Synopsis

In the wake of Ren Amamiya's apparent suicide, the other members of the Phantom Thieves are heartbroken and without purpose. As Sae Niijima rushes over to Cafe Leblanc, she brings the team a shocking revelation that spurs them to pull off one more spectacular heist. The hardened warriors of the metaverse make one last attempt to prove to the world that they fight for justice, and to bring down their teammate turned traitor, Gorou Akechi. Watch them closely, or they might just steal your heart.

I decided to watch this series after seeing a letsplay by Lost Pause for Persona5 and was curious at how well it would do compared to Persona4: the Animation. I have not played any of the Persona games, full disclaimer, so I can not compare whether this was a good adaptation of the game. Overall, this is a decent anime, and this review assumes you'll be watching the actual series prior to the specials.

Mixed Feelings

Well, well, I've never played any personas, so I'll only evaluate them as an anime. Overall it was quite disappointing, I had really enjoyed the first special, but the second/conclusion, left a lot to be desired, simply the final battle is decided with a cry of support, an invocation of a very strong "persona" who decided everything with a blow, besides those classic phrases of effect that have no effect at all, because we agree, are very bland, honestly, it seemed like generic anime that has no idea for a battle or for the construction of a dialogue, another negative point were the characters that ...

Ok guys, I really tried to be positive, I went open minded to see the episode but... Is P5A what are we talking about.
This is my first review and I never feel the need to write one but...
Let's start with the positives: they made it 50 minutes long and Rivers in the Desert. That's it, now with the negatives...

*inhales*

The direction and the pace were as bad as always. The animation wasn't that bad but it's still nothing remarkable and impressing and has the same problems that the original series had. Then we have the clip collection of the group exploring the palace. I hate this ...
