There's two anime adaptation from the game with the same name
Persona 4 The Animation and Persona 4 The Golden Animation
What is the difference between these two anime?
I know there's new character in Golden that is Marie...other than the character what is the difference?
Is the story just same but with new characters?
Or the story is difference? If so starting from what episode it start to difference?
Which is more worth my time in your opinion? Why?
Thanks in advance for answering :)

Golden is more like an OVA that showcases parts that weren't in the original game for the PS2, but were present in the VITA port of the game.

P4 and P4 Golden are the same game, but for different platforms. Golden has an extra character who brings an extra dungeon and an extra Social Link, plus Adachi's Social Link. The Animation follows the game to a tee. The Golden Animation only deals with the extra character and her social link and doesn't really follow the main storyline at all.

The golden animation sucks and made Marie a mary sue.
The animation is good and adapted the original game very well.

You forgot how it blatantly lies that it's a recap of the original anime with the added tidbits from Golden.

The first Adachi episode and the first half of the second one were good though

The original is an okay adaptation, but I still highly recommend playing the game first. Preferably Golden.

But while Golden the game is a full on remake of the original game with a bunch of added features and story arcs, Golden the Animation is basically just the stuff that's exclusive to Golden. In other words it makes absolutely no sense at all on its own.

But whether you want to watch the anime or play the game, DO NOT watch Golden The Animation to start off.

the Golden ones is like the remake of original version featuring the new character Marie.. If you want to watch it, i suggest you to watch the original version first since persona 4 golden should be watched only if you've finished the original ones since it skip a lot of materials..
