Persona 3 - Memories of the School

[Matthew2443]

I just sold my PS2 and bought an XBOX 360... That means I'll have to live without Persona... kill me, please!

[chavisfiction]

@Matthew2443 just tell me where you live and Ill make it quick

[lollypop292]

@chavisfiction I can give you my kitchen knives if you'd like.

[chavisfiction]

@lollypop292 ok how large are they? I need specifics to make mah work easier(if thats even a word)

[lollypop292]

@chavisfiction I have some pretty big ones :)

[ForeverFD3S]

@Matthew2443 Well, you can always pray and hope persona 5 comes out for the 360, I know I am.

[DarqueMinato]

@Matthew2443 Apparently,Persona didn't teach you to never lose hope xD

[hellmaker51]

i have just beaten persona 3 and all i have to is wow just wow. The story, the music, and the characters were just perfect. Though I did have some frustrating times in terms of the gameplay it was all worth to see the beautiful ending. Even though the ending seemed sad it wasnt i felt actually happy and a little more lighter. This is truly a gem, it was more than just a game it was an experience and memories ill never forget (and ill admit i cried a little at the end especially after the credits

[bloodydress18]

i'm so afraid of listening to this song. it brings back too many sadness from when i had to choose between closing his eyes or '...' and the screen still turned white either way. it felt like it was me who took the last living part of him away. URG, i HATE that white screen!!!!!!! *sob sob*

[zyonhunter]

Another year passes by... ;_;

[FrizFroz]

-You're getting sleepier...

-Your eyelids feel heavy...

>"Close your eyes?" FUCKNO.

>>>>> "..."

(screen whites out)

FUUUUUUUU

[wisefelipe]

@FrizFroz

I chose "close ou eyes". I just felt that it was unavoidable, with him having achived the answer to life and everything.

[MultiAncafe]

Dear Atlus

We (persona and SMT FANS) beggin you to relase P5 at 2012 T_T

BTWN:awesome melody

divided my heart into pieces

[looksleft34]

@MultiAncafe your in luck the development studio responsible for the Persona series is going to announce the "game everyone has been waiting for" which only leads to one happy answer ^-^

[TheK12314]

@looksleft34

... YES. JUST... YES.

[TheTearsinthesky]

"The wind feels so nice. This is my first time experiencing spring. But this season will eventually pass. After fighting along side you, and facing the world's end. I finally began to understand. What it means to live... Thinking for yourself... Not running away.. accepting the inevitable

[jcfatari15]

This song will have always bring back bittersweet memories that would make me shed tears

[35P4D4]

Only Minato can spend his last day of school resting on his lover's lap after saving humanity from certain extinction. What a guy. :' )

[CrimsonHybrid6VI6]

I listened to this just now while drawing AkiMitsu fanart. .__.

Is that bad? D:

[vittau]

I was almost crying, but the end was kinda abrupt so I didn't cry. Watching it again later, I cried. =P

[ballrogxbeast]

Come on, guys, it's not about "I will leave the school, I'm soooo sad" it's about:

"I know that I will die in one month" This moment of the game it's epic.

[tetification]

in the school there's like a jassier version of this song. Still the same sad feeling

[MrGames93]

@tetification You mean "Memories of the Garden", theme of school during january.

If you noticed, "memories of the school" plays in the end, while "memories of the garden" plays during a whole month.

My guess?? Mistranslation or confused-naming 0_o

[VintageBalderdash]

wow. This probably isn't the best time for me to be playing Persona 4 right now.

[bloodydress18]

noooooooo, all the memories of that moment is coming back, i dont want that, i'l cry again, noooooo *sob sob*

[JosephWolfieMartin]

I plan on making this the last song I listen to when I leave school at the end of the year. I'm a junior, and I cry every time I hear this.

[megurineruka3]

:( :) ^ _ ^

[neokaixa08]

dang, they should've made a REAL anime of P3 @_@... or at least, if they're gonna make a spin-off, include minako/hamuko arisato/ Female Protagonist in it!

