Like seriously the guy totally forgot the girl dancing behind him and make his moves if he try to impress someone . lol.
Great find , love to see they put some effort and make different the team-ups.
Sadly is only a little part of the song they dance with a partner.

Come on, I know this is common in Japan but were you really expecting Atlus to do creepy stuff with Nanako?
Why does the simple fact that she's wearing a swimsuit have to be weird? I don't see anything out of the ordinary in those designs, why does fanservice have to be implied in everything?
I guess you missed it, but I was the one defending the fact that Nanako's character trailer and her inclusion in P4D wasn't designed for creepy individuals several pages back, so it's strange that you're aiming this at me. What's weird is the fact that it's a swimsuit for her to dance in, and that goes for the rest of the girls. But note the inclusion of "kinda," because, in the end, it's just a silly inclusion. You were the one implying fanservice from my comment, when that wasn't my implication.

Oh, I missed that, sorry.
I wasn't talking about you in particular though, just comments I've seen of "OMG a swimsuit for Nanako!" I mean, so fucking what?
I get the feeling that the people posting these comments are the creeps to begin with.

I do find it slightly amusing that they gave her a swimsuit, but there's really nothing sexualised about that design. I don't have any problems with it.

Well, the other characters have it so I guess it's consistent. Alternatively they'd have to come up with something else to replace it or drop it entirely.
Again, it's a non-issue anyway.

What's wrong with them, aside from maybe the youngest's eyes?

1 and 4's expressions. Though that's probably the idea.
CrimsonFist

Something about the proportions of the one I embedded bothers me. I might just be imagining it.
There's nothing off about their expressions. They look smug/glamorous.
Can't say I see it. If it's anything, it's just the usual exaggerated flourish to make the art more dynamic.

Do you think her fingers are wrong? That's the only thing that seems off about her. I'm no artist though.
Definitely.
I also think the first and last look just stupid rather than smug but eh, whatever

I never really understood why she has that expression or what emotions she is trying to express. Some has suggested its a sign of constipation or excitement when the MC is in the room.
The biggest problem is Kanamin and Ryotaro Dojima together. They clearly belong to 2 different games. Kanamin's eyes are like the size of Dojima's entire freaking face. When Kanamin closes her eyes, her eyes are as wide as Dojima's mouth.
Cheaped out on character portraits? >_>

Ill never use it, but thats a good choice for a swimsuit for nanako
I'm at a loss for words.
You see, seven years have passed since P4 came out. It's no wonder that portraits drawn in 2015 look different from those made in 2008.

Famitsu leaks seem pretty vague. Pretty much just says what the preview does. Apparently there's some armour for Rise and Naoto, and more women's uniforms DLC next week.
Guess we'll have to wait for scans.

and hope they contain the Featherman costumes

Countdown just showed up on the P3 movie site too.

You'd almost think it'd be smart to redraw portraits from 2008 or something.

No, no! We need to keep the sanctity of the series!

GamingBird, you get hung up on the weirdest stuff.
I mean, you say this, but he's right. The new portraits look a lot worse than the P4 ones. It's obvious that some stylistic changes would take place, but it's not obvious that the quality would drop.
High cut armour. Not sure what uniforms it could be?

I absolutely agree that this is what they should've done in the first place.
The portraits for Kanami Kitchen look a lot like the ones Soejima did for P3P's NPCs. Maybe that's why I'm not bothered by the lack of quality.
To be entirely honest I'm not entirely convinced that Soejima is even responsible for the portraits. I remember someone at Atlus saying how they added a new artist for P4D. There's also the assistant character designer for PQ who's last name is apparently Kobayashi. He did the majority of the new Shadow designs for PQ and his sketches look a lot like Soejima's. I could definitely see that he's the one behind the new portraits for P4D. At least, that would be an explanation for the quality drop.

But wasnt Soejima specifically credited as "Original character designer" or something to that extent for P4D?
It was found out later that they were specifically talking about music artists.

Whether there would be P4D info in the next Famitsu
At least that's what they called him when they first announced the game in 2013. That term, however, is pretty vague if you ask me. It's usually thrown around in anime related things whenever a show is adapted from preexisting material. Sometimes the original character design doesn't quite work on a TV screen (the colours may be off, the clothing might be to complex, etc.) and someone else has to adapt the original design. That person will usually be the one credited as "Character Designer" while the original artist gets billed as "Original Character Designer".
I'm not quite sure how the term is meant to be used here. I originally assumed that they hired someone else to do the costume design for the Investigation Team, but I honestly have no idea. Maybe they'll do an interview about this in a future Persona Magazine.
Ah, thanks for the information. I was confused about this.

did you think there wouldnt be any pure fanservice outfits?

Pretty sure high cut armour is already confirmed, they just haven't shown it off yet.
Not confirmed... before this Famitsu article. If that's what it is, I mean. Only previous hint was this:

We already have the swimsuits....for a different kind of fanservice I would rather that they go with the Neo Featherman outfits...also, I still need confirmation that Naoto gets the
Girl Yaso High
girly outfits

Im sure it comes as no surprise that I wish for those as well
Naoto definitely has the worst armor of the bunch. P3 armor was better than P4's anyway.
As far as uniforms go, the only things I can think of are Yosuke's Junes uniform, and Rise's from the tofu shop. They have already been shown though, so maybe variants for other characters? I think we have seen every Yaso uniform so far.

I expect every costume that was in Golden to be in at this point.
Wut. P3P's portraits were excellent. These look nothing like them.

I was expecting fanservice outfits, it's just I'm not a fan of those. I probably wouldn't be complaining as I am if the outfits were dialed back a bit.
