Its good that they can finally free their sister now. I wonder what it is gonna be like with that kid as king? Are people going to try and bribe him into doing what they want him to do for the kingdom or something like that?

What exactly is a Marquis? I'm not familiar with any of these royal rankings


For all who are interested, Marquis is one of the five common titles of nobility. In the Galactic Empire, the nobility is organised according to the following ranks (in descending order): Duke (公爵), Marquis (侯爵), Count (伯爵), Viscount (子爵), and Baron (男爵). Holders of any one of these titles are conventionally translated by the subbers as "high nobles". Below those five ranks are the Reichsritter, or Imperial Knights. Reinhard's father was a Reichsritter, which explains the presence of the "von" particle in his original surname Müsel. The high nobles would consider the Reichsritter as petty nobility and were generally disdainful of them (cf. their attitudes towards Reinhard).

Examples of high nobles in LoGH: Duke Otto von Braunschweig (not Prince, although that is also a possible translation of 公爵), Marquis Wilhelm von Littenheim, Count Reinhard von Lohengramm (when he was first bestowed with the surname Lohengramm; he would personally elevate himself in rank as the series progresses), Viscount Richard von Grimmelshausen (the seemingly senile fleet commander whom Reinhard served under in the Gaiden series) and Baron Flegel (one of Duke Braunschweig's nephews)

Pretty amazing turn of events with the kaiser dying off screen, happy to see Reinhard's sister is finally out from her ''cage'' and him getting lectured by Kircheis was pretty motivating.

Surprised that the Kaiser just died off screen like that. Definitely interested in what role Phezzan will play in the future.

I wasn't so surprised about the news of the Kaiser dying of a heart attack, it always did seems he would kick the bucket at any given moment. Well at least Annerose is finally free, right Siegfried? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Yang promoted to Admiral while Reinhard to Marquis? This should be fun.

The space battle ends, whit the victory of Reinhards!!!!
Yang scapes of the enemy and the death!!!
The Kaiser is death, and now in the Empire begin a new inside war by the throne!!!

Kircheis, is the voice of the conscience of Reinhard... During the episode was a tense scene, that we can watch that if not for Kircheis, Reinhard can loses in the dark!!!

Haha Reinhard as 2nd Hitler, well Yang is probably not wrong
But that spot is taken by Johan or "Monster" xD

That sucks, I'd love to see the Kaiser suffers first before he died

I always forgot there's not only 2 factions in this war, there are few like Phezzan

Julian have joined the war, he's probably also a very strong tactician/commander

Was there a translation error when they talk about the 3 grandchildren and Reinhard ask who would shake his hand and it said Lichtenlade ??

It is not. Bear in mind that the 3 grandchildren are all still minors; therefore they do not actually hold any power whatsoever. Instead, they are set up to be proxies for the actual power-holders. Now, 2 of the 3 grandchildren are representing the interests of their respective fathers (Duke Braunschweig and Marquis Littenheim), while the remaining one (ie, Erwin Josef II) has no backer. Because of that, the last grandchild becomes useful for Lichtenlade, who wants to perpetuate his political power even after the passing of Friedrich IV. And since he does not command any troops himself, he would need to ally with Reinhard to be able to fend off the abovementioned nobles.

the alliance lost a lot of power and the empire is seen to be on the verge of a civil war.

Yang's prowess in the losing battle impressed those in Reinhard's fleet. The "two tides of thought in human society" quote is great. While there's the conflict between alliance and empire, the struggle between the two tides of thought are in both. Trunicht's becoming very powerful politically.

"Could Count Lohengramm be aiming to be come a second Rudolf?", echoing Reinhard and the statue, knowing that the imperial "nobility" started somewhere. This succession crisis can give him a chance to do this, but he will have to deal with the secret players; Phezzan and the Terraist church.

Yang got promoted and is in control of the Iserlohn Fortress he captured. Julian is now in the military.

for some reason the whole activities caught in this episode made me think that all what happened 'till now was only the epilogue to the series lol. it just had this kind of vibes.

continuing the talk had been started in this discussion - yes, great bishop felt like palapatin lol. but though the comparing between LotGH to star wars, how long that LotGH won't have a dark side force or whatever, so far i think LotGH is surpassing star wars. both in term of politics (in star wars it's mainly in the prequel trilogy) and in term of action. (in star wars most space battles are "we need to bomb the core of the death star")

though all, it feels as the anime made us like both sides, alliance and empire, and introducing that great bishop as new earth side, and rubinski too, i can't help but to think the anime wants us to hate them. and it somewhat gives me the feel of yang and reinhard combine forces against earth.e

another thing. for some reason i feel as reinhard is fighting the whole noble system. maybe the writer is destining him to be Communist, that would be interesting.

That Bishop seems to be something serious at least from the way it looks, reminds me of Emperor Palpatine from Star Wars, 

Kircheis was really great troughout the episode but the biggest shocker is that damn Kaiser is dead, in the future with all that advanced technology and medicine you would think that he should live at least 200 years but dies at embrassing age of 66, guess that drinking was part of the reason.

Wonder who will get the throne, there might be a massive coup coming soon unfortunately not in Alliance
