>best story
P2:EP. Nice culmination. I prefer when persona has a bittersweet ending, feels like an appropriate trade off for the lighter tone than mainline.

>Best cast
in terms of total cast EP. nice mix of old and new characters. for just the main party i have a soft spot for 1 because unlike the others theirs feels more like a wide community of people rather than a small dependant friend group. P4 is up there but i think rise and naoto are duds.

>Best MC
Tatsuya. vague enough to imprint onto but specific enough to make him interesting.

>Best Visuals
P4 vanilla. Love the countryside setting, stands out amongst all the cities.

>Best music
P1 original soundtrack.

>Best gameplay
p5 is the most refined of the formula but 1 has a satisfying progression.
