You may recall my reporting in mid-November about Persona 4 Visualive, a rather… different game port where instead of going from a game to an anime or manga, the series will be adapted to a stage performance. This performance being produced by Marvelous AQL and ATLUS is due to be run between the 15th March and 20th March 2012 at the Sunshine Theater in Ikebukuro. The shows will differ slightly every show by alternating the name of the hero (For a total of 11 shows). The following are comparisons for the real life actors and their real-life “game” character counterparts, as well as images and details of other actors and actresses taking part. Surprisingly, they are cutting out some of the main playable characters from the game and instead inserting minor social link characters such as Daisuke and Ichijo.
Toru Baba as Hero
Takahisa Maeyama as Yosuke Hanamura
Minami Tsukui as Chie Satonaka
Risa Yoshiki as Yukiko Amagi
Oumi Youichirou as Kanji Tatsumi
Saotome Jouji as Daisuke Nagase
Motohiro Ota as Kou Ichijo
Kenji Taniguchi as Ryotaro Dojima
Masami Ito as Tohru Adachi
