Unicorn & Kirin

Julian was eighteen this year, fifteen years junior to Yang himself. One description of him preserved for the ages said, “His slender, proportionate form and sensitive, translucent features put one in mind of a young unicorn.” —— Legend of the Galactic Heroes, Volume 8: Desolation

Kirin, the embodiment of compassion, will suffer divine punishment for killing people .

Another data point for women basically not existing in the logh-universe. Considering that

Most soldiers are male

Most Politicians are male

Most background characters are male

Women are sufficiently emancipated that a university degree and a military or political career is at least a possibility

Losing men to military recruitment is enough to cause significant difficulties in the civil working sphere

We can only assume that women make up such a small portion of the population that pulling more of them into industrial or administrative jobs (as happened in WW2 e.g.) won't significantly offset the loss incurred by military recruitment of men

Remember when Reinhard was like “I will now announce my strategy to defeat Yang Wen-li” and the strategy was “we have more guys than him”

The Love Lives of LOGH Commanders

Reinhard: I am in love with my best friend

Everyone around him: yeah we noticed, can you stop letting that rule your whole life

Yang: I’m hesitant to get into a romantic relationship for a lot of reasons. For one, everyone around me keeps dying, including the last woman I had feelings for. There’s also the chance of me dying at any moment. I feel too stained with blood to live a normal life, and I’m passively suicidal half the time. I’m stuck in a military that won’t let me resign, fighting for a corrupt government that antagonizes me at every turn; in conclusion, I won’t feel free to try again until I finally settle down to be a populist scholar.

Everyone around him: but why won’t you marry your female subordinate

I know that Reinhard and Hilda are gonna get together and I support it. This woman was made for him. Like, he just said he hopes any offspring he has tries to kill him and he’ll try to kill them back, and she smiled

Reinhard about Yang

[emilicorail]

That's actually very interesting...Their relationship really have something special, of course they care about each other but it's still different from what could be expected from newly married lovers ? The whole thing also had to be precipitated because of the consequences of their "little adventure," but without that, would have their relationship stayed the same as it used to be ? Then again, Frederica and Yang also have some sort of very professional relationship as a couple.

Perhaps that's how romance is in logh... But I can't think about anything more romantic than what was going on with Kircheis when it concerns Reinhard

It normally annoys me when a bunch of other characters act like idiots in order to show how smart the main dude is, but in logh, the concept very much is that we're dealing with two countries full of nepotism and corruption and a large portion of the people in power is incompetent. So it makes sense that we get two smart people in the middle of an idiot ball competition.
