In an earlier news post, it was announced that "Persona 3 the Movie" was to be a serial film.

An announcement has now been made that the second movie in the series will be released sometime in Summer 2014. The announcement was made at the end of the "Persona 3 the Movie" premiere which aired November 23, 2013.

The second movie is a continuation of the first as it has been addressed as the "second chapter."

Synopsis for "Persona 3 the Movie" (first movie):
"Terrible creatures lurk in the dark, preying on those who wander into the hidden hour that lies between one day and the next—the Dark Hour. A secret school club known as SEES defends humanity from horrors and disasters while working to solve the mystery of the Dark Hour once and for all."

That's why the Person3 movie that is now showing in theaters in Japan called "PERSONA3 THE MOVIE -#1 Spring of Birth-" with "#1" in the title....
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

Aigis is one of my favorite in P3. I'm always have her in my party.
Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together.

Seeing this news makes me really hyped up since I am a big fan of Persona especially Persona 3 & 4!

I can't wait for Aegis as well! She is one of my fave characters in Persona 3 series! (I like her maid outfit lol XD)

I wonder how the Strega members will look like in the sequel (especially Chidori \^o^/)

Not bad at all. Considering the length of P3 (especially the final chapter which drags, in a good way) they'd need 5 hours to cover the most important material + a bit school life, at the very least.

Oh thanks, that was way too crazy for me to get the dates down. All that Teddie trolling made me go through a roller coaster ride of emotions. I can't freaking believe they pretended like it was over before they announced P5. Damn I was so tired an hour ago and now I'm too excited to sleep.

Ahh, so excited! ;; Can't wait to see Aegis and of course, more of Akihiko and the MC.

(and also excited for P5 of course, though not as excited about all the extra P4 stuff. Wondering if I should get P4U and P4U2 or not, same as PQ. Will probably end up buying it anyway, all my moneys for Atlus once again it seems, heh..)

Persona 4 and Persona 3 have different characters. Persona 3 anime series have different characters too. So for the movies just watch them in order and you can watch Persona 4 Animation when you want.

P3 happened before P4, but it doesn't really matter which order you watch, since they are entirely different to each other.

Even though P3 and P4 is set in the same universe, they are not related, like, at all, because P3 actually USES the setting, while P4 is random mainstream contrived murder mystery that just happens to happen in same universe.

so there'll be two movies? that's pretty good! that means that the plot can be drawn out more and be more developed and interesting.
i would much prefer that over one rushed movie so i'm glad that there'll be two :))

It'll be 3 or 4 movies, since first one name "Spring" of birth and cover story in Spring, and second one is Early "Summer".

If they follow this pattern, we'll get 4 movies base on seasons.

For me, I think that P3 and P4 gave a bigger impact than P1 and P2 with a good setting and story.

Different tone. I would LOVE to see P2 adaptation, because its arguably the darkest game of entire persona franchise and it has brilliant plot and soundtrack(with a cyberpunk vibe to it no less), but sadly its not as popular.

While we are at things that will never happen adaptation of SMT:Soul Hackers or even SMT Nocturne would be great too.

However we will faster get freaking shitty raidou kuzunoha movie than those things.

P1/P2 are officially dead for Atlus. They make a fucking Persona crossover, but guess what? No P1/P2. Just forget about it.

Still, P2's plot is decent enough for a TV series (still don't like BOTH endings, but whatever)

I still hope they are smart enough to realize to milk that cow and release SOME sort of adaptation of P2.

There's no point in milking P2 if they don't actually plan on using it afterwards. They milked P4 because they were developing P4U, P4G and so on. The same applies to P3, since P3 characters appear in P4U and now in PQ. But where's P2? We have two "enhanced" ports for PSP and mind you, EP wasn't really successful.

Anyway, I'm not saying they WON'T make any sort of adaptation of P2, but I'm definitely not counting on it. Still, all I wanted was to watch Eikichi, Maya and Tatsuya (EP version) in glorious animation, so I'm not THAT frustrated about it.
