Default Re: Dissidia Final Fantasy Japanese Site update.

I love the layout of the site.. especially the character page and how they use the number dial to scroll thru series entries...

Frioniel is correct for JP audiences. Its his original name. Firion was probably a result of truncation for when it was ported to the GBA, and then they just stuck with that..
Just like how Leonheart's name became Leon.

Emperor is correct too. The Japanese form of his name only states the word "Emperor" and makes no mention of his first name, Mateus, or his surname/empire name Palamecia.

You can also draw comparisons to Tina/Terra and Mash/Sabin in FFVI and Gilbert/Edward from FFIV...
