Persona 4/Funny

"Naoto: A straight answer, please. What is your true involvement with the murder case?
 * Kanji: "So, uh... someone's killing people with a TV...? What, is he beating them to death?"
 * This clip. Especially the line "C'mon, Make me a man!"
 * The nightclub scene. How they became drunk on non-alcoholic beverages, we may never know...

Yukiko: Weeeeell, we go rescuing people who've been kidnapped by jumping into the TV! And theeen, we do stuff like, "Persona!" with our Personas and beat the crap outta Shadows...

Naoto: *sigh* Are you making fun of me?

Rise: Ish true! Personaaaa! *passes out*"

""Kanji! So you WERE after my fuzzy fur!""
 * The nightclub scene again, during the King's Game, and picking Yosuke as your target.
 * King Teddie.

"Vinny: Or we could Galactic Punt a freaking tank!
 * The contest (you know which one). The funniness of that scene can only be conveyed by a single line: "I'd hit it". And it's followed up immediately by the Amagi Inn scene, basically an hour of hilarious cutscenes.
 * Speaking of the Amagi Inn scene, its being taken Up to Eleven in the Vita updated re-release. One of the first screenshots released upon the announcement was a still for an animated cutscene version of the Amagi Inn scene.
 * About the contest... you know those costumes the guys use there? You can use those in The Golden.
 * Generally speaking, if it's a school function, there's going to be at least one of these. The campout and the introduction of 'Mystery Food X', the Port Island trip with the aforementioned nightclub scene ('Kiiiiiing's Game!'), the... 'Beauty' Contest is set at the Culture Festival... Yasogami High is just a naturally comedic school, I think.
 * From the Giant Bomb Let's Play, episode 90 at about 1:50.

Jeff: Kick the tank (x5)!!

??: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHH!"

"You feel as if a thousand showers will never make you clean..."
 * Heck, any parts of their Endurance Run are loaded with hilarity. Their reaction to the Seeker enemies in the Striptease are particularly funny.
 * During the school festival at the couple's cafe, the player can get Yosuke to sit on the girl's side and ask him what kind of guys he likes. Yosuke gets way too into it.
 * The school camping trip, after :

"Chie: "Is it all right if I keep this?"
 * Peachi's comic and its sequels count, somewhat.
 * Persona 4 has only just been released to the States, yet for many people there's quite a bit of funny moments even early in the game.
 * Yosuke: *after a Groin Attack* "I think mine's cracked too! Critical hit to the nads..."

Teddie: "Fo' sho'!""

"Teddie: "Can you sense [Yukiko's] presence from the inside?"
 * Oh, just wait until you get to the camping trip arc. This Troper was nearly in tears!
 * This troper has. Yosuke's reaction to Yukiko's and Chie's "curry" was downright hilarious. Then your hero is But Thou Must'd into eating it-- *spit* *passes out*
 * King's Gaaame!
 * For the record, this troper gave Yosuke a piggy-back ride when (s)he was the King.

This troper, to friends: "Isn't that Chie's job?""

"Teddie: "....I gotta pee.""
 * This troper's personal favorite was during the class trip. Teddie pretends to be a project built by the protagonist and remains perfectly still until the teacher leaves. The party becomes worried because Teddie is acting a little too well. Teddie's response?

"Protagonist: Any of us you like, Yosuke?
 * And if you've gotten to level 2 or 3 with Kanji: "I'm gonna RENOVATE your ass!"
 * Teddie in the massage chair. That is all.
 * Kanji showing his geographical knowledge of the Qabbalah Casino during the school trip. Personally speaking, this troper is going to die laughing if the Casino becomes real in the eventual Persona 5.
 * This troper was cracking up at the scene where Kanji receives his glasses. You don't know the joke is coming until his character portrait pops up.
 * And then he throws the glasses away, rips the second pair out of Teddie's paws, puts them on... and it's another pair of gag glasses. I was just chuckling at first, but that was when I just collapsed in helpless laughter...
 * This editor prefers the first time that joke happened, partly because it just comes completely out of nowhere. Yukiko with ? Priceless!
 * The entirety of the Culture Festival. This troper made sure to pick all the "gung-ho" responses.

You can choose to have Yosuke sit on the girl's side for the mock group date cafe, he plays along a little too well.

Even funnier is that Rise walks in and then just backs away slowly and walks off really really fast."

