Please use the Japanese name for the vanity system: "Mirage Prism"

I understand that being a translator for a foreign fan-base is probably a pretty thankless job. So, I want to start by saying I think generally, the localization team does an excellent job. As much as I usually enjoy their work and appreciate the humor they bring to much of the game, I really like the original Japanese name for the upcoming vanity system:

Mirage Prism

Now, I know that the English name for this is tentatively being called the "Glamour" system; however, after catching in the latest Live Letter what the Japanese are calling it, I'm really hoping we can ask to keep it the same as them. Mirage Prism has a very fantasy sound to it. I assume the English name is more of a reference to the older concept of a glamour, or a visual charm spell, but I think Mirage Prism has more panache.

Please, SE, consider changing this!

Yes please~

I like glamour better, oddly enough for the reason you like mirage prism. It's got the fantasy sound to it. And more traditional fantasy where mirage prism sounds more 'jrpg buzzword' fantasy.

I imagine it'll still get a nod at the very least though. Like the quest to get it mentions that you cast the glamours with them or something. Perhaps you'd have them as a actual item.

i personally like glamour better then mirage prism just sounds better to me, but that is my opinion.

Mirage Prism makes me think of Sailor Moon.

Not that I mind that any.

If i recall correctly from the live letter, that is exactly what they intended and said. I personally prefer Mirage Prism, but then i like Sailor Moon. ;)

I prefer Mirage Prism 10 times over "Glamour". When I do a make-over of my Character, I want to feel like a Disney Princess in the making, with a wand, magical transformation powers, and a black cat, not as if I just stepped onto a cat-walk in Paris with Gok Wan as my personal stylist.

I like glamour better.

makes me think of shiny pertty things :3

mirage prism sounds like if it fell into the wrong hands in a japanese anime, it could be used to destroy the world.

I prefer glamour- mirage prism sounds like... well like a disjointed translation.

Yeah, same.

I don't really have a preference, though I think "Mirage Prism" sounds more... silly.
