My wish came true the legendary orange is back but with consequences . So much for the gun being 'symbolic' , once she spout the line "Negotiation between states" we all know who she is .
A bit surprised with fake hime , I thought she would be bitter and throw her sister to outer space but turns out she can be reason with . Now left crutheo jnr and count mazoo to rescue ass hime from the lelouch requiem wannabe . Next episode sounds like a reunion between Inaho and ass hime . Farewell to Slaine ? I really hope they don't do something stupid like colony drop like gundam at the final episode . That is just contradicting to get earth resources . Slaine fan must be angry the fact that Hime doesnt even tried to talk sense to their beloved Slaine instead straight away pointed a gun to him . So much for beloved childhood friend The next time Slaine meet Inaho he would be probably say its all because of you my girl and my rebellion gone down the drain curse you poker face robot eye emotionless terran scum

Well, Slayne is going down, that is easy for everybody to see. His three big allies all went down together, so I don't even know if he has any further knights who follow his orders.
The question is if they will also kill off Inaho by overusing his eye. Hm, since Asseylum and Lemrina are working together now, couldn't they just agree to remove Aldnoah activation rights from Slayne? That would screw him over immediately.

Cruhteo expressed several times that he thought what the princess was doing in going to Earth was foolish, but he never really said it to her face plainly. Saazbaum agreed with him that Asseylum's actions were foolish, but of course didn't say it to her either since he was rather counting on her to go. Slaine did tell her pointedly that he disagreed with her way of thinking, mostly because of how much he's changed and that he doesn't consider himself a part of Vers anymore. Don't jump to conclusions on what I was talking about unless you know what I was responding to.

Slaine's in a very difficult position now.
He doesn't have Asseylum or Lemrina on side, so he's gone from two Asseylums to none - if another knight asks to see Asseylum, all he can say is 'no, you can't, because [x] reason.' The more people don't see her, the more they're going to be suspicious. Not to mention that his three-knights-attacking-together gambit failed. Harklight made a big deal about how it was showing the other Orbital Knights the value of being unified under one leader, and how it was reassuring them that they could win this war under Slaine, and it's failed. The blame for the deaths of those three is going to be placed squarely at Slaine's feet, rightly or wrongly, and all those knights who were putting their hopes in Slaine are now going to be feeling very antsy. That's not even including the things that Slaine doesn't know about, like Count Cruhteo II arriving (and bringing with him, one assumes, a solid claim to the Tharsis), and Mazuurek scheming against him, and Inaho and co presumably on their way to attack the Moon base soon. Slaine's character arc, in a way, reminds me of Macbeth's: We've seen him rise to power and, in the process, lose sight of his ethics and goals - and now we're seeing things turn sharply downwards for him, and it's pretty much all downhill from here.

Saazbaum attacking Cruhteo was purely because he had a debt to repay. I - kind of feel like it's important to be very particular about that, because it's a character defining moment for Saazbaum: It establishes him as someone who will act against his own interests for the sake of following a code of honour, and that's what eventually gets him killed.

When you say "everyone" while it was only saaz, OVB it was the mastermind for the assassination attempt, and Slaine in the second cour , after the villain route, i belive that are just TWO and NOT "everyone" and that you bring Chruteo out from nowhere . that's all.

Slaine's best chance of counteracting that would be to use Lemrina to bring the other knights into line, but he can't do that anymore.

I was hoping Slaine would heard the news that his blitzkrieg attack was overturned by legendary orange . But never get the chance to do so . Man if he heard about it and combined with Ass hime not cooperating he would probably throw some hissy fit like he did back in season 1 .
I just cant see how he is going to be invading earth once Mars separate into two faction the plebs and the royalist . My guess final battle would be at the moon but its unfair that Inaho is handicapped with eye problem and inferior kataphrakt. Oh well , lets leave that to the best hand of plot armor . It always shines when you least expected

This has nothing to do with anything you're talking about. I wasn't even thinking of the assassination attempt or Saazbaum being a traitor. Go back to the early episodes again. Cruhteo wasn't just thinking about the security, he honestly thought the trip itself was useless. Just because he was loyal to the princess doesn't mean he agreed with her in everything. She saw Terrans as equals, and he's your stereotypical Martian racist. He even asked Slaine to try to dissuade her from her trip. He talked to Saazbaum about her going down to do the trip and told him that he had tried his best to dissuade her. Saazbaum agreed with him. All I'm saying is that not many spoke pointedly to Asseylum if they disagreed with her views because of her royal status. This is stating a fact seen in the show, portrayed by the nobles and their behavior, and it would make perfect sense in their society. They live in an empire, they're not going to question the royals face to face. My statement had nothing to do with the assassination attempt, the war, or who's to blame. It has nothing to do with Slaine really. I was simply pointing out that he is one of the few from Vers, who told her to her face that he disagreed with her. Practically everyone else of Vers would't have though to because of her position as princess.

but you put it in a way i disagree, like the asseylum way to act or behaviour was always been bring into question from "everyone" (where your everyone are the mastermind who want to overturn the royal system, and the new villain slaine from second cour), and the show did't show at all "everyone" but just 2 ppl. |

I really like Slaine's determination. I always thought that if he is driven purely by lust, rather than a bigger ideal, that will really cheapen his, Harklight's and Saazbaum's characters. Saazbaum must have been happy in his grave if he were to listen to Slaine's retort to the princesses.
I find it interesting that Slaine renounces his terran and vers heritage, and thus, refuses his right to the new world, so it seems he doesn't think he'll survive. I hope he's not going to completely wipe out the terrans before he dies in Zero Requiem style. That'll be boring. So it seems that the terrans are going to attack either moon base or mars. If moon base is attacked, Inaho will have the chance to rescue Asseylum. What will Slaine do? If mars is attacked, Asseylum's grandfather will likely die. What will Asseylum do? I can't wait to see the next ep. |

When I was talking about Slaine, I was saying that he's more free to pointedly disagree with her and say it aloud because he's changed and he's no long a citizen of Vers. Others who have told Asseylum pointedly that her previous views were wrong are Inaho and Rayet, but since there weren't really citizens of Vers beforehand, I didn't bring them up. Quote:

Looks like Slaine has become rather Stalin-like. "Everyone will live in one nationality in peace, and I call all the shots, naturally."
Slaine has fallen to the delusion that a Utopia is achievable, and mankind can live in perpetual peace. We cannot (surely we never have). Even if he were to bring every living human into a single people, although it may be peaceful for a few decades, eventually someone would want power for themselves, or factions would rise, internal disputes, something. We can be a fractious and ambitious race.
