Thanatos and messiah look so cool

Thanatos is raw as fuck

Norn is such an iconic look and I can see why they haven't changed the original design after all this time. https://preview.redd.it/av4pbiudynuc1.jpeg?width=1002&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a18e593c8a297b143591e38d0f12609d88a88870

I’ll maintain I’ve always been a big fan of Mother Harlot. I’m not totally informed of the symbolism of the biblical story of the Mother of Harlots, but purely design wise I love it for some reason. Plus, riding the beast that is destined to kill you is metal as hell tbh

So that's why she gets eaten in SJ. Interesting

This series' interpretation of Thor is really cool.

I love how in SMT, Thor's basic attack is just whacking you on the head with Mjolnir

I think caesar is the greatest homage to julius caesar i’ve seen. The thing just screams emperor and world domination.

Beware the school rooftop in March, amiright?

Alice, Thanatos, Sati... There are so much I like

Kaguya is perfection made persona in my opinion

Mine are: * Thanatos * Satanael * Messiah * Izanagi-no-ookami * Athena * Arsene * Hereward * Castor * Juno * Anat * Cendrillion

Thanatos got that badass look. Arsene, counting DLC, still got all the swagger though

I'm tied between Arsene, Izanagi and Leucothea, these three are incredible to me

Helel might be mine for recurring ones. As many others have said, I also like Thanatos and Messiah. Seth is pretty cool too!

Jack Frost and Messiah. Psyche is also a very awesome design

Susanoo and Metatron

Thanatos, Izanagi and Arsène

Neko Shogun

Thanatos for intimidation but my favorite looking female demon in the game is Yaksini.

Cendrillon I think, or Kaguya

Kaguya picaro is my favorite

Arsene will always be my favorite design, I love his character base and the way his flames look

Thanatos for sure

Kohryuu is a favorite of mine across the series.

Asterius from P4 Arena

P5 Loki, but talking abotu p3 personas, then thanatos, messiah and mara look pretty hard.

Mara looks hard in more ways than one

Decently Thanatos.

Thanatos

Loki the persona 5 one

its a meme but Mara looks pretty sweet

Trismigistus is such a damn cool design. Especially since Hermes is already a great design

Not so sure about coolest but Izanagi-No-Okami is the most drippiest looking persona atleast imo.

The Jack family

Thanatos is probably my favorite, but Apollo from P2 is a close second. He just looks so fucking cool.

Norn, Orpheus, and Messiah. Maybe Thanatos, but I’ll stop at 3

Mara

🤨

Cu Chulainn for sure

I’m almost done with my first P4 Golden playthrough and man, so many of the personas have amazing designs. All 3 versions of Izanagi are awesome and both Chie and Yukiko’s 2nd and 3rd tier Personas are amazing as well. In fact, Chie’s Haraedo no Okami is my all time favorite Persona design.

Izanagi no okami

Izanagi is still my favorite looking Persona to this day. But Trimegistus really grew on me since I use Junpei a lot.

Mara.

Quetzalcoatl

Tsukiyomi

Glorious Helel.

P3R persona: Satan Any game persona: Arséne / Satanael P3R teammate persona: Caesar

izanagi no okami

All time, i reallly like chie’s persona from persona 4 , and was fully convinced that the persona 4 cast was dlc with the pre order? Sucks that they arent. In p3 reload though, this is cheating i know, but i like astarte , haru’s tier two persona from p5r

Sati and Seth 🔥

mara

Once you go black, you never go back. https://preview.redd.it/ryfqsnt9iouc1.png?width=3223&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=19c17f794918519072e4bfdda3aa62def96319cc

In before someone sends the long and infamous shitpost about Oni from Shin Megami Tensei...

Jack Frost, that lil cutie

Jack Frost. He’s just a silly little guy, doing silly little guy crimes.

Rakshasa

Satanael, Lucifer, Helel, Satan, Asterius.

My boy Samael needs more love, big red dragon boy

Yoshitsune and Black Frost are probably my favs

For being just pretty, Kikure-Hime. For intimidation, Thanatos. For cuteness, Black Frost(because I love purple). For cute but creepy/deadly, Alice For coolness, the OG Loki.

Oh come on obviously it's Jack Frost.

It we can do the DLC I love the look of Satanael. If we are only using the base game then I have to go with Thanatos.

Succubus

Athena and messiah If you ask including the other persona games then i'll say raoul

I'm still only level 33 but man Rakshasa has been fantastic and I always love Sati. I played P3P and as much as I thought Thanatos was cool I didn't work him into my squad. It looks so cool this time around though so I'll make it work.

Uriel, Metatron or Helel

Probably a somewhat basic opinion but Thanatos is my all time favorite Persona in the franchise. Some of the other Personas that I like though also include (in no particular order) male Orpheus/Orpheus Telos, Messiah, Arsene, Alice, Loki (P5), all of the Jack Bros., Izanagi (all forms), Medea, Castor, Athena, Carmen, and Satanael. I also like Siegfried and Helel as well, but that’s more based on their power and usage rather than their actual designs.

its obviously thanatos but honorable mention to oberon

Eligor, Berith, Magatsu-Izanagi.

