THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Talk about bad timing. If Oberstein failed to piss off a few of the wedding spectators sometime in the past, he picked the right time to get on their bad sides. Perhaps he really felt an obligation to inform Reinhard of a revolt. But to do it on his wedding day? Now that was just crass.

De Villier called all the Earth supporters idiots which leads me to believe he used some sort of trickery when the Grand Bishop appeared. Did he use a body double? A of hologram? Dressed up the corpse of the Grand Bishop and used elaborate puppeteering? Whatever the case, his actions point to deception behind the scenes.

Interrupting the wedding ceremony seems out of character, even for Oberstein. I wonder if the riots are more significant than they appear to be.

De Villier needs to die. If he kills Reinhard or something, I'm going to be upset.

Looks like these riots are the next big challenge, from the episode previews....

Again, wonderful wedding ceremony disrupted by Oberstein :/ Although I think it does fit his character very well....

And Long Live the Emperor and Empress, death to the Terraists....

They must've really timed everything perfectly so that 100th episode could be about Reinhard's wedding.
By the way, can someone explain to me why Kaiserin is greeted with "hoff" and Kaiser with "sieg"?

So this is the Legend of the Galactic Wedding. Epic as expected, considering Annerose came all the way from Odin to attend. Even moreso when Reinhard asked Count Mariendorf if he could call him 'Father'.

Actually, it doesn't really come as a shock to see Oberstein make his report as Reinhard and Hilde were walking away from the altar. As much as I, everyone who saw this episode, and all attending the wedding disliked this turn events, it was something to be expected of him.

I was wondering about this too. I was also thinking he might have used some sort of puppet to fool the believers. Though, at the end of the scene I thought De Villiers meant the followers were idiots for thinking something happened to the Grand Bishop.

I agree with what Oberstein did. Matters that concern the nation when you're an Emperor are more important than personal events, including a wedding.

Yes, Oberstein is totally hot for Reinhard.

Well Oberstein can't tell me that it couldn't wait 2 more minutes. They were on their way back from the altar any way :/

And the Grand Bishop appearing surprised me for a second, but with DeVilliers comment it's probably some trick used by him.

Also I wonder who's behind the riots on Heinessen, or if it's really just the mob rebelling...
I probably regret this post by now.

Hilda looked beautiful (but not her wedding gown...). It seems de Villier is holding every power in his hands; I still wonder if the Grand Archbishop is a fake one, or just drugged. The first hypothesis seems more likely to be true.

I like how the narrator said "no objected the marriage between Hilde and Reinhard" and they showed Oberstein's face lol.

I wonder what they were talking about (they being Annerose and Reinhard) in privacy...

It'll probably be like

"My little brother, you are now worthy of being my brother since your hair is now as long and gold as mine"

"No, my dear sister, my hair HAS LONG SURPASSED YOURS!!!!"

I always suspected it, ever since that assassination attempt that killed Kircheis. Oberstein acted as a meatshield for Reinhard when the first shot was fired, reacting almost as quickly as Kircheis did. True love

I think that it's been pretty obvious that Oberstein is hardcore yandere for his Kaiser. He's a rare stoic yandere, but a yandere nonetheless. Both times that someone close to Reinhard has died, Oberstein was just a little bit too involved. And whenever anyone has tried to get close to Reinhard in a way other than that of a subject to a king, Oberstein has always been there to subtly tell them to back the fuck off. Prime example:
In typical yandere fashion, Oberstein is very good at keeping what he's doing a secret from the object of his affection. I'll bet that the Fraulein will be assassinated or somehow end up as "collateral damage" once the heir is born.

But I don't think that Oberstein's yandereness is the reason why he interrupted the wedding. He was just getting even with the Kaiser and Fraulein for upstaging him 11 episodes ago with their rom-com antics.
He waltzes out there and bows.
Reinhard is clearly not in the mood for Oberstein's usual bullshit.
Oberstein could not care less about what his Kaiser wants.

As happy as I am that Hilda and Reinhard finally got married and are expecting, It brings up the interesting question of what Reinhard thinks about monarchial sucession. Didn't he denounce it rather furiously before? Didn't he say the very existance of such a thing was disgusting? If the child is a boy, what will that mean for Reinhard?

He hasn't mentioned anything about it yet, but i'm curious about when he does.

Everyone hates Oberstein.

Imagine if he had to deliever the message while Reinhard and Hilda were on their honeymoon. He would just burst into the room to tell him, not being amused at the 'action' before his eyes xD.

Oberstein wants a huuuuuuuuuuuug now that he lost his Kaiser.

So will Mittermeyer take Hilda's Fathers' position, I guess he could fulfill the duties but he seems to work best with a foil. If he became Reinhards buddy that would work and be interesting for the plot.

100 episodes. Finally!!

To tell you the truth, it took me a little over a year to get here. I'm glad I savored every single episode instead of rushing the whole series, and I'm glad I still have the two Gaidens to look forward to. It was so worth it to see Annerose come down for Reinhard's wedding, haven't seen her in forever.

Most of this episode had me smiling the entire way, even Oberstein's interruption, I just laughed.

Makes me wonder though, if Yang were still alive, would Reinhard want him there? It was also sad that Ruenthal had to die two months prior, perhaps if Reinhard and Hilda announced their engagement beforehand, Ruenthal would've set his differences aside, or postponed his betrayal.

I am not really sure about his "feelings" though, but whatever it is I think it is still appropriate to his character..

What bugs me about Oberstein is that he should have been perfectly capable of foreseeing the reactions to his action, yet he still acted the way he did. It makes me think that he is actually going out of his way to be hated by everyone around him.
Or maybe he was just pissed enough to make a rash decision unlike his usual self? I guess we'll know soon enough.

The fact that Reinhard and Hilda can't call each other by their names only reinforces the insurmountable distance between them that's probably there to stay permanently. It was nice seeing Annerose-sama again. 5/5.

Ten episodes only to conclude the Rubinsky/Terraists/Julian storylines? I'm really curious to see how it all ends.

I'm surprised there wasn't more to Oberstein's announcement. Simply stating the presence of riots didn't exactly seem like something to bother Reinhard with, which makes me suspect he means to tell him something else that can't be mentioned in front of the public. Although in that case, he could have just asked to see him privately. But this once again demonstrates how Oberstein will act as the conduit for animosity for the sake of the Empire and I'm fully convinced he takes on this role to purposely shield Reinhard.

Ironic how the Terraists (and Rubinsky) are now the last loose end of threats in this story. The Goldenbaum Dynasty fell, the Alliance was abolished, Truniht met his end, Yang Wenli is gone, and Reuenthal's rebellion has been quelled. Yet the radical rock worshipers have managed to crawl around and survive.
