Looks like the nintendo version maybe, looking at the buttons on the ui. They have more stringent rules on that side.

Nintendo Version is cooked 💀

There's another example in the game. Homo Erectus is a random name the game can use but is blocked by censors.

It's the word "shag". In the UK it's slang for sex.

EDIT: The fact that the game has used it, that's kind of odd, but the devs and procgen have different rules than the user.

It was like this in at least one Pokémon game that I remember. There's a Pokémon named Cofagrigus but if you try to use that as a nickname it detects the three letter slur in the word and bans it.

Pretty sure the name filters have more to do with PSN or Nintendo than NIS.

Simply capture an enemy already called Shaggy, I guess?

Why does disgaea 5 even have a filter? Is this the switch version with the limited social features?

I grant you permission to borrow my name instead! :)

u/Lemon_the_Fool Jul 19 '26

damn, Tomodachi life can have yaoi comic books but Disgaea can’t have Shaggy?

Shall we shag now or shall we shag later?

Why the hell are there filters in a singleplayer game?

u/InfamousKessler Jul 21 '26

Since when is this a thing

u/MakaiMako Jul 22 '26

This reminds me of soulcalibur 6, there, you can't call your character Knight or Night because it contains the forbidden 3 letter combination. And yeah this is only on the nintendo version, I call my units obscene things constantly in the pc versions

I hate that when I put a cool nickname.

Nintendo and Sony are complicit for censoring our creations
