One of the most intriguing mysteries in the world of anime music: the identity of Gabriela Robin.
Yoko Kanno is an extremely renowned Japanese composer, known for creating iconic soundtracks for anime such as Cowboy Bebop, Wolf's Rain, and Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex.
Gabriela Robin, on the other hand, is credited as the singer or lyricist of several songs composed by Kanno, often featuring lyrics in invented or exotic languages.
For years, fans have speculated that Gabriela Robin was not a real person but a pseudonym used by Yoko Kanno herself to sing or write anonymously. Despite Kanno's repeated denials, her vocal performances at certain moments bear similarities that have reinforced these suspicions.
