social life part was executed perfectly, every character is lovable, depends on your view and the bond that the group creates overall is heartwarming, Akechi sucks as a character and there are few bad things like Okumura's palace but overall this feels amazing and palaces are so better executed than in past games (well thank god the generational gap is abyssal)

soundtrack is incredible but i feel like persona 4's was more coherent to what was going but if i have to make 2 complains about this game that keep this game away from perfection i can say that:

1: in a game so next gen in comparison to the old ones i expected that private bonds with ur friends or ur lover would have more impact on the story of the group itself, for example if i romance someone i want it to be evident in the story and in the dialogues during the main campaign, same goes if you make a perfect bond with a friend, not only romance.
2: story is really a letdown since persona 4's immersive and incredibly original lore.
so yeah these 2 points alone with Okumura's palace and Akechi being a boring villain keep this away from completing the fifth star. still a gem that must be played
