| A humble man dies a humble death. It fits his character perfectly. |
| That Yang would die was only evident in these last few episodes, before the narrator's grim voice declared that "it would be the last time Yang and Julian spoke through the whole night" I couldn't possibly anticipate it. I am certain that Reinhard will eventually die young, the brightest stars always fall first, but I always hoped that Yang would live on and die a humble death, retired and in peace, from old age. His early-death was quite shocking and the 3rd season's ed only made sense to me after this event. |
| Why the fuck did I watch the ep 81 preview?! Why the fuck did yang have to die?! Man, this was really depressing. :'( |
| Man, that was so... FUUUU- Great men die on pitiful ways, but at least he didn't left the world with an epic death. He wouldn't be pleased. Just like Reinhard when he refused to build a giant statue of himself, both are humble man in his own ways. I just felt so... empty, after watching this. Makes me value this series even more. |
 |
| I think that's the first time I've ever, while watching anime, verbally objected to something happening on my screen by use of profanity. Was a couple days before I watched any more LOGH, I knew it was coming for a long time simply due to the fact Yang has a successor in Julian, but this was harsh. Absolutely brilliantly written, heartbreaking nonetheless. |
   |
| After all that build up with Reinhard, and it ends with him being shot in the leg by some random guy without a name, and bleeding to death. Quite anticlimactic, but pretty artistic at the same time. Frederica and Julian are gonna be really depressed, but I think Reinhard is gonna take it harder than anyone. He is gonna be fuckin pissed when he finds out. RIP Yang Wenli, Galactic Heroes...no, the anime world wont be the same without you. |

| I did not beleve in the preview of episode 82... i though that they where trying to fool me. Just spend all my day depressed. |
| Dam the narrator and my bad habit of looking at the previews for spoiling me. Even Yang himself was disappointed at the way that he was gonna die. |
| That wasn't a very heroic death for Yang Wenli. In a way it was of course fitting, not getting killed by Reinhard in battle for just some random people as part of a scheme. |
 |
| This is by far one of the saddest scenes in anime that I have seen. Poor Yang, what a way to go. |
| My vision is augmented. |
| I literally felt like shit after I saw him die for the rest of the day. I didn't even talk to anyone for the rest of the day. It can not be healthy to be this attached to a character and a series ........ |
 Don't recommend me something that is still publishing, unless its close to being finished. Don't recommend me anything that isn't licensed. |
| I... Really, I am speechless at the moment, I can't believe Yang just died... I am literally shivering, I just shed a river of tears. Certainly I didn't thought I would be attached to Yang this way... God I just...sfk sadfdf fd2t334 |
| I went into this show spoiler-free, so when I got to this episode I was thoroughly shocked. Yes I did curse at the screen, damn authors for killing of the coolest character :-( Felt really empty for the rest of the day, probably the saddest death scene I have ever seen -_- |
| Some kid at Otakon this year spoiled Yang's death for me, I'm kinda glad he did though, because if I'm taking it this bad with knowledge before-hand I don't know how I would've reacted if I did know. At least I wasn't entirely sure how it was going to happen, I knew it wouldn't be in battle since it would be too expected. After seeing his death, Yang Wenli will probably be my favorite fictional character of all time. |

| Well i must say i was not expecting that, took me by total surprise. This was probably one of the saddest deaths i have seen in anime. Now i shall go cry in the corner :'( |

| I liked Yang, I really did. But, it didn't bother me that much that he died. I think I'd probably take Reinhard's death, if he does die, a little harder. I do think that the scene was well done and not overly dramatic which, of course, fits the nature of LOGH. The question is: Will Julian actually be able to fill the rather large shoes of Yang Wenli, I personally doubt it. |

| I just finished this episode damn...I'm speechless =.= even it was hinted before that he will die..but still it was very SHOCKING to see him die like that T.T one of the most saddest death that have ever seen..it was really really well written .... it was not a heroic death but really left an impact..I really cried T.T and seeing that black & white picture of him at the end T.T omg I still can't believe that he is gone..such a great character... I wonder how Reinhard will react.. and I doubt Julian will be as great as Yang...I think nobody can replace him.. RIP Yang Wenli... |
| =( |
| Just the kind of gritty, realistic death I expected. The episode also really played with our expectations by having the red herring of Andrew Fork being killed and the Rosenritters storming aboard to save the day, as they have always done until now. Until now. :( |

| We knew he was going to die, but I didn't want to believe it. Farrell Yang. |
 |
| It just happened. That's kinda all I have to say. Someone in MAL spoiled that in ep 82 something BIG is going to happen and after sticking it to my face for couple episodes before I can't say this came as surprise. Beh, I hate heroic, overly dramatic deaths anyway. Episode was made in pretty good taste. insan3soldiern said: I liked Yang, I really did. But, it didn't bother me that much that he died. I think I'd probably take Reinhard's death, if he does die, a little harder. By the way, this. |
| Damn... I predicted that Yang would die in the future but not like this. RIP Yang Wenli One of the best characters ever created. :( |
 |
| I didn't want him to die. Not this way. |
| It's sad, I cried. Right now, I just want this series to end soon. Yang certainly is one of the best anime characters ever! Farewell, Miracle Yang! |

| Woha - Masterpiece. Now more than ever. I didn't see that coming. Oh, Bloody Yang, why? Farewell. |

| The shittiest qq moment I've experienced in anime for a long time. I say shittiest cuz i feel like shit right now :( I've got to take a break after this season, I really have too...*sobs* ...I saw this coming though, there were signs of it from the very beginning ( the last scene of the first ED for instance). Its a good thing this wasnt a complete surprise. THat would have been the worst WTF anime moment of all time Beatnik said: GeorgeMoshington said: Some kid at Otakon this year spoiled Yang's death for me Give us a name. That's all we need. Just give us a name and we will take care of him. People like him dont deserve freedom. I concur. I already know about 2 major deaths that are going to happen...thanks to some stupid guy who edited wikipedia and some guy name nephlyte on youtube posting spoilers on his video summaries. People like these dont deserve to live I say..:( |

| "...our faces marked by toil, by deceptions, by success, by love; our weary eyes looking still, looking always, looking anxiously for something out of life, that while it is expected is already gone – has passed unseen, in a sigh, in a flash – together with the youth, with the strength, with the romance of illusions.” - Joseph Conrad ('Youth') |
| Unfortunately, I got spoiled by one person here, so I write here with my eyes half-moist and my heart half-heavy. It looked like Yang was going to be saved by the Rozenritter when his ship got attacked. But no. Everyone involved would be on a large ship, and Yang would be a floor away from Julian. :( Just how are you going to continue on for another 28 episodes!? What more do you say once you've lost that which binds the galaxy? |

| oh ok...I just hate it when someone spoils a character death :( |

akuk said: If it makes anyone feel better, the voice actor died around the same time. and why would that make anyone feel better? Its because of that we have to listen to someone else's voice in the prequel series :S |
