2000pts


Dracula Densetsu

A lot of names of the monster have been changed from a Japanese version.
In it, there must be the translation staff's misunderstanding, too.


Akumajo Dracula (Super Famicom)

Skull Horse & Skull King - Rowdain
Twin Head Dragon - Orhphic Vipers
Death Breath Head - Puwexil
Big Stone - Koranot
Ghost Dancer - Dancing Specters
Iron Crusher - Sir Grakul
Golden Batton - Zapf Bat
Mummy - Akmodan II
Berigan - Slogra

and more more more...

Most monsters name have been changed.
Does anyone know the reason?


Akumajo Dracula XX


Or, monster's name might be an imagination of the castlevania fan.


Akumajo Dracula X: Gekka no Yasoukyoku

a.k.a. "Tengu Goblin" or "Nose Demon"
We learn a correct translation thanks to the X Chronicles.


Castlevania: Akatsuki no Minuet

Minuet: Souma Kurusu (japanese people)
Aria: Soma Cruz (exchange student)

IGA explained that it had changed the profile of Soma to give the sense of intimacy to an overseas fan.


Akumajo Dracula: Sougetsu no Juujika
music title mistake



Haunted Castle's music titles

Stage4 : Underground Melodies
Stage5 : Clock Tower's Terror (Unofficial Translation)

DOS is a mistake.
It is perhaps because two music was connected.
In Haunted Castle's sound track CD.


Akumajo Dracula X Chronicle

L. Vampire is "Lesser Vampire".
Not "Lady Vampire".

*Gaiden?*
Some meanings are in Japanese Language "Gaiden".

"Side story (canon)"
"Parallel world story (non canon)"

"Akumajo Dracula Mokushiroku Gaiden: Legend of Cornell" is
Side story of "Akumajo Dracula Mokushiroku".

Perhaps, IGA is using this word in the meaning of the "Parallel world story".
