lol everyone wants a piece of Fan ;)

it was a good episode. i like the pace and it is being nicely setup.

looking forward to the next episode.

yeah lol,anyway great episode

Heh, seems like it. Another decent episode, I liked it.

It seems like Fan is forced onto the path of a hero, regardless of whether he wants to. Still, at this point it's doubtful that he can achieve anything, since these rebels don't even seem to have any resources, such as a fleet.

Good episode. Looking forward to more.

Where's your faith!? He's Fan Hyulick! He has all the luck in the world! I mean, captured twice in the same day? This guy is going places.

Ok, this episode won me over.

Now, you can definitely see that it's from the makers of LotGH. Really many similarities.
The plot slowly unfolds and I think I can see where this is going. I think this show will be pretty awesome soon.
Too bad most people didn't give it a few episodes.

Fan is no Yang Wenli, but I think better of him now. He is a good replacement for the cool rebel leader. I am interested in the rest of the rebel group. The girl is a bit too young (adjusted for today's audience's taste) but interesting.

Best scene was, when she asked him how many people he killed and he said "100000" and she laughed, because she thought he was making a joke, but we all know he wasn't joking. Ok, we learned later on that she did know it and just played dumb, but anyway nice scene and a good indicator for Fan's character.

Also interesting hero doesn't want to be hero theme. They all gave their lives for "the great hero who defeated the undefeated Tytania Clan" who just did his job, but wasn't interested in all the stuff going on at all. He is just a normal guy who wants to work, earn money and have fun. ^^

Next episode please!

I have a feeling I am really going to like this show.

The plot is a little slow for me but I enjoy this anime so far.
Well, I think you know why people don't like to watch this anime. But i have one question, does Tytania is really similar to LotGH in term of plot or something along the line?

I liked this episode, its still a great series.
I'm loving it, and we're still only in the introduction episodes.

Probably the most underrated series of this fall, masterpiece.

Poor Fan he must be really sorry that he won that battle.
The clan's head maid is the narrator xD

I think this series is lighter in tone than LOGH. But I have a feeling it's going to raise some serious questions as it progresses. For example, Fan is already questioning the consequences of fighting Tytania because it obviously involves war and people dying as a result.

I must admit I have a very hard time understanding why people don't like to watch this anime, as why people didn't like to watch the best show of this summer (also adapted from a novel by Yoshiki Tanaka) Yakushiji Ryoko no Kaiki Jikenbo. My only guess is that people have no taste when it comes to good series but I may be wrong :) To answer your question, both shows have a lot in common yes, same kinds of characters, same themes, same style, same setting and the plot develops in the same direction (but LOGH is much more grand from the beginning and we are plunged directly into the war, in Tytania, it will take some episodes probably). As Nata-chan hints, Tytania is much lighter in tone compared to LOGH for now, but I hope it will change soon (and I'm convinved it will, it's mainly due to the focus being on the new Yang Wen-li : Fan Hulic, whereas the development of LOGH is dependent on the development of the future emperor Reinhard Von Lohengram and not Yang...).

To go back to the episode itself, it was great, Fan meets Lila, which is good, and at the same time, the rule and perenity of Tytania is being questioned, with a nice execution taking place outside the imperial palace to "purge" the last dissidents. Fan is now before a dilemma, but he will obviously chose the Lila/Casabianca side even if the fight is already lost even before starting anything. Alliance style ! On the other side, the fight between the 4 successors will intensify and probably result in Juslan overtrowing all the other family leaders. Well, they are just some guesses but I have seen enough Yoshiki Tanaka adaptations to anticipate that pretty accurately ;)

Unsurprisingly this series just gets better. While Yang will forever be my numero uno anime hero, Fan is certainly climbing the ranks in a hurry. I mean hell, he isn't just Dude-like ala Yang, he really is The Dude given that Tytania is clearly The Big Lebowski in space. The plot has a lot of ins and outs, Fan gets thrown into a series of misadventures because of an unfortunate event, and there's bowling...well okay, the bowling was replaced by tea. Although I will say that Lydia either needs to be of some importance or GTFO. She was really the only part of the episode I didn't like.

To be truthful, I think that lighter might not be bad. LOGH was a bit too dark.

This series is getting awesome *.*
I love Fan being something like the anti-hero.. He's supposed to be the big hero and everyone wants him, but he says it's only luck and just goes of on his own x)
Gotta love him x3
And I'm guessing Lyra's character will improve... When the war starts that girl will be forced to change... Too bad she has no idea of what war is.. Or at least seams like it.. *yeah, part of her family lost against Tytania when she wasn't born and she heard a lot of stories, but I believe it's really different the listening to stories and the living it yourself....*

Wait, what's that noise? it sounds like of thousands of newborn fangirls screaming for LyraXFan

jkjk

This show is HORRIBLY underrated. Every once in a while a slow moving plot isn't a bad thing. In this case, it really fits. I'm kinda curious, what'll happen if/when Fan gets serious.

Also... what's lydia's role in the story?

I agree, the body count was extremely high

Well, if you are having a very hard time understanding why people don't like to watch this anime, then I will give you some hints. In term of plot, this anime might be great show for us but it is not something that you can expect alot of people to love this type of anime in this modern era. In term of art, this is an outdated compare to Gundam. As for the characters, all the characters in this anime might be great in a point of view but if you look around and check other anime like Gundam Seed, Shana, Code Geass etc.. is there any character in those anime not close enough to a kick-ass characters? What exactly this anime lack the most are Action and Eye-candy.

And if you look around here, all the people who have posted in this thread are a big fan of LotGH. So you can assume that only these type of people here will watch Tytania and will praised it as a great anime.

I am pretty sure, that she will serve a purpose later on. Those guys have never introduced characters that don't serve a purpose later on. Wouldn't make much sense, either.


Well, I don't think the art is outdated. It's very decent. Moreover maybe at least girls have the eye candy factor with this show. They also tried hard with Lila. ^^"
But you must be right, since not many people are watching this. I also know some people having dropped it without even finishing the first episode; they refuse to give it a chance. Maybe the beautiful power ranger boys in the OP scared them away.

Regarding your first question: Like Jacut already says: There are plenty of similarities, but nevertheless the story is different. I think if you like this you have all reasons to go watch LotGH, since that's a real masterpiece you shouldn't miss. Give it about 10 episodes in order to be able to tolerate the old art (if you mind old art) and in order for the story to unfold. Moreover you need that many episodes to get a glimpse of the cast in LotGH. There are hundreds of support characters.
