And I also know what happens in episode 22.

Anyway, I know I’m pro-Ranka and while I’ve taken a tiny liking to Sheryl, I still prefer Ranka. Sure, Sheryl is stronger at the moment and arrows in 22 show Sheryl/Alto *coughpity*. That doesn’t mean it’s Ranka assured ending, ‘cause even if Sheryl dies Alto can decide she is the only woman for him and end of story.
Yet Sheryl already knows she was being used, how sucky her past was and that fame and glory wasn’t everything. Ranka was starting to learn, having a more complicated past and what I think it’s important to note, she feels incredible pain when killing Vajra. What would she do by staying in the fleet, sing until all Vajra die? -and Vajra seem to be reproductive creatures so it would be non-stop-battle,- I still think that Ranka thinks that by knowing her past she will be able to stop war or understand the Vajra to stop the war blabla.

Everyone have been so hard on her after 21. What could she do, she wasn’t strong enough to deal with AltoSheryl when she was finally going to tell her feelings, the song is from the heart and blah! She didn’t do it on purpose, and dunno. I don’t know why I don’t like Sheryl, really, I’m obviously more Sheryl in personality than Ranka -except the sluttines- and Ranka people who are too not confident sometimes get on my nerves. But this time, dunno, I was heartbroken and I get jealous easily so maybe when it comes to romance I’m more soft…
Yet I dislike how Sheryl has become some kind of saint while Ranka is good-for-nothing for trying to discover her past -which Sheryl discovered while going emo -with reasons- episodes ago.
Take into account Sheryl is dying, she has little time to think and she is strong enough to decide to “sacrifice” herself for everyone. Awesome. She needs to do something because she feels her life has been a lie, she has found love and if she can help in war she will, as I think everyone would if the person is going to die anyway.

I wonder though, if Alto is going or has already chosen Sheryl how will Ranka get to know…let’s hope AltoRanka anyway.
