Mele:
For those of you who don't like Ranka, why exactly is this? I'm genuinely curious since she's mai waifu.
relic2279:
It's not that I don't like her, I just didn't care for her. She turns all emo in the middle of the show. And teenagers being emo is so overplayed anymore. I'm just getting kind of sick of it.
Don't read unless you've watched the show:
(click to show/hide)Sheryl is all dying and such, yet she mows on through like a champ. Ranka was like oh, woe is me. HARDEN THE FUCK UP RANKA. :D

I honestly liked her for the first .... like, first episode? Then after getting to know her character I didn't really get much interest in her, and as Relic explains ... she cries a lot. Ranka does have a great voice. I don't want anyone to get me wrong. She has a clear/pure voice for singing. Just for the record, her other negative thing is the freaking flopping dog-like-ears hair. ANNOYING to look at it.
Why I picked Sheryl? Does no one notice the vibration in her voice? To what I heard, it's one of the difficult stages as a singer to achieve. Listen to "What 'bout my star?". She's mature, tsundere (who the fuck doesn't like tsundere girls? Seriously!), hair is the only unique hair color I've seen comparing all anime series I've seen; shiny, reflective, colorful, long. Mature mind and a freaking mature body. Her song lyrics and her voice are awesome. And she's endured a lot more shit than Ranka, thus far (I'm deep into episode 17 right now). I'm a fan of Sheryl. It's another reason why I put a bit of extra effort in the ava/sig I made for newy (dual elements, dual colors to create pink/yellow/gold/red/etc, selective color, increased color depths for ava and sig and re-did some colors as well, the font was hands down one of the hardest to nail down in the banner and to make it readable, couple of other duplicate layers, and many other things).
We're not talking about voice actresses and singers. This is purely based on characters in the anime.
newy:
Ranka's hair is like that because of her heritage, just FYI^^ Zentradi can move their hair according to their emotional state.
I don't hate Ranka. Her appearance is just that of a little sister whereas Sheryl is much more appealing. Like Tatusjin said she's so much more mature in as well character as physically. And I like the songs made for Sheryl more than for Ranka :)
Aneroph:
It's alright, you guys can say what you really mean. You like Sheryl because she has a lot of ecchi scenes, and as a character she is forced upon the audience as a sexual being. Ranka has almost no sexual appeal as a character for a reason ;) You're supposed to overlook her. Everyone in the series does.
