LoGH is a classic space opera epic that transcends any other media in this genre. This one-of-a-kind sci-fi medium does the aspects of politics, war, history, world building, characters, lore, dialogues, strategies etc perfectly with well thought out narration and description. LoGH's story excels in the illustration of the concept "2 sides of the same coin". On one side u have autocratic government and democracy on the other. The best part about the story is that it does not exhibit which side is right or which side is wrong. It's a neutral narrative on both the conflicting ideologies. The documentary style of narration/storytelling gives a lot more info on the events and battles that took place over the course of human history and the present in LoGH which upscales the world building and lore, making it riveting and complex. It's very fascinating to see such a nuanced story to have absolutely no true antagonist except the corruptions, oppression and the miseries of people due to the internal and external conflicts that have been happening over centuries. The soundtrack in the anime is just perfect. Now the concept of dual protagonist is something I'm very much interested in (eg: Naruto). Reinhard and Yang Wen-Li are incredibly written protagonists of the story that fits into the concept and themes of the story ideally. The transition of Reinhard, a kid who cared and loved his sister and the only friend he had, to a teenager who realises and develops the sense of responsibility to eradicate the corruptions done by the noble families, oppressions faced by the common people and the imperfections in ruling the Goldenbaum dynasty by gaining military ranks and pushing through them attaining all the recognition and fame, and finally to a man who is the emperor of the new Lohengramm dynasty and the supreme ruler of the galaxy is done perfectly. On the other hand, we have Yang Wen-Li who is the complete opposite of Reinhard. Yang is someone who is laid back and has no kingly ambitions like Reinhard. But he indeed takes every responsibility to protect his ideologies. Yang is someone who doesn't want any recognition whatsoever. He is a simple man with simple principles. But Yang is a genius when it comes to war strategies and tactics and is better than Reinhard in this aspect. And its inspiring to see how they both share conflicting ideas yet has the utmost respect for each other. This type of dynamics is what I yearn when I consume a story like LoGH. My #1 dynamics now. The side cast in LoGH is easily the best in any media, no joke. Every single character in the show adds something to the story which is rare to find. They all feel important. The entire cast is written masterfully and shares complex and interesting relationships. The female cast is exceptional which again is occasional to encounter in this medium. Now the last thing i want to address is about deaths in it. The execution of deaths in LoGH is literally perfect. I'm astonished at how it can make deaths so beautiful and poetic. Even after the deaths of certain characters, they are relevant, and their will is carried like a torch till the end of the series which is intriguing since I've never seen any anime/manga does this perfectly like LoGH. In conclusion, this is the most realistic anime that I've ever encountered, and I don't think any other anime is gonna reach the heights of what LoGH has set. This was really a lifetime experience and I'm super glad that I gave this Machiavellian political anime a chance.
