  • 19:5719:57, 25 April 2025 diff hist +9,353 N Holidays Created page with "As might be expected, Japan has a very different set of Holidays from Western countries, and even those they share might be practiced completely differently! We're noting general information about them here because Holidays are often great hooks. Persona games often feature these holidays, some of them being free days, others noted, and some being decidedly romantic, where you might spend some time with a special someone. ==January== '''Beginning of January -''' Star..."
  • 19:4619:46, 25 April 2025 diff hist +4,184 N School Life Created page with "Japanese schools are very rigorous. It consists of three terms, the first running from April to July. The Second Runs from September to December. And the third runs from January to late March. School runs Monday through Friday from 8:45 AM to 3:15 PM and often includes a half-day on Saturday. However, students don't typically leave for home when classes are done. Starting from middle school, students are fully expected to participate in sports clubs, cultural clubs,..."
  • 19:4019:40, 25 April 2025 diff hist +4,540 N Religion Created page with "The notion of religious worship is much different in Japan as compared to the west. The majority of Japanese citizens engage in some form of Shinto or Buddhist (or both) rituals throughout their lives, but they're more spiritual practices than dogmatic organized worship that have become a part of secular tradition. Many Japanese citizens cannot recite a single sutra, and only do so at funerals, but because it's a family tradition still participate in these practices...."
  • 19:2419:24, 25 April 2025 diff hist +3,637 N LGBTQIA+ Issues Created page with "While the Japanese Constitution promises equal rights to all citizens and prohibits discrimination on all grounds, in practice, those who identify as LGBTQIA+ receive far more limited protection under the law due to a lack of anti-discrimination laws. Many laws that are intended to prevent domestic abuse simply do not apply to individuals who are not considered 'straight' or 'gender-normative'. This especially applies in the Rural areas, which can be quite traditional..."

  • 19:1119:11, 25 April 2025 diff hist +5,406 N Law and Order Created page with "==Police and Law Enforcement== While Japan itself is a constitutional democracy, in regards to how one is treated by law enforcement, Japan can be a little more authoritarian in a citizen's day-to-day life than some players may be used to. On the one hand, Japanese police tend to be more prosocial and have more public trust. Part of this is because of 'kōban,' or police boxes--essentially mini-police stations staffed by a small number of community police officers. Bec..."
  • 18:3618:36, 25 April 2025 diff hist +3,230 N Foreigners Created page with "==Gaikokujin== The post-WWII terms forced both foreigners and foreign investment into Japan. While there was a degree of Westernization previously during the Meiji Restoration, it came too with the forced end of isolation. Japan to this day faces a thread of resentment towards foreign countries deciding its destiny; however, that is not to say it's entirely unwelcome. Japanese business fully appreciates foreign investment opportunities and their entry in other mark..."

  • 18:2618:26, 25 April 2025 diff hist +1,962 N Family Registry Created page with "The Family Registry or 'Koseki' system is a traditional system of tracking Japanese ancestry that has existed in some form since the 6th century AD, but its modern form was adopted in 1947. Registration is generally considered proof of Japanese nationality by its citizens, but reporting is voluntary for the system, and there have been some cases where failure to report has disenfranchised people born in Japan from citizenship. The law requires notification of births,..." Tag: Visual edit: Switched

  • 17:5117:51, 25 April 2025 diff hist +3,898 N Cultural Attitudes Created page with "==Responsibility and Collectivism== Japan has a culture of responsibility. Children are taught as young as two or three how to go on errands for their parents and how to appropriately find help if they need it. Because of this responsibility culture, many children in Japan are fully latchkey kids, expected to follow the rules set down, and take care of themselves while their parents work until they can get home. However, that has its dark side. Japan is a collectivi..."
  • 17:2917:29, 25 April 2025 diff hist +3,460 N Native Cultures Created page with "Native Cultures in Japan have faced numerous challenges over the centuries as a result of Japanese policy that forced annexation and assimilation within mainland Japanese culture, while simultaneously subjecting them to discrimination. While the staff on the Velvet Room do not claim to be experts on this subject of natives or racism within Japan, we believe that it's important to acknowledge these cultures, and the challenges those of their ancestry face in a series lik..."
  • 17:1917:19, 25 April 2025 diff hist +4,613 N Honorifics Created page with "In the localization for Persona games, honorifics are often used in English for flavor. As it's a quirk of localization the majority of us enjoy emulating from anime media, we're including a guide here. They are wholly optional, and you can use them as much or as little as you want, including not at all. '''Note:''' The author here is not a native Japanese speaker, nor qualified to teach Japanese. Several members of the Velvet Room MUSH who have greater expertise in t..."

Thus, when we play JRPGs from the Persona series, we have to understand that despite it being localized, we are not the game's target demographic. This section is meant to offer more information about the history, lifestyle, and culture of Japan for us to consider while we're writing about the day-to-day lives of our characters. When we're tryin..." Tag: Visual edit: Switched

The Persona archetype's name comes from this 'role-playing' aspect. Jung found an archetype that 'played roles' and named it the Persona. Masks were always used as costumes. I guess that one use has remained throughout the ages." -Nurse Edogawa In Jungian psychology, a 'Persona' is the mask used for social interaction that one wears through..."