"Emcee: "So, did you enter this contest yourself?"
 * When the guys are crossdressing against their will, hilarity ensues.

Main Char.: *selects "DAMN STRAIGHT!"*"

"Kanji: C'mon, make me a man!"
 * This troper's personal favorite was when Kanji was trying to convince Naoto to enter the beauty pageant. The tone of his voice when he said this was icing on the cake:

"Kanji: Sure enough. One strike."
 * Kou: He looooooooves them balls.
 * I can't believe nobody mentioned the Christmas event so far. Kanji's line in regards to the girls bringing a cake -- "Bring it on, got my insurance card and everything!" -- then his Big No when Nanako tries the cake, only to find out it's delicious.
 * Earlier than that, Yukiko, Chie and Rise get into a contest to make the best omelette, which prompts Yukiko to tell Rise "I'll crush you with one strike." Shortly after she's knocked unconscious by one bite of Rise's lethally spicy omelette.

"Teddie: O_O...Sensei...This little bear's getting too scared to go on..."
 * Teddie's reaction to Chie's omelette: "Wow, this tastes awful! :DDD"
 * This troper cracked up at Teddie getting freaked out by Shadow Kanji.

"There is a pack of grass inside the fridge. It seems to be Nanako's science project. ...Eat it?
 * Everytime something like this happens:

For some reason, there is an alarm clock inside, ticking away. Was Dojima running late this morning?

There is a cup of barley tea... Drink it? It was actually udon soup, what a terrible mistake!

You see a brown spherical object at the back of the fridge. You think it used to be a pear... Eat it?

You see a strange mushroom in the fridge. You think it may have grown out of something else in there... Eat it?

You see a bag of wasabi... lick it?"

"There is a single slice of bologna sitting on a paper plate... There is something eerie about it, you can't bring yourself to eat it."
 * The inevitable follow up to that: "Nanako, where is your science project, and don't give me that 'My dog ate it' excuse!"
 * My favorite of all of those is this one. Despite ALL the crazy crap you can eat from the fridge:

": Oh? Three Princes?
 * Apparently, it is possible to fuse Mara...through a Fusion Accident. Woe to anyone not expecting that to happen (even moreso to those who have never heard of Mara).
 * And he's in the Tower Arcanum. Think about that for a second.
 * At the beginning of the school year, Morooka King Moron introduces you to the class, telling them you're a total loser. There is an option to counter with "Who are you calling a loser?" Not only does that raise your Courage, but that puts you "on [his] shit-list, effective immediately."
 * You begin to suspect that your bowl is a portal to the Meat Dimension.
 * This exchange upon seeing Shadow :

Chie: Does that mean I'm a prince?

Teddie: Duh! The third one's gotta be me!

Yosuke: I seriously doubt that."

"Rise: Your skin is so soft!"
 * All the girls petting Naoto in the hot spring.

""The contents of this book are almost physically painful to read.""
 * Kanji's Social Link, max rank: Followed by an enthusiastic "HELL YEAH!"
 * Teddie attempting to hit on Yukiko... using her Shadow's words.
 * The Woolseyism they added as a Take That to Twilight, of all things, especially the MC's reaction to it.

"Yukiko: "I'm glad you're back to normal, though. Your fur's all fuzzy again!"
 * Even better, it raises your diligence stat.
 * Teddie abusing the hell out of his Bishie Sparkle just to get more free samples, especially the sample lady's reaction.
 * Kanji's Victory Pose. It doesn't mean the same thing in Japan, but at least in France, his Bicep Polishing Gesture is a vulgar gesture, which fits with his personality even more than the original meaning.
 * How about the simple fact that Kanji beat up an entire biker gang because they were keeping his mother up at night?
 * Choose to spend Christmas with the guys and you get to see Yosuke try to excuse his lack of a present. Kanji made his, Teddie got his fromm Junes, and the MC bought a cake.
 * While it both made me fall in love with Chie and cringe in sympathy for Yosuke... I cannot have been the only one to laugh my ass off when she whaled him in the face with the rope.
 * The gag glasses have got to be the funniest thing about P4. A pic on DA got right into this action, to hilarious effects.
 * This bit when

Teddie: "..." *is happy*

Kanji: "C-can I feel it...?"

Teddie: "No!""

