Persona 4 - I'll Face Myself -Battle-

[SHARDK2]

Don't say it

Don't say it

Don't say it

Don't say it

Don't say it

Don't say it

YOU'RE NOT ME!

FUUUUUUCK!!!!

[TakashiSharino]

We can argue about whether or not Minato or Yu is cooler, but the truth still remains that TATSUYA MOTHERFUCKING SUOU BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF AN OUTER GOD DISGUISED AS HITLER! Sorry, but all of your arguments are invalid forever. GOOD NIGHT LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!

[AriesByTheStars]

Yugi "I summon the Dark Magician in attack mode!"

Souji "I activate my trap card, Trap Ho-" *crushes card* "..."

[Majorasword64]

I'm wondering which one is cooler,crushing a card,or shooting yourself in the head.

[biohalo87freak]

28 people couldn't accept the embodiment of their suppressed feelings

[FruggleFarkle123]

MC: I'm the true hero of this series!

Minato: Bitch, please. I died for your sins.

MC: O_O

[TakashiSharino]

@FruggleFarkle123 Yu: Oh wait, I have an anime and a upcoming fighting game sequel. I don't care! <3 Your friends are more than welcome to join in if they want. I would invite you, but you're busy...being dead and all. Welp, shit happens for a reason. Peace home brah.

[FruggleFarkle123]

@TakashiSharino Minato: That's it. Your ass is grass.

*Releases the seal and Nyx destroys the world.

Minato: Now I rule over Shadows and everyone who suffers from Apathy Syndrome. Hahahahaha!

[TakashiSharino]

@FruggleFarkle123 Narrator: And thus, Persona 3 never had a sequel except for that one anime ...that still didn't have Minato in it. The End.

[FruggleFarkle123]

@TakashiSharino *Minato looks at what he's done.

Minato: FUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

[ARMENIANNN]

this is more than a game

[TheZintastic]

I'm the shadow, the TRUE self! I keep on lying and hiding the true me from other because I just want to be accepted and am scared what people think of me. That's who I am!!

...True, it's impossible. The person they like is just the one I'm pretending to be, my shell, while the real me is someone they'll never know. But I'm just too scared of what people would think of the real me...

[058875915]

i am the shadow the true self.....................FFS STOP SAYING THAT THE SHADOW INST YOU ITS GETTING ANNOYING......THAT STRIPPER WAS HARD TO KILL

[legomovieman94]

@058875915 "THAT STRIPPER WAS HARD TO KILL" Just be careful not to say that out of context. XD

[058875915]

@legomovieman94 lmfao i legit lold at that

[Dice12K]

"ANYBODY ORDER A STUPID LOOKING BOSS FIGHT?!"

Even though it looks stupid, it was well made. >.>;

[Zerberus410]

Name: Jack Waber

Arcana: Moon

Persona: Pluto (Strong ice attacks, moderately decent Darkness attacks)

Shadow: (Assuming it's my younger self) Will be based on when I was a closeted homosexual.

[Okamii007]

Playin this while washin the dishes, it's time to face myself :L

[adruen19]

SOUNDS LIKE SOMEONE ORDERED A STUPID LOOKING BOSS AHAHAHAHA

[Majorasword64]

Have you ever heard of chris-chan?If you have,can you imagine what it would be like if he had a shadow?

[IcaraelTheWanderer]

@Majorasword64

It'd be Shadow Mitsuo all over again.

Except with man-tits and horrid anatomy.

[Majorasword64]

@IcaraelTheWanderer That and the team might not even be bothered saving him.

[RanBmaster]

Darkness is great, one can see better in it.

[canthandlemystyle]

i remember when i first heard this theme, ahhh...now i'm stuck in the f*cking sauna and i can't defeat big hulk hogan guy. they expect me to be level 25?! i'm only level 14 with 3 days left!! >,<

[1969highman]

i'm sure of that i can't defeat my own self, but...if you give me a PS2 controller i'm sure it'll be easy XD

[1969highman]

final boss: I...

me: a shadow the true self?

boss: am god..

me: CRAP!

[Majorasword64]

the anime of this game......It's AWESOME!

