Facts about Klonoa and the series
« on: March 11, 2022, 11:09:51 am »
Note: Because Dream Traveler of Noctis Sol is unfinished, shelved, and not accessible on any official website now,
I will not consider it here until it's resumed and open to the public again.


Over the years, people have come to the forums and discussed many mysteries about Klonoa himself,
the worlds he has traveled to, and his friends/foes.
But even with discussions, people often find themselves confused.

The truth is, the information is as plenty as all the questions already asked - they're merely not available in languages other than Japanese.
Although there might not be definitive answers, I can tell you what the staff thought when working on the series with everything I've found.

Some of you may have known better than me, so please help me correct any flaws or provide more details.
Or, if you want to know about other facts, you can suggest them with replies, and I'll put them into the list below.
I'll keep editing this post instead of starting a new thread until it's too long.

The origin of the name Klonoa

Klonoa's species

That's strange, I heard somewhere that his name was a combination of "kuro" Japanese word for black, and "noir", French word for... the same thing. I really remember seeing tweets about it for some reason.
But the "C"lonoa thing is definitely true, so I dunno where that rumor's from

I remember seeing something about this. As in, somewhen in the early planning for the English localization, like, the title for the game was planned to be, like, "Clonoa the Breeze", or something. :unsure:

Anyhow, it's great to see a topic being created about the overall facts and tidbits about Klonoa. :D Keep it up!

The English working title was Klonoa of the Wind, to be exact.

Added Klonoa's age.

It's labeled unfinished because I need to check a particular thing twice.
I wonder if people feel wrong to take the role of a young character like Klonoa?

Added Klonoa's species.

So, does this matter? :unsure:
No matter what Klonoa is, he's still the floppy-eared hero or windy boy by whom we know well and love dearly, isn't he?
