Walter went out like an absolute chad. Also the 'no one is sure of the exact time he died' is because no one had the guts to check if he was dead or not

[@TinyWaveTV]

True😭 the part i included, right when he closes his eyes as the terrified guards are walking up the stairs... i felt a lump in my throat every time i had to go through it while editing...

[@goleogthais]

they say he's still sitting on those stairs, never rotting, always smiling.....

Oberstein's final conclusion felt like a response to the words of the Westerland survivor.

[@antonhallergren588]

Nothing compares to the void after finishing it. Edit note: the final battle is to show the void of Yang. Yang would've never fought that battle but Reinhard and Julian are not 5D chess players. They're normal humans and just like the many other mishapps due to human error in this story the final battle is just yet another one. I've never spoken to a single person who watched the whole thing that isn't in agreement it is one of the best shows ever. Like not just in anime. Note: ppl who dislike this show probably don't get it isn't set up in traditional anime arcs but rather it follows a story that takes place over 10 novels. In anime terms this is one very long arc hence why the climax is over 80 eps in.

[@TinyWaveTV]

The void of Yang was so real 😓 It was like Julian got TOO hung up on trying to read Reinhard, that he failed to see "the better way(s)" Wenli would've most probably think of... And yeah, one simply can not size this up based on anime standards.

Your singing exactly captures the mood of the last OP, and how it's a perfect ending song for the series as a whole. It's kind of bittersweet, reminiscing about the past, but also kinda hopeful for the future, a constant back and forth. And your pics are perfect too: from gloomy Kaiser Reinhard, to young hopeful Reinhard and Siegfried aiming for the stars. o7

[@TinyWaveTV]

Thank you for saying that~ 🥹 and this was exactly what i was going for with the pics, so happy you mentioned it 😭💫🫡

[@Cykeys]

I personally like to think that this entire show is actually just an in-universe historical docudrama. Mostly because it explains some of the dialogue choices the characters make.

I first read the novel when I was 11 (It was hugely influential in the Chinese web novels/sci-fi community in the 90s, which my dad fortunately was in and introduced to me) - I definitely don't think I understood everything at that age, but I recall the emptiness of finishing it too vividly. It is the first time I've ever truly thought about ideology, history, philosophy and politics. LOGH isn't perfect in reflecting the complexity of these heavy topics, but it inspired many (including me) to think about the realities of our world in an arguably more profound (or at least different) manner. Thank you for the amazing review - it definitely inspired me to rewatch this masterpiece. Your thoughtful and funny comments refreshed my childhood memories and allowed me to enjoy the series even more!! PS. Notice how Reinhard and Julian sat on the same side of the table? It could be symbolic of the outcome of the negotiation, but also I read somewhere that the empty space was supposed to be for Yang and Kircheis 😭😭

[@TinyWaveTV]

Your dad is a legend and so are you 🫡 Thank YOU for watching~ 🥹💫 PS. 😭

[@DIEGhostfish]

The world of LoGH is one of pure ideology. There isn't really any interethnic competition, and there's no real thought given to any major religion espescially in the FPA, the Terraists are a fringe cult with just enough members to do conspiracies. So those sorts of challenges and the methods of coming to settlements about them aren't really considered when examining either democracy or autocracy. In that way it is a *very* japanese work, mirroring them socially in a lot of ways. And even then it still glosses over the economic and social policy sides of things from the right or the left, except as they relate to the idea of a soldier being "an unemployed man with a gun" in the bits about society breaking down with the skilled technician shortage. It's certainly a good first look, at political concepts, but only an initial opener.

[@DIEGhostfish]

Heck, the closest it comes to covering separatism, localism, or federalism is Iserlohn's brief independence, and at the very end with the Imperial Parliament having some form of plabetary representation structure. It just flows from the assumption that massive multiplanetary states will be the default.

[@reformedpeter-timesoul9778]

I have loved this series as soon as I found it on YT. Great content, tiny channel, but I like it.

[@TinyWaveTV]

Thank you so much~🥹🫡

[@DIEGhostfish]

LoGH is eating good for covers, you've mastered OP4 and Gwar Gura of all people opened her concert with OP1 (And Hololive got a whole animation. Ironically the one named after Reuyenthal didn't get his place in the intro.)

[@TinyWaveTV]

yO I just saw this hololive thing and it's FABULOUS 🤩

[@DIEGhostfish]

Julian sallying out with 6000 ships against potentially more than 50 thousand was where I personally checked out for a while. I know about some of the deaths that result from it and don't like it

[@002meow]

To be honest, if Julian just didn’t fought him that would be better for both sides

[@antonhallergren588]

​@@002meowthis is the thing in lotgh. This is the kinda shit ppl have tried to pull historically. Not everyone is a logical genius 5D chess player like Yang.

The final battle was…definitely unnecessary

[@antonhallergren588]

Well it is what humans do. We are not rational or logical. We just get that impression from Yangs presence up to the point where he no longer is there. That's the point of the battle too. You know damn well they were like "hey maybe this could work hypothetically, somehow, maybe, lets go for it" while Yang would've pondered for like a week finding another way.

