Hypothetically speaking, if it were possible who would win between the Knights of the Round and the Einburg members?

To prefice for, i will be presenting two versions of this scenario, the first is when Suzaku is part of the rounds and the 2nd is when he no longer is, rather the knight of Zero (im aware for this confrontation to happen, alot of retconning and the story would have to altered hence its hypothetical)

How i would structure it is having each round or small group face each member individually or in groups of 2, heres how i would allocate it:

For scenario one:

Bismarck and Suzaku Vs Norland (Galahad and Lancelot conquista with the float system vs Foulbout) since this scenario would have Suzaku still as the Knight of 7 he would not yet have the Albion

[I think in this version it would be very one-sided]

[For scenario two where suzaku is not a core round]

Bismarck vs Norland (Galahad vs Foulbout)

Anya vs Arnold (post modification, so we could get some unique geass interactions, Mordred vs Lohengrin)

Luciano vs Christoph (Percival vs Elgrips, battle of the mad)

Monica vs Narah (Florence vs Queen Asura)

Dorothea vs Divock (Palomeides vs Elcarmal)

Nonette vs Heath (Lancelot Club vs Fleipnir)

And finally Gino vs Catherine (Tristan Divider vs Queen Curaca)

Let me know if you would swap any of the battles and who to (in my opinion this would be an overwhelming sweep for the Knights of the Round) But what do you all think?

[For anyone whose read Oz of the reflection, you might have greater insight for Monica, Nonette and Dorothea specifically]

Taking a guess at P6's main party composition (who they could be and their arcana respectively)

First to make this sort of idea grounded, i will first cover the precedent of Arcana usage for each of the main parties of P3R, P5R and P4G:

Fool: Makoto, Yu, Joker

Magician Arcana: Junpei Iori,Yosuke Hanamura, Morgana

Lovers Arcana: Yukari Takeba, Rize Kujikawa, Ann Takamaki

Chariot Arcana: Ryuji, Chie

Emperor: Akihiko, Kanji, Yusuke

Empress: Mitsuru, Haru

Priestess: Fuuka, Yukiko, Makoto

Strength: Koromaru

Justice: Ken, Akechi (if u count akechi as a pt)

Hermit: Futaba

Faith: Sumire

Star: Teddy

Fortune: Naoto

Aeon: Aigis

(Correct me if i got any of these Arcana wrong)

Fool, Magician Lovers Emperor and Priestess or 5 total are tied for having the most Arcana represented at 3 each

Whilst Chariot, Empress, and Justice are 2nd with 2 in each

Every other arcana listed has one each (With Faith and Aeon being unique across these 3 games)

Of these the least likeliest to change is the MC, taking into consideration the wild card but i personally think while the Fool is an integral part to the wild card, i dont think it should be entirely dependent on it (P1 and P2 had protagonists with completely seperate Arcana)

As to not make this top segment too long, i split my thoughts into two parts with the p2 to it down below as a comment

A hypothetical proposal thats been on my mind for awhile

This hypothetical scenario covers two main ideas in total:

What if Lelouch revealed his identity to the Black Knights prior to or after the Black Rebellion (End of R1 or start of R2)

And 2nd what if Lelouch never ventured to Kamine Island during the finale and stayed within Britannia to see through the end of the Black Rebellion

To cover my own thoughts regarding the former, Lelouch revealing his identity before the Black Rebellion (which i might refer to as BR from here on) Would be a major upheaval and more than likely sow doubts/misgivings about Zero's worth but could simultaneously also steel the Black Knight's resolve going into the BR, skepticism aside

Whereas if Lelouch revealed this fact after the BR and when the Black Knights were fully reunited and questioned him on his actions during it, i think it would be met with sharper criticism and contention especially if Lelouch also was honest regarding his reasons for being Zero and confiding fully within the Black Knights (And cause larger internal issues or confusion surrounding the SAZ massacre and other incidents) but in both scenarios i cant imagine the Black Knights believing Schneizel's plot later on in R2 as they would already know his identity but his geass may still be an ice breaker assuming Lelouch kept that as a secret

As for my 2nd idea, the premise is that Lelouch instead of irratically/frantically rushing to Kamine Island out of concern for his sister he would instead take a moment to calmly assess the situation coming to the conclusion that the timing of Nunally's disappearance couldn't be accidental and potentially a trap for him

Therefore in this alteration of events, Lelouch would stay for the remainder of the BR and decide to strategise a plan on rescuing Nunally later and since his identity and secrets would be revealed within this case he would take more or all of the Black Knights to Kamine Island at a later date (assuming Lelouch hasnt exposed his identity, he would formulate a more cohesive plan to try to avoid being pincered by Suzaku and Charles)

But what do you all think?

