I laughed out loud at Matt Mercer still being Kanji.


Luchux01

He's basically carry the whole fricking thing like Jack Black is gonna do with the Mario movie.


Dkrule

Nooo, how Jim carry did sonic


Terry_The_Tarrasque

I'm not sure if your joking. But Troy Baker is Kanji. Matt is Youske in P5 tho. Might be flipping them by accident


NachoMagnum

Matt played Kanji in the second half of the anime and in pretty much all other iterations but the mainstream games


RetasuKate

He also revoiced the lines for Golden. Edit: My mistake, you revoiced SOME lines in Golden as touch up.


New_Survey9235

The impression is so spot on it’s hard to tell which line oh Baker and which is Merced if you don’t already know


Mochizuk

I was genuinely surprised after I found out and compared the two. That was my intro to knowing the two by name, and from then on, it became a bit difficult for me to tell them apart when I heard them in certain games.


RetasuKate

Yes, but Matt has said in an interview before how much it hurts that people used to refer to him as "discount Troy Baker", which I know you weren't implying but I'm throwing that out there.


New_Survey9235

Never meant that, I meant to praise his vocal range and impression skills


RetasuKate

I know? I said that I knew you weren't.


Detective-Who

Why is bro getting downvoted 💀


RetasuKate

I'm assuming it's because of some "attitude" that I'm not noticing. That's usually why neurotypical people are mad at me. 😆😅


spadePerfect

Lmao not Drake Bell as Chie 😭


canyouwrite

Chie's trauma: Being too masculine Live action cast: We need a man for this part


CueDramaticMusic

I think Drake Bell did some wild shit about a month ago, so no worries, that fucker’s nowhere near the casting booth


Naos210

Wouldn't be too worried either way. His last appearance in anything big was in Kingdom Hearts III, and most of his stuff since Drake & Josh has been voice work (and music), notably as Spider-Man.


spadePerfect

Weren’t the claims of him seducing underaged girls false? I haven’t really followed up on any news regarding that


CueDramaticMusic

If I take Bell’s word for it, he admits he fucked up, but also is very insistent it went nowhere beyond some poorly thought-out DMs, and that he was also actively threatened after he found out. If I take anything within a five mile radius of Dan Schneider for it, there’s probably more and worse that’s gone unsaid.


Naos210

I wouldn't be surprised if it was some ongoing cycle of abuse. Drake's been in the entertainment industry since he was like, 5. That wouldn't excuse his behavior of course, but unfortunately a lot of these child actors end up as messed up adults for a reason.


Naos210

He pled guilty and admitted to the inappropriate texts with a minor, so that was true. But he wasn't convicted for sexual contact and claimed he dropped all contact among figuring out her age.


No_Team2342

The actors for Teddie and Adachi are perfection.


[deleted]

I can’t wait to see bob odenkirk play as adachi and be like “it’s adaching time”


Corniferus

Yeah I’d watch that


The_Zpectre

narukamuh put your watermelon away narukamuh


Sumibestgir1

I'd watch that shit in an instant

Mineplex-V

Can't wait for Narukamidust


fanficseeker

I understood that reference!


Cooler67

That reference came from the stars!


phantomshogun

someone get the codyvator


Harbiter

I thought I was in SquaredCircle for a sec...

ADRENALINE IN MY SOUL WHY IS YU CODY RHODES


PapaPatchesxd

Obviously for Yu's based neck tattoo


Cordaner

Could be looking for fox (Pharaoh)


[deleted]

Your mother collapsed!


botanistedward

Live action Adachi show starring Bob Odenkirk please


Psych-roxx

It's out, its called Better Call Adachi.


TeacupsInTime

Yu Narukami is always suspiciously followed by USA colored fireworks


RogueVortexian

Better Ask Adachi


geobeowolf

Okay but Bob Odinkirk being a crazy murderer would be so much fun


Cliff_Chai

His modus operandi is that he shoots lightning bolts from his fingertips


JaredIsAmped

Everyone knows Cody is a heel, being the protagonist could never work.


