NeoGAFFer "duckroll"
 
Set in another furturistic city 10 years after the events of Persona 3, the anime revolves around the undead that disguise themselves as humans known as "reverse". It'll be a supernatural story like the Persona series and involve 3 brothers.

Director: Atsushi Matsumoto (Blood+ and GitS:SAC episode director)
Writer: Yasuyuki Muto (Chevalier chief writer)
Original Character Design: Shigenori Soejima (Persona games)
Animation Character Design: Yuriko Ishii (DtB and Ouran episode animation director)
Persona Design: Nobuhiko Genma (???)
Music: Taku Iwasaki (WHR, ROD)
Animation: A-1 Pictures (some studio started up by Aniplex)

Starts airing Jan 2008 on Animax, and selected Tokyo MX, MBS, CBC channels.

The official site is http://www.persona-ts.net/ but I don't think it'll be up until this weekend.

HOLY FREAKING CRAP!

First the announcement for the game (Hoping that still stands here), and now an anime!? My god, it can't get any better than this.

Edit: They call them Reverse... Kinda like the Reverse term for the Tarot Cards.

And I wonder what's that shadowy-looking demon...

Edit 2: Uhh... Maybe it's just me, but i'm not feeling too enthusiastic for a Live-Action Persona gig... Mostly due to the fact that I think there's alot of ways they can mess it up, and few ways to prevent it from happening.

The official site ( http://www.persona-ts.net/ ) is now open, but there isn't much to see at the moment.

You can see some lineart for the lead characters here, though:

... Much <3, Orochi.

Anyone with a decent understanding of Japanese, think you can find out what those Persona's names are?

... And while we're at it, the 2 chicks? <<

The pinkish haired girl is Megumi Kayano, and the blue/purple haired one is Kanaru Morimoto. We don't know the Persona names yet.

Can't wait to see it. I'm about halfway into Persona 3 and loving it. Had to take about a 3 month break though because of school =/

Holy crap, didn't even realize it. Big thanks to Akito for letting me know.

Persona -Trinity Soul-'s first episode has been subbed already. Having seen it, anyone whose played the original Persona's or P3 are going to find a few surprises in this episode.

Alright. Barring one sentence I managed to catch, it was pretty good.

Then again, I only saw one, and I can't understand japanese to save my life... ._.

Prolly wait a bit before other Subs start showing up to see which are best.

Just finished the first ep. I really enjoy how its doing Persona combat.

Nice musical nods too - sounds like they got the same rapper vocalist from the game for BGMs in this one. A piece right before the eyecatch sounds almost exactly like him, unless I'm mistaken and its a piece from the game.

Either way, good first ep.
