Summary:
For decades, the Galactic Empire has been locked in an interstellar war with the Free Planets Alliance, a conflict that involves thousands of spaceships and millions of soldiers on both sides. Two new commanders enter the conflict with great hopes: Imperial Admiral Reinhard von Lohengramm and the FPA's Yang Wen-Li. As they deal with superiors and subordinates, maneuver through complicated political arrangements, plot strategies, and win battles, each will be tested, and ultimately, changed, by the reality of war.

I've always found it sad how at 0:43 all the ships of Reinhard's admirals are ascending, but you can't see Kircheis' red ship, Barbarossa. When I first saw that, it hit me since at that time I wasn't used to Kircheis being gone.

[OK-mvih]

Reminds me of when Reinhard and Yang met for the first time and chatted about government and philosophy as if they'd been old friends who've finally found time to catch up with one another...

製作期間が短く制約がきつかったそうですが、
時代が経ってもこのopの印象が忘れられません。

Its funny how the german text at the beginning of every opening has many grammer fails.

god i love this intro so much, best one in my opinion

[parsifal]

End of History is a bunch of crap. Western Liberal Democracy is not the final perfect form of government. LOGH is an excellent examination of the benefits and drawbacks of democracy and autocracy. This OP puts the basic truth very eloquently that men have always behaved the same way and always will, even hundreds of years from now.

Hilda looks so weird in this opening, maybe her head being rounder?
