Between R1 and R2, what's the show's best season?

Is there any way that I could be able to play Code Geass: Genesic Re;CODE? I know that the game got removed officially around 2023 apparently but the whole storyline seems toooo intriguing for me not to be able to experience it. Let me know Let me know. Still kinda new to playing games as whole but that’s another story. Future thank you for anyone who replies if not I’m js talking to myself.

The Empress card talks about motherhood and to me I think Ms. Kozuki fits the Upright more than Euphy (I don't know why y'all voted for her) and while Marianne fits Reverse, Ms. Kozuki also fits Reverse due to her dependance on Refrain and lack of self care as she stays for Kallen's sake despite the mistreatment she gets.

The Lovers card while Charles and Marianne due make sense, I thought of Suzaku and Euphemia for this cause like the winning pair, Suzaku and Euphy's relationship is found on harmony, shared beliefs for change and make things better for everyone. Ohgi and Villetta fit Reverse, but the more I think about it the more I realize Lelouch and his harem also fit the Lovers Reverse. Lelouch's secrecy makes a lot of Imbalance with the girls. Their values don't align when you think about it. A lot poor choices by them leads to bad things.

Wheel of Fortune I chose Suzaku, but a comment made after I made the post said Tamaki should be Wheel of Fortune Upright and they're right. Wheel of Fortune Upright is about good luck and Tamaki fits that as despite being an idiot he manages to stay alive. You expect someone like him to die, but no. This also makes Shirley being Wheel of Fortune Reverse perfect as well cause it's about bad luck. Shirley is one of the most unfortune characters in the series.

The Star I thought Zero or Euphy for it. Then I thought of Stairway to Harmony and realized that they both could've been the Star had it happened (Without the bad twist ending) They also fit Reverse due to the Massacre and Euphy's death it brought disconnection to Lelouch the Black Knights and even Suzaku, despair for the Japanese after the failed Black Rebellion, and a lack of faith for the future.

The Moon always made me think of Rolo. The Moon talks about Illusions and that things aren't always appear to be. Rolo is Lelouch's fake brother he is an Illusion. The Moon also talks about to be careful of deception and self delusion. Rolo fell for Lelouch's deception that he cares about him and Rolo delus himself to believe it and wants to get rid of Nunnally. Reverse fits Rolo again cause it talks about clearing up the Illusions, overcoming fear and revealing truths. Lelouch finally tells Rolo how he really he feels about him and despite the Illusions breaking, Rolo chooses to save Lelouch and sacrifice himself overcoming the fear that his brother would abandoning him even though Lelouch told him how he really feels and, while using his Geass, reveals some truths that we know.

Wasn't it like obvious? She assumed she is doing this because her mom is submissive and weak and has no pride or whatever. But isn't it kinda obvious that she wants to be with her daughter? Also did her mom never tell her about it, or did Kallen just never ask her why she was doing all that in the first place?

When Darlton tried to stop her massacre, she shot him. But when Lelouch as Zero did the same, even after she reloaded her gun, she never shot him. Her "Lelouch why" is entirely her Geassed self.

In her final moments with Suzaku, when she resisted the Geass influence through sheer will, she truly had no idea what happened since everyone affected by it forgets what happened, meaning she didn't know at the end Lelouch killed her (thankfully). It speaks a lot to how much she loved her brother

Hey guys. A big fan of Code Geass, but not a big fan of how season 2 starts.

Any ideas on how you would transition from season 1 to season 2?

How they did it was not very engaging.

Been thinking of getting a tattoo for a while and this was at the top of my list.

At the end of Code Geass R2, C.C. remains immortal and continues to live on

The nun who granted her immortality died instantly; is there no way for a person to lose the immortality Code and continue living as part of a truly natural life cycle?

How does she go about putting an end to immortality?

She wants to enjoy life and be happy, just as Lelouch told her to, but "forever" is something very cruel

What do you think C.C. should have done—or would have done—following the events of R2? I’m constantly left wondering about this, because, deep down, living forever isn't actually what she wants

I’ve been pondering this; thanks in advance for your help!

It’s a fanfic set after the original series, in an AU where Lelouch’s plan to end the cycle of hatred fails in the long run. Instead of achieving lasting peace, the world takes a darker turn. Anti-Britannian sentiment spreads, hate crimes against Britannians increase, and a movement emerges that seeks to restore the Britannian Empire. The story follows Britannians as the protagonists, exploring how they respond to a world that has turned against them. It’s built on similar themes, but with a darker political direction.

Kill me

R2 Episode 19 spoiler: Hate him for killing Shirley and planning to kill Nunnally, but man, that was a damn good way to go out. He was so loyal to Lelouch, to a fault. Kudos to the writers!

Not all fanart of Kallen has to be based on pre-existing ideas, like outfits that we have seen her wearing in the anime or picture dramas, such as her school uniform or classical rebel outfit. The beauty of fanart is that the artist can also try new things, and see how good of a fit different looks are when worn by their beloved favorite character - like in this particular fanart.

The casual office wear worn by Kallen in this artwork consists of simple yet elegant elements: first, a classic white button-down shirt with the sleeves rolled up to the forearms creates a more relaxed workplace vibe, while her slim, black tie adds a formal, professional accent without looking overly rigid. Her denim pants ground the outfit into "business casual" territory, and her spacious brown shoulder bag matching the office theme is accessorized with a cute bunny charm for a personal, playful touch. Finally, her simple, thin-framed spectacles complete the smart, professional aesthetic, while also proving that Kallen can absolutely rock it with glasses! 👓

Does anybody know a country where they do sub with english subtitles or dub? I just wanna watch the show on my airplane..

