Name origin

The technique name is a pun/play on words of Masamune. In Japanese, the name of this technique is グランドリーム guran dorīmu "Grand Dream" while the name for Masamune is グランリオン guranrion "Grandleon".

The original SNES localization translated this technique name literally despite the fact that it changed the name of the sword to "Masamune", thus the pun was lost in translation. However, the modern localization (taken from the weapon of the same name from Chrono Cross) retained the play on words.