"Yosuke: Is he cute...? What do you think, Kanji?
 * Shortly thereafter, when the team is faced with :

Kanji: Huh? What're you asking me for?

Yosuke: Well, I was just wondering if he was your type?

Kanji: Ohhh... I get it. What you're really asking is "Will you please beat the shit out of me, Kanji?""

"Teddie: Strip?! Aha! I know what that is! It's the thing zebras have, right?"
 * Considering the enemies you fought so far, and what kills the victims inside the TV, Adachi saying that he "can stop seeing suspects in every shadow" after  arrest is a really fun part of the game.
 * However, this becomes Harsher in Hindsight
 * When the party is spying on Kanji, Chie is down on all fours, with Yosuke standing directly behind her.
 * And then when Kanji catches you and everyone makes a break for it, Yosuke immediately runs head-first into a wall.
 * With Dojima being drunk and all, he blames Adachi for his problems and the MC for being near a crime scene.
 * Teddie, outside of Rise's dungeon.

The Animation
"Yu: "Oops, wrong guy.""
 * The show is directed by the same person who did Seto no Hanayome and Angel Beats and oh boy does it show!
 * In Episode 1, Chie frantically tells Yu to stop Yosuke from peeing right there in the room. Yu replies, "Huh? Why?" Chie's facial expression is priceless.
 * Episode 2, while Yosuke's Shadow rampaging trying to kill him, Yu punches Yosuke in the face, at the same time Izanagi punches the Shadow... except that wasn't the plan.

"Chie: He's getting me nikudon."
 * Alternatively, Yu meant to do that and was making a joke. Either way, it's pretty darn funny.
 * When Yu and Yosuke return from the Television World, a distraught and panicking Chie inverts Food As Bribe by saying she won't forgive them until she gets 10 orders of Beefsteak Yosuke quickly agrees and then says that Yu will help. Cue Chie...

"Yu: Something bit me.
 * After they escape from the Television World, Chie and Yosuke have a hug of victory, only for Chie to knee Yosuke in the stomach for "taking advantage of a situation."
 * In episode 3, Yu's reaction to seeing Shadow Yukiko on the Midnight Channel: "...I wish I'd taped it."
 * The sweatdrops on his face as he watches it totally make the scene.
 * Yu sticks his hand into the TV, only for Teddie to bite it.

Chie: Are you alright?!

Yu (complete deadpan): I think I'm going to cry.

Chie: No, you're not."

"Yosuke: D-did you just see that?!
 * Funnier yet when you consider the fact that the exact same thing happens in the game, and choosing that option makes Chie feel sorry for you instead.
 * When Yosuke is trying out swords in the shopping mall, and a Security guard comes to arrest them for 'suspicious behavior', Yosuke tries to talk his way out of it by saying he's just a "huge sword fanatic" and Yu just walks off saying "I'm not with him." It doesn't work.
 * And when Yosuke licks the sword like a complete psycho.
 * Episode 4 has a few good ones:
 * When Shadow Yukiko attacks with a fire barrage, Yosuke gets a case of hotfoot, and Teddie gets lit on fire.
 * After the fight ends, Teddie hands Yukiko the fake glasses. It's just as funny as in the game.
 * Episode 5, being a Breather Episode, gets in some good ones, including Yu's increased exasperation over his relationship with Ai Ebihara, and the inevitable chewing-out about said relationship from Morooka.
 * Catfight, during a basketball game, between Ai and Chie, with Yosuke thinking it's all going according to plan.
 * Ai's attempted suicide. No, really.
 * Yu's ring tone and the inner monologue that follows shortly after being direct send ups to Catherine. And its oddly appropriate.
 * What makes the ring tone funnier is that its the same remixed section of Sarasate's Zigeunerweisen used for the Game Over screen in Catherine.
 * Yu's expression in his Print Club Photos with Ai.
 * Hell, Yu's distress while playing Ai's rebound-boyfriend, or getting stuck in a love triangle between Ai/Kou/Chie, period.
 * Basically, the entirety of Episode 5. It is GLORIOUS.
 * Yu's sudden coughing fit when Kou reveals he likes Chie is hilarious.
 * Episode 6 pretty much makes Episode 5 tame by comparison!
 * Best. Ramen Delivery Service. Ever.
 * The funniest part is Yosuke Lampshading the ridiculousness of it all.
 * The deadpan nature of the delivery girl Aika is what makes the scene.
 * To sum it up: all that it lacked was... Yakety Sax.
 * And who could forget Kanji's Midnight Channel at the very end of the episode.
 * Yu's swimsuit... is very fashionable.
 * Episode 7 was amazing
 * Kicking off, this immediately after Kanji's scene on the midnight channel.

