well he's still technically still in the persona series, just as the Blue Butterfly. He appears whenever the protagonist is in need. A good example of this is how in P5 Akira/Ren sees the Blue Butterfly when he's pinned down against the wall by Knights, and that moment happens right before he awakens his Persona
It's hard to imagine that this is in the same universe as Persona 3, 4 and 5 (more so 4 and 5 imo). The games are just so different in aesthetic and tone.
@@firepuppies4086 it is the same universe though? In Persona 3 Mitsuru or whoever (by whoever i mean i forgot wether it was Mitsuru or her father or someone else who says the line. I know who Mitsuru is lol)says a line like "The Kirijo group has separated from the Nanjo group" and my theory about Persona 2 is that Baofu made a mmorpg game about Tatsuya and Maya's story. Also Pheonix Rangers: Featherman originated from Persona 2 Innocent Sin (and is a major plotpoint) also all the characters appear on the show "Trish's who's who" or whatever i forgot the name.
I think it people just venting frustration. Most Persona 1 and 2 fans don't hate 3,4 and 5. It's just that they're tired of those games getting all the attention while the first 2 are completely ignored.
Thats similiar to what Digimon does. Always change the Formula and yet bring out amazing Games. Or in digimon case Seasons. Wouldnt even be surprised if Digimons Darker Tone is inspired from Persona or Shin megami tensei
yes, yes it is. The butterfly is Philemon, and so is his human form. I heard he technically doesn't have a face. That when his mask is punched off in Persona 2, his face looks like Tatsuya because his face becomes whoever you are angry at. Meaning Tatsuya was angry at himself
Seeing how the series largely revolves around psychology, dealing with different human conditions, personal growth and aspects of identity and plays around with all sorts of mythical and religious imagery, it's no wonder butterfly is significant, given it is a creature that has strong symbolical connections with all of those. It is an animal associated strongly with soul/psyche and the multipart metamorphosis it undergoes during its life cycle is often compared to the evolution and maturing process of an individual, among other things.
@@DeadChristmasTreebythehighway Don't ask me buddy I don't care. My point was calling people idiots because they want something you don't is quite immature.
They should take the models they used for the cutscenes and just make a re-remake of this game. People might actually play it if they did (not hating, I actually really like p1 but no one else seemed to)
Anadroll 50 maybe. Though I've been playing p1 alongside 3 recently and personally Ive been enjoying 1 more so far.I haven't played through too much of either yet, but i find myself wanting to go back to 1 whenever playing 3 often.
09:15 this is my favorite part of the game and one of my favorite endings . A fully fledged bond with a girlfriend without any social links or confidant
This feels like a CG nicktoons show that had 1 season that was animated in France and came on after SpongeBob sometimes but you’ve only ever watched bits and pieces of episodes
If you would drink a shot everytime Philemon, a mirror or the girl appears, they mention personas,fate or other esoteric crap or call out their names, you would be drunk in 17 minutes...
a nice detail i noticed in these custscenes is that they redesigned Philemons home to resemble its Persona 2 version i guess that means they where keeping track of continuity!
@@caliber_vThese cutscenes are from psp "remaster" version, which was made after Persona 2 duology. Original PS1 version had different design for both Philemon and his "room".
They need to remake this and also use the manga's story bits especially for the mc to give him depth and combine sebec and sqq route to have better continuity :)
They should have done more with these cutscenes (also I like how only naoya, mark, nanjo, maki, and philemon have 3D models and everyone else is 2D animated)
They're funnily enough also the characters who will stay (some leave but WILL return) in your team regardless of your choices In the SEBEC route, at least-
Did you know that the studio that animated these cutscenes is actually the same one that did the opening to Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin and the CGI Openings for JoJo's Bizarre Adventure?
This game as well as Persona 2 Eternal Punishment and Innocent Sin deserves a remake for the next generation of consoles! Just imagine the PSP versions of all three, but having both the original and portable soundtracks, gameplay as P1, and P2 to P3, P4, and P5, and so on!
Persona 2 duology was supposed to have an anime adaptation called Persona 2: Another Self but was cancelled for unknown reasons. There is a trailer for the anime series.
Why am I only watching this now The one time I'm ever hearing Naoya in a cutscene is when he got struck by lightning... fudging familiar Grant. Whoops, punned again. 😏
@@scrappy2082 Igor is in P1 as well though. Nameless has been doing his job for over 200 years so most likely Igor has been helping Philemon for at least that long
There are two story routes you can take in this game. One is the alternate "Snow Queen" route, and the other is the main "SEBEC" route. Both routes have a final boss.
"Hello, I'm Philemon. I'm going to disappear from this series after 2, and by God, I'm getting my damn screentime."

@Joseph Buccelli It was more a time constraint thing, since it released two months after Japan.
@Joseph Buccelli That's unfortunate too since it wouldnt be until the PSP release where we find out that the P1 team fought Nyx before P3 did
Actually the Snow Queen story is on the US game disc, but without a cheating device, you can't access it.
