Kasizzle is a spell in the Dragon Quest series. Introduced in Dragon Quest III, it is the final spell in the Sizz series, and immolates a group of enemies with a wave of ferocious hellfire.

Localization History

In III~VIII, Kasizzle was used as the English equivalent of Begiragon. Due to a set of new, fourth-tier spells being brought into the main series from the Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker spinoffs between the development and localization of IX~XI, giragrade became the most powerful wave of fire spell in Dragon Quest X. Due to the English root word of Sizz being unable to be further expanded upon as the Japanese gira was, the localization team opted to assign the new English name Kasizz to Begiragon in titles where all four tiers of gira spells appear, while Kasizzle was hence applied to Giragrade.
