Hey guys it’s Tiller!

This past week I rewatched Persona 5 the Animation. Something I’ve wanted to do for a while but really never found the time to.

This has been a repeat of the rather grueling experience I had with this back when it was releasing. Unfortunately and unsurprisingly, nothing has changed. I’m not impressed with the anime, and feel pretty underwhelmed with what I saw.

Persona 5 the Animation is another entry in a long list of poor anime
adaptations of video games. It’s sad, but also just a problem that persists. Video games do not use the same story telling as shows, often times, there’s a lot more that’s left unsaid and the creative team is left with a lot of new decisions to make in order to be able to tell the same story in less time and create new set pieces that can function in an anime.

Granted, Persona 5 is especially difficult since this anime is only 1 season, while P5’s main story is about 100 hours long.

Anyways these are my thoughts on Persona 5 the Animation, so please enjoy!

And if you have your own thoughts about it, please leave a comment below!
