#we can be^_^ and reinhard is like soo true king

[blueiight]

logh leaning heavy on the melodramatics of space opera aside ur very right abt kinnaka and I always think about their brand of feminine interpersonal relationship when I remember one of logh’s earliest adaptions being a shoujo manga and it’s subsequent movie lol

omg yea they do lean on the melodramatics heavy.. it makes it a slog to recommend to people cuz after s1 that narrator wont stfu like stop with the demagogy in-universe historians/tanaka!! but thankfully, yang wenli exists, and hes at least like ‘idk about that narrator’ i like to think? passive lib-leftism meets revanchist demagogery. thank god for our good friend yang. but somehow multiple ppl ik r watching it cuz of my empty little blogging. 🤣 yo and the fact that the earliest lotgh adaptations was a shoujo manga and the mangaka who drew that also being most known for her role in drawing ai no kusabi (canon yaoi). good stuff man. & i know, they occupy suuuch a fascinating role in their interpersonal relationships! the fact that reinhard’s likened to the mythical druid brunhilde with the flagship name, and the fact that kircheis’s first name is the siegfried that died for brunhilde.. kircheis while living both the militaristic obligations with reinhard + this quasi feminized labor emotionally .. taking care of reinhard for annerose becomes taking care of reinhard bc he cares about him. him being the emotional loss in reinhard’s arc that motivates him to continue conquest isnt really ‘bury ur gay’ trope bc it perpetually darkens reinhard’s whole side of the conflict. like how the villain in most space shows has a dead wife that spurned him into darkness but this is lotgh so the villain in most stories is considered one ‘historical hero’. and the dead wife is his sic. how many times do we hear reinhard seeking to fulfill the ‘quench in his heart’ and failing to do so? bc nothing can replace kircheis to him. reinhard’s conclusion from kircheis’s death& its aftermath is that ‘kindness and good will is not enough for those i love [so i must conquer to fulfill our last promise]. and die. of special boy disease. reinhard keeps the locket of kircheis’s hair with annerose + kircheis bc they were all sisters. theres also this post about how kircheis’s dad grows flowers calls baldur’s orchids (fictional flower in lotgh verse) + theyre in the pov mental scene where annerose tries to imagine kircheis’s love and the imagination goes nowhere. theyre also in ep4 i think?. also not even 5 eps later from annerose’s mental scene that reinhard on his deathbed says ‘i return kircheis to you, sister’ nanna was baldur’s wife in the myths who sets herself aflame after losing baldur.. like. omg kircheis starts calling him lord reinhard so early on and thats their ‘private nobody’s around this is our best attempt at being equals’ name. theyre so insane.

reading em’s fic

And then he could not lurk in the greenery anymore, because his Kaiser was calling him forth, and he could not refuse his name said by that voice.

His Majesty Kaiser Reinhard von Lohengramm, King of Hauptplanet Odin, Reichsfürst of Phezzanland and Neue Land, Pontifex Maximus Midlandis, the Emperor of Humankind, sat relaxed in a gilded chair somewhere between a throne and a hospital bed.

UR LEAKING BITCH UR DESPICABLEKDKFKDKDKXKSKXKD OYMYGOD. hilda being considered ‘a threat’ NOT EVEN A PERSON. A THREAT IN A LILAC SUIT

His voice retained its imperious music, so gentle and commanding at once without any discordance between those two qualities. The velvet glove and the iron fist together. Reuenthal saw out of the corner of his eye a pale hand gesturing him to the couch behind. Sometimes, in private, the Kaiser offered that hand for him to kiss with a feline smile… no such luck with Mariendorf perched there watching.

reminds me so much of the ep66 line when hes like UR DOMINEERING LIGHT IS UR CHARM NEVER LOSE IT

HEALTHY LUST FOR BLOOD AGAIN. ISERLOHN UNMOLESTED. EM UR SICK UR A GENIUS

”Everything has changed. I was prepared to meet Yang Wenli,” said Reinhard, almost petulantly. “He proved himself a worthy opponent, battle-tested and blood-baptized as I have been. I know we would have understood each other; the same cannot be said for any of his successors.”

SO SO SO SO SICK. The mental imagery of hilde whispering in His ear like oberstein… the parallel of hilde & oberstein as ‘emasculated’ figures in the empire bc they dont ‘fight directly’ but theyre both pivotal to reinhard in such a way reinhard recognizes & the rest of his fanboys dont..reuenthal being ENVIOUS of hilde’s promotions!!!!

HAPPILY GOING HOME TO KISS HIS WIFE WHILE REUENTHAL FESTERED… UNLOVED AND UNTRUSTED

He can be so naive sometimes, Reuenthal thought, but he held his tongue. Of course we will fight over you.

HES SOO PERVERTED AND WEIRD I LIVE.

“He and I were the same,” Reinhard said eventually, calmer but still heated. “I admired him greatly. If he had submitted to me…”

pervert #2 reuenthal is 100% going to take it there will he!! stop it reinhard a little boy (24 year old man)

He had always taken comfort in the idea that his friendship and loyalty was, if not a true replacement for that lost love, at least had the potential to become such. He was so, so much like the Kaiser. But by the way Reinhard said it, he was not even in the running. So preoccupied and distressed was he by this thought that he almost missed his Kaiser’s golden head lolling back from the glass, like a cut blossom, his knees buckling.

NOW WE’RE JEALOUS OF DEAD MEN????? GIRL… GET IT TOGETHER OSKAR. TAKE OFF THAT ROBE AND DO WHAT⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️

“Why should I bother with a wife, when I have you to wait on me?”

The image made him light-headed to contemplate.

this is his yaoi amphetamine.. just an isolde looking for her tristan. too bad that treacherous harlot blueballed him !!!!😂😂

REINHARD: dying

REUENTHAL: without me? :( (SOON. SOON U WILL PERISH!!!)

soooooo so freaky i love this oh my god… u will never be Her (kircheis)
