Bug type: Map Text + Mob Text
Brief bug summary: Within the region Ninja Castle, there are a few outdated / incorrect map and monster names.
More details:
1. Map: Ninja Castle Long Corridor
In JMS, the Ninja Castle revamp gave new names to several of the maps. GMS only received new names for maps 3 - 5 of the Ninja Castle Long Corridor maps:
Ninja Castle Long Corridor <Identity>
Ninja Castle Long Corridor <Of>
Ninja Castle Long Corridor <Daimyo>
Going off JMS, the maps are named 殿, 様, の, 正, and 体; put together these translate to "The True Identity Of the Lord / The True Identity Of Daimyo".
The expected result is that the Ninja Castle Long Corridor maps should be named as follows, in order:
Ninja Castle Long Corridor <The>
Ninja Castle Long Corridor <True>
Ninja Castle Long Corridor <Identity>
Ninja Castle Long Corridor <Of>
Ninja Castle Long Corridor <Daimyo>
The actual result is that the first two Ninja Castle Long Corridor maps are simply named "Castle Corridor" instead of "Ninja Castle Long Corridor <The>" and "Ninja Castle Long Corridor <True>". Similarly, the trap rooms next to the first two Ninja Castle Long Corridor are named "Castle Corridor" instead of "Ninja Castle <Chamber of Time>", "Ninja Castle <Chamber of Battle>", "Ninja Castle <Chamber of Traps>", and "Ninja Castle <Chamber of Wisdom>".
2. Map: Ninja Castle Dream Corridor
For the Phantom's Room maps, JMS renamed them to "Ninja Castle Dream Corridor <X>", where each of the words is 深, 夜, の, 城, 内, 聞 ,こ, え, る, 鳴, き, 声. Putting them together as 深夜の城内聞こえる鳴き声 translates to "A Cry That Can Be Heard Deep Inside The Castle At Midnight".
The expected result is that the Phantom Room maps should be named as follows, or something similar:
Ninja Castle Dream Corridor <A>
Ninja Castle Dream Corridor <Cry>
Ninja Castle Dream Corridor <That>
Ninja Castle Dream Corridor <Can>
Ninja Castle Dream Corridor <Be>
Ninja Castle Dream Corridor <Heard>
Ninja Castle Dream Corridor <Deep>
Ninja Castle Dream Corridor <Inside>
Ninja Castle Dream Corridor <The>
Ninja Castle Dream Corridor <Castle>
Ninja Castle Dream Corridor <At>
Ninja Castle Dream Corridor <Midnight>
The actual result is that the maps are all simply named "Phantom Room" instead of "Ninja Castle Dream Corridor <A>", "Ninja Castle Dream Corridor <Cry>", "Ninja Castle Dream Corridor <That>", etc.
3. Map: Tower Room
The two boss rooms for the Gigatoad are named differently as well; the one that goes up to Gigatoad is named
Tower Room, while the one that goes up to Frenzied Gigatoad is named
Boudoir 2. The expected result is that they should both have the same name.
4. Ninja Castle: Monster Names
The monsters in Ninja Castle have inconsistent names as well. A few of the monsters have the prefix "Sakura" in their names, namely Sakura Genin, Sakura Chunin, and Sakura Jonin. A few other monsters have the prefix "Kaede", namely Kaede Ninto, Kaede Ashigaru, Kaede Kunoichi, and Kaede Toad. These are a remnant of when we had both Sakura Castle (now closed) and Ninja Castle; the prefix "Sakura" was given to Sakura Castle mobs and the prefix "Kaede" was given to Ninja Castle mobs to distinguish them from each other. With the recent familiar revamp, Kaede Genin, Chunin, and Jonin were named to "Sakura <name>" instead.
The expected result is that the mobs should either share a prefix, or remove the Sakura + Kaeda prefixes altogether, leaving us with Genin, Chunin, Jonin, Ninto, Ashigaru, Kacchuu Musha, Kunoichi, and Mr. Toad.
5. Showa Town: Yakuza Executive / Officer Monster Names
Before Showa was updated in March 2021, there were two variants of a miniboss named "Male Boss A" and "Male Boss B". All instances of Male Boss A, including in Maple Tour, were renamed to "Yakuza Executive", while all instances of Male Boss B were renamed to "Yakuza Officer".
Since the two mobs have identical appearances, the expected result is that all variants including Showa and Maple Tour, as well as all items with related names such as Familiar Cards, should be unified with the name "Yakuza Officer", or even "Yakuza Bigshot" since the leftover ETC item is named "Bigshot Pomade".
Steps to reproduce:
1. Enter Ninja Castle's dungeon, or enter Showa Town's Hideout
2. Walk to any of the aforementioned maps, and fight any of the aforementioned mobs.
Character name: GreenGales
Character level: 257 (applies to anyone though)
Character job: Wind Archer (applies to any class though)
World name: Bera (applies to any world though)
Date and time of the incident: March 13, 2021 at 2:00 PM EST (but this issue has existed since Ninja Castle's revamp)
