Its LOGH! It's LOGH! Its heavy, its hard, its in space...

LOGH is relatively good, but suffers from "Gainax disease" in that the
first couple of episodes of the series are somewhat boring. It is even
worse than EVA or Nadia in this respect, as the story doesn't really start
until episode 9 or 10. Just huge space battles set to Wagner, where each
side seeks to out-stupid the other. Typical battle kills 2 million people,
etc etc. HUGE scale.

But, its a nice soap opera, and you can have a lot of fun if you imagine
that two of the characters (on the imperial side) are lovers. (heh heh)
ANd there is a lot of it, so you'll have a lot to trade or show at a
regular meeting...
