| A bit slower but quite interesting development, let's see what's next. |
 |
| Rip old dying dude. Also damn that guy had his brain spilling out. It's weird how this anime can suddenly get so gorey all of the sudden. |
 |
| well shit lol |
| Looks like the next big confict has begun. They did a nice job at showing how fanatic these cultists are. |
| I knew the second the dude thought about the locket Reinhard was going to be like hell naw mother fucker ! Its interesting the men under Reinhard that went with him, they seem to only now be curious about the locket? Its obvious Reinhard would never tell anyone about it, very private and personal and it'd just start a rumor mill if one of his commanders found out about it most likely. Anyway that was just a nasty move to pull on Reinhard it even looked like the Kaiser seemed to be genuinely nice towards the dude somehow. I'm guessing he was doing it more as a favor for Hilda , he just knows he ows her big time for saving his life :P If anything Reinhard was more upset at the cultists than kunmel. These dudes seem to be behind a lot of shady shit, they automatically started attacking imperial forces when they showed up too. Hopefully Julian learns a lot more about them. Looks like Julian's pretty much going into a viper den on earth, hope he manages to stay safe blending in with the cultists somehow. LOL now reinhard sent men to earth so everytime Julian goes anywhere there's trouble ugh. |

| Yang was one step ahead for realising the earth cult |
| "Let me touch your pendant." "No." "Give me the pendant!" "NO I WILL SKIN YOU ALIVE PLEBEIAN." It's as if Reinhard is becoming more obsessed with his only material attachment to Kircheis that remains. It gets a bit scary at times to watch him constantly rub it. I feel as though Heinrich is really a victim here. The Goldenbaum Dynasty essentially embedded it into him that he was worthless without some distinguished service or prestigious accomplishment. The Earth cultists took advantage of that desperation in his final hours. But man, now it opens the door to the possibility of more assassination attempts, I get the feeling they'll be the army in the shadows. That raid was brutal af, those brains dripping out was just like yuck... On another note, I ship Hilda x Reinhard. |
 |
| Can't say I felt bad for Heinrech but I can see where he's coming from. Klesser's back huh? I wonder if the plot point of him making the connections of Reinhard being already aware of the previous Kaiser's kidnapping, will be brought up again or just pushed to the sidelines. |
 |
| Reinhard needs a new raison d'etre and quick. Clearly Hilda is not cutting it, can we ship Katerose over to Odin? :P Also, I am surprised he hasn't visited his sister yet. I thought he was done conquering the Universe. Hmm. Another reason to live could be an overwhelming alien invasion. |
Wurstgurgler said: No, this isn't right. Terrorism never resulted in peace, yet almost always in war.I can already see that The Earth Church Cult is a Religion of Peace. |
| Omnia munda mundis |
| I prefer this kind of episodes to the epic space battles. This assassination attempts and plotting is the best thing especially coming from the empire side of story. I wish there will be more of this. Excellent episode. |
| The Kummel events was a suprise, i neve can imagine that he would try to kill Reinhard!! Reinhard and Marindorf, now is hard to get married!!! i hope this couple end together!!! |
asdfghjkl99 said: It suited the situation nicely "when your life is threatened, and when you arrest the villain afterwards do you punish the weapons that was in that villain's hands?" I know I sound stupid, but can anyone explain this quote please? Idk why, I keep trying to understand it but it's not clicking D: When Reinhard said "YADA", I laughed. There really are few moments where Reinhard seems very young, despite his many huge achievements. |

I know I sound stupid, but can anyone explain this quote please? Idk why, I keep trying to understand it but it's not clicking D: It means that Baron Kümmel (the "weapon") was merely a pawn of the Terraists (the "villain") and that it was pointless to punish him when the Terraists are still at large. |

