Ryuji looks way too pretty and Akechi seems to have lost his idol-like charm. The rest shown seem to be fine.

Not exactly sure how they spelled Ann's name wrong on her sign, though.

Anne is her Japanese name. The American version changed a few of the character's names.

I dont think they changed the names so much as they pronounced them differently.

No, they're pronounced the same in both versions. The American version just changed the spelling of Anne's name for some reason (maybe because they think "Anne" might be pronounced as "An-ne")

BTW, the list of sources links to the Persona 4 page when it should be Persona 5.