[MRGabriel123856]

28 people can´t face themselves

[Sokemon210Master]

@MRGabriel123856 1668 can (Inc me)

[deMoraC500]

"I am a shadow, the trueself." >w<

[Lostxsoul8o8]

hope theres going to be persona 5

[Marcell2881991]

@Lostxsoul8o8

It's already in development.

[nos4r3]

Best Rpg for me

[misidro15]

thumbs up if you want a persona and a good one

[swordfish1390]

Not often a game actually changes how you look at yourself and your own life. I'm not gonna lie, Persona 4 changed my life. I'm not ashamed of who I am and my flaws anymore.

[wizzrobe301]

@swordfish1390 Good 4 u! :D

[swordfish1390]

@wizzrobe301 :)

[emilons97]

never played the Persona Games but... I saw the anime and LOVED it!

[DarqueMinato]

@emilons97 Play them.NOW B*TCH!

[emilons97]

@DarqueMinato I might go try one if I'm able to find an Emulator that actually works for ps2...

[DarqueMinato]

@emilons97 No,seriously,Persona 4 and ESPECIALLY Persona 3 FES had an amazing influence on me.Some people like 4 more,but that's all a matter of opinion.

[elstormo]

@emilons97 PCSXe works perfectly fine if you can get your hands on a BIOS. I use it to play my PS2 games when my girl needs to use the TV.

[watfernando]

I am a Shadow...The true self!!!

[karensarahrocks]

Me:what the fuck! Shadow: i am a shadow the true self. Me: the hell.you are why u on a pole. Shadow: to show Me: Nu-uh moma didnt raise me to be a trick. NOW GET THE FUCK OFF THAT POLE BITCH. Shadow: But Me:but shut the fuck up. Shadow:but Me:NOW -wakes up- Me: aw yeeeeeeeah

[KetsuRosataMalnor]

Me: What the hell--? Shadow Me: I am a shadow, you're true self... Me: Go on. Shadow Me: Do I really have to explain this...? Me: Perhaps.... Shadow Me: Say that I'm not you, damn it so I can kill you! Me: And I would do that because? Shadow Me: Good point....I am you, and you are me. Here I'm gonna be your super powered persona that can kill things. Me: Sweet! *Wakes up* Me: Damn it.

[SodaCat16]

Wait, so, if Teddie was a Shadow, HOW THE HELL did he get a Shadow, and technically shouldn't his shadow have been a Persona?

[TearGrande]

@SodaCat16 To my understanding, Teddy gaining a sense of Self, and Free Will, made him no longer a proper Shadow. On top of that, aren't the Shadow selves just parts that a person is denying or hiding away, while the Persona is when they accept those parts? On top of that as well, listen to the lines Shadow Teddy says, it's pretty clear that it's being controlled by the Villian, if you know who that is :P

[KetsuRosataMalnor]

@SodaCat16*Possible SPOILER* Essentially, if you think about it, Teddie WAS a shadow, before he was Teddie. Teddie basically became something other then a shadow and gained a sense of self, making him as human as Yu/Souji. It's kind of explained in the Social Link when Teddie comes back if you got the normal ending sequence.

[mewtwoboy]

Best regular boss theme of any game in my opinion

[Mrsonic369]

@MrHyuponia My Shadow.....Probrably thinks that expections are just pointless. Just wants people to stop caring about it.

[HolyAllianceCora]

PERSONA!!!!!

[Marcell2881991]

"No no, that will never do! Patients must lie still for me to drill proper holes into them!"

[nesskirby7]

@Marcell2881991 best line ever

[MrHyuponia]

Take a moment, and think of who you are.

Who you TRULY are. How scared of you of your own self, your own darkest wants or flaws? Would you be able to do it? Can you overcome what you despise most in yourself? I wonder what our own Shadows would look like. It's a truly frightening thought.

[Natetendo69]

@MrHyuponia

I'm kind of a boring person with no real secrets. :U

[ZOMGaWEINER]

@Natetendo69 You are afraid to be out going thinking people would not like you, so you decided to be a "boring" person. xD

[Natetendo69]

@ZOMGaWEINER

...BY GOD IT'S TRUE. brb killing myself

[ZOMGaWEINER]

@Natetendo69 Noooouuuuu...! Wait never mind, I'll get a camera.

