So who would you guys say is your favorite Imperial Admiral? I've always been something of a Muller man myself but then again Oberstein is also very awesome.

Daryl Surat posted:J.C. PAUL VON OBERSTEIN~! was never an Admiral! Oberstein's rank was Fleet Admiral, right? I mean, I know he wasn't out there making miracles happen but he did his thing and that thing was badass. On a side note, as I watched the show everytime someone went within range of Thor's Hammer I would end up swearing at my monitor. What is wrong with these people?

Wahlen was pretty badass. "I can't lose what I already lost." Also I did enjoy Bittenfeld just being a crazy sumbitch all the time.

Eronarn posted:Recently released high-resolution scans of the original character design sketches from LOGH have been analyzed by forensic scientists and in a stunning turn of events they say that this is all the confirmation they need to prove that Fahrenheit and Muller are not the same person! I don't see how you could possibly confuse Muller and Fahrenheit. They look totally different.

I honestly don't see a similarity in the two besides the fact that they are both men.

Eronarn posted:Cleanshaven, similar hairstyle, similar haircolor, neither have extremely distinctive mannerisms like the other admirals tend to have, I think they're the same rank too. You can tell them apart but they're some of the most similar-looking characters on the show. Honest Ray fucked around with this message at 12:44 on Sep 25, 2008 |

Eronarn posted:Oh, Muller rules (not as much as Wahlen but...). It's just that until he distinguishes himself it's hard to tell him apart from Fahrenheit, especially since both get fairly limited screen time. It gets easier once only one of them is still alive Wahlen is pretty much the man in all honesty. "I can't lose what I've already lost!"

Seriously, would the Rosenritter be half as hard if they just shot dudes? The only way Schenkopp with a gun would work if he merely pistol whipped you to death with it.

KlavoHunter posted:It should be noted that every strategy employed by Yang Wenli against Reinhard ultimately all operate on the same goal - the neutralization of Reinhard von Lohengramm. This is of course very much in-character for Yang (and ironically, for Oberstein, too) - Yang would like to keep battlefield casualties to a minimum, and the quickest way to end a battle (Or, indeed, a war) would be by removing the man at the top. In this respect, Reinhard's authoritarian Empire is far more vulnerable to this tactic, since the Empire ultimately relies on his supreme competence, though Reinhard acknowledges this and guides policies to counteract this. Still, the very same tactic is nowhere near as applicable to the democratic Alliance, and this is demonstrated by the fact that the Iserlohn Fleet did not fall apart completely after Yang's death, and that any competent man could succeed him - in this case, Julian Minci - and they STILL went on to win one last battle. The last battle of the series, Reinhard let Julian get to him. Muller and Mittermeyer could have gunned his rear end down.

So where did you fellow classy gents first hear of this show? I went to a panel about it at an anime convention over the summer in 08 and I decided to burn through the show over my break. I then proceeded to offer anyone I knew who watched anime to give it a try and got my brother and two friends into the show, and both of my friends got people into the show. Its like this web of good taste that forms.

Vir posted:When I saw the new subforum title, I had to see if we had a thread on it. I just happened to finish this series earlier this fall. Wrong guy there. Ruenthal saw he was getting railroaded what with Lang dicking him, and the Earth Cult setting him up to fall with that rebellion, not to mention his own ambition. I don't think he would have turned without the outside impetus but when he saw what was happening he just embraced it because he was a man of ability and ambition. I hope I'm not getting my timeline messed up.

To be fair, even if it seems cliche, this show is pretty old so at the time it would have been totally boss.

I really need to check out some of the LoGH stuff thats outside the main series like the Gaidens. I imagine they are pretty awesome too? Whats the gist of them, which should I start with, etc? On a side note I find if you want o introduce people to the show, the first movie is a great introduction.

I always loved that part early on. Yang: You need to call the PKC off of Jessica Edwards Truniht: Call them off? Those guys are just some rogue group! Yang: Seriously. Call them off. Truniht: Fine, whatever.

The best part of Tytania was in the first episode when they rolled up into court and just hosed that dude up.

Captain Invictus posted:If there's one thing to complain about in LOGH, aside from the pretty boy-ness of some of the characters, it's the narrator's foreshadowing. They're really, really bad about it sometimes. And this was the last time the two would share a drink.

Ryand-Smith posted:I have a humble request for this thread. I would like to know the episodes where Yang goes through the "Alchol is humanity's friend" speech, and the episode where the infamous What is that scene is posted,(god this series was an amazing ride). I'm pretty sure the alcohol thing is really early on since I remember him wanting some brandy in his tea and Julian not being very helpful on that end.

DamnGlitch posted:The real functionality of Oberstein's game plan sets it apart from him just being a dick. I mean, it's completely logical and coldly cruel to the people turned into acceptable losses, but for as hot blooded and 'noble' as reinhard's tactics are they are honestly dumb as poo poo and ep 500 (I think) really shows how lovely any losses are and that there are no good losses, so if there are going to be any the numerically fewest is probably the best course of action. I'm going to assume you meant episode 50, but reading episode 500 made me laugh. It is quite a long series, haha.
