It's exactly the same in the NES version of Dragon Quest II, though! Dragon Quest I had a background during battles, but DQ2 -- due to the increased complexity of battles, with multiple enemies and multiple party members -- cut back to pure black backgrounds.
Man... please someone tell me why this hasn't been translated for the MSX2 yet into English? It's not like the script isn't available... Would LOVE to play this on my MSX2 in English!

Damn no background during the battles? It must of been rough being a msx rpg guy back in the day.

Looks better than the first for the MSX; sounds better too.
This one makes the first MSX version look like crap