[DarqueMinato]

@Natetendo69 I wish I was like that...I have so many things to get off my chest and I can't just blurt them out to a random homeless guy xD

[XxCalypsoxX616]

@MrHyuponia But... what if I am my own shadow and thus my shadow would be a shadow OF my shadow which is already a part of me that I have accepted giving me more than one shadow or just 1 giant contradictory shadow that I accept yet refuse at the same time? GOD DAMN IT THIS IS FUCKING CONFUSING!

[CreationsFlare]

@MrHyuponia That....that was extremely deep.

My shadow would probably be all the angst and the anger of everyday life, along with the lusts and wants of my very soul. A scary thought to overcome....but then again, Id probably faint.

[Okamii007]

@MrHyuponia Honestly, that scares me i can only hope that i would confront my shadow alone so others wouldnt see my true self

[jk2782]

@MrHyuponia dunno. what does the internet look like?

[PineappleMafiaPro]

@MrHyuponia To be honest, every time I play this game (and believe me, it's my fifth time already, lol) I can't help myself but thinking about it. Honestly, if ''shadows'' had a real form, it would make psychology so much easier.

[gf246]

@PineappleMafiaPro nature would also be a lot more seletive, since people who can't accept who they really are would probably get killed by their shadows

THAT would be frightening

[PineappleMafiaPro]

@gf246 lol, you got a point there. never thought about that xD

[TheDeatharcana]

@MrHyuponia I live by who deep inside I am. So basically I'm a very ruthless and selfish person =3

[PerishEvil47]

@MrHyuponia To be fair, I may not be able to overcome my darkness, but the fact that I would get to see it would be friggin awesome.

[GentlemanAeon777]

@MrHyuponia

Oh god...

To think of that...

Abominations that reflect what we hate of ourselves...

I highly doubt I could overcome that...

[RoseBuddi]

I'm listening to this rather loudly on my new 2.1 speakers, and every time the chorus comes on I get an eargasm xD

[Kysen10]

Hell yes I found the song! for all those looking for the full version of the battle theme in episode 12 search youtube for "Never More -Reincarnation:PERSONA4 - I'll Face Myself -Battle-"

[kingboooo22]

lets do this PERSONA

[MultiLightning123]

@chaffXgrenade why did you say that i banished those memorys 5 days ago DAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMMMIIIIIIII­IIIITTTTTTTTTT [no offense]

[mushroomshrub]

Does anyone know where I can find the violiny version used in episode 12 of the anime? It wasn't in the game if my memory serves, but it was goddamn epic.

[gridiron760]

@mushroomshrub i agree the violin version from episode 12 was pretty epic

[srg1991nocturne]

@gridiron760 It was more than epic.

[Kysen10]

@gridiron760 i'm looking for that song now ><

[Desma76X]

@mushroomshrub It's from the Reincarnation disc released this year

[Kysen10]

@mushroomshrub was amazing.

[chaffXgrenade]

FEAST YOUR EYES!!!

*disturbing squishy noises* D:

[AKASUKIJOE]

its a toss up between death and the fool

[Plumegeist]

If this song isn't used in Persona 4: The Ultimate In Mayonaka Arena as the music for mirror matches, I'll be incredibly disappointed.

[JML5897]

I got Judgement

[GravisRota]

Hiero here.... hehe tough bastard..

[Kalakauai123]

I'm the empress... but I'm a guy! What the heck?

[DJKasres]

@Kalakauai123 What's wrong with that? It's not like Arcana are Gender-Dependent

[Kalakauai123]

@DJKasres oh...

[MrSturmthedark]

@Kalakauai123 Then again, the empress arcana does have connotations of fertility, motherhood, beauty, intelligence and wit...well, some of those aren't too gender-specific.

[islahG26]

i got the arcana 'aeon'! So cool!

[DeimonBlaze]

so cool !

[KayTheYatagarasu]

WTF....I found out I am Judgement and it perfectly explains me.O.O

[SonicSpecter11]

@DJKasres

It really is only something that I found on the earlier comments on this video. I also tried a quiz and I also got the Fool on that one. I dunno really but it's all in good fun right?