[Aleroj44]

dude seriously, your comments are making me cry.. nostalgia :(

[EPiCHearts]

My dearest friends.

One day, we'll meet again. Soon.

Until then, farewell.

[KillaTequilla83]

I understand the heartache...my friends and I are all in a transfer college. Its bad enough you can make many new long-lasting relationships here, but my friends are all heading to different universities, different cities, different states... Then we'll all be out doing our own things. It makes me wish I'd have cherished those times we spent together a bit more, but its not as if we'll never see each other again..I hope.

[doortolight123]

Treasure every moment of your life, you only get one

[Advice Minato]

Spend 40 hours fighting trash mobs

[MasouShizuka]

Just cry, just..shed tears, right now..

[lovedestinyz]

*sniff*

Noo the game is almost ending...

[adem940]

this music makes me think weird things o_O

[megamanx1291]

@adem940

Like what? O.o

[adem940]

@megamanx1291 like my ex and such lol

[ANGRYMAPLE]

Didn't miss high school... but god do I miss college, and a very important girl... she's happier now so... meh what a shit year it's been, time to make up for it

[AverruncusFate]

Man,this caught me offguard. I was searching for a song called "Yor feelings"(Ar Tonelico),then I opened this link(without noticing which song it was)...when I was about to press enter in the search,this song started to play. I just forgot the other music.

[AverruncusFate]

Minato Arisato:Proving that you don't need to look holy in order to be the Messiah!

MINATOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO COME BACK TO USSSSSSSSSS!!!T_T

[monkeybananayum]

I've never been so depressed at the end of a video game in my life. This song brings all if that back. *sniff*

[Huperio]

damn ! i cant stop crying hearing this song *cries*

[dorkyolive]

Does this ever play in P3FES? :o

[shadowzapdos]

@dorkyolive yes it does. once jaunary starts, this begins playing in the school up until the final battle.

[naibalucian]

@shadowzapdos @dorkyolive Wrong, that's a slightly different version of it called "Memories of the Garden". This one only plays during the final scene of The Journey.

[shadowzapdos]

@naibalucian oh ok. i didn't know there was a different version. XP

[iiiHappiness]

Ah~ This would remind me of a graduation for a Japanese highschool...the cherry blossoms petals in the wind......ah. So peaceful....UNLIKE MY SCHOOL. Gum on the ground, loud noises, ugly looking building and trees. Why can't I be in a Japanese school like Gekkoukhan high? D:

[dori34543]

@iiiHappiness

The grass is always greener on the other side. I bet there are japanese students that are also saying "Man, I wish I could go to American school! That would be so cool! By the way, I think Japanese high school dudes graduate in the winter, so there won't be cherry blossoms lol.

[iiiHappiness]

@dori34543 They graduate in the spring. =u=

[naibalucian]

@iiiHappiness ...as shown in the Journey's ending.

"Graduation's today, isn't it?" among other things.

Bah, I don't want this series to become yet another Pokemon/FF. If anything, in P5 they should tie up all the loose ends from P3 and P4, somehow bring the characters together...and hey, maybe even bring Minato back.

I mean, it's already been hinted at. You can't just do something like that and then walk away like it never happened, AtlusJP.

Make.

It.

Happen.

[hardesthardcoregamer]

man i wish p3 wouldent end or at least have 5 follow the story because thay know p3 was the most famous persona game!

[SuperMinhoca]

@hardesthardcoregamer

and i wish they make an anime for it.;..

[hardesthardcoregamer]

omgthis is so depressing but so bueteful (i cvant spell >_>) sometimes i turn my ps2 on and play persona 3 just to listen to this.........i whant this at my funeral thumb this up if you whant it at yours.

[1zeldalover]

@hardesthardcoregamer I perfer memories of you.

[FandomLover101]

I will not cry....I will not cry....I will not cry...I will not cry...

Oh f*ck it!

