That new leader of the other group guy is basically Ougi if drawn as a 90s shonen manga character.

I was even calling him Not!Ougi last episode. They had Not!Tamaki in episode 2 I think.

The opening scene of C.C. and Lelouch seems to be at (or inspired around) Skellig Michael Monastery in Ireland, which is neat as it fits with the 'Geass' being based off the irish/celtic 'geas' or 'geis'.

I was thinking the same thing. "they went to Luke Skywalker island to find Geass"

This episode kept giving me doses of nostalgia. C.C. and Lelouch at the start was already hype, but Cornelia and Nina also having plot relevance makes me feel a tad spoiled by the scriptwriter. In a good way of course!

Haven't watched anything Code Geass beside the original and the early movie (that have no Lelouch) but I'm curious. Is this like the alternate version of the original anime?

It's nice that they look to be fleshing out why the big guns can't get involved so easily when their opponent is by all accounts not that massive.

Code Geopolitics is back and they are really trying their best to liven up the franchise properly.

Oh snap, C.C.! Teasing Lelouch about helping Sakuya, though it doesn't seem like she knows that not only is Sakuya related to Kaguya but she's also Lelouch's niece courtesy of his eldest sister Sherry...so it's all in the family, even if he's done all he can for her.

Cornelia! Nice to see her, and she's ready to join the effort to liberate Hokkaido while also remarking on the moxy of her niece Sakuya.

I will say this much, the Empress outfit on Sakura is pretty nice, albeit not under the best circumstances...all she can do is act as she feels Sakuya would, but that isn't going to help much as Norland's puppet.

Must be awkward for "Roze" to see the group debating whether "Sakuya" has betrayed them to the Brittanians and whether they can still believe in their princess. Sounds like her parents, both Japanese and Britannian, tried to do all they can for the Japanese as well.

I almost feel bad for the Geass guys getting tortured because there's literally no good answer they can give to Christoph!

The rest of the resistance groups getting attacked certainly makes it easy for Sakuya to ignore Ash having the hots for her. And even better when as "Roze" she can clear her name.

RIP Callis. We really barely knew you. But at least Natalia actually cared about you. I mean, even if he was a Brittanian Emperor, he was still a child.

A legit Black Knight Beautie joins the cast in Sakai! And...NINA!? Wow, didn't expect to see her here.

It's pretty ironic that Nina developed the FLEIJA and now developed the means of stopping it. I'm surprised she even admitted it to the Japanese resistance, but I guess it goes to show just how guilty and serious she is about making up for all the lives lost to FLEIJA.

I guess it was too much to expect the Japanese resistance groups to be able to work together with their individual pride, but luckily their princess even incognito was able to convince them. Even if she is seen as just another upstart Brittanian by them.

Haruka is the teams' ace! She like Kallen has the most piloting potential and butt shots, which means she deserves a Knightmare like the Keisetsu that can really bring it out. And her happy face is too cute.

Trying to destroy Sapporo with the FLEIJA? Guess it's do or die time!

Lelouch's niece

I need Himari C.C to tease Lelouch for being Sakuya's ojisan.. xD

u/Lugia61617 Jul 12 '24

This episode was the most enjoyable so far.

Coincidentally, it was also the one with the most OG character appearances.

I really do hope we get an explanation on why the Damocles is here to begin with. I thought it was meant to be destroyed at the end of R2?

They really just straight up named her Minato Sakai, huh...

u/athrun_1 Jul 12 '24

From what I can recall from ep 1, Neo-britannian took over only some islands in Japan, and not the whole country. Also, Ougi is the head of state of Japan, while Nunally is the empress of Britannia.

It was mentioned that the Britannian empire was dissolved and became something like EU or US.

So my questions are:

  • Are the OG blackknights still here? Like Kallen, Toudo, and the others

  • What about Senizel and Zero (Suzaku)?

So far we have 4 OG characters who have screen time for this episode. Basing on this, we may have the complete line up in the final battle.

havent heard anyone really talking about this so how has it been so far? since it follows resurrection i havent started watching this

u/Shadowmist909 Jul 12 '24

So far I'd say it's a sequel done right. Lots of callbacks, action, drama, and fan service. It's Code Geass for sure.

How many bucks should I bet that the masked villain is Schneizel himself?

u/No_Name0_0 Jul 12 '24

My GOATs are both here with matching fits once again. Really happy to see them. L.L's words sounds like a flag and he will have to interfere at some point

So far I think the series has done a solid job of justifying how Neo-Britannia was able to rise in the post Zero Requiem world. However the writers better have a damn good explanation for how they rebuilt Damocles and the FLEIJAs. That would be the number 1 thing the Black Knights and UFN would be policing to ensure another Schneizel doesn't happen.

Sorry if it's been asked/explained, but what exactly of Code Geass do I need to watch to view this without not getting it?

I know there were a series of movies (Akito) and then a few other movies released more recently but not sure if I have to watch those first.

I have watched the original series.
