"You GO cheating hottie!" I didn't expect THAT from Ann LMAO, this was such a fun scene! It was awesome seeing Akechi's genius self again with his plan to outwit Shadow Sae, the line "you need brains for that" was super funny too, I do see why this wasn't used because it feels kinda scuffed but still it's a nice scene, Akechi lifting up and hugging Mona was adorable!
Idk i feel like a scene like this helps mask the eventual truth later, he seems more genuine like he's fitting in better and just talking to everyone more, but I guess the bridge scene became his big brain moment instead
@@devegas4910 me too since you're in it for the long haul anyway and a lot of the cut stuff is actually pretty good. it's just interesting that so much was cut from a game that's already so long
@@devegas4910I think it was more cause their other persona games were 80~100 hours, so a drastic shift to something 140~160 would’ve maybe turned off past players. Especially because they’d grown up, now having less time. Not to say royal isn’t long compared to the other games, but base game was similar in size.
I never get when people say "Akechi only faked being smart" despite the fact we see how cunning he is in Sae's palace. Not to mention the fact he probably had to always do the palace puzzles by himself as opposed to in a group like us.
@@nacitalatincirli793 They say that because they think every single case he's ever solved was staged by him this faking his ability to solve them. There's no way to prove or disprove whether or not they were all staged. However, what I'm trying to say is that we're still shown throughout the game that he is intelligent either way.
@@Gxmwp oh this is the first time I've heard about that, well let's see, in my opinion, I do like the sound of the cases being frauds to gain popularity, I think it fits the character, but that shouldn't mean that he is in any way dumb, I think he is very capable of solving those cases he has to but just didn't need to since they are rigged Idk, I'm trying to find a way in which both outcomes happen (the rigged cases and akechi still being smart)
@axhgro2839 The cases Akechi solved were caused by him. This is stated multiple times in game. He solves cases that he caused which then causes him to gain popularity. If you want a bit of a refresher, look up the cutscene of Akechi talking to shido in his office or the cutscenes that play during his boss fight in shidos palace. Akechi himself confirms the fraud behind his cases.
this is such a fun scene!! I understand why it was cut but I still really like it! seeing akechi's ego get inflated in real time is so funny LMAO. Plus "don't. this game uses a lot of brains" and "woohoo you go cheating hottie" was the icing on the cake. 10/10 scene.
A lotta little shit in the palaces is filler but they removed stuff like will seeds being backstory and funny lil scenes like this, its kinda weird to me, maybe this and the bridge scene don't both need to exist but idk, I think if anything they shoulda had a makoto moment with sae somewhere
@@SSlash I feel like some bosses are made to be hated to the core like Kamoshida. I feel that the Kamoshida will seed cutscene just made him less hateable since it showed him being repentant before he started to become corrupt af.
@@unknowed5048I dont even remember it exactly but I think if they had finalized it the intention behind those kinda scenes would be to show how they werent ALWAYS horrible to the core ever since hitting adulthood, but to show things that made them as terrible as they are, which is something the game never really does get into, not that every villain in everything needs a backstory or a tragic one, but something to go off of in a directors cut sorta thing like royal would be nice, but I dont think anything they could show would make their present day selves much, if any less hateable
Probably a mix of time and context. That being said, I would’ve loved if the Manager’s Floor was a few minigame scenes back to back followed by a confrontation fight pre-card
Dude no way you got Akechi puts his arm on Jokers shoulder and it just gets cut. Also picking Mona up us wild. This is so fire, I don't care if it throws the narrative off. This is to op to not add.
It's an understatement to say this scene needed more development and I completely understand why it was removed. But I do wish they had more scenes like this where Akechi gets to show off his strength and cunning. He really needed to be a more threatening rival before his betrayal.
I understand why they would cut it out but I think they should have kept it, considering that there are a lot of other scenes in the game that don't add much or are unnecesary. But it's still nice to be able to see it now!!
I really wish this was kept in the game!! I love Akechi and this is really fun for his character, it further exemplifies the fact that he's intelligent and cunning because some people still don't get that for some unfathomable reason It also gave us Akechi putting an arm around Joker and picking up Mona
Ignoring the part that this is majorly scripted and you don't have any real input, actually interacting with the Palace Rulers and confronting them on their own bullshit is actually an interesting idea. Pitty half the Palaces don't have you interact outside the boss battle, and the other half only have you even talking to them when they're setting up a mini-boss. P5 is a game of such wasted potential.
I really liked how shadow sae was more direct compared to other palace owners, who just lie near the end of their palaces. Something like this would've given us more time with her. Neat!
You know a character's good when you can do essays about him and even dive into a cultural analysis of Japan just by looking at his backstory. Listen o the guy above me though lol
This seems more interesting than regular poker tables and slot machines wonder why they scrapped this but the "cheating hottie" line seems out of place
Literally my only reaction here would be a Mona quote: "Crow, it's actually a little frightening how sharp you are..." Literally couldn't react any differently
@@starshape6650not really. akechi’s third semester expressions are new to royal and afaik don’t replace an old portrait slot like the other party members’ new expressions. if this scene is from the original game it shouldn’t call that expression because it doesn’t exist
@@cyanamespace I don't know what this scene looks like without modification, but since it was scrapped I imagine a lot of the lines don't have portraits assigned to them. As a result, while piecing the scene back together and cleaning it up for this video, the creator probably had to assign portraits themself and picked the 3rd Semester smile for a few lines because it fits the smug delivery, as opposed to just keeping his expression neutral.

