Hello everyone,
Here we are for our weekly Shin Megami Tensei Persona 4 event with this fourth episode that seems to resemble the others in a very maniacal way to the point that the series is starting a bit to look like those with the "monster of the week" event.
Fortunately now that the main four characters are persona-ready, we will, hopefully, have some plot advancing episodes exploring the mistery around the school environment that seems to be the center of this abduction phenomenon.
What about the other 3 main characters? Well, I sure hope they won't give us another three episodes of this kind to show their persona, it would be a bit disappointing if that was the case.
The episode start with Chie going around in the TV world killing shadows one after another (she was really damn cool) in order to reach Yukiko and take her to safety home.
In the meantime Yukiko remember her past and her life as a caged bird in the household where she is born. A traditional life for a traditional-looking character.
When they finally arrive, the evil Yukiko start to fight against our heroes and, as usual, has the upper hand till when the real Yukiko decide to accept her other self weakening her just enough for our heroes to win.
I liked how Yuu is smartly using all the personas in his possession in order to fight, it surely gives the series that bit of additional detail to make the difference.
After this heated battle Yukiko Amagi finally join the team and gets her own persona that is...a bird with a big rack and colored feathers?!
Ok, I'll be honest and say that this was the most questionable persona I saw till now. I wonder if there is any other peculiar design for the persona of the remaining three characters...
Of course she isn't a prince dear Yuu, because Satonaka Chie is a queen! My queen! Yes, as you can wonder, Chie is still my favourite character by far and wide!
Her personality, voice and energetic behaviour are definitely charming and I doubt any of the other girls can compare with her. :P
Next episode seems to cover a new female character, but judging from the preview it seems she'll be an enemy more than a friend...
Concluding, I'm happy till now with the outlook of the series, but I hope they'll be fast to give us some answer to the many questions that we all have...
See you soon,
