The SherylxGalaxy scenario is a what-if and a very credible ending for Sheryl. Who said that once Sheryl goes back to Galaxy to support the people she wouldn't find a new love? Anything goes by then. It doesn't have to be Alto. Here we are again imagining another negative emotional condition for her. Are we really fans of her?
Quote:
I'm aware Ranka has her family friends with her supporting her and all that plus having Alto is an overkill, but the show doesn't even point to Sheryl feeling alienated or anything like that with her current status. There are no hints. What the show is pointing at is Ranka realizing her feelings for Alto and feeling alienated by him. Why is this? Because Ranka takes up most of the focus, thus her side is heard more. The way Sheryl gets defended in this forum, it's like the story is making Sheryl look like the underdog and Ranka is not. Episode 11 clearly made Ranka to look like the likable character here. Despite our opinions on Sheryl deserving Alto more, the current story thinks otherwise. |

Ranka just isn't really on the radar as a person Sheryl cares to relate to. |

Otherwise... This thread is awesome! But... I give up on Sheryl. It's all about Alto + Cathy Glass. Cougary goodness and 2 triangles all f'ed up at the same time. |

your ending for Sheryl is very depressing ani_d. I really hope the writers aren't going to go your route.
as if I really didn't feel bad enough for Sheryl in the end of 6 when she told Alto how alone she was on Galaxy... For her to go back to that life alone. Ugh. |

Latest Sheryl blog entries.
2008-06-18 Title: ...I was tricked. My sense of direction is perfect. When I was on Galaxy, I was as good as any guy. You know the saying, right? Women don't look at maps. (Interesting since it's the guys that this is quality is attributed to here in the US. Well that and not asking for directions.) Anyway, who was it that first said this?! Isn't it just that the girls around them coincidentally did not look at maps? That's right, one time a TV producer gave me a ride home in his DA-CHAM after work, that was the worse. Since his nonstop talking was annoying I was a little spiteful as the navigator so we got completely lost. The reason for that was because we didn't make the U-turn. I really wanted to show him. But it was game over. I got off right there. Really, I was better off not remembering that. So, when I came to Frontier I've gotten lost so many times. The great Sheryl Nome has! This is a lifetime first! "No uncertainty! Doing anything I am able to!" For me, whose motto is this to have this happen! Why I couldn't recognize any of the roads no matter what. This was a shock. Quite. Then I found out... ...in order not to make tourists on Frontier bored, it seems that the townscape changes periodically!!!? No wonder that, even though I travel the same street over and over, houses and shops that I had never seen kept appearing...I was dumbfounded. Really... ...you tricked me, Frontier!! Just kidding. It's quite wonderful, Frontier. A very stimulating [entertainer]. (I think it's entertainer, but not sure since it's "tentaateinaa" in katakana. I assume that someone typed ten instead of en by mistake. Damn katakana...) I'm quite taken with it. Sheryl April 2, 2059 Title: Kiss...like... (Kiss is like spelled backwards in Japanese) "Like" and "kiss," I wonder why they are inversely linked? I suddenly thought this. Can it be that something that makes us think, "How boring!!!!" can also make us feel wonderful?? I tried it out. picture caption: This is the "jerig" that I was fond of last year. (no idea what jerig is, if anyone has any clue, please let me know) Sheryl July 15, 2059 2008-06-22 Title: School is. It's just as interesting as I thought it would be!! School is really interesting, right!? I am especially taken with the rooftop. Well, I have memories of diving, but I can understand why people have the desire to pick things up when seeing them from overhead. Seeing students going to and from school, thoughts such as "those two are going out" or "they have worries" come to me quite since I can understand the situation quickly. Is this what they call people watching? It has never been an interest of mine, but the label [Hobby: People watching] might not be so bad. Sheryl May 25, 2059 |

Wow ani_d, it sounds like you prefer the idea of having Sheryl eat sh*t and die would be the best course of action. How sad, how sad.
Sheryl, as it is obviously clear by now, put up a front in front of everyone. In reality, she has major weaknesses only to be barely compensated by her pride. Thus her gradual openness to Alto became a focal point in Frontier, and a very welcoming development for her character. It'd be dreadfully sad if the writers went by your proposal and to have Sheryl end up lonely by herself in the galaxy at the end of the show. - Tak |

And I don't know about weaknesses or supposed insecurities. Mostly she just ignores people unless she wants to belittle them in some way. Alto's simply the exception for whatever stupid reason someone can come up with, and it's hard to say if he's actually better off. Quote:

