mao (#891)

[Chudah]

I'm fairly certain (like 99% sure) that mao = Duca. After listening to her most recent album, "toddle", I was so convinced that they were one and the same singers (there's no mistaking the similarity in their voices if you're familiar with Duca at all) that I went on a quest to find any support for my suspicion. There are a few references on various blogs out there that confirm this:

If you want to go into it further, just analyzing the title of mao's first album with artwork, one can surmise that "toddle" (as in a child toddling) is Duca's rebirth as mao. Even the album's cover implies this with mao hatching out of her egg. Hijiri Anze features prominently on the album, which would connect Duca to mao as well.

Anyhow, just thought I'd share my observations here in case any of the admins might want to connect the two singers in the database. =)

Plenty of singers/voice actors use aliases for Hentai games, and they usually don't officially admit it and conceal their Hentai work history. While it sounds obvious enough for fans who have familiarity with their voices to say whose alias it is, I wonder if we need more evidences to treat these "open secrets" as the fact, since this database has some voice actors whose discographies include those of their unconfirmed (but likely) aliases. Similar discussions are often brought up in Wikipedia, and deleted because of "the invasion of privacy".

Hah, her voice is too much special for not understanding, that Mao is Duca.
I don't know why she doesn't want to show her face as Duca, but I love her songs very much, more for Duca, of course.

Duca have some live shows, but they doesn't record on CD or DVD, I'd show... to be honest. That's my favorite vocalist or eroge songs.
