about Final Boss and Ending


		ending I'm gonna talk about the Final boss battle and ending here, so obviously it's a major spoiler~~ do not read if you still haven't finish the game yet!! Final Boss: The Great Father My Persona list: Tatsuya: Odin (Lv.55 Emperor) Eikichi: Brahma (Lv.67 Hierophant) Lisa: Abenoseimei (Lv.41 Magician) Maya: Artemis (Lv.51 Moon) Jun: Ishisu (Lv.54 Magician) Characters' Level: 75 Time to finish: 12 Rounds As you can see, the Personas I used are all just medium levels, how come it only took me 12 rounds (less than 10 minutes) to finish this GREAT FATHER??? It's because all of them have the ability to "reflect Magic". So basically we're immune against all of GREAT FATHER's attack, which means -- what an EXTREMELY EASY boss!!! As I was fighting it, I kept on thinking "what the...don't tell me THIS is all he can do..." Though, imagine if I equipped other Personas that can't reflect magic, I'll be in BIG trouble. But then, I've been using these Personas for almost the last half of the game (esp. during Factory)..... Abenoseimei (Lisa)'s Fairy Summoning and Ishisu (Jun)'s Mekidora together makes a pretty useful combo. Maya kept using "Cresent Mirror" (but she was put to sleep most of the time), Brahma (Eikichi) uses Mekidoraon, and Tatusya use Thunder attacks and occasionally cure-all. ending.... Play time: 91:05:00 Okay, I spend LOTS and LOTS of time at the Factory (trying my luck to met all those rare demons and asking rumors), Casino (Black Jack), and getting lost in mazes (at Karacol)....that's why the time exceed 90 hours. Normally it shouldn't take that long. I once plan to go beyond 99:99:99 since I wanna raise my level up to at least Lv.94 (so that I can use Lucifer), but I got lazy..... Anyway, the ending has come. It was a surprisingly sad ending~~~ Philmon is behind everything, and he has the same face as Tatsuya. everyone's memories were erased in order to saved Maya and the world. It is as if the game got "reset", like you just lost your saved file and all the time and effort you've spend in the game means nothing. "Memories" is very precious.... Y__Y, you cannot get the same experience and memories back. Even though all 5 characters bump into each other at the end....it wouldn't be the same. Jun's ending is nice; and Eikichi's ending implies the future reunion with Tatsuya and Lisa; and the final Tatsuya and Maya fateful meeting scene is just....open. Oh well, I think the ending is nice though, not typical lame happy saved-the-world one. Then Hitomi's song came up (Hitomi is a model-turned-pop singer who used to be produced by Tetsuya Komura, Sasaki Ginji's real life model? ^^;;). It's just an ordinary pop song (you'd heard the melody from BGMs before), plus the annoying off-key high-pitch female voice (don't like Hitomi or any of TK gals). But I think it fits the last scene of the ending.... oh well... Overall, this game is EASY!! I can figure out everything myself, beat all bosses without much trouble. The hardest part was probably at "Mt.Katatsumuri" where I choose to face the Nazis directly (but it was my fault that I didn't bring enough restore items and too lazy to get back to town). Also at "Karacol" where I got lost in that LONG mazes. I choose to left Yuki behind so I only have 4 people in my party. I ran out of supplies and was too lazy to go all the way back outside....that all add up to make Joker the most difficult boss in the game (in my situation). 4 people who ran out of HP/SP face against Joker...errr....not to mention none of our Personas can guard Mind attack, Tatsuya went just insane killing Maya over and over during the entire battle (Lisa & Eikichi's strong enough to survive and did all the work...life would be much easier if Yuki was there~~T__T). Furthermore, Joker isn't afraid of "Pegasus Shooting Star Fist", which made my "secret weapon" completely useless. At that point I really hated Joker/Jun...this @$%&^%#! brat~~
