Yeah, Junpei's jealousy is consistent with his character but it just felt more natural with Minato who I think has a personality that might engender resentment. Minako on the other hand can form a S Link with him and is just much more chipper. It falls into line with his initially sexist outlook but I think it's just a pitfall of having his reaction be exactly the same regardless of gender or personality of the MC. 

Another aspect is for Junpei, Minako just keeps looking more awesome when you look at it from his pov.

 

She's a new transfer student that caused all the male students to buzz about, she was asked to join student council, she was made field leader, she is very good at combat and she can also get top of her class.

 

Add that with the little sexism Junpei had at that time, even with the SL(as long as it's not completed) it works. Junpei is not like Brosuke. Junpei did not like being second banana and voiced his issues with that, as the game goes on though that changes and he becomes of of her best friends almost like a brother.

In alot of ways he and Sokka share similarities.

 

Both lose a girl they love, both grow throughout the story into a more serious person. Both could be great teachers for kids.

 

Both also serve as the buttmonkey at first :P

I think it's just generally meant to be interpreted as his desire for wanting to protect Minako -- Junpei feels more or less concerned in his own way but at the same time his own struggles and issues eats away at him which causes him to freak out. Minako has lost so much but she acts and feels.. happy? Content. Junpei can't understand that -- He can't understand how she can feel that way and much like Akihiko, and some of the others, that creates concern and a need for him to protect her, partially due to strengthening his own self-esteem, but also to prove that he's not worthless to the world. It's what makes him such an authentic character, especially when they hear the news of their imminent death -- Junpei freaks out and takes his anger out on the protagonist. It's a memorable little character moment to show how human he really is.

 

All in all, what Junpei really desires is people needing him. To be needed.

Nah, he's too much into Chidori to want anybody else -- I tried my best to win him over as Minako but to no avail.

Always had Minako hook up with Shinjiro, so Ken had no chance.

I've only done Akihiko's romance because I'm one of those silly people who refuses to cheat on pixels.  :wacko:  Definitely want to try Shinji and Ryoji, but Ken?

LMAO. The best thing from Atlus was DeSU2 Break Record, and that was not even advertised!(still happy to get a release date!} but just lol, oh Atlus.

That's not actually a thing, is it? That would be dumb.

On the contray, it works very well and in fact adds alot more personal issues for Minako with that situation. Like all the guys but Junpei, I had no reason to really feel close to the guys(didn't dislike them, but as the character I saw no reason to feel close because they hardly ever bounded outside forced scenes) as Minato, completely different with Minako as she bounds with these outside the plot demands, and still bounds with the girls.

 

Big reason she's better then the blue haired brat.

I just read it on Neo, didn't catch the stream. I did see the DeSU 2 Break Record trailer for those who want it.

 

Also heard Kanjis outfit in Persona 4 dance is outlandish as heck, makes Arena Aki look fine, also the game was delayed.

 

 

Dance Chie!

SO HYPED FOR BREAK RECORD. If Overclocked is anything to go by, this will be an outstanding enhanced port.

Can't really understand all this Japanese nonsense, so I'm not sure how they managed to watch it on Nico.
