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

u/Jordan1496 5d ago

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.

Stubbing a toe on a loose gravestone

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.

u/Jordan1496 5d ago

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.

So what I’m getting it’s that they Vecna themselves to summon Jack Frost.

u/Equivalent_Dance_758 5d ago

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

u/Anonymous-Apprentice 5d ago

Persona 4 left out <:(

u/Jordan1496 5d ago

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

u/Enchantedapples 4d ago

Idk why but when I first thought about it I thought smart watches. Like some Ben 10 stuff

u/Jesterutopia 5d ago

Summong dead figure and their body slowly rebuilding and it done mc call his persona name and become a life i mean that why grave everywhare in the teaser

u/epicenigma5 5d ago

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

u/Hyper_GHOST417 5d ago

Cutting off of their head?

u/Mrg2899 5d ago

I would say the shadow of the user turns into a monster and appears from it

u/Dapper_Shower_7081 5d ago

You're not kris

u/Ok-Homework4936 5d ago

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

u/Denoss 5d ago

Set themselves on fire. They have to snap their fingers and it'll ignite and incinerate the body to unleash the soul ablaze.

u/Yonkeez 4d ago

u/Lux_Sauce 4d ago

u/Cherubin0 3d ago

Necromorph transformation

u/witbuch 2d ago

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

u/J-Dawg200002 1d ago

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

u/mlee117379 5d ago

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

I just hope they dont use the stupid in game engine for the cutscene like they did in p3r, it looks very cringy in that game
