About Persona: Trinity Soul

Meet Persona: Trinity Soul, an action, sci-fi and super power anime by A-1 Pictures (2008). Here is the premise in a nutshell. What the story covers: The stage is Ayanagi City, a metropolis near the Japan Sea. It is a futuristic metropolis that was built to carry out the recovery from the calamity caused by the "Apathy Syndrome" ten years previous.

Also worth knowing: High school learner Shin Kanzato with his little brother Jun, meet with their elder brother Ryou, who is the chief of the Ayanagi City Police, again after ten years. At that time, a series of peculiar incidents happen in Ayanagi Metropolis such as the crew of a submarine that suddenly disappears while in their submarine, or a spiritless symptom which disturbs the world after ten years. Ryou tracks down the organization behind the string of incidents, and having become involved in the incidents, Shin awakens the "Persona."

With action at the core, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. It will appeal most to viewers who like fast, high-impact fights.

Production & Appeal

Production sits with A-1 Pictures, which means the visual identity of Persona: Trinity Soul follows that studio's craft. The action focus matters here: fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. With a 6.6/10 score, it is more of a niche pick than a universal crowd-pleaser. Released in 2008, it competed with that season's other new series for attention.
