This is jumping the queue bc some really cool people reblogged my last post of Corey and they escaped containment.

Updated sidestep design perpetual WIP

Sidestep days vs retribution. They're slowly reacquiring their self expression. Next book will probably be the full return of the scene/punk look

Bonus Corey sans most of their clothing to show off their tattoos under the cut. CW for healed SH scars

y'all. i just thought of ethan who is still in love w julia even after the shitshow that speared them apart and when he sees her in GP and works with her in Fallout he can't help but feel jealous of her new husband and also feels so guilty for ruining her life and wants what they had back but knows that no matter what it won't ever work and it's because of him

BUT ALSO. ethan developing feelings for Benji and denying them to himself because he has internalized bi/homophobia and is ashamed for thinking about Benji in that way because he Shouldn't and Benji has a gf (Benji made up the gf because he didn't wanna seem like the single idiot w feelings 4 his coworker [ethan])

and this all came to me when I was thinking about the line "you'd have to stop the world just to stop the feeling" and...yeah. just. The emotional torture for our little pookie

hey has atlus ever commented about naoto being transgender?

I assume you're asking this because of the remark I made in the tags about the magazine?

To be honest, I don't see this topic as being as straightforward as many in the western fandom want people to believe. Like I have absolutely read garbage where people go, "You have poor media literacy if you think Naoto is trans". I used to see this crap every other day on Reddit until I quit browsing the Persona subs regularly.

To answer your question: To my knowledge, no, Atlus has never >said< anything about this. But here is what they >did< in their own game and the lore / setting book:

We all know about "show, not tell". Naoto says her struggle is about "being a woman in a male dominated field", but this feels largely like "tell, not show" since the story suggests Naoto's struggle is actually with age both internally and externally -- to the extent that gender feels very irrelevant. Naoto is never shown struggling as a detective due to gender and the only time it comes up really is in the dungeon dialogue, Naoto never brings up mom or reflects on how mom might have had the same issues and how mom might have dealt with them (Naoto's mom was also a detective), Naoto seemingly continues presenting as a male detective outside of school even after people at school find out (c'mon, Adachi somehow never says anything before or after the reveal, or even in Ultimax), the writing never takes any opportunities to compare/contrast Naoto with other characters regarding gender and work (e.g. Naoto wants to be in a male-dominated profession versus Yukiko who was born into a role passed from mom to daughter but starts off the story on the fence about it), and the other detective characters in the story only ever comment on Naoto's age / youth. When gender finally does come up in Naoto's Social Link, choosing "Your gender doesn't matter" is the option that earns the most brownie points (20 points, per the P4G guide) even though it locks the player out from the romance scenes. The "I'm glad you're a girl" option is what gets you Naoto's romance which I feel like is a roundabout way of Atlus admitting the audience they care about are straight men who would get insecure about someone they're dating being anything other than "girl".

And lastly, when you get into the meta stuff, In Naoto's Persona Club P4 profile, she fills out [sex/gender] as "no comment". And the same book writes that Naoto's dungeon comes from Naoto's own desire to "become an adult man" (an important distinction as for the other dungeons the book specifies when the public of Inaba played a role in the design and whatnot of the dungeon and what it represents).

Some of this feels intentional to me, yet some of it also feels like incompetence on Atlus's part because of how Naoto's character was made...

Naoto's character was originally a cisgender boy and Teddie was originally a girl under the mascot outfit. Then Naoto became a girl, and as a result, they swapped Teddie to a guy (so it's 3 girl pt members, 3 boy pt members). I find it plausible that this whole arc about Naoto-F's age was originally something that belonged to Naoto-M, and they just copy/pasted it and added on the sentence, "Oh and also I'm a girl in a dude dominated field!!!" and just, uh, did not expand on that at all.
