Been thinking a lot about Persona 5 lately, since listening to the soundtrack in full, nerding out with my partner over games in general, and him playing the demo of Metaphor: ReFantazia, which is made by the a lot of the same team that made P5. The vibe is really different, but contains a lot of the same DNA, in a great way.
I'm struck though, by how shocking and different seeing a new style is, but also, it's a familiar feeling - P5 was also shockingly new at the time, in its stark black, red, and white, with its jazzy soundtrack, and overall vibe of sleekness and COOL.
Its intro just oozes all of it, and it's one of those that I don't mind at all letting loop in the background, while the game sits idle on the titles screen. I've probably watched and heard it hundreds of times at this point, which is weird to think about.
Also, it's funny to see in retrospect, that this is very much the "S01" intro, if this were an anime, with its focus on the first few main characters and conflicts. Which works for a game, but I kinda want to see what the other OPs would look like, if that makes sense?
Anyways, here's a rad song/animation combo. :)
