What Makoto Hears

This is just something I had to do.
Meows from here: • 1 hr Cats meow sound e...
Ambient noise from here: • Tokyo City Ambient Noi...

[@Gwenpool256]

It doesn't seem so weird when we actually understand Morgana lmao

[@JamesTheAce0]

That's... the point if this video

[@KewelsBri]

Well, that's how he was introduced to us, so it makes sense, lol.

[@HoraceInkling]

That’s the joke.

[@jinhunterslay1638]

That’s the genius behind Akechi’s pancake line. The player got so used to hearing Morgana talk anyone will completely forget Akechi shouldn’t be able to hear him

[@kordencaden5560]

Ryuji: Woah, I don't follow this at all. Makoto: *You're* the one who isn't following?!

[@MasterLenoXWolfe]

🔥🔥🔥

[@de-weed]

I knew it'd be weird but i didn't think it'd be THIS weird when I can't hear him actually talk

[@raptorjetaXD2]

The feeling was always there with each new member. Also, when everyone meets Sea and Sojiro at the cafe, it is more noticeable that they are both simply listening to the fucking cat meow and they are responding to it xd

[@GuardianAngelEatos]

I love how they animate this scene in the anime! Ann's response to Makoto is priceless!

[@DigiPen92]

Makoto in this scene hasn't been to the Menantos nor seen Morgana's Form yet. We're pretty much listening to Makoto's perspective.

[@mausebas]

there should be a mod that changes morgana overworld voicelines for this tbh

[@justdaffy]

@@zerobullets6935 and way better than his shrill original voice

[@aaaawubadugh8054]

There’s a mod that changes the inconsistency where Morgana has his cognitive appearance in the real world. He has his normal cute cat appearance in the real world but his cognitive form in the other world. Always seemed weird they decided to use that sprite only after Morgana stumbles back into the cafe after defeating Yaldab and the third semester.

[@axon589]

​@@aaaawubadugh8054that's a sick idea

[@xyannail4678]

​@@aaaawubadugh8054Because that sprite was added after Royal, right?

[@KewelsBri]

No, that was always in the base game. I always just interpreted it as the metaverse being gone, and the sprite being a symbol of that.

[@Gameboy2007-Official]

I like how ryuji has the understanding of basically a deaf person judging by this scene

[@klasse4311]

I mean Ann basically has the same response

[@Benxall]

​@@klasse4311Ann is just as silly dummy as Ryuji it's just that japanese comedy means it's only funny if the guy gets called out for it

[@Christian-gr3gu]

​@@Benxalli love sexism horray

[@ma.2089]

@@Benxall I think it’s cuz Ann will actually apologize for not screwing up/not understanding something, knows English the best, and is the one picking up on things when everyone else doesn’t (highest emotional intelligence of the bunch). Since she’s got her own strengths, it does make Ryuji look bad lol

[@Gameboy2007-Official]

[@joshuabergman3292]

[@pseudohippie55]

To think this is all Sojiro ever hears.

[@madhatter6083]

These kids nowadays are always talking with cats...

[@DubsBrown]

This is why I wanted Makoto to react when she’s tailing Joker and Morgana pays for the train ticket. She’s like “Wait, did that cat just give him money?”

[@smallfire93]

Funny enough, they show this in the anime. They're talking to Morgana, and all Makoto can hear is meowing.

[@bagofporkchips8882]

Lmao i keep remembering how not everyone understands Mona, especially when they're just chilling in Leblanc

[@JesterQueenAnne]

​@@zerobullets6935idk about that, cat owners are like that irl, they love to have conversations with their cats as if they can understand each other. I'm more worried about everyone seemingly having hearing issues because nobody seems to notice there's a cat meowing at all unless it's plot convenient.

[@lashimarusanade]

​@@JesterQueenAnneAs a cat owner, this is factual

[@Chokah]

How do we know Sojiro can't hear Morgana and is just keeping it chill? He DID have access to Futaba's Mom's research, at least somewhat...

