A very good new Persona experience (only played P5R and P4G before).

The start is slow and unappealing tbh and the Tartarus isn't engaging so everything had to rely on the writing.
While I didn't find the Dark-Hour related plot really interesting, I think new Personæ should take lessons from that one regarding character writing.
The characters embody really well the main thematic (finding a meaning to one's life) and I loved how some relationships progressively took a really nice shape. The duos are pretty good ; really liked MC and Aegis's Dynamic and Yukari and Mitsuru's development. Junpei and Chidori formed a really nice pair too ; i'm glad Junpei was a flawed character, with highs and lows, and not just best buddy.

I think this due to early recruitment of the party and I hope they'll come back to this.

Also the music and UI were neat as always (though I didn't like P4G's that much)
