Oskar von Reuenthal, genius tactician of the Galactic Empire. Best friend of the Gale Wolf. The man who could have taken the Universe if he were only born in a different Era. The man who rebelled against the greatest dictator the Empire has ever known. And the man who fought evenly with Walter von Schenkopp, the most abled bodied man in the Free Planets Alliance!
@@DIEGhostfish That's true. Provided he had a wife and daughters, he is the equivalent of a duke/prime minister. He has the status and Reinhard's favor as his most powerful vassal so a marriage between his daughter and the prince would've been his step to take over. But that being said, I highly doubt Reunthal would ever entertain this idea since he's a man of war and would never sire children, especially in favor over fighting a 1v1 with Reinhard.
What I watched: Legend of the Galactic Heroes. What I expected: Grand-scale fleet battles interspersed with somber political drama. What I got: Flag officers knife-fighting.
Always keep a spare in your boot. ALWAYS. Also, wow. I keep on forgetting just how awesome this fight was, especially seeing how Schenkopp thoroughly schooled everyone else who ever stood against him.
Not at all. I know what you're getting at though. In this Universe Wars consist mainly of fleet battles, and hand-to-hand(infantry) combat is mostly limited to within corridors of a battleship, so melee and armors are not that far-fetched given the circumstances.
Especially because of the combustible seffle particles, which negate ranged fire because then everyone dies. This universe was limited by the technology of the time the series was made, but they sidestepped a lot of the criticism with genuinely interesting premises. Such as everything being pen and paper and analogue because technology was so advanced that nothing digital was secure enough.
@@skyeshi3570 at least the second one aimed at the idiot with the open visor, but the first one was too dumb to shoot the guy in full armor close instead of the guy without a helmet who was right in front of him
@@LipeSun was a quick reflex shot, you try not shitting bricks when some one in full armor opens the door on you, you're goingto aim at the person you're gun is pointed at first instead of the one who's closest, and he was closer by about a foot
One time I was talking with a friend about this exact scene in the anime and opened a random page on the novel book that he got from a mutual and, there it was, the walter presenting himself lol
back then when I first saw this ep I said to my self " what the hell can't you wait at least 'till Reuenthal wear his shield? or whatever they call it :P
VCMENTERTAINMENTS gunfights stopped happening since the armour blocks lasers and they infantry used zephyr particle emitters which cause massive explosions if you shoot them, essentially sinking the ship
Laser guns are still used, as you saw in the scene, but zephyr particles kinda make them useless as anyone who shoots will risk blowing themselves up, kinda like letting off hydrogen gas
The Gaiden series mentions that only lasers set off zephyr particles, and that they don't activate even in hot engines. I guess all knowledge of kinetic firearms were lost when that nuclear war happened on earth.
Heroes and good warriors are really just good killers. More than two weapons is just common sense and just two is for the daring. However, one weapon? that one is a fool.
OMG, the original version was soooo much better than the "remastered"(butchered, lol) version. The scenes there don't just look bland, but also really dumb in action dumb kind of way, this is the good stuff! Hopefully someone with enough passion fixes the remaster by taking those horrible redrawn scenes for these ones. Hopefully the newer series does justice to this one(altough, i have a bad feeling that it won't because of the goofy designs of the newer armor)
@Sam Tyler I'm guessing it's the sequence starting from 1:00 We see Schenkopp lost his knife as he flung back, but immediately got another knife popping into his hand. The remaster version edited this mistake though. ua-cam.com/video/SOv0K03pMRg/v-deo.html
You know...in a world where space ships can spam missiles like they're from the Macross universe....I'm still amazed that they still have troops fight with axes, halberds and knives.
![[LoGH] Meanwhile, in the Free Planets Alliance...](/img/n.gif)
That moment when you don't know which character you should support

Genius tactician who never showed that genius of hims in battles lmao
@@thestampede4999 To be honest, Yang is literally a man-machine that only Reinhard and Oberstein can deal damage somewhat equally to him.
If he had been just a little more patient, coulda played the marriage alliance game with his kid and Reinhard's eventual heir
@@DIEGhostfish That's true. Provided he had a wife and daughters, he is the equivalent of a duke/prime minister.

