First, sorry if this topic doesn't belong here, feel free to move it if that's the case.
So I've been meaning to get these artbooks but I've wondered which versions are better, the japanese or the english ones?
I don't speak japanese so that's a plus for the english artbook, however if the japanese one has more drawings and is generally better, I may get it which is precisely why I could use your help.
Thanks for any help provided.

I'm fairly sure the Japanese ones are more detailed and have more art; the American ones are more of "Best of" artbooks.

This. The Persona 3 one, specifically, takes its art from this book; (http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-lt-77-m-49-en-15-Persona+3-70-1xlg.html) not too sure about Persona 4, although likely a similar scenario.

Japanese ones are a whole lot better, but the Persona 4 US one is pretty damn good.

Thanks a lot guys, I guess I'll get the japanese ones first and maybe someday the english ones aswell since I'm pretty interested in reading some of the texts.

Just to let you know, you can't buy the English art books since they came packed with first editions of the games.

There's also the Persona 3 and 4 fan books too, which as basically info (in Japanese) about the characters and world.
