However, my expectations played a part in the viewing experience. With its cheap animation, off-pacing at times, and generally its lack of what made the game special. Even with that, the anime was considered a disappointment from the start. It won 2017 Game Awards “RPG of the Year” And was ranked at was of the top games of the year by many gaming outlets. Persona 5, another addition to the long time SMT/Persona series was a huge success in both the west and in Japan. Unfortunately for game anime adaptations, they have a steep hill to climb to recapture the magic you get from playing through them. Just how will she react to his story, and what will become of the Phantom Thieves? Here, he wakes up to a harsh interrogation, but this is cut short by the arrival of Sae Niijima-a prosecutor seeking answers. However, during the peak of their popularity, Ren gets captured and taken into custody. The group's reputation continues to grow explosively, bringing along fame both positive and negative. With the help of similarly troubled students, he forms the Phantom Thieves of Hearts, attempting to save people from their sinful desires by 'taking their heart,' making evildoers regret their actions and turn over a new leaf. In the Metaverse, he awakens his Persona, a power from deep within that gives him the strength to fight the shadows. While on the way to attend his first day at his new school, Ren notices a strange app has appeared on his phone, transferring him to a world known as the Metaverse, which contains people's 'shadows': distorted depictions of their true selves.

Ren Amamiya, a new transfer student at Shujin Academy, is sent to Tokyo to live with his family friend Sojiro Sakura after wrongly being put on probation for defending a woman from sexual assault.
