Actually, P4 is in the same world about 2 years after the events of P3.

This is known because Chihiro makes an appearence as a senior now.

Also, Igor's new assistant, Elizabeths sister, is taking over while Elizabeth is off "saving a boy from a wall," if I remember correctly.

For rabid fans of the series (such as myself) the meaning of this is clear. She's saving the main character of P3 from the wall that holds back Nyx and that other, greater shadow.

However, I'm wondering about the implications of this, as it's the MC of P3's spirit that basically IS the wall... Maybe this will come up in P5, since the series is almost guarunteed to have a fifth (technically sixth...) installment.

Atlus wouldn't possibly leave their fans wanting, would they?

Emilie Autumn, in the middle. She's amazing. That is all.

Do you know what connections you can make from P1 and P2 to any of the other games? I want to see if I can find an American version of the older games on Ebay... But, whatever.

And omg, Chihiro was my girlfriend in game!! How dare she break up with me and make an appearance in the newer game. *cry*


Thanks for reading!

Well... Persona 3 was the start of a whole new Persona era. The MC and alot of other things were different, with very little reference to the original 3.

Actually, if I remember correctly, the only direct reference story wise to the first two in Persona 3 was the online game, Innocent Sin Online.

This was a reference to one of the two Persona 2 games, Innocent Sin and Eternal Punishment, IS being the only one that came stateside (because EP had a gay social link and a few other "taboos," I believe).

However, while the first two Personas were directly connected, the third has no major storyline connection to them. Even Igor didn't exist in the first 2.

4, however, will be based in the same world, and will have the same Igor, but I'm not sure if there are any other, more direct, connections...

Aww, lol.

Poor Aniki.

BTW, who else pre-ordered it so they could get the artbook?

And who else ordered the social link expansion pack on Amazon?

Basically, I'm asking who else is a member of the Atlus Faithful, lol.
