For those confused, there is a lot of content for Galaxy Angel, all of it drastically different.
First, there are the original games: basically visual novel/dating sim style games intermixed with a space combat sim. Those are the true source, and the most well-written. The characters are interesting and well fleshed-out, the story is decent, the romance paths are well-handled, the art and action is good, etc. All around, the games are what I think of first when someone mentions Galaxy Angel.
Next, there was the anime. The makers of the game arranged to have an anime made originally with the intent to draw attention to the games, but then a scheduling issue occurred and the games were delayed, leaving the anime studio nothing but character designs and the term "lost technology." Thus, the anime made up everything, from setting to character personalities to whatever you can think of entirely on its own that had zero relation to the true canon. It's funny, but it's VERY noncanon.
Finally, there's a fanmade online-playable doujin game that is sort of based on the anime's designs. It contains a fair amount of swearing and nudity and other adult content, and is the least canon out of anything that carries the name.