[@fortunate4260]

Would you be willing to do a watch journal for Rose of Versailles at some point? You may find the main character looks rather familiar

[@TinyWaveTV]

It's been on my radar actually soooo we'll see~🤭

[@DIEGhostfish]

Golden Wings annoys me because of the Manga based artstyle, it isn't bad for every character though holy shit young Siegfreid's eyes are massive, but they changed ship designs, I wanted tl see Reinhardt in an OVA Imperial destroyer with its boxy front and tons of short range guns vs a cruiser. Also they MASSACRED my baby. Poor Iserlohn, even the DNT version looks better than that!

[@DIEGhostfish]

Julian should have proposed some simulated battles. Just for old times' sake. Though I do wonder if dialing down the power on those lasers/particle cannons would also reduce their range to not really work as simulated fire.

[@TinyWaveTV]

Interesting proposition~ if certain decisions hadn't aggravated the situation, it could be like, talk first, [simulate] battle next instead of the other way around and losing so many lives along the way...

[@DIEGhostfish]

[@thecanadianempire8767]

I enjoyed you're look at LOGH it was a entertaining and fun ride. I personally don't like the way the show wrapped up Terraists amounted to nothing, they should have been a Political Movement rather then a cult and Iserhon should have won rather then the Empire, it felt like that was the direction things were going until the author changed his mind and rushed out a Ending where the Empire wins and Terraists are quickly dealt with and vague hints about it reforming.

Will you interweave the Gaidens into chronological order or watch Gaiden 1 then 2, then thr abomination of Golden Wings?

[@TinyWaveTV]

When there's a chronological order and a release order i often go for the latter, but i'm not sure with this... what do you suggest? I've heard that movie is bad here and there now i'm so curious...might actually watch it first 😂

[@DIEGhostfish]

@@TinyWaveTV There's going to be Falshbacks in the first gaiden to events not actually made in full until the second. Honestly I lean towards chronological for the Gaidens, I did release and got very confused. Also if you're Ani-waving it the whole first gaiden's all out of order and mislabled alread, comments on the first post will explain the order therein. Each Gaiden is more or less chronologicial within itself but there's bits of Gaiden 2 that happen in between (And a book event only animated in Golden Wings the movie, which also includes inaccurate recaps of other events in the gaiden!) Which will be weird because Gaiden 2 is digitally animated like the redraws the dvd inserted into early seasons while Gaiden1 is traditional cel animation like the later seasons.

[@DIEGhostfish]

Basically ESPESCIALLY for the Reinhard bits I recommend chronological

[@TinyWaveTV]

@DIEGhostfish Yo i'm already confused😭😂 why did they have to make it like this aaaaa Thank you for the explanation~ 🙇‍♀️

[@TheKeyser94]

Maybe my opinion is controversial, but I really not like the ending of the original Legend of the Galactic Heroes, is basically giving an endorsement to the aristocracy even with the "reforms" that Reinhard did, actually not change much the status quo, even that the author want to play both ways and kill all the main characters, and left the future uncertain, because there is no way that the Empire would keep the Free Planets Territory with their economy basically in shambles, they didn't in the past, and they wont now, and to be honest I really didn't like how the anime portrayed Reinhard as this tactical genius when his only strategy is going forward and attack not matter the collateral damage, the only reason why he win the Imperial Civil War is because he was fighting nobles dumber than him.

[@TinyWaveTV]

I think this ending -when it comes to the future of heinessen and the republicans- wasn't supposed to be one that ties all loose ends and leaves no rooms for uncertainties...things were said and promises were made, but much is left to do which is gonna be a whole other story, left untold. And about Reinhard... you got a point 🤔 but gotta be careful, or else Reuenthal's ghost will haunt us for offending his kaiser 😅🤣

[@TheKeyser94]

​@@TinyWaveTV I really not understand Reuenthal's, he was falsely accused of treason, but instead of doing a rebuttal, he chose to own the treason accusations even that they weren't true, and his only crime was the sleep with the daughter of the prime minister that Reinhard plotted to kill and used Siegfried death as a excuse, and to make things worse, Mettimeyer go to war with his best friend only because his Keiser order it, without even question it, even that they were best friends for years, Reuenthal were one of the few that actually had brains and question the obvious power hunger nature of Reinhard, it more obvious in New Thesis, you should see that, even that end in the middle, before the Empire conquer the Free Planets Alliance, New Thesis not make excuses for Reinhard like the original did, like giving a excuse for him when he let two million people die, for political reasons, this time he do it by his own free will, not because Oberstein no say nothing to him and let the attack happen, and give more agency to the disagreement between him and Siegfried, because Reinhard show that he was no different from the rest of the nobility not matter his "noble goals".

[@TinyWaveTV]

@TheKeyser94 i don't think Reu fully understands himself either... i too had a hard time with him in entry #11 🥲 Interesting point about the new thesis 🤔 i plan to watch it once i'm done with the Gaidens.
