I dropped this show when the streams stopped.

The show turned to shit very fast after defeating the fire dragon

>>138781436
I dropped it a little after that, how is it now? Is it really that bad? I miss the lighthearted fun season 1 somewhat had.

>>138781426

Only one I missed because no stream was last week, and there's one already up today.

>>138781510
It's pretty bad, but it looks like its going to swing from shit back to NIPPONESE STRONG! JSDF CAN DO NO WRONG! for this episode. I think by the time this is done if I recommend the show to anyone I'll just tell them to skip all the episodes that aren't that.

Combat drops are pretty much obsolete because they just take much longer to prepare than helicopter insertion. The only time when combat drops are really done are when you are dropping regiment sized units (in this case the entire Japanese airborne) or dropping heavy equipment which the Japs don't use either.

Yeah, all she wants is to be gangraped like how they do it in the doujins she read, but no one is giving her the D

It's already demoralizing for the "great" empire and the public that the enemy can just forcibly open their gates, drop soldiers anywhere, and kill most of their soldiers within a few hours with really small casualties. And they just stopped and left. It's like they're saying that they can come in at anytime, no need for sieges. I'm surprised they're not Hannibal-after-Cannae levels of scared right now.

I'd get pretty scared if I were locked up in a small room, not knowing when I'll be out, not knowing if it's night or day, and with my life on the hands of people that might kill me, even if I'm part of the royal family, probably especially that I'm a part of the royal family.

you can tell by when the food comes in, or how far the candle has been reduced. It's still nothing to be a drama queen about. All those nobles have a higher chance of being killed or tortured, and none of them bitched about their fate like Pina. Boredom is the only thing going for her.

>>138791957
He's nothing but a brute with no critical thinking skills at all. It's not that he thinks what he's doing is a good idea really, he doesn't really think much at all. He just blindly takes Tyule's advice. And again, he's very stupid and not capable of critical thinking, so he isn't suspicious of Tyule at all because she managed to get him crowned Emperor. For an idiot like him, that makes her the most trustworthy and reliable advisor ever, because a pea brain like him can't imagine anything better than being emperor.

Hence he takes all her advice and assumes it must be brilliant even if doesn't see the merit in it himself. He just goes "oh yeah that's good you're totally right," then proceeds to ensure the Empire is destroyed

eh, yeah, but from a narrative point of view, it's ridiculous. We see how events are progressing. Pina is in prison for 1 day? 2?

At the same time we have wounded and dying soldiers, we have a freaking child keeping her cool after her parents died and working for peace and helping the marquis guy.

Meanwhile Pina reacts in the most intense way, screaming more than freaking no-daddy elf, after 1 day of being alone.
While all these stuff happen to the rest of the characters.

It makes her really, really pathetic and lame. Like a spoiled little girl.

They just ship in more guns and bombs through the gate and now they have triple the guards and aren't allowing in any newcomers.

Far left or far right for me. But all together is even better.

>>138792918
It's not their choice, its yours. You're the leader who must decide if our foe is someone you can handle on an even playing field or not. If you choose to let their pride drive you into a corner then that by definition makes you a pussy with no real spine. Someone who isn't fit to be a leader. Yes, you should be taking peoples feelings and thought into consideration on the matter of a foreign power coming to slap your shit when it does happen but you should be prepared for when it does happen and know if you have the firepower and tactics to make sure you don't get destroyed. Don't be a prideful asshole who gets everything your nation built up destroyed especially when the power gap is something like the empires and the nippons.

Doctors can't screen for magic powers, right? Guards can fall asleep to magic. Raiding the armory would give him some guns to use at least, and since the Japanese were so kind to let some senators test fire their weapons he has people who know how to use them.

Yup. In Roman times, wars like that were civilisation-ending events. Lose, and your cities are razed, your fields burnt, your men get killed, your children sold in slavery and your wives raped.
And I really don't get Zorzal. Follow Tyuule's advice... disaster. Follow Tyuule's advice again... disaster. And so on. I'm surprised he hasn't offed her yet. (But glad. I like her.)

>>138794641
Depending on the bow and numbers employed a volley could effectively outrange the effective range of a non scoped rifle due to ballistic arc and pure saturation. Yes the JDF could have safely fired from out of range of the bows but that would disallow targeting the comissars specifically.

It was also a wooded area so sightlines were an issue forcing them close as well.

>>138792544
Were you not paying attention. They already had troops on the walls that cleared out the guards/external archers and dragoon/wyverns. The paras landed pretty far away from the city, the guard reinforcements had enough time to make it back to the gate to try to shut it closed.

I assumed we're talking about the Jade palace battle since we're in-line quoting the bow and arrow issue.

Anyway, the massacre of empire soldiers at the Bassoon prison, if we try to justify it they are at war and they basically assaulted the capital of the enemy faction. Being zerg'd and outnumbered by the empire will give them casualties. So, in short it's to kill or be killed before they get to retreat.
