I love the little detail of Yusuke showing his phone to MC upside down at first. It fits his oblivious self really well

This OP is what Joker sees while tripping balls after taking all of Takemi's meds in one sitting

[Delfinoluma]

Only after forever, we get the real opening.

[Olivia-oxjw]

I can’t believe they actually acknowledged Haru as a character

[wikibanned]

now if only the entire show was animated in this style

[InXrtia]

Takemi: are you seeing any side effects

Akira/Ren:

[Anthony]

I feel like this OP has the feels when you play through the game once and can't max all social links.

[tamamonobae]

...Oh, hello budget, nice to meet you :D

Official lyrics:


They say a choice in the darkest hour
Is the way we find out what we are made of
But if I chose as a blind man would
Only hearing voices inside my head

Can I say (who is righteous, devout)
Every fall (I can find out about) me

Dark sun...
You shone like a prayer
Waiting to strike

Dark sun...
But somehow you fed
My hunger for your love, another fiery night

Dark sun...
Wherever you shine
Eyes turn away

Dark sun...
What choices have I?
Believe in another day, live another day
Live one more day...

0:07
That hand behind joker...
It got all of us

[marcojara]

Dude, maybe its just me, but this OP makes persona 5 looks like a super deep psychologycal shit

[legodawg]

I really love this matte art style. Wish they went with this instead of the kinda jarring art style we got

[panzer]

I like how they gave more depth into Joker and Akechi's relationship

[lewiss]

Like the animation or not, you gotta admit the music is amazing.

[nolimitomo]

1:01 FUTABA WAS HOOPING I REPEAT. As a basketball player she has taken the lead for best girl

[bristian]

*Damn. Benjamin Franklin invented electricity and this track. What a mad lad.*

[SeeASquaRE]

Of course it is Masashi Ishihama directing the Opening. Dang this guy is master of psychedelic openings.

[realkingofantarctica]

P5A: "We're going to suck so hard and then randomly make one of the best openings of 2018."

[IAmMightyMike]

I never knew Benjamin Franklin wrote such amazing lyrics while discovering electricity

[androidwillpwn]

If only the rest of the show had as much effort as the second OP
