A new manga series based on the Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu (Legend of the Galactic Heroes) light novels will launch in the 45th issue of Young Jump magazine. It will be published on October 8.

Ryuu Fujisaki (Houshin Engi) will illustrate the new series, which will provide a unique perspective of Yoshiki Tanaka's original work. Fujisaki also released a sample illustration (pictured) of series protagonist Reinhard von Lohengramm. A previous manga series by Katsumi Michihara ended serialization in 2000. That version has more than 15 million copies in circulation.

The original light novels were published between 1982 and 1989. The novels have since been adapted into a 110-episode OVA series between 1988 and 1997. A new adaptation was recently announced to be produced by Production I.G.

Scored by 3 people. This guy apparently already completed it when the manga is still on-going.

With a mean score like that, it doesn't even need to be said how good a judge of character he is amirite.

I've read up to Chapter 10 of this manga. Right now, Reinhard and Kircheis are in their first mission on Kapche-Lanka. The manga seems to be covering the Gaiden arcs first. No real reason for any LOGH fan to rate this a 2. This manga adaption is actually pretty decent.

I seen scans of it on tumblr. It looks like garbage tbh. Siegfried looks like that one main guy from Fate/Stay Night I think think his name is Shiro Emiya or whatever idk.

I do like Reinhard's hair though still not as glorious as the anime counterpart.
