Apparently I subconsciously want people to cry today?(I shared something on facebook and tagged a friend in it, now I'm afraid he's going to try to get back at me) BUT I WAS SO HAPPY WHEN I SAW THEM AT THE END. And I sympathize, not really empathize with him. I think part of the reason why he thinks its too late is BECAUSE he killed the only person who cared about him, accident or not. I think that's like a catalyst for him allowing himself to be used by the ESP
lolol I subconsciously wanna cry today so dw we fit perfectly!
Yeah, that’s why I get why he thinks it’s too late. I wanted to kick the person who fed him ideas about Izumi keeping him there and stuff because it’s like that’s wrong???? What are you doing??? He was getting better???? I don’t really like sympathizing for reasons that I can’t really explain, so I prefer to empathize. I feel why Persona would allow himself to be used, but then part of myself is just screaming “IZUMI’S DEATH WAS FOR NOTHING THEN.” I think that’s just me being symbolic though, I like seeing symbols in my life and assign meaning to things :x
Like you killed Izumi yes, but if he really meant something to you then that should be a wake up call for you to do things differently, to change. But then again I gotta read more cause I don’t remember if Persona ever found out that the reasons he confronted Izumi were just lies. Plus how he grew up affected him a lot too so I get why he’d rather be controlled and I’m just happy that he ended up with Nobara in a loving, healthy relationship that hopefully lasts for eternity. He does not need anymore sadness in his life.
EDITED: Just read my what I wrote and I’m not happy about it because I saw a message that I was not trying to send but somehow did anyways. Stop shoving your opinion down the throats of characters Calibri.
(sorry for spoilers in my ask), but Nobara couldn't even touch him without getting affected, though a huge part of that was because he felt betrayed by her. I do ship that really hard, for multiple reasons. AND PERSONA DOES KNOW THAT WHAT HE'S DOING IS BAD. BUT HE BELIEVES ITS TOO LATE. He's said that having experienced the light before just makes the darkness that much more painful. Though it'd be great to be able to touch him without dying or excruciating pain.
(It’s all good!) I had to sit down and read quite a bit to get my memory restarted on it, but yeah you’re right. (AND YOU’VE MANAGED TO GET ME REREADING THE MANGA GDI)
I just went back to go reread a bit and started around chapter 97? where Persona felt betrayed by her for letting Mikan escape with Natsume and I was like Persona don’t you dare do this to yourself and Nobara!!!! She only wants the best for youuuu ; A ;
He does know that it’s bad and that has resurfaced memories of why I didn’t like Persona all that much. It’s hard to relate to Persona personally, mainly because my morals would force me to still do the right thing if I knew what I was doing was bad, so I cannot fully understand why he believes it’s too late even though I do understand why he was led to believe that it was too late. I still feel the urge to go help him though, because no one should suffer like he did for many years. So I’m glad he found Nobara (I ship it as well) He and Nobara both seem tremendously happy at the end, so I ship for that reason as well as a few others. I’ll update you on when I finish rereading. Might take me a bit though.
I freaked out over his past so much that I can't really forget. But it's painful and, as stupid of a move as it would be, I REALLY want to hug him. Despite the fact that I'd end up dead (whether on accident or not)
Bits of spoilers so under the cut.
Idk how to feel about his past tbh. Like, he was manipulated and he killed the one person who cared about him (by accident) and that just completely screwed Persona up more than he already was because of his alice. If I had the ability to change something in the past, I’d make it so that Persona confronted Izumi but never overwhelmed him with his alice :S
I’ll try to find a nullification alice stone for you and have Mikan insert it :v or hope that you’re one of the few people who can touch Persona and not die.
How far did you get in the manga of Gakuen Alice? I'm kind of curious(also I need to talk to someone about Persona)
TBH I actually have finished the series, but it’s been so long(like 4 years???) since I’ve read it that I’ve forgotten everything. (I think that’s better than going back and rereading to break my heart. idk how you could reread the entire manga like props to you) I remember bits and pieces of the manga honestly, like time traveling and the rare alices that cause everything to go to hell pretty much. Creepy elementary school principal to boot.
Persona is the character that gives me mixed feelings because I feel bad, but then I don’t because I remember what he did.But then I see the ending, and I’m like damn it I want Nobara to be happy. PLUS he developed a lot as a character and I’m like A a a a a a why you do this to me.
I would love the typewriting monkeys!! I have ideas all the time but i never know how to execute them and then when i actually find the time to sit and write, I DONT REMEMBER 80% OF WHAT I THOUGHT UP?? And then my notes dont even make sense!!
I relate to you so hard right now, it’s scary. I usually tell people what my ideas are though, because when you get new ideas something’s gotta go out for that new info ya know? So when the time comes, I go back to the person I told my idea to and ask them to spit out the info that I told them. The person who I tell my ideas to is pretty much my secretary who’s paid with my love. I’ll tell her my ideas, and then she’ll make mental notes of it. SHE NEVER FORGETS. IT’S SCARY. And on the off chance that she does, she has the idea archived.
If you can’t find a human recorder/secretary, I advise that you chat with a person about your ideas using messenger or some other form of social media while you’re in the writing zone. Have that person ask questions about the plot, characters, and ect. When this happens, I find that my explanations are a lot more detailed, so all you have to do is just copy paste your chat onto a blank word doc and label it as notes so that this way when you come back, it’ll make sense and help you remember what you were doing! :D
