Reminds me of the time I did my zerg guide for SC2... wrote 30 pages in word total with pictures and shit, then rewrote most of it. If you're curious search for it, and expect that kind of epic amount of quality again. Btw, I think I'm a tsundere myself :| Thing is, I always say I don't like watching love stories/dramas but then, they end up as the best genre of anime I watched -.-; the fuck is wrong with me... | ||

Don't click the spoiler for funsies! It's not worth hearing me tell the story when you can have it told in full glory by the people who came up with it. + Show Spoiler [ LoGH season 1] +  ENDING WAS SO SAD... That was an amazing ending, although it left me empty and so far the beginning of season 2 (like 4 or 5 episodes) haven't begin to fill up the whole that was left. I got really into the idea of the epic journey and all that shit, they got me hook, line and sinker. LOVE. IT.The show seemed to have an appropriately sophisticated political situation for all the parties all through season 1, and now in season 2 it seems all that went away for some filler... Can't wait to see how they'll pull me back in... The character designs for this show are so archetypical, i can't get enough of it. And I love the german names in japanese, I walk around trying to copy the pronounciation xD "Reuentahl, Mit-ter-meyuh" Having a blast so far, really excited that it also got its hands dirty. I have to say I keep being reminded of A Song of Ice and Fire (this is also up in the times so might be why it comes to mind), just in the scope of the story and the sort of archetypical pulp fiction, bordering on cliché, but just pulled off with enough care and fan-service (not the anime fan service, I mean actually giving war-fans a war and blonde fans some blonde main characters xD) to make it stroke you everywhere at once and make you forget you're being fooled and teased. Great show, more to come for sure, will be exciting! | ||

The climax of season 2 really feels like it could be the climax of the entire show, when its actually just the half way point! | ||

Order is something like Gaiden 1 (Hundred Billion Lights)->Gaiden 2(Spiral Labyrinth)->My Conquest is the Sea of Stars->Overture to a New War->Main OVA. TECHNICALLY Golden Wings would be somewhere inside of Gaiden 1, but it also sucked really badly and should be avoided unless you like the though of Iserlohn being the Death Star. | ||

Oh, okay - well it shouldn't be a problem then... I thought there was a movie that took place a bit later on in the series, but I get confused. EXTREMELY minor thing  : I went from Overture to episode 3, and felt it re-told alot of the stuff. Why does the movie officially only cover the first two episodes, from my experience, I think you could easily skip episode 3 as well. | ||

Its been a while, but I thought that the movie pretty much just covered the lead up to Astate, and then the Astate Encounter, which was episode 1/2. | ||

I think episode 3 was like 70% covered by the movie, 30% new stuff... The big thing is that the movie ends with Yang's new assignment though, and going from there to episode 3 which ALSO ends with him getting the new assignment felt a little redundant! Like I said though, this is minutiea at its most minute! | ||

But when I think about it now, it was probably better for him to die, because the Westerland Incident made it evident that Kircheis' relationship with Reinhard was going to be very soured in the future, so I'm glad that Kircheis could sacrifice himself for Reinhard while they were still on good terms. However one of my favorite parts of the series is how Kircheis' death ends up changing and shaping Reinhard. Pay close attention to how he develops throughout the course of the series. Win the universe, Reinhardo-sama ;; | ||

Reinhardo-sama, most beautiful character in an anime, or mostest beautiful character? Obviously you'd all have to disregard your personal deviances (as did I), but I honestly think it's gorgeous to the point of being over-the-top, just the way I like my gorgeous :D | ||

This episode was about 100x harder for me to watch than anyone else because I was under the impression this was a 13 episode series -- so, yeah...would of been quite the ending Now, I thought this direction was a bit predictable based on how ep 12 ended, and it's a pretty cliche idea used in time travel stories (trying to fix a seemingly permanent fate), but I guess that's not a big deal as long as it's executed well. I'm curious how they'll explain this compared to other stories though, because the world line example makes it seem like this wouldn't be an issue (she shouldn't die every time, she should simply die in a different line). | ||