it's a good sign you wrote something valuable when i genuinely have no idea who to root for
The scene where I don't know which one is my favorite character :)
***** maybe you're right :)
+Polyakova Ekaterina That was the point, darling. Whoever dies it would be a tragedy.
Mine is Reuenthal
What I watched: Legend of the Galactic Heroes.
What I expected: Grand-scale fleet battles interspersed with somber political drama.
What I got: Flag officers knife-fighting.
How I call this: *PERFECTION*
You just summarized Dune
Reunthal’s backflips are so goofy, I love it
Logh AND umineko. Pahfukto!
Never bring a knife to a... wait
Gottem
Although Reuental was unarmed, he stayed alive for as long as possible
Oskar is a beast would've been more a competent kaiser too
This video just shows how awesome Reuenthal and Schenkopp both were.
Nice profile pic
戦闘能力最強クラスのシェーンコップの攻撃をいなす、というかむしろ若干優勢に立つ”頭脳派”ロイエンタール…
特に前半の動きはもはやパルクール。ラインハルトの幹部達やばすぎるね。
Always keep a spare in your boot. ALWAYS.
Also, wow. I keep on forgetting just how awesome this fight was, especially seeing how Schenkopp thoroughly schooled everyone else who ever stood against him.
i always laugh at the way reuenthal (and his officers) turns around, like a mistress caught in flagrante delicto by a furious wife.
One of the hypest ground battles in LoGH
The battle of the maginificent bastards :)
艦隊司令官が白兵戦できるというラインハルトの幕僚のレベルの高さよ
0:50 Can you feel the testosterone?
羽佐間さんシェーンコップ、若本さんロイエンタールの、ともにドスの効いた演技のスゴさよ。
何が起きても動じないロイエンタールほんとすこ
ここでロイエンタールが死んでいたらその後の歴史は大きく変わったでしょうな。
作画が本当に最初のやつだ！
*#*##*£¥€¥££¥₩₩₩€¿*#*
ローゼンリッター隊長にして屈指の白兵巧者のシェーンコップ相手に互角に渡り合うロイエンタールの万能ぶりが凄い。
そしてそのロイエンタールにミッターマイヤーまで加わって、作戦とはいえなお圧倒したオフレッサーは化け物だったんだろうなと思わせる
Hmmm. We do see Reuental grab a knife from one of the fallen Rosenritters, so it's quite plausible Schenkopp did the same in that amount of time.
Schenkopp took it out first XD
0:11
ここの ( ﾟдﾟ) って顔好きｗ
昔、MADで暴れん坊将軍のOP曲に合わせたのがあったんだよね。素晴らしい出来だった。

@@brap6557 That is still true today for the US. Top secret information is only stored in paper format.
kill at the first stroke. this is the element of elements of hand-to-hand fight.
Never bring a gun to axe fight.
Incredible that normally these armors resist rifle shots without a problem, but when the script wants them they don't even resist a pistol shot
first was in the neck where there's less armor, second was in the face where he had the protective visor up, they were both well palced shots
@@skyeshi3570 at least the second one aimed at the idiot with the open visor, but the first one was too dumb to shoot the guy in full armor close instead of the guy without a helmet who was right in front of him

One of my favorite fights still even years later! My two favorite officers from the series after Kircheis.
Schenkopp's the man! 😂
まさに男のロマンｗ
Oskar Von Reuenthal: That was ridiculous
Horatio Nelson: First time?
中途半端な修正のより旧作画のほうが好きだわ
Hahaha. I feel american jealousy against JP anime. Hollywood movies are not only entertainment on the earth.
Hollywood is a complete pile of shit compared to anime
It's the 37th century.
Why do they still use DOS?
One time I was talking with a friend about this exact scene in the anime and opened a random page on the novel book that he got from a mutual and, there it was, the walter presenting himself lol

