Unnecessary jab at Japan aside, Shuffle! *was* created 13 years ago. Authors without that kind of "nostalgia" would probably handle it differently now.

Actually, it would be interesting to see a Persona character deconstruct that archetype and the Social Link leading to them seeking professional help.

(Also, for the longest time Japanese society had a stigma with psychiatric help because taking your child to a therapist translates into a public admission that you failed as a parent. That's been changing with the new generation, but it was still present at the time Shuffle! was made.)
