Synopsis

In the wake of Ren Amamiya's apparent suicide, the other members of the Phantom Thieves are heartbroken and without purpose. As Sae Niijima rushes over to Cafe Leblanc, she brings the team a shocking revelation that spurs them to pull off one more spectacular heist. The hardened warriors of the metaverse make one last attempt to prove to the world that they fight for justice, and to bring down their teammate turned traitor, Gorou Akechi. Watch them closely, or they might just steal your heart.

For me the game is a masterpiece.
This one was just "good". The pacing was rushed which I was expecting and the animations were not consistent during the episode. Some segments felt like they had very good quality and some felt like average.
Glad they are sticking with the same scenarios as the game too and that they kept the finale for another special ep coming in march.
I recommend it for all persona 5 fans that already played the game, yea it won't be as iconic as the game but you will relive the memories that the game left in you.

OH AND THEY HAD A CLOSE UP ...

LA will say this but the animation by CloverWorks did get.."slightly" better and LA says "slightly" loosely but still and though the plot does almost a half the runtime to be exposition in how the Phantom Thieves as well as the mastermind and his dragon to exposition everything ...

Ok guys, I really tried to be positive, I went open minded to see the episode but... Is P5A what are we talking about.
This is my first review and I never feel the need to write one but...
Let's start with the positives: they made it 50 minutes long and Rivers in the Desert. That's it, now with the negatives...

*inhales*

The direction and the pace were as bad as always. The animation wasn't that bad but it's still nothing remarkable and impressing and has the same problems that the original series had. Then we have the clip collection of the group exploring the palace. I hate this ...
