Ah of course! Because Sheryl Nome is Sheryl Nome!

Well Alto will be filling that role quite soon.

The style seems to be a blend. From Nami Tamaki's Believe to Ayumi Hamasaki's Evolution and Real Me.

man, I totally didn't notice that Vajra specimen behind them in that pic. Yeah, I think this solidifies that the Vajra have something to do with the v-type virus.

I keep saying that! Now, itīd be interesting to know how Sheryl would have gotten to be a street urchin, if that connection pans out.

I'm still holding out hope that Sheryl is the daughter of Mao's estranged daughter and Mao sent the earings to Sheryl's mom.

I know you did, saw the same thing when she first apeared to Ranka in the mothership

But this was a better screenshot. Like i said, i think only half the story Grace tells is true. street urchin part is made up, to keep her in the dark about her mother. Thus cutting of (or at least trying to) any other possbile steps for Sheryl about finding out about her herritage and true relation to the virus and the Vajra

Another question just came to mind.
The grace on the picture, is that the 'real' grace? or is that already the Schizo-cyborg Grace that we know?

Do you have a better close up of Mao? She doesn't look that old from here; like she's still in her mid-twenties.

For some reason I still can't shake the feeling that I think I heard Lion somewhere before. Strange......

Probably it's the real Grace. It was said she was born in SDF-04, and we can assume that Ranshe also lived there since there was a photo of her family.

Btw, "schizo" does not mean what you think it means

another wackjob theory of mine, but what if the V virus turns you into a Vajra.

that would be amusing

cylons, evil cyborgs, Aliens, giant space bugs and now an infectious virus

is Frontier trying to pay homage to every sci fi horror trope out there?

Actually, I wondering about something out of Alien. That the reason Grace wants a fleet of "normal" humans is (perhaps) that the bigger Vajra become that way by combining with humans. And that's what's needed to make the fold quartz that will "shrink" the galaxy. So Frontier's just going to become a factory...

Of course, the interesting thing would be if Grace knows those "hitchhikers" are there (she may even have put them there). Either way, I expect at some point that her plans will unravel - that her perceived control over events will be just an illusion.

I don't know about you guys, but last episode I was disappointed in what I thought would be the new OP-had nothing but Ranka Ranka and...Ranka. Ranka overkill.

And I don't like Ranka very much.

Not to mention the fact that it didn't even reflect what the show is about!

I'm glad they've got the real OP going now-so much better and it at least tips us off at what the show is going to be about.

I wonder if that Aimo song will be sung by Sheryl in the near future.

I'm a little confused here now.

So pretty much all of Frontier's weapons are useless against the Vajra? Does that mean the Vajra will become immune to Frontier's battle cannon then? I just don't see how Frontier will survive even with Ranka (and it's not going to last either).

It seems that Leon wants them to use all of their most powerful weapons to make the Vajra stronger.

First, the Sheryl clone theory is spread like wildfire, only to be shot down.

Now Sheryl's mom theory? Sigh.

I think its the real Grace too. I think Grace is one of the survivors of the 117th fleet, but somehow she received some life threating injures and was turned to a cyborg.

Grace = Manager, Secret Agent, Psycho, and now Research Scientist
