***P5 spoilers***Elizabeth succeeds in freeing p3mc but his time floating in the abyss has deranged him and using the power of the universe arcana becomes the new big bad(or at least a bonus boss)***end spoilers***
i played P4 first and it's only because of that i made the effort to track down a copy of p3 fes and so i've found them equally awesome but i will say p3's story is much better
i'm in december now i ended up using akihiko, junpei and yukari. i would have used mitsuru but everytime she's in my party she spams status effects on the enemy which hardly ever work regardless of what tactics i tell her to use.