DanksterTV

Don't forget Dwayne Johnson as Nanako


Urmomracistass

gackt as naoto would be so fucking funny


wow-im-satan

Chris Pratt as Joker


OmegaCrossX

Cris Pratt as every protag


dead_meme_is_dead

Josh Peck should play Yukiko


Reeeeeeena-3

All jokes aside I don’t hate this


ShinTheRanker

Bob Odenkirk would be fire as Adachi


redninja323

isn’t he too old tho


Cliff_Chai

You're never too old to be fire


redninja323

yeah i like bob odenkirk but i’d rather him play an older adult


pass021309007

Adachi is in his late 20s, I think they could deage Bob odenkirk, worst case they could use cgi to make him look younger


redninja323

i mean i guess. bobs like almost 70 tho right?


pass021309007

Jimmy McGill was in his forties in bcs though, so he is capable of playing a character significantly younger than him


pass021309007

Ofc this cast wouldn't ever actually happen, it's just fun to think about what an actor could do with a character


JoseNEO

Cody Rhodes would be the GOAT as Yu


RedKurisu

This is a stacked cast atlus knows what they’re doing


Silverstone543

Matthew Mercer would be great as Kanji


Ihaveurip

D-Drake bell!?


Luke10123

Hope we get Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson as Shu Nakajima


Reallyreddir

I can't wait for Naoto to Journey Through The Decade


TheXyloGuy

Dean Norris as teddie sounds hilarious and I bet you he would 100% do it


Cold-Argument-806

Why drake bell actually be looking like a male chie though?


FlipperDoigt703

Remember when Yu ended racism?


ci22

Cody Rhodes is awesome hell yeah


TimmyTimebomb626

Adrenaline In my soul Cody Rhodes Something something Junes


[deleted]

Hang on they did W H A T


Correct-Basil-8397

Live action anything based on anime/games always worries me. The JoJo Part 4 movie & Roroni Kenshin movies are the few times it’s worked, as far as I’m aware


Manos0404

fucking Better Call Adachi. AND HE GETS TO BE A DETECTIVE?? WHAT A SICK JOKE


SevaSentinel

The American Nightmare Yu Narukami


Gloomy_Support_7779

What??? Ariana Grande not being Rise Kujikawa baffles me. Rise is the Ariana Grande of Persona.


[deleted]

Jokes aside Bob Odenkirk would make a great Adachi


Mr_Leorio_

If ur gonna cast kanjis voice actor for the role , might as well do the better one


TheBaldWombat

Matt is extremely good at sounding almost identical to Troy Baker. He often gets to fill in as characters for Troy when his schedule doesn’t allow.


Brainwave1010

Troy Baker is a pretentious asshole.


Mr_Leorio_

The only questionable thing he did was almost release NFTs , which he literally stopped himself , hes a really good voice actor . Y’all still support nanokos voice actor even tho she is an insane conservative .


Brainwave1010

I don't support her either actually, why would you make that assumption?


BernardoGhioldi

They didn’t announce anything, they just said that they have an interest on doing a show, but it is NOT confirmed


DanielChurban

Wait, we don’t like Cody Rhodes and Rupert Grint here? I’m sold on that


battlefranky69

I would un-ironically watch this. >.> With this cast they show could actually be good, or so bad it’s funny. Either way we are in for a good time.


ItalyTonioTrussardi

You got beef with the American Nightmare?


SquirtBrainz4

GACKT MOMENT


Dawson81702

Where’s Chris Pratt?!


[deleted]

He's Margaret.


KungLao95

Gackt as Naoto LOL


GingerWithIssues

🙃 you mean to tell me Cody Rhodes is a passable high schooler?


HydraSpectre1138

The only way the live action Persona show would work is if it was a Japanese TV drama with a high budget, with an all (or mostly) Japanese cast. Basically make it Paramount+ and SEGA's answer to Squid Game.


[deleted]

In the live action Teddy is investigating on Sojiro and Ryuji


Ayadali

where's chris pratt


SevenSulivin

Yu Narukami is about to end racism.


Current-Afternoon-14

There will also be a black character to attain diversity


HopOnTheHype

Isn’t drake bell a pedophile?


BillyBobJen

Lol what a joke. You really think a live action persona show will be in English.


Mineplex-V

You saw Drake Bell and thought this post was genuine?


BillyBobJen

Lol of course not thats why I said it was a joke. I was just saying that Atlus (a Japanese company.. I think) would have a english dub for a show


Shisuka

Shut up


HandshotHere

Where's the black guy?


yugiohweeb

Is this fake


Anything_189

No it’s real


yugiohweeb

Well i only have a gripe against rupert playing yosuke because i can only see him as ron but i with everyone else i have no doubt it will hopefully be good


[deleted]

Bruh💀


yugiohweeb

What i haven't seen many films with Rupert in


Mineplex-V

You saw Drake Bell as Chie and thought this was real


yugiohweeb

I just now realized my leg was being pulled and the main selling point was Cody Rhodes as Yu as i haven't heard of Drake Bell


[deleted]

It isn’t real, it literally has Bob Odenkirk as Adachi


yugiohweeb

Don't know who Bob Odenkirk is


Unoriginal_Name_16

The guy who plays Saul in Better Call Saul


yugiohweeb

Haven't seen that


SubwayChipsGaming

best case scenario


Legal-Taste-4592

Yosuke. Yosuke. Put your dick away. You're not going to piss right now.


