I still can't figure out why they'd change Moogle Charm to Molulu's Charm. There's not really a more appropriate name for a relic found in the Moogles' cave and only equippable by Mog.
From what I've been told is that Molulu was either Mog's girlfriend/wife, and she gives him the charm as a keepsake to keep him safe. Molulu IS one of the moogles who fights with you in the Narshe battle at the beginning (in the GBA retranslation, forget what her name was in the SNES one), so that actually would make sense.

Also some pics from my copy of the JP guide, the front/back covers without the jacket are awesome:







Jam it back in, in the dark.

All of the moogle names got retranslated IIRC (from the screens on the official US site). When I get a chance I'll skim Mog's section in that guide and skim it for anything about Molulu and try to translate that part.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Really? I thought all the other Moogles in the beginning had a name that started with K. With the exception of Mog himself....





The closest one to Molulu would be Kumama. Well, I suppose it makes sense if its one of the ones in the GBA version, but it definitely came out of left field if their names were faithful to the original. Speaking of names being faithful, is it Vicks and Wedge again, or is it still Biggs and Wedge? I dunno, just a random question, but I'm curious as to see which version of FFVI they retained the names closer to.

EDIT: Damn, got beaten to it.
Well the video at the official site shows Locke's moogle party as:

Locke
Moglin
Mogret
Moggie


US SNES original parties:
Locke
Kupek
Kupop
Kumama

Mog
Kuku
Kutan
Kupan

Kushu
Kurin
Kuru
Kamog



....yeah, I'm pretty convinced they just made up shit in the SNES translation. I can't find the screen I saw of Molulu and it's driving me nuts . I'm thinking maybe Kuku = Molulu? If the Mo is dropped they're pretty similar. I guess. If I didn't have to be asleep like 2 hours ago I'd find the rom and just play to that point real quick.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Yup, the only scene outright altered was Celes being punched. Pretty sad, but you have the Japanese to blame for it plain and simple. That or terrorism. -- I'd rather just blame the Japanese for being prudes about it though.
For the record, the scene was pulled from the Japanese release apparently because there's been some kind of big surge in kidnappings/beatings in Japan recently, and given the current mood they felt it best to remove the scene. I'd heard that previously, and then there was apparently a thread on 2ch about it, so there may be some legitimacy to that. I think that scene was in the original JP SF release, and if it was that more or less confirms it.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
