I loved LOTGH but I couldn't finish it after..... well after Yang Wen-Li......... the show just felt empty. I couldn't finish S3 let alone watch S4. Should I go back and finish or?

He didn't answer the call when history rang, so his life essence was essentially spent and he died ignobly as a result.

He would've loved to 105 years old if he seized power.

So, Hitler?

>>211825332
Anime haters are not kino

Kircheis should have been the emperor.

>>211825576
I'm the same. Thought he was an annoying faggot but I was waiting for him to become a Ceasar figure and save the Free Planets, becoming based before his inevitable assassination but instead we got what we got and I lost motivation to finish.

Hitler disliked monarchism

>>211825746
This, he should have done the coup. Absolute blunder. He could have given up power later on if he felt that bad about it.

>>211825576
The show at this point is annoying, because it's always the same
>Alliance gets to point they will easily crush the empire
>Alliance eats shit because they screw over Yang for no reason and go full retard because the author wants copium why Japan should be in charge by Nippon Kaigi and the Emperor.
By the time Yang gets finally ack'd it's like the 10th time this has happened.
The other hilarious thing about the show is how genuinely misogynistic it is, not even in a feminist way, but in a way that literally has women complaining they are total failures of humanity because they can't make a good sammich.

>>211825746
He had chance to become Cincinnatus, but instead he chose to reinstall corrupt government

>>211825478
Rudolf literally purged the cripples and degenerates and promoted all his Aryan buds to royalty

>>211826401
>The other hilarious thing about the show is how genuinely misogynistic it is,
There are only five female characters
>Jessica
>Frederica
>Annerose
>Hilda
>Katerose

Jessica runs for office but fails to do anything.
Frederica is has masturbating to Yang since she met him when she was 14, making their relationship weird
Annerose, who has a personality, abandons his young brother when he needed him most
Hilda who is probably the best-written female character
Katerose who exist so Julian can get his dick wet

Some prodigy Reinhardt was.

There isn't anything particularly Hitler about him.
Killing the families of political rivals probably predates discovery of fire.

Wish I could see a LOTGH space battle with a blockbuster budget.
It will never happen but a man can dream of classical music and carnage among the stars

>>211825776
Go back tranny.

>>211827982
Netflix will get a hold of the rights eventually

>>211826501
Katerose is a weird inclusion and I'm not really sure why she's in because it's the last quarter of the show. Nominally it's character development for Julian like Yang and Reinhard being inept and unfamiliar with talking to a woman and not waxing poetically about politics but the show has so much development to do with Julian that she kind of ends up absent and then shows up occasionally to stand there

>>211827416
Reinhard got hard carried by IRONSHIELD Muller.

>>211825332

hes more of a napoleon obviously and theres clear alexander inspiration as well.

>>211828076
God please no, they already destroyed Castlevania
>Makes christians a bunch of evil cultists with blatant anti Christian messaging
>Glorified the Haiti massacre as a "revolution"
>Inserts gay woke shit in the last season
Though I did like the scene in the first season where the night creatures enter the church and call out the priest for his hypocrisy before eating him

It's enjoyable if I look past the gay shit and blatant demonization of Christianity which is antithesis to the original storyline

Job Trunicht is the best character in the show. He's so scummy that a character who betrayed his lifelong leader for no reason and killed millions in the process has to kill him before his suicide just to stop him from weaseling his way out of profiting off his death. Even that dog Oberstein couldn't find a way to take total advantage of him. Especially compared to Rubinsky who is a selfish but magically omnipotent and cartoonish evil, Trunicht is just slimey. He doesn't have magic bombs and escape tunnels, he just has other scumbags and bribes.

>>211827416
>>has to be carried by his ginger secret love
This.
In the battle of Amitzar, Yang was actually winning despite being completely outnumbered. He defeated following fleets during it:
>Kempf
>Reunthal
>Mittemayer
>Bittenfeld
That's like half of Reinhard's fleet with light casualties.
He only decided to retreat after Kircheis entered battle battlefield by passing the minefield using screffon particles, something not even Yang could foresee.

>>211828114
Like I said, her point is literally to get Julian's dick wet.

