Compare the premise of Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu (Legend of the Galactic Heroes) with Grand Blue (Grand Blue Dreaming).
Story context
Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu (Legend of the Galactic Heroes)
Reinhard von Lohengramm and Yang Wenli rise on opposite sides of a long interstellar war. Their military decisions are tied to competing ideas about government, loyalty and the limits of power. Rather than following battles alone, keep the political institutions in view; victories and defeats repeatedly change the conditions under which each leader can act.
A second premise to compare
Grand Blue (Grand Blue Dreaming)
Iori expects an ideal university life after moving into his uncle's diving shop in Izu. The upperclassmen he encounters immediately make that expectation look optimistic. Diving supplies the setting, but the social comedy comes from mismatched expectations, unruly group behaviour and the gap between Iori's plans and the company he keeps.
