Some more news:
From this: http://shoryuken.com/2013/08/15/new...r-august-16-18/
quote:
Junpei and Yukari
The two new characters both have styles and systems yet to be seen in P4A. Yukari specializes with her bow and wind-type “Garu” skills and excels at speed. Her bow attacks are extremely fast and difficult to avoid on reaction. When one of her arrows hits “Maha Garu”, which remains on screen for a fixed period of time, it becomes a guided missile, giving her a tricky factor. Her bow is great at long range, but she can also rush down in close range with jump attacks and Persona attacks.
Junpei Iori is a power-type character with a variety of attacks with his bat. The bat has long reach, so works best with just a bit of distance between Junpei and the opponent. His unique system is tied into the rules of baseball. When Junpei connects with a bat attack, a runner advances, possibly scoring a run, which gives a buff to certain moves after scoring 10 runs. The improvements to his attacks are substantial, so finding mix-ups and combos to efficiently advance runners is a part of the character’s charm.
Shadow Types
In the new P4A, when choosing a character, a type is also selected. You can choose between Normal type and Shadow type (Elizabeth and Shadow Labrys do not have Shadow type). Normal type allows the use of Bursts for pushing back the rushing opponent or in combos with One More Bursts. Shadow type swaps the Burst for a new system, Shadow Rage. For players of the previous version of P4A, Normal type offers the same sort of feel as before.
When using Shadow type, pressing A+C+D simultaneously when the SP gauge is full actives Shadow Rage, which allows for unlimited use of SP Skills, Skill Boosts, etc. for a fixed period of time. You can also cancel Skills into other Skills. Using Shadow Rage, with the free use of meter you can connect with combos that would normally be impossible to do. It’s fair to say that Shadow type offers a huge buff to offense.
As for other contrasting points, Shadow type and Normal type have different auto-combos. Normal type includes new moves in the combination, making useful as a base for combos. In Shadow type, the fourth hit of the auto-combo builds more meter. In addition, Shadow type carries the SP gauge from the previous round. There doesn’t appear to any differences in special move properties, attack power or defense power between the two modes.
System Changes
When activating certain Skills, you can hold the A button to charge the special attack using the new “S Hold System”. The moves activated with the S Hold System vary by character. While the special move looks the same as before, charged special moves have additional properties, such as invincibility. While the time to charge the attack is a bit long, if used properly it should add to both offense and defense.
A significant change from the previous version is that you can now cancel normal moves into Hops. Since you can do normal attacks from a Hop, incorporating Hop cancels in close-range fights adds a new level of strategy. While normal attacks from Hops aren’t overhead, you can now moves from Hops slightly easier than before, making them easier to use as a counter to throws.
The ways to achieve a Fatal Counters are also slightly different. Taking a hit in during the recovery of a Furious Action will now always be a Fatal Counter, regardless of the type of attack used.
Other changes include the ability to perform certain Skills from a backdash. The D version of All Out Attacks is now cancellable.
Changes to Existing Characters
The existing characters have new moves and Skills. The new Skills seem to expand the play for all of the characters, with plenty of uses. Existing moves have changes to start-up, untechable time, proration, etc., so players will need to create new combos and mix-ups.

Lastly, Yukari and Junpei's bios were partially translated from tumblr: http://tansetsu.tumblr.com/post/58410791741/http-www-famitsu-com-images-000-038-325-l-520d7c0
quote:
http://www.famitsu.com/images/000/038/325/l_520d7c0945908.jpg
the first part of the bio says something like “Besides spending all of his time at a part time job, this year he’s working as a baseball coach! Although his simple, happy go lucky personality hasn’t changed his <something> power causes major <something>”
http://www.famitsu.com/images/000/038/325/l_520d7c0a28bcc.jpg
the bio says something like: “Formerly a member of sees, a beautiful comrade. Within her daily life as an active college model, taking advantage of her looks and high physical ability she’s working as a tokusatsu hero actress. [Aim] the trajectory of her bow and arrow freely! With her arrows of justice she will hit you dead on!”
now quick disclaimer not all of this was translated, there were some kanji that were simply too blurry…that said I think at least the jist of the bios about Junpei and Yukari are getting acrossed.
Now we know why Yukari looks the way she does.
