I'm 61 episodes into Legends of The Galactic Heroes and it's nowhere near as good as people say it is. Not only is everything too long (why didn't it end after episode 55?) but it has a bad habit of moving its focus all over the place. It's decent and competent, but it ain't compelling a d calling it one of the best sci-fi stories ever is not something I can get behind.
>>23529659Nobody cares what you think
Bait used to be believable.
>>23529659This is how I feel about Star Trek, Babylon 5, Firefly, The Expanse, etc. They're alright but none of them are mind blowingly amazing or even worth discussing at the academic level.
>>23529659boomers never had good taste
>>23529668>>23529669It's duel.
>>23529659Why do you whine about SRW if you don't play the games?
I like how realistic it isThe Aliance won the war in the first few episodes after yang took over Iserlohn fortress and instead of making peace with the empire they decided to go into an unwinable war because the rulling class didnt give a shit about its people and needed a big succes to make them look good for next years election which resulted in a disatrous campaign that directly lead to the downfall of the allianceIts cartoonishly evil but at the same time IRL leaders are cartoonishly evil and complelty removed from the real world
>>23529659It's no Irresponsible Captain Tylor, that's for sure.
>>23531462one of my favourite arcs isn't a specific battle or campaignit's that time the alliance leaders imprisoned yang as part of a political witchhunt and tried to personally interrogate him as part of a secret hearing and prove his loyalty, but he keeps giving answers alternating between smartass, condescending, and impartial that trip up the interrogators
>>23531707i like how close he was to just quting out of spite the entire time during that interogation sceneThey almost drove out their golden goose with their witch hunt Again just like in real life
>>23529659That's because you have shit tastes and can't see quality when it's before you.
>>23529659wait until episode 82
>>23534195Show skirts the 10/10 line for 2/3 of the series and then drops to a 3/10 for the rest and loses any semblance of rewatchability with a single move
>>23533961>yes, stop having critical thoughts, just mindlessly agree and consoom!
>>23529659>it has a bad habit of moving its focus all over the place.with one sentence you've given away how badly you're brainrotted by short form content.multiple PoV, flashbacks,discussions are necessary for telling a COMPELLING multi dimensional story.ofc that isn't in style nowadays with everyone shouting a single point at you as fast as possible.
>>23534195Why did you have to remind me? Still that and the episode afterwards broke me on my first viewing.
>>23533961Explain how it is quality.>>23534652It's not compelling in any way and in my 35 years of life I never used some non-existent metric like "dimensions" in a story and if doing so results in behavior like that I think I'll manage.
>>23534652It's duel anon, the guy isn't actually watching the show.
>>23535178Dude stop, nobody is buying it.
