About Persona 4 the Animation

Persona 4 the Animation (ペルソナ4アニメーション) blends action, adventure and mystery by AIC A.S.T.A. (2011). Below is a fresh retelling of what the story is about. What the story covers: Persona 4 takes place in a rural town named Inaba. There have been unexplained murders occurring whenever there was fog after heavy rain.

Along the way, there were also rumors about a channel on television airing only at midnight called Mayonaka TV, during which it is said that one can see his/her "other half" when staring at the TV screen. After hearing about a recent unsolved murder which occurred during the fog, the characters—Narukami, Chie, and Yosuke—discuss how each of them had attempted to watch the mysterious TV channel and witnessed the murder victim. The protagonist later realizes that during midnight when the channel is on, his body can phase into his television set as a gateway to enter another world infested with shadows.

As an action title, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Voice work is led by Isamu Tanonaka as Igor and Ai Maeda as Chihiro Fushimi. This one is best suited to viewers who like fast, high-impact fights. With 25 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.
