Just wanted to say quickly that I suspect that the changes to Sheryl's character in the movie had little to do with dissatisfaction with her TV series character and a lot to do with serving the movie's needs. A lot of her personality flaws were toned down for instance because the movie version of events simply doesn't have the time to deal with them effectively. Besides, she was hardly the only character who was changed for the film version.
As for Kiss in the Galaxy -Kawamori approved of the project but I doubt he was involved in it all that deeply.
