'''Kazapple''' is a spell in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest Series]]''. It draws MP from all four party members to strike an enemy with an earth-shaking bolt of divine lightning. It cannot be used when even one of the casters have zero MP or has a status effect.  
'''Kazapple''' is a spell in the {{DQSeries}} that delivers the fury of the Gods unto the player's enemies. The finer details of the spell vary between titles, but it is always the strongest Lightning-element ability in every game it appears in.

Alongside the games in which ''Jigodein'' appeared as Kazapple (mostly the Monsters series), there were also other games (mostly the numbered games) that featured the other spell ''Minadein'' translated as Kazapple as well.
For {{DQ11}}, as both are present, in order to prevent a situation where two spells are called the same, ''Minadein'' was renamed to [[Kazapstrophe]]. See [[Kazapstrophe]] for the spell that refers to ''Minadein''.

It deals lightning damage to all enemies calculated on the three characters' total [[Magical Might]] (can go up to 594~654) and has a high chance of causing [[paralysis]] and decreasing lightning resistance.
Kazapple is learned by [[Hero (Dragon Quest IV)|the hero]] at level 37. It costs 15 MP from all party members. It cannot be used if [[Alena]], [[Ragnar]], or [[Torneko]] are in the party as they don't have MP.

Kazapple is learned by the [[Hero's Son (Dragon Quest V)|Son]] at level 38, and by the [[Conkuistador/recruit|Conkuistador]] at level 60. The same restrictions from ''IV'' apply. Because neither caster can equip the [[Duplic hat]] in the SNES version, the spell cannot be echoed.

Anyone in who is/has been a Legend (via Rank 8 of the [[Hero (Class)|Hero]] class) can use Kazapple. Unlike Dragon Quest IV, all characters can use Kazapple because they all gain MP. The spell will echo if the original caster has the Duplic hat equipped, and turn order is determined by the caster's [[Agility]].

Any character that reaches rank 8 of the Hero vocation can cast Kazapple. Similar to ''VI'', the spell is easy to use as all character gain MP and is again based on the initiator's swiftness.

==={{DQMJ3}}===
Kazapple returns to the series after a 17 year absence, and is learned by the [[Hero (Dragon Quest XI)|Hero]] as per tradition. Rather than requiring MP as before, the spell needs all four casters to be [[Pep|in the zone]], and the Hero must know [[Kazap]]. The power is dependent on the sum of the party's [[magical might]]. The spell starts out dealing 690~750 lightning damage to all foes, and starts increasing in power once the sum of the participant's magical might reaches 527, peaking at dealing 1410~1470 damage when the total magical might of the users reaches 1986.
Kazapple has the same parameters as in the previous two games.
* The numbers 527 and 1986 are a clever reference to the publishing date of the [[Dragon Quest|quest that started it all]]: May twenty-seventh, 1986.
 
In the English version, Kazapple instead refers to a pep power usable by the Hero, [[Jade]], and [[Rab]], which requires the Hero to know Kazap and for Jade to know [[Lightning Storm]], with the spell formerly known as Kazapple is instead referred to as Kazapstrophe. The three-person pep power starts out dealing 286~346 lightning damage to all enemies, with the damage starting to increase once the sum of the three's Magical Might reaches 380, and capping at 594~654 once it reaches 975. In addition, it has a 20% chance to either reduce the target's lightning resistance by 25% or paralyze them.