I'm so glad we finally have context for the cheating hottie line
Also this whole scene is great, I don't know why they cut it
agreed
I guess because there wasn't really much of a point to the scene
looks like a cool scene but its just empty dialogue as opposed to the other levels in the palace
Probably a mix of time and context. That being said, I would’ve loved if the Manager’s Floor was a few minigame scenes back to back followed by a confrontation fight pre-card

"Don't this game uses a lot of brains" OUCH
At least he was assuming he wasn’t smart enough either lol
I did find it odd how in a casino themed palace, there was nothing about poker. Now we know why.
Morgana saying he cant reach the cards got a chuckle out of me lmao
I understand why they would cut it out but I think they should have kept it, considering that there are a lot of other scenes in the game that don't add much or are unnecesary. But it's still nice to be able to see it now!!

I really wish this was kept in the game!! I love Akechi and this is really fun for his character, it further exemplifies the fact that he's intelligent and cunning because some people still don't get that for some unfathomable reason
It also gave us Akechi putting an arm around Joker and picking up Mona
More Akechi 👀
Morgana playing poker is beautiful
It’s ridiculously hilarious
"Ain't this bad?" says Ryuji
"Wait, ain't that bad?" makes yet another return.
Considering how much dialogue was recorded and how much the scene was animated I'm surprised it got cut
Truly impressive to see new cut content out of nowhere,these disc where a gold mine shame most of them don't work to see more stuff
They got most of them working doe
THE WAY SAE SLIDES OUT IF THE ROOM 😂😂😂😂
anyone else thought akechi was going to throw mogana?
Cat smoke bomb?
I did 😆
Ryuji's p5d dance put the idea in my brain
Now that I got to see these lines in the context of the cutscene, I feel all the more that we were robbed when this was cut out.

i think i read this in an ao3 or something but I DID NOT THINK IT WAS REAL
Joker “nah I’d win”
1:22 Queen did call him Crow, probably a writing mistake
They had already decided on his name as Crow at that point in the game?
I like hearing new lines… but I can see why they cut this
Joker: "nah id win"
As someone got his first persona game this month and am in shidos palice, im surprised how much love akechi is getting in these comments
Hey trust me man, go finish the game before you go scouring around online, I'm sure shit randomly pops up but still lol

Sure! Feel free to use any footage from other videos if needed too, all I ask is some form of credit somewhere in the video description.
