In my personal head cannon the slime that attacks Yusuke during his first outing is the same slime in this video. He realizes too late he forgot myriad truths instead instead learning foul breath because he was button mashing during a level up
honestly man - he gave me a hard time the first playthrough, couldnt even imagine doing it with only slime. your persona runs are dope and super fun to watch, thanks for the fantastic run!
Frankly, I find Mitsuo more frustrating than either of the final bosses. Not necessarily harder, but even in a standard playthrough it just seems to drag. I think I died more times to Shadow Teddie on my first playthrough, but I still found it more fun.
Good lord this run must have been a nightmare to do! I’d have stopped at Yukiko if I’m being 100% honest with you! But this was an awesome video, keep up the good work :)
Challenge run idea: Every persona you have when you clear a boss is cursed and cannot be used in any way, they must be thrown away and never touched for the rest of the run. This also means you cannot use them for fusion or cards. To keep it interesting, you must have a full stock of personas for every boss.
bro pump it up with more challenge runs, hope you'll touch the Xeno (Gears/Saga/Blade) series, not played much Xeno-games myself, but i think this series will be a great and interesting field of research 4 u ~
This is really well made. I was surprised by the relative size of your channel compared to the quality! Will be checking your p5r runs when I complete that game, too
His vids are really good for being spoiler free and giving tips tbh I was stuck in p5 basic and realized from his no attack run that there's plenty of ways to stay alive that don't involve being aggressive as all hell to force knockdowns and AoAs
I think the bar items are designed to be novelties; hence, the silly appearance of a lot of them. A bit odd after P3P where gems can buy an item that insta-kills Nyx or Reaper.
cool video, although not surprising given that Persona 4 Golden gives a LOT of options. If you ever come back to this series, would you consider doing a challenge run using Persona 4 vanilla? There were things I liked about Golden but the extra content did make the game much easier than the PS2 original.
You should try to do a challenge run of a Persona game where you're not allowed to use any Magic attacks (other than Almighty, if you feel like it). This seems like a monstrous task, so Easy or Normal mode seems best for that sort of feat.
no, you can change resistances with skills having priority over the demon's actual resistances (Null Physical has priority over Slime's Physical resistance) but two "Resist Physical" won't stack
Many MegaTen games will have demons/persona that have a native elemental resistance but then learn (or can be given) that same resistance to its skill list strictly so it can be passed down to another demon/persona via fusion.
Honestly fire weakness isn't that bad if you've got the right spell card. But that's only if you want to use a spell card. A rare one at that. And I'm pretty sure you have to get it from Metatron, which requires level ups. Nevermind. Honestly, by the time you get all the magatsu xandrites and ryugu stones etc. To craft the exp 50% weapons, you will either be at the end of the game or would have grinded up to level 99 already. If items could carry over to NG+, I could at least claim them to not be a waste of time. You really don't get why NICE Guy helps Tough Guy back up?
Worse than having no weaknesses though. :) Yep, Tough Guy would've got himself up and attacked anyway, he doesn't need Nice Guy's help (unless stunned). Thanks for watching the vid! Appreciate you being here.
Well for the gen shop I think the only thing I bought was something for yukiko but I kind of regretted it. I think she had a 100addional sp item that I never ended up getting bc it was too expansive/ too hard to grind for the gems
just wanted to say thanks for the way you handled not spoiling the killer!! I hate missing parts of videos cause of stuff like that cause i love hearing the battles
Hey, I know I'm late, but this was a good run and a good video, I've wanted to do a similar run myself (just for myself). I would like to offer a bit of feedback, in regards to boss fight speed-up: I think it would be nice if you sped up most of the fight, but slowed down to normal speed to demonstrate important mechanics of the fight, like the guy helping the other guy up in the Kanji shadow fight. Great video, and I look forward to watching more
Thanks, yeah that's something I'm working on more and more. If you've seen my most recent video (Persona 3 Portable) then you'll probably have noticed me implementing what you mentioned. It takes a LOT more time to edit but it makes for a better video, agreed. Cheers!
