It’s ironic. Chidori’s persona is Medea, a woman who gave everything to a man only to be betrayed in the end, but Chidori gives her life to Junpei but he stays faithful to her and never abandons her.

Everybody is talking about how the VA's performance on the screams is phenomenal, and I agree, but that "BURN IN HELL" actually had me screaming right alongside Junpei bro. I will admit Jin getting cart wheeled like 3 times into a wall in OG P3 was fucking hilarious (I watched the og version of this scene after seeing it in reload) , but still. Junpei is like my favorite character in this game atm (just got passed this scene.) Hope he doesn't die!

This scene will always make me ball my eyes out and the fact that they animated and added even more to the scene is truly phenomenal. It also has the best resolution in the entire series. Junpei’s voice acting, motivations, development and persona fusion are top tier in every way. It’s now cemented itself as my favorite scene in any persona game and I don’t think that’ll ever change.

For how good the voice acting in this game is, this was phenomenal.

No matter if is Original, Fes, Portable, Movie or Reload, this part always hurt a lot, especially the scream Junpei's Va gives on Reload it feels genuily anger, and Living with determination is a stab on the heart. I'm crying

This was another scene I really wanted to see with the announcement of 3R. Probably my favorite or tied for my favorite non protag awakening in Modern Persona. Junpei has such a incredible character arc in the game, going from a immature and arrogant teenager who wants to be significant to Da Man. Zeno Robinson absolutely killed it in this scene, and as Junpei in general. Stellar recast.

All death scenes in Reload are so much painful than in the original, Shinjiro and Chidori's death scenes are so much better and painful, the flashbacks that Junpei had for her and seeing him cry and screaming.😭😭

Junpei in the background during the fight is just too much, also she didn't die first turn, only to suffer more is even worse

Dude this still hurts when you rewatch it, so much emotions for this scene 😭.

Zeno Robinson deserves a nomination for best VA on this scene alone. He NAILED it.

Okay, gotta say junpei and chidoris persona fusing is still kind of cool. Man accomplished persona fusion without using the velvet room or being a wildcard.

This scene is the reason I am going for the true ending. Gotta do it for the bro Junpei and his girl Chidori

I love this, because it was the first time you saw Takaya rattled. Like 'Oh shit. They may be more than a small problem.'

This hit so hard, the moment Takaya spoke I wanted to beat him into dust.

This is the girl who will do everything for the person she cherish the most

Its a good thing that its very canon now that Chidori is still alive (Anime,P4 Combat game,and all of P3 games as long as you played it right.)

Ok I’m just gonna say it. I like Zeno Robinson as Junpei infinitely more than Vic Mignogna. This dude always knocks his performances out of the park!

I LOVE ATLUS FOR MAKING HERMES AND MEDEA FUSION CANON FROM PORTABLE!!!

Junpei’s scream made it sound like he was about to transform into a titan.

I’ve heard Zeno Robinson screaming as Genya Shinazugawa, so I knew his scream as Junpei would be SICK.😢

So hey Geoff maybe it's about time a Persona game gets a Best Performance nod? Also I accidentally had I'll Face Myself set as my battle theme for this fight and it actually made this more impactful.

Man, tears coming down bc of this scene gets me so damn much. I played the original as well it's godlike

I wouldn’t really call this a boss fight now since the fight ends after a few turns. Just survive long enough and the fight will be over.

IVE SAID IT SO MANY TIMES AND ILL SAY IT AGAIN. ZENO ROBINSON IS A PHENOMENAL VOICE ACTOR AND DESERVES ALL THE RESPECT. I met him at MomoCon and he’s legitimately one of the best people I’ve ever met.

Chidori and Junpei is one of my most fave ships in persona, i cried at this part

Goddam onion ninjas...

I always imagined that after Jin threw the smoke bomb both him and Takaya perfectly swan dived at the same time off the bridge and into the water.

So now Chidori is buffed more, but showcases her change and ends automatically.

Peak story telling. Nothing else to be said.

Junpei is a mentally strong guy always being dependant on making others happy through laughs just to deal with this a very realistic character from thinking he's top dog to knowing he has a long journey to reach his goal.

The ONLY game over I got in the entire game was during Chidori's fight. I'm not even kidding. She opened with Maragidyne and killed 2 of my party members, then killed the third one with the 1 More she got. I tried reviving them but then her Neuro Slash crit killed MC. I can't believe the only battle I lost in the entire game was a scripted fight LMAO

this scene was so epic in the original mainly because the strega members literally SAW Junpei's persona evolve in front of them I felt like this scene should've been an anime scene and we saw a beautiful fushion between the 2 ....and that Junpei would then completely pwn both of them at once not just Jin ....even if it was only for that scene I wanted to see them hit with the Blazing Hell spell .....at least they also kept the other option with Chidori if you do the right things ......

I always figured Takaya was buffing his gun with his Persona. Because Persona users get shot...a lot. Like not only Aigis but Naoto and THAT character from P4, not to mention the Shadow's in this game that literally have guns like the Chariot Shadow. And none of this is accounting for stuff like those tanks that run over you doing more damage than a pistol ever could, or the fact they can dodge literal electricity. So Takaya is using Megidola in his gun or something. Because there are way to many guns in this series for his pistol to somehow do this if it was normal.

Wow. Either you were just underleveled (not helped by the fact you brought Mitsuru), or Reload really buffed the hell out of Chidori. If so, I wonder if Takaya and Jin got the same treatment.

Boss fight starts at 3:58

The Resolution is a lot better here. Because Junpei sounds like a broken man here. He died but came back to life. But it came at a cost. Strega is partially responsible for Chidori's death so his anger towards them is justified.

This genuinely hurts because Chidori is one of my favorite P3 characters. Spoilers ahead I know she can survive this, but that doesn't make it any less sadder

This is basically the story of the funny dude in the class and why he's funny. Sad backstory

I mean takaya could just fire another shot at chidori instead of waiting for her to revive junpei

I see relaod is just as happy as the originals (haven't had money to buy it yeah unfortunately)

Someone needs to mod the game so Storm for a Butterfly plays when you fight Chidori.

It think it’s criminal they rewrote this section from the original but, to the best of my knowledge and from what I remember from the original games. (So I might even be entirely wrong about this) Chidori’s sketch book carried a lot more weight to it during its scene. Because from what I remember, it didn’t just have one picture of Junpei in it……or a few here and there. The entire sketch book was full of pictures of him. And only him.
