#persona 4: the magician

[blue-bird-lamentation]

We don't talk enough about this panel comparing Yosuke to a red panda.

I know it was Yosuke who started comparing himself to a panda, being the new school "exotic" attraction at school (a boy from the city), but that small bubble with him and a red panda is so cute.

Daisuke had replied saying he is instead a red panda, as a joke because Yosuke is smaller (and thinner, he is pretty slender guy), but he suddenly realized he actually looks like one (it's adorable).

Also cute team balls + Yosuke moment, in addition to the part where Yosuke and Daisuke go get more vegetables for the event, and Daisuke's dialogue in game about Yosuke 😌

absolutely losing my MIND at this fucking panel

#i think this scene plays really well with the magician manga because that revealed the interactions yosuke had with kou and daisuke before #yosuke thought of them as being weirdly friendly but he hadn't realised he left a good impression on them #he thinks more pessimistically about all the people who think of him as a disappointment than the people who think positively of hin #i think part of it was also yosuke's reluctance and struggle with forming real friendships in Inaba #and also yeah im just gonna say it i thought this was leading up to a double date and that is what i choose to believe #p4 #persona 4 #p4g #persona 4 golden #hanamura yosuke #yosuke hanamura #narukami yu #he's good with his queue

The Butterfly Effect p4 drabble? draft? w/e?

Under the cut is a small test run of TBE's 'prequel' story, written from the perspective of Fool!Naoto (he/him). Featured in this prologue are Fool!Naoto, Hierophant!Eri, Justice!Yuuta and Aeon!Yu. Word Count: 714

Naoto Shirogane didn’t like trains that much. The long ride from Sendai down to Yasoinaba bored him immensely - the only thing he could do was scroll through his phone and listen to gossip about a local member who was having an alleged affair with a news reporter. He frowned, he wasn’t even sure where he was going, but was surprised when he’d received a text from the woman who would be taking care of him - at least, until his grandfather recovered;

Eri: Yuu-kun and I are waiting outside Yasoinaba Station

Eri: Text me when you arrive, okay?

Naoto: I’m on my way - I think it’ll take about 15 minutes

Eri: All right then! See you!

The train pulled into Yasoinaba Station, and Naoto sighed. He was here for a new beginning, that was what it was. A new beginning that had been met with awkward silence from his classmates at Sendai High - after all, he’d only just arrived there in his first year when suddenly, his grandfather’s illness got worse. At the end of March, he was taken out of Sendai and moved to a ‘family friend’ - Eri Minami, a woman who had been close to Naoto’s mother.

She’d also been forcibly moved from the city - following a divorce from her husband - alongside her son Yuuta - the Yuu-kun that she referenced in the text. So, she could relate to Naoto’s struggles moving from a big city to a small town. Naoto’s train of thought delayed somewhat as he left the train, with nothing but a small bag of luggage, with clothes and important items. He placed his hat back on, and sighed as he looked in his reflection in the windows of the train that was leaving.

It was strange, actually going to a place that recognised his gender… But it would work, after all, new beginnings and all that. He left the stairs at Yasoinaba Station, and was immediately greeted by his new legal guardian.

“Good morning, Nao-kun!”

Eri Minami was a tall, slim woman. She was probably in her mid-30s, Naoto assumed. She had wavy brown hair tied into a low bun, fair olive skin, and wore a simple, pale pink undershirt tucked into a pair of burgundy trousers, paired with a pair of magenta-coloured slippers. Over her undershirt was a matching burgundy peacock coat, stitched together with a deep purple ribbon. Naoto waved at her, picking up his luggage with a muted apology.

“How was the trip?” She asked, “It’s quite hard travelling such a long distance. I’m Eri Minami, by the way, but I think you already understand that.”

“It’s nice to meet you in person, Minami-san.”

Eri laughed. “Please, no need to be so formal! We’ll basically be family for the next year.”

Naoto noticed that standing awkwardly beside her was a brown haired boy, who appeared to be about 5 or 6 years old at most. The boy hid behind Eri’s pant leg, looking down awkwardly. Eri smiled.

