The latest episode of the Persona Stalker Club V talk show has been released, featuring Persona series composer Shoji Meguro.
This follows the fifth episode of Persona Stalker Club V last month, which featured Katsura Hashino and Shigenori Soejima discussing the development of Persona 5.
The episode opens on a highlight of the “Persona 5 X Pasela Resorts” cafe collaboration which began on October 14th and ended on November 23. The hosts taste items from the menu and comment on them.
The episode continues with the normal “fan questions and answers” segment.
The special guest Shoji Meguro makes an appearance for the subsequent segment, where he discusses the creation and process of the music in Persona 5. He talks about inspirations behind the game’s acid jazz genre such as Jamiroquai, which Meguro mentioned in a previous interview.
The popular “misheard lyrics” segment returns. The songs riffed on this time are:
- “Pursuing My True Self” from Persona 4.
- “Heartbeat, Heartbreak” from Persona 4.
- “Backside Of The TV (Lotus Juice Remix)” from Persona 4: Dancing All Night.
