Honestly the fact she talks at all makes her status as a playable character uncertain, considering the series almost uniformly has next to no voice acting for the MC. I really hope she is, and her being a focal point makes it seem very likely, but still. Aigis in The Answer really is the closest analogue... Or yeah, Marie.
All of the characters from that school have a pin with their year on it and her pin has a "1" on it.
People say it's not FemC cause of what she says. But she's talking to Akechi, so is it not possible she's just bullshitting him to not bring attention to herself?
Looking back on it, might not be FeMC. Joker is in the second year while this new character is in the first. Also I don't know Japanese but people on the net are saying she hates the Phantom Thieves. I honestly don't know what this might be tbh.
The pin on her blazer says 1.
Man i have basically zero expectations with Atlus since they pretty much always disappoint me....and if this is indeed no FemMC like it looks now, they somehow managed to disappoint me even more than usual, since they made me think they would for once actually not disappoint.. God damn
They just won't show her in Smash until after Atlus concert annoucement. Joker for Smash is obvious coming after the concert.
This is why I truly never thought P5 was coming to Switch, something always felt off - they would have announced it when Joker was announced I think.
If SMT is a Nintendo thing and Persona is a Sony thing thats fine, probably would have made more sense to have a SMT guy in Smash though if thats the case.
Basically do we think (without P5 being on Switch) Joker in Smash will sell more DLC to core Smash fans and possibly outside Persona fans than a character already beloved/known by the core Nintendo fanbase?
Comparisons to Cloud are stupid as well IMO, he is easily the most iconic character in the FF franchise and hugely popular and known guy in gaming just in general. Joker is not.
A better comparison for Joker would be if they had put Lightning in Smash.

They prolly can't talk about it. Joker prolly isn't coming till late April for Smash
because its not a rerelease, this seems like something especially targeted at those who already played persona 5.
Ok thx.
I believe one playtrough should be enough for me because the game takes a lot of time...
This would be nice, just something that doesn't require me to replay the whole game over again. But idk.
I don't see it being a "sequel" as:
1. The "Take Your Heart" video screen is part of the trailer, indicating the Phantom Thieves are still active so this be would be like mid game.
2. The ending
they lose their powers
We have no information on this yet or new content additions.
But I hope so.
Edit: Beaten like Atlus just beat me.
Oh, it's Akechi?
It could an excerpt from an extended version of this scene then, maybe?
If there's one thing I've learned is that there are fans who literally have their art tools up and ready whenever a new announcement is imminent.
Ok she looks exactly like Hamuko, they know what there doing and what people will think.
(That fan art is good, it's amazing ho
Maybe joker is in smash because the persona q are on 3ds with Atlus we never know unresonable is their second name
Didn't people hate the game for being super long and a bore fest? I feel like adding more content might amplify the problems people had with the game. Hopefully Atlus is fine tuning the experience as a whole.
There was a new character on an episode of My Little Pony who had fanart before the half-hour episode even ended.
Said character was introduced like ten minutes in.
Honestly that would be cool as shit. A FES style game starring Nanako would be cool
I'm just saying......
The eye and hair color are completely different in the game itself.
I'm just saying......

Too early to come to conclusions. "P5S.jp" still exists and is supposedly a Switch version of a Persona game, we don't know what game that is meant to be but considering leakers and insiders have stated that both P5S and P5R is the same re-release (which this trailer kind of disproves by pushing the whole "what-if" scenario) and that it's supposed to release this fall, I wouldn't put much stock in word going around. Best bet is just to wait till Super Live, tbh.
If we don't get an announcement for "P5S" at Super Live then we'll probably not see it for a long time. That's what I think, anyways.
I know hardly anything new other than she's a new character who either is another Marie or she's playable somehow given the Smash datamine. Lame, Atlus. Announcement for an announcement for an announcement. I hope this is something worth playing for Persona 5 fans though.
Calling it: She is a female protag, however, she doesn't replace Joker. Instead, it's a new story/campaign entirely.
There's also E3, it's big enough to be there since it's a new game that should get released later this year.
Currently the most reasonable guess imo, especially if she's playable in Smash.

I kind of like the slow tease, it's definitely an Atlus thing but it gives off the feeling that this is an actual proper follow-up to Persona 5 in more ways than one.
This might be a wild prediction but I genuinely wouldn't be surprised if the Japanese version launched in Winter 2019.
