    I might have missed him somehow, but where is Funky Student? I've been checking the area on the second floor of Yasogami High somewhat frequently and I've never seen him.

    I have updated the wiki, as the new features list was pretty out of date. My list is pretty comprehensive, but I've only just finished Kanji's dungeon.

    OK, does anyone know anything about the new weather type, lightning/thunder? Does it count as rain? What I mean is will I get rare monsters in the dungeon like on a normal rainy day? Are there any other differences?

    Apparently I'm a really bad googler. Somebody let me know if you find a list of costume locations (Or do they just all come from Croco Fur at some point?)

    Kanji's voice actor forgot the voice. It's noticeable in all the new lines.

    That bummed me out in Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes. They rerecorded the entire game with the original voice cast again (only one guy was different), but several people just dropped the accents they had in the original game. Whatever, maybe that's what the voice director told them to do, but I didn't care for the change.

    Are you sure you're not imagining it? He sounded the same in Persona 4 Arena.

    In the bike scene, ski trip and extra dungeon his voice has less gravel in it. He sounds very smooth.

    So I just got to the new voiced stuff. He sounds exactly the same to me. I feel like you're imagining it. Also he sounds the exact same in the Persona 4 anime that was just dubbed recently.

    Also Johnny Yong Bosch voice really suits Yu. I mean he was Yu in the games, buy he didn't say anything except the Persona names.

    For my money, I'm really enjoying most of the additions so far, though I'm only to the bathouse right now. The only thing I really wish is that I'd started on a higher difficulty. I hit normal thinking it would be PS2 normal, but things are way easier than I remember. Seems like I level faster too, but that might just be me.

    Also a side note on Adachi's name being revealed from the get go. Not sure if this was already addressed or not but he's called "Young Detective" when you first see him in the scene where the first body is found. Dojima yells at him and calls him Adachi, which is why later on they just use his name proper. Can't remember if this was the case in the PS2 version, I just thought I'd weigh in.

    Looking back at episodes of the Endurance Run, Dojima does call him Adachi almost immediately after he is introduced, but the game continues to refer to him as "Young Detective" for quite some time.

    This. Also after revealing his name is Adachi, it refers to him as Young Detective again in a later scene. I think it's just a translation error.

    I can go to the hot springs via scooters with a team member and relearn a move I had them forget. Just found out in February when I ran out of things to do. Unfortunately, it was with Naoto whose move set is fine with me and is a part of my elite team of shadow killers. Might be great to keep a buff for awhile then replace them with something else down the line or vice versa.

    • When fusing Persona's you can straight up choose which skills they'll inherit instead of the dice roll. This is cool as it expedites the fusing process, but also takes some of the fun out of it in a way. No more chance element.

    Finally they add this. Constantly picking the same multiple persona only for the skill you want to not be there was repetitive as hell. I don't know how this is considered taking the fun out, this is streamlining I can get behind and something all future Persona games should do.

    I feel like in Persona 4 there was a system governing the inheritance feature. Something like if you want to inherit Bufu for example, your Persona cannot also inherit Agi. But now it's choose as you will. Like I said it's preferable this way, but also changes the fusion dynamic.

    That's not true. Most of the skills could be passed on to whatever Persona. The only restriction, I believe, was with unique skills coming with high-end Personae.

    Persona of certain types couldn't learn certain skills. You wouldn't see someone witha  fire weakness using Agi, for example. I think even Igor says this, in the Fusion tutorial thing. However Personas CAN have skills of different elemental types. My Beelzebub in P4 had  a skill of every elment in the game, except Almighty and Holy.
