    Just pointing out that the Japanese title is 紅蓮の解放者 (guren no kaihōsha), which I would translate more as Liberators of the Crimson Lotus rather than just crimson as 蓮 (hasu) means lotus with 紅 (kurenai) meaning a dark-red/crimson colour.

    The monk ability Fists of Fire is actually called 紅蓮の構え (guren no kamae) or Crimson lotus stance, so the Japanese title does seem to focus more specifically on our role as liberators of Ala Mhigo, which is nice. Still, I do like the name Stormblood ^.^