[animetomboy6]

You guys? What's the arcana's numbers so that I can figure out which Arcana I am?

[Yoshemo1]

@animetomboy6 Look up tarot cards. Its what they are

[DJKasres]

According to some online quiz thing I found, I'm Lovers

I'm not certain about this date one, doesn't do as well as a personality test, as the Shadow (Persona) within everyone reflects on who they are, not what day they are born

[ky015]

I love the begining of this song. Is tgere other songs like it?

[shadowminato1]

@ky015 check out persona 4 fog and persona 3 unavoidable battle

[PwnDealer]

@deathmaster168 Umm... Ara Mitama?

[deathmaster168]

By this system I would be.....Temperance? Crap I never really used that arcana. Are their any cool temperance personas?

[Left4chewing]

@deathmaster168 you can get your tarot card by your zodiac too.

[SonicSpecter11]

@Beldyne

Um, I'm sorry I don't follow. What do you mean?

[SonicSpecter11]

August 18, 1994

8+18+19+94=139

13+9=22

So that means I'm a fool... unless I separate the 13 which would make me death...

For some strange reason, now I'm thinking P3 thoughts in a P4 video...

[Beldyne]

@SonicSpecter11 Your born in the 20th century though...

[KetsuRosataMalnor]

@SonicSpecter11 Through this calculation I would be either the Hierophant or Temperance.

[zombieattak101]

That person is some bitch in a well

If you gave no idea what im talking about look up

Brad 4pp b**ch in a well

[Erden]

"Sounds like someone just ordered a stupid-looking boss!"

[Ryoukun16]

@Erden "AHAHAHAH---Ow."

[PwnDealer]

@Jingle041 Well, can you do a freaking backflip to summon your Persona, like Yosuke?

Yosuke: *Eyes flash across screen* Let's do this, Jiraya! *flips and smashes card*

[Ashbigbear]

Well im fecking loving the P4 Anime how about you guys?

[DarqueMinato]

@Ashbigbear Pretty decent.

[dragonquest8ftw1]

@Ashbigbear yeah just watched episode 8 english dub feel sorry for kanji though poor dude

[pikamaru82]

Song that plays when Chuck Norris brushes his teeth.

[Jingle041]

@pikamaru82 DIE, PLAQUE! DIE!!!

[isacc184]

rampage misses alot though........

[TayJwolf123]

Me: KANJI! I'M BACK AND READY!

Kanji: *Uses Rampage*

*All die*

Me: FUUUUUUUUUUUU- *BOOM*

[PwnDealer]

@darkfire6991 Nope. Cards > Evokers >:D

COME, FUUJIN! *breaks card*

[Jingle041]

@PwnDealer Gun... Cards that turn into solidified magnetite.... *Drops card in favour of evoker*

[RoofleMonkey]

OMG IT SO F****** GOD SONG I LOVE YOU

[PwnDealer]

*facepalm* I can't believe that ONE comment started this whole thing with the Arcanas... -_-

[888fevertime]

@PwnDealer Well, welcome to the interwebs! Still interesting all the same. Anyway, shifing gears for a bit... and going back to one of your old topics. If you (anyone reading this) had a persona, what would it be?

[darkfire6991]

@888fevertime Nekomata! *Evoker shot*

[Jingle041]

@888fevertime Daisoujou (I hope I spelt that right). Mainly because I could kill every that I see with a simple Samsara. Unless something survives, then I do it again.

[Waffersforever]

@Jingle041 Yea, Samsara and Die For Me! got a 100% rate as opposed to P3's 75%. So, as long as the enemy has no resistance to light, the enemies are screwed. I remember spamming Samsara on my P3 playthrough when I got it, laughing as the Hama Boost made it nearly impossible for enemies to dodge it :p

I've yet to play P4 though, but good news is that I finally found a copy at Gamestop, so I'm picking one up as soon as I get paid next week <3

[MrSturmthedark]

@Waffersforever It's not 100% I think - I spammed Samsara + Victory Cry in Naoto's dungeon after clearing it once (victory cry from kaiwan skill change) and some enemies managed to dodge it, even though they had no light resistance. However, the KO rate is still insanely high, especially with hama boost.

