Re: Journey
I looked it up and the Gall Force characters all have "English" names written in katakana. Journey is "Jaanii" in the Japanese version. Apparently the creators were actually thinking of the English word when they chose this name.

Thank you! It never dawned on me that the Japanese animators would be using English names for their characters back in Japan. :)
