Trivia
- On the first day of school, Morooka mentions he'll put the protagonist's name in his rotten orange book. This is a something that Mr. Kinpachi says to his students on the Japanese TV show Mr. Kinpachi in Class 3B. Mr. Kinpachi was never aired in the west, and this was localized as shit list instead in the English version of Persona 4.[1][2] Morooka's given name also comes from Kinpachi's. Aside from using the same first character, they also share numbering, with the pachi in Kinachi being 8, and the shi in Kinshiro being 4.
- In the original draft, Morooka was not originally intended to die. When revising the script to add in the December culprit and make other changes, Katsura Hashino also added in Morooka's death to try and surprise the players.[3]
