They aren't even paying attention to her then. Ditching Alto like she did was her proudest moment, nay, proudest moment of anyone in the series to date.

Actually, most of the forums I go to show the majority of people favoring Sheryl, hence my question to ya.

I'll shut up, now.

I believe she can find her own true song and true feelings."
Why are you assuming that she must let go of Alto to find her way ? I don't know but I completely agree with you here. (I read your other post and yes she must find her own passion now , you're right)
Yes, i agree.
She focused on him so much that she didn't know her songs didn't reach him like they should, back at episode 19/20.
She disappointed me back then at episode 19- 20 i said it but I also already said that
Ranka must let him go and if Alto doesn't come back, he never meant to be so....
With Alto's words of protecting Ranka i think your argument here, is not founded now :
There was no development for Alto x Ranka, no development for their troubles and turmoils, no development for their feelings; anything that Alto may have felt for her prior to that, whether it was puppy love of physical awareness, simply couldn't survive the future events that came. Period. Again, I'm sorry to say that it was a spark snuffed out.

There was if not, he would have said he wanted to protect Sheryl .
She is not the one who make him joined SMS like people said here but Ranka was the one.
she did have a great impact on him
no development for their troubles and turmoils ? No, since he didn't argue with her except in episode 21 but it was because of the vajra(again) ,unlike him and Sheryl , Ranka and him don't have that kind of love- hate relationship, right but was it of use for sheryl ? I don't think so.
no development for their feelings Episode 13 was the time we saw them gazing at each other and after that we saw a couple of episode when Alto blushed around her.
Even in episode 10 when he knew he would have to kiss her, he did react like a person who has such feelings towards another, not in a brother-sister way .
anything that Alto may have felt for her prior to that, whether it was puppy love of physical awareness, simply couldn't survive the future events that came

Yes he couldn't prevent her depart and his " clash" with Ranka about the vajra if this is what you're talking about , but he really didn't understand her back then.
He doesn't understand her anymore, that's why he said i will kill her.
He even said before that, "It's true... that maybe I had been running up to now. Pretending I didn't notice a lot of things."
He is talking about Ranka here.
He wasn't so dense after all. He pretended he didn't notice...
This is going to be epic crisis, epic !

She has to let go of her love for Alto, because it's not a love for him as a person. It's just a crush. You see her trying to get to know him at their last meeting? She knows her feelings weren't for the right reasons. She tried to start from scratch like a pair of adults would, but he wouldn't hear her out about what she was about to do, so she just had to leave him there.

Sheryl's beating Ranka in 90+ % of the polls/forums all over the world, including in Japan. Not sure where you're getting your information from...

I'm fairly certain what he said was sarcasm.

Allow me to enlighten you, the latest poll on 2ch (which is a stronghold for Japanese moe-fans) showed Sheryl with more than 300 lead over Ranka in a recent poll. Thats saying something, when Sheryl is actually beating a moe character on a moe forum. Other polls on Japanese boards indicate the same. Ranka only wins in the "who is the most annoying character in Macross F" category.

The Japanese fan arts also tend to prefer AruSheri arts more than AruRan ones (a 9:1 ratio). Sheryl arts also dominate in the single category. These results can easily be found on Japanese artboards.

Sheryl's fandom elsewhere also shows a strong lead over Ranka. Chinese forums for example, are overwhelmingly in supportive of Sheryl. So I am sorry, your claim just isn't true in the least.

Really? That's because there is none. That's why you can't count the number of avatars on one hand

I always found Ranka fans to be quite clear and respectable. Rankafags, on the other hand...

Damn Ranka shipping goggles.

You know, wolfboy may be being sarcastic... but some other rabid Ranka fans aren't.

/facepalm
