Yeah, Sheryl and Ranka were both supposedly just opposites of one another, but without any one of them being the primary emphasis of the triangle. As the series progressed, Sheryl tipped the balance of the pairing, and suddenly fans in Japan jumped on the AruSheri-boat, ignoring Kawamori's original intent for Ranka.

It also did not help when Sheryl not only shines as a character, but characters in association with her shine as well. Alto would have been a pretty dull character without Sheryl by his side, seriously.

It would not be too far off to say that Sheryl indeed carried the show.