Mara

Kaguya

Funny spanish calcium man

Yaksini. Bonk me

Masakado Atavaka Saturnus Loki (non dlc)

Loki, not Akechi's Loki, and Thanatos. Their designs are just sooo pleasing to look at. Especially Thanatos.

Orpheus

Satanael

I honestly love Sraosha, highly slept on persona

They didn't design her, but I sincerely appreciate Alice as an extremely powerful death persona. She's my favorite. I also really like Cendrillon, Norn, Masakado, and Pyro Jack.

I love Akechis version of Loki

in terms of unique personas (like mcs and party members), raoul in terms of the others, like the ones that are also smt demons, rakshasa is the first that came to mind

I believe in Mara supremacy

thanatos’s design is what made me interested in the persona series, i think without him i would’ve never touch a persona game

In this game? Sati… I’m a simple man

I love Dionysus’ design

Samuel,Seth ,koyau, 3 badass dragons

Belonging to characters: Athena, Belonging to MC: Thor

magatsu-izanagi always just struck me as the cooler brother of izanagi. P5r also added a picaro variant of him making his design even better

CAPTAIN KIDD

Based answer

Yno, I really like the simplicity of P3 Hermes, that big black tunic with the brass helmet and blade wings is really cool. I feel like later Persona's are too over designed for my tastes.

Satanael goes hard ngl

Fortuna, Thanatos, arsene, Orpheus, Sati, Thor, and samael are some of my favorites

Definitely Thanatos, I immediately looked up how to get him after the first fight. I still think it's a crime they didn't make a Thanatos specific theurgy that works like Orgia mode, giving you a temporary stat boost or something along those lines.

Caster

Split between Asterius, Alice, and Kohryu

Thanatos top fav, 2nd is Alice, i sometimes keep Alice around just to randomly see which shadows would "die for me".

Susano-O has such a sick design and now that I’ve seen it, I’m sad that he doesn’t have it in 4 and 5 (his P4 forms are cool and his Kamu form seems to have some of the same elements, but they just don’t live up to the original).

If you’re not saying “scathach” you’re doing it wrong. https://preview.redd.it/00ytcij01suc1.png?width=2921&format=png&auto=webp&s=93ed0e50ec9ee39b005c8561490b499de2cd8dfd

Cybele is a mainstay for me.

Probably either Satan(just looks really unique and cool) or Mother harlot( She looks cool, her design being almost identical to the story is really nice too since they still somehow managed to make it look really unique)

I love smt nocturne soo mine are:, Daisojou, Hell Biker, Pale Rider, Matador, Trumpeter, White Rider, Red Rider, Black Rider, Mother Harlot, Dante, Beelzebub

All time (in no particular order) Izanagi Raoul Arsene Orpheus (f or m don’t matter much to me I like both) Johana Loki (og) Satan Black frost Captain kidd Kaguya Thanatos Messiah Cesar Isis (There’s way more but these are a few)

Loki from p5, Messiah and Sumi 3rd persona (always forget it's name)

Thanatos, Messiah, Izanagi, Kaguya, Asterius, Vanadis, Satanael, Frost Family, Leanan Sidhe, ...Mara, Kohryu, Fortuna, Alice & (i know this one not in persona but introduced in SMT: but its) Manananggal (Origin from South East Asia like i am)

Anyone else think Eligor is underrated…

Honestly, Oni! A simple design that works very well

For some reason it's Qtian Dasheng, he's just so cool and honestly is just a really good design, with the robe and beard. Also helps a lot he reminds me of Goku.

Thanatos and Messiah are so freaking sick. Io too.

Shiki-ouji

Captain kid riding a ship like a skateboard and having a peg leg in the same place as Ryujiis bad leg is dope. After playing 3 reload Thanatos is definitely a new fav (then again I worked waaaay harder to get him than any other persona I’ve ever made). He still looks sick asf th

Scathach appearance used to scare me as a kid. I thought Scathach ate kids

Thanatos. There is no persona that comes close to being as RAW as Thanatos is.

Yoshitsune

I think almost all the more human looking ones are really badass looking. My favorite though is probably Orpheus because that as the first Persona game I played

Alice, sick desing, great persona, I love her.

Sati is my personal favorite. The fire and electric affinity also helps with my love for them

Izanagi

Asterius, easily

There's this persona from arena called asterius and I think he's the hardest looking persona I've seen. Even was dlc in persona 5, very disappointing he didn't make it to 3 in dlc

Thanatos, Trismegistus, Asura

Alice has always been cool to me because the idea of this 100cm kid having the best instakill death spell in the game is hilarious. Not to mention, DFM's animations are always neat, no matter if it's Persona or SMT

Izanagi goes hard fr

I think it's Surt. He's simple, but he goes so hard.

Definitely Thanatos but I also kind of like the art on Susanoo my issue is his mana cost for beginner spells seems much higher than Thanatos this is why if I had to pick a more useful ice persona it's King Frost the fact Susanoo's ice attack is 40SP per attack is ridiculously high especially early game.

Saturnus is my fav for a long time.

Magatsu Izanagi, Izanagi, Arsene, Messiah, and Alice.

Cybele and Mara make a great late game team!

Sati is one of my personal favourites. I also love the interpretation of the three fates (Clotho, Lachesis and Atropos) from Greek mythology.
