Persona 2/YMMV


 * And the Fandom Rejoiced: Remember the complaining over Persona 1 remake's soundtrack? Atlus heard your complaints. Persona 2's remake lets you pick either the new soundtrack or the PS1 soundtrack.
 * It's finally being released in North America. SO MUCH REJOICING.
 * Eternal Punishment is coming to the PSP as well, even though I Knew It!, YAY!
 * Anticlimax Boss: If you prepare for the bosses, they'll become this trope. It's also possible to.
 * Author's Saving Throw: The North American version of Eternal Punishment is a peculiar example, as it reverted the original Persona's characters back to their canonical Japanese surnames. For sake of continuity, however, the characters' first names were left Anglicized. The localization team tried to compensate for this Continuity Snarl by retconning some of the bigger translation goofs; For example, the revelation that "Guido Sardenia" is actually an alias for Guido Kandori, the previous game's antagonist. He's still named Guido, due to Nate and co. retaining their western names, so Eternal Punishment breaks even and just calls him Guido Candor.
 * Awesome Ego: For most of Innocent Sin, Eikichi Mishina would happily talk about how awesome he is, and most of the fans of the game would agree.
 * Complete Monster:
 * Okamura is one of the most unlikable characters in the Persona series, even though she isn't completely unsympathetic due to her unrequited love for Jun's father, her actions in the series are just unforgivable
 * Genius Bonus: There's several small bits of trivia, ranging from Aztec mythology to the significance of the names Maya and Maia.
 * The publishing company Maya works at, Kismet, is a synonym for "destiny".
 * And, of course, all the Personae (except Tatsunoshin Suou, Maihime Amano, Junnosuke Kuroda and Alfred/Yamoaka from Eternal Punishment) are from real mythologies.
 * Ho Yay: Jun Kurosu, who definitely sees Tatsuya Suou as more than a friend.
 * Parts of the game and interviews would imply Suou and Kurosu are the intended Innocent Sin pairing. Specifically scenario designer Satomi Tadashi and character designer Kaneko Kazuma.
 * Les Yay: Yukino and Anna in Innocent Sin..
 * Moral Event Horizon:
 * Tear Jerker: A flashback shows Maya's father leaving her at the shrine. After telling her that dreams can come true if she wishes at the shrine, she gives him a good-luck charm Mr. Bunbun. He tries to cheer her up saying "Mr. Bunbun will laugh at you if you don't stop crying." He then leaves, with the adult Maya, who is looking on pleading with him not to go. The entire team ends up in tears and Tasuya can allow a Cry Into Chest option for Maya. After calming down, she then tells the team a poem about death and being forgotten. The entire team then tries to cheer her up, saying that they will never forget her again. Cue the ending...
 * The Woobie: Jun... and pretty much everyone else, really.
