I'm one of the few who happen to like Shinn and they are nothing alike at all. Alto is frustrated at times, but he's not yelling and screaming and blaming everyone else for his problems while hanging on to the past. If anything Alto runs away from the past. About the only thing they have in common in their total failure to protect anything.

I don't get why people want him to decide anything right now. Too damn soon for my liking. I also agree with Swamp that she's probably going to push him away more then tell him anything.

More like Kamille Vidan, then? What with his hair-trigger sensitivity about his girly looks/girly name, and renacting the helmet shattering Waverider crash in the Lion OP.

Also, his talent for picking a fight with/pissing off other cast members and getting decked as a result.

The running list so far...

His father
Ozma
Mikhail
Brera
Sheryl

Strangely enough, Alto's fight with Sheryl usually makes the latter... a lot healthier.

Alto's what 17? How many 17 year old guys would even want to be locked into these heavy handed life scenarios he has to deal with?

I'm not just talking about the triangle either. Add to that he's got a massive inferiority complex cause he was most well known for playing a woman :P.

I'm hoping in 19 we get to see some hope for Sheryl, her telling Alto about her illness is gonna affect him in even a worse way. There's literally nothing he can do. With Ranka at least he can pretend that he can protect her, but with Sheryl he's no doctor/scientist.

How much longer this is getting painful....

[bkg9990]

I soo want to see this episide. More Sheryl again.

I can almost forget Ranka :3

No matter how much of a Sheryl fanboi you are you can't wish the disappearance of Ranka because without her the triangle would not exist and without her Sheryl would not be in the situation she is in. Hence all the delicious drama and angst fanboi thrive would not exist without Ranka. So Ranka can't disappear. Get used to it.

This is why I tend to like the Senpai characters more so in these shows. They've already got their heads on straight, and know what they want.

At least it's still airing

it's not uncommon to cancel a broadcast altogether because of a sport event

Im not saying Ranka to disappear. I was just saying that the past episodes we're all Ranka themed. Eversince she got her "Idol" status, its all been focused on Ranka. Im just happy its Sheryl's turn.
