I absolutely adore Frederika as a character. She's a child, and we can see her immaturity and her nature through her actions. But because of her power to see the past of others, she has technically experienced more than any of the other characters have in their whole lifetimes, leading to her bouts of sudden maturity and philosophy. It's such a unique character Asato has written, and will always be one of my favourites.

2024-11-11 06:10:20 +0000 UTCI just want to add that there is a noticeable absence of Lena in this episode

2024-11-10 21:04:58 +0000 UTCI'm surprised so many people don't get this. It's just a state thing. The responsibility goes to the new empress. You can see this even in our world, even in democracies, e.g. Germany and WWII.

2024-11-10 06:32:43 +0000 UTCShe was a "princess" at that point, like 3 years old or so. Her parents were the ones who gave the command to invade the rest of the continent. It was more taking responsibility as a member of the royal family with " the one who ordered the legion to invade" refering to the Giad Empire, not herself as a person.

2024-11-10 00:14:12 +0000 UTCI would say after episode 14 (3 of season 2). There is some stuff that could spoil the surprise of something in episode 14. But after that ,yeah.
Yumizu
2024-11-10 00:12:03 +0000 UTCShe's also referred to as 'Princess' so I assume her parents were around, and they're gone now, so she calls herself Empress, tho I'm not sure if she was ever actually coronated, or if princess remained a pet name for her after she took the throne by certain people

2024-11-09 23:51:37 +0000 UTCidk if you've noticed, but the book Shin and Nina were reaching for is the same "The Skull Knight" book he used to read as a kid. You've seen it plenty of times in flashbacks or the dream sequence when Rei turns into a knight. Fredrica is actually that young, that's why Radien said, "how older were you ten sears ago". Of course, if you're brought up as royalty, you'll learn mannerisms and talk more maturely than other kids your age. That being said, you can kind of infer that if she's a young empress with not much authority over her empire, military adults would take advantage of her and sign off on the creation and usage of the Legion in her name. also clarification on her powers, it's once she's met the person, she can view their past and present. Since she hadn't met Shin before they were welcomed to Ernst's home, she couldn't have known they were near their borders. She does comment that Shin saved his brother and in turn, saved him back, so that's another confirmation that Rei did save them and brought them near the border.

2024-11-09 23:39:44 +0000 UTCThey wouldn't fight Lena, because the Federacy where Shin's group is now, is not an enemy of the Republic. The old Giad Empire was, but the Federacy was against the war and won the civil war against the Empire, so, both the Federacy and the Republic are just enemies of the Legion, not of each other.

2024-11-09 23:32:27 +0000 UTCI checked and she is 10 years old exactly, so she was born around the time the war was declared

2024-11-09 23:25:45 +0000 UTCIts a great detail a lot of people miss
Aaron Wright
2024-11-09 23:24:13 +0000 UTCYeah, either that or she was a child empress cause her parents died and people did it in her name, so she feels personally responsible
Aaron Wright
2024-11-09 23:23:35 +0000 UTCIt wasn’t Frederica who ordered the legion to invade, she was like 2 when that happened. When she said “I’m the last empress of the Giad empire, who ordered the legion to invade” she meant the empire did, not her. Probably her parents gave the order. She is around 10 years old, I don’t remember exactly, that’s why Raiden said “and how old were you 10 years ago?” He meant it like “don’t try to take the blame for that, we are not idiots, we are not gonna hate you just for where you were born”

2024-11-09 23:20:35 +0000 UTCWell done catching the Juggernaut in the reflection before it switches to the Vánagandr during Kurena’s mini panic attack. It’s so easily missed.

2024-11-09 23:07:25 +0000 UTCIntro is safe to watch in season 2 from the end of episode 2 onwards. There's some cool symbolism but no direct spoilers of scenes that actually happen (to an extent you can regonise anything before it happens)
Aaron Wright
2024-11-09 23:03:07 +0000 UTC13:00 when anju and theo talk about their future there is a couple in the background which looks like anju and daja. Love this little details so much.

2024-11-09 23:00:34 +0000 UTCShe's taking collective responsibility. My guess, is she was a child empress at the time, so people did these horrible things 'in her name', like the nobility and whoever was acting reagent. So she just feels responsible for their actions, even though she would have been so young she'd just have been playing with teddy bears and dolls at that point.
