Okay. I've done some investigating. While it's true that the leader of the Convoy Council is Great Convoy and not Hyper Convoy... I can find no reference to the term "Hyper Convoy" on Japanese webpages by searching with a combination of the standard katakana for the words (ハイパーコンボイ, ha-i-paa ko-n-bo-i). I can find plenty of references to both Great Convoy (グレートコンボイ) and Star Upper (スターアッパー), so this doesn't seem to be a particular failing of the Japanese fandom.

I have the sneaking suspicion that the only time the term "Hyper Convoy" comes up is when Star Upper refers to himself with it. Unless someone can cite a source for where the term crops up as a legitimate rank, I'm calling foul.

(Out of curiosity, does anyone have the Japanese language version of this page? I want to have someone else look at it and check the phrasing on the "have passed the rank of" part.) --Monzo 02:36, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
