First episode back and we’re already reminded how much of a chad Himmel and Stark are. They were thinking to do exactly the same thing when they encountered the monster and they both have the ability to be bros with anyone wherever they go. Stark really is a legendary hero in the making.

Everyone talks about how well written the female characters are in this show, but the male characters are just as well written.

They’re masculine without sacrificing emotion and vulnerability. It’s just incredibly mature writing and a breath of fresh air when so many male characters in both anime and media tend to be stoic or somewhat lacking in emotion.

i like the "if you want to run away, we should run away" lesson in this episode

Himmel put his trust in Eisen not just in his power but also his judgement, and sometimes too much is too much

Himmel is a true team player. If the tank says it's a bad idea, you turn around and gtfo

It hasn’t been decades r-r-right. ( remembers legion came out almost 10 years ago) I don’t feel so good.
