Its a wonder people originally got trough these first 2 episodes,without any prior knowledge of the story.The pacing is so fast and you can barely keep up with all the names and characters if you're not familiar with them already.

Technically its also very modest ,there's literally no reason not to start from the third movie instead of this.

If only Yang is the commander from the beginning
Jean probably is alive right now

Weird how the Alliance's commanders and Imperial's high ranking officers didn't die sooner
They're way too stubborn


So many weird strategic plotholes...

After watching the first two episodes two times, I can say that they are ok in terms of drama but seriously, the Overture movie is far better than them in every aspect.

I would say the Empire. The free alliance was only saying the won. But they lost 1.5 million men to the empires i believe 150,000. Not to mention the free alliance lost 2 fleets. Also the free city thing (can’t remember the name) said the empire won and they have no bias towards either side.

Yang's commander doesn't look injuried, the remake did better that aspect but the ending here was much better and less rushed.

Well, I'm enjoying this so far.

i still can't say i love yang or reinhard more.
(damn, except for the fact their names are hard to remember, it's also hard to write them down lol)

this battle was great, i actually wants more of their strategic battles. in one hand it reminds me code geass's tactics, in the other it's not code geass at all lol.

i also love how political reason making both sides claiming they are "the winning ones", it's really not something that out of the world but something of almost everyday battles and war.

A puzzling yet great episode in general, all the war strategies and Yang taking over the command were fun, you know you are good when enemy respects you that much, characters having names shown under them is great for this massive kind of show, it really allows them not to be forgotten and always acts as a reminder

this show has a weird appeal. Its slow, the characters haven't been given the greatest depth yet, its almost boring. Yet, I cannot look away and I really enjoy it.

Interesting to see the same battle from the other side. While some of the tactics were a bit unclear to me, the result was very pleasing to watch. But I pretty much good with watching any well done space battles, even if the reason for the fighting is not yet clear. With a hundred or so episodes in the series, I assume this will unfold eventually.

I have no idea what went through that battle xD

Poor Jessica; they couldn't send her some condolences, so she didn't have to find out about the death of her husband in that way.

Blond guy's sister looks like she's under the influence of drugs and melancholy.

Just these first 2 episodes have been really dense. There are so many characters and an abundance of mythological symbolism. I'm enjoying it so far, I just didn't think I'd need to pay such close attention.