Sheryl is far from perfect; but she is a badass character. You're selling her (and the show really) short if you're only looking that deep. Of course, if in fact it's going to be a Sheryl ending both her and Alto are going to have to figure out how to open up. Or substitute sex. I will give you one thing tho... If we were talking about Alto's perspective, you'd be dead on right. Pre-birthday present, anyway. |

Seems like there's a lot of extremists on the board.
Thats no fun. Anyways from what we know about the upcoming episodes, they're going to be focusing more on Ranka for now. With this development, I expect the Love Triangle to be going full blow soon. Honestly, later we'll see the story shift back to Sheryl or have it balance out a little. It's still to early to make real assumptions... but I'm a bit of an Alto x Sheryl fan myself. That being said I don't mind Ranka if Sheryl's given a decent ending. Same feeling goes towards Sheryl in my book... after all, I like Ranka as well.

Wow Ani_d, your latest posts have hurt your stance far more than I or any Sheryl fan ever could. Your good losers ending for Sheryl is her going back to Galaxy by herself to rebuild it with its citizens? lmfao... if that's the best you could come up with you should know Ranka is screwed since Frontier's most popular character isn't getting a crappy ending like that.

You're like the wrestling mark who goes "Oh yes (insert face challenger) pinned (heel champion) in a tag match on the last raw before the ppv, now he's going to win!!" while the smark (sup, me lol) just rolls his eyes because he knows the heel is going to win after that. I'm too dumbfounded by most of what you typed to reply to it and the other stuff would just be a pointless waste of time to address, Kawamori himself could start posting and you would disagree. Kawamori - Sheryl wins Ani_d - But it's not consistent mr kawamori and you bastardized Sheryl and ranka and alto talk on their mobile phones all the time it's so cute ^__^ Last edited by Westlo; 2008-06-24 at 07:33. |

I'm a new fan of Macross Frontier and I really like AltoxSheryl chemistry >___< It's a refreshing pairing in anime nowadays because it felt so natural and interesting.
About Ranka, IMO she wants Alto most but not the one that cares about him most. She's constantly seeking for comfort and encouragement in him but never actually gives him any support or bothers to find out what he thinks and wants. Even her birthday gift proved it: unlike Sheryl who actually thought for a gift that would suit Alto the most, Ranka went for the most typical gift for a schoolgirl crush - homemade cookies and her concert ticket as a thank for his support. So, who do you think that made more efforts here? Sorry Ranka, I prefer the more mature type ^^ Furthermore, Ranka already has a brother that cares about her, a (girl)friend that almost worships her and many more friends plus a blossoming career; the girls has almost everything except Alto while Sheryl has likely nothing but her stardom. So, I say that Sheryl needs the guy more than Ranka. |

Why can't it be a good ending, Westlo? Accepting a good Sheryl end like that must mean you are a true Sheryl fan, as you can take whatever end Sheryl could end up with, if she wouldn't be paired with Alto. ani_d has showed much more tolerance in that she/he can agree to both a Ranka or a Sheryl ending for Alto, which you seem to negate any kind of proof that there could be a possible Ranka ending, or try to "disprove" that a Ranka end cannot happen, even if tehre are hints and instances that Alto hime could possibly like Ranka more than just being a friend or act like her big brother. Also you seem to forget that Kawamori "discovered" Ranka in episode 10. So that MUST mean she has Kawamori's SEAL of APPROVAL!

I have stated time and time again that there is a high chance of a Ranka ending, ani_d otoh says she cannot see a Sheryl ending period and thinks there will not be a single Sheryl centric episode from here on out. You tell me who has less tolerance, who's more biased and who's more narrow minded.

Now, if you were to ask who put the most thought into it, you might have a case. But really, it's not like Ranka had the power to fulfil Alto's wish. |

Because based on what the show is showing us so far, there is no hope or there is little chance that it could happen. It had always focused on Ranka and Alto a lot. And the only episodes that we have seen that focused on Sheryl and Alto's romance...as in an episode dedicated to the development of that pairing, we have none. Whenever Sheryl is with Alto, Ranka is always in the background. Or is part of the circumstances that lead into it or something. When it is with Alto and Ranka, there's no Sheryl that led to that situation.

Oh god there's now two of them, I knew you wouldn't answer my question too lmao.. You guys are utter idiots for now seeing the possibilities of a Sheryl ending. If you can keep your fangirl squeals down in episode 13 you might finally see some. Are you guys going to cry out Canvas 2 at the end of the series? It gets misused so much why not!?