Hypothetical concept for a "Jack the Ripper" Persona

With this concept in mind it could function as the MC's persona or as a standalone persona which could be accessed through the compendium

Attribute/Element: Physical -(Slash in particular)

I have a few ideas for abilities and or traits so i'll list them here:

Tea Time- Recover 5-15% hp for every 3 instances of bleed applied to the enemy (this could be a turn based ability but this makes it not be too unintuitive)

Fair day my lady?- Increases evasion and speed by 10% (and an additional 5% if raining or hazy weather conditions) when 50% hp or lower

Crimson Deluge- For every 3 stacks of bloodlust, attack/strength gets an additional 5% increase, (maximum of 15%) and critical hit rate by 10%, but dmg taken increases by 15%

[Let it be noted these are seperate ideas, meaning i wouldnt intend to have the Persona have all of these traits but only 1]

Specific moves:

Vermillion Frenzy- slash multi hit target move , dealing medium dmg that applies 1 stack of bleed to each enemy,except immune -maximum of 6 instances per enemy- (Bleed deals 8% of the user's hp as dmg per turn and reduces speed by 5% each turn) -maximum reduction for speed= 15%- lasts for 3 turns

Scalpel Bisection- slash single target move, dealing heavy/severe dmg if executed apply 1 instance of Bloodlust to self (increase crit hit dmg by 5%) -maximum of 3-

Potential move pool:

Vorpal Blade

Tempest slash

Bloody charge

Revolution

Masakunda

Rising slash

Matarukaja

Should Persona 6 change the format of Persona's timescale (as of the modern games)

Since the wording of the title might be a bit unclear, what i mean by this is from P3 onwards, the games have begun in the month of April for it and P4 and P5 which came after it

My proposal going into Persona 6, is that they could potentially have it so that the game takes place over the full span of a year (January-December) of that year or 12 months fully rather than April-December which is around 9 months

This would allow for players to have an additional 3 months worth of time dedicated towards progression of dungeons/social links in addition to other aspects

I do admit this might be a grandiose idea, seeing as it would mean Atlus would have to write in an additional 3 months from January to March but i also believe it could beneficial as it would give the team more time to flesh out or develop the story

But i'd like to know what you all think about this

Taking a large gander at a hypothetical key event in P6

Given the teaser's fairly frequent use of the phrase "Who are you" i believe its possible the main character of P6 may undergo a memory/amnesia plotline throughout the course of the story and it gave me an idea:

What if the protagonist has to face a vestige/shadow of themselves as the final step of re-acquiring/reclaiming their forgotten memories?

From a storyline perspective i believe if this does happen i would rather it occur somewhat close to the beginning but overall leaning more towards the middle of the game as it would allow us as players to piece together ideas surrounding the MC's past and current self rather than haphazardly giving us the entire story without allowing time to acclimate to the character first

I'd like to get your opinions on this Hypothesis, whether you agree or disagree

New Personas we could potentially see added to the compendium For P6

Given the atmosphere generated through the current P6 teaser, it heavily leans into occult/supernatural themes so to me some of the natural picks for new personas would be:

Jekyll/Hyde

Vlad Tepes (Dracula in other words)

Frankenstein

Since i would particularly enjoy a gothic/classic victorian focus as the primary mythology/folklore another one that is generally related is Jack the Ripper

Along the lines of British or english folklore they could also cover arthurian legend which would include people like the members of the Knights of the Round-

Lancelot

Gawain

Percival

Mordred

Merlin

and many others

Some more miscellaneous picks from me would be Joan of Arc (Random but getting some french historical personas would be nice)

Jörmungandr would be nice to add to the pre-existing asguard personas and tie into the idea of destruction or ruin

But what do you all think?

Cote S4 Character Tier List P2. (With Staff this time)

For any of those familiar, apologies for this essentially being a repeated post but as some people did fairly point out i omitted the Principal and the Teachers so this tier list includes every relevant person now

Persona 6 Main Cast Hypothetical Arcana Ideas (And team composition/equipment)

For the P6 Protagonist based on the current stimulus we have from the trailer, it may be quite a contentious/controversial take but i would like to potentially see an MC who breaks away from the "MC has to be the Fool" granted overhauling this would either require making it canon that the wild card can be other arcanas other than the fool (or not the wild card which is even less likely) but could allow Atlus a new route to explore with this game's titular character

Personally if i had a to choose an arcana i would like to see with the MC the most it would be The Tower arcana, since i believe it would present a protag who has undergo a great upheaval or development throughout the game by first experiencing ruin/chaos either being the one bringing it about or having to endure it for personal growth

[P.S. saving the Death Arcana for someone else on the team]

Leaning into the game's stylistic outline from my interpretation, the MC's primary weapon could be a carving knife/short blade emphasising an occult/supernatural theme (granted i know Joker already uses a dagger) For some reason something like a german parrying dagger comes to mind but again that's P5 overlap still

Red-Haired Girl (Potential FEMC) Putting aside the possibility of her being FEMC, i would like to have an arcana that compliments/mirrors the mc, so i would choose the Death Arcana (One represents ruin/chaos and the other stagnation and inability to change) With it being one of the arcana we have yet to see on a mainline persona team i think having it alongside others like the tower would also thematically work with the occult/visually darker tone shown in the P6 teaser

This is just a personal preference of mine, but i would love this character to wield a scythe, adding to a gothic or haunting aesthetic atmosphere wise

as for other potential arcanas that we could see in the main team that aren't previously represented in other Persona teams that i would love to see

Justice, Judgement, Hierophant, Moon or Devil

Ayanokoji's Mental State/Mindset at the end of S4

This could be me imagining it, but when Ayanokouji said this within the season finale, i felt as though the camera work and the choice of wording as well as how he said this implied that he could be changing at some degree mentally

What do you all think about this?
