AND another fighting game related unsurprising moment..
After you reach the boss of every fighting game ever.
And especially if you get the secret boss.
They kick your ass from here to kingdom come in less than 40 seconds.
SNK is notorious for this.

I just beat this a couple of hours ago...it was sad. I probably would've found it sad enough to cry if I were attached to the main character more. 'Swat happens when games have main characters like him, though.

ANYWAY.

1. I predicted the Chairman being evil, sorta. He was the only character with bad voice acting, so I KNEW he was hiding his true personality.
2. The main character dying. I figured as much when I got closer to the end and I was told that Aigis was the main character for The Answer


Now I'm onto The Answer and I've come across the same annoyance I did in FFX-2 because you name the main character xD

Also I got my ass handed to me by the first boss. I don't wanna level grind at the beginning of the game, so I guess I'll just load it up and try it again and again ._.

No way, you just beat it too? Thought I was the only one who bought it so late.
Spoiler: P3
It was a great ending.
But I totally saw the chairman coming, although not because of his va : P Really, he was always suspicious. He's so knowledgeable about the dark hour and he's able to stay awake during it, yet he has no "potential". Not to mention his jokes: anyone with a sense of humor that lame has to be evil...

YES. I was about to say that, but wasn't sure if it qualified as a "least shocking moment" since it's not supposed to shock you. Anyway, I sometimes really hate SNK for that. You barely beat the character that you think was the last one and then... POOF! Out of nowhere the secret boss that beats you to rubble without even breaking into a sweat. And then you pour 5 more dollars into the arcade machine.

That has to be the most screwed up moment in the entire game.
Spoiler: Regarding that TWEWY moment
That gave me multiple reactions. First of all: "ZOMG, Joshua killed me! I hope he doesn't bust something like that out again to get me erased or something.
Then after I realized that being near Sho gives Neku "headaches": "Pi-Face killed me. They're gonna reveal it on day 7."
Day 7, Week 2: "I knew it."
Day 7, Week 3: "Hm, what's he talking about... what memories? *video starts* OSHI- I almost forgot about that! Bang... Bang... ummm.... the hell? There goes Sho. So how did Neku die then? *Bang* Oh, crap..."
Suprised the hell out of me.


Now to put in something new...
Spoiler: AJ, the entire game
Phoenix was pulling the strings behind the scenes. God, that was obvious.

How can they NOT be shocking? I never saw 'em coming.

Please don't check it unless you've finished it, eh?

I agree... once you have all the facts it makes sense, but the writers did a very good job of distracting you so it would come as a total shock the first time it comes.

Whoops, I thought this was MOST shocking! Oops!

Spoiler: "Persona 4"
-Every victim after Yukiko is obvious after they've been mentioned once.
-Nanako being the anonymous student.


Other than that it wasn't too bad.

Spoiler: "Persona 4 - Shocking"
-Adachi did it. Seriously, like just before the list of names came up I was like "...Adachi. It's Adachi! HOLY SHIT NO WAY. NOT ADACHI. NO. FREAKING. WAY." I mean I was getting "chairman" vibes from him, but that was because I was just watching his voice actor in something where he plays an evil role. Other than that I had no reason to suspect him until Naoto laid everything out. I THOUGHT WE WERE BEST FRIENDS FOREVER, ADACHI ;_;

-Souji and Dojima are dumb enough to leave Nanako alone after receiving the warning letter, leading to her kidnapping.
-Souji tells Dojima everything right in front of a TV, but then doesn't even stick his hand in there to show him that he's telling the truth. Nor when he gets to the station. Dojima probably has one in his hospital room, too. I can force myself to think that he didn't REALLY want Dojima to believe him if I must, though.

These were the only things that nagged me, but still, I expected better of this game. I know Atlus could have found a way to get Nanako kidnapped without anyone being stupid xD
