Persona 4 Animation

I've got the Japanese credits pulled up, and am trying to enter the rest of the episode's cast, but I've run into problems on 2 of them.

One is Igor, who I did enter in, but he's got extra info, and I wasn't sure how to enter it. After his name in the credits is "(特別出演)", which appears to translate as "Special Performance." His Japanese wikipedia page lists it as "Library Performance." Given that he passed away in January, I'm assuming that this means that they're using his dialogue from the game as archival clips, and wasn't sure if it should be entered as a precision or not.

The second is for Saki Konishi, whom is credited as "なかせひな". ANN's encyclopedia has a Hina Nakase entered, but her name is written "中瀬ひな", so I'm not entirely sure if they're the same person. Saki's seiyuu's Japanese Wikipedia Page does have something regarding ANN's Hina's name, but I can't read it. If someone could clarify if they're the same person or not, I can get the info added (and if they're not the same person, help with creating the new person?).

Yeah, it is definitely the same Hina Nakase. Wikipedia appears to note she used to use to be credited as the name we have her as currently, but that she goes by the all-hiragana form name now. Looking at her blog, she notes her Persona 4 role and also has a link to the Lump of Sugar website. She has a role in all of their games, and the Tayutama credit listed now is one she reprised from one of those games. So, it seems there is little doubt they're the same person.

As far as Tanonaka goes, I would just use the precision listed in the credits ("special performance"). I assume the same as you that it probably means they used archival clips.

Thanks, I'll get those fixed, then. And how do we put the change to the all-hiragana name?

I've hidden the old name, added her new name, and since Japanese Wikipedia gives a date for her name change, I added that information as Chronology.

Cool.

I also added explanation of the "special performance" to the trivia page.
