I take it that you didn't watch the Nadesico movie yet - without trying
to give too much away, let's just say Akito change a lot while Yurika is
still your typical airhead.... I really like Ruri, though, because she's
like a "better" version of Rei from EVA - in Nadesico, Ruri learned what
emotion is about, and how precious it is (as shown when she helped Akito in
cleaning the virus instead of just erasing the whole system). I really like
the way Ruri acted toward Akito in the movie...

They try really hard - sort of like Star Trek...
