Also borrowed from ''Final Fantasy'' is the naming convention of basic magic. In most installments of ''Final Fantasy'', the second and third tiers of magic are usually denoted by the suffixes ''-ra'' and ''-ga'', respectively. This convention is followed in ''Kingdom Hearts'', with one notable exception: While the fourth tier of magic in ''Final Fantasy'', when included, is ''-ja'', ''Kingdom Hearts'' uses the suffix ''-gun'', localized in English as ''-za'' in ''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]'' and ''-ja'' in ''[[Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-]]''. Some [[Accessory|accessories]] are named after the fourth tier of magic, using the suffix ''-gun'' (e.g., [[Firagun Bangle]]), as are two [[Reaction Command]]s, [[Firagun]] and [[Blizzagun]]. | Also borrowed from ''Final Fantasy'' is the naming convention of basic magic.
