This is what every show with heros should remember
>>150085529
This reminds me, I should check when the next novel is getting released.
>>150085794
every time

This is what I'm loving about LotGH so far, it's hard to just root for one party. But let's not turn this into an image dump,lads.
>>150085843
>But let's not turn this into an image dump,lads.
The images have text in them, so it's fine. And a LoGH thread isn't going to get moved to /c/ or /e/ so there's nothing to worry about.
do you guys have that image showing how the enemy picks always the same battle formation and loses? something like this?
>>150085898
Good point.
>>150085952
No, but I have this.
Yang loved democracy, but democracy didn't love Yang.
Last one I have. I like this one a lot.
>>150085659
I realized this when I was very young. So many people haven't realized it at all.

Please keep politics on >>>/pol/

How old are you?

^this
>>150086214
Why would you even come to a thread about Legend of the Galactic Heroes if you think Hitler is an embodiment of evil? In case you haven't noticed, this is a show in which the galaxy is divided between the Space Nazis, Space Jews, and Space EU.

Is there anybody here who DOESN'T think Oberstein was always right?
>>150086372
Reminder that Oberstein did nothing wrong
>>150086432
Human lives can't be calculated that way.
>>150086432
I think he was mostly right (or if not right, then at least justified in some way) but putting Lang back into a position of power and then letting him do whatever he wanted even when Oberstein knew he was colluding with Rubinsky was 100% a terrible decision and will never understand what possessed him to do it.
>>150086432
Oberstein did nothing wrong
>>150086477
I like this quote. This generation heard that important people have important problems, so it developed important problems thinking that it would become important because of them.
>>150086528
wasn't Lang experienced and there was a personnel shortage on Phezzan
>>150085991
My sides are in Phezzan's orbit.
>>150086658
He was blatantly corrupt even before he got the job back. If I remember correctly Oberstein actually took him out of prison to reinstate him.
>>150086214
You're giving them too much credit
>>150086979
Evil gets you credit? Why didn't anybody tell me before? I could use a little credit.
>>150087108
You're not evil, though, just sad
>>150087171
Might as well turn up the evil then, right?
>>150087201
You don't have the stomach
>>150086214
>hitler? trump? those aren't embodiments of evil?
>>150087259
What sort of transplant do I need? Show me the man with the stomach.
LOGH was too good for this world
notice that it never takes sides
>>150087356
I'd say bear. Strong acids that will make the burden more bearable
>>150087433
It sort of does, honestly. Reinhard is too perfect.
>>150087495
except he's not, throughout the series he becomes more and more irrational and warlike
>>150087495
It gives Reinhard more screentime and favorability because modern people are inclined to agree more with Yang instead. Autocratic rule requires more of an explanation to be truly equal with people's assumptions about democracy.
>>150087495
I think the FPA killed itself and the root of everything that went wrong is Trunhit.
>>150087523
>warlike
I should hope so, considering that they were all at war. What was irrational about him?
>>150087584
The root of everything that went wrong is that the FPA follows European styled governance and lacks a strong constitution and separation of powers. Don't blame a bad actor for bringing down a bad government. In an existential sense, he's doing you a favor.
Only one I have
>>150086920
I loved that scene.
>>150087631
The people just pushed the responsibility of governance to the elected officials. The system was fine but people just didn't care that strongly until it was too late.
>>150086128
>I realized this when I was very young. So many people haven't realized it at all.
pls get over yourself and get outside, weeb
>>150087811
If the people can do that then the system shouldn't have allowed for it. The system was not fine. What sort of fine system fails?
>>150087852
It's the truth. I used to wonder to myself if any of my classmates would really choose evil if they were given the raw choice of evil versus good. I couldn't imagine it happening. That was the foundation with which I eventually arrived at a conclusion similar to the one in that image.
>>150087899
that is the shortcoming of democracy, we can elect this person to solve all our problems and then blame them when they fuck everything up
>>150087985
So the system wasn't fine.
>>150086658
I think Oberstein overestimated his authority, he thought Lang would had been smart enough not to do what he did.
And generally Oberstein was too busy during those times too.
What I really wanna know is why no one bitched more about him turning a blind-eye for the gun that was smuggled in and what killed Kircheis.
There is a zero chance that it was an accident or a mistake on his part, it was, 200% intentional.Also that faggio bitchboi who poisoned Reinhard fug u
>>150088009
it is fine when it can work for the people. Same as the autocracy under Reinhardt, but autocracy can stagnate like with the rest of the Goldenbaum.
>>150088066
with Kircheis alive the New Empire would be dualistic and inconclusive as sometimes Reinhard would follow Kircheis' advices
it's much easier to put a yoke on just one person which was Oberstein's goal from day one
>>150087495
Yang was the one that was too perfect
>>150088116
But if only Kircheis would had been alive, a lot of other things could had been avoided.
The time would had never stopped for the Magician.
>>150088147
he was lazy and insecure, the only instance of Yang losing his nerve and actually bothering to defend his position was on that phony trial
Good man right here.
>>150088080
Systems that can't survive in all circumstances aren't fine. Especially when they survive more poorly than their neighbors.
This one is my favorite.
I fucking love Sabagebu.
>>150088194
If the system is fine it doesn't have to be perfect. The neighbors were actually killed before them with Reinhardt's new order replacing the old.
>>150088147
All he had to do was lead the people and the government, but he was so hung up on his uniform. President Yang could have saved the universe.
>>150088257
You said that the system was fine in response to me saying that it died for a few particular reasons. You can't just throw your hands up and say that it's not perfect but it doesn't need to be.
You think this shit is deep?
Here's some fucking depth for you.
>>150088374
all the people had to do was elect better leaders, now the system works forever
>>150085529
A boy has a right to dream...
>>150085634
That hearing episode is among the best in the entire show.
>>150088426
If they fail to do that for whatever reason then it proves that the system was flawed to begin with for relying on that.
>>150088406
yui commenting on the reductionist nature of platonic thought
>>150088479
if the people fail then the system still works by expressing the will of the people. To sustain the system obviously the people would need to learn and evolve.
>>150085954
I knew someone would post this eventually
>>150088612
Though I don't disagree; he was a lying, cheating scumbag that got caught.
>>150085659
Actual sociopaths do exist. Not everyone is a sympathetic villain.
>>150089558
Those guys are the exception.
>>150085898
>And a LoGH thread isn't going to get moved to /c/ or /e/
With this moderation I'm not going to bet on it man.
>>150086624
Very efficient.
>>150088468
Agreed, Yang was perfect every minute he was on screen.
It hurts.
>>150085898
>>150085959
>>150089904
You're forgetting about /cm/
>>150090540
LoGH belongs on /y/, it's downright filthy.

Damn. What a nice image
