History[]

Space Channel 5[]

Report 4: Evil in the Galaxy Revealed!
Cecil is one of many who show up on top of Channel 5 HQ to help provide Ulala with chant support near the end of Report 4 (both in the normal mode and extra mode).

Cecil Aroma (first game)

Report 1: Introducing...Ulala!
Cecil Aroma can later be found being forced to dance in the Extra Mode version of Report 1, on the second floor lobby of Spaceport 9. However, it is necessary to have a certain amount of views to make him spawn; if the view rating is between 95% to 100% after the two shooting segments in the second floor, the player will find the Morolians forcing Cecil Aroma to dance and they will be able to rescue him in a dance battle. If the view rating is below 95% though, the player will find the Morolians forcing Mr. Orville Plum to dance instead. When Cecil is rescued and joins Ulala after the dance battle, he will walk releasing flower petals behind, and all of the other rescued hostage will mimic him.

Trivia[]

  • Cecil Aroma's In-Game Profile from the first game implies that he is attracted to men. This is confirmed in the Space Channel 5 Gyun Gyun Book, though in an outdated and offensive manner.
    • This makes Cecil Aroma one of the four Space Channel 5 characters who are or are hinted to be LGBT+ characters. The other three are Amy Amania, Purge and Clork.
  • In the Dreamcast and Playstation 2 versions of Space Channel 5: Part 2, Cecil Aroma's In-Game Profile states that he is good mates with Noize. However, this was removed in the HD remasters of the game, for the Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and PC, likely due to its homophobic implications.
  • In Japanese, Cecil is always called "Ken." In the English localization of Space Channel 5, his name was changed to Cecil Aroma; however, he is known as Ken in Part 2's and Space Channel 5 V's English versions.
