I'm glad I came to this thread on the day of Thanksgiving in America.
Just like in real life, I get to witness a dysfunctional but beloved family goofing around. Also, I hope all that Brera/Ranka stuff is just supposed to be about the acquisition of the sibling relationship of which they were both robbed. Otherwise, squick. |

Outside the fans realm, I fail to see the loop-side against Ranka.

If we take Kawamori's word, then the second movie is closer to his original scenario? So yeah, Yoshino did reign in a lot. Quote:

Well, if you say "bias" in the term of "will lose in the romance", they had a bias against her. If you say "bias" meaning "got a super-improvement over her series self, to the point that she was completely without any sorts of personality flaws", that's also true.

I for one, never understood how come someone earnestly believed Ranka was going to officially 'win' the triangle since the beginning. I took a look a characters design and knew the pink haired one was going to get "chosen". This isn't the same as liking Ranka/Alto (I admit I've enjoyed the pairing potential a lot in movieverse), I can understand how someone would ship the pairing (or any pairing for that matter).

I see more fanarts for Brera/Sheryl than Brera/Ranka that are otherwise romantic or even go to so far as sexual. Most people just like Brera and Ranka together because siblings are usually very happy (unless they have a bad relationship with each other). Quote:

She's a strong character in the movies but you don't get to see that growth much due to her small screen time. They should've given her more scenes to show that growth they gave her. Sure, they gave her some scenes, but as usual in the movies, Sheryl was shown the most and dominated the screen, story, and plot, even the ending (not to mention the Nyan Nyan Final Attack and Sayonara no Tsubasa had more vocals by May'n than Nakajima as proof). Really now... no proof? I think not. It was obvious point blank from the beginning 30mins of the 1st movie that Sheryl was going to be the point of interest. Hell, she even arrives at a scene that was just Alto and Ranka (GRIFFITH PARK). The roles went like such: Alto = main character Sheryl = main character Ranka = main character but plays supporting role Honestly, it was obvious, even to those who weren't interested in the romance section. Just look at how many reviews there are for both movies. They stated it too. Quote:
Now I understand why you ship the two girls over any with Alto. It's not about their personality, it's about sexuality. I looked at Ranka's design, then I watched her, I watched the first episode before deciding who I'd support to the end. After her first impression with Alto, I was hooked on her because her personality was open and embracing, something I like in characters. So I picked her. It's not about "design" but rather "personality" that I looked at. And whether or not Ranka was going to "win," I didn't really follow that "watch weekly" thing if you recall. I watched all the episodes in one lump. And I still saw Alto and Ranka as a viable pairing in the end. From the way they communicated in the scenes they did get and to the way Alto was happy and content with her over others, really showed how close net they were. I honestly enjoyed all the good and bad times and cared less that she was always the damsel in distress because at least she was a better one than past characters (she didn't get killed or injured). I also enjoyed the cute moments and implied romantic moments, especially the date in the movie. But also, most of all, I enjoyed her personality over any character in the show. She has a way to show up on screen (especially in the early episodes) and screw up to make you laugh. Sometimes, I think she even does it on purpose. There are endearing things about her personality that people often fail to see, but most of all, her smile has a tendency to make you forget why you were mad at all in the first place. And that's why I picked her as the love triangle winner. Why'd you pick Sheryl? Because you thought she looked good from the designs? Because you overlooked she had a harsh attitude and was as closed off as a girl's locked diary? Because you thought she was hot? That's the most shallow way to pick a character. I usually watch at least three episodes before picking a character and I watch their personalities. You state you did not do this. Therefore, a shallow decision was made.

I don't think my reasons are shallow. Also you probably want to check what character development is. Quote:

Wow, self-esteem issues..?
This coming from a teenager throwing a tantrum just because the FICTIONAL underdog character she supported didn't win the guy in the end. My mind is blown. And LMK, as Tak stated time and again. THIS is a PUBLIC FORUM. Anyone can reply or call out on your tantrum posts.

LMK.
We all know you HATE Sheryl and you're still sore and can't let go or accept the fact that your princess didn't win the triangle. But if you're going to continue this nonsense, put it in a relevant character thread or something. --- So guys, what did you think of Leon's balls in this movie?

I'm pretty sure what Thess was saying is that he could tell Sheryl was going to win the love triangle based on her character design...
Also LMK quite frankly I think you're letting your rage dominate and distort your view of events. I've seen it happen before in anime fandom and I do not think it makes for good analysis. |