All's fair in love and war. Honor and pride are for the dead.
さすがミッターマイヤーと共に白兵戦でも豪の者と言われたロイエンタールなだけあるな。あのシェーンコップに互角か時には優勢なんだからな。
この動画は全部古いオリジナルの作画なんだな
If this series had mobile suits I think I know what they would’ve look like.
Well, remake has some sort of robo-armor.
So this was he fencing scene with Beethoven Symphony 9 intro
You sure?
前から思ってたんだけど同盟軍の腕の進入禁止マークはなんだろう。
私はいつもマイナスのネジ穴的なものだと思ってますw
I think he picked the knife from the corpse of the other Rosen Ritter, just like Reuentahl.
So, they have Ships with advanced energyweapons but infantrycombat works with axes and knives? Can somebody explain it to me?
VCMENTERTAINMENTS gunfights stopped happening since the armour blocks lasers and they infantry used zephyr particle emitters which cause massive explosions if you shoot them, essentially sinking the ship
Laser guns are still used, as you saw in the scene, but zephyr particles kinda make them useless as anyone who shoots will risk blowing themselves up, kinda like letting off hydrogen gas
VCMENTERTAINMENTS imagine playing fallout 3 but there is explosive gas everywhere in a balloon in space. Then it becomes normal to use melee weapons.
The Gaiden series mentions that only lasers set off zephyr particles, and that they don't activate even in hot engines. I guess all knowledge of kinetic firearms were lost when that nuclear war happened on earth.
I kinda wonder why somebody hasn't brought back good ol' kinetic guns...
Awesome
Reuenthal's sexiest face LoL 1:14
Any roleplayer can attest: never only have one weapon. He just had a spare knife on him, why not.
Heroes and good warriors are really just good killers. More than two weapons is just common sense and just two is for the daring. However, one weapon? that one is a fool.
I love replying to shit said like 6 years ago heh
@@KuroSys Yeah, dude was smart enough to grab one of the several weapons laying on the floor at least.
I thought the axes could block laser fire.
Maybe the blade, but not the haft?
True enough. Though if anything in this case, I'd blame the animators, not the writer.
OMG, the original version was soooo much better than the "remastered"(butchered, lol) version. The scenes there don't just look bland, but also really dumb in action dumb kind of way, this is the good stuff! Hopefully someone with enough passion fixes the remaster by taking those horrible redrawn scenes for these ones.

Yeah, I think this was an animation error.
Please, it's not like Schenkopp didn't just bring two knives, badass that he is.
wtf even was this scene?
who wrote this script?
*does a backflip then shoots the handle of his opponent's battle-axe with a laser gun*
@Sam Tyler I'm guessing it's the sequence starting from 1:00
We see Schenkopp lost his knife as he flung back, but immediately got another knife popping into his hand.
The remaster version edited this mistake though.

@darfjono and also remember newer to bring guns to a MUTHAFUCKING AXE FIGHT!
You know...in a world where space ships can spam missiles like they're from the Macross universe....I'm still amazed that they still have troops fight with axes, halberds and knives.
They explained it in the show several times why melee combat is still important.
"You use the knife to make sure enemy won't push that button." Or something like that.
うんざりする程、決闘ざんまいな人生のロイエンタールと、どっこいなシェーンコップの白兵戦技術。
Я смотрел все 110 серий Овы и не видел этой сцены😮🤔
今流行りの闇バイト中のシェーンコップさんと、ショッピング中のロイエンタールさん。😂
👍
It's 37th century.
Why knives can't regenerate?
Can you bring back your 10 years ??
REYİSLERDE SEVER!!
Клсна схватка них круто
Not a very good fight. Still amazing somehow xD
And look the anime fights today, pure garbage compared to this one.
Dune
Is this Anime loosely based on Warhammer 40K at all?
TheAzureNightmare No, takes place in years 3 thousand.
If they take place in the same universe, this is verrrry early in DoT.
No and neither on Dune
