Masa & Mune: Difference between revisions

'''Masa & Mune''', known in Japan as {{nihongo|'''Grand'''|グラン|Guran}} and {{nihongo|'''Leon'''|リオン|Rion}}, are twin beings of extreme power who appear in both [[Chrono Trigger]] and [[Chrono Cross]]. In both games, they are brothers who are associated with the legendary weapon [[Masamune]]. Mune is Masa's younger brother.

In Frog's sidequest, after he sees [[Cyrus (Boss)|Cyrus' ghost]], the Masamune comes off him and Masa & Mune appear, saying that his "emotional baggage" was weighing him down and that the Hero's strength is strength of will. Mune says that he can not save the world if he is dwelling on the past, and Masa says he is truly strong now, and now they can use all of their power. They enter back into the Masamune and Frog takes it back, commenting that it is now in its true form.

==Chrono Cross==

In [[Chrono Cross]], the brothers (along with their sister Doreen) return as avatars of the Masamune.  Though less central to the game's storyline, the Masamune remains a powerful, though corrupt, weapon.  After defeating [[Dario]] during a sidequest, Masa and Mune will appear and reveal that the evil power which corrupts the weapon was allowed to enter because they were sleeping.  Their big sister Doreen appears and, after chastising the boys for allowing this to happen, she fuses herself into the blade, along with the brothers and [[Serge]]'s original weapon, the [[Sea Swallow]]. This creates the [[Mastermune]], the most powerful weapon in the game.  In the Japanese version, it's known as the Guran Doreen and is a play on words meaning "Grand Dream".
