Is there a real reason why Ragyo's theme song is in German?
>>
Because shes the bad guy and nazis are bad.
>>
Is it just to sound cool?

>>143154678
1) japs still love Germany
2) MC's theme already had English, so they had to set them apart

it's just there for window dressing something to look more DEEP

In the first episode they literally said the Nazis won, and that the Kiryuin family are descendant of them, or something around that line.

I loved this scene because it was sexy.

Hiroyuki Sawano really likes German

>>143154890
The Kiryuins aren't descended from Nazis; they're an old family line that's been in the thrall of the Original Life Fiber since ancient times. The school lesson's set up for the fashion/fascism theme.
>>
>>143154678
Because Sawano is a hack.

Is Ragyo meant to be like a ww2 German dictator? Is that why her theme is German?

Anyone else rewatch some episodes of KLK just for Satsuki?
Or is that just me
>>
I got really hyped for Ragyo to have a cool backstory based on the lyrics, but then she was just a generic evil lady. Disappointment is the theme of the climax of KlK though, so I guess it was to be expected.

Is there any reason why Sawano isn't banned from anime since everything he works on is doomed to be a huge pile of shit in the end?
>>
so there is no reason why Ragyo's theme song is in German?
>>
>>143158061
Cause Sawano is a hack you fucking idiot. If you've watched more than 10 anime you'd know he does that shit all the time for no reason.

Why is Sawano such a fucking hack? His Unicorn OST was amazing but he only went downhill from there, especially when he tries to write a vocal song.
