Re: foreshadowing about Kircheis' death. I knew about it because somebody told me(NOOOOOO it's not true please tell me your lying, massive onset of denial) ..but once I got over that I saw that they started throwing hints in your face in the opening song. NOT only that Reinhard and Kircheis are separated at the end of the song, but that Kircheis' eyes close - symbolic of death. Well, at least we keep getting to see him, even after that sad event.
