Nomenclature

The Japanese name of the manga is directly linked to the Japanese titles of the games in the Persona 2 duology, Persona 2: Innocent Sin being called Persona 2: Tsumi and Persona 2: Eternal Punishment being called Persona 2: Batsu. Tsumi to Batsu is the Japanese name of a Russian novel called Crime and Punishment. The French and Korean translations kept the reference by using their local name of the novel.
