If its the game I vaguely remember from 10+ years ago, I recall it had yuri vibes? You played as a female- or could choose to, and all the crew were female?

^Nope, you play as a male MC. There were no yuri vibes whatsoever either (well unless you wanna see them).
Ranpha and Forte kinda had an interesting dynamic though, so I see why this pairing exists. There is actually a doujin for them too if I remember right.

I still hate the fact that the third game crashes at the first battle.

Wow that's unexpected
I never thought I'd see my favorite series be yuried

Still not my favorite girl though
(I remember there was one episode of galaxy angel when Forte turned into a man randomly and Ranpha fell for her)

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.

I had a quick check and I was remembering the fan made doujin dating sim game with all the swearing lol- you can play as girl.

@carlosraruto: check your video settings. The games are old, and get finicky about changing resolutions. Despite having a setting for changing the game resolution, my experience is that you need to keep it set to its native 640x480, or it will crash trying to change resolutions between the VN and space sim portions. You may need to poke at your video card settings to ensure that it doesn't tamper with the resolution either. Creating a shortcut that allows you to run it in windowed mode can sometimes help as well.

Whoa, I had no idea Galaxy Angel started as VNs. I was only familiar with the anime (which I love, god is it stupid and great- that one episode were Mint is Milfeulle's dad, if I'm remembering correctly) and the manga. I'mma look into the games now. But even from the anime, I always liked these two's interactions.

As someone who has played way too many VNs, I honestly wouldn't rank the GA games very high. They are certainly fun though.If you want to play every single route across the three VNs you'll be playing for quite a while haha

Ranzo May 20, 2019 3:22PM

Well my love for them comes from the fact that GA was my favorite anime and the fact that you can go out with my fav character(with an actual story behind it) was way too appealing
Especially since the manga tie in made it a milfeulle romance only

^It's fine, we all wanted to date Ranpha. There is certainly nothing wrong with loving this series.