“Yuuta, this is Naoto,” She greeted, “Naoto, Yuuta. You’ll basically be brothers for this year.”

“Wow, must be weird hearing that for the first time, huh?” She grinned. “Don’t worry, I got the information from your grandfather before you arrived here. It might be a struggle to get binders, but you can always ask someone to make them, I guess?”

Naoto nodded. It did seem quite difficult, but Eri seemed to be helpful. She began to walk off to her car, Yuuta in tow, and Naoto was about to follow them, noticing an individual who was walking up to the station — a tall, tan skinned young man, with a grey bowlcut, wearing a black jacket over a grey turtleneck, matching grey pants, a pair of bright yellow headphones around his neck and yellow sneakers.

As Naoto was about to leave, he heard the young man call out.

“Hey.” He said, as Naoto faced him. “Is this yours? You dropped it.”

The young man walked over with a small sheet of paper, which Naoto recognised as his handwritten version of Eri’s address. He paused, blinking.

“Thanks?” He said, as the young man nodded.

“I’ll see you around, stranger.” The young man said, walking off.

Naoto paused. What a strange encounter. It seemed like this would be normal for Yasoinaba going forward…

if the p4 the magician manga gave us anything it was yosuke canonically using kaomojis

#persona #persona 4 #persona 4 the magician #yosuke hanamura #my post #reading it again don’t mind me #since his eng txtin style is apparently a localization (devastating) it doesn’t appear in the translation I have #combine the two and you get something like #omgOMGomG (((o(*°▽°*)o))) #it’s also very funny (and sad) chie/yukiko/daisuke/kou/some bg characters are like hey hanamura u worked rlly hard today go take a break! #wanna go out to eat with us? you should come by our stall! #and yosuke is like THEY ALL HATED ME. and obviously some do (like in game) but it’s more about Yosuke’s shame in being in a small town #and self esteem issues #see: not wanting to share any of it with his big city friend #‘’UGHHHH SO EMBARRASSING’’ withdraws from attempts to make genuine connections. maybe bc it feels like giving up and Accepting His Fate #it’s too late now yosk….you’re a country boy #anyways what was I talking about.

#p4 #persona 4 #persona 4 golden #p4g #hanamura yosuke #yosuke hanamura #you know for all of yosuke's behaviour i think its very clear that he doesnt really see the girls in the IT as prospective dates or gfs #i think its just because this was such a “bro” moment that it was so funny #it also reminds me of that scene where chie complained about him calling her up to tell dirty jokes #it's funny to me because yosuke is simultaneously so conscious of gender roles and lines but also like... not at all #like hes only familiar with them in the abstract but also sometimes just... not at all? #in the magician manga his hometown friend group is mainly other typical teenage guys that also have that similar type of humour #they play pranks on each other they talk about girls and the smut they read - you know that bro type #and i think its the kind of friendship that yosuke is familiar with so he carries it over into this friend group as well #except of course it doesnt really go over as well because 1. the connections here are deeper and not superficial #2. this friend group is not made up of that type of bro dude #rise asks if this is something he really should be talking about in front of girls and i think it speaks to a lack of awareness on his part #the swimsuit incident aside i think yosuke for the most part just seems to forget that half his friends are girls #i think him signing them up for the pageant is precisely the kind of stupid prank that bro dudes play with each other #and of course it was extra funny when chie does exactly that to him #hes so stupid (i love him) #he's good with his queue

So the correct way to play Persona 4 Golden is to grind out Golden Shadows in the steamy Bathouse, to the point you max out every available Persona you can carry and register, get every stat to 50 with Izanagi, reach level 68 - a 40 level jump from the previous dungeon - and two shot Kanji's Shadow with an Auto-Tetrakarn Power Charged Heat Wave, right?

Or am *I* the freak in this scenario?

I never claimed to be a sane person.

If you are a persona party member of the Magician arcana, there is a good chance that you are in love with a woman who you can never date (probably because she’s dead).
