Seriously, what are you wearing Attenborough? LMAO!

I'm glad I'm not the only one that keeps seeing these death flags on Schenkopp whenever he goes Rambo.

Well dam that Schenkopp is so overpowered, but the thing is why do they attack him in pairs? lol that way they lost easily, are they supposed to be retarded or its a point where the plot drops a bit?

So Yang became indoctrinated by the crazy logic of his "subordinates" and became a rebell. Im rooting for them to die now, all of them. Stupid hypocrits.
Lets force a war NOBODY ASKED FOR. Instead of fake your death and hide. Nonono. Risk billions of peoples life.

The worst of all is Schenkopp - "hurrdurr you cant kill a man for the sake of peace and billions of people" same Schenkopp "Watch me murder dozens of guys who are just doing their job protecting law, order and peace" btw I fled from the empire when I was not able to make my own dicisions, the same empire the new empire replaced! haha Im so righteous!

Cant wait to see which asspulls happen next in alliance territorry.

PS: Attenborough as a space pirat was great though

Last episode's discussion had a lot of people praising Schenkopp and the Rosenritters...but I'm so glad this episode's discussion isn't the same. Yeah they're pretty BA, but they've also seemed to me what Lebello called them this episode, "warmongers." Schenkopp may be fighting for his values, but he always seems too eager to go out and fight. That's my perception anyways.

Yeah, or given how much respect Reinhard has for Yang, I bet if Yang asked for the favor, Reinhard wouldn't mind giving him extra protection or something, on some irrelevant faraway planet at the edge of the Empire's territory. I mean Yang has always just wanted to live a normal peaceful life after all.

Pretty much in line with what I thought regarding that Rosenritter captain(?), when he answered Lennenkampf's question about the Rosenritters betraying the Empire. Yes it's true that the Empire was bad and unfair, but that same empire no longer exists. I understand hatred can't be so easily changed, and it's hard to see the same type of government (autocracy) as different, but if you truly want peace for everyone, you'd try to compromise first before rebelling and killing others. They should ask themselves this: "IS the new Empire truly that bad? Has there been improvement, been the same, or things have become worse?"

Well maybe that's one point this series is highlighting, that it's hard to change your point of view on something even when that something changes. As part of the audience, I can see that Reinhard is making changes to improve the lives of the people, and he detests the Goldenbaum Dynasty. But the Rosenritters (as well as other pro-democracy people) don't know that. They only see the Empire as bad, and democracy as the "free" and better type of government.

glad to see Im not the only one who gets upset by their actions, now with some distance to the whole show I certainly accept it as a great sci fi epos, but I feel everything would have been way better if the Yang fangroup wouldnt be so .. stupid. They either asspull victories or do totally nonsense.
Since I rewatched Code Geass some time ago, I really feel this shows lacks the "change something from within" perspective. Yes Reinhard is doing that, but hes pretty much leading everything anyway.

man Im still angry

Dusty you magnificent bastard!

Everyone is attacking Yang for starting a war out of pride, but seem to give Reinhard a free pass for starting a war out of pure greed. Yang is the most justified out of the two.

I again thought Schenkopp was going to die and that young guy would take over... Was he perving in Charlotte at the end there?

I thought leaving Lennenkampt (should be Stalinkampt :p) the rope was intentional, but nope that was stupidity.

Great episode but again Dusty killed it in incredible fashion. What a guy.

Not only did he make a terrible mistake by leaving the rope behind, but he also removed the cloth from Lennenkanpt's mouth so he would probably have bitten his tongue off anyways.

Oh snap, there's no way back now and things keep getting worse.

Pirate Attenborough was pure gold and a needed breath of comedy haha.

Schenkopp was awesome as well and our man Cazellnu will also join.

What a bloody episode.
So Consul Lennenkampt is dead. This is definitely a death sentence for the Free Planets Alliance.

I cannot really see Lebello as an evil man, he's just someone who was overrun by his circumstances. As he said himself, he was a man charged with great responsibility in the most difficult of times.

Anyway, I enjoyed that close combat scenes. I love urban warfare too much. All in all, I think Lennenkampt's death was far too predictable. As of now, how many Imperial Admirals have preferred death to dishonor? Even if it wasn't a matter of honor, killing himself was the better deed for rendering the exchange worthless, though it didn't totally work thanks to that makeup and cover-up.

An ignoble life or an ignoble death. I guess an ignoble life is preferable, as you still can hope for a somewhat noble death. On the other hand, an ignoble death means an ignoble death to everything, which tarnishes even the best of lifes, whereas an ignoble life can achieve redemption through a noble death.

Nevertheless, this is an open rebellion. The military has risen against the government, both of the Alliance's and the Imperial. Giving that they are so desperately fighting for a senseless resistance and futile principles, how are they even different from the National Salvation Committee?

Though I've always respected Yang as a character and kind of a fellow historian, I cannot help but start to progressively abandon his side and consolidate my affection for the Neue Reich (not that I was a FPA fan anyway, I've always rooted for Paul von Oberstein). Only a fool could turn a blind eye to the reforms that Kaiser Reinhard von Lohengramm has brought to the Galaxy, and acts such as these are the ones that transform a soft autocrat into the cruelest of tyrants.

The Chairmen are in no way the same. Joanne Lebello would dare to sell a citizen for the sake of the Alliance, whereas Job Truniht would sell (and sold) the Alliance for the sake of a citizen, which is coincidentally named Job Truniht.

As always, Rosenritter with that juicy plot armor. Seriously what's up with the stormtrooper aim? God damn. Whatever. Im glad the animes showing that both sides aren't black and white. In the first season you can tell there were clearly evil people like Braunschweig. Now I don't even know who to root for anymore. Me likey

as much as i like yang, i just can't side all the actions his side doing. this is just not yang's old ideals i know.
as for shcenkopp, i really dunno what kind of democracy he will to form. in LOGTH universe at least, i can't see that "perfect" democracy to happen.

loled so much on lenenkrapt face when seeing that lebbelo had soled him.

This was a good episode. However, I do have some problems with it.

First of all, the Rosenritters have some unrealistic plot armor, sheesh. Secondly, I still feel silly about these battle axes. C’mon, it’s far in the future, isn’t there something better, like, I dunno, a laser sword? Well, maybe that’s out of the book for obvious reasons…

The worst offender of all was Stalin’s death. Leaving a rope just there? Really? I feel like this show is inconsistent with its take on smart characters. There’re some too smart, and others too freakin dumb. Annoying to say the least.

That aside, solid episode.

Great Stalin kidnapping sequence during the episode, whole battling it out on the stairs combat was done brutally but respectably. Looks like the almost the whole Yang gang is now there to start planning next move.

Attenbourgh as a character really made this whole episode stand out, very bizzare but great seeing him like this

The whole rope blunder is just shamefull, even from Yang's men, allowing  Stalin... I mean Lennenkanpt to end himself peacefully and placing alliance forces at an dissadvantage in the end.

Lennenkampf is the least interesting admiral of the imperial side but his death is one of my favorites (after Kircheis and
).

Because it is one of the moments that Yang is observed to be more psychologically affected.

"Just for this one thing alone, I'm going to hell for sure".
"Yang thought to himself: To be forced towards an ignoble death or to be forced to live an ignoble life".
