You know, shouldn't the latest trailer that showed Endrance transform be described as showing Macha not Maha?

Yeah, but isn't it generally used that Maha was the cat wearing a hat that was friends with Tsukasa and Macha for the Phase form Kite fought to differentiate them?

That is a mistranslation. It's Macha whether it's the cat or the Phase.

It would be the opposite if anything, according to the spellings on the CC2 website and in the games... But the difference is probably just a mistake...

Generally yes, to differentiate them. Personally, I've always used Macha as I learned that was the "correct" way it was to be. Though it's unsure really. Macha would be the German spelling, correct?

Macha's from Gaelic actually, but yes, that's the actual spelling.
They've officially stated that some of the wave names come from Irish mythology, so I'm betting that's the way it's supposed to be spelled (though in the Japanese games it's accidentally "Maha" I think).

And the cat form has always been spelled "Macha".

Though the Japanese version of A.I. Buster 2 has it spelled as "Maha." On the other hand though, they misspell "Male" and "female" in English.=P

From what I understand, Macha is pronounced differently from what we've been hearing (Ma-ha)...

It is in Gaelic ("Mah-kah"), and I don't actually know about English, but in Japanese the pronunciation of the goddess's name is "Ma-ha", same as the character. If the English pronunciation is wrong it's 'cause someone messed up and just went with the Japanese pronunciation...

Hmm... So this Jun Banshouya is the programmer from accounting?

It's called Keroro Gunsou ("Sergeant Ribibit" or something to that meaning). When they first showed it at the fan festival, I was hoping it would end up as a minigame like Snake vs. Monkeys, but it's just the video ;_;

Sgt. Frog. He's been popping up in unrelated Bandai ads for promotion more recently.
