This change wouldn't change the rating. Whatever it would get normally is what it gets..

I have games with much worse things happening that got a T.

I'm afraid I have to go by what Kobayashi has stated regarding the rating check/submission for Star Ocean, since the producer would be more knowledeable on the outcome.

It got a similar rating in Japan as T in US. No way it would have changed, but they might have added "Sexual content" as print on the back. Either way translation errors happen, and it might have been interpretted different as well.

 

It is funny to me that SE cares, since Type 0 HD got an M rating and sold ok. And that M rating was not from anything sexual, mostly the tiny amount of blood.
