Mon-musu Quest! aliasing

However, for characters originated from the original trilogy, it just feels weird when a character has been consistently named and known for a certain name for many years, suddenly should have another and more obscure name as the main tag.

You say that, but monster girl quest part 1 released in 2011. Monster girl quest paradox part 1 released in 2015. Paradox has existed for a significantly larger portion of the original trilogy's life than it has not existed for.

BUR #21611 has been approved by @nonamethanks.

deprecate frog_girl_(mon-musu_quest!)

Apparently they are distinct. Short hair with medium breasts (post #1357914) and long hair with large breasts (post #1357912). Plus some third other we only see in loss CG (post #1314505).

Should frog girl (mon-musu quest!) be deprecated in favor of distinguishing the two as Keroron & Kururu, as we do with Lilith & Lilim, and Pina & Pii?

Which one is Keroron and which one is Kururu? Please create these two tags. And maybe Unnamed Frog Girl (Mon-Musu Quest!) for the third frog girl.

This is a case of the old "a race of people that all look the same" trope, correct? It seems wrong to alias the race tag to the individual tag, for the reason in forum #251848. I haven't played Paradox, but do these characters also appear as NPCs? That is, do the named companions have the exact model as enemies/NPCs, with the only difference being that they're named when in the party, or are these characters the only instance of their species in Paradox?

Short answer: They're named the monsters in combat, and named the companions as companions/during regular interactions with the companion. But you'll also see multiple sea horse girls in the same place, all named sea horse girl.

Long answer: It's mixed. For example, Chrome isn't named after her species (imp/succubus), it's her name and she's one of a kind. Lizard Boss is the monster name, but it's not actually a different race from the accompanying lizard girls (Named Lizard Thief A/B), BUT her companion name is Miranda (And Liru/Len). Keroron and Kururu are short haired and long haired frog girls, and the third one is Frog Girl C. I shit you not, that's how the third frog girl's dialogue is separated.

If we're focusing on using the translated names and terms coined by Rogue Translator, Dargoth, DokuDoku translations, and ArzorX- why isn't the main tag monster_girl_quest!?

I'm not submitting this as an alias request yet because that'd require renaming MANY tags on top of this. So I'd like to know if there's a reason we prefer mon-musu to monster girl.
