I love Kugimiya Rie but in very rare circumstances. I also didn't recognize that this was her work, which is weird because Kugimiya Rie is one of the most easily-recognized voices in anime. Damn. I knew I was bad at identifying seiyuus but I didn't realize I was quite that bad. XD I LOVED her as Taiga in Toradora, and I love (and am re-loving) her voice as Alphonse in FMA too. In Toradora she sounds like her normal "URUSAI, URUSAI, URUSAI!" Kugimiya "Shana-tan" Rie self, whereas in FMA I didn't even know it was her until someone pointed it out to me years later and I was like "Say WHAT!?" lol Her voice for Alphonse (w/ the SFX included, of course) is just pure perfection.
So while it's a good guess, nah, I don't think I dislike Mellona because of association with lolitas by proxy of Kugimiya Rie. I think I dislike Mellona for the actual reasons I've stated and re-stated ad nauseum: her eyes, her personality, and the fact that she's not a good representative of goo girls. Which is a shame, because she's going to be introducing so many newcomers to that fetish and they're going to base their expectations on her, which ...
:murder: I'm gonna !@#$ the guy who popularized her in QB if she becomes the new gold standard for goo girls. A goo girl should be cute, well-intentioned, naturally clumsy -- not artificially! -- and most important of all she should look like she really is made of slime! It defeats the purpose entirely if a goo girl looks like the T-1000 from Terminator 2: Judgment Day, looking like a normal human being except for when she is pierced by weapons or when she turns into a shapeless puddle of goo to escape. I am not turned on by T-1000, sorry. I am not turned on by seeing a normal-looking girl get a sword blade tearing through her shoulder only to reveal she's made of clay/water/air/flying spaghetti nor am I turned on by seeing a girl transform into a puddle and run away like a coward.
Classic, CLASSIC repost, but I have to post it. It has to be said. THIS is what goo girls are all about!! The pictures that are attached after the first one are also pretty commonly posted on 4chan's /d/ and other /d/-themed imageboards, but here goes nothin'. ;p
Goo girls are innocent! Cute! Kind! Nothing that this girl was. She was an egotistical, cruel bitch. At least from what we saw in that fight scene. :\
