Most? It's probably been more like a year at minimum, after being passed from guardian to guardian before finally getting to Sojiro.

Wakaba was killed roughly two years before the start of the game, and thus Futaba was a complete shut in for two years as well.

Hardly most of her life, though it is important to note that she didnt have many friends, and the one friend she did have disappeared on her a long while before Wakaba died.

...You know, if they ever for some reason want to do a Death Note remake and Brad Swaile's unavailable for whatever reason, he'd be a great Light Yagami.

Ouch, that sucks. It's not conclusive by any means, but it's certainly not encouraging, either.

The closest thing to a mainline Persona game on a Nintendo system and we're not even getting it? Wack.

This is someone's fault, but I don't know whose...

Whoever isn't playing as Joker in Smash Bros., this is your fault.

Seriously though, this irks me.

Never thought we'd live in a timeline where Nocturne gets rereleased with a dub and a Persona spinoff's localization is questionable. Justice for Strange Journey Redux, I suppose.

Nintendo can make worldwide release happen. That's just how they work.

I bet SMTV being worldwide release is probably because of some deal they had with Nintendo. I just bet.

Sega/Atlus are just not into simultaneous releases, I guess.

Okay, I've beaten Shido's palace and I'm officially at 5's endgame.

Am I the only one who felt like Shido just didn't click as a villain? He's objectively a horrible person, but I didn't have much of a strong sense of loathing for him. I didn't really feel much toward him, period.

It's pretty much a consensus that Shido is pretty flat as a character. He's a good villain, but that's about the extent of his character. He's a catalyst for conflict and nothing more.

His character serves more to establish Joker's and Akechi's circumstances than anything else.

Don't worry, the third semester has a much more fleshed out antagonist....well provided you met the conditions to unlock the third semester.

He's responsible for screwing up almost half of the playable cast, I feel like that's enough reason to loathe him.

It honestly says a lot that his Shadow is capable of showing a but more to him than the man himself ever could. Including accepting his defeat with a dignity his other half never would and just tries to kill them all.

Every accusation by the GOP is ALWAYS a confession.

I kinda get it; Shido himself doesn't have much personal presence in the plot until his palace. His influence is more indirect, and because he's such a flat character, there's not much a personal rivalry with him especially when compared to Joker and Akechi's relationship.

Shido's a Hate Sink and not much else beyond that.

[up] Well that's kind of the point of shadows...they reveal sides of people that they otherwise suppress. Shido probably does have an honorable and dignified side...which he completely buried for the sake of his ambition.

I think it's more than that. There's no dynamics in his screentime. He doesn't really command his presence, he's just a really calm politician that orders sleazy things. There's no reason to fear him on a personal level, just deal with what problems he causes.

I mean, 3's human antagonists at least had that going for them by comparison. You can have simple villains that still command our attention.