SOMEONE GIVE ME A BUCKET

[koolyo911]

if u did not cry the u have a fuck up heart

[twisterkid99]

@koolyo911 I didn't because for some fucked up reason I cared more about the fact that I got the bad Ending so I could do NG+, rather than listen to the actual song.

[deathsinerz]

This game is THE BEST game i ever play before

[nfoster37]

I wish i could forget everything about this game and play it again to have that thrill I had when playing it the first time. :'(

[Kxisxmyxbf]

@nfoster37

I just finished i yesterday. Ever since than, ive had this weird feeling of mixed emotions. Oh, and lol I cried! XDD But...Im gonna miss staying up till 4am just to see the ending...*Sniff* I agree with you!....Im gona miss it...

[nfoster37]

@Kxisxmyxbf I seriously play that game over and over again :'( Atlus make me persona 5 now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Kxisxmyxbf]

@nfoster37

GAHH MAKE I NOW :0 PLZPLZPLZPLZPLZPLZ!!!!~~~~

[MsPandoR]

Minato, resting peacefully while Aigis is gently patting his head, sad music, a school rooftop, sweet breeze ... The recipe of manly tears was born

[no1lyksme]

@MsPandoR ***SPOILER***

Minato wasn't "resting" he had gave his life for the world and already passed on.

[Music2theTrack]

We All Made A Promise To Meet At That Place

[megamanx1291]

@Music2theTrack

:(

[RandiGURU19]

@AkimboNinjaPWN Not unless you kill Kyoj

[iVictoriaL0r]

This song is so touching. I swear I feel like crying everytime I hear this.

[CMW1995]

Aw man. I actually felt my heartstrings being tugged while I was listening to this. :,)

[AkimboNinjaPWN]

Things change. People move on. But memories last forever.

[GrotesquePlay]

It's very Trauma Center-ish. I like it. I have yet to finish the game tho. I'm on the last month. Dunno if I should replay, but this time around as a Girl MC

[Smileoscar]

@GrotesquePlay But before you replay you're gonna finish the game right? :O

[urlittlenightmare]

It's the end of the game, I swear I'm not going to cry, I hear this song, *starts crying* DAMMIT!!! T_T

[RobLance07]

Why do we all seek to rush throughout life? When we're kids, we wish to be teenagers. When we're teenagers, we seek to be adults. We only seek what everyone else seeks, the parties, the meaningless relationships, popularity. It may sound strange, but this song has taught me, in a most important part of my life, that life needs to be enjoyed as it is lived. A beautifully tragic and hopeful song, teaching us all a lesson that can't be taught. I dedicate this song to all who enjoy their lives.

[eliesak]

@RobLance07 i agree with ya.TT

[Wildwolface77]

@RobLance07 Now ain't that the truth, man.... Sad, yet true.... :)

[Yasmimm2011]

NO!!! I'm not going to cry! Not now!!!! ..... But I understand his death... it was to protect THEM! (I would say us all but we're not in the game, sooo....)

[kurayamidamiyo]

it reminds me of the time i had to put my weapons down i mean i really loved those sleepness nights fighting shadows with the crew but sometimes it just has to happen ima miss you yukidaruma leanne and the rest of the crew mitsuru founded to combat the shadows in america and my nodachi i named it the shadow cutter ftw. :-(

[TheStarsAreWatchingx]

Hello, Depression.

[innocenteyes14]

i really love this music.. it's so sad.. but it kinda feels like something good happened too.. hahahaha i dont know.. i just really love this.. Persona 3's story is so beautiful and makes you realize how great it is to live and how important your friends are..

[Steve1Redfield]

Don't make me hear this song , it makes me sad XD

[ShadowStrider09]

I feel I wanna say good-bye and leave.

[ForgerMike7]

@kyrind0r Hey hey hey... back it up here. Don't go planning your funeral yet man! It's like you choosing a wedding cake when you turn 1.

