Geee, I wonder what to say as I is a newcomer on the list....
Everyone here is so serious!!!! *shudder* Hmmm, well.... I'm not that
good at LoGH as I dont' have much to work on except myself and whatever
tidbits I can get off of friends.... And the other mail was a bit long,
so I guess I won't try replying to the whole thing the way I usually
do....

But first off.... Yah! No evidence that Yang is the better man
just because Reinhard happens to have all the luck..... And redemption
through love..... Well... You know, the only reason he really did it
with Hilda was because he was feeling guilty about Kircheis' death! It's
all his fault! At least I'm sure he kind of thinks that way.... But they
do make a decent couple..... And since no relationship is perfect, I
suppose it'll just have to do.... As for Reuental..... *sniffle* I
didn't think it was a complete disaster! Reuental himself was a good
choice, just that he had a whole bunch of subordinates that got him in
trouble and his one attempt at reconciling didn't work out the way it was
suppose to.... In some ways, Reuental is a tragic character in himself,
but that's ok since he did get to see little Felix with two blue eyes.
Erm.... Let's see..... You could argue that the whole thing was brought
upon by Kircheis' death... After all, I know how much that impacted me!
Ah well.... So much for Yang's dreams of peace..... But Kircheis is
often underestimated because he's under the shadow of Reinhard.
Similarly, you could say that Yang looks even more impressive because he's
in the shadow of total idiots (character foils). Besides, that's what was
irritating Reinhard anyway back when he chewed out Bittenfeld.

Anyway, I leave my comments there since I is not the best person
in the world to be speaking.... *sigh* Someday LoGH will be translated
to English and then I'll have the confidence to speak..... Unless.... Is
there an English translation I don't know about????
