Monster Master: Difference between revisions

The profession is notable for frequently having its name changed even in the Japanese originals: it was changed to 魔物マスター (''Mamono Masutā'') in the [[Nintendo DS]] remake and it's subsequent ports, became 魔物ハンター (''Mamono Hantā'') in the seventh game, まもの使い (''Mamono Tsukai'') in the tenth game, まものマスター (''Mamono Masutā'') in both ''Stars'' and ''Walk''. In all ''Monsters'' titles the vocation is called the モンスターマスター (''Monsutā Masutā''). Not counting the alternate kanji and katakana spellings, this leaves the vocation with three distinct Japanese names.

In English the name was changed to Monster ''Masher'' for the seventh game to match the alteration in the original script but has since returned to being referred to as the Monster Master in peripheral media and spinoff titles, with two exceptions in {{DQTact}}. In the ''Terry's Wonderland'' event in ''Tact'' [[Terry|young Terry]] introduces himself as being a Monster ''Scout'' and the {{Hero 5}} of the fifth game has the title of Legendary Monster ''Wrangler'' in ''Tact''.
