I have bad feeling about Admiral Kempf (?) (I think that's his name?)

The fact that they are showing so much of his family and his promise to come back is making me fear that he will die in this military operation.

But I feel so cold, Kircheis..There is no warm light in a world without you and my sister. Damn this hits hard :((
The Geiersburg fortress warp scene was amazing, I cannot wait for the what is coming up.

I'm loving this, great episode. The Kempff kids are so cute, I like DNT's portrayal of his family over the OVA actually.

Next episode... finally the committee!

The warp of the Geiersburg fortress was a success and now they have declared war on the Free Planets Alliance. Reinhard is definitely not the same man after Kircheis died as he continues to isolate himself from his subordinates. He feels like there is no point in all of this if Kircheis and his sister is not there. Getting a huge death flag from Kempff as this may be the last time he see his kids again.

That daring plan a success, oh no!

warp of the Geiersburg fortress looked really awesome, but with the big fleet it turned into something intimidating.

Free Planets Alliance is probably completely unprepared, I hope something goes seriously wrong with the empire strike force, otherwise it would be over for the Alliance

The warp of Eisenburg fortress is cooler here than in the OVA. Modern animation helps a lot in these kinds of scenes.

My heart breaks for Reinhard. His best friend and companion is dead, his sister receding into seclusion, he's at an all time low dealing with the weight of the world. Keeping his promise to Kircheis is the only thing keeping him going now that he feels so cold. I teared up when Reinhard visited the place where Kircheis sacrificed himself. Everything started to change after that happened, Reinhard might've been content just being the emperor and stopping the corrupt nobles. Now he has to take it all for Kircheis, never stopping until the whole universe is under Reinhard control. Somehow that damned warp theory worked and they moved that giant fortress with it. Reinhard pushing full steam ahead to attack Iserholn since they can warp right in front of it. Big shifts coming to end the season in these last few episodes.

Oberstein scares me. And for Kempff all hope is lost, the guy received SO MANY signs.

That warp scene was intense.

Just like Reinhard, I don't think I'll get over Kircheis's death and the gaping hole he left in his friend's heart.

SAME! Oberstein's ambitions seem limitless, it's indeed scary.

I was expecting the warp to go terribly wrong with the death flags raised by Kempff when he was with his family so I was surprised it actually went well. But I guess the campaign is just starting again so he will still be away from his family for some time.

That last scene with Reinhard was so sad though, Kircheis really was the person he shouldn't have lost and hearing him say how cold he feels in a world without him and his sister was really emotional and shows just how much his heart is closed off.

Lol Reunthal's sense of humor, him saying that if a bomb were to be thrown at that moment the universe's fate would have change drastically was such an unexpected comment.

Without Kircheis around Reinhard is not the same. He is beginning to distance himself from his subordinates.

Admiral Kempf is raising a lot of death flags. We’re seeing a lot of his family.

The wrap scene was incredible! The animation was something

And that's how important the presence of Siegfried Kircheis was, everyone can't help but think what would happen if the GOAT was still alive. Reinhard has completely closed off his heart. Can anyone make place for themselves there anymore? Hilde perhaps, given how close she has gotten to him and seems to care for him quite a lot maybe someday?
