Persona 4 Arena: Official Design Works is available at Amazon ( US | CA | UK | DE | FR | IT | ES | JP | CN) and Book Depository The book's a review copy from Udon Entertainment. While it has slightly less pages that P4's artbook, I feel that they packed in more art here. They talk about the production of the game, the characters and story.įor fans of the game or perhaps Shigenori Soejima character art, this is a great book to get.

That's the part of the book where you don't get full satisfaction.Ĭreators interviews are with the developers Kazuhisa Wada and Yuichiro Tanaka from Index Corporation, and Takumi Iguchiya from Arc System Works. Unfortunately, there are only 7 pages and the locations are printed quite small, sometimes squeezing as much as 10 onto a page. The lighting and atmosphere are spot on, beautiful.
Next we have the beautiful background art and stage designs. The character designs form the bulk of the book. There are plenty to look at, and drawings also come with creator comments. The character artworks features the high-res in-game screenshots of their poses, front side back profiles, line art sketches of battle poses and animation for both the characters and their personas. They are more refined, animation-like, expressive and stylish.

It starts off with gorgeous full-page splash art, followed by character profiles plus design and sketches, background art and stage designs, game quotes, staff interviews, and lastly some anime storyboards.Ĭharacter designs from Shigenori Soejima look even better than in the earlier artbooks, especially from P3. The presentation style is similar to the Personal 3 and Persona 4 artbooks. It's the usual large size artbooks that Udon have been putting out. Ive uploaded clean raws of Persona 4 Arena Ultimaxs manga from where it left off in English. The original Japanese edition ペルソナ4 ジ・アルティメット イン マヨナカアリーナ 公式設定資料集 was released in September 2012. Some goodies from the P4U x P4U2 combined art book.
