I think the two likeliest Yosuke outcome for the p4 remake is that they keep him as not a romance option but also edit out all of his internalized homophobia moments (worst outcome) or we get this sanitized version of him with a token gay romance story with all the edges removed
Like I am so convinced that we will get a sanded down version of Yosuke no matter what in the name of being inclusive or whatever
And it's so wild to have a realistically internalized homophobia teenager in a 2008 who wasn't allowed to be gay because of how homophobic the times were
and in 2025 we might get the opposite with a by the book gay romance option for a character who had all his interesting character traits removed because of a perceived notion of inclusivity that is equally homophobic in a more pernicious way
#this is what i'm worried about but im not even sure jp atlus would Care to do this#the english localization team on the other hand.

"omg maybe we'll get a yosuke romance route!!!!!"
lol
#first of all i dont want whatever Imposter has the misfortune of voicing my special little guy to have that honor#and yes i Will be petty#the way YL was so fucking excited to answer all of our cameo requests for queer yosuke stuff#and the fact that its His cut voice lines that have endured#idk. feels bad. feels bad.#perhaps my loyalty to the OG iteration will kill me one day but i dont even like golden so are we surprised#anyway ive seen this for the past Several persona remakes why are y'all STILL getting your hopes up#they couldnt even integrate the femc stuff from p3p into reload let alone have the option for same sex romance w both protags#despite the fact that its ALREADY WRITTEN.#theyre not gonna let you date yosuke and theyre not gonna let you date kanji#and they couldve done that for the First remake because golden is right there#time period be goddamned you all know its a flimsy excuse when p2 exists#im willing to give props where due once we find out more about this#but i dont have high hopes and i dont plan on buying this#i didn't buy reload either i dont see the point when its Still not definitive#i also really just dont expect any improvements and i dont expect them to remove golden bullshit that i hate from the game either#if they can integrate it better ill be surprised but i just. doubt it#im not kidding when i say id be happier if they directly remake the ps2 version#golden has aged so much worse than it in So many ways#they have a Chance to remake it well but i know atlus too well and i know their priorities#ada speaks#ive earned the right to be a doomer abt this sorry not sorry#what happens when you turn 27

How do you go about doing character analyses, and how confident were you in them starting out? I thought about starting to do my own to not only understand the stories I like better, but to also become a better writer myself. I'm really nervous to share my ideas with others, though, since they usually come off as stupid. For example, I see a few parallels, connections, and meaningful differences between Yosuke and Kanji's characters, but I'm afraid to try analyzing further.
Media analysis is absolutely imperative to develop as a skill, so even if you don't want to share it, it's great to talk to friends or even just write it out without posting. Practicing by stretching those writing muscles will help immensely with both ability and confidence. In your case, I think that you may just need to put yourself out there and not worry too much about how it may be received. Write for yourself.
I'm not sure I've ever thought about confidence as it relates to sharing my thoughts, I just do it, because I truly believe in what I believe and I want to share it with people and start a conversation that might fuel further exploration. And while there have definitely been times I've felt like an idiot for getting stuff wrong, (mostly misremembering phrasing or something that does alter the overall meaning where it no longer fits), you just kind of have to take the L and recalibrate. It doesn't mean all of your ideas are stupid, or that you yourself are, it's just that you put a few pieces together wrong or jumped to a conclusion before everything was considered. One of the most important things you can do when analyzing media is being open to different interpretations (not just from others, but also from yourself) until you sus out the one you can put your full weight behind. You might run through a couple different iterations before you land on one that ties everything together, and you might look back and scoff at how silly those previous thoughts were, or you might say, "hey, I was right!"
Don't underestimate the importance of the community aspect of fandom either. If you only see a few parallels, point them out (to a friend in private, or in your own post) somebody might be able to add on and give you a different perspective you didn't consider. It doesn't need to be complete when you're still in the process of exploring. Just try not to overreach, I'd actually say that while you should believe in what you're saying first and foremost, it's a good thing to not be completely confident, because it generally prevents you from making unfounded and ignorant claims; be receptive if you are under criticism, but you also don't have to accept anything and everything that a critic says.

ive said it before and ill say it again: not nearly enough fanworks talk about THIS part of the souyo dynamic, the weird savior complex and trust yu has w adachi directly breaching the trust that yosuke has put on him. not only here, but in the game too, when yu chooses to meet with adachi in the tv world by himself without telling the others, yosuke waits for him outside anyways bc he knew something was up. yosuke feels betrayed by the fact that yu trusts adachi not to kill him right then and there more than he trusts the team to help him, but he still welcomes him back with a smile. because yu is the leader and yosuke will trust in him no matter what, even if it means watching him walk into the mouth of the man who killed the girl he liked, knowing full well it could snap shut at any moment and break his heart all over again.
basically too many souyo fics about internalized homophobia and not enough about all the other weird shit they have going on.

Ngl, I thought at first you were an actual good persona blog but I just can't follow you anymore after learning you don't like gandam style.
Normal persona fans really don't exist.

have u written any character analyses for any of the persona cast or are interested in them? i feel like your thoughts on them would be interesting to read
if by cast you mean the p4 characters, then yes, of course. i have a tag for it, #ada's analysis, more frequently filed under #ada's writing. I have a specific tag for #yosuke meta, more frequently filed under #yosuke appreciation too.

Alright ive got so much I wanna say... so bare with me. I really admire people who can stay attached to a character for so long (even if its on or off) I think that kinda dedication is so inspiring and cool. It's just endearing to just scroll through your old blogs and see your love for a character over the years. Okay that aside, does an archive of the persona artbooks still exist? 'Cos the one you reblogged no longer exists
Not sure which artbooks you mean, I'm sorry, I don't have an archive of them to my knowledge, just the manga and stuff. They might be up on the internet archive, I know a ton of artbooks are up on there.

i think ive officially unfollowed the final persona blog i somewhat trusted because again. inevitably. they've reblogged some deranged shit. i wish this fandom was fucking normal.
#ada speaks#:/#so glad im in fandoms where the main characters are all adults because y'all cant fucking behave#the lengths people will go just to justify weird shit when you can just. not be attracted to teenagers or ship them with adults.#its really not hard. like at all.#i just feel bad for younger fans into anime and persona and shit bc the indoctrination is insane#its like. terf adjacent shit. and really predatory#i havent seen pro/anti shit in like a year and it has been so refreshing. turns out no one really gives a fuck about your weird kinks if#both characters are of age and not related. wild how that works huh. almost like anime fandoms are always doomed to fall into this trap.#anyway yakuza 7 is better than any persona game because the whole cast is comprised of weird old men and not overly sexualized moe teens#just sucks bc i love the p4 cast but people are fucking incapable of connecting with fiction unless theyre horny for the main characters#ill always love yosuke and the others but#not like that.