Haven’t finished the video but one thing I noticed while watching so far is the audio balance of you vs the music could be a bit better. I feel your voice volume is fine but either the music for around the kanji fight should be toned down or increase your volume imo. Having your voice and the music around the same is clashing a lot.
Honestly, the only saving grace is if you get lucky and get a magician card during shuffle time, you can get null physical on slime, but besides that, slime isn't great.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but can't you block ailments by guarding? And doesn't she telegraph her world's end and summons to yomi combo by casting stagnant air and mind change the prior round?
@@RPGchallengeruns glad I could help. That combo is painful because the preceding mind charge makes world's end hit for a lot, and with stagnant air the enervate is pretty likely to stick. So that's one less hurdle to circumvent. I gotta say, you not knowing that trick makes this victory even more impressive.
I beat this game like a couple months ago with my boyfriend thinking Marie was the true final dungeon And we got the true ending but now I'm hearing that there's a final dungeon You can miss?!? With the true mastermind??? Wtf?!? Why the hell would they make it so easily missable??? That's so stupid and a waste of effort if you're going to make your content that easily missable
It's a shame he can't evolve these weak personas from the challenges, I would find it even cooler if I could see what cool things there are after so much time spent on these personas.
imagine in the end the MC summons Slime to use Myraid's Truth
In my personal head cannon the slime that attacks Yusuke during his first outing is the same slime in this video. He realizes too late he forgot myriad truths instead instead learning foul breath because he was button mashing during a level up
The way slime would use myriad Truth would be Orpheus style (head cracks open)

I can't believe Slime saved the world. Bless you, Slime. Bless you.
Slime goodest boy 😆
I respect that you don't say who is the killer in the story even tho you are doing a full game run. Big thumbs up
Thanks, I always try to keep things light on spoilers. Cheers for the comment! 😀
Though, I'd say everyone knows who it is at this point, what with all the spinoff advertisements
Come to think of it, HOW THE FUDGE DID YOU GET TO THE END OF THE GAME IN ONLY 43 HOURS!!!!!!!
@@petermcdonnell6428 he probably fast forwarded through cutscenes
@@kuirivito you do make a good point there
I think I'll be having nightmares about Mitsuo for the next 10 years of my life...
honestly man - he gave me a hard time the first playthrough, couldnt even imagine doing it with only slime. your persona runs are dope and super fun to watch, thanks for the fantastic run!
Why did you use an attack mirror vs mitsuo if null phys didn’t work?
Frankly, I find Mitsuo more frustrating than either of the final bosses. Not necessarily harder, but even in a standard playthrough it just seems to drag. I think I died more times to Shadow Teddie on my first playthrough, but I still found it more fun.
I’m SO happy that finally someone did a slime only run :). This was literally my first idea when i thought about doing a challange run in p4g😁
Channels like those are the reason why i pay for internet. Keep it doing lad.
You're very kind! Appreciate you leaving a comment - keeps me motivated! 😀
Thank god Slime in P4 doesn't have the same all-elements all-phys weaknesses as mainline Slime, huh? Nice run!
Good lord this run must have been a nightmare to do! I’d have stopped at Yukiko if I’m being 100% honest with you! But this was an awesome video, keep up the good work :)
Really appreciate the kind words, it keeps me motivated to do more. :)
See you in the next Persona run!
I almost stopped at yukiko my first time playing p4g 💀💀 no one could've warned me about that boss
“The thing to do is respect The Reaper. Respect him. Respect his damage output.”
So have him humiliate me. Got it.
Haha the Reaper definitely doesn't mess around! XD
Fantastic run! I'll be on the close lookout for any more Persona runs you may do!
Appreciate your enthusiasm!
Got a new one coming next weekend! :)
The youtube algorithm has blessed me with your video. Subscribed and looking forward to the other ones.
