I'm in love with the BGM. I didn't like Neko Nikki at first, so kudos to whoever said Neko Nikki would make a great ED theme. He was totally right.
Spoiler for best scene in 11:
When Ranka held up the plane cookie at the sky and said happy birthday to Alto, I thought that was the cutest scene I've seen in Frontier so far. It was bittersweet, but the scene just made a huge impression with the BGM to boot. (The baby vajra looked at the sky too lol Too cute x_x) Her airplane cookies couldn't compare to Planet Galia as expected.
I guess even if I were a Ranka hater till now, this episode would've pulled a 180 on me and make me root for Ranka all the same. Great job, writers lol
I noticed out of everyone in this episode, Ranka was the only one who greeted Alto. How special. ^__^ Kawamori seems to always put his lead characters at a disadvantage in his stories. I remember Van from Escaflowne never even got to kiss Hitomi (compared to the other one) even if he was the main male lead.
Finally, the ridiculous debate about Nanase having a secret crush on Alto a couple of episodes ago can be put to rest.
As well as Brera's agent. So if Grace is with Sheryl, then that means there's also something special within Sheryl since Grace wouldn't hang out with her for no reason. Lastly, the stills of Alto and his brother rehearsing for the play made me think of Brokeback Frontier all over again.
