New anime is actually not bad so far. I’m not a fan of the character designs and sad that they’re not using classical music but other than that the production value is great and the way they slightly rearranged the story is fine so far like introducing Yang as a punchline in the last 5 seconds of the first episode

Just hoping they get to the Artemis Necklaces, Iserlohn vs Geiersberg and other kaboom episodes and throw their newfangled animation budget at them

Yeah, my biggest gripe is also the character designs, and I'm kind of skeptical about this entire remake as I feel the original anime is just perfect as it is- but I did get nerd chills at that ending anyway :kimchi:

One of the best parts of the new series was the special episode, where one member of the cast (I think it was Siegfried, or maybe Reinhard's VA) went to the Legend of the Galactic Heroes cafe in Tokyo (I didn't even know there was one till then) and was interviewed about the show. The older VA for the same character from the original OVA's comes in about the half way mark, and then the author of the original light novels makes an appearance for part of it too. They have some food from the cafe, try one of the drinks and just chat about the story, their views on the character and how they play them, the differences in the versions etc.

It must have been up on Crunchyroll at some point to say I saw it, but looking now I don't see it. Either that, or I'm going mad and imagined the whole thing :goleft:

Would absolutely love to see this if anyone finds it online somewhere

I've always been curious, how are the (translated) books? Worth picking up?

God dammit. gently caress you episode 82. I need a drink.

Yep! I took a 6 month break after that episode. No fictional death has ever hit me that hard before or since. It's gutwrenchingly awful but such great storytelling and definitely worth soldiering on.

Dawn, Ambition and Endurance are still listed on my euro audible, but I don't know if audible actually has netflix-esque region locks

Haven't been in this thread because I'm trying to avoid spoilers in my first watch of the OVA, but I just wanted to let you all know that I just finished episode 82 and I am not okay.

Yep. I took a six month break between 82 and 83. shits hosed!!!