[AltF4]

@rogerrnt1990 selfception

[Kalakauai123]

@rogerrnt1990 plus 2

[Tsukiyomaru0]

[Teddie]

[Sensei, there's one enemy left!]

[SuperJimmyT]

April 16 1995

4+16+19+95=134

13+4=17

Star Arcana, kinda fitting for me considering how Setanta is one of my favourite Personas.

[adikkuchan]

@SuperJimmyT Lol, I'm March 8 1995. Do the math, and we pretty much have the same arcana lol.

[kamari11694]

@SuperJimmyT by that logic, im Death arcana

[Tsukiyomaru0]

@SuperJimmyT In Persona 3, I'm Aeon. In Major Arcana, I'm Judgement paired with Priestess and my unpaired is Strength. So I have FOUR arcanas.

[Guilmonhero]

This basically sums most of the shadow's personality before each fight.

Shadow: I am a shadow, the true self... What are YOU doing here?! I'm going to kill you now!

[PwnDealer]

@Left4chewing Ya, sry, I'm not really good at this. Just listen to what this guy said. :D

[Left4chewing]

I'm such a tarot card whore you know, here's a little help.

Temperance: Balance between spirituality and materialism, basically these people are well balanced.

Justice: Consideration, fair judgement, these type of people are always considerate. No joke my friend is.

Hierophant: At best, your guidance, they are the ones who keep tradition aliveAt worst the most stubborn person you'll meet.

Emperor: Leadership, authority and control of emotion.

Death: moving on, rebirth (yes I know), new self.

[dragonquest8ftw1]

@Left4chewing whats devil?

[Left4chewing]

@dragonquest8ftw1 that's kinda hard. It's a two bladed card. Take notice that the devil in the picture of the card is actually baphomet the half-demon-half god. Upright it represents being chained to your instincts. Like lust, greed, uncontrolled reason and so on. Reversed represents being free from it. However there's also another interpretation, upright represents scientific and material achievements. Reversed represents blocked potential or not believing in science. Eitherway it's not evil.

[PwnDealer]

@JaredDrake Lol, typo. I meant to say Tarot Card.

@iMGamer I'm pretty sure that Death would be your primary Arcana, and Emperor would be your secondary Arcana. I'm pretty sure that means that you have qualities of both, but you have more qualities of Death than Emperor.

[PwnDealer]

@LeonSpectacles Like I said, if you go beyond the number 22, you add the numbers together. 2 +3 + 5. You're a Hierophant. :)

[PwnDealer]

@JaredDrake I'm pretty sure that The World means a delicate balance of everything, or something. The Tarot Care shows a male angel with breasts, so ya. I forget, though.

[Left4chewing]

@PwnDealer the world arcana represents accomplishment and basically completion not balance sheesh. It's almost the counterpart to the fool arcana.

[Jingle041]

@Left4chewing The world represents 5-figures: a woman in the middle, a bird, a lion, a fish, and, I think, a kind of insect - most of the families of animals. So, technically, the world does represent balance, and the fool represents nothing; hence, the number is 0/XXII.

[Left4chewing]

@Jingle041 dude you gotta study it more harder, the animals represent the four fixed fix signs of the zodiac. The temperance represents balance, if you see it in the card she is holding tow cups of water, pouring the water down and mixing it with the bottom cup If you look carefully it's actually going up and the two waters are completly opposite temperatures. (sometimes fire is mixed but the water isn't extinguished). But eh technically the temperance is more suiting but the world has that too.

[MrSturmthedark]

May 18 1996.

World Arcana, hell yeah!

[iMGamer]

13 April 1994

13 + 4 + 19 + 94 = 130

13 + 0 = 13

Death Arcaba (Major)

Holy motherfucking shit!

1 + 3 = 4

Emperoer Arcana (second)

Does that make me Emperoer of death?

--------------

If anyone's interested in more, google tarotschool.

[LuteXLux]

@iMGamer Actually if you're going in that order, it makes you the death of emperors.

[iMGamer]

@LuteXLux

Yeah I know.. it just sounds cooler that way.

..now to find a connotation to death of emperoers..

[SuzakuV3]

May 25 1994

5+26+19+97 = 144

14+4 = 18

Moon Arcana. Fuck yeah, Seaking.

