    Can you confirm if the tutorial level has been changed?
    I played the imported North American copy like 6 months ago but thought that the tutorial level was different when I started my own Black Phantom copy yesterday.

    @kalmis: What do you think is different? I don't have the EU version, but I really doubt it changes with each class, as they are all just loosely-guided molds that can become whatever you wish.

    I might be wrong, but I though that the level was more darker when I played with the Monk class first time around on NA release. Now started with Royal on EU release and it was more light and the tutorial end boss single-hit killed me. I know you are not supposed to be able to beat him but thought that I got at least one hit first time.

    Well there's your answer right there. Don't know about the "light/dark" differences. I'd have to say that is just a misconception on your part :P 
    ...But different attacks from Vanguard do different amounts of damage. Each class starts with different vitality levels, which raise or lower their max health. Also, the amount of damage you absorb is modified by how much armor you have. So it's perfectly possible for  him to kill you in one hit. It's happened to me on more than one occasion.
     
    A note, though. You can beat him. I recommend you coming back to the tutorial when you've developed your skills. You get a nice little treat for killing him.

    I have both versions of the game.  There is literally no difference between the two except for the fact that the EU release uses the original translations and not the Atlus NA version.  Which also means it's translations aren't quite as good but it isn't that big a deal.
