Endurance Run: Persona 4 - Part 113

I'm not sure if Jeff and Vinny had done this before, but if you get a favorable result in the exams you can thentalk to Nanako for an item that can be received nowhere else and that only the Main Character can equip.  I think they've talked to Dojima for money before so they should know the amount he gives is bigger the better you do in the exam.

how awesome would it be if someone took the ER and made a video of all the great moments.  I'd sure buy that.

It really, really bums me out that both Vinny and Jeff seem to know how the end of the game goes. ER was so much more fun to watch when they would just flip out every time something crazy happened. I'm worried now that even if they get the true ending, it'll be more just "called it" and "WELL WHO COULD IT BE? /sarcasm" as opposed to genuine surprise.

That said, the culture festival is coming up, and I can guarantee that THAT will be an interesting, long episode.

you should take the advice and do margaret social link since you can basically  get it done in 1 day someone posted a guide in the comments on margaret

heres the link http://www.giantbomb.com/guides/persona-4-margarets-request-quick-reference/1201/

also there is some mysterious man in the shopping district that you could only talk to when you have your knowledge up to sage level ( i didnt do this yet and im at the endgame i think that will start  the naoto social link )
 either that or talk to naoto on a sunny day because you needed to have sage level knowledge to talk to him

"20 centimeters... what is what? like 10 feet?"

Woo, 69 minutes! >=D

I can't wait for the culture festival episode. I bet it'll be awesome. ^^

*wonders which side they'll sit on*

I'm pretty sure you need to have Knowledge and Courage maxed to establish the Naoto social link. So Vinny, keep reading them Man's Life books.

Yeah you need both Knowledge and Courage maxed to start the Naoto link, which is awesome.

I can't help but laugh at how every single time Jeff and Vinny make fun of Charlie's attitude towards his curtains. It is pretty hilarious. Charlie doesn't give a damn.

Also, FUCK YOU GUYS. Next time you shout that fucking loud I'll drive down to your places and choke you bastards.

@Yosuke: GIRLS DONT HAVE BALLS.

*buh-boop!*Achievement Unlocked: France is a prestigious nation.

If you get SLink 10 with everyone and get everyone's thing (picture, bracelet, etc) do all those items form like Voltron or something?

Are Sexy Teacher and Devil Nurse sisters or something?

The important thing about getting the top score on the test is not really the S-Link boost (since you've already completed the S-Links for most of your classmates), but that Nanako will give you a unique accessory. It gives you triple evasion to all magic attacks, which is incredibly useful. You also get hella cash from Dojima and some nice items from the Egyptian teacher, who is near the stairs on the second floor. Now that you have max Knowledge, all you need is to answer every question correctly and you'll get the top score.

Cheating is only cheating if you get caught.  Also, Naoto has balls, for a girl.

Naoto is stacked?!  I wonder if she'll put on a dress to look pretty if you Slink her all the way.

is it just me, or does rise move way faster than the other girls? anyway this episode was awesome. i would've laughed so hard if, when nanako reached ten and said "i love you, big bro," a dialouge option that said "the floor good for you?" appeared.

" Naoto is stacked?!  I wonder if she'll put on a dress to look pretty if you Slink her all the way. "

Things grow when touched huh?
Chie, meet me after school. Behind the toolshed.

Theres something about the way that Rise stands that pisses me off.

You guys know Kanji has the same voice actor as the main character from Red Faction: Guerrilla(Alec).

 Love the ER today :)

lmao "Bruschetta chips, whats that like.....fritos?"

I'm impressed with Rise's commitment to always keeping her elbows and shoulders back to pop out her... satellite dishes.

 To get Naoto as a girlfriend you need to get certain answers correct. Here they are if you look.


 Rank 5 to 6 final options 1. im glad your a girl.

 Rank 7 to 8 second to last options 1.Protect Naoto. final options 1.Because i like you.

rank 9 to 10 for a intresting event pick  2.*"I" Would be nice.

*2 Translation Note: More formal "I" used more commonly by girls.

 You will not have alot of time with Naoto so when you unlock her use every day you can and get as many answers correct to speed it up.

