He gave his life for the Empire.
He also had the very clear idea that State > Ruler.
He was very important for the Empire and it being able to run smoothly, regardless of how controversial his ways might have been.

I wish I had the forethought to take screenshots and clips that I found emotionally moving from this when I went through it.
>>146811051
I did that through my whole first watch, then I lost my harddrive.
Somehow ended up being able to get some of my OC back from kind anons though.

Man, the Empire had so many likeable characters it felt sometimes unfair.
I only liked Attenborugh and Yang from the FPA, and even Yang could get boring whenever he went full Zhuge Liang.

I don't think anyone expects the remake to be half, or even a quarter as good as the original OVAs.
The action scenes are likely to be better (or, at least, look a lot nicer), but everything else is likely to be heavily diluted.
>>146812059
Yeah it's crazy on a rewatch, when you get to the scene where all of Reinhard's admirals are introduced (and there are fucking LOADS of them, it just goes on and on), and pretty much every single one is memorable, and they don't even start off with Fahrenheit.
>>146812263
The one thing that I hope they don't change is the genders of Reinhard's crew. Make the FPA characters women, it doesn't really matter for most of them, but the Empire needs to be all about undiluted germanic machismo.
>>146812826
Agreed.But I would fucking love it if they made Rubinsky a black woman like they did in the manga.
>>146813000
Lol, I think the mangaka said that she just wanted to draw one more single woman and Rubinsky was chosen.
>>146813000
Sassy black woman Rubinsky works I guess, I've never read the manga adaptation. How does that work out with her, uh, son? Or is that just not in there?

What's the point of even having Mecklinger, what did he do that was of significance?
>>146816255
Somehow I have the memory of him fucking up the least. Might be because he did less overall.
>>146816255
He was mainly a rear support admiral that organized logistics and protecting them en route to the front lines. He would usually be in working with one or two other admirals to help in such an important duty that is supply and logistics.
The unsung heroes really.
Mecklinger also handled the more personnel matters, in other words, like delivering bad news to people (Kempff's family hearing about his death.)