And you have blessed me with your time! Thanks for watching and leaving a nice comment! 😀

This... This was madness.
Idea: Can You Beat Shin Megami Tensei 3 with only a Kodama?
SMT3 is definitely on the "to do" list! :)
@@RPGchallengeruns :D I strongly look forward to what you do to it! First SMT I ever played, waaaaay back on the PS2!
Criminally underrated video
Nice content glad to have bumped into ya for runs and commentary
Idk your commentary is just so funny I love it
bro pump it up with more challenge runs, hope you'll touch the Xeno (Gears/Saga/Blade) series, not played much Xeno-games myself, but i think this series will be a great and interesting field of research 4 u ~
Definitely! Love the Xenoblade Chronicles games and will definitely do a run of one of them at some point!
I loved the video! My only complaint is that the music is much louder than your commentary. But great job!!!
A fair criticism, and something I'm still working on in the newer videos. Cheers! :)
This is really well made. I was surprised by the relative size of your channel compared to the quality! Will be checking your p5r runs when I complete that game, too
Appreciate the kind words! :)
We have another P5R video coming next weekend if you've now finished it.
His vids are really good for being spoiler free and giving tips tbh
I was stuck in p5 basic and realized from his no attack run that there's plenty of ways to stay alive that don't involve being aggressive as all hell to force knockdowns and AoAs
@@isumkitchens5329 Exactly!
Amazing challenge run, thank you for the video!
Thanks for the kind words, hope you check out our future runs too! :)
wow! only 100 subs??? thats nuts greay video.
Two months later and we've blown up to over 2k - it's crazy!! Never thought people would enjoy my videos this much haha. XD
The fact that you survived both physically and mentally is a testament to your bollox and persona score, AquaDude.
Ah yes, just me and my schlime.
Who needs friends when you've got your slime?
43:45 The phrasing made it sound like his final buddy was Jesus Christ and I just 😂😂😂
your playthrough was like crazy. nice video. it sure had a lot effort behind it.
47:44 i mean being a party alien ufo does sounds fun if you ask me
slime is actually op, and no one could or can convince me otherwise
Yeah he has some upsides, NGL!
Very, very small upsides, but still upsides! XD
The only weapons I used from the night place is the 50% exp boost weapons for grinding low level party members.
I think the bar items are designed to be novelties; hence, the silly appearance of a lot of them. A bit odd after P3P where gems can buy an item that insta-kills Nyx or Reaper.
Yeah gems are super OP in P3P! 😆
Rag taught Mistress Shiroku how to be a dickhead.
I love rpg challenge runs you got a sub
Thank you so much, every click really does count! ^^
this video had me hook, great job!
Thanks so much! ^^
I watch this all the time, really awesome
Glad you enjoyed it!
rimuru nods in approval.

37:55 that joke was 4 days away from being dated lmao
True! Seriously though, that was a LONG wait! XD
Mind Charge into Mind Charge, the ultimate reaper combo. When will he learn?
Haha yeah, the Reaper is so stupid sometimes XD
And again I'm amazed by the perseverance of some individuals
I know I’m late but just wanted to say I love your runs dude! :D
I never bought anything from the pub in game except for in NG+ buying the exp up equipment to grind everyone to 99 for the secret boss fight
Glad I'm not the only one! But yeah the XP equipment does save a lot of time, that's a good point.
I always laugh when Yukari in P3 learns Wind Break
I think someone likes wind skills.
You should try to do a challenge run of a Persona game where you're not allowed to use any Magic attacks (other than Almighty, if you feel like it). This seems like a monstrous task, so Easy or Normal mode seems best for that sort of feat.
Oooooh, an interesting suggestion!!
Great content mate. Cheers
Appreciate you being here!
Three years after I play p4g I just realised that shadow kanji is in a bouquet with male and female symbols
Ah yeah, very symbolic!
Imagine using the blue corpse Slime that's weak to everything
37:58 boy have I got some news for you!