"shouldnt she be pregnant".....god great lines

Great episode guys. And about fishing, another tip:The size of the fish depends on the amount of vibration on the controller. the larger the fish the larger the vibration. The red goldfish has the smallest amount of vibration so be sure to feel for that.

So basically naoto has got MASSIVE MELONS...thats pretty HAAaaaaaaaWT.

WOO, Naoto is racked out! Also, I'm starting to think Dojima and Young Mother should hook up.

Does popularity really lead to intimacy?  They've already got to tenth base with two girls without exam results seeming to have anything to do with it.

 The best part of this episode is them refusing the Huge Fish when they need it for the very last Fox event, if they even get that far.


 That means MORE FISHING.

Anyone else yell at the screen when they didn't buy the huge fish?  Not that it matters if they never get the goldfish, but otherwise that was a mistake.

Didn't somebody in the comments say that regarding the ending, saying No to whatever Yosuke asks in the hospital at some point was important...my brain's ally fuzzy. I need penguin crackers. Also...soebody make a montage of Vinny saying "Kaching" every single time.

Nice and meaty episode.

The whole is it alright to be talking about high school kids bust sizes is fine in Japan remember the age of consent is 13.

" Anyone else yell at the screen when they didn't buy the huge fish?  Not that it matters if they never get the goldfish, but otherwise that was a mistake. "

I hope they spend some time with Naoto in the future she was my favorite going through and if you take fan sites/fics and the like in the mix the internet's as well.

Shoot, Vinny. Stop skipping so much dialogue!

" @Orbi: why would they choose the bad ending? "

I totally confused Naoto's S-Link with Nanako's S-Link in my comments last episode. Naoto is the one you want to MAX. Nanako's final persona is good and all, but not like Norn.

Bring the GB crew ice cream if you want to get to rank 10 with at least Jeff.

Hoe! Get off my fucking penguin!

Actually Yuri Lowenthal (who's Youske) is Ben in Ben ten Alien force. Not Ben ten. XP
It's a hard adjustment coming from Persona 3 to 4 where in 3 he was the main character and also Ryoji (and the child at your bedside.. whom is adorably creepy)

I'm missing Vic Mignogna (who played Junpei in 3) he really made the game for me. Too bad he didn't join the 4 cast. That would have been sweet.

Also, the main here (whom they named charlie) is a english voice actor and former black power ranger: Johnny Yong Bosch, he's also the same voice for the Young Detective.

This all together get's me excited for persona 5 (hopefully Atlus will ride this cash cow) and who the lead 'voice' will be then.

Great vid guys glad you got nanako up to max!

This is something I actually learned about in my "What is Religion?" class.

"In Jungian psychology, the shadow or "shadow aspect" is a part of the unconscious mind consisting of repressed weaknesses, shortcomings, and instincts. It is one of the three most recognizable archetypes, the others being the anima and animus and the persona. "Everyone carries a shadow," Jung wrote, "and the less it is embodied in the individual's conscious life, the blacker and denser it is."
( Source - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow_(psychology) )

It came up when we were talking about Jung's Quaternity, and how it relates to religion and society. We talked about how society used to have a release for the negative energies that build up inside of us, but now we don't. It is why we have so many holidays, but eventually they are neutered and no longer serve the original purpose.

It's actually a really interesting topic, if you're into that kind of thing.

"Figure 10 shows a model of the psyche as an open system (adapted from Jacobi 1973). Here the center of the psyche is the Self, balanced by the ego together with the shadow balanced by the persona. This model illustrates the open nature of Jung’s view of the psyche. At the conscious end, the persona acts as a filter for the ego to the external world, while at the unconscious end, the archetype of the anima or animus acts as a filter to the collective unconscious. The persona is created by the ego as a defense mechanism for the shadow and the two energies tend to balance each other."

These are some notes from my class: http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2527/3772649502_2f68a0b9c4_b.jpg

Also, the school year (for me) is April - July (1st Semester), and Oct - Jan (2nd Semester). I actually just started my summer break.

busty teacher always makes my day

Gaaaahhh not buying the huge fish means you have to do a load of fishing at the end of the game on the rainy days. ;_;
