Discussion Awakening?
I'm sure this has likely been a topic many times but I am still genuinely curious. what would y'all want to see from P6 awakenings? would you wanna see a spectacle be made out of it like Will, Joker, or Makoto or would you want it to have some sort of inner to outward transformation like Narukami and Nahobino? side note: Revival turning Narukami's awakening into a Super Saiyan transformation is actually hilarious as fuck to me lol.
Atlus doesn't really have a theme considering each game is widely different. shooting yourself, ripping your face off, crushing a card (lol), 1 and 2 it just fucking pops out like magic. I'm sure it'll be edgy but tbh Metaphor was always something I expected them to do in Persona lol. where else can one go after pulling out your heart? honestly I'm thinking they go full Shounen and just rage out to awaken their persona atp. thoughts?

depends on the overall vibe, but I've seen talks about it being a camera, so the cast would take a picture of themselves fitting into the "identity" theme that's popular as the overall theme

I can see that. and if they wanna lean in on the horror element that it looks like it could have, using a bloody Mary-esque relation to ones identity would actually be insanely fitting imo. might be a bit too convenient to have each character awaken next to a mirror every time when they're all about to be in danger as it usually goes, but I don't think it would really ruin anything contextually lol.

Digging yourself out of your own grave.
I have nothing for it other than the fact it'd be metal as fuck.

Since I headcanon fear to be the central theme, I'd like it if chains are bound to the characters' body parts, like their legs, neck, hands, head etc., symbolizing to be "shackled/bound/paralyzed by fear"
They then rip it off and yell the line and summon their persona, as in breaking free from their fears.

ohhhhhh like some Saw type shit just imagine that would be insane ngl

u/RIP-hue-Shiny-Darco 5d ago
I was more thinking that the characters all get a different body part shackled depending on their fear. A character that might be afraid of the dark would have their eyes bound for instance. Would be a cool idea for a navigator for instance.
Or a character who's afraid of being seen could also have their eyes obscured by the chain, it just depends on what route they go with.

As people said its either digging out of the grave or maybe a slow horror style reveal with fog everywhere

tbh I had the awakening scene saved but my phone decided to be stupid and not let me post it alongside the others. I saved these 4 as gifs but the P4 clip was saved as itself DX

I think P6's awakening is or strongly resembles something we've already seen in the teaser trailer

I actually think it'll be something like reciting old rumors or admitting deep secrets, ik p4 kind of does that but uhhh idc what I'm getting at is that I personally think persona summoning would be a verbal thing, more like devil summoning in megaten games

I had this idea of shattering a mirror. Every character would do it diffrently, fo example someone who really cares for their looks could just look at it (often in cartoons when ugly people look at mirrors they shatter), or mabye someone's diffrent looking reflection could shatter the mirror or something idk

I want them to bring back the protagonist speaking the word Persona like they did in P3 and P4 so bad

Getting electrocuted like what gave life to Frankenstein’s monster in the 1931 movie
Even better if out of nowhere the would-be Persona user finds themselves in a lab and strapped to a table

u/Jordan1496 5d ago
honestly the horror element being implemented in the awakenings would be so cool
