** The new opening for the PS Vita Port. Apparently, just saying you don't like it will have others calling you a Non-Fan.

* [[It's Popular, Now It Sucks]]: Now that Atlus has [[Cash Cow Franchise|built up a franchise around ''Persona 4'']], this type of [[Hatedom]] has come out the woodworks. Taken [[Up to Eleven]] with the 2013 ''Persona'' event, which announced a grand total of four ''Persona'' games, three of them ''Persona 4'' related. This event pretty much shattered the ''Shin Megami Tensei'' fandom due to Atlus' focus on ''Persona 4''; for comparison, ''three'' non spin-off games were released since 2000 while ''Persona'' had ''five'', counting remakes. For all intents and purposes, ''Persona 4'' has become Atlus' equivalent of ''[[Final Fantasy VII]]''.

* [[It Was His Sled]]: Naoto's gender. It was actually suppose to be a surprise, but between [[Fan-Preferred Couple|all the fanart pairing herself with the Protagonist]] and American VA's poor job of disguising her gender it couldn't be helped. However, it is ''much'' easier in Japan to have a female voice to sound like a male's. [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|Shinji Ikari]] is very convincingly voiced by a female in the Japanese dub, for instance. In English, though, it's far less common, unless the character is a very young child.
* [[It Was His Sled]]: Naoto's gender. It was actually suppose to be a surprise, but between [[Fan-Preferred Couple|all the fanart pairing herself with the Protagonist or Kanji]] and her American VA's poor job of disguising her gender it couldn't be helped. The secret was much better concealed in Japan, giving [[Romi Park]]'s long history of voicing young male characters. The spinoffs not concealing this at all don't help matters either, so at this juncture, it's basically not even worth tagging as a spoiler.
* [[Jerkass]]: Chie in the anime due to Flanderization. They basically took away her good qualities and made her into a blackmailing short tempered [[Jerkass]] who abuses Yosuke over every little thing, yet happily accepts Yu's [[Covert Pervert]] moments.

* [[Jerkass Woobie]]: Sometimes Yosuke's status as [[Butt Monkey]] goes too far, especially when it comes to Saki...''but then'' he also does things like [[Moral Dissonance|mock Kanji's sexuality]] and [[What the Hell, Hero?|sign the girls up for a Beauty Pagaent against their will.]] Naturally, this makes him something of a [[Base Breaker]].
