| Very interesting development and with that cliffhanger! Really looking forward to see what will happen next! |
 |
| Felt bad for poor Poplan. Wow Yang actually almost beat Reinhard. Shouldn't be that surprised. Yang has always been a superior strategist imo |
 |
| Muller is a hero coming to aid at last second |
 |
| It was kind of funny when Reinhard was face to face with a battleship. Müller was really good. The MVP of this episode. Also, RIP Konev. Him and Poplin made a great duo, who brought some comedic relief with each episode they appeared in. |
 |
| R.I.P Konev. I kinda wish Poplan was the one to go instead of you I swear Muller as the tenacity of a cockroach, this guy just won't die xD |
 |
| This intensity, it's not good for my heart. |
| Not a bad episode but Yang's inability to see Lohengram's simple plan seemed out of character. It's not like he was being clouded by something core to people like emotions. Even his steward figured out Lohengramms plan. I think the writing took a dip in Yang's character just to make his steward look smart. He did do the obvious counterplan to Lohengramm's tactic which is to use deception by faking a retreat and playing with Lohengramm's pride (something Yang decided to do before this episode), resulting in spreading out of his forces. So at least Yang wasn't out of character during the whole episode. |

| First bad episode imo, Yang strategy seems more like an asspull. Why any character who faces Yang is rewritten to become a complete idiot? That's Bad or Plot armor? Also those fighters are laughing and fighting a deadly battle? gimme a break!! @Lockensocke I have read many criticism from you towards the show and i can agree with some, some points you made are fair enough and on point, especially on Yang the way you said he is not natural and too cold without emotions, that makes him nonhuman unlike Reinhard who is a far better character imo. But most LOTGH fans are very delusional and get very angry if you disagree with them, they are the definition of a mindless sheep. While i think i would rate it a 9 or a 10 and possibly top 5 favorite i acknowledge just as i acknowledge with code geass that this show is also flawed in some points. |
| Why would they break through and join someone that is surrounded? |
| Yang brokes the Reinhard strategy, but in the last time appeasr Muller to saves the blonde boy!!! :/ In the battle, there are elements unpredictable, and Muller was one of this elements....a pity!! :/ |
| That was magnificent, Yang proved to be much more better than Reinhard von Lohengram. |
JohnWoo said: I have to say though I hate Reinhard. He may have started out with noble intentions but right now why is he fighting? It's pure greed right now. All of these people dead because he wants to rule the universe. If the FPA win he will go down in history as one of the biggest monsters of all time. His noble intentions died along with his best friend. I was excited when it looked like he would meet his maker, but Muller came to his rescue sadly. Take a look at the FPA and you'll see it's not that MUCH better than the Empire. Reinhard is doing all these conquerings just so he can unify the universe, or to be more precise, put it back to its original state before Rudolf's reign. Apart from that, this is a warring era, men like Reuenthal and Reinhard tend to strive for the hardest, biggest, and baddest, sort of like reaching for the star, hence the title containing "galactic". These men enjoy war not for the sake of slaughtering the weak or for their thirst of wealth, they enjoy it because it's a way to showcase who's the best. The battlefield a fitting arena to decide who's worthy to fight or sort of. They consider cheap moves like scheming, stealing, or raping as nothing more than a disgrace to man as a whole, but when it comes to war and conquering, this is how real men are born. This where they fight to their heart content and have a chance to meet worthy opponent (like Yang). Maybe they'll die young, maybe they won't be able to achieve anything at all, but in return they can have an opportunity to leave a mark in the history, a proof that they've committed something huge enough to last for eternity instead of living a normal, peaceful life like the majority of mankind. In other words, the hidden message left in this anime so far can be interpreted as "to live is to strive for the best, never cease to grow, and men must do big (heroism)". As the 2nd OP pointed out, "In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same". We can't guarantee that the current state of the world (Irl) can last forever, a time might come in the future that we'll witness another turbulent age just as in LoGH, or way back to several hundred years ago. |

| I didn't fully understand the asteroid tactic, but it was a fun episode. |
 |
| RIP Konev. I doubt many viewers picked up a "death flag" for him last episode! |
 |
| Muller is one of my favorite Empire admirals. He fought a remarkable battle. RIP Konev |
| They gave up without any resistances, that might be good because of no bloodshed But at the same time, they just doomed FPA FPA finally reached Reinhard's fleet, I wonder how well it goes for them Now there's only small chance before other Empire's reinforcements arrive |

| It's indeed hard to put into words how exciting this battle actually is, simply breathtaking. Rip Konev, tho :( |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |

| worst episode yet commanders are (and have been) inexplicably stupid but even then should outnumber them 10 to 1 i don't care who you are you don't beat that whatsoever none of it is thoroughly explained it's just asspull after asspull and now i hate this show and yang unbelievably horrible writing here. saw someone mention alexander the great first off they had a new form of military tech that helped, here they are evenly matched secondly, this isn't a land war, it's naval, in three dimensional space with little to no obstructions or terrain, though when it's needed the writer just pulls it out of their butt for yang's plot armor it's getting really old and frustrating |

| What an epic battle. It’s rare to see such an intense show. Also, rip Konov. Tragic death that shows the ruthless cruelty of war. |
| the end was just :O to be honest though, reinhard plan was perfect. but the way yang made it out not only to survive but also to plan new tactic that made him almost winning this war was kind of annoying honestly. i get that he's smart and all but i feel the author just messed it up here to bring one-sided battle that ended with plot armour, no matter how much better the plot armour explained. i wouldn't be surprised if the way reinhard going to be saved this time is by the same way. this is may be the anime tricking me, but i cheered up much more to reinhard's plan than yang's that felt - as other in this thread felt - emotionless. in the end the anime kind of tricked me to cheer much more to reinhard, though making me hope that my theory about yang's dying wont' be truth lol. if this really what made the author doing this, i dunno if he's a magician or just badass writer lol. |

Considering what happends in the next episode the last two were simply badly written and didn't need to happen the way they did. |

| Another great battle. I hope Reinhard survives this |
 |
| Gorgeous battle episode, Reinhard coming to the front lines and accepting the fact he might die is truly heroic and admirable from the main leader of whole imperial army. Muller definitely deserves praise for stepping in the perfect time after resolving his own situation and instantly deciding to come to aid, he deserves a lot of credit, his appearance literaly changed the battle outcome. But the real genius of the day is still Yang, his strategies troughout the episode are mindblowing, really really unique and well tought out, specially that awesome circle formation. Can't believe Konev actually died, but it goes to show how accurate his death was, thats how military pilots even very skilled ones can meet fate at any given time. It seems that we wont see the comedic duo of him and Poplan anymore, but it was really fun while it lasted. Can't hold my excitement to see how the battle will go from here and what else might happen that will surprise everyone |
| oh my god this was so intense. I will miss you konev |
