If you don't mind requests by any chance could you do the kill the past trilogy by suda51? Its three games: silver case, flower sun and rain and 25th ward: the silver case. It touches on topicz like dehumanization, urbanization and absurdism. Its one of my favorites of all time.

To answer why they suddenly use Herlock Sholmes at the end: LeBlanc had written the short story you read involving Sherlock Holmes and the first two stories in the next collection, which also involved Sherlock Holmes and Watson without permission from Doyle. The French translation of Sherlock Holmes and Lupin were published in the same magazine, which might have given LeBlanc confidence he was allowed to use Doyle's characters in his stories? That's just speculation on my part, maybe he just did it because it was cool. Anyways, Doyle found out and got his lawyers to shut down LeBlanc so halfway through publishing a series of short stories about Sherlock Holmes and Watson LeBlanc had to suddenly change their names for the rest of the stories to Herlock Sholmes and Wilson, which were common parody names for the two characters at the time and still, to this day, if you aren't given the permission to use the characters by the Doyle estate, it's tradition to use those names instead. The English translations and later collections would replace the names in the first two stories as well so it's all consistent. There's still modern day examples of people having to use Herlock Sholmes and Wilson in their works, the most famous probably being the official English translation of The Great Ace Attorney 1 and 2, which is a retelling of Sherlock Holmes that was able to use the proper names in the original Japanese version of the games but when they got translated into English for some reason they had to go with Herlock Sholmes and Wilson.

It's not really played as a big twist in Persona 5, but it's cool that they incorporate the idea of Joker narrating the story himself into the game. Him omitting some details from Sae leads to a couple of fun twists for the reader too, so it feels like they keep the spirit of the book without being as direct as they could have been :)