[HunterStudioMovies]

Illllll same

[Arkshire]

1 year in Gekkoukan High: GOLDEN

4 years in my highschool life: FULL OF CRAP

[PantheraLeoK]

@Arkshire so true

[carmine741]

I feel nothing now. *sigh*

[megamanx1291]

[SPOILER]

The last 30 days made me sad cuz of this music.

Shit is about to end lol

[shtdragon]

I would have this song playing in my head after I finish education.

[willzurmacht]

I'm so happy I'm not retarded. I thought I was the only one getting depressed whenever I hear this tune...

[shonenjumpfan]

Oh God, here comes the depression.

[dragonquest8ftw1]

this is why i like persona despite how old it is its still embedded in my head i remember how the game started with the city in a blackout to how he... died

[pokekid1231]

This song makes me cry its just my gf loved this game but passed away and this was her favorite song and i cant stop thinking of her she was my gf *He crys*

[Natalie2622828]

Finished replaying today. Dear lord, this song is so depressing. It makes me cry, yet at the same time I can't help but repeat it over and over because it's so beautiful. Persona 3 is so amazing, I personally liked it more than 4. It had a deeper, more tragic story, and such a powerful ending that makes you think things through in disbelief after you're done.

[teodortenchev]

Anyone know if someone made sheet music for this? If not I could try my hand at it, I've fallen in love with this song recently.

[DarqueMinato]

*sniff* . Nuff said

[deathsinerz]

nice soundtracks



[doggehbark]

This is depressing...But for some reason...I still love this, no matter how much I cried in this scene. :(

[piccguyz]

koro-chan.....

[BureauofBadBehavior]

That marty-stu Sora's got nothing on Minato.

Minat...o *manly tears*

[NataliePlz]

This song gets me every time.

[YosukeHanamurasLOVE]

Today's March 5th once again...

Rest in peace Minato & Hamuko Arisato~

TT^TT

[MzEnnaira21]

@YosukeHanamurasLOVE its not hamuko its minako

[wingsofhope2]

@MzEnnaira21

It's not Minako either. Mshe has no official name. :I

[aaronjacob25]

@wingsofhope2 It is Hamuko... :)

[Martinex213]

@aaronjacob25 Hamuko nor is the official name

[gravitee0]

the song + comments= me crying my ass off like i just beat persona 5... it not even out yet *sob*

[deathsinerz]

i like this game but at the end very sad

[godotccf]

I miss Minatio........*cry* damnit I want p5 to come out arrrrrrgggg

[cosmiclucky]

Makes me remember Minato resting on Aigis' lap, as he falls sleep, only to.... yeah...

[dori34543]

I remember playing this whole game over 1 summer. God, so many memories. I wish I could experience this exact feeling of beating this game all over again.

[SilverInnocence]

...I remember this song.

It was the last day of middle school, 8th grade graduation.

This song sudden played. (My iPod was on Shuffle.)

My closest friends were all going to a different high school.

I offered them a firm handshake.

As I walked out the auditorium, tears fell from my face.

Good bye, nostalgic carefree days.

[zeroxlulu]

@SilverInnocence I was happy as hell when i left middle school! but i know how you feel i felt sad on the last day of elementary but i didn't cry...

[gamemaster634]

@SilverInnocence thats really sad and i hope you and your friends are still togather but how did you get persona 3 soundtrack on your i pod?

[YangEzo]

@gamemaster634 well there are two ways you can either use the downloadlink slayer gave in the description or use the yt mp3 converter and then just move the data on your ipod simple as that

[justaguy7001]

@SilverInnocence goddamn same as me a few days ago ;(

[kawaiianimegurl]

@SilverInnocence im just ending my 7th grade year. fulll of complete shit but very sad at the same time. soon lil be starting my last year in junior high. its really going to by a bittersweet moment when it ends

[mak7070]

@SilverInnocence shoulda gave em a hug :...(. P;S you still see them right?

