Legend of the Galactic Heroes Review

My second review is going to be about an anime called The Legend of the Galactic Heroes. It is a different type of anime and an older one than most of the popular ones today but if you are looking for a high value anime this is the one for you. This anime is about a boy's rise to the top of an empire that spans throughout space. Although the anime is placed in space as well as multiple planets, it is populated only by humans with no signs of alien life anywhere throughout the episodes. Instead most of the episodes go from beginning with the main character Reinhard Von Lohengramm's rise to power, to his battles against the Free Planets Alliance to unite the whole of space under one rule, to the eradication of a terrorist group known as the Terraists, to the eventual end of his rule. The anime is filled with emotion, character development and a look into humanity and the power people have in themselves and what they get from others. If you like space battles, tactical thinking, character depth, and anime of the highest quality this is what you are looking for. All I will say is if you find yourself loving a character give up now, they will all die eventually just like in Game of Thrones.
