The handling of emotion in Winter of Rebirth is masterful, especially as much of the movie is bleak (other than the hilarious segment with Elizabeth), and it strongly resonated with me. A-1 Pictures have proven themselves capable in the past with fluid action – particularly their use of presenting 2D imagery as if it were 3D – and they’ve put that experience to good use here. Winter of Rebirth features the biggest battles of all four movies including a showdown with Persona-user team Strega, and a battle against a grand foe with the power to destroy all life - if you don’t like CGI then you might not enjoy how Nyx is presented, but I think it was a great use of CGI which blended in well with the brilliant 2D artwork. There’s more than a little to get teary eyed at, and it’s a movie that gave me goosebumps - I’m so happy that these movies turned out as well as they did, and I’m very happy with how Persona 3 was ultimately adapted. Adapting such a colossal game couldn’t have been easy, but A-1 Pictures have done magnificently. Many questions are answered as S.E.E.S fight their biggest battle so far against an incredibly threatening foe, and it’s one where there’s a good chance they won’t make it back. The set was sold exclusively on Jika Net Tanaka (Octo/ Shipping on December).Following on from where the third movie left off, we find out more about Makoto’s earlier life as well as more about the mysterious Aigis and Ryoji.
