Legend of the Galactic Heroes

Nov 08, 2007 00:57

So over the past week or so I've basically dropped every series I was watching (Jeeg, Getter, GGG Final, other random shit) and started watching SOLELY Legend of the Galactic Heroes.  Sure, this means I haven't seen a giant robot smash something in over a week, but I have to say, LOGH is pretty badass so far.  I think I just finished what's called the first season, and the series is definitely in my top 10 at the level of quality it's maintaining right now.  The characters are just way more likeable (OR HATEABLE) than in most of the series I've seen cover these themes (see: gundam >_>).  Yang Wenli is like the super-Amuro: deeper, less angsty, and eccentric in an awesome way and not in a "THE FORCE" way.  I'm also digging the twists.  Some of them I see coming and thoroughly enjoy, others I don't and I actually "OSNAP" at.  I'm willing to forgive how old the show looks in favor of the awesome story.  Most of the epic space battles are ships moving back and forth, but they still manic to be EPIC SPACE BATTLES.  I like it.  A lot.

Season 1: 10/10
