Frankly, I don't care that much in and of itself. Like in a vacuum the option for a gay romance doesn't upset me. However, what does upset me will be the further Westernification of the series from that point on. If Atlas could control themselves it would be okay, but they can't. Once you add one, then it will be more, then it'll involve transgendered party members and more and more until it loses all Japanese culture and we get Persona 8 in LA.
