YM "brainless". HTH.
Anyway, that's probably true, but it's not quite that simple. I don't think DJ would dislike Minmei if she were part of his social circle. She's earnest, and means well, and that kind of thing counts for a lot. She'd just really get on his nerves on the days when he couldn't quite tune out her chatter.
She's certainly not his type when it comes to the notion of a serious relationship, though. After all, he could know her for years in reasonable contentment before suddenly realizing that they'd never once had an actual conversation. :)

Great, now you got me thinking---bad idea.In Macross, Minmei was the secret weapon against the Zentraedi ("But you can't win a war by singing a song, Hikaru--that's stupid!"). Indeed, this made more sense than at first glance, once you take a certain Tokyo Rose into account.
However, in the context of NXE, singing a song might win a war, so long as that song were part of the Symphony.
An even better crossover for NXE/In Nomine--Angel from Rock and Rule. "If I can sing it [the demon] here, I can sing it back."
