When ''Dragon Quest IX'' was released in English, the spell ''Meragaia'' was localized as Kafrizzle, despite the fact that ''Merazoma'' had been localized as Kafrizzle in ''[[Dragon Quest VIII]]'' and Zenithian remakes. It should be noted though that Meragaiā's in-game animation looks similar to Kafrizzle's animation in ''Dragon Quest VIII'', which is likely why it was given that name.
In ''Dragon Quest IX'', Kafrizzle (メラガイアー '''''Meragaiā''''') is a new spell; however, despite the fact that ''Merazoma'' had been localized as Kafrizzle in ''[[Dragon Quest VIII]]'' and the [[Zenithia Trilogy|DS remakes]], to keep with the new spell naming structure ''Merazoma'' became [[Kafrizz]]. Kafrizzle therefore remains the most powerful of the ''[[Frizz]] family'' of spells.
