| Nice to see Sieg is a good leader as well. Sieg And Rein make a good team. That one planet needs to get with the times lol maybe they will now since the Tyrant Maximillian got a coup d'état. |
| reminds me of julius caesar |
Luthimal said: Weird Roman fashion sense on the rebel planet. Everywhere else in Galactic Empire space has pretty consistent dress, and the same goes for the Free Planets Alliance, so I wonder why that was the only oddball. Perhaps they were newly admitted to the political world of space, which might also explain their juvenile understanding of space warfare. Yes, actually it looks a little bit forced in order to be clear about that fact that the leader can be stab by his own crew to be admissible as happened to Julio Cesar. Yet another good episode. |
| "If there comes a time when he won't listen to you, then that's the end of my little brother." Uh-oh, foreshadowing? Incidentally, I burst out laughing when I saw the "Engineering Ship" telop. That one was probably unnecessary... |

| As soon as that guy knelt down I was like, gut him. GUT HIM. hahaha total Caesar reference. Though it's kind of lame for Caesar since he was way more awesome than this slob. |

ZakuHead said: clannad4ever said: at least it was a quick fight yay :p and the fat pig was stabbed by his own allies,even by his hookers lol 4/5 I was kinda expecting an "et tu Brute?" when he got stabbed I was waiting for it also. The author seems to like referencing history. Be interesting to see what else is referenced. |
 |
| Poor Sieg, getting friendzoned and used by Annerose every time. edit: Lol dat Caesar reference. |

| JULIUS CAESARRRRR !!! |
| Cool episode. Was pretty interesting and liked that idiot at the end getting killed like a more hated Caesar ... |
 |
| Amazing how much a single episode can be better than the previous. This was a good one. Looking forward to more like this one, which I'm sure will happen. |
 |
| The whole Roman thing seemed a little odd considering how everywhere else the people seemed to be doing 19th-20th century European styles. I did enjoy watching that asshole die though. |
| That Maximilian Von Caeser (Castrop) was extremely entertaining. The Seiyu Hori, Hideyuki also does Captain Ginyu from DBZ, and all the expressions and "Souda" exclamations were exactly like what he did in DBZ, really made my day. On that note having all these epic VA from True Elite Anime like DBZ make this already phenomenal show even better. |
| This was probably my least favorite episode so far (that bad guy was just such an idiot), but it was still nice. I didn't understand how they destroyed the necklace thing either. I liked how it ended though, with everyone teaming up and killing the bad guy. |
| Another page to the history of the Fujaku. |
| Ok yeah that scene was a bit iffy on me, like was there any point to making it a parallel to the julius ceaser assassination even to the point of dressing them in roman attire past merely referencing that event for the sake of it. The series has clearly established it was smart in the previous episodes through legitimently well thought out events, we dont need some meaningless reference to real life historical events to have and try to pretend its smarter. Other than that, ok episode. Not as good as the 4 before it in my opinion. Next episode is back to good ol yang. |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| Dat Julius Caesar assassination reference tho. Was expecting the fella to say something like "you too ladies?" when they stabbed him lol. |
 |
| Nice development! Let's find out what's next. |
 |
| That was a cool strategy to take over that ship and without casualties as well. It was really interesting how they assassinated that commander from the inside. Why were they pretending to be Greek though? Is that just the culture of that country? |
 |
| Lol this episode was just funny. Everyone was just taking up knifes and stabbing him like he's some Piñata. Lmao! |
| I couldn't help but think "these hoes ain't loyal" when the girls went to stab the dude lol. And I feel the Julius Caesar parallelism was intended, but I don't understand why though?? Overall, a meh episode, though I did like Siegfried's development (if you could call it that I guess). |
 |
| I feel like this episode is foreshadowing a fall out between the duo of Reinhard and Kircheis in the future. Especially in the scene where Annerose speaks to him about her brother. |
 |
| I wish there was a better explanation on how that plan worked. Still a pretty good episode, with some foreshadowing. |
 |
| Loved that whole Julius Caesar inspired scene haha. |
 |
| Cool to see Siegried getting some development. Although that plan was pretty poorly explained. |
 |

