Not for me...I still didn't like her very much at this point. From bitch (episode 1) to overly dramatic bitch (episode 2) to overly dramatic bitch who very nearly killed herself, Ranka, and Alto (this episode), I thought she kinda sucked. It wasn't until episode 5 that I warmed up to her.

This is one of the touches I love...that Sheryl's line seemed to make absolutely no sense (to the point where I wondered if I'd misunderstood...and then I saw the subs, and they said the same thing...and I was very confused) until you look back at it after hearing about Galaxy.

Really helps make the world feel real.

"Suki ni shirou yo" is one of those things that's very difficult to translate into English that sounds natural. "Do what you like" is probably the most literal translation, but I think "Sure, go ahead" or "If you like" convey the meaning better.
