    🤍Any other Persona fans? 🖤 I wanna do more video game/anime pilgrimages! Where should I go?? (PS this video was filmed in 2022 oops, but at least it's good timing to release it before Persona Tactica!!)

    How about legit Kanto region spots from Pokemon? I know it wont be 100% accurate but there has got to be areas that its somewhat based on. I know there is a legit Kanto in Japan.

    Absolutely. Persona is one of my favorite game series. 1 and 2, have unfortunately not aged as well as the rest and they don't have all of the game mechanics that was introduced with Persona 3 and going forward. If you haven't played 3 and 4, then I can definitely recommend them! A remake of P3 will be released on February 2, next year and bring it's graphics inline with P5. P4 had a smaller graphicall upgrade, back in 2020 for Windows and was released for consoles in January of this year. :)

    Persona is easily my favorite game series. One of the reasons I started watching youtubers from Japan was to see more of the real Japan that I had previously only seen from games, manga & anime and the Persona games was probably the most important in creating my interest in Japan.

    Persona 5 is the reason I haven't gotten lost in Shinjuku Station while I'm visiting Tokyo! Even went on a date in Inokashira Park yesterday. Such a cool video! Gonna check out more spots from your video.

    That’s so helpful, Shinjuku station is a nightmare! I actually did my first full play through of the game before moving to Tokyo, so I didn’t have as good of a concept of the locations. Now that I’m replaying it after living here, can enjoy the game from a whole new perspective!

    OMG I literally did this like three days ago. If you go all the way down the Leblanc alley, you end up at a bus stop, which is where Ryuji gets told off by Shido’s entourage. Also the grocery store is not on the Main Street that it is in the game. I think the neighbourhood didn’t seem as similar as the game (it’s been many years), but the metro station is almost identical. I put my camera away thinking I was done and had to whip it out when I got on the platform.

    I have played Persona 5 Strikers and I remember sanganjaya = yongenyaya as Cafe Leblanc (Hideout attic). It was nice to recognize same kind of real buildings and structures as in the game. And have a kind of Deja vu feeling suddenly. Also nice way to attach character comments with real landscapes.

    I didn’t know Persona had a lot of real life locations! I knew Makoto Shinkai films and Yakuza games had some real life locations, so I should’ve guessed it would. A big surprise for me was finding out the Route 2 road from my Pokémon game on the OG Gameboy, shared the same name as the real Route 2 in Japan.

    4 minutes from Sangen-Jaya to Shibuya, plus however many minutes from Shibuya to Aoyama Itchome. Maybe the reason you get to read on the train so seldom is that it can only happen when you get good seats on both trains.