Yu: Yeah, want a copy?

Yosuke: HELL NO!"

"Yosuke: No! I could lose something I'm not ready to yet!"
 * After coming up upon the bathhouse, Stoic, Snarky Yu suddenly starts showing a rather large amount of hesitation, agreeing with Yosuke that maybe they should pull out and leave this one to the girls.
 * When being pulled into the bathhouse.

"Yosuke: Narukami, got a video camera handy?
 * When they first see Shadow Kanji, before he's even spoken a full paragraph, a very uncomfortable Yu and Yosuke immediately summon their persona as the battle music kicks in. Chie and Yukiko have to calm them down, which causes the music to phase out... only for another few words to cause Chie to summon her's, leaving Yukiko and Teddie to calm them down, also with the music phasing out again.
 * All the more due to their Scary Shiny Glasses during the entire scene.
 * Yukiko's denial that her shadow was anything like Kanji's resulting in her getting so pissed off she sets an entire group of shadows on fire, and coincidentally, Yosuke too, by way of Jiraiya getting caught in the crossfire. He immediately after gets frozen solid when Chie follows up by freezing them, again, catching Jiraiya in it.
 * When they finally make it to the top, Yu and Yosuke continue their hesitation citing that they'll probably see something they won't be able to forget. Chie pushes them through anyway, and they see Kanji pinning his shadow in a very suggestive position, causing the whole gang (except Teddie) to groan "I told ya so".
 * The room with Shadow Kanji gets covered with some sort of slime. Chie and Yukiko slip and begin wallering around in it trying to get back to their feet, prompting this response from the guys:

Yu: Damn. No!"

"Yosuke: I'm...dead..."
 * When the fight begins, Kanji's flunkies resist the initial attacks (as per the game, absorbing fire and nulling physical), the looks on their faces are priceless (especially Nice Guy, who nullifies Tomoe's physical attack and responds with a very deep, misplaced, and genuine English voice: "Hey! Come on, baby!")
 * Following this, one of the guys sneak up behind Yu and Yosuke and gropes them, they briefly enjoy it before it sends them both crashing to the floor.

"Kanji: Senpai! Didn't you accept me?.
 * Immediately after, the other one looks at Yukiko and calls her red tacky, which absolutely infuriates her. The other one opts to sneak up behind Chie and rests his arm on her shoulder, nodding understandingly and saying nothing, which gets Chie pissed off as well.
 * Both of those examples are probably imitating two game specific moves. One that causes poison in guys and another that causes rage in girls.
 * Episode 8 is no slouch on this either. Specially in regards to Kanji. POOR KANJI.
 * We find out that Yu actually did find the swimsuit Dojima gave him trendy, and Kanji concurs.
 * The Bizarre Transitions between scenes screamed out by an offscreen Teddie: PERSONA!
 * Seeing Chie and Yukiko knock the three dudes (a grinning Yosuke, a completely deadpan Narukami - in his... nice fuchsia swimsuit - and a nose bleeding Kanji) off a cliff and into the river was freaking HILARIOUS.
 * The... curry-looking mostrosity that the girls came up with. And anything relating to it.
 * Better, getting a few glimpses of what they actually put into it, having culinary knowledge of curry ingredients, it's... not a good outlook.
 * "Is our chastity in danger?"
 * Cue Muscle Blues playing in the background.

Yu: Not at night."

