To be honest, I really don’t know. There’s just something about it that makes me happy to watch it or think of the story, or even read it! The story itself is super original and epic in its own way. The entire Ginga series is a coming of age story, one that deserves more recognition around the world. You follow the main character from the moment they’re born to the moment they become a hero. Nagareboshi Gin’s storyline rivals even The Lion King in my opinion. Also, that soundtrack makes everything better. We all know that sad song that plays from time to time. It starts off sounding like “Tomorrow,” then the electric guitar comes in and we all start crying. The background music in GNG makes you believe that you are with the characters. The first time I watched it, I felt everything they felt. The same thing is true for GDW(Ginga Densetsu Weed). Oh, and we can’t forget Takayuki Miyauchi. That man has one beautiful voice! As you follow the story, you’re able to watch the characters grow and develop. Character development is one of my favorite things about the Ginga series. (And now, I sound like an English teacher!) There’s just something magical about the last few episodes of GNG. The dogs finally return home after months of running around, ready to achieve their goal. Many precious sacrifices later, the deed is done, and that little Tora-Ge pup is a fiery warrior. I start to remember how the story began all over again. I feel proud of Gin and the generations to come. (By that, I mean Weed and Orion)
