47 Is Sylia From Bgc A Boomer?
The evidence is as follows:
BGC #1: In a flashback, Sylia gets a data unit from her dead father which, when read on a computer, instantly downloads his knowledge into her mind.
In #3, Meison reviews similar information (with pictures of Sylia added).
BGC #3: Right before the big fadeout, "Buraian Jei Meison" calls out telepathically to "Shiria... Shiria Sutingurei". Sylia "hears" him and turns back and looks at Genom Tower, disquitened.
BGC #6: At the end, Largo/Meison says that he and Sylia are both of the same kind.
BGCrash #3: Largo remarks to Sylia that "you, like me, are a lifeform that is neither human nor boomer, but superior to both. That is why I should have killed you twelve years ago, along with Dr. Stingray".... However, some fans don't accept Crash as canon because of continuity problems and overall low series quality.
Less likely evidence:
Sylia has a somewhat unemotional personality. (But scientists are often portrayed that way anyway.)
Mackie lusts for Sylia. (This _could_ mean that they are not related, but probably has more to do with teenage hormones.)
It is generally believed that Sylia is at least enhanced somehow; whether or not she's actually a boomer is unknown, as is Mackie's status. (Note that Sylia's existence as a child does _not_ mean she isn't a boomer; the 33S boomers in #5 and #6 were made of flesh and blood and could heal, so boomers that grow aren't very far-fetched.)
