Common misconception. College in Japan is pretty similar to college in the US unless you get into a particularly prestigious school.

Joker already looks like a College student anyway.

I like that it's okay Takemi performs illegal drug experiments on Joker but it's creepy when she dates him.

We've been hitting on on older women since at least P3 anyway. Even discounting our teacher in that game having a crush on us, Elizabeth is what, infinity-years-old?

The experiments fall under "Anime goofiness." The dating falls under "Too real, bad touch."

Also, if the anime/Persona version of high school is an option then I'd jump at the chance to experience that.

Two entirely different kinds of creepy.

Yeah, certainly not new to P5... and Ken being a romance option was, oof. Yeah.

It should when they look like little kids.

Nah. Even if they look and act younger 1k year olds are still adults.

Sad to say, but seeing as even 70+ year olds act like children these days, i have to agree with chariot.

70+ year olds don't look like children, though.

Really 500 years old in Japanese media tends to be a way to handwave fetishizing a child character as acceptable.

Just gonna swinging here and going to say this:

Hearing this song that I linked. I'll admit that this song actually matches nicely with Persona series and theme as a whole. Same with Shin Megami Tensei

Anyways, any good game to start. Also,

"Let's go and pass each other greeting
"Would you like some love?"
At the street corner of truth, tonight"

If it were real people he would be.

I give a pass on fictional characters because they don’t exist in the real world.

To be honest, that's not even the worst thing he's said. There was that one interview where he said that he couldn't personally picture a man and a woman being just friends, which looks bad when you consider how the social link/dating system worked in Persona 3. I don't know whether he still believes that or not, but at least it's not how the games work anymore.

Also that every game so far has felt the need to have a bickering male and female who tend to be the closest characters to your protagonist.