[LeonSpectacles]

May 28 1997

5+28+19+97 =149

14+9= 23

BUT THAT'S NOT THERE!!!!!

[SuzakuV3]

@LeonSpectacles I guess since 22 loops back around and becomes 0 for Fool, your 23 loops around to #1, the Magician.

[Jingle041]

@LeonSpectacles It goes from 1-22, 0 and 22 being "the Fool" (king for a day; fool for a lifetime). You're Magician, which is 1.

[darkfire6991]

SUN ARCANA HELL YEAHHHHHHH

[PwnDealer]

@burnerthehegehog Ya, my friend got that too, and he's a guy. Now I feel obligated to make you feel even more humiliated! :D The Empress symbolizes motherliness, and maternal instinct. My friend put on a Skodeward face and said, "DOES THIS LOOK MOTHERLY TO YOU?!" and pointed at his face. It was hilarious. :D

[JaredDrake]

@PwnDealer HAH.

March 21 1986

03+21+19+86 =129

12+9= 21.

THE WORLD!!! So...what does that mean???

[darkfire6991]

@JaredDrake Your Persona is Izanagi-no-Okami, you lucky son of a bitch.=.=

[888fevertime]

@JaredDrake Time Stops!

[PwnDealer]

20 = Judgement

21 = The World

22 = Fool

Hope that helped. :D

[PwnDealer]

@SharpmanPrime01 You would only ignore the double digits if they went above 22. The Fool Arcana is 0, but you can't have your birthday add up to be 0, and besides, in Tarot, the cycle begins and ends with the Fool. Here's the full list. 0 = Fool 1 = Magician 2 = Priestess 3 = Empress 4 = Emperor 5 = Hierophant 6 = Lovers 7 = Chariot 8 = Justice 9 = Hermit 10 = Fortune 11 = Strength 12 = Hanged Man 13 = Death 14 = Temperance 15 = Devil 16 = Tower 17 = Sun 18 = Moon 19 = Sun

[ttamecco]

JUDGEMENT YEAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

[Clicxe]

...mine is

FOOL!?

[RiegellaxlixErsaren]

June 12, 1989

6+12+19+89=126

12+6 = 18 (The Moon)

It seems to fit my personality a bit, but I still went with Hanged Man for my post since it suits me more as a person than the Moon. :3

[burnerthehedgehog]

January 4th, 1996

1+4+19+6 = 30

3+0=3

the empress...

My male senses say something is wrong here...

[RiegellaxlixErsaren]

@burnerthehedgehog In the first equation, you added wrong. You put 6 instead of 96...maybe that explains it ^^;

[burnerthehedgehog]

@RiegellaxlixErsaren ohh...me ams bad with math...

but wait, irregardless, i still got the empress...

[animakerdrag]

May 18th , 1995

18+5+19+95=137

13+7=20

Judgement Arcana

awwwwww yeaaaaah

[conkerCGH]

November 18th 1994

11+18+19+94=142

14+2=16

The tower arcana!!! :(

[Crok425]

March 6th 1995

3+6+19+95=123

12+3= 15

The Devil!? This sucks.

But I made a quiz in a site and I turned to be The Fool :D

[blarghblargh5]

I was born on May 16th 1998 so..

5+16+19+98=138

13+8= 21

I'm the world arcana :)

[ReaverNightroad]

Let's see...

"I am the Shadow...The True Self. Why must you continue on? With all the shit you endured, why not let death embrace you and free you from your misery? You continue on wearing that same mask, yet others wil not accept you for who you are. You could end all of your suffering with a single pierce, whether its your own heart or your "friend's" back."

Jack the Ripper

Death

Dark and Insta-kills?

[PwnDealer]

@shadowagent Maybe the shadow would scan you and read your weakness, which it would then use. I'm not sure, maybe it would just be like Rise's Shadow (except not a stripper...)

@SharpmanPrime01 My birthday actually works out to be 20, like yours. But if you go another step and add the 2+0=2, then that would make me the Priestess, I'm not really sure, but I like to go with whatever number first has an Arcana, because then, all the Arcanas that have double digits wouldn't be used.