| This definitely did feel like a side story, nonetheless the pacing is pretty good so far. Sieggy getting appointed to Vice-Admiral was pronounced so it was to be expected. To the battle of Iserlohn! Annerose's words to the Siegfried will be noted. 3.5/5 Episode. |
 |
| Cool , we get to see Siegfried in action , so where are the slow episodes ? I have been told that the beginning is rough and slow , till now the beginning is very good. Lesson Learned : People lie :3 |
| Given the right situation , the right story , anyone can be shaped into Snake. -Revolver Ocelot , MGS2 |
Akabawi said: Cool , we get to see Siegfried in action , so where are the slow episodes ? I have been told that the beginning is rough and slow , till now the beginning is very good. Lesson Learned : People lie :3 I think they compared the later episodes to the earlier ones and considered it to be slow? And they are probably not used to seeing an anime like this. Lots of talking, not much action as compared to other anime. |

| Siegfried! What a victory~ RediceRyan said: I wish there was a better explanation on how that plan worked. Very simply, the only problem is that such particles don't really exist, so it's hard to comprehend the whole situation. But basically, Siegfried ordered ships to disperse Zephyr particles all over that Necklace. And those particles are apparently explosive even without any oxygen, because I think that was a legit explosion, I don't know what else it could've been. The explosion was triggered by that fat guy's troops' firing, which happened because Siegfried ordered his troops to move closer to the enemy. I think. :) |
 |
| I couldn't help but lol when that fat bastard Kastrop got back stabbed. Especially when he was like "Ladies, come to me!" and they pick up dining knives. It's as Reinhard says, Kircheis is a good man. I had a good feeling about him ever since he'd proven to be a commander who understood his subordinates. Good to see that he isn't simply the sidekick. |
 |
| Siegfried wins the day with technobabble...what a genius? Or, like with Reinhard in the first two episodes, he just seems to have a basic grasp of the capabilities at his disposal. It makes them seem competent, not ingenious, and their lessers seem unbelievably incompetent. I look a little askance at how much time is spent with the rebel lord since he's a pretty bland character but the whole situation ties into Annerose's fear by illustrating what happens to those who try to upend the status quo for their own purposes and fail. Reinhard is much smarter than this fool but if he fails in his ambitions maybe he'll also get torn apart by his allies. Besides Siegfried they're all just hanging onto him because he's been a winner. |
| lol the Julius Caesar reenactment there. and it seems like Phezzan is intentionally doing what they can to keep the war balanced to draw it out as long as possible since they are profiting from doing business on both sides. |

| Gotta love the fact that even the women joined in on the "stabbing session" xD I won't lie though, Siegried's composure is kinda eerie at times. |
 |
| That was actually a pretty damn good plan. Very good series so far... 4/5 |
| Ancient Greek temples, people dressed like ancient Greeks, whip, daggers... am I still watching a sci-fi show? 5 episodes in, but not really convinced about the quality of this series yet... That 'Necklace' planetary defence should be an easy prey to any long-range weapon system. I don't think it'd take a strategic mastermind to figure that out. |
| Julius gets stabbed lel.. how original. |
 Three things cannot be long hidden.. ...the s u n, the m oo n, and the tr u th. |
| Wow, it sure is Ides of March in here. |
| Another fantastic episode, Sieg handled the mission really well that idiot Maximilian deserved those stabs. 5/5 |
| There is nothing impressive about using a new weapon that no one knows how to defend against. This episode did nothing to show that Kirchies is actually competent as a commander, only to show he is a kind man. |
| Anyone want some more caesar allegories? Anna is worried about her brother. Dunno how this will go. Mixed feelings. Let's see if the next episode is exciting. This episode was boring with the Zephyr particles. |
 Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate. I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was bound to lead me to a slow death. |
