- age difference: Icky in both cases, but in Ranka's case, it's made worse by Ranka's lack of maturity, while in Sheryl's, it's mitigated by her adultness. Is it wrong, though? Debatable. - Work relationship: Well, Leon isn't leading some project that suddenly took over Sheryl's career. Not officially, anyway. If he were to, you know, get Sheryl in the same program as Ranka, I'd have the same objections. Here? I don't. Except maybe for his relationship with Sheryl's manager, which remains to define. So, for that matter, is the relationship between Sheryl and her manager... Anyway, in Sheryl's case, it's all very vague. Needs more data. In Ranka's case? It'd look to suspiciously like sexual harassment. - Infidelity: Same thing for both. Just because Kathy is trying to be unfaithful doesn't mean Leon should do the same. If they break up, though? It ceases to be relevant. Quote:
It's the same here. But not as flagrant, because Ranka isn't as young. The wrongness is more debatable. Quote:

Here, it's about statutory rape and sexual harassment. The lines are a bit blurrier. |

I don't know why you're arguing about this. I think anyone with Leon is equally disturbing--be it Sheryl or Ranka. Even Grace, a multi-persona cyborg seemed too good for him. That guy creeps me out. I wouldn't be surprised if he's an alien in human shell.
Back to Sheryl. I believe she's gonna pull through even if she finds out the truth from Grace. Going through betrayal and self-identity crisis will make her stronger. Like she said, her fame wasn't brought by luck but by hard work. That in itself defines who she is, regardless of her origin. For example, she said she hated Galaxy, but she still wanted to protect it. It doesn't matter that the ship she came from was a horrible place, she made the decision to protect it because she's that's just who she is. She's Sheryl Nome and Sheryl Nome defines herself by her decisions and actions, not her past and origin. I think that's a consistent theme in the series. |

Wow. That's boob grabbing without any inhibitions. I guess people's sense of privacy and inhibitions change in the future. I can see it's already changed from the past decade. But hey, if you got it, kudos to you. It makes Ranka's swimsuit picture on the VF look like an unclothed pikachu. |

Oh and Leon and Grace is the perfect match. He can finally have someone who can satisfy his yaoi doujinshi like S&M lust. Grace has the ability to look like a guy and yet be a woman not to mention throw him around easily. Must be Leon's dream come true. |

All right, big pictures coming up. Donīt get mad, mods! The multi-posting of the Ranshe Mei picture is to make sure everyone gets a picture vs. picture comparison without scrolling too much.
..... I hope this gives everyone a good comparison as to how the character designs of Sheryl and Ranshe Mei are very similar. Now, as to the why of that, we obviously donīt know. But I think it is a pretty long leap of faith to say that the production crew of Macross Frontier just screwed up on that account, seeing how they gave everyone else so distinctive designs. So, to reiterate it, my guess is still that Sheryl and Ranshe Mei ( or even Mao Nome ) are *somehow* related. Sheryl could well be a survivor of the 117th fleet, who got transferred to Macross Galaxy, where she landed on the streets. |

Sheryl has the same surename as Mao. She looks like Ranshe Mei. Coincidences happen in real life all the time, but in a tightly plotted series, they normally add up to a connection of some type. Itīs called "foreshadowing". |

what happened in her childhood doesn't mean anything. Also, dam man... Mao Nome's still alive? It was like 1999 when the attacks first started but for some reason it seems like such a long time. I still think she got married even though the dude in Macross Zero went to space with Sara Nome. Anyways, if Mao Nome is still alive, then Lynn Minmei can still be alive. So can Sara Nome and that dude. Also, that means the other two from Super Dimension are still alive. That means their son or daugther can be some1 from macross f
