some scribs based on things i saw at kawaiikon 2023 last week, i had a lot of fun! (in which i use minato + my squidkid as stand-ins for myself)
bonus comic + some thoughts about the con under the cut!
gotta love when u think it’d be cool to cosplay but then completely forget to get anything for the cosplay (i forgot to go to look for yellow fabric for a ryoji scarf)!! so u just go as just some guy (my wardrobe has a few items that remind me of my faves).
ANYWAYS for the con itself, i had a lot of fun! something about it was very humanizing, just knowing that there were other people in hawaii who also like persona (and the other things that i am into). i got to pull out my beloved minato nui/plushie and share him with other people which was. fun!!
the cosplayers were super cool too! the femc cosplayer was super sweet and they had!! a p3 protag itabag and it was so ?? heartwarming and cool for me to see that?? and the akechi + kokichi cosplayers being in the same proximity was also very cool to me (idk i feel like they’re just both interesting characters).
and of course the artists were very lovely... i was very surprised 2 see so much persona 3 (thank you p3p for being put on modern consoles) there, haha. i paid the minato tax™ aka that’s what happens when your favorite character is like. the protag. i have so much beautiful minato art in my home now. i am so happy and normal about this. my heart is sold to him. he has such incomprehensible boy swag that transcends the universe. but anyway.
this is very rambly but um idk im just! grateful and appreciative! that other people are out there that enjoy media that i like especially since they were so scarce and far between (other fandoms showed up more frequently). would i go again? dunno, depends on what im into by the time next year rolls around. but i’m glad that i went this year, for sure 💙

Y'know, despite being a HUGE Persona fan, I'm actually kinda just... Completely uninterested in Persona 3 Reload
Persona 3 is a good game, no doubt, and for that reason I AM happy it's getting a modern remake because it's mechanics are rough by today's standards, so it's unambiguously a good thing for them to get a refresh so other people can enjoy the game. Still, personally, I am deeply disappointed with it ever since it was announced, because like? Despite being the fourth iteration of the same game, it's not even attempting to be an ultimate version, just a new modern one, and I feel like that's just the completely wrong way to go about it.
Look, I'm not gonna lie- I am VERY biased towards FeMC/Minako, playing as her is second only to playing as Yu (because P4 is the superior game) and I've had a blast cosplaying and getting recognized as her, like. She's very near and dear to my heart, and as far as I'm concerned, even if she's less or not at all canon, her experience as the protagonist feels much more right to me than Minato/Makoto/Emoboi. Like, not taking any criticism- her SLs were better, her songs were better, she's voiced by Laura Bailey... Playing as her is just the superior experience.
So when Reload just... Once again acts as if she doesn't exist? Yeah, ngl, I have close to 0 motivation to pick up and play the same game AGAIN, even if it's been polished, because, ultimately... It can no longer appeal to me in its original form when I KNOW that playing as Minako is better in every way. Like. Part of it IS me being a girl who wants to play as a girl and date my beloved boys again (the female party member LI are the weakest in this game imo, but then again, there's no beating Rise) and also... PARTICULARLY Shinji, who is my best boy and who can ONLY be saved as Minako. WHY would I want to play as Minato and watch him die again without even getting to smooch him once???
Like. Yeah haha funny, Atlus is making yet another Persona remake, but fr. I feel personally attacked by the exclusion of FeMC and just,,, do not wish to spend my money again on a game I already played the best version of (btw choosing to port P3P over P3fes to PC was a pro gamer move, even if the port was a mess, but fr I still want my hi-res Minako)
