Synopsis by Cammila Collar
This epic OVA series consists of 110 episodes chronicling the extremely complex political, personal, and military lives of a wide network of characters. The story takes place in the 35th century, when humans have long been living on nearly every inhabitable planet in the Milky Way. The Galactic Empire, based for the most part on 19th century Prussia, battle against the Free Planet Alliance, a democratic entity, for both literal and symbolic control of the galaxy, and much complex intrigue follows.
