The Yellow of Persona 4 

Persona 3- Sadness of Death Persona 4- Fear of the Truth Persona 5- Anger of Opression

Yellow symbolizes pee, because Yosuke had to pee in the first time they entered the TV.

'Yellow is the colour of happiness' Every social link: Hey I have like 99999 family problems, wanna hear them?

The Green of Persona 6

You know i always found it pretty crazy that Persona 4 a game were you literally try to stop a Killer and nearly kill someone you assume has killed your sister, manages to be the most lighthearted of the series. Hell even Yu had it easier than Akira and Minato in his life.

I shed tears and later that night cried in my sleep, when I played til the part where nobody greet me at home. Before I moved out for work, the house I lived in was full of smile and conversation with my family. When I open my doors, there's only hallow. I felt sad though i never realised so, but when Nanako wasn't there anymore, the feeling hit me like a train.

OH, THANK YOU! I AM SICK AND TIRED, HOW SO MANY FANS TREAT P4, LIKE THERE'S NO DEPTH AT ALL!!! Great Video!

In Italy we call a detective novel a giallo, which means yellow

Yellow is also associated with cowardice and there have been some moments where some of the characters show cowardly behavior. For instance, when the MC and Yosuke investigate the tv world to look for clues about Saki's death, Teddie keeps a safe distance from the duo and Yosuke accuses him of running away if things turned pear shaped. Another example is when Yosuke didn't want to go into the Steamy Bathhouse. In conclusion, while yellow can be associated with happiness and malaise, cowardice also has had some moments throughout the game.

Nice video like always. There is just a detail that you got wrong. The God that possesses Namatame is not Ameno-Sagiri, it is Kunino-Sagiri. According to the wikia of P4, the are both spirits of the fog, but both are associated with different realms, Ameno is heaven while Kunino is Earth. It becomes ironic when you realize that you find Kunino in the level "Heaven" and Ameno in a apocalyptic version of Inaba, "Earth". Keep up the good work :)

I just noticed that persona 3-5 colors are the primary colors.

With the increasing obsessions in social media and some people not being able to differentiate between fiction and reality, is it me or are the themes in this game more relevant that ever?

To me the yellow represents the light to guide the characters to the truth

Yellow can also be associated with Truth, Hence Izanagi-no-Okami's Myriad Truths Ability

Great video, but I think you should have gone a bit more into the mythology surrounding the game, particularly in the case of Izanagi and Izanami. In Japanese myth, Izanagi was so overcome with grief for the loss of Izanami that he was willing to brave the underworld to try and bring her back. When he found her, she agreed to go with him on the condition that he refuses to look at her true self and instead only view her in the darkness. Izanagi ends up lighting a torch (presumably lighting the room in a yellow light) and sees that she has become a rotten corpse. Enraged, Izanami chases Izanagi out of the underworld, and she promises to kill 1000 humans each day. Izanagi responds by promising to give birth to 1500 humans every day to make for those who are lost. He then bathes in a spring of purification to rid himself of the taint of the underworld and gives birth to his three most important children, Amaterasu, Tsukiyomi, and Susanoo. Izanagi's grief can be reflected at how desperate and sad people can sometimes be willing to live a lie that everything is fine, even if it means ignoring terrible things like Izanagi would have had to ignore if he pretended that his wife wasn't dead. While things weren't easy by his refusal to do this, and it caused him to permantly be severed from the love of his life, he was able to grow past it once he was free from the underworld and bring to life things that are essential to the world (the sun, the moon, and the sea). So when Yu summons Izanagi-no-Ookami at the end to defeat the corpse that Izanami had been revealed to be he was clearing the fog she had created permanently.

I'd like to ask at least. Any insight on what happened on what happened the end of Persona 4 The Animation: Yu's unease surrounding his relocation from Inaba causes a Shadow Self to appear in the battle with Margaret. Appearing as a pile of televisions sets with Yu's image on them, this Shadow is not fought and is quickly accepted. Shadow Yu states that "I was afraid of a future without my friends, afraid of leaving everyone behind and moving forward on my own...I don't want to be alone again, I've been alone, and I won't go back!" Yu quickly agrees with his Shadow, stating that all he wants is to be with his friends, whether this fantasy is real or not.

Yellow can also represent betrayal, duplicity, and jealousy.

Persona is such a strange game franchise

Yellow is also often associated with deception and jealousy. In french, there is an expression to describe a forced laugh that goes by "yellow laugh". And in history, many different kind of people were branded with the color yellow, the most notable example being with the Jews, not only by the Nazi regime but also during the crusade.

Yellow is the color of fear, even though you talk about it indirectly I just wanted to point it out. You did great.

so yea. it's me again lol. so, as he said lately, yellow represents happiness and sickness. and for me, it represents how colorful life is even you are having a hard times. so the yellow theme represents the bright side of the world but, the television represents the dark side of the world. persona 4 tells us that in any person, there is always a dark side of their lives. because life is not perfect tho. so the other meaning of yellow is toxic and disease. disease can completely changes others mood and also mental disease. it shows how anxiety and depression can change people now days. toxic things can give a person a disease, and that is the society now days. society now days are full of toxic people that can give a person a mental disease. the toxicity of people now days can totally changes the person's perspective in life or even the whole personality of that person. for example, a guy is always positive and loves watching anime. but when the toxic people always telling him that it's too immature to watch anime and he's useless because he always watches anime for the whole day. that positive guy becomes a guy who hates the society. and that is how i describe the yellow color of the persona 4

I always wondered why Yellow of all things was chosen for P4 good Video man thanks for clearing it up for me. I enjoyed this little color series :)

Can you make a video on the P4 casts final personas? You did P5 and I was wondering about P4's.

