Where to Stream or Buy *Legend of the Galactic Heroes* Anime in English

Updated

The original Legend of the Galactic Heroes anime is available to stream with English subtitles on HiDive, and on Blu-ray in a limited edition from Sentai Filmworks. The remake, Legend of the Galactic Heroes: The New Thesis, streams on Funimation with an English dub for Seasons 1–2. These options come from the LoGH InfoCenter (logh.net), whose listings were last updated April 24, 2021, so availability and stock should be confirmed with each service before you commit.

Streaming options at a glance

Version Service Language option Notes
Original series HiDive English subtitles Listed as available for streaming
Remake (The New Thesis) Funimation English dub Seasons 1–2 only

If you want the original story as it first aired, HiDive is the listed route. If you prefer a dubbed, modernized retelling, Funimation covers the first two seasons of the remake. The two are separate productions, so choosing one does not give you the other.

Buying the original on Blu-ray

Sentai Filmworks offers the original series on Blu-ray in a limited edition with English subtitles. The InfoCenter flags it as low stock, which means the safest approach is to check the Sentai Filmworks store directly rather than assume it will stay available. Limited editions in particular tend not to be restocked once they sell out.

Before you decide

  • Confirm region and subtitle details on the product or streaming page; the InfoCenter lists English subtitles but not region coding.
  • Check current catalog status. Streaming licenses change, and the site's own listings date to 2021. A title listed then may have moved or expired.
  • Distinguish the versions. The original and The New Thesis are different works with different episode counts and casts; pick based on whether you want the classic release or the remake.
  • For the novels, the complete 10-volume series is available in English in paperback and Kindle formats (per the same site), which is a separate purchase path from the anime.

The logh.net InfoCenter itself is a fan-run reference hub with sections for news, novels, media, fan sites, and publishers; it points to these retailers and streamers rather than hosting content. Use it as a starting index, then verify availability at the source.
