Persona (video game)/Characters: Difference between revisions

Like Yukino, Hidehiko's features weren't changed much for the North American release. His kanji puns were altered, fitted with easy-to-digest local jokes. His name was also changed to Brad.

* [[Badass]]: Or least wants to be seen as such. That said, he does [[Took a Level in Badass|get a Persona]], so he effectively is one in a gameplay sense.

* [[The Big Guy]]

* [[Even Evil Has Standards|Even Troublemakers Has Standards]]: Brown is an unabashed troublemaker, but in the Snow Queen Quest, when he saw the [[Ironic Hell]] inflicted to Toro and Devil Boy, he's utterly disgusted and claims he drew the line on pranks, one of the few moments that he's really serious in his words, not bragging.

** Well, he is of the [[Tarot Motifs|Justice Arcana]]. Also note that the Tower's guardian Nemesis, is frequently assoicated with this arcana, [[Persona 3|as anyone playing two games later will remember]].

* [[Fiery Redhead]]

* [[Hurricane of Puns]]: Brown loves these.

* [[Inferiority Superiority Complex]]: A huge case of this.

In the NA version, like Kei, Eriko was given blond hair and fairer skin to match the localization. Her name is also changed into Ellen.

* [[Badass]]

** [[Lady of War]]

* [[Ditzy Genius]]: Intelligent, skilled with a rapier and speaks fluent English. However, she's also a huge fan of the occult and can be a little too confident in her skills.

* [[I Just Want to Be Normal]]: The expectations set on Eriko really get on her nerves.

* [[The Ojou]]: We're never told on how wealthy her family is, but if she could afford overseas study, that must've spoke a lot for her status.

** For ''[[Persona 2]]'', interviews with the character designer and story director have revealed that she's at least upper-middle class. They've given more details on her family life, too.

* [[Royal Rapier]]

** [[The Cuckoolander Was Right]]: She gives what is probably the only hint on how to get the best ending.

* [[Girlish Pigtails]]

* [[Sexophone]]: During her 'Tempt' command. Sadly removed in the PSP version

* [[Shout-Out]]: Her outfit is an optical illusion referencing the girls' uniforms from ''[[Shin Megami Tensei: if...]]''.

* [[Those Two Guys]]: With Hidehiko Uesugi.

* [[Valley Girl]]: Even more exaggerated in the PSP remake, with lines such as "Like" in between her sentences.

* [[Whip It Good]]

He is [[Back from the Dead|later revived]] by the NWO in ''Persona 2: Eternal Punishment'', serving as the primary focus antagonist if the player takes the Nanjo route. Also, ''Eternal Punishment'' goes the extra mile to make up for the [[Macekre]] of the first game by making his NA name in the first game an alias (which, given all the crap he gets involved in, is a fairly logical thing to have).

* [[Badass]]

** [[Badass Abnormal]]: {{spoiler|He becomes a GOD, for crying out loud... but this does wind up biting him on the ass.}}

* [[Demonic Possession]]: His transformation into God Kandori. {{spoiler|Which is made full use of in the next game. Ah Nyarlathotep.}}

* [[Disc One Final Boss]]

* [[Evil Counterpart]]: To Nanjo.

* [[Evil Laugh]]

* [[Fiction 500]]: According the Nanjou and Eriko, Kandori is wealthy enough to get instant access to black tie dinner events, and SEBEC is a Fortune 500 company.

* [[Heel Realization]]

* [[Lonely at the Top]]

* [[One-Winged Angel]] {{spoiler|Not of his own will.}}

* [[Redemption Equals Death]] {{spoiler|As the sequel reveals, it didn't stick.}}

* [[Weaksauce Weakness]]: Both of his forms are weak to guns.

* [[Cool Teacher]]

* [[Hot Teacher]]

* [[Dark and Troubled Past]]

* [[Demonic Possession]]

* [[The Mentor]]: To Yukino.

* [[Butt Monkey]]

* [[Demonic Possession]]

* [[I Am Big Boned]]

* [[Ironic Hell]]: In the Snow Queen quest, Toro is [[Chained to a Bed]] as milk is continually poured down his mouth.
