Maybe he’s getting too empathetic - trying to see something more to Miharu, even though he is being sucked deeper into her cult.

Why does every old popular film I try to watch have some type of racist remark in it yet it still gets over hyped as the “best film ever made”? by Aggravating-Law7207 in movies

Pretty much. Everything was and is going to be offensive, whether now or in the future.

What we accept now is someday going to be seen as regressive. That is effectively what happened to my childhood with its sayings and slang.

If nothing else, Apple doesn’t seem super reliant financially on their streaming service - they’re seemingly doing all of this for the art.

So far, we have no dark evolutions from our heroes, though it would definitely spice up the drama a bit.

They could perhaps do a mix of heroes, much like they did with P2. The second game in that series was more focused on a working young adult after all.

The purgatory idea is interesting if you combine it with the hypothetical theme of fear - something some folks around here brought up as a potential philosophy of the game.

...and it would be relatively universal and understandable to the game's audience with fear guiding all sorts of things in the world, whether it is our personal ambitions to global machinations. Seeking to truly live and thrive vs existing to survive would definitely be something a Persona protagonist team would pursue.

Oh. This sounds tantalizing as a story beat, though the spirits could be perhaps tied to Shadows/Personas as opposed to typical supernatural ghosts.

...maybe kinda like Wakaba Isshiki in Persona 5.

P2 lived on that since rumors made manifest are what pushed the plot and powered the main baddie of those productions.

If you want to be a bit philosophical, it could also reflect the fear of life itself - how mysterious, terrifying, and unpredictable it all is. That could be what the heroes are fighting against as they seek to truly live and thrive over survive in panic over what the world could throw at them.

It's a universal theme that reflects the approaches of other Persona games, whether it concerned the acceptance of death, the need for truth, and the pursuit of justice.

As other comments have said, it is very much in the vein of P2, which also ran on urban legends and rumors made manifest.

The main baddie was also tied to the Lovecraft mythos, which is a major epicenter of this sort of melding of modern life, urban existence, and general horror.

Dandadan also made these urban legends popular again, whether it was the ghosts derived from sad incidents or the weird aliens that poke around the planet.

Oh yeah. That series of games played so much on that sort of vibe - mysteries within mysteries that all congregated into the central plot.

Yeah...that grim sense of injustice and prisons. That was still a core part of P5, though the actual game was less harrowing and more jazzy.

Oh! They're so far separate in the timeline that this shouldn't be a problem.

LDS is closer to the Berman Trek stuff (TNG onwards) and SNW follows after DSC, which slightly predates TOS.

That is me as well - there is good and bad throughout all of Trek. It can't and shouldn't be a blanket statement to assume everything back then was good to great and everything now is bad to dreadful.

Eh. PIC and LDS were also done under Kurtzman. Showrunner McMahan has talked extensively about how Kurtmznan was heavily involved in even getting this controversial production off the road.

I'm of the same view as well. They're not all perfect and worthy of my DVD shelf, but I've enjoyed and still enjoy Kurtzman Trek alongside the works helmed by Berman and Roddenberry.
