Monster Farm 2 Translations and Reference guide
Additional Credits: Big Baku-huna for providing translation screenshots.Work In Progress
This is simply a collection of Menu images for those playing the Japanese version of Monster Rancher 2 (Monster Farm 2) and need help referencing the English menu selections while playing the Japanese version to navigate and play the game. I don't plan to capture or translate all dialogue in the game, as most of it isn't really needed to play the game in terms of raising/training/battling your monster.

Yes/No selections always have "Yes" on top of, or to the left of "No"

Battle options
This includes giving up as well as deciding to control your monster.
New Game and initial setup
You only ever see this event once. This is how to navigate through the beginning events to get to the Town main menu. I left the dialogue out that does not give you any choices, but you will see each option here where you must provide input to proceed.
There will be some exchange as you are introduced to Colt. Afterwards she asks if you want to know about anything, simply choose the last option to proceed, otherwise you can watch Colt explain various things to you for the other options.
Once you have told Colt you are done, you will now be at the Town main menu (minus the Hall option, until you get a Hall of Fame monster).
Funeral Options
When that sad moment comes, you can either hold a ceremony, or not. Most of this is dialogue without any choice options regardless if you hold the ceremony. Once it is finished, you will be at the Town main menu.
