Out of all the females, Rise's going to be the most....serious.

I like P4 because it isn't depressing, but yet still dark.

Isn't Rise the Pop Idol? Her Shadow freaked me right the fuck out!

Yes.

Rise Kujikawa is the pop idol and also the "fuuka" of the game.

Youtube. Look up Yosuke's Shadow

It's the Second VIdeo, then look through the related videos and look at all of them.

Well.

I have the JPN version of P4.

I think the Shadow Selves are implemented much better than they were in Persona 2 anyway. P4's versions of them are much more interesting and dynamic.

Kanji's was strange. I understand that he's Sexually Confused but that was just weird.

I love the idea of Shadow versions of yourself being your true fear! Makes the characters all the more human-like!

I wonder who's going to voice Kanji. Maybe Liam O' Brien. I hope he does.

*shrug*

It's more like aspects of your psyche that you don't want to reveal to anyone. A hidden side to you. Needless to say that the cast initially reject the notion that the Shadow Selves are part of them and only once they accept that do they gain their personae.

It's not the first game I've played that had that. Silent Hill did something similar, even if it's a completely different genre.

Still it's a fucking awesome idea! And so far Kanji is my favorite character besides the MC.

"Yosuke's Shadow"

It's the second video in the list where the title is in Japanese Kanji.

Tobi: It is actually spelled "Yousuke."

Yeah.

Chie's and Rise's look to be more relatable. Yukiko's is something you see everyday. Although, I doubt you'll see Yukiko rebelling.

Kanji is relatable.

I've no clue about Yousuke's. Something about his soft side?

*Yousuke

EDIT: He's childish and doesn't want to mature.

Ahhh. Okay, I get it.

I spell it Yosuke because that's also the proper way to spell it. Like how people spell Toshiro, "Toushirou" when that's actually not the right way to spell it.

Doesn't Yousuke's also relate to a girl he really liked but she actually despised him because of his immaturity?

nevermind, found it

i wasnt really affected by the shadow's appearences, 'cept maybe chie's

Even Kanji's didn't weird you out?

Well.

Yousuke in Persona 4 spells his name Yousuke. I'm sure there are multiple ways to spell Yousuke (Yusuke, Yosuke). But this character is spelled "Yousuke."

Well I'm still spelling it Yosuke.

Isn't it spelled Yosuke though on P4's NA site? Or am I horribly, horribly mistaken?

i thought it was kinda funny actually, its not all that strange to me(if you remember, i read shojo-non yaoi- when i run out of other things to read) so something like that isnt all that much of a shocker to my desensitised brain