[clachua]

@SilverInnocence Perfect comment for the perfect song

[FunnyLilCat]

Memories of Gekkoukhan, but certainly not memories of my school. Worst place ever.

[Exorcistkanda]

@FunnyLilCat If only our school will be like that of an anime or game.

[Fly2theSora]

@FunnyLilCat hahah yea i agree its really the worst place ever would love to try one of those japan scholes which are based on this games school and all lol.

[5731217]

@FunnyLilCat True story. xD

[ThatDereKid]

@FunnyLilCat Exactly how I feel.

[BladeRaildramon]

....I can't stop falling asleep...

[KakashiBorage]

All of the friends you make are an attachment you could never break. You can play any other series like Final Fantasy and when you beat the game,yeah,you'll remember it but it'll never really make you think "Wow,It'll never feel the same".....I tried this game due to a good friend of mine and I was hooked from beginning to end.Nothing could compare to any game I've ever played to Persona 3.

[KakashiBorage]

This has to be the greatest RPG series of all time. Just the depth of the gameplay and the storyline is amazing itself.The music is some of the most beautiful I have ever heard. There isn't an experience like it in any other game. The friendships you create and thrive through.All of the struggles of battling shadows together. You will be connected with every character in this game. There is no disappointment in it. I cried during the last month of the game knowing "I'll never forget any of you".

[YosukeHanamurasLOVE]

Nyx disliked this.

[Agusloquillo]

@YosukeHanamurasLOVE

Well, duh! The only thing Nyx needs is an evolved Persona xDD

[ryodimos]

its called kimi no kioku and its one of the most beautiful songs ive ever heard

[Agusloquillo]

I already passed the part in Yakushima when Yukari accepts THAT truth, but her persona didn't evolve.

...Is that normal?

[kaibutse]

@Agusloquillo yep juz continue the story you get her evolved persona in no time

[deathsinerz]

haha it was nice

[superherox7]

To live life to the fullest, to never give up on friends, nor give up on their memory...No matter how much you cry or despair...Just push forward until the end. That's the meaning of this song to me, right now

[deathsinerz]

where can i find the piano sheet because i want to play it

[xxKOTAKkuxx]

@LOLcheerFUL yeah the time i finish P4 i google search for P3 and just reading the manga just make me feel like im already finished it.

curently has the portable version right now too bad they didnt include cutscene in it

[LOLcheerFUL]

Even though I have never played SMTP3 before, it makes me like I finished it before because of the songs and characters, on how they are connected and somehow, true to life.

[drockman92]

there are very few games that are this emotional. i was pretty ticked when shinji died. first off, it was really sad. secondly, he just barely joined my team.

[Malice813]

@drockman92 I spent the whole month leveling out Shinji and Ken and when I had to kill the boss, they weren't there Dx

[SolFZ]

"Don't worry...I will always protect you..."

[knightdragons7]

@NegStarnite93 well some of us don't have a PS2 but do have a PSP so is cool that we can finally enjoy the game don't be so selfish

and besides Even if persona 3 is WAY better than FFVII

overall megami tansei can't overcome Final fantasy

so i don't think is possible

[swordfish1390]

@NegStarnite93 that would be cool, but that would be the 3rd remake of the same game in less than 2 years, so i think portable was the last port of p3.

[MrGames93]

I believe that this song holds the very essence of the P3 game... I dunno, it's just magic to me... *sob* why? WHY? *cries a lot*

[klimsy99]

lol i was singing memories of you while listening to this

[snliker1000]

1 person isnt at peace...................yet

[ryukaze20]

So peaceful... And serene!

[AiguretDuren]

This song (and the game, of course) broke my heart. I love it so much. It took me at least 12 hours before I cried, but I cried. I heard the voices of my friends, present and past, in my imagination. I remembered the feeling of holding a friend who was dying from cancer and seeing her pass away. Persona 3 and this song especially will grow old with me.

[cadDude97]

I have decided that i want this played at my funeral.

