Never mind that Sheryl's excitement was genuine when she thought up the birthday present, never mind that she immediately called him out to offer him the gift, never mind that Ranka already offered her birthday gift it just so happens Alto was away, everyone keeps moaning about how evil Sheryl swoops in to snatch Alto-hime away from Ranka's birthday present when they conveniently forget that Alto has chose to accept Sheryl's present.
Please don't forget, people: Alto is still part of the triangle. |

Wasn't this supposed to be Alto's birthday? Wouldn't it be even worse had Sheryl had denied Alto the opportunity to exercise his own choice on his special day? The problem is that people are looking for someone to blame. Just as Sheryl fans can't possibly blame Ranka for Sheryl's illness, I don't see how Ranka fans could ever blame Sheryl for Ranka's misfortunes. Sometimes bad things happen to good people. But if we let our frustration spill over, then we run the risk of being unable to enjoy both characters to the fullest. Quote:

Alto = Minmay. He's just messing things up until the inevitable RankaXSheryl ending.

One thing is for sure though: Sheryl knew Ranka's planning to invite Alto on her first live. Take that as you will. We don't get to peek inside Sheryl's head, that's why we get all these suspicions against her. Frankly, I don't blame them since there's no way to prove her innocence as well as her guiltiness regarding this matter. For now. Quote:

What was it, then?

So now you have that information. How could you use it to act in a way such that you don't step on anyone's toes? What's the appropriate course of action here? Last edited by Swampstorm; 2008-07-03 at 01:02. |

Sheryl could have used her sickness as an excuse to push back her own trip to Gallia 4...
Note: I don't blame her for failing to see how bad it was, or inviting Alto. Just saying, she wasn't completely without alternatives. Last edited by Anh_Minh; 2008-07-03 at 07:11. |

I think one of the main reasons that she didn't push it back was because she was pretty damned excited about going to a place with a real sky both for Alto and herself (similar to how I can force myself to watch bad raws because of my addiction to Frontier ). She had not even seen any natural landscapes on the other bioplants during her tour, let alone a actual planet with a real sky. I can easily see her forgetting everything else and trying to push herself through the fever for this and for her other motive in going, to check out the rumor of survivors from Galaxy. From everything that we've been shown, Sheryl is anything but a quitter and it took an illness that literally prevented her from standing to stop her. Which bodes very well for triangle fireworks from here on out.

If pushing back a concert date actually was as easy as calling in sick for work, though (which it isn't), then Ranka could have done the same as well. But she didn't call in to see what Alto's plans were in the first place, either; she just left him a message to be there, at the last minute. Had she made plans in advance and gotten his feedback first, then he wouldn't have been forced to leave her a message that he couldn't. But I'm glad that you're trying to think of alternatives, though. Still, it's just one of those situations where you can't please everyone at once, and it just isn't even your decision to begin with. It's unfortunate that she should get the flak for it. |

Ranka wasn't sick, and Ranka isn't the Sheryl Nome. Indeed, it was Sheryl's duty to call in sick. She messed up, as she recognized herself. (Also, an event in a small backwater is much easier to push back than a concert at a big hall in a city. It involves much fewer people. )
Yes, placating the mutineers would have been a problem. But it's not like collapsing in front of them made the situation better, did it? And yes, Ranka's time management leaves much to be desired. |

I may be wrong, but this is my hunch:
That Macross in Galia 4 isn't the original SDF-1 Macross. It probably came from Megaroad 01, which contained a battle section that closely resembled SDF-1 Macross and a separate city section. A battle probably occurred in Galia 4 between Megaroad and some enemy we don't know yet. They left the battle section of Megaroad to fight off the enemy allowing the rest of Megaroad (the city section) to flee even further into space. That seems to be the logical explanation, cuz SDF-1 Macross was on Earth in Macross Plus, just 19 years before Frontier. Also, there is something in Galia 4 that reacts to Ranka's singing, which could imply this this same thing reacted to Minmay's singing a long long time ago when Megaroad was in the same area. Another more farfetched idea is that when the bird thing (Aphos?) flew off in Macross Zero, it took Macross with it. Possible but very unlikely. Last edited by Bakafool; 2008-07-03 at 12:38. |

I can't say I understood the point of this rather... erm... pointless claim. To use 'laughter' as a gauge for 'affection' between Alto and the girls would not be a wise thing to do, especially in the world of Macross. However, seeing how you have a track record of reading too much into something and then forcing some kind of a belief system onto us, allow me to slightly enlighten you why laughter as a claim for affection might not do you any good. Macross Hikaru laughed with Minmei, but never once with Misa Hayase. Guess who he ended up with? Macross II Hibiki laughed with Ishtar, but never once with Silvi. Guess who he ended up with? Macross Zero Shin laughed with Mao, but never once with Sara. Guess who he ended up (MIA) with? Nope, I am not convinced. Ja, verstehen? - Tak |
