I'm not talking about the gameplay but a lot of the style seems taken from TWEWY. Here is what I noticed:

  • Both take place in the general around around Shibuya
  • Both feature a "modern" tokyo time
  • Both have a quite main character who wears headphones
  • Both are 2D and conversations happen in the same way

Again, not saying they play the samebut the setting, time period, and characters seem very similar. What do you guys think?

Wow you're really trying too hard. So you're saying a game can't have the same setting and the character can't all wear headphones? In the Shin Megami games most of the main characters are silent.

I haven't played either game (Can't wait to play both though) but those points seem pretty generic. You may be right though.

Both take place in the general around around Shibuya - SMT 3 Nocturne says hello Both feature a "modern" tokyo time - SMT 3 Nocturne says hello (heck, im pretty sure most of the main series SMT is in Tokyo) Both have a quite main character who wears headphones - SMT Persona 3 says hello Both are 2D and conversations happen in the same way - havent played it so i dont know how it goes, but im pretty sure there was a game that was like TWEWY-like conversations

The only thing I noticed is the location but I wouldn't say they ripped TWEWY.

Now the question is which one would be the best out of those 2?

No, though you could say that TWEWY was inspired by the SMT Persona games.
