First P4AU English footage via IGN: http://ca.ign.com/articles/2014/06/04/layers-of-awesome-in-persona-4-arena-ultimax?watch Confirms 6 new characters, so Adachi was most likely the last addition. Edit: Wait a sec, Adachi was #7. Never mind that, then.

I posted that thinking it was an indication that there would be one last character, but I forgot about the random icon at the center of the screen below Narukami, that might be replaced by Adachi's slot. If it's just static screens again on all sides, they're probably just aesthetic in nature. Would need to see an unobstructed version of the select screen to be sure.

Character select screen in that aforementioned Kurushii scan here. Check the right side of it.

Not from anything that's been shown so far, so I'm guessing he does not have a Shadow. He's human, but the way he fought was like a hybrid, so I think it makes sense.

I haven't seen the image of the roster myself, but Adachi isn't accounted for in Tokkan's description either, so I don't think that's really an indication.

...Right. Not too sure I should buy that but, whatever, I'm not incensed by it.

A few pics of Adachi.

According to here, Atlus' Yu Namba will be showing off P4AU during next week's Ultrachen stream show on Monday, at around 8:30 PM PST.

Unlikely, given how Ken/Koromaru's trailer came out a week after the Famitsu reveal.

He got off easy. Could be way worse than it is.

The standard edition of P4U2 costs approximately 7,538 JPY in Japan. The release dates being further apart might do it, though. Plus, Index aren't involved this time, so who knows if it was mostly on them.

It's likely that it might be related to what Atlus USA is going to show. They might need to talk about the content that will come with pre-orders and such, and Adachi would fit.

No. Only thing that hints at the box art is this.

They might be taking DLC too far if there's going to be DLC BGM, DLC glasses (again), DLC navigators and a DLC epilogue story (though that's a pre-order bonus, so it doesn't count as much). I guess all of those are aesthetic in nature, though, so I suppose it's alright. If DLC characters are added into the mix, then it starts to look bad.

Famitsu DX Pack announced for 7,890 JPY. Will include selectable BGM "A New World Fool", A3 sized posters and a clear file set. PNP version of Famitsu DX Pack will retail for 8,699 JPY and include the contents of the PNP edition.

That doesn't make sense. Especially if we consider how the character videos and pages have been handled for Persona Q.

GGs. Have to play more with Shadow Labrys as opposed to trying to improve with others. Sorry I couldn't accept the invite, Rath. Was in another lobby.

I'm expecting something like that, but it's still good to know it isn't 2015. They might want to space it out compared to P4AU's release anyways (if that's possible), since a real close release probably wouldn't be too beneficial on their end, either.

So awesome. Was afraid it would be a 2015 release.

Yeah, I think there's a good chance it means there's at least one more character left.

In Rise's character trailer, she is shown with both 4 and 5 Persona cards during different moments. Might be related to her abilities.

Famitsu article.

FYI, the blogs that have divulged this information are known and reputable websites concerning Famitsu flying gets. Esuteru, for example, was one of the websites that revealed that Rise was to be a playable character (as well as other details) detailed in the upcoming issue of Famitsu last month,
