicated to what they purpose themselves to do.

[@ruhtraeel]

I think it's fair to say most good musicians are, regardless of nationality. It's just that a lot of Japanese orchestral music is more mainstream since it's used in video games and shows.

One Day, Velvet Room Will Based On This

[@gaogolgar]

Well, if we are to have a female protagonist for the next game, allow me to provide the narration. As she awoke from uneasy dreams, she found herself in a strange place, wearing an opulent, strapless ball gown that accentuated her prominent bosom. A vanity stood to one side, carrying makeup of many types. She lay on a bed with silken sheets, her hair done up in a fancy way. Her hands were covered by silk gloves, the skirt was poofy, hiding her feet. A sign on the door bore her name surrounded by a star. As soon as she heard someone knocking, she opened the door, but the sight of a strange man caught her by surprise. He was a long nosed fellow, the type she had only seen in a picture book when she was younger. At first, she thought of him as a goblin, but standing next to him was a much younger man dressed in blue, carrying a clipboard in one arm and a writing quill in the other hand. "Welcome to the Velvet Room, my dear", the older man said. "This place exists between dreams and reality, mind and matter. My name is Igor, and I'm delighted to make your acquaintance." She stared at Igor as though she were in a dream. "You're probably wondering why you are here. This is a special place where only those bound by a contract are allowed to enter. Oh, forgive my rudeness, I neglected to introduce this fellow, his name is Johann." Igor said, introducing his assistant. "A pleasure to meet you, my dear Prima Donna." The younger man said while she curtsied, introducing herself. "This room reflects the inside of one's heart," Johann said. "Seeing how you view yourself as a person who desires the spotlight, the place has taken the form of a theater. You are here because you forged a contract. You have quite the journey ahead of you, I must say." Said Igor. She asked if she had been kidnapped, but that was answered by Igor, "Don't worry, you are fast asleep in the real world." She inquired about her role in this, to which Igor responded, "You stand upon the verge of greatness, my dear, alongside the greatest actors of the past, the Wild Cards," and as he said that, he gestured to a set of murals upon the wall, depicting men surrounded by groups of people, and all 3 of them holding a card branded "The Fool." "I hope your act doesn't disappoint," Igor said as she felt something appear in her hand. A shiny jewel revealed itself as she opened it up. Her question about it's purpose was only met with "All shall be revealed in due course, Prima Donna," from Johann. As she watched Johann place something in her hand, she didn't notice the clock on the wall ticking away. "Here's the key. Keep it safe." "It would appear that the night is waning fast," Igor said as Johann took her by the hand. She returned to the dressing room she had come out of. "Before you go, never forget, the arcana is the means through which all is revealed," Igor's voice echoed as the Velvet Room dissolved before her. "Until the day we meet again, Prima Donna!" Johann's voice echoed as the door slammed shut behind her before it too dissolved. She returned to the bed she was sleeping on when she was transported there, her gown dissolved, leaving her in the pajamas she was wearing when she entered her bedroom in the real world.

Best song in the series

[@ejelecflametails6657]

When you seem to be awake, when you were very young, you would see a door, normally, it would be a regular door, like a closet or a way to leave your room, but when you open, you feel curious, as if it is something different. As gou get further, music plays, as if it was a grand entrance. Welcome to the Velvet Room. You are greeted by a bizarre man, with an abnormal nose. Alongside a singer, a pianist, a painter, and a nun. This place exists between dreams and reality. Mind and matter. They tell you that you are destined for something great. For you are a key to guiding humanity to a bright future. They promise the boy that they will meet in the future. There is still a message that they tell them, it is that they must live their life, for they have to cherish everything, good and bad. That is the message that is told years ago, now... there will be something great. A legacy. And an end to a long tale...
