P4 Anime Episode 2
Oct. 14th, 2011 01:44 amGoing to try to keep my reviews on these episodes a little shorter than the first one and try to do this one without a cut and spoil-free. XD
The opening changed to the song from the trailers. Which is kinda what I expected it might. But was still nice for them to put the original song in the first episode. And I don't mind as the song is still by Lotus Juice and it works well and I love the animation for it.
The events for this episode were done a little differently than how they were in the game but it makes sense and it worked well. And well you kinda have to change things around when you turn a game into an anime because things don't work the same way when you're just watching it and not playing it. I like how they did the fight sequence especially. Had Yosuke actually involved in it instead of just passing out. Wonder if they'll do that for all of them instead of just having them talk to it after the fight. 'Cause it worked well. And the punch bit amused me. XD Especially with Souji being all "...oops." Pffft! Though wonder if they'll keep in the later punch bit or not. Or if they'll even really do the social links. Guess depends on how long the series ends up being since they would need at least a full 24-26 to get all the main plots and at least some of the social link parts (I think they should at least have some as it lets you get to know the characters so much better but at the same time, I could see why they might skip all of that). There's only 12 episodes confirmed so far so we shall see. It would be a shame if its only that long as that would mean skipping A LOT of stuff.