"Yu: She's well endowed."
 * After Kanji's incapacitated by Chie, he's... ahem... smooshed in-between a snoring Hanako Ohtani... and seems to like it.
 * Made even funnier by the end of the episode, when Hanako shows up seemingly to confess her feelings to Kanji... only to say that guys like him aren't her type and to forget about what happened last night. Kanji takes it well.
 * Episode 9 decides to crank back on the zaniness of the previous episodes, but still has a few shining examples in it's own rights.
 * "Nope."
 * Yosuke fanboying over Rise's physique by comparing her to Chie's. Yu says he thinks Chie's body is fine.
 * Chie and Yukiko pointing out that Yu, Yosuke and Kanji are looking very suspicious while trailing Rise. Yu asks Yosuke if he's the killer.
 * Kanji expressing his gratitude for a delicious meal, then immediately going after a suspect in a cacophonic rage.
 * Yu and Rise have a heartwarming bonding moment over their mutual love for Origami. Then Yu tells Rise her origami sucks. Or that it's terrible; it depends on the translation.
 * Yosuke pisses off Chie yet again, resulting in the first official Groin Attack of the anime, while she does it, she calls out "Jiraiya!", sending Yukiko into a laughing fit over the fact she said the name of the wrong persona. Yukiko then goes on to describe it in detail. Then she goes into how Chie is Moe... then she makes a one-off about Chie's Persona being a "Chie pet". She finally descends into a whole tangent on "Chie pets".
 * As they chase after the stalker, Chie launches off an All-Out Attack with Yosuke and Kanji to subdue the guy together.
 * Episode 10 has Kanji and the glasses. That is all.
 * There's also Yu rapidly pushing the record button when Rise's Shadow was giving strip tease on the Midnight Channel. When he tries to play it, it turns out he couldn't record it after all.
 * Episode 11 is also quite more serious and plot-driven, but there's some humor in it.
 * When the gang discuss about King Moron's dead in Aiya's restaurant, Aika serves them their special nikudon for free. However, 40 minutes later as the gang can't finish eating, she asks them to pay despite saying it's on the house.
 * Noteworthy that the very nikudon is (in)famous for the Meat Dimension comment mentioned above...
 * Before starting on the nikudon bowl, Yu mentally vocalizes the spiel for being unable to finish it when the game goes over what stats you need to do so, played to the "Social link rank up" music.
 * After hearing Yu making a comment about finishing the food, the gang goes on to talk about Yu's persistence as being a metaphor for not giving up their search for the killer, when the conversation ends, it turns out he was talking about the noodles after all, and completely ignored them.
 * There's a Running Gag of
 * Yu's deadpan reaction to Miss Kashiwagi when she enters the classroom.

"Nanako: "It's Magical Detective Loveline!
 * Episode 12:
 * The whole omelete incident... well, the second one. Not the first one... definitely not the first one.
 * To put it simply, the second one plays exactly how it happens in the game. The first one... Well... Let's just say that
 * Though the "I put Wasabi in one of them" joke was pretty funny.
 * Even so, one can't forget that one event when Teddie seduces a middle aged woman.
 * Teddie summoning his Persona... and is promptly ignored.
 * Teddie then proceeds to lose horribly against them. To elaborate: the dice type enemy he's fighting are unremarkable except for their special self-destruct, which means he was getting beaten by one of the most physically inferior shadow types.
 * Episode 13:
 * Because he was Out of Focus in this episode, no context is ever given for Yu's actions. This leads to two hilarious Big Lipped Alligator Moments:
 * Yu
 * Yu appearing in his Explosive Fishing uniform.
 * Everyone (especially Nanako) catching glimpses of Yu engaging in several Social Links without any context to explain his actions. Especially when he's caught spending time with two attractive older women on separate occasions.
 * Then when Rise wants to investigate Yu's behaviour, Yukiko and Chie are worried about getting seen by him. Teddie gives them all a disguise to wear...The gag glasses. And then the girls reactions when they see Yu hanging out with Hisano.
 * Nanako dressing up as a detective character from one of her cartoons in order to investigate Yu's behavior, only to have her toy spout out the wrong lines.

Toy: "Want me to fill you with holes?""

"Yu: "This is going on Facebook.""
 * Kanji's evil expression while eating a watermelon piece in the background.
 * Episode 14 narrates the same stuff that happened in the last one, but from Narukami's POV. Some of them are just as funny, specially when he's trying to handle a group of kids he's taking care of... and that turns out to be the reason why  in the first place.
 * The "Holy Crap!" expression on Narukami's face when the Guardian jumps out of the river is also a sight to behold. This probably is one of the few incidents where his face expression changed so dramatically.
 * Then Narukami goes out to fish after receiving his package from Tanaka's Amazing Commodities. His progress while fishing for the Guardian is then seen: He has spent the whole damn day at the riverbank. It's late at night and there's at least a dozen buckets behind him filled with either fish or trash. Then he pulls out his TV World glasses.
 * How about Reach Out to the Truth playing while he's fishing!?
 * Can't also forget the getting the Arcana Music/Social Link Rank Up playing while he's out to fish.
 * After the whole fishing ordeal, it cuts to Narukami at the festival with Yosuke, Kanji, and Teddie the next night. The first thing seen is Yu with a vacant gaze and bags under his eyes.
 * Teddie's face after eating too much shaved ice.
 * Yosuke narrating the whole episode in such a deadpan manner.
 * Episode 15:
 * The love hotel, the girls are all having fun with it and taking it in stride, the men not so much with Kanji around. While Kanji and Yosuke fight, Teddie comes up and knocks them onto the bed, Yu, being Yu, just watches calmly with a glass of water in hand, only breaking it to take a picture when everyone's in odd positions.

