7. "RE: GA: The Vocaloid Variations"
In response to message #6

>>Megpoid, and its mascot character GUMI (written in all caps in >>the official bumf, much like KAITO and MEIKO, come to that), are so >>called because the source of the original voice samples is Japanese >>actress Megumi Nakajima; the name literally breaks down to something >>like "a Megumi-like Vocaloid". (Amusingly, the "poi" in >>Megpoid is the same as the "poi" in Yuudachi.) > >I only just realized that this means Megapoid is Ranka Lee... >go figure. Yep! That's why Gumi has that color scheme (green hair, yellows/greens on outfit) - Ranka predominantly had that arrangement in Macross Frontier. --- Philip (Of course this means in UF, Ranka probably got her start covering Gumi's songs before branching off to her own repertoire...)
