JasonWillDieToday hehe I ruined it

Not only are Big Bang Burger's ethics questionable, they infringed on Junes' copyrighted jingle!

Junes is a department store *see the difference?*

It's okay, she's happy now

But she didn't die though it was a joke.

remembers dio

@@J-Wolf17FTW yea it was just like Shinji from 3! Oh wait....

Why did you remind me of that *again* C-cause i-i-i’m not the one cryin’ here, y-y-y-you are!!

MMDTrxsh Okumura foods probably bought Junes.

MMDTrxsh *insert a bear pun*

The Dude907 that's unbearable

I heard best boi?

@@simplydan5555 Beary nice

Hmm I'm not sure if that's a reference since Akihiko's "I've been waiting for this!" has become a meme in only English speaking community. It is "この瞬間を待っていた! (kono shunkan o matteita!)" in Japanese and it is a pretty common phrase and almost no one in Japan think it's something significant or funny. Actually Akechi speaks the same phrase before his all out attack in the Japanese version (I forgot how it was translated in the English version) but no one in Japan think it's a reference to Akihiko.

@@RyiSnow Wait, so Atlus made mentions to Western movies, but possibly didn't make a reference to a very big meme in the West? Weird.

@@Shadowtopia69 I dont think a company who was recently doxxed would want anything to do with metioning western culture or westerners anymore

In the new Royal version of P5 Yusuke says “I’ve been waiting for this” every time Morgana turns into catbus :3

@@Shadowtopia69 The movies are already western in the Japanese version too. Atlus didn't change anything when translating

Brigade Leader Haruhi Suzumiya You just get them from the claw machine in the arcade in Akihabara. They change everytime you win one. There are like five different ones you can win. You gain absolutely nothing for collecting them.

Also, dates ending in 7 are lucky days, which is nice, as you only get a set number of tries before it counts as an activity that takes time. So be sure to only try on those days, or at least be prepared not to do anything else on that specific date, while wasting a bit of money (It's no more than you would use on each visit from Kawakami though...)

The man’s business model was pretty shady to begin with

he’s a business man, doing business

If I remember in p3 he mentioned had an intern or something that was studying law with the intent of shutting him down…. Maybe they succeed?

Who's to say he's not running both to deal to both the general mass and the black market. A businessman has to expand his target demographic.

I never trusted him to begin with

Ryuji and Kasumi (to prevent spoilers, I'll stick to this name) will be athletes in their own fields, and Futaba a cognitive pscientist. After clearing P5R, I still have some questions about some things though, which makes me hyped for P6!

We know Joker and Futaba will inherit LeBlanc but I bet Futsba will leave that to Joker. So I expect an Easter Egg where "Town Detectives: A mysterious guy with glasses makes great curry in secret Tokyo shop!" Narukami will probably become a teacher or something since the anime showed he was great with kids.

@@snakeslife-uroborodjinn790 Lol joker won't inherit leblanc he's not a relative of sojiro futaba will probably get it tho

“the guy from Persona 2’s” name is Katsuya

@Croissant Comics thanks, I’m uncultured and haven’t played persona 2 or persona 1 so thanks for telling me

I don't get why they just have Junes be a department store where you can get a part time job and do your shopping at. But have the logo changed so Teddie is now the official mascot, and Yosuke runs one

@@283leis I know right

​@@283leis 2 years late but that would be because if they did. The reference would not be subtle anymore. Atlus likes to keep their references as subtle as possible. Putting junes in would be like getting hit with a baseball bat.

​@@Diablo3364 tbf the entire hermit arcana from P3 was a bit of a baseball bat reference to P2

@@Diablo3364 You literally visit Gekkoken high in p4. But I do think your on to something. Atlus was definitely trying to be a lot more subtle with the Easter eggs in p5.

Yup and a lot of other references too (Doraemon, My Neighbor Totoro, Takeshi Kitano etc). But I intended to make these videos with only Persona-related reference.

By the way "The World" reference only exists in the English version. I'm not sure how it happened though.

RyiSnow It do exists in JP version

Yulong Zheng Hmm I believe we're talking about the answer for the question ("What is the name of the phenomenon where the second hand looks like it stops moving?") in Sep 14. In the English version, the answers are: 1 A time paradox 2 Stopwatch 3 The World 4 Chronostasis In the Japanese version, the answers are: 1 タイムパラドクス (A time paradox) 2 ストップウォッチ (Stopwatch) 3 クロックムッシュ (Croque-monsieur) 4 クロノスタシス (Chronostasis) In the Japnese version, the number 3 answer is just a simple pun ("Croque" kind of sounds like "clock) and no Jojo reference.

THAT WAS AWESOME HAAHAHAHA

Tomanyan And the nyans i can bear with that

Agil Hari Santoso it’s beary good

Teddie's got it beary tough.

When Fire Emblem has Anna, Persona has Tanaka.

I’d consider it an Easter egg based off the fact that it’s sorta out of the way and requires deliberate effort to come across.

bro, in persona 4 that bastard sells swords, guns, homunculus and strange shit

He's probably an evil god

I wish Kurosawa was recurring, he’s in two games but not in 5 😭

2 years later and your thesis has been priven again

What about P3

@徐正諺TsuiChingYin no.... She moved away.... At the end of p4, it said she was going to africa.

@徐正諺TsuiChingYin You are wrong

Yes I was aware of the reference but didn't include it since I wanted to make the video with only Persona reference (I didn't include the Catherine reference for the same reason). Also in the Japanese version the movie they watch on this day is not Like a Dragon (Ryu Ga Gotoku) but a movie called "Boutreiji (バウト零時)" which I believe is a parody of famous Japanese yakuza film "Outrage" directed by Takeshi Kitano. So "the famous director" means Takeshi who is a very famous comedian and also a movie director in Japan. The Ryu Ga Gotoku/Yakuza reference is actually an English version original :) My guess is, since Outrage is not that well known in English speaking countries, the English translator of P5 thought it would be difficult to use it as a joke so he/she decided to use Ryu Ga Gotoku instead but translated it a bit differently so they could avoid to make it as a direct reference of SEGA's game.