[MrGames93]

Before my comment, i'd like to say that this song is actually "memories of the garden"; memories of the school is the same, but with some electronic bass.

Now my comment: PERFECT SONG!! In fact i liked it so much that, not finding in the net, i made my own tabs of this song!! Now i can play it wherever i want, whenever i want, with anyone i want!!

Sweet!!!

Seriously, every time i hear this song, i want to die listening to this, with my friends around me. Well, at least to say goodbye.

[BluntmanEXE]

When I hear this song, I imagine an ending in P3P where Minako goes to heaven and meets Shinjiro. and the two of them hold hands as they walk towards the Pearly Gates together, with Nanako's mother standing at the entrance, waving and smiling at them.

[SolFZ]

For some reason, you feel very tired.

You hear everyone's voices.

You feel even more tired.

Your eyelids are getting heavier.

>>Close your eyes.

>......

[mememe123123]

@SolFZ Don't worry, I will always be by your side, protecting you.

[DSAoftheSS]

@mememe123123

@catdude97

@MIyazakiLOVESYosuke

@rawdawg0508

FAGS

[mememe123123]

@DSAoftheSS LOL that means alot, coming from one with a picture of a fag on their channel.

[DSAoftheSS]

@mememe123123

So if Hue Hefner (playboy mansion extraordinaire) were to hang a picture of Ricky Martin on his wall it would automatically render him a fag. Lol, little boy go play with your anime dolls now and quit ruining the decent song with your shitty commentary about your socially inept life.

[mememe123123]

@DSAoftheSS So by your same principle, if I quote a part of the game - which happens to be where this decent song is from- that automatically renders me a fag? You should probably stop jumping the gun, and trying to make others feel bad before you know what you're talking about.

[DSAoftheSS]

@mememe123123

Quotes that aren't quoted. Haven't seen those in a while. As for trying to make you guys feel bad, you are dead wrong. I am just asserting my opinion on your asshattery. Replying the way you did makes you no different than myself, lol.

[mememe123123]

@DSAoftheSS I apologize, i forgot that you were required to write in an essay format when commenting on youtube. And my asshattery? Who's the one who posted "FAGS" first? (I quoted this from your post from 3 days ago. Happy?) Thusly, your opinion has been duly noted, and responded to as necessary by my opinion.

[DSAoftheSS]

@mememe123123

Not so much as an essay format but I replied to multiple people so my comment served for more than one purpose. Maybe it wasn't necessary, you're right, but do you realize that your comment still made you sound like a giant ass wearing a hat? Just saying.

[mememe123123]

@DSAoftheSS As long as you've realized your wrong. My job accomplished.I only did so to reflect your opinion. But if I offended, I apologize now.

Good talk.

[DSAoftheSS]

@mememe123123

Your first comment did not address any audience so it's impossible for it to ever offend. I think you are just trying to make me defend my pride. Good luck as you eloquently put it. And no, I have not realized my wrong because "your" denotes possession and I am not holding any wrong in my arms right now. I'll look under the bed.

[TheCheesyTurtle]

@mememe123123 Maybe he meant the "stick' fag.

[mememe123123]

@TheCheesyTurtle that is always a possibility ^^ but he didn't include it in his comments, so i took offence xD

[rawdawg0508]

good bye friends from high school........

[MiyazakiLOVESYosuke]

I will not cry, I will not cry, I will not....

-bawls llike a baby-

[rawdawg0508]

@MiyazakiLOVESYosuke *hugs and cries with you*

[MiyazakiLOVESYosuke]

@rawdawg0508 *hugs back and rocks back and forth with you, still crying*

[rawdawg0508]

@MiyazakiLOVESYosuke *still crying but stops*

[drockman92]

probably some of the best music score in a game that i have played. the intro for the answer was quite a shocker, though.

[angelheartnumber1]

"Paradise disappears when you close your eyes for the last time" i think this is exactly how i felt when i finished the game, this is so sad that i don't even know what to say...