Ohh, so that's what he was referring to. Can't believe I didn't realize it. Thanks for the explanation! |

| When that brain came out it reminded me of when I open canned meat and put it in my dish, I will definitely have bad appetite from now on damn it. If we go back for a few episodes when Reinhard seized the Universe, the Grand Bishop said that they had someone to use in the imperial could it be that it was Kümmel? I love how badass Reinhard can get and the fact that he is only 23 I still can't believe it, and poor Hilda after all that effort for convincing Reinhard to visit him and that idiot tried to kill him just so he will be remembered, at least he admitted that he will be remembered for his foolishness. Julian will have a hard time on earth because of the cultists and now the imperial army will join the trouble as well, at least it's going to turn out pretty interesting. |
| I took a break after getting through half the series, and this was a great episode to return with. Intrigue, action, and Reinhard being a boss. I'm glad the Earth Cult arc is picking up, as it seems really interesting. |
 |
| Did anyone notice that the episodes from 3rd season are longer? They're 27 minutes now, cool! This one in particular was quite interesting and leaves some questions for us. Why did Trunicht tell the police about the assasination? Was he just afraid that his connection to the Cult can be discovered and acted to defend himself? Or is there a deeper reason? Also, we know that the Cult is a military religious organization and it wants to restore the dominance of Earth because it's forgotten now, by letting the Empire conquer the universe (basically done) and than taking down Reinhard (fail). But why does this cult have such a form? Why form a religion? What is its history? Moreover, why did Reinhard say that sending Bittenfeld and his Black Knights to Earth is "too much" and choose Wahlen instead? Does he value him less? If so, it should have been quite insulting to Valen :D |

| Julian just doesn't have any good luck. The first time away from Yang was sent to Phezzan, just when the empire was targeting that planet to be invaded, and now again he's going to another place that is under the radar of Reinhard. |
| No tomo malas decisiones, solo me gusta apoyar causas perdidas. Disfruté Mayoiga, Ou-sama Game, Evil or Live, Mirai Nikki, Big Order, Arifureta, Ex-Arm, Tesla Note, Shuumatsu no Harem y Platinum End nope les falle con esa, lo siento pero todos tenemos nuestros límites. Así de jodido es mi gusto en anime, ¡Y estoy pinche orgulloso de ello!  |
| Wow Reinhard is actually really wise, "Do you go punish a weapon that has been used by the villain?" He's totally right, so they didn't punish him xD He's right, if the earth cult wasn't looking for power they wouldn't bring harm to Kaiser Let alone someone outside earth Looks like Julian's journey is full of bad luck Just when the Empire decide to strike earth, he came to earth |
"Signature removed"   |
| And thus Kircheis saved his life again. Reinhard didn't waver at all, he's truly living by his words that he's looking for a challenge. His current lifestyle really bores him. But most of all, he's longing for the days when he was fighting with Kircheis by his side. I felt bad for Hilda, tho and Heinrich was a tragic character. Julian on the other hand is about to get sucked into another conflict. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Always so blinded, trying to be remembered by history. Yet, not learning from history. What drives so many of the characters from this show to that fate? What can be said or done to break this cycle? |

| loool terraist = terrorist |

| getting interesting but i'm a bit concerned it's going to be the typical vanilla "religion bad" nonsense which is ridiculously low hanging fruit |
 |
| as i figured out some time ago, the story now will concentrate on empire vs earth cult, which i think somehow will give merkatz's force chance to strike. first time i hear poplan making political statement lol. poor julian, no matter where he goes war is after him. |
| 2022 Rewatch |
 Novels I have read/am reading pending approval: since November 10 2022 |
| Earth's definitely going to lose. No-one can match Reinhard after all |
 |
| Really intense episode, can;t believe the baron decided that this would be a genius way to go out, I knew Reinhard would find a way to get that thing button thing neutralized. Hilda was really great during the episode too, pretty fortunate that she oinly got house arrest but then again this doesn't seem like her fault. Maybe the whole marriage thing is just bound to happen. Also great seeing the earth cult getting their asses kicked and commiting mass suicides but pathetic bishop failed to do so, only to end up succeeding later. |
| one of my favorite episode so far, i love the tension in the scene between Reinhard and heinrich. |