That makes sense. I thought you just didn't notice because, even with it's recent popularity, Yakuza is still a relatively niche title. I also didn't know it was only in the English version. By the way, what was the Catherine reference? I only ask because I thought I could play Catherine on hard mode and gave up on the second night. I thought it would be easier since I like to think I'm pretty good at puzzle games... Man, was I wrong.

You can get a Catherine sheep plushy at the arcade in Akihabara at some point of the game. Also I remember the Catherine dream level music is used for some movie (forgot which movie is). Sojiro talks about coffee trivia also reminds me of Catherine (the bar owner talks about cocktail trivia). Actually I've never played Catherine (watched some LPs though) but I've heard it's pretty hard. Maybe I should try it when Full body is released.

Not only that, but Futaba gets a Catherine figure in her room in the Rank 10 Confidant event.

RyiSnow If you wanted to make it a Persona reference, "Like a Dragon" is the name of Chie's theme in Persona 4 Arena

well p3 cast could still use personas in the tv world,they just stopped using because their medium (dark hour) was gone...so i guess it's the same for every persona user

Kenshi Gaming no no once u get a persona it will never go away p1 made that clear

@@Akkihana maybe the other can crew can use it in metaverse

I always wonder if fuuka can still use a weaker versión of his power witouth her persona like feeling when someone is around

Wait but *_SPOILERS_* wasn’t the metaverse destroyed at the end? And also, the Persona games happened at a previous time to P5 so this might not be very valid at all anyways, but still, it could happen if they met in somewhere like a different metaverse, or the Phantom Theives accidentally going into either the dark hour or the tv realm, then probably likely..

Why did I read that as soni cheros

*Crush 40 screaming*

Atlus is owned by Sega and Joker is a DLC costume in Sonic Forces

Isn't persona 6 gonna be green

I watched the gameplay a loong time ago can you remind me why it brought to his "doom" (not the death)

@@domyeet2684 Two words: *Megidolaon 9999*

@@derekmartin5340 hello

@@stachilouspro8795 She has an attack that is Megidolaon but it's guaranteed to hit with 9999 damage

I see. It seems there are more P2 references than I thought. That will make the 20th Easter eggs from past Personas. Thanks for letting me know!

Oh I didn't notice that. I'll check it later. Thanks for letting me know :)

RyiSnow You’re very welcome!

Commander Gurizzly I hear it too

Kept you waiting,huh???

It’s a Yakuza reference, actually

LIQUIIIIIIID

Walking through the subway you could also see Rise all over

Is it, though?

Isn't super sentai just Japanese power rangers

@@farhanzaman7835 Close; The Power Rangers are actually just another super sentai show, just dubbed in English.

Niga bruh

swag ozzie r/woooosh

Gotta save money

i was like haru why the fuck are you a dvd seller

Nanako would be way older by the time of P5, one of the TV broadcasts mentioned Rise went into hiatus 5 years ago

it would makes sense to assume she would be in about high school by p5

He appeared on P4A and he was still in jail

@@v0rtexbeater #FREEADACHI

Like a Dragon (Ryu ga Gotoku) is the Japanese name of Yakuza series by Sega

Nah Rise is too thirsty. Ann was better, but I didn't date her either

Happy to hear that you enjoyed the videos! My personal favorite is also the Kuma reference :) Thanks for the comment!

I personally thought that was just a namesake, but idk.

I think she gets a second mention later as well.

Its also the name of Chie's battle music

Maybe not an easter egg video but I've been kind of thinking to make a video about Japanese cultural reference in Persona since there are so many such references that the English translation hasn't covered (this doesn't necessarily mean the English translation is bad though).

RyiSnow Well that’s a shame since it looked like there were more Persona music Easter Eggs and I wanted to see those.

M0lot0v94 where tf is she anyways?

Blake chandler Elizabeth left the Velvet Room sometime between the end of Persona 3 and the beginning of Persona 4. She went on her own adventure in order to find a way to save the P3 Protagonist from his fate. She fell in love with him and refused to let him suffer. As of now, we don't know where she is. All we know is that she's wandering by herself. Trying to find a way to save him.

I think its just there for reference

@@blakechandler167 Elizabeth left the velvet room when persona 3 ended. Mainly because she wants to find a way to save makoto Yuki from his fate. No news as of yet, but I hope that atlus will make a game that focuses on Elizabeth's adventures to find a way to save him. That's why the next game should have a connection with persona3 and should include the old characters in there

Probably just threw that out there. It's just fan service there's no velvet room conspiracy going on

Well,8-bit version

You say that as if it's a weird concept

From best boi yusuke i think

Lucas kincanyon Sayoko is the nurse from p4 that tries to hit on you, Tanaka is the tv salesman, Elizabeth was main velvet room girl in p3

I was smiling like an idiot when I saw this reference, I love the Yakuza games, still have yet to finish them all

Kelixbro34 Now, if only there was a real Yakuza movie...

Patrick Chaney that’d be awesome

Sendy Pamungkas Likely 2016, since Rise was 15 in P4 [which took place in 2011] and is 20 now.

Maddy J. Yeah, i though it took place in 2019 because they add 3 years after the game release like P3 release in 2006 and took place in 2009 and P4 release in 2008 and took place in 2011

Sendy Pamungkas but it was finished in 2013, and was delayed for 2014, delayed again, about a few times, and got released in 2017

SupremeLxd already finished in 2013, so that's why it take place in 2016, makes sense
