==Operation Around the World==<br />
<br />
In April 2017, following the English-language release of Persona 5, gaming company Atlus came under fire for the game's "localization problems," with games journalists and Twitter users decrying the quality of the translation stating that it seemed rushed and stilted, and that the characterization was weak.{{cite|site=Polygon|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170420171707/http://www.polygon.com/2017/4/20/15356026/persona-5-translation-localization|title=Persona 5 deserved better: a translator's take on a subpar script - Molly Lee - April 20 2017|aurl=http://archive.is/RNd7O}}{{cite|site=Eurogamer|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170517115545/http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2017-05-17-persona-5s-translation-is-a-black-mark-on-a-brilliant-game|title=Persona 5's translation is a black mark on a brilliant game - Connor Kramer - May 17 2017|aurl=http://archive.is/Z2sr3}} GamerGate, wary of cronyism in the industry, was quick to notice that the same groups who denounced Persona 5's localization had defended Fire Emblem Fates' localization.{{cite|site=Twitter|url=https://twitter.com/mombot/status/855222255663554560|title= mombot - April 20 2017|aurl=http://archive.is/j1KdL}}<br />
<br />
Operation Around the World was started for gamers to email or tweet to Atlus their support and love of Persona 5 and its localization, and to convey their preference for accurate translations of Japanese games over censored and significantly altered Americanized localizations (such as Fire Emblem Fates (see: [[Operation: Torrential Downpour]])). Participants were also encouraged to show proof of their support by showing photos of their owned copies and screenshots of the game being played.{{cite|site=8chan|url=https://8ch.net/gamergatehq/res/330500.html|title=Operation :Around The World (Persona 5) - (Anonymous) - April 21 2017|aurl=http://archive.fo/pxzAz}} <br />
<br />
====Outcome====<br />
Despite criticism leveled at Persona 5, the game's English version was a remarkable success, receiving high scores at various games news sites and, combined with Japan's sales, exceeding 1.5 million sales worldwide in the first month of release.{{cite|site=Persona Channel News Blog|url=http://p-ch.jp/news/detail/?nid=535|title="Persona 5" worldwide sales exceeded 1.5 million! - April 06 2017|aurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20170407134349/http://p-ch.jp/news/detail/?nid=535}} <br />