"Drunk!Yu: "It's because I'm the king.""
 * King's Game. This was arguably the funniest moment in the game, and the anime does it great justice by showing Yu getting drunk as well. Drunk!Yu goes into Memetic Sex God Mode with some dashes of Large Ham.
 * Drunk!Yu gets so hot that he completely unbuttons his shirt in front of everyone. Made even funnier by the fact that it's a Call Back to his first summoning of Izanagi.
 * Of course, Yu may not actually be drunk, given his rather strange sense of humor. His later comment at the Hagakure shows that he was just playing around.
 * Yu as king. Remember the four choices from the game? Yeah...it ignores the piggyback ride and goes through Chie's, Yukiko's, and Rise's in quick succession. The end result is this. If Yu is a Sex God then Yukiko and Rise are a pair of Lovable Sex Maniacs.
 * Of course, Yosuke has to bitch about it, prompting:

"Teddie: But you were all done."
 * Chie being reluctant to sit on Yu's lap. Looks suspiciously like the famous scene in Kuso Miso Technique...
 * Teddie eating at the Ramen shop in his costume.
 * And "being gentlebear and helping"... er, eating Yukiko's meal.

"Teddie: Guys...I think I ate too much, I can't move.
 * And then this happens:

Yukiko: Let's just leave him.


 * Everyone gathers around Teddie and clasps their hands in prayer*

Yosuke: Farewell my friend, we shall leave you here with the memories of our youth."

"Rise [in the middle of their Girly Run]: Noooooooo! I'd rather dieeeeeee!"
 * Episode 16:
 * Yosuke, Yukiko and Chie not letting Teddie mooch their food while they casually discuss the case at Junes is hilarious.
 * The girls freaking out when Yosuke gets hit with Shadow Naoto's Galgalim Eyes attack and turns into an old man.
 * To elaborate: In-game, the skill causes the "Enervation" status effect, which halved the target's stats. Cut audio found in the game files reveal that there were supposed to be "old person" versions of the battle comments while affected by Enervation, meaning that the effect ages the target. The anime picks this little tidbit up from the cutting room floor and restores it.
 * There's still some indication of this in the game - there's a move called 'Old One' that inflicts Enervation on all targets. Also, the Japanese name for 'Enervation' (the spell) is 'Aging'.
 * Episode 17:
 * Margaret telling the sad tale of Jack Frost then stumbling over his name at the end, causing the One Woman Wail to stop instantly, clear her throat, fail a second time, looking quite embarrassed and say "I am not tongue tied".
 * Then Fridge Logic hits in as you realize that story was probably Margaret's way of hitting on Yu but suggesting that she was "Jack Frost" and how having the protagonist there was what made her realize how much she longed for a friend. The blush that accompanies the "I am not tongue tied" line now has a whole new meaning.
 * Yu gets hit by Galgalim Eyes as well. Chie and Yukiko to freak out while Rise thinks the new older Yu is extremely cool.
 * You think Yu and Yosuke were funny, how about when Teddie gets hit by the spell?
 * The conversations the three of them have are also pretty funny, as they even act like stereotypical old guys (and in Japanese, they use proper grammar).
 * Let's not forget the utter horror of the girls when Shadow Naoto chases after them to use Galgalim Eyes.

