OK, here we have a functionally identical item, complete with tongue-in-cheek reference with the amount it restores. JP name is the same, and is the same as what the English name is in the latter appearance. Merge or no?

:I'd support it. It changed shape, but it's otherwise the same item. There's also [[Coco Pop]] and [[Coco Candy]] to look at. {{User:Niiue/sig}} 16:31, March 3, 2020 (EST)

While the Super Soda thing ended up unexpectedly controversial, I am still hunting for things that need merged between games. These are two far more clear-cut examples. Same recipes, JP name, and ''weirdly specific'' function (particulalry for the Jelly case). Note that the JP "Fire Candy" and "Electro Candy" were translated as "Fire Pop" and "Electro Pop," and didn't get a redesign or English name change.

#{{User|FanOfYoshi}} Why not?
#{{User|FanOfYoshi}} Why not?
#{{User|SmokedChili}} Per all. As I said on the [[Talk:Super Soda#Merge to Fresh Juice|Super Soda merge proposal]]: Given the localization of TTYD this name change is in line with other renames like [[Toad Town|Mushroom Town (or Mushville)]] and [[Goomba King|Chestnut King]] where an existing English name of the subject from the first game is replaced with a near-literal translation of its Japanese name. Also by the logic of different English name and appearance, shouldn't we then split [[Super Mushroom#Super Mario Bros.|Magic Mushroom]] from Super Mushroom?
#{{User|Toadette the Achiever}} Ehh, it's not ''that'' bad when you compare it to Super Soda and Fresh Juice, so I guess I'm fine with this one.
#{{User|7feetunder}} Like Fright Jar/Mask these are obviously just more instances of the translators not being able to predict the inexplicable redesigns of several items, thus the need to rename them.
