Yang fleet seem to take war so lightly and they are childish, i dont hate them, in fact i enjoy them as well, but not as much as the Empire fleets.
The Empire and Reinhard seem more mature in terms of story.
Yang fleet also is overpowered and has plot armor.
Anyway that criticism applies also to Code Geass so its not like i dont expect some bad moments, nothing is perfect.
With all that i would say LOTGH is one of the best show no doubt.

I'm very excited for the next battle and i hope there will be no plot armor or deus ex machina.

The true battle is ahead! I am afraid this time Yang will be the one defeated :\ (well I root for Yang's side alot than that blond brat).

I also think from this episode, the show will intensify alot more than the last 50 episode. Maybe I am starting to like this show 'a liitle bit more' than my expectation(thanks to guys who recommended this anime from Code Geass ^_^)

Ok, I'm calling bullshit. I saw that trap with the black hole from a mile away, so, it seems quite stupid that a ranked officer with actual experience didn't expect anything. The only time anyone in this show says that something is a trap, it isn't and they get destroyed because of it, but then, when there's actually a trap, (an obvious one at that) they have no suspicions at all and they also get destroyed. I'm starting to think Wenli's fleet has plot armor confirmed.

For real, why did he think it would be so easy to keep the Alliance fleet "trapped" between them and the black hole? :/ Seems fishy to me. Yang is always two steps ahead, and when he has full control, seems like he'll always win. I like him and his insight on human nature and history, but I'm slightly annoyed at how good he is at predicting everything, whether it's through psychoanalyzing his opponents or not. I feel like by now, we should be seeing the Imperial Army making plan Bs and Cs. Basically, they should be expecting that Yang can predict their action and thus they do not take that action. Obviously that sounds really simple and it's not like it'd actually always work, but it's better than being played right into Yang's hands...

But perhaps it's foreshadowing that Yang will not have his continued victories? Although if that's the case, I'd doubt it's because of being outwitted by Reinhard, but instead due to physical limitations/lack of resource.

Anyways things are getting really good. I love the portrayal of Reinhard when he's not in uniform. Not necessarily vulnerable, but you realize once again how young he is. And although he's stern in front of his men, he's still very warm and kind. Enjoyed the scenes he has with Emil so far. Especially when he told Emil that he should learn from Yang instead, then remembers that he told Emil to become a military doctor.

Loved seeing Reinhard admire Yang. The battle between them is going to be epic.

I have a baaad feeling about this: Yang is winning all his battles easily, Reuental looks he's about to betray Reinhard... I bet this won't turn out to be good to neither Yang nor Reinhard.

Oh dear, now the show is using its brand of space-logic around black holes. I'm sure this story exposition will make complete sense.

I just can't seem to hide my dislike for Yang and his fleet during space battles. It's just how admirals are, like Reinhard said, but it's not pretty to see a coward-like move to constantly retreat during the battles.

How many times did the Empire admirals get tricked this episode? Jesus.

Reuental looks like he's up to no good

Damn, this made me sad :(
One of them will die, they can't go back and just ignore each other
Maybe in another universe, another timeline.. Those three are best friends and there's no war

Welp gotta prepare my heart for it, I'm still rooting for Alliance
Because if they lose there's no future for them

Yang showed his awesomenes again and he leaves Reinhard no other choice but to use himself as a bait.

Letting his ego take over like that, whether that's a mistake or not, we'll see.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

Reinhard takes meetings so much more seriously than Yang, even bringing props to use as a visual reference.

Reuental really is concerning. The only ways he couldn't be able to return to aid Reinhardt are either treason or defeat, and there seems to be no circumstances that could lead him to be defeated.

I'm really confused, as Reuental has no motives to betray Reinhardt. He hasn't been shown to be overly ambitious, nor he holds any grudges to von Lohengramm himself. Also, as we all know, the death of von Lohengramm would destroy the Empire, as he discussed with Mittermeyer. Is he some kind of nihilist?

Anyway, I'm looking forward to see Ya g and Reinhardt fighting in a kind of equal footing. As we've only reached half the show, it's unlikely for any of them to die (though I was expecting some more deaths of subordinates), but it's sure that the upcoming battle will only have one winner. Being that the only way Prince von Lohengramm can be defeated is to lose his life, and also knowing that we have only completed half of the series, it's very likely luck will be on Reinhardt's side this time.

On an unrelated side note, I like Emir. He is a nice character who can show us naiveness, innocence and youthfulness in the middle of a war. Take into account the words that Reinhardt said to himself: "Children need time to dream". This is radically different from the words we heard in episode 1: "There is no time to sleep during a war. Anyway, you would only have nightmares".

spoiler: the soldiers that sucked in the black hole will be back in time travel. lol
i mean, didn't expected or the anime to make such strategies.

this is kind of the episodes that makes you hate yang and love reinhard.
reinhard just feels eager to meet yang in battle.

if i wouldn't know that the anime have 110 episode i would say next episodes gonna be the last.
but on the other hand, there are so much open plots that can be continued wether yang or reinhard gonna lose. such as the earth cult and rubinsky.

either way, really dunno which to cheer.
yang really doesn't want to be the winner, but on the other hand he has to fight for the alliance.
reinhard is just fulling his life time dream.
this anime is masterpiece lol.

it will be more amazing though for reuntal to make his "promise".
damn i love this anime.

Reuntal is plotting something really not fitting for a time like this, hopefully Mittermeyer can come up with something that would stabilize this situation in general.

Yang vs Reinhard is coming this way more and more as each episode passes.

Great episode for planning and different perspectives

pretty good episode, Reinhard an Reuental both have some very interesting bits. However, if Reinhard went to the black hole this might all be over already

Reinhard made a bold decision! I'm getting to know his character more and more.
