Last time on Persona 4, I finished Rise's dungeon. This time... I honestly have no idea. I'll probably do some social links and side quests, though.

But first my PS3 needs to update.

I'm up to rank 5 for the Fox's social link - I'm hoping that, before long, I'll get enough of a discount that I'll be able to complete a dungeon in one day instead of two or three.

I need to boost my expression in order to continue with Nanako's and Dojima's social links, so I'll look into how to do that.

I'm glad that I have a guide for the social links - I realize that saying the wrong thing probably just makes it take longer to complete the social link, but every little bit helps.

That's unexpected - Rise was saved, but a dead body still showed up without anyone appearing on the Midnight Channel.

And King Moron was the victim - hardly a shame to see him go.

Apparently, Teddie can train enough to somehow grow a body.

A body that's constantly sparkling.

And I've been properly introduced to Naoto now.

I'm curious. between 4 so far and 5, which do you like more?

I can fuse four or more Personas at once, though given how high their level is bound to be, I likely won't be able to use it.

Also, Igor's claiming that the journey is reaching its climax, but that's got to be a red herring for so many different reasons.

I feel like the new homeroom teacher is going to be creepily flirtatious towards the main protagonist based on the dialogue portrait alone.

really to any student

The dreaded exams are getting closer, and I think I'll take a break.

So far, I like 5 more - I'm playing the base Persona 4, so some quality of life improvements are absent. For P4, improving social links with your party members seems easier so far (I was locked out of some in P5, like Makoto and Haru, because certain stats weren't high enough), but the side characters aren't as interesting.

Too early to comment on the story, though.
