Naoto is a first year high school student (and a little short), but also maintains a job as a (famous) private detective. Due to this, he is regularly involved with the serial killings in Inaba, and thus regularly comes into contact with the main character and his party. His demeanor seems calm and professional, but also cold to others around him (including girls who try to make a pass at him at school).
When Naoto awakens to his powers as a Persona User, he receives the Persona Sukunahikona. Sukunahikona is a deity from Japanese Shinto folklore that helped with the creation of ancient Japan as a country, and was said to be very small. Sukunahikona was also said to possess healing powers, and is often considered a god of healing and medicine. It is unknown if Naoto's Persona will acquire healing spells or not, but the Famitsu article does note that Sukunahikona is quite small in size (like his master).
Though there is still no news of a North American release at the moment, Atlus should be at E3, so we can all keep our fingers crossed.
Persona 4 will be released in Japan on July 10th, 2008 with both a standard and limited edition.
