And you did not answer my last question. Therefore your argument is moot. After all, the movies were not made only for those who had previously seen the series, now were they? Right, because the characters' pasts are not a part of the movies' storyline. And it's not like even a single one of them had extensive changes to their background, right? So, please, drop it. You're only making this worse on yourself.

It honestly has nothing to do with "her life after the incident." It has to do with what happened "during the incident" or "before it." And Ranka doesn't remember those aspects and therefore is lost when people tell her about herself. It's not her fault. She was just a kid and witnessing her family die before her eyes is probably the most horrifying thing one can go through. I give her a good thumps-up for forgetting the incident and actually living instead of deciding to die blaming herself (like she did in Ep.24). Quote:

A character's background can be made apart from the storyline. The storyline only creates more change for the character over the period of time. If a characters past was based on the storyline, then basically you'd be saying the "character never grew" or is still an infant. To give a character no background before the storyline is to make it an "android" or an "emotionless being." A character has to have a background before the storyline in order to flourish. So therefore, Alto, Sheryl, and Ranka's background all came before the storyline. Ranka's didn't change much except meeting Alto sooner and have possibly known him for a while. Sheryl's didn't change really except meeting Alto for that short period. Alto's didn't change at all with the exception of meeting Sheryl for that short time and meeting Ranka earlier and befriending her. Their pasts (in speech and flashbacks) was not much different from the series. Which, Kawamori already said that you could watch episodes 1-15 and then jump into the second movie because the characters attitudes, pasts, and whatnot are the same, it's only the storyline (plot and ending) that is different. Or had you not paid attention to how similar their characters were from the Ep.15 point?

Yes, she does pull herself together and stands in her own feet but emotional commitment causes need. Sheryl is not a robot, she has feelings that she chooses to act on to; if she is independent or not, that is irrelevant. Eeer, not sure what you're arguing at here? |

Simply put Alto and Sheryl are destined to be together, no matter the universe. Movie!Ranka had best chance, but no luck. She still had the best concerts though. |

Given all that it's logical to think that his reason for going to Island Three was the one he told Sheryl with such intensity after he spotted one of the Islands through the window of the train the two of them were on -that there was a place he really wanted to take her. Sorry for pushing the Island Three thing so hard but I'd let the matter drop during a past discussion with LMK this time around I'm inclined not to. The evidence is for Alto being eager to show Sheryl Island Three and against him spending the whole time wishing he was looking for Ranka. |

I just keep with this because there's no point in showing Alto seeing Ranka boarding the train if it was for nothing; that is the reason why I liked that in the movie Alto took Sheryl there for no other reason than to have fun. |

While he's seen from the side and they don't show him following Ranka onto the train, Mikhail is clearly in view when Alto spots Ranka.
As for a reason to include that scene -can you think of any quicker way to show the audience how Ranka ended up on Island Three later on? |

I will check about that later, but if they were doing that it would have worked better if they put it as a passing coincidence; you know when a group of characters don't see that they just passed each other, that is why i still think that Alto went there because Ranka was going there.

Right. How in the world did we get to talking mostly about the TV SERIES?
And I wasn't even talking about 'setting', but rather about storytelling technique... Quote:
Apologies for opening that can of worms, guys. m(_ _ )m edit: the sad thing is...she actually made one general - VERY general - point I agree with. ==== Moving on, I'm putting aside the director's interview for the moment, since a certain controversial article has finally been verified. Although I won't be posting the scan, all the text within these 「brackets」 is noted to be from Kawamori himself (the Re: subheadings are mine). I've also corrected the mistakes I spotted in my original translation - if there are others, please let me know Kawamori's comments in Animedia, May 2011 issue, in an article called "After tea, it's time to solve the mysteries..." Spoiler for Japanese text and English translation:
===== On a related note, here's the full segment about the ending from the interview with Ebata Risa (character design) x Kawamori Shouji x Koyama Kariko (mangaka) in the 3rd volume of Sheryl~Kiss in the Galaxy~, p.175 Spoiler for length:
===== And... Spoiler for my comments...:
