AnimeSuki Forum - Schwarzesmarken - Anime Speculation & Theories (for first time anime viewers)

This thread is aimed at first time viewers of Schwarzesmarken and its purpose is to allow spoiler free speculation and theories to be aired. Having them in a central location may help focus the discussion instead of spreading speculation over the various episode discussion threads. If you are knowledgeable of the source material then we ask that you please do not post in this thread (use the Spoilers & Speculation Thread instead) and do not give away any spoilers in this thread!

Unacceptable post topics:

Any form of spoiler from Schwarzesmarken manga or light novels.
Any form of game spoilers.
Any form of spoilers from visual novels.

Spoiler Policy

Any spoiler that reveals future events, even under a spoiler tag, will be deleted.
Spoiler tags should still be used where appropriate.
Adding a Spoiler tag:

Just highlight your spoiler and click the button found
on the "Quick Reply" and "Reply to Thread" forms.
Make sure that you include a title for the spoiler!
Please use the Report button if you see any spoilers:

Click the button found to the left of the post, just under the poster's avatar.
Using the Report button is anonymous and helps the Moderators
to locate and deal with problems quickly.
Posting prohibited spoilers may result in a ban.
Note: Reporting a post does not mean the poster will be banned instantly.
The Moderators will use bans if warnings are repeatedly ignored.

Magazine previews are an exception to the said rule. You are allowed to discuss those. (Properly labeled spoiler tags required).
