' "Goa" was Japanese and translated is "Gore" '.

Well, technycally it was always Gore the whole time. It was not "translated" from japanese. Rather, japanese people can not pronounce "Gore Magala" due to their on phonetics, so they ended up saying "Goa Magara". It was not even changed, it was kept as it is.
