Cinematic Tale from Persona Q2 is still the absolute best song from the Persona series, hell maybe even SMT as a whole, the fact that it feels like the vocalists from Persona 3 4 & 5 welcoming the FemMC into canon is beautiful.

The Backrooms
A world where nostalgia and novelty attack you in the form of "art." I'm blown away. It reminds me of pseudo-3D games from the 2D era, back in the dawn of RPGs and the Family Computer (NES), before polygons and textures existed. Simulated 3D spaces built from looping, repetitive visuals: digital labyrinths unconstrained by the rules of architecture. I used to draw maps on graph paper just to keep track of where I was. That sense of confinement. That feeling of anxiety. Both are revived here in live action. The art direction is clever, incorporating elements of art, architecture, and psychology. This is a 21st-century liminal-space version of "CUBE," a work of surrealism and cubism in which video games of the 1980s and the modern world connect across dimensions.
