I liked how Sheryl's version of "Aimo" got followed by "Do you remember love?"

Also, the earrings that Sheryl thinks is a keepsake of her mother. Though we still don't know if she had them from before, or if Grace passed them on to her claiming to be a friend of her late mother to win her trust. As for her hair, she could simply be styling it according to what she thinks her late mother looks like (if all her info is from Grace). So, not _entirely_ baseless speculation, but still a long shot. Last edited by glyph; 2008-08-09 at 11:46. |

Never mind that Ranshee does not share the last name of Nome, nor is she a pacific islander. Ranshee is clearly Chinese, or at least her name is.
The best guess we have here is that Sheryl was probably adopted by Mao (or just named after her), and given the last name of Nome. Other than that, she bears no relations whatsoever to Ranshee. - Tak

I am more and more sure of that blonde guy is Ranka's brother, since it is know he is close to her. But if you look at a family relationships, being a father would be really.... odd, so only brother is left. Sheryl apparently got pwned pretty hard this episode.

They look very identical. I posted enough comparison shots in the Sheryl thread to show that. This is a story, told by people, not real life. "Coincidences" like this donīt happen in stories, if they are well told. Quote:
As for Brera, he doesnīt even remember that Ranka is his sister, if you look back at episode 13, when he was flying down to the Vajra queen. To be honest, I donīt see how Sheryl can be the daughter of Ranshe, neither, because we know that Ranshes family was Ranka, Brera, her husband and herself. But Iīm really pickled by the obvious connection that Sheryl looks like Ranshe and has the same surname as Mao Nome. As I said, this is a written show, coincidences like that shouldnīt happen, unless they mean something. |

Maggy, look, Ranshe has a Chinese name, Sheryl... does not. Sheryl bears the name Nome because she was probably adopted by the ol' doctor herself, nor is she a clone of Ranshe, who clearly had a family that did not include Sheryl.

Ranka "Lee" doesn't have Ranshe's surname either. Neither does Brera "Starne" (if he really is her brother, which is slightly more doubtful now). |

Exactly like my stuff, but I got the pictures and the weird name coincidences ( which didnīt even include Ranshes name having She-ryl and Ran-ka in it). BTW, since when is "Ranshe" a chinese name? "Mei" I get immediately, but "Ranshe" sounds about as chinese as "Gurke". |

I also mention she was probably adopted or something. Of course her name is not real. She named the kid after Grace picked her up.
Because if Ozma had to register her as a sister, what do you think he has to do? Quote:

yeah, I noticed the Vajra in the pic a couple of pages ago. Probably the same one Alto spotted in the lab on Global. Before the most we knew that the research fleet was experimenting on Vajra. This pic does confirm that the v-type virus and Vajra are related somehow.
Hmmm? I have yet to see anything that points to Brera not being her brother. Ozma's reaction to Brera recently just seemed to confirm it yet again. I assume Brera Sterne is a false name given to him by Grace & Co.

the persons featured on this picture are: Ranshe Mei, her face is not that clear A small guy that looks allot like brera sterne and the harmonica, this small girl called Ranka, some guy who we don't know what his name is but he is Ranka's father. A dog And no sheryl Episode 13 14:04 - 14:16 we see Ranka lieing on a bed, asking her mother if this song is from Earth. We see harmonica guy/Brera and Ranshe. Again, no Sheryl. Episode 18, 11:16: we see Ozma hold up a picture with: Ranshe Mei, A small guy that looks allot like brera sterne and the harmonica, this girl called Ranka, some guy who we don't know what his name is but he is Ranka's father. Ozma's finger (probably covering up the dog) And no sheryl These pictures and memories were from before the vajra attack. So no way that she could have been taken to galaxy as a survivor. Besides, 1. Age. Sheryl is 1 year older then Ranka. How old is Brera? 17? Next crazy theory would be that Sheryl is Brera's twin. What are the odds of another Kira Cagalli happening again with the same male voice actor? 2. Ozma knew Mao, knew Ranshe, took in her little girl. He would have known if Sheryl was part of the family, he would have known they had another older girl, and he would certainly have known how she looks like. |

OTOH, Ozma didnīt recognize Brera until he saw the harmonica, so who knows whom and what he remembers from the 117th himself. Itīs of course possible that Grace had some plastic surgery done on Sheryl, to make her look like Ranshe Mei. Though Sheryl didnīt look too different ( in the context of her circunstances back then, of course ) in the shots we see of her as a street urchin. |

Could she be Mao Nome's granddaughter? (and Ranshe perhaps Nome's married daughter..thus Ranka and Sheryl would be cousins?)
Or the more likely case, Grace isn't telling us (or Sheryl) everything.

Speaking of which, the earrings were provided by Grace, who probably installed new memories to Sheryl. Otherwise, I doubt she already had those earrings as her flashbacks shown her absent with them. Or if they are indeed from Sheryl's mom, her mom wouldn't be Grace, and definitely not Ranshe. I don't think it'd be difficult to think of her as an adoptive child of Mao, who bestowed her a last name. I do not understand why people would relate Ranshe to Sheryl. It does not work at all. I mean, obviously people are making a lot less connections between Elmo and a certain NUNS Supreme Commander. - Tak

1. People want Sheryl to be more "special" then she already is. 2. This series has a pretty good conspiracy plot line, so people are looking for angles everywhere. Even if it doesn't exist except in their imaginations. |
