Haha, yeah, I LOVE Yosuke's cutin for that attack, too. So pritty! *_* Then again, I like all the AOA cutins I've seen thus far. (I think the one I like "least" is probably Chie's, and that's only because I... kinda find her a little more plain in design in comparison to some of the others. I do like that green and yellow jacket of hers, though. :D)
I tried looking up Jiraiya on Wikipedia to see if it had any info that might point as to why they focused on the legend rather than Yosuke's id in his Shadow-self's design, but no dice. All it says is what I already knew from glossing over the chara intro section of the player's guide (and amusingly enough, what I had learned from watching Naruto, hahaha). Boo. :P
LOL, yeah, IIRC you're a fan of Jungian psychology? You must be loving the overtness of it, then! XD
Ah, I was wrong - I checked IMDB.com, and Kon's voiced by Quinton Flynn (Isn't he the guy who played Axel in KH2? I still need to play that game someday...). The way Wittenburg voices Teddie is kinda reminiscent of Flynn's plushie!Kon, though, which is why I got confused.
As for Naoto's summoning in the intro demo reminding me of Rukia, well, I can't check that, as there's no P4 entry there yet (Boo! :( ). I DID find out that the woman who plays Rukia was also the voice of Yukari in P3 though, so either Atlus liked her enough to decide to have her play another role for them, or I'm completely off... which wouldn't be surprising, as I don't have a very good ear for voice acting save for the Really Obvious People. :P (Nakata-san, Midorikawa-san, Vic Mignona, for example.)
As for Bleach and Johnny Yong Bosch, I think he plays a pretty decent Ichigo (Though I've never gotten a really good listen to his original seiyuu, so I can't compare them.), including when he does Hollow!Ichigo - that guy's only shown up for maybe 4 or 5 eps thus far, but still, that is one pretty crazy, bloodthirsty motherfucker, heh.
