so much new info, updating the OP now. >Kanji has a Genesic Emerald Tager Buster Looks like I have to wait for them to reveal the remaining characters, console and console DLC characters. Otherwise I'm maining Teddy.

I leave the Carl section for a week and we have like 3893893 new Carls

"I can picture all the trolls teaming up with people and activating Pandora to kill off their partner so they cant play lol" Capcom what have you done.

Would be cool to have one, I need a place to discuss this game other than Dustloop.

I have never wanted to main a milf as much as I do now.

Not quite sure how I feel about the game so far. The "One More" cancel seems pretty hype so far, but I kind of don't like how they are hyping Aigis as "The P3 Character". If another P3 doesn't get in I'll just main Kanji (WHICH I HOPE TO GOD ISN'T A GRAPPLER, I REFUSE TO MAIN GRAPPLERS).

Megane is the Romaji for glasses, so that is a glasses "on and off" feature.

Yep, Pretty sure that confirms Teddy, and since this is game is based on P4 with a little bit a P3 I guess we can assume Naoto will be playable too. That leaves 2 characters for P3 for the Arcade release, maybe more slots will be opened for the console release down the line?

It wasn't stated, but its heavily implied the way its worded.

"We're making part of a sequel to Persona 4. Story mode will also depict the background of how Aigis comes to Inaba and enters the P-1 Grand Prix." Aigis confirmed for only P3 fighter?

Keep in mind that those screens are from the Arcade Release, and this is Arcsys we're dealing with. Chances are that we are going to get 3+ characters for the 360/ps3 release a few months down the line.

I'm 99% sure that the "club" background is just a super background, you only see it in the screenshots during supers, and its fading away during a few of them.

If Chie is anything but rushdown I will Lol.

OP updated, The Emperor card in the first pic is clearly Kanji, the first the Fool card is Aigis as confirmed from the source article. I can make out the Priestess next to the Fool, so its either Fuuka or Yukiko.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_Arcana Yep, it is :3.

The characters have the names of one of the 12 Major Arcana under their character select cards, So I'm guessing theres only going to be 12 playable characters? Also yay, this increases Ken's chances since Nanako is the only other who represents the Justice Arcana, and she doesn't fight ... Meh, I guess you could count Chihiro Fushimi too, but no one cares about her.

MY BODY CANNOT HANDLE ALL OF THIS.

I dont see it either actually, but it was quoted on a creditable site. But I'm going to take it with a grain of salt anyway.

I keep forgetting Rosa was announced, Is there any gameplay of her yet? I want to main George and Rosa so much ;___;.

Main playable characters from both iterations would put the character count to 17. Heres to all of them (Ken) making it in .

Oh man, this is going to be the first fighting game where I cannot decide who to main. Unless Ken Amada gets in which I think is kinda unlikely .

Holy shit what did they do to Kinako. 623C is now useless. Its harder to J.C cross up oki with 236C Can't combo into her big bang attack. The only good thing she gained is being able to combo with 623B. Seriously, what the shit Aja. Holy shit, even her damage potential was nerfed. ugh.

um wat

Man, Fuck Kojiro, wheres my Todoroki or Amon. Not entirely, Its more of a "If you get hit, awesome, otherwise thanks for the free 1 spirit gauge" type of move. Unless theres some kind of tatic we can use it with, Its pretty useless along with 623A (Needs more blockstun to be useful) and her flying command, which I don't see being useful at all.
