Persona 3 Portable is an enhanced port of Persona 3 for PSP. New features include an additional female protagonist as well as certain gameplay adjustments introduced in Persona 4.
I never wrote that. And just because I am don't make much difference.

I find it weirder that you can S-link/date Ken, making the main character a creepy pedophile. He's 10 years old. The main character is 17. "
It's a sister brother relationship.
And in any case Shotacon is widespead just like lolicon in Japan, why would they exclude Ken?

" Dude, we need to accept that anmie fans- and anime in general is really fuckin' weird. I was checkin' out the Pokemon page on Animevice (Pokemon is the only anime I've ever gotten into, because I was a child and it was popular).

Misty is still considered to be like 10 years old. I don't understand why those picture submissions were approved. "
Anime Vice is for 'anime' or Japanese culture, and lolicon is fine there, so Misty is an object of affection and added. Also, Misty is no longer ten, she was ten when it started, shouldn't she be closer to 15-16 now? "
I'm pretty sure it's not acceptable there anymore. "
The bill never passed and that wasn't the Japanese that started that mess. Either way Japan as a whole won't allow censorship of art (it will be a cold day in hell if they did) "
man, its fuckin japan, its like getting offended when you see two dogs fucking, If you don't want to be morally judged by yourself than don't do it, Japan is pretty freaky though if you thought this was creepy than you need to go deeper into the internet. Once you see things, you will never unsee them.

O god....nice its pink assless chaps....*google it...I dare you GB people*
I know this isn't Japan. I'm saying lolicon and Shotacon are very popular over there and when they do a game/ and or anime it's likely to have these factors. I was just speaking of how the law did not pass over there, so Loli and Shota will continue was they have been with no censorship. XP

I went over to anime vice and some how got to the "Naughty" Gallery....lol Im not really surprised that place is starting to die.
Way to be fair by including a piece of artwork not present in the game, or made by the developers. "
Yeah I did do a google image search for an in-game shot but couldn't find one - it was that or nothing. I wasn.t trying to hate on anime or anything and I am not a prude - I just came to P3P after finishing P4 and playing about 10 hours of FES and was surprised at them going for cheap anime cliches - I guess if that is what the fans want though ... and it is good to hear they include some humiliating male costumes for balance as well. Can you imagine Chie wearing Battle Panties though? She would kick you in the nuts for just suggesting it :D "
If you actually read the description for the equipment in P4, there are more than a few that are "humiliating." Also given you finished P4, why are you surprised at more anime cliches in 3? The entire Cultural Festival scene for example was a giant anime cliche.
" @TooWalrus: Well, of course something is gonna be weird if you focus on the weird things people do with it. Let me put it this way. There is porn of L4D, but I don't think that makes the game, or video games fans suddenly weird because of it. "
I would consider Video Game fans weird if L4D porn was the main focus of the L4D video game wiki page. "
In that case, you shouldn't have a problem given nude images of Misty isn't the main focus of the wiki page either.

@alternate: Every episode of burn notice is women walking around in bikini's..even if some of them really really shouldn't be. I don't see how this is any different. It's just pixels...
It's rather pathatic if you ask me. Try justifying to your mom why little girls need to dress up like whores with their tits hanging out and why that is appealing. I'm glad that the west (being a bit harsh here, not everything from Japan is loli kingdom) developed from the stone age view of women in games found in the 90's, the industry needed the good boost in reputation. But I guess every media needs its filth.
Nothing beats Peace Walker to me. Irrelevant zooming in during cutscenes, using x-ray vision to look at a sixteen year old's panties. Well done, Kojima. You've finally achieved something. Peace = perversion, apparently.
" @alternate: Every episode of burn notice is women walking around in bikini's..even if some of them really really shouldn't be. I don't see how this is any different. It's just pixels... "
This pretty much. The outfit is really not all that sexualized(unlike the picture in the OP).

Yeah it's kinda plain actually, it's nothing to get your panties in a twist over. Only when it get's drawn by over sexual otaku then things get sketchy. Not that I'm not in the group too *guilty as charged*
Looks like someone just realized that anime is super creepy. Don't worry, the Otaku Squad will be around soon to slowly lull you back into complacency.

What? The High Cut Armor was in Persona 3 FES, so if you wanted to get outraged about this, go back to 2008, when it first happened. Aside from that, there are a lot of audiences that Atlus had to cater for, and for some people having the female characters dressed as scantily as possible is what they want to do. It basically falls back on "If you don't like it, don't use it."
Japanese artists generally lean on making the styles of their women being very sexual looking, but also trying to do it in a very dominant and powerful way. It's just that that is received well and as the norm in Japan.

Really? Considering every game I've seen the west make is usually still objectifying a woman as a sexual object. it isn't a west East thing, it's a world wide thing. WoW is a West thing, look at the armor, Mass effect, nice zooms on what's her face's butt.. not to mention all the sexual mini games of god of war or shows like American Pie (key word AMERICAN) and their series of movies you can't just label Japan as a target.
It's not pathetic, we are hormonally charged creatures, we objectify each other. Thus procreation.
They were in the PS2 version as well. But it didnt effect the appearance of the character, only the weapons you gave them changed looks. All that happened was if you gave that armor to a girl they would react funny but thank you.

I thought it was pretty great when i gave it to Yukari, she gave this response that made me laugh really hard. I can't remember what she said exactly but she called me a perv.
Some of us try and make a point not to play games or support media that tries to appeal to males of any age by making underage girls sexually appealing. Ron Burgundy would call that, "staying classy". Steer clear of games that make underage girls sexually appealing. It's the classy un-pedophile side of life.

It's a way to hem yourself in a corner with the amount of games that DO, do so. It might be safe or classy as you say, but it's a way to isolate yourself. Not dissing your choices or anything like that, if that's what you wanna do, go for it. But for me I'll keep my mind open to possibilities.

I'd call that easy mode. Avoid any game that tries to appeal to the teenage fantasy of shooting off guns and seeing great big tits if you really want to "stay classy."

Oh, now that IS classy. And a way to only play like... only Nintendo titles dealing with a character with the letter M. UNLESS it's so classy that even that violance is way to much. It does referance drugs, soooo many mushrooms XD

Well, my point was really that the idea of staying classy just by avoiding "pedophile material" really isn't staying classy at all, especially when if the game said Yukari was 18 years old and made no changes to her character model, none of us would be objecting to any body to age discrepancy. And actually "staying classy" via avoiding things entirely would mean you'd be avoiding quite alot of things. Just not thinking pedo thoughts is a better route imo, but sadly not everyone goes that route.

Sorry, joking was in poor taste but I follow.
Everyone strangely takes the pedo rout, they can't just leave it be and just take it for what it is. I didn't even double take the armor until this thread, i tought it was neat looking, i didn't think it was overly sexual, but maybe i'm desensitized.

But, the character model.....it really is not sexualized in any way:/ The creepy otaku drawing in the OP was, for sure. But in-game?

Oh, no, don't get me wrong. I don't think it sexualizes her either. (Honestly the high-cut armor looks more hilarious than anything else ingame, and the dialogue when you ask them to wear it is pretty funny too.) I was just saying the fact that someone's concious can feel better when the game adds two to someone's age without actually changing how she looks is pretty dumb.

No, i think the model is fine. I hadn't had any issues regarding the looks of the characters, I like the change. It only becomes sexualized when you take it that way or draw it that way. XP
