    Not feeling it the way I did the original intro.
     
    Maybe it's the Male vocals?

    I like it.  It's very "James Bondish" in its presentation.  If you've ever seen a James Bond movie, you know how all of them have a very stylized opening that is similar even if they are all unique.  This video reminds me of those types of openings.  And I like the different music, too.

    @Agent_Lost: dude relax lol, Atlus hasn't even properly announced the Japanese version yet, all we've got is this leaked stuff from famitsu. The US version will be a ways into 2010 at best.

    Meh. I prefer the original Persona 3 intro, which is even more trippy and stylized.
    EDIT: I will embed it here for comparison

    I like the animation, but male Japanese vocals make me want to puke. Out of my ears, I guess.

    So dos this intro confirm that we only get a male "Ryoji"? 
     
    Also does the plentiful references to "butterfly effect" mena that changing sex of the MC effect the ending?  
    At 1:28 in the video, Aigis is on one half but who is on the reflected half?  Is it Fuuka?  I think so but that seems strange.

    Been holding off with P3 til I finish P4, so having it on PSP would be awesome due to the travel I need to do for Uni back at term time.

    Shoji's guitar is making me rock out with my Mr. Spock out as usual, but the vocals... I dunno about the vocals, man. Maybe they'll sound better in Engrish, but right now all they're doing is giving me "in-des-tructible!" flashbacks.

    The original P3 intro video was more awesome then that, especially the musical choice, but that wasnt that bad
     
    I guess the male vocals are okay but it sounds alot better when a woman is singing
     
    Now Im just waiting for a European release date and my guess is that Im gonna be waiting for a long time....

    Ditto. Even the FES intro was better.
     
    I see what they did though and it's cool how they are connecting it to the persona 1 remake with the butterfly. That wasn't in the original P3.

    The ultra trippy part starting at 1:10 was pretty neat too.  Oh, and you gotta love how Mitsuru's standing while Akihiko's knocked down.

    ...Well I know this is the P3P forums, but I'm gonna post the Persona 4 opening to show how awesome it is compared to any of these: 
     
      
       
     
    Persona 3 FES: The Answer's opening was also quite awesome for the tone it set.

    So that's what a James Bond movie intro would look like if set in a high school where kids shoot them selves in the head to summon demons form an alternate dimension, produced by Japanese people. I'd buy that for a dollar.
     
    edit: I prefer the os2 ones then the psp. My first true video game love was vanguard bandits and ever since i seen that games anime intro i hav e always liked them because they remind me of that game and the hundreds of hours i put into it. Sadly its anime looks very dated by today's standards since it was a PSX game. I would kill to see this game get a remake. Seriously, if you can get it made just name the guy and he is dead. ^_^ ...seriously.

    Well, that looks like crap now.  It's surely a good game, though.  I wonder how could anime possibly improve in the future to make today's anime look that bad...

    Stylish indeed. I preferred the original intros though. The male vocals aren't bad per se but female vocals tend to work better (even if it be in engrish).
     
    @wasteguru: Sounded like a challenge. And yes, it doesn't look much different if you do watch it upside down. (Whoever invented flippable monitors ought to get a medal).

    i like the new opening better than the original. However, P3 had two openings.
     
      First opening:

        Second opening:
      PSP Opening:
     
      My point: I hope P3P also has a second opening. I look forward to this.

    This intro's also confirmed they're not taking evokers out because of any controversy, so definite buy for me when I get a PSP go.

    P4 intro > P3 intro > P1 PSP intro > P3P intro > P3 FES intro, but they're all pretty awesome - especially compared to the opening clips we get for most other games. Thank you Atlus for putting so much care into what may seem like a minor detail but can really set the mood and leave an impression when done well.

    Hmmm?  If you have played The Answer, you definitely know what this opening is.  I'll try to find it, anyways.
     
    Edit: Found it.  It's basically the animated sequence at the beginning of the vid.  It contains Persona 3 spoilers so... yeah.  Or are we mixing up the words "intro" and "opening"?:

    EEEH, STEEEEEEEEVE!
    I saw them playing Persona 3 on On The Spot awhile back, and the whole shoot yourself in the head to summon your Persona deal was unsettling to say the least.  Then the Endurance Run happened and I wanted 4.  Was considering getting 3FES to hold me over until 4, but I just got 4 instead.  Now I'm wondering whether to get 3FES or to get a PSP for P3P and the Persona remake.

    Even in P3P you're still missing out on The Answer, which is the original conclusion to the story.

    @AuthenticM: You mix up the 1st & 2nd intro. The animated intro was the original intro of Persona 3, the rap intro was introduce in the directer cut, Persona 3 FES. The only thing is that in the Persona 3 FES disk they also included the original intro and the remix version.

    Ok, but that's not an "opening". That's an introduction; the beginning of a story. An "opening" is a collage mixed with music. Basically, some sort of videoclip. Following this logic, The Answer doesn't have an opening.
