I watched the anime last year and it's fascinating to see the tonal differences between the novels and the OVA. I wasn't nearly as disabled by Yang's death, but the WORK of Iserlohn, the course of its mourning - wow, crushing.

Love the ridiculous prose and the translation work wasn't as clunky as it was for vol 7.
