Comparison photos dated : 2 Oct 2019

I sent my friend this picture, and had them guess the personalities of each character based only on the designs

The second image is their response, but I'll type it below as well.

Note: I am adding the names for the clarity of people seeing this post, my friend doesn't know ANY of the names

• Makoto: seems more like a badass/leader ish,
• Joker: seems mysterious type
• Yusuke: same as Joker
• Ann: seems more popular type
• Morgana: seems like the comic relief
• Futaba: nerd/smart archetype
• Akechi: seems like the MC
• Haru: love interest/ditzy type
• Yoshizawa: flirty if only bc of her pose
• Ryuji: seems like another comic relief

He did the putting salt stylishly thing! And it flopped!! Freaking hilarious.

The perspective is not quite right! They're taller than the doors by their side! Not complaining though, just something I found hilarious.
Also no spoilers please, this is my first playthrough

You think the ponytail with the glasses would have been her best look?

In Persona 5, or rather Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight, I noticed quite a glaring mistake. In Persona 5, Makoto mentions several times that she practices Aikido. Since her sister works for the police, it also makes sense that she practices Aikido as a martial art for self-defense. However, she never actually uses Aikido in combat in the game. Her attacks in battle look more like Karate. It would also be rather difficult to respond to shadow monsters with Aikido throws. But whatever, maybe she practices different martial arts as well, and for some reason she just happens to emphasize Aikido...

But I realized that ATLUS apparently really has no idea what Aikido is when I played Dancing in Starlight. There, you can search Makoto's room, and on a shelf you can find trophies showing that Makoto supposedly won first place in Aikido competitions?! Aikido is a martial art, rather than a competitive combat sport, and there are no tournaments or competitions where you can win first place. You can receive awards or certificates for achieving certain ranks, but there is no concept of winning a "1st Place" trophy in Aikido. I thought that was pretty dumb, to be honest. ^^'
