Ulala

Ulala, also known as Jennifer and Angel's Eye, is the main protagonist from the Space Channel 5 series.
== Charactah Account ==
Ulala is Space Channel 5's star reporter and a huge hit with the galaxy audience. She is also an excellent dancer and one of gaming's most recognizable female characters.
Ulala is often portrayed as confident; often heading into danger without showing the slightest trace of fear. When the Morolians invaded Spaceport 9 and most civilians fled in panic, Ulala confidently strutted forward to deliver her report. In Space Channel 5, she often remarks smugly about her performance if she does well against her opponent; stating "That was fabulous!" or "I kicked butt!" with a confident tone. However, Ulala can get less smug when she doesn't do well; stating phrases like "I...saved SOME of them, at least!" and "I gotta get better at this".
In Part 2, Ulala seems to have taken a less confident stance against the Rhythm Rogues. She often exclaims shock at some of the drama in the game, such as when people are taken hostage. In the original, she stated these developments calmly and professionally. However, Ulala still retains plenty of her confidence from the prequel, stating during the first boss fight "Whatever happens...I'll give it a dance!".

== Trivia ==
* Ulala's placeholder names were "Jennifer" and "Angel's Eye".
* Ulala may have been named after the French expression "Ooh La La." Additionally, "Urara," an alternative romanization which is a common given name in Japanese.
* Given that Ulala's mother is from East Nippon (Nippon being the Japanese word for Japan) she is likely of Japanese descent.
* The identity of Ulala's Japanese voice actress was kept as a secret for years. In Japan, the games would credit Ulala as being "voiced by herself." Eventually, it was later revealed that her Japanese voice actress was Mineko Okamura, the CEO of Grounding Inc. However, the reason as to why Mineko was credited as "Ulala herself" is still left unclear to this day.
* Coincidentally, UIala shares a birthday with Nazu Nahoko, a choreographer and a motion captures artist for the Space Channel 5 series. Nazu also dressed up as Ulala to promote the series multiple times.
** The actual given reason for Ulala's birthday being May 30th is because that was the date that the programmers made her 3D model move for the first time.
* Ulala has known Brent Suzuki since her childhood.
* Ulala, Pudding and Hoorg can all be assumed to be left-handed, as they always hold their microphones with their left hand.
** In SEGA Superstars Tennis however, both Ulala and Pudding hold their tennis rackets with their right hand.
* According to the game's art Director, Noboru Hotta, Ulala wore orange in the first game because it was both the colors of the Dreamcast (the console where Ulala made her debut) and because it was symbolizing something new and exciting for SEGA.
* In Space Channel 5: Part 2, the Ulala Mic item information in the changing room states that Ulala painted her Channel 5 microphone blue without asking for permission first.
** However, all of the other Channel 5 Reporters have blue microphones, oddly enough.
* Ulala's Woolen Wear outfit reveals that Ulala had a part-time job before becoming a Reporter. However, it is not revealed what she used to do.
* When Space Channel 5 VR: Kinda Funky News Flash! was announced, SEGA revealed they had lost contact with Ulala's original English voice actress, Apollo Smile, and that Cherami Leigh would be voicing Ulala. Team Grounding even made a tweet on November 14, 2018 asking for help in tracking down Apollo Smile for the game.
** Mineko Okamura, who is Ulala's Japanese voice actress and CEO of Grounding Inc., revealed in an interview that they were eventually able to find Apollo Smile, thanks to the Space Channel 5's dedicated community. However, Apollo herself didn't want to return to reprise her role.
* In versions of Virtua Fighter 5, Sarah Bryant can be customized to resemble Ulala.
* Ulala's Peach Suit reveals that Ulala loves shopping.
* Ulala's current voice actress, Cherami Leigh, is famous for voicing Lucy Heartfilia from the Fairy Tail anime series as well as Sailor Venus from the Sailor Moon anime series.
* In Unity's own measurements, Ulala's Space Channel 5 VR model about 1.795m (5′ 10.7″) tall.
* Ulala was mentioned in the song "Sunshine Slayer" by her former voice actress, Apollo Smile since one of the lines in the lyrics said, "Groovy like Ulala" in the song.
* In the English beta (v.0900) of the Dreamcast release, Ulala has different voice clips for her commands.
