Megami Ibunroku Persona [Comic Dub]
Anthony Andres for Takahisa Kandori
Kandori is the primary villain of the story. At the start of the story, he's a calm and collected, traditionally evil businessman. He developed a god complex, using his money and resources to rise to the top and attempt to cause the apocalypse within Mikage-Cho, the town our cast lives in. He has an heir of charisma to him, almost never startled and seeming too powerful to be stopped. As the story progresses, and Kandori becomes closer to achieving his ultimate goal, he becomes apathetic. He starts succumbing to nihilism, seeing his life now devoid of meaning that he completed his goal and becoming depressingly hollow.
I've listed him as "Middle Age" despite only being around 28 by the events of the story, since he looks a fair bit older and is meant to sound older as well, having a very mature and guarding aura akin to a father figure. His voice range would be mid-to-low.
My, what a rare pleasure. What business does the scion of the Nanjo family have with us?
Kandori sees Nanjo among the party as they start pursuing him. Already being familiar with each other due to both he and Nanjo's family being a party of the cooperate world, he taunts him with confidence as if he can't be touched. He does so casually, as if he was approached by him in a business convention and is trying to be polite.
...So it truly is pointless. I thought if you managed to make it this far, you children would have the answers I look for. But it seems that was too much to expect...
Kandori sits in peace, having given up on his reason not seeing any point to it anymore. After giving a speech about his reasoning and current lack of purpose in life, he sees the party give their "expected answers" and becomes disappointed. He sighs in bitter sadness, not really feeling depressed, but moreso empty and accepting of such an outcome for what he's done.
Hah... You'd tell a god to condone nonsense? That, too, is a grave sin... A god commands and condemns. It does not lend an ear to the pleas of vermin.
Kandori starts to relish in the pleasures of his newfound powers. After hearing the party talk back at him the way they did, he becomes more heated and into his god part, irritated, but more absorbed in his own power than anything.
