Basically, they are interchangeable for the voice library... as for their canon relationship, that'll be revealed soon enough. (Kind of glad the PR team for Unity tweets in English as well, so definitely a good opportunity to clear any discrepancies when needed.)

Anyways... my thoughts on the whole concept: I like the idea, but I'm not as impressed with the voicebank. It's okay, but it's not as unique to me since I hear the same type of similarities of Rana's voice type. However, I AM very excited to see how the incorporation of Unity x VOCALOID works out, not just for the future of gaming but quite possibly the future of music as well. It's a good start, and hopefully it works out well. :-) Apparently Yukari is due for a unity release too... And internet co just got on board recently. I'm just watching the VO thread, the whole thing gives me a headache.

A lot of things are based on two facts;
 * 1) Poor/lacking translations early on
 * 2) No follow up interest from the western fandom.

In both cases... ITs not helped.
