Also, I’d like to also mention that the Takemikazuchi in episode seems to actually be blue, not purple, indicating a relation in family, but not the actual shogun itself.
Shifting back to the episode, it’s here where Latrova finally accepts that her and her battalion have been sacrificed, something hammered in especially by Yuuya’s dialogue. But as he finds out, things just aren’t that simple as disobeying orders when you disagree with them, as Latrova shows how despite the orders, there’s only so much she can do when its the lives of her family and comrades at stake. To top it off, Latrova also reminds Yuuya that he himself has a task to accomplish, and it just emphasizes the unfair responsibilities thrown onto Eishi (especially commanders) in the battlefield, who must often decide between the mission (and the fate of humanity as a whole) and the lives of their comrades/family. It’s just that kind of world in Muv-Luv, and this situation really just emphasizes how dire things can be in a world facing extinction. Her sending of Yuuya back to the base emphasizes her attempt to ensure that at least someone can survive who can make a big difference in the future.īut at the same time, there’s also a subtle commentary weaved in about the resilience of the human spirit too, as Latrova ultimately stays resolute despite the grim scenario, opting to make the most of what she can of the situation, and if not, to make the most of their deaths.
Her decision to destroy the laser class with the remains of her battalion a demonstration of her will to protect the country she fights for and the absolute defense line vital to humanity’s overall survival.
And last but not least, she even stays behind to fight against the Soviet agent sent to silence her squadron in order to protect her family/comrades too. She refuses to just let the situation bring her down and cower in fear, and it really is just amazing and shows why she was so lauded as a commander in the first place.
