The original Japanese versions of the ''Monsters: Joker'' spinoffs introduced a single-target spell by the name of ''Mahotomu'' and continued to use the name ''Mahotōn'' for the multi-target spell. The English localization team decided to use the name Fizzle for the new single-target spell in the games, while using the new name [[Kafizzle]] for the original spell, which always affected a group of enemies. | |||
