Bump. Just watched the guy with cybernetic eyes express his hatred for the Empire and Reinhard's motivations are more fleshed out now, albeit a bit cliche. Going to watch up to episode 11 to get to the 1/10th mark today.
Episode 11 definitely felt like a Rose of Versailles episode. Things are definitely speeding up and getting far more interesting than the first 8 or so episodes that had too many forgettable characters. The OP song sucks tho.
Watched up to Episode 21 and it appears that Yang Wenli's finally had to go through a personal ordeal. Episode 20 was interesting too, although I don't yet see the hype for this series.
