This is not a review of the full game, I just want to talk about the DLC. Thanks to the work of Eiowlta, DarTisD, Sayucchi, Polyglot Sammy, Gabriulio and Apollo, the DLC content for Innocent Sin is finally available in English.

This DLC consists of small stories or "movies" that you can play at the Climax Theater. There are 9 in total, but the most important ones, at least for me, are the ones called Dark Shadow 1, 2 and 3. These were written by Tadashi Satomi, the original writer for Persona 1 and the Persona 2 duology. These stories were meant to connect the events of Persona 1 with Persona 2, and setting a little bit of lore for the Tatsuya scenario in the psp version of Eternal Punishment.

We get to see how the events of Persona 1 affected the lives of the main characters in that game, and how both routes, the SEBEC one and the Snow Queen, actually happen at the same time, which I think is pretty cool. I'm a little sad that Mark and Yuka did not appeared, but at least they were mentioned.

Another interesting bit is that the main characters of Persona 1, still know how to unlock the power of Persona in other people, which is a nice call back. Finally we learn that Philemon has the power to send people back in time.

That's about it, very short but with a lot of cool details. I'm so glad that we are finally able to play this. The translations community is awesome.
