Naoto directly says that a woman can never become a man. Tamer things were changed in the P4 remake. Naoto's story is definitely going to get butchered. No idea why you're pretending this game will be exempt from pozzing.

And it would be justified. You just can't make a character like Naoto in 2025. It would trivialize and undermine the suffering and efforts that transpeople have gone through in the last decade and a half.

Atlus Japan isn't going to change things because, unlike the west, the Japanese fanbase is pretty built in and will absolutely flip their shit at major changes to the characters they like. Any changes will be to lean in to what the fanbase already likes about her, which will be flanderization but they already did that with the entire cast in all the spinoffs and anime. Atlus USA could change things in the localization, but Atlus Japan will be on their ass if those changes result in low sales and a major backlash. P3R's localization changes were pretty standard and it sold well, so that's the template they'll use. At most they'll cast a tranny to voice her.
In 2008 we're gonna have a video game character turn to face the audience, look the viewer dead in the eye, and say in perfect english "I am not transgender" and we'll still have crossdressing fuccbois trying to insist there's intricate Western social context for why they are.

The Japanese don't know that because they're eternally 10 years behind. They're knee deep in this shit now and the only western feedback they get is filtered through their tranny-led localization departments and fucking resetera of all places.
She is 200% a woman and trannies are just going to have to accept that.
Also Kanji isn't gay and isn't romantically involved with Naoto by the end of the series. If anything he and Rise would make more sense.

They are doubling and tripling down on this bullshit, and you can expect it to get even worse once the pendulum swings back to the left
