You may or may not be aware of the Persona series for the PS2 and PSP, a spin-off of Shin Megami Tensei, which tell the tales of groups of teenagers who posess the rare ability of summoning Personas - the personifications of their psyche and fighting againts mysterious creatures known as Shadows in numerous supernatural settings, such as the Dark Hour in Persona 3 or the TV World in Persona 4.
It's kind of old news, but it's new news to me so I thought I should make a post about it in case other "fans" haven't heard yet. Persona 4 now has its own Animated Series. Moreover, it is also slated for a U.S release in early 2012!
Obviously most of the fans won't be able to wait until then and will probably watch Japanese episodes online... So good news for U.S SMT lovers - it's being simulcasted on Anime Network! In any case, I'm also posting a trailer.
Anyone as excited as I am?

Watched it, and to be honest it's not as good as the Game. Story flow too hurried (probably because this is Anime), and I'm not really like the drawing style in this anime. But for fans it's a good anime, I love the game, but this anime is a bit ugly compared to the game.

Yeah, I expected as much. You can never melt an interactive world into a non-interactive one and expect it to explore all the nooks and crannies, I just hope it's enjoyable before I start watching. ;P

I like it. The best thing for me is it not delving into every little thing in the game. Specifically; drawn out boss battles, dungeon crawling, and level grinding. Hopefully the Social Link stuff will kept to a minimal as well, because I honestly hated a few of them. (Ai and Daisuke, to name names)

Ive been watching it, I like it so far. not as good as Ika musume or Working!!
I wasn't recommending the Anime because it's a good one (that I do not know, I only started watching it today), but because it's related to the series of games, hence the lack of me comparing it with different Anime's.
