I disagree. Junpei was uncooperative, rebellious and was more silly than Yosuke is. They also have a number of differences that made me prefer Yosuke much more than I did Junpei.
Well yeah, Yosuke is like a responsible, and competent Junpei. But they are both the bro, who really likes chicks, is your second party member, who actually where's the school uniform and has a love interest that hates him (kind of). Also both are the lancer to the hero.
@Animasta: That really doesn't bother me that much. It makes him a more believable teenager. If he wasn't homophobic Yosuke is kind of perfect other than he slacks off during lectures.
A lot of teenagers are.@FluxWaveZ said:

And again, I could make those same minor comparisons with Fuuka and Yukiko which, in the end, are meaningless.

in japan? who knows, but all the others didn't have a problem with it.
and when I was in HS being homophobic wasn't the norm so
@Nottle: and sure he may be less realistic but junpei still a better bro than yosuke is

Really? How is he a better bro when, for more than half of the game, he's angry at the main protagonist for being the leader while Yosuke immediately accepts Yu as the leader and claims that he's "okay playing second banana"?

realism? by the end of the game Junpei has grown up and realized that he was being petty and shit, while Yosuke just stays like that forever. Oh and I guess he lets go of Saki or something.
also for more than half the game is stretching it reaaaaally hard. I don't remember him mentioning it after the train operation.

No he doesn't
The Protagonist from P3. The story hook could be that Aigis's subconcious brings him in to the TV world (INCEPTION).

I'm sure there are many 16 and 17 year olds that are more mature than that, and saying Yosuke being homophobic, makes him "realistic" is perhaps the wrong word for me to have used. That is just something that a teenager would do because they are a confused teenager, it's like blaming Junpei for being jealous of the MC, he got over it, his character developed. Also i wasn't trying to make a point about Yosuke, being better than Junpei, or anything. Both are pretty interesting characters.
@FluxWaveZ: I'm know you could, i just don't really see it. I bet more people would be able to see the similarities between Yosuke and Junpei, than Fuuka and Yukiko. In ways Yukiko reminds me more of Mitsuru than Fuuka. But your right, this is kind of pointless, no matter how simular they are they are still different in key ways.
Yukari as I'd be more interested in what her play style would be like. Junpei kinda comes off as clumsy in fights and doesn't seem as interesting to me as Yukari could be. I really doubt they'd do anything other than a zoning character but they'd have to make her unique and not too similar to Yukiko. As for the characters personalities, I'm not all that interested in either of them.
Also, bows are so hot right now.
Yukari would be my first choice. I really liked her though P3 The Journey. Of course, in The Answer she was a sour bitch. I like Junpei, too but personality-wise, there isn't a huge difference between him and Yusuke. They are both of the Magician arcana in fact. I didn't find Yukari to be too similar to Chie or Yukiko, though so I think her addition would have more impact.
My first choices would be Koromaru and maybe Ken. I'd love to see Ken and Nanako as teammates in some future incarnation of the franchise.

I picked Junpei. No real reason, I bet if we get one of those we get them tboth.
Perhaps, but I don't think we'll get either of them.
I bet you are right. Would be nice though.
I'd play as Junpei more than Yukari, but it would be interesting to see both of their side of things as members of the Shadow Workers and how they would've stumbled into the TV world (I DO remember Junpei's shiloette in one of the Story Mode screenshots, but I haven't seen if Yukari's actually there in the pic.
Deffo Takeba, just because I want to see an awesome bow moveset that would have to be somehow differentiated from Yukiko's fans.
I'd love to see Junpei in the game.
But, if there is one DLC character I want to see, it's Dojima using Nanako for his Persona. That would be great.
I'm not even done with P3 yet and I have kinda stopped caring about both of them at this point. But I'm gonna go with Junpei since he seems like he would be fun to play as.
Junpei has exactly the same weapon as Yu, whereas Yukari's is completely different from the other characters. Though narratively speaking I think Junpei makes more sense with his whole wanting to be a hero thing.
Neither. I like Junpei a lot but I'd rather see Eikichi or some other Persona 2 character (cuz i just love them so much oh my gosh).
I really don't want to see Yukari in the game though. I never liked her as a character and she'd probably just be the same thing as Yukiko in fights and stuff. W-well, I mean, probably not, but that's not going to stop me from trying to justify my decision...!
I was pretty cool with both of them but I never really got to bro out with Junpei as much as the player gets to interact with Yukari. So I'd say Yukari just because I'm much more familiar with her.