>>211827982
Doesn't Disney Star Wars provide that?
It's literally called Star Wars, you'd think it would provide.

>>211824712 (OP)
He reminded me more of Stalin.

>>211828366
He's what I imagine all politicians wish they could be

>>211825977
Yang is an immoral and hypocritical character I think, because he knows what the out come will be from him not doing what needs to be done, and he does it anyway over some dumb principles of muh democracy that won't be upheld by him sticking to them anyway as the country gets conquered directly as a result of his inaction

>>211826401
The alliance was shown repeatedly from start to end to be ran by a bunch of corrupt backstabbing snakes because democracy promotes those people into power inherently.
The argument for democracy was that it was a compromise and at least it had to keep certain pretenses and base levels for the people because it was easy to get backstabbed by the other cunts when you pissed off the people too much. At the same time it can never accomplish anything great and will always struggle with reforms, rot, degeneracy, internal strife, etc.

Fuck bros...

>>211826401
The empire has massive plot armor throughout the whole thing and it's just super annoying desu
Author was way too ham fisted about simping for competent authoritarianism vs. flawed democracy.

Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong for the democratic side, meanwhile empire can be in the worst situation and will always find ways out of it due to their Mary sue commanders

Is about how I remember it

>>211829587
You know what is ironic?
Yang calls Greenhill a "fascist like Rudolf Goldenbaum" for doing the coup and trying to fix FPA.
Meanwhile, Yang has himself seen that Trunicht employs the Patriotic Knights, who literally murder Trunicht's political opponents.
They are literal Trunicht's personal SS troops.
How is FPA democratic when there are literal SS troops?

>>211826682
>speaks english as a second language
what did raul mean by this?

If anything, the so called representative of freedom, rights and democratic principles Yang ended up being the most dogmatic of the main cast

more than anything the people on the empire seems to be more pragmatic in their policy

>>211829879
>simping for competent authoritarianism
Are people really this dense? The show takes ample time to hammer home the fact that autocracy on its absolute peak form is ephemeral and its natural state is decadence, oppression and inbred stupidity. A system infinitely worse than democracy on the simple fact that it's rigidly class-based. You just think it'd be great because you'd be a noble in it, when in truth you'd be a stomped peasant.

>>211829987
It was so bad it honestly would have been better if they had yang bitch out explicitly because he knew what he would have to do.

Rather than it being about his principles which make no sense.

>>211824712 (OP)
BOTH the empire and the rebels have German names and aesthetics. your parallel makes zero sense.

>>211830252
I dunno I think the show makes autocracy and democracy look similarly bad the exception being the references to the time of Rudolf(pbuh)

>>211829987
>>211830262
It's not principles, idiots, it is pragmatism. He knows the consequences of seizing power would turn the material conditions of all citizens in the FPA significantly worse in the long run. He is a historian and thinks in historical terms, not short-term.

>>211830379
The material conditions of a citizen in the empire are overall much worse than one in the alliance. The story just throws you a curve ball with having a brilliant, brave and good-natured ruler on the autocracy side, to see if you'd sway. Reinhardt is an anomaly. Yang himself says sure, I'd live to serve under him personally, but I know his rule and its quality cannot last.

maka earth great again!!

Trunicht is portrayed as a vile bastard, but in real life he is just an average leader.

While pretending to submit, he was plotting to democratize the Empire by establishing a constitution and parliament. Though politically corrupt, he was more consistent than Yang in his cold, emotionless attitude.
In other words, in our world, there are no Reinhards, no Yang Wen-lis, and no other heroes who support them.

because in this world, Treunicht men are playing the pieces.
There are no heroes in our galaxy.

You mean the ones that don't get assassinated by the CIA.

>>211829903

>>211831768
There is literally nothing cool about masked thugs beating people up at random to instill fear into the populace.

Then again you seem to be the domestic terrorist sympathizing type so I'll just chalk you up to monumental retardation and selfish behaviour.

Then it turns out that the PKC isn't even FPA citizens at the top, it's infiltrators from Fezzan.

Really makes you think... that democracy's problems stem from allowing autocracy to continue to exist.
