A few months back I attempted a small mod of SJR to make it look more in-line with the original art direction, it had mixed results and I shelved it for a while until the game was localized as I ran into a brick wall because I couldn't make it look the way I wanted it to, since then the game was localized and I was able to see how things were in-game as I was playing and I thought I give it another shot with continual feedback from the folks over at FTI along the way.
The goal was to do minor modifications to make it closer resemble the original but still retain as much of the new artwork as possible out of respect to the new designs, there were many inconsistencies with the new designs as sprites and portraits were off-color and not matching the original at all to strange design choices that wasn't made in 2013 when SMT4 came out with the original Demonica design intact, this will remedy that.

Vanity Add-on
There have been several additions since this originally released and if the screenshots don't example it good enough, here's a small explanation.
The vanity add-on is simply to change Strange Journey Redux (how is this meant to be pronounced, re-do? re-ducks?) to Deep Strange Journey on the 3DS homescreen banner and in the game but requires building the .cia to get it to appear on the 3DS homescreen, the de-shine version removes the "shine" and lightens the suit color to match the original as closely as possible and the upcoming creator copy version combines the de-shine version alongside slight re-draws made to the female crew members to mimic Kaneko's style that was kept with Zelenin.
