Trivia
Makakaja's effect of raising the magical attack power will often be folded into Tarukaja for various Shin Megami Tensei games (e.g.: Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey and Redux), making Makakaja's presence redundant. Luster Candy being named for Ra[kukaja]-Su[kukaja]-Ta[rukaja] is an example where Makakaja's effect still happens, but is represented in the "Ta" part.
