  • i think that both sides are wrong in some aspects, the abh should be more liberal and understand that the terrans have diferent thoughts, i mean they live in space so they forgot what was like to be a terran and the united manking is also wrong because they want to eliminate the entyre abh race .

  • The thing about Abhs is that they underestimate humankind to learn and understand. They just jump ahead and do what's best for them. Kind of like a parent and a child thing. You won't exactly be happy when your parents punish you for a reason not well explained. Prolly they'll just tell you, "You're too young" and so they'll grow up and get the notion when they get old, they understand everything and pretty much capable of doing what they did to their child.

  • is abh a official language?

  • ok for one yes abh are very controling and such but united mankind would most likly like all humans rule with a controling behaver it just comes down to what kind of control would you like more...I would like abh since there is little to no crime and people are content. where as mankind welll....lots of crime and pointless wars..ssssooooo abh for me please.

  • Holy cow! The Mankind propaganda is... correct?

  • @1madmartagan1 They were genetically created clones for manual labor yes that was once true.

  • Mankind believes its your fault entirely if you are suffering. Kind of like conservative United States...? People who believe in less government programs but instead working hard to provide for yourself. If you make a mistake or screw up or got fucked up well tough shit.

    The empire seems more likable but.... your children will all be genetically modified. Behaviors will be controlled. A system of government run by only royalty. Some Lack of freedom for peace of mind.

    Abh

  • I pray for "her" to show up with help soon. I so desire to see what is just down the road.

  • Wow that commander is an idiot.

    How did he get his rank?

  • cant believe that guy is an admiral.

  • i didnt get the story at the beginning the first time i saw it. i thought it actually happened rather than something like propaganda.

  • I love this series! :) maybe I should just get all 3 seasons box sets :)

  • this is starting to remind me of macross, stargate, and Battlestar galactica. coincedence?

    thanks for uploading.

  • the admiral have no tactical mind whatsoever

  • i'd hate to be on the same ship...

  • That commander is an idiot lol

  • hahaha I love the propaganda thing at the begining

  • Okay, I'm dense so maybe you can explain it to me...that propaganda message, what does it mean exactly? Is it implying that the United Mankind speaks pretty words but does little to help people in need whereas the Abh listen and lend their aid to those who ask for it? I'm guessing whatever it means, its just propaganda (though from what I've seen so far the Empire as a whole seems a lot more likeable than the United Mankind, I'll have to wait and see)

  • You are right, that is exactly what it means.

  • Seems to me to be about the different philosophies about what role the government should play. United Mankind believes that people want and need to be independent so each planet should take care of itself (like teaching a man to fish so he can eat for a lifetime). The Abhs don't believe in independence but the compentent taking care of the incompetent (when they want help) and clearly they believe that their own competence (down to a genetic level) qualifies them to take care of everybody.

  • WOW...I like the many Abh characters and dislike how the United Mankind lie and use proganda to get supporters...but still, in real life, a govt that believes itself superior to all down to the genetic level & that all should follow their lead...That would be downright EVIL. I'm glad that neither of these nations really exist, lol.

  • Yup, they both engage in propoganda.

    The Abh have basically appointed themselves the "Guardians of the State" that Plato talked about in Plato's Republic. They argue that people need the elite to take care of them.

    Humankind argues that people can take care of themselves. This opening paints it as negatively as possible, but then, the Abh also ignore the way they as the elite run roughshod over others because "it's for their own good".

    I don't find the Abh argument persuasive.

  • Damn, since the story is told through the Abhs point of view its hard not to like the two main characters & the other abh, BUT, when you explain it all like that, it seems the empire is no better than the United Mankind who oppose them.

    The abh may not be as blatantly hostile as the humans, but its clear they're still taking away their basic rights as sentient beings to gain control over their sections of space (tyrants). Both sides are guilty of great wrong doing.

  • 8:08 Alfiel looks a bit like Shana from Shakugan no Shana.

  • Arigatou!

  • mm I wanna see Banner III. I'm really hoping they keep up with the manga and make one for every book.

  • Lol! he's finally ready to fight, gives an order, and then...his own people shoot it down! i love it!

  • Question! will you be uploading the next season Banner of the stars as well?
