While I was developing the game, I wanted to know which way would the name, Akiko, would mean. In Kanji, the first part, Aki, has one of three meanings (Sparkle, Bright, Autumn). The last part, Ko, in Kanji it means Child. I looked it up on Wikipedia. Probably the wrong article, but whatever.

Out of all the way it could be named, I decided to use "Autumn Child" For the meaning. Though I don't know how the name would be written in Kanji.
And now I do know how Akiko's name would be written in Kanji, due to another website. In Kanji, Akiko's first name would be 秋子. The more you know.

But all that aside, I'm curretnly making Character Sprites for a couple of characters for the beginning. To make things quicker, I recolored one of the RTP female child characters for Akiko, as a child, and Emil, as a child. I'm currently using the Game Character HUB - Portfolio Edition to help with the rest of the character graphics in the game.
