Fantastic episode. Good animation too, and lots of action.
Better strategies then before.

Amazing battles were everywhere! Loved every bit of it. The poor Alliance was getting annihilated and Yang was struggling a bit with the empire's overwhelming forces.

"The goddess of victory is waving her underwear in your faces." Best line so far XD

Goddamn Yang needs more power he is always obeying stupid orders and he would fuck shit up with even numbers and same power as Reinhard.

They should seriously Ban anyone over like 40 from the military in this series.

Definitely one of the best episodes so far.

But damn, the Alliance got rekt.

So far, I find myself wanting the Empire to win more than the Alliance.

The space battle made no more sense than previous ones but there was more visceral excitement to it. If the war parts are going to be operatic instead of serious I'd prefer they be like this.

As expected, the Alliance got decimated :/

The battles where kinda hard to follow at times if I might add.

Well I guess it was wrong of me to root for the Alliance here lol. I blame Andrew Fork, the decision to take food away from the liberated citizens was stupid.

Yang Wenli deserved better than that.

Begin another space battle, and in the alliance there are only admirals that think they know the Reinhard´s strategy!! of course, Yang is one!!!

This space battle is dark to alliance :(

yeap, battle is on, full on now, and it looks like the Aliance is suffering major lost, except for Yang, who maneged to escape. Reinhard didnt tolerate flaws like Bittenfeld's one.
Will Lobos and Yang escape or surrender? it doesnt seem like they can do anything different than this...
Love... hurts... so...

A well executed episode. We really got to see some major cost around Wenli due to higher command. That Lobos is an asshat.

It's clear that the goddess of victory underwear quote is the best from this episode, but I'll offer a decent runner-up from Yang:

"If I survive, I'll take care of my health for the rest of my life."

It's obvious the Alliance or rebels are going to lose
But seeing them lose for real feels good, though kinda sad for Yang
Why did he have to have rank below these inferior commanders

Damn, it's either lose or a miracle happen

christ some of the scene transitions were awful in this show. instead of letting the audience breathe before the setting changes, we keep getting immediately thrown into a shot of whatever's happening somewhere else. im not asking for a frame to awkwardly linger for minutes but could we get some pause before we switch to something else

i know people talk a lot about die neue these in how it made everything shinier or better designed or better animated, but nobody really mentions how the directing in the ova was also pretty shoddy compared to the reboot. no wonder i slept through this part of the anime the first time through lol

I ask what his wife, standing nearby, thinks of his "hobby".
"She probably thinks no problem," he replies. "Because she loves young boys sexually interacting with each other."

huh?they're very different shows...you're just being a fanboy


it was a better fight than the first :p...though i didn't get why would they shoot the star lol

also,if this was real life the ships would have melted

Not really red giants don't have that much energy output, they burn slowly.
The bombs were dropped to make irradiation waves, that way the enemy ships that were bellow the alliance ships go up

Opening with some Dvorak , nice.

hmm so the engineer being forced to rush the prep for Poplin's Spartainian was why his gun was off by 12 degrees?

Reinhard's scorched Earth strategy really made the Alliance's invasion backfire... Vice Admiral Borodin just straight up committed suicide upon hearing how many ships his fleet had left.

And just as Yang has a plan for a U-formation, his allies, or rather all forces, were ordered to regroup instead.

Reinhard has so many talented men....and then Bittenfeld

"The goddess of victory is flashing her panties at us!" lmao

Reinhard's sounds so pissed and rightfully so.

This episode had really excellent and dynamic battles.

Possibly the best space sci-fi anime and best military anime I've ever seen in general.

Geass is such a cheap version of LOTGH and Evangelion combined...

Empire is always the most interesting side in these type of series , huh. Much more interesting personalities.Yang is still the MVP anyway.

By the way , where is Dusty?I kinda miss him.
I hate everyone equally

If you want to know the music played in each episode, you can consult the episode pages in Gineipaedia. For example, this is the page for episode 15.

To avoid spoilers, make sure you don't read the pages for episodes you haven't watched.

I have come across this scene and have been playing it on a loop.
It's definitely one of my favorite scenes from LotGH (aside from being one of the best episodes overall).

The poetry and beauty of the Zephyr Particles exploding and the mines flying...
and to see Yang and his assistants very worried... it's fantastic and epic.

it's hard for me to see yang lose at the end, but i didn't cared much for the other fleets lol.
on the other hand, reinhard always have some stupid commander, but the rest are pretty favourable, glad no one of them had died.

this episode truly showed how start wars should have been lol.

Beautiful symphony choice for this episode, as expected the built up battle resulted in embrassing blow to whole Alliance, such a shame many quite talented looking vice admirals died because of terrible strategy from superiors, Yang is lucky he didn't meet same fate

Epic episode, the scale was immensely impressive. The alliance just seem to suck, I understand they are low on resources and spread a bit thin but they got folded pretty easy for the most part. One or two moments could have been clearer. This is a space opera done right, very good.

"The goddess of victory is flashing her panties at us." What a line.





EDIT: Honestly, the contrast between this line and the poeticism we got from Siegfried a few episodes beforehand about rain being the tears of dying stars is what makes it truly something.

Dvorak's Symphony No. 9 (Allegro Con Fuoco) is the perfect space battle music. Apparently Neil Armstrong brought along a tape recording of this piece for the Apollo 11 mission. Fortunately there were no battles on the that particular space expedition!

A bunch of spaceship exploding and Yang just sitting there in an obvious "sucks to be some of my allies, because I'm not dying today ;p"-way.