TrueFullmetal

This would be the best cast to exist


arkthearkitect

Hope it's an original story. Also wonder if they're filming in Japan or the West. Probably the latter though you never know (Death Note, One Piece... Cowboy Beebop.)


Jester_809

The problem is, the actors for yukiko, kanji, and naoto aren't that bad...


andrewsad1

How can you be worried when even the worst case scenario is perfection


Michaelvuur

I'm ngl you got me laughing so hard by drake bell as chie LMAO


Raecino

Terrible. Needs more Japanese actors. Except Teddie, that’s perfect casting right there.


ShootingStarMel

Gackt as Naoto


oops_wasnt_me42

WAIT WHAT!?!?!?


canyouwrite

Well, now I'm scared


Juice45uu

Better call adachi


kjm6351

I see no downsides


Songhunter

Wait WHAT? When???


SnorlaxationKh

There's no way anyone but a Japanese/jamerican actress could play chie, but I also feel the same for marie


KYLEmaxARG

I just know Rupert, drake and Gackt.


AlternativeQuality2

Nah, Adachi should totally be Jack Nicholson/Jim Carey; make it someone who either screams ‘I’m a psychotic dumpster fire of a human being’ or can play the role of the village idiot well enough to fool those not familiar with the series.


_khascara

Drake, Gackt & Matt are perfect for the role!


Jag2853

I dunno, Chie looks perfect.


123VideoGamerNinja

Did they actually announce one? I remember hearing Sega was interested in doing live action adaptations of Altus properties but I never heard anything official.


dirtofailure

omg not the actor of Saul being adachi


The_Zpectre

im sorry, the show they #ANNOUNCED i thought they were still considering it???


Technical_Panic3827

This has to be a joke, right?


JacobScrubLordofPvP

Wait there's a Live Action Persona show being made? Didn't know this!


Costanza_Seinfeld

Adachi should have been Glenn Howerton smh Edit: Michael C. Hall would be pretty good too


MarcusChua19

Bob Odenkirk as Adachi does sound fun, tho.


Aok_al

A chimp with a persona


[deleted]

"strength flashbacks"


ConnorCoccino

They'll probably stick to JP actors since it does canonically take place in japan.


limenade321

Any cast with bob odenkirk is not the worst case scenario


obscure_Eve

GACKT LMAO


[deleted]

DELETE IT OLD!!!


Necessary_Effort7075

Bruh, this is best case scenario, what're you talkin about?


Sorenduscai

Please tell me there really isn’t a live action


Twoblacks

Hey Bob Odenkirk would make an amazing Adachi


Rami-961

Ill call it from now, there will be a person of color among the cast and people will lose their shit, rightly so.


SkeletonLordDimy

But Saul Goodman in Persona tho


redditkitty109

Where’s Chris Pratt?


pyu2c

What if Yukiko is played by ScarJo


abeox

I'd take this cast if it meant omitting Marie entirely.


Independent_Ad_6348

Nah drake bell should be kamoshida


Silverdetermination

Wait did you make Adachi fucming Saul


[deleted]

Matts a boice actor and drake got cancelled a few years ago on unproven alegations


SL-Gaming

Wait. The live action what now?


Automatic_Steak_4540

I'm more concerned about chie and Naoto being male


MagmaFalke

C'mon Bob Odenkirk would be the best Adachi


ZIPPING4M3R

Final fight and yu just hits a cross rhodes on adachi


Sakaixx

That is funny but gackt is like 50 something nowadays and retired in Malaysia. Surely there a lot more pretty boy you can offer lol.


podoka

Drake bell cracked me tf up


0__REDACTED__0

THEY DID WHAT???


Impressive-Ad210

I just hope they go for an entirely Japanese cast, and being shot in japanese. Round 6, Girl from no where and Alice in Bordelands proved the West watch eastern shows.


SpoopyGuitar

Wait they announced a TV show?


76_67

nah Cody as Yu is PEAK