[@hatsunedkaname]

I will never get why they didnt just activate the nav while in leblanc and quickly got out after Mona talked, at least for just Sojiro, unless the PTs just liked how they can have an inside joke of sorts idk lol

[@verdethestarwarrior1088]

Removing the music makes it even more obvious how crazy they sound talking to a cat

[@somedude3314]

As a person who isn’t apart of the phantom thieves, I can confirm, this is what I would hear.

[@rurouni5580]

This is absolutly genius and i kind of want more 😂

A mod where if there is someone who can’t understand Morgana he’s replaced by various cat noises?

We need the pancake scene with this gag

[@Klaxynd]

@@aquasomnusBut the whole point is pancake boy did hear the voice.

[@CoreyT97]

​@@KlaxyndThat would be genius if the mod didn't replace his voice lines for this scene. People playing for the first time would be like "They forgot to change this scene oops hahaha" little do they know...

[@Verdugo_Arulaq]

Going through P5 and thinking about all the times Morgana speaks and everyone else hears meows I can imagine everyone thinking the thieves are a buncha weirdos that talk to their very vocal cat

[@sarebear1270]

It’s funnier if you cover up the text box too, then you have no idea what Morgana said

[@TheRuggedEchinda]

Has that “Outside of DIO’s World” energy

[@adamoneill6663]

Im sort of disappointed that sojiro never got the abilitie to understand the cat

[@mvl209]

Okay, someone has to mod the entirety of P5 so that every time Morgana talks it's just meows. I need to see scenes from Sojiro's pov

[@MrESPNozaX]

Morgana: Meow Yusuke: I see! Makoto: 🤨

[@nothingness4068]

Yusuke: Very well, I will go along with this

[@melonpulse4833]

Funny thing is, Yusuke could talk to a regular animal and nobody would bat an eye because it's completely in character for him to do this

[@Erricane]

I mean... Atlus DID put the "Meow" out of Morgana every time he speaks. It's genuinely a no-brainer.

[@garrettswantek4667]

The animation did a joke like that. It was that situation too. How ever the original Japanese had it sound like an actual cat than a person making cat noises

[@JoelTheParrot]

Ryuji's and Ann's confusion feels justified

[@Mepphy99]

yusuke understood the Plan before Ryuji and Ann, and they call him stupid lol

[@ShadowEliminator_Aigis]

Morgana to the Phantom Thieves is like Koromaru to Aigis.

[@Fujoshi1412]

It’s funnier listening to this with your own cat next to you, and their glaring at you for watching the video.

[@Khontis]

This actually makes a very important scene resonate a lot more when you have a larger expansion in your mind about when Mona talks and people can't understand... especially when Morgana wants pancakes

[@DragoSonicMile]

_Goro Pancake-chi._

[@lcrilley93]

Dawg im playing through royal again and hearing him say that after I didn't notice the first time fucked me up

[@xyannail4678]

[@maxschwitzer9390]

Heh, i happened to notice that my first time playing and my brain went into overdrive xD

[@Khontis]

@@maxschwitzer9390 Same. I know it's not something *everyone* will catch but for the observant player it makes the 'connect the dots' that much more exciting and mind blowing. When I saw that scene I sat up and looked into the logs and went "Wait... why?" And immediately went "guy is sus"

[@michaelbutler1619]

Makoto's voice actress Cherimi Leigh had a baby girl on October 8th, so I kept picturing a stroller next to her the whole time.

Yusuke being the smartess current human party member at this point is wild. Morgana really did have to carry the mental load for the majority of the first two Palaces, didn't he?

[@ma.2089]

Basically. Yusuke also does have his moments, but it’s usually him being the only person to get what Mona is talking about haha

[@branchy1186]

When you think about it, Igor really did just realize Joker's initial allies would be so stupid that they'd need someone to think for them until they grew, so he had to make Morgana.

I wonder how the kids in school or anywhere in public don't hear some random-ass Meowing coming from Morgana though 😭😭

[@circularnectarine1439]

the kids at Shujin prob think Joker’s gonna fly a plane into their house or smth if they talk shit idk about public, maybe they just think some random stray is around or don’t hear in loud places