A lot of challenges in P4G suffer at shadow mitsuo, kekw.
The guy is no joke!! 😆
the only thing i ever bought from the pub was those chie shoes
id love for you to post more videos like this!!
Laura Bailey is a treasure for my home state.
Yeah she's awesome!!
Can you do the same thing, but with Jack Frost?
I'll add it to the "to do" list! :)
Clearly I need to listen to the persona 4 album, because all I could do was sing along with a songs in this video instead of paying attention
10:31 I used the inline skates for Chie fairly briefly before I inevitably came across something better
I just felt free to type something since I was prompted to
And I really appreciate it!
(Your comment gave me a good laugh, so thanks 😂)
Geuss you can say Narukami's a slimeball
This man deserves more subscribers
Wait. A. Second. You can have double resistance to things? Is that applicable to all Persona and SMT games?
no, you can change resistances with skills having priority over the demon's actual resistances (Null Physical has priority over Slime's Physical resistance) but two "Resist Physical" won't stack
Many MegaTen games will have demons/persona that have a native elemental resistance but then learn (or can be given) that same resistance to its skill list strictly so it can be passed down to another demon/persona via fusion.
Who else here loves the JJJ laugh from the spider-man movie?
Top-tier meme 😆
i get the equipment from the pub just cuz it looks cool
True! I didn't even consider the cosmetic element!
Good video, but can you turn the music down a bit? It makes it hard to hear you
A fair criticism, thanks for the feedback. I'll tone it down in future runs. :)
Slime be pogging
What a guy!
Honestly fire weakness isn't that bad if you've got the right spell card. But that's only if you want to use a spell card. A rare one at that. And I'm pretty sure you have to get it from Metatron, which requires level ups. Nevermind.

Worse than having no weaknesses though. :)
Yep, Tough Guy would've got himself up and attacked anyway, he doesn't need Nice Guy's help (unless stunned).
Thanks for watching the vid! Appreciate you being here.
Rise > Futaba
No contest.
And the war begins!! 😆
I've never bought anything from the nighttime pub because I've never entered the nighttime pub because I've never played this game.
Hahahhahahahha... This made me laugh way too hard! XD
Thanks for putting a smile on my face. :)
Well for the gen shop I think the only thing I bought was something for yukiko but I kind of regretted it. I think she had a 100addional sp item that I never ended up getting bc it was too expansive/ too hard to grind for the gems
honestly if I made the rules I'd allow mara to be used once he's unlocked cuz of nocturne and p5
Damn bro, you're good
just wanted to say thanks for the way you handled not spoiling the killer!! I hate missing parts of videos cause of stuff like that cause i love hearing the battles
why are you watching full playthroighs of games you've never played and care about the story of. go play persona 4 bro
You're welcome! I don't mind adding a spoiler warning because it only takes a few seconds. :)
Hey, I know I'm late, but this was a good run and a good video, I've wanted to do a similar run myself (just for myself).

Now... Do SMT V on hard with only Slime Affinity, including the DLC super boss 😛
is it possible that you can do a persona 3 or persona q/q2 run?
the killer is REDACTED
great vid!
Nice run! Keep it up
14:14 Ahhh, the TRUE final boss: Kid with glasses
Haven’t finished the video but one thing I noticed while watching so far is the audio balance of you vs the music could be a bit better.

Yeah that's a fair criticism, thanks for sharing. A few people have said the same thing, so I'll be sure to tone it down in the future. Cheers!
Now this challenge but in base persona 4
the nightime pub is pretty useless yeah, way better to use gems a different way
Phew, glad I'm not the only one who thinks so! 😆
I try to do this on smt 5 got a slime and made it have weakness to everything except physical moves and I quit less than halfway
I'm not surprised! That sounds brutal!
33:30 in 2011 october 25th the exchange rate would make this exactly 655, what the fuck do they pay him
Great video
The dedication you put into this run is incredibly amazing 👏
Thanks for the kind words! 😊
Ok I subscribed