Quality work as always. Thank you for the fantastic video

9:01 I’m probably late to this but,I’m quite sure that it is kunino-sagiri and not Ameno-Sagiri but still a great vid tho

I love this game so much. It helped me out so much

You forgot about Marie (Aeon Arcana) in Persona 4 Golden (not critical but still relevant to your topic).

now that i think about it, there's a lot of shades of yellow throughout persona 4

It could also mean blind as the main P4 cast thought namatame is the real killer

I believe there was a mistake... You mentioned that Namatame was possessed by Ameno-Sagiri. This may just have been a slight mistake, as Kunino-Sagiri, the one who ACTUALLY possessed Namatame, isn't all too memorable in the grand scheme of things... That is, compared to Ameno-Sagiri, who possessed Adachi, or Izanami.

Can you do a symbolism video on the Persona 4 characters second and third personas

Pink of Persona 3 Portable when

I love Persona 4. It's best the game ever.

Actually Naoto didn't want to remove her feminine features, the official anime adaptation shows she wanted to become older (as the laser turned Yu, Yosuke and Teddie into elderly men) due to how adult cops considered her work a childish game.

So Adachi desired something like Mementos and interesting the red and black of Mementos in the background.

This was very enlightening, I only noticed the happiness and the truth/lies. The whole disease thing never came to mind

Self-doubt? There is a difference between self-doubt and self-doubt because everyone you ever met said you aren't worth it

I dont believe Ameno Sagiri controlled Adachi. Instead, it latched onto Adachi as an avatar for humanity's insecurities and acted towards what it believed was humanity's will. It is fundamentally different from the final boss in p5 which reveled in humanity's indolence. I believe Adachi was in control and was the real mastermind behind the events in p4, even if unaware of Ameno Sagiri's existence.

i love your analysis for the games and the beautiful messages you add to each video, but there is something i can't agree with. its not that ame-no-sagiri "believes" that humanity desires for the false images, but that humanity actually does desire it. the investigation team gave a new opportunity to humanity, but the danger is always latent and it could come again. this same story structure can be applied to persona 3, 4, 5, Q2, and even smt devil survivor 2. sorry that my english is not too good, i hope its understandable enough.

Haven't watch the video yet. (Can't right now). But the moment I saw the Suikoden 2 banner; instantly Subscribe to you channel. A person with taste i see :).

could you do a vid of symbolism in P4, like personas and stuff

Another intresting video

Daisuke had a girlfriend that broke up with him? Is that why he says "I think girls suck" in the anime?

Nametame was not possessed by Ameno-Sagiri but Kunino-Sagiri

yellow is happy color

For me, yellow is the color of warn signs (street, scene of crime, ... ) and of electricity (We have an electricity providor in Germany that's called yellow).

Please make a symbolization video about the Persona Dancing series!!!! c:

Will you someday make a video on Persona 2?

Ans so we still wait for 'the red of Persona 5'

WRONG! Namotame is NOT posessed by Ameno Sigiri he's possesed by Kunino Sigiri.

Even Doh Persona III's Story Is My Favorite, IV Is Probably My Favorite Title In The Series In General

I think the connection with yellow and sickness is a stretch, but a good video nonetheless.

Persona games be like:we stopped this evil person who was using this metaphysical world to fuck with peoples mind now we have to kill a god like being created by society

What music tracks did i use for this video? Im just curious

Great vid bro. What country are u from?

1:31 *N I C E !* XD

You never see a shadow succeed in this game. I would've liked it, it would've provided Teddy with a rival. Would they get so powerful and threaten the world or would they replace the original in the real world?

In my country yellow can also mean lust

What's the music name?

Hello, Room.....

Everything is all right but there's one thing I can't get. Shadow is the personification of your darkest and most shamefull thoughts and character trades but it still is the part of your real character. If shadow is accepted it becomes Persona. Persona-the social face the individual presented to the world-"a kind of mask, designed on the one hand to make a definite impression upon others, and on the other to conceal the true nature of the individual". It's pretty contradicting if you think about it. Also in Persona series Persona is sometimes defined as a mask created to survive the hardships of life and sometimes as person's true self... So how is it?

Who else wants a 2nd if every game like a second part or something like that bc I want a 2nd part of persona 4 bc it was the best and is the best

Truth

Seeker of Truth? Nah, I'm a Phantom Thief.

It's Yellow because they in New Mexico.

Could it be that the story writers are Jungians? Shadows, simbology, sexual integration, personas....

While analysis videos are nice why even spoil the game this much? You can do this video in half the time with the half the spoilers. Most of the time the theme you present is lost amidst with rundowns of situations. I feel like this video should sell persona 4 to new people or shed light to people who have played. Even though most people who have completed the game should already realize why yellow is prominent.

First

This game has nothing to do with disease
