Headscratchers / Persona 4: Dancing All Night

• Tomoe and Sumomo's stage names in the Japanese version are "Tomochin" and "Momochin". Then the English version just renames them to "Tomomin" and "Sumomin". This is a change that frankly does not make any sense. Why change the names so drastically for the English localization anyway?
  • Did you miss the part where "Risechi" became "Risette" in the original game's localization?
• Kanami constantly complains about how her outfit does not fit her and how it's tight in the chest. Who the hell thought it was a good idea to give her an outfit that is two sizes shorter than what actually fits her?
  • Maybe it's a way to pressure her to lose weight. "Oh, no, Kanami, the outfit's a totally normal size. If it's too small for you, it must be a problem on your end" or something.
• Why does Nanako in her normal outfit show faint signs of breast development in this game? She is at most, like what, 8? And probably is still 7 almost 8, she is too young of an age to show any remote signs of puberty even by the point of this game. Unless this is just Atlus showing ways of being weird and scummy, there is no reason Nanako should be anywhere near having hit puberty at the age she is during this game.
  • The Doylist answer is probably that they didn't want to alter her character rig too much for individual costumes, so she was given a model based on her idol outfit which is certainly padded In-Universe to match Kanami.
• Who acts as Kanami's legal guardian? Why does she live all by herself? Where are her parents? She's a minor: she needs someone to serve as a legal guardian.
  • Ms. Ochimizu, probably.
