http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2014/05/02/persona-4-golden-anime-to-air-in-japan-this-july

Interesting and it begins in July~

Cast members announced too:

It reunites game casts. Looks like it retells Season 1 with Marie voiced by Kana Hanazawa.

It will be a full reboot of the anime. I hope they make Yu a man and let pursue a lovers route. Seems like it is going to be Marie.

Oh God Rei as Rise is going to be annoying as fuck.

I never replayed and got that far into the undub. So I've only heard Laura Bailey as Rise.

Call me a newfag or whatever, but with her personality, my god.

Hanakana does the voice in the game.

It's not like they got her for the anime just to pander to her fans. Shes been in the game for a while now.

I am aware that she is in the game, considering I own P4G as well. I played the PS2 ver. of P4 and I like it. When P4G came out it was nice as a port + additional gameplay/plot but I just don't quite get why an entire remake + additional plot and why this early? (So Hanakana is the one to blame imo.)

Same director as Angel Beats, P4A, Devil Survivor 2, Danganronpa, etc...
It's gonna suck, A1P'd make it more watchable though.
Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances.
He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter.
Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.
Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel.
The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck.

According to this 1-hour streaming event video (http://www.nosub.tv/watch/107659.html), the story for the anime starts from when Narugami comes back again like PV shows up.

The original was quite average and since it's A-1, it won't be worth watching.

Well this is pretty pointless. Marie is the worst character in the game so she is hardly a thrilling addition to the anime, and most of it is just going to retread the original anime, probably to save time and effort. There's not really much extra in the Golden edition of the game thats worth animating.


That is just wrong, her story when I played was beautiful and emotional, I think you need to keep your negativity to yourself and don't bag on a character who I doubt you really understand.

So wait, is this like a sequel? Because Marie's SL happened during and before the True Ending.

Quick question! Should I skip watching the first P4 animation if I plan to watch this, or should I watch both? I'm pretty confused.

From what has been said about P4GA then no you don't have to watch the first anime to see this one. As this is going to be a re-make with Golden scenes added in.

As much as I loved the Persona 4 anime and all, I really don't see the reason of the remake. Yeah, cool! ANOTHER Persona 4 anime! But, really!? I played P4G and beat it. (Almost done with getting the platinum) It's just... I don't know. We can't assume too much. Maybe, it'll be better than the Original Persona 4 Anime.

Well I never saw the original Persona 4 anime but I loved the game (never beat it unfortunately got maybe half way) so I'll probably give this a shot since its got some new bits in the story.

Atlus USA will never do that. You can't teach an old dog new tricks.

I imported the jap version and struggle like hell with the kanji. HanaKana is worth it. Presume I'm spoiling myself by watching the anime though (haven't even gotten to Marie's social link yet).
I like that they're taking the focus off the murder investigations for the time being with this anime though.