""What happens in the Velvet Room nobody knows, but the master has a very long nose…""
 * When Teddie use Energy Shower and restore himself along with Yu and Yosuke, he gets a cutscene. Of his older version.
 * The first conversation Teddie has with Naoto: "Wow, you're such a sweetie pie! May I flirt with you?" Oh Teddie, never change.
 * And of course Naoto's deadpan reply: "I won't cooperate with you on that one."
 * Episode 19 is a nice change of pace from the Crowning Moment of Heartwarming fest that was Episode 18. A whole episode of funny!
 * During the opening, if you look carefully you can see the joke glasses fall when everyone else throws theirs off.
 * Yu giving a 30-minute long rant on why he thinks the girls should enter the pageant.
 * After hearing Yosuke entered the girls into the pageant, Chie gives him her signature Galactic Punt. Twice.
 * When Yosuke says that one of the guys needs to play female for the group date, Yu's already sitting at the girls' side before he can even ask for volunteers.
 * Yu's repeated references to the King's Game. He really wants to play it again.
 * He even drew numbers on the chopsticks for the group Date cafe. Speaking of which THE GROUP DATE CAFE.
 * After their classmate Nagase says he hates girls Yosuke immedietly asks Kanji "Whatcha blushing for?" Kanji proceeds to beat Yosuke up (he actually wasn't blushing though, interestingly enough.)
 * The anime rendition of the Cafe scene. Oh my, Yosuke, stop fighting it.
 * Igor and Margeret were "out for errand", leaving the Velvet Room with only a note congratulating Yu on getting the two Dojimas' Social Links.
 * Ebi then asks about Yu's lovelife. Hilarity Ensues.
 * The infamous crossdressing pageant.
 * Yu goes with the "tomboy sadistic gang leader" approach. The girls seemed to be oddly attracted.
 * Kanji's random Burning up moment when Naoto's flinching from going out in a swimsuit.
 * Yosuke, in complete deadpan, telling Kanji to clean his Nosebleed.
 * Ayane plays 'Never More' on the trombone (badly).
 * Look carefully into the credits. It was "Moegod" Meguro himself!
 * Episode 20 is going to focus on the group's trip to the Amagi Inn. This should be interesting.
 * Margaret singing "the song of long nose." Right next to Igor.
 * Margaret singing "the song of long nose." Right next to Igor.

"Yu: Persona!"
 * Cue Igor scowling at Margaret.
 * Although this could count as Crossing The Line Twice, because Igor's voice actor has passed away and therefore Igor cannot speak other than pre-recorded voices used in the game.
 * Doubly hilarious if you know that this is canon.
 * Naoto wearing the guys' blue robes instead of the red robes the girls are wearing.
 * Nanako went to the school festival too. All the food, the dance, the ghost house, and the fortune-telling! There was a beautiful big sister who said onii-chan is a gi…gi…gigolo!
 * Kuma asking if the Bath's are mixed sex, and his annoyed dismissiveness when Kanji says they aren't.
 * To clear their heads after being booted out of the hot springs, Yosuke and Kanji engage in some table tennis, complete with Battle Yells. Later, when the girls continue to accuse the guys, Nanako asks whether Yu and Teddie are perverts with the most innocent face ever. Completely aghast by her question, the two resort to table tennis, too.
 * Watching Yu, of all people, go Blue With Shock is hilarious. Better yet, his battle cry during table tennis?

"Naoto: PEEPING ON WOMEN IS A CRIME!"
 * Boys sneaking into girl's room, only to find out that the room belongs not to girls, but Ohtani Hanako and Noriko-sensei. Cue Edge of Madness playing in the background...
 * When the girls are in the hot springs and Teddie jumps in. -cue screaming and bath buckets being thrown at the guys- Yosuke and Kanji ask Yu what to do and he says to muster their courage hold their ground. Girls are silent for like 3 seconds and then start throwing more buckets. Yosuke asks what does courage have to do with this, just when a bucket breaks as it hits Yu in the face. Yu agrees. A hasty retreat is ordered.
 * Even funnier considering that Naoto is with the girls, and she's wholeheartily throwing buckets with the best of them.


 * The scene ends with Yukiko realising that the open air bath is open to men and women, she got the time wrong and the girls are the ones that shouldn't have been there. ... Whoopsie?
 * And take a good look at Yousuke's face after all of this. His black eyes make him look like a panda
 * Episode 23, while being quite gloomy in comparison to the other episodes, has one small scene. Yu finally gets to the bottom of the ridiculous bowl in Aiya's (with the Social Link ending theme playing). She stoically gives him a thumb up for achieving such a feat.
