This is a great show of around 110 episodes. The show is a bit old : 1988 to 1997 but still fantastic. There was a new version in 2019 but I am not a fan.
This is what the show is about without revealing too much :
The story is staged in the distant future. A portion of the galaxy is filled with worlds inhabited by human beings. For 150 years two mighty space powers have intermittently warred with each other: the Galactic Empire and the Free Planets Alliance.
Within the Galactic Empire, based on mid 19th century Prussia, an ambitious military genius, Reinhard von Musel later conferred Reinhard von Lohengramm is rising to power. He is driven by the desire to free his sister Annerose, who was taken by the Kaiser as a concubine. Later, he wants not only to end the corrupt Goldenbaum dynasty but also to defeat the Free Planets Alliance and to unify the whole galaxy under his rule.
In the Free Planets Alliance Star Fleet is another genius, Yang Wen-li. He originally aspired to become a historian through a military academy, and joined the tactical division only out of need for tuition money.
Besides the two main heroes, the story is full of vivid characters and intricate politics. All types of characters, from high nobility, admirals and politicians, to common soldiers and farmers, are interwoven into the story. The story frequently switches away from the main heroes to the Unknown Soldier fighting for his life on the battlefield.
The show is about space battle and tactics yes, but also heavily about politics. The politic part is one of the best part of the show.
The characters in "both" side are really good and their personalities, feelings, problems feel "real".
All in all I can only advise you to watch this show as fast as you can. And if you have already seen it lets dicuss here !
