They flubbed Junpei and Chidori's relationship and it made the beginning of the movie quite confusing. This movie is very good, however, if you have played the games and are now watching the movies be prepared to be disappointed by some select decisions made by the director. That's all, overall this movie is good, And for what I've heard, Winter of Rebirth is even better, and the best of the movie saga. Which also uses a plot point in her Social Link. To put an end to the love triangle and make Aigis a "living proof" that Makoto was there. Maiko for Midsummer Knight's Dream, for a midsummer short love story.Īkinari for Falling Down, for the feeling that life is fading away and death is nearby.įinally, Aigis and Yukari for Winter of Rebirth. Like, Chihiro for the first one, Spring of Birth, for the concept of a blossoming youth. I would've put more tension between Aigis and Yukari, developed slowly a love relationship between Aigis and Makoto (which is canon, by the way), gave more focus on Junpei and Chidori romance as well, making Chidori a more memorable character.Īnd I would've used Social Link characters that fit with the mood of each movie. If I were the director, I would have increased the running time for all movies, making each 2 hours long. Persona casual fans (like me) have no reasons to complain of this and the other adaptations. Though I wish the villains were given more screen time. All felt too familiar and the charisma of the characters wasn't gone.
Persona 3 the movie 3 english sub portable#
I have just played Persona 3 Portable for the PSP, and I'm very glad to have this anime movie adaptation.

Short, but fitting given the short movie length. I would've liked LotusJuice did more rapping.Īs I pointed before, the movie focuses almost solely on Makoto and Ryoji, the other SEES members are given quick twists. Remixed songs from the original game and new ones are there, so there's no complaints. The story was well paced, and focused on Makoto's struggles rather than action, though this doesn't mean it hasn't a dosis of quality animated fights.īetter than Persona 4, and it looks better on the night. I think the way they portrayed his friendship with Ryoji was very good, and make this character more sympathetic than the game. The most worked out thing was how Makoto felt, and deal with depression. It didn't feel profound, nor did it feel shallow. Is kidnapped and Chidori became a villain, the same way as they cut off great part of the Love Hotel arc.īut, the love relationship between Chidori and Junpei turned out aceptable. Though, many things were removed from the main story as well, I can point out that I disliked the way the animators cut off how Junpei Like the other 2 movies, we won't see any Social Link, or supporting characters back story, which isn't a big deal regarding the plot.

Unfortunately, it's very likely we will have to wait until October to watch the fourth and final movie: Winter of Rebirth, while it's already released in Japan.īut I'll stop complaining and review this movie.įor an Atlus adaptation from videogame to anime movie, many things must be omitted. This movie also develops Junpei's character arc to make him a more fleshed out character, which is nice considering that he's my favourite character from the original game.įortunately, this movie has just been released online. His main development within this movie is regarding his priceless interactions with the main protagonist, who is emotionally distant from people after the events of the second movie. A character who will be especially important in the 4th movie. I mentioned earlier that this movie has a focus on the new character of Ryoji. I especially think that the ending credits song was fitting, and Lotus Juice does an outstanding job as always. The music in this movie is also splendid, and always adds to the tension or emotion. There really isn't much else to say in this regard.
Persona 3 the movie 3 english sub series#
Understand by now that this movie series has good animation. The movie does end on a cliffhanger, but it isn't a real problem for me, since it only invigorates interest in the 4th movie. It makes up for the fast pacing by putting a lot of emphasis on the new character of Ryoji, who I'll get to in a second.

unfortunately, the pacing of the movie suffers this, especially since it's the shortest movie in the persona 3 movie series. The third installment in the Persona 3 movie tetralogy has a difficult job of juggling multiple moving parts within the story, which is justifiably tough. COGITO ERGO SUM - I think, therefore I am.