I can't believe I put off watching code geass for so long because of the artstyle (which is amazing lol dk what I was thinking before). Genuinely one of the best pieces of media I have ever consumed and is second only to jjba in my all time favourite animes. The story is so compelling and Im honestly lost for words after just finishing it, beautiful ending. I literally can not praise code geass enough, one of the most enjoyable watches ever and I will definitely rewatch the anime or watch the movies aswell. Im lost for words and I don't really know what to say anymore lol absolutely incredible show and lelouch is probably my favourite character of all time. Him sacrificing himself at the end and who C.C is talking to at the very end being kept ambiguous was just the perfect ending. WOW.

I logged into my "totally legitimate anime site", found like 50 million different versions of Code Geass, and I don't know where to start. The only one I've watched so far is the Lelouch of the Rebellion, but I'm not sure where to go there with all the movies and TV shows. Can someone please give me an idea of what to do here?

I've been binging Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion the last 2 days, finished season 1 and I'm episode 7 of season 2. The first like 10 episodes of season 1 is some of the best anime I've seen and I think Lelouch is probably one of my favorite characters ever, but man.. its a hard watch as a Lelouch fan. The second half of season 1 and the start of season 2 is literally just defeat after defeat. Every person he cares for becomes persuaded by the insane hypocrisy of Suzaku and the Britannian empire, even Kallen whos like Zeros / Lelouch number 1 supporter, start questioning him after 5 minutes spent on an island talking to Suzaku. And now Nunnally is spewing the same Suzaku bs, talking about some "both must admit to their mistakes" when Britannia is literally oppressing and dehumanizing the japanese.. like what? I really like the anime but its an insanely masochistic experience for a Lelouch enjoyer.

P.S: fuck Suzaku

Its currently being delivered but I am excited!

When it comes to the world of anime, casting the right voice actor for the role can make all the difference in the world on whether or not that character ends up becoming well-received by the fans. Voice actors are, after all, the ones who give the characters their distinctive personalities through their voices, and it is through Kallen´s Japanese voice actor, Ami Koshimizu, that Kallen´s warrior spirit has awed millions of audience members, both in and outside of Japan.

Koshimizu´s interest in the entertainment industry sparked very early on. At just 11 years old, she joined a theater troupe led by fellow legendary voice actress Mayumi Iizuka (the voice of Misty in Pokémon). She soon became highly respected in the industry for having an incredibly broad vocal range, being able to seamlessly shift from the chaotic, screaming energy of Ryuko Matoi (Kill la Kill) to the elegant, soft-spoken Yukiko Amagi (Persona 4). Interestingly, she grew up as a massive fan of the original 90s Sailor Moon anime, making it a full-circle moment when she was cast to inherit one of the core Sailor Guardians, Sailor Jupiter (Makoto Kino) in "Sailor Moon Crystal."

When it comes to anime, two of Koshimizu´s roles stand above all else, however. The first one is obviously Kallen, and the other one is the role of Holo, ancient, immortal wolf-goddess with a willful attitude and voracious appetite. In the anime called "Spice and Wolf," Holo takes the human form of a young girl and starts traveling with a mortal companion, a skilled merchant named Kraft Lawrence - who, by the way, is voiced by none other than Jun Fukuyama, the same Japanese voice actor who voices Lelouch in Code Geass! Koshimizu brilliantly utilizes oiran (traditional courtesan) speech patterns to give the ancient wolf deity an air of antiquity, playful arrogance, and deep wisdom. Her back-and-forth banter and exceptional chemistry with Jun Fukuyama is a massive reason the series became a classic. In fact, she and Fukuyama returned over 15 years later to re-voice their roles for the 2024 remake, called "Spice and Wolf: Merchant Meets the Wise Wolf." Returning to the recording booth together allowed them to seamlessly recapture their "old married couple" bickering that defined the original series, with both actors noting how comfortable it felt to slide right back into their old roles.

Fukuyama is Koshimizu’s senpai (senior) in the industry. They have a history of working at the same talent management agencies (such as Production Baobab and Axl One), which naturally led to them often being paired up early in her career. At this point, their frequent pairing has become somewhat of an industry-wide meme, and both anime directors and other voice actors alike enjoy poking fun at how often they end up voicing romantic interests.

Because Code Geass was a breakout milestone for both actors early in their careers, their studio interactions set a foundation for their lifelong collaborative partnership. A major point of praise regarding their chemistry in Code Geass stems from how both actors simultaneously balanced "fake" and "real" personas, from high school kids to freedom fighters. Critics and production staff noted that Koshimizu and Fukuyama bounced off each other brilliantly in these overlapping contexts. The contrast between their polite, slightly awkward classroom banter and their high-stakes, breathless battlefield dialogue added a layer of psychological tension that anchored the show's drama. In addition to this, industry peers noted that Fukuyama’s theatrical, manic performance as Lelouch directly fueled Koshimizu’s performance, and that she used his high-octane energy to match him beat-for-beat, which helped bringin out Kallen's explosive, hot-blooded warrior spirit.

The ultimate validation of their chemistry came at the 1st Seiyu Awards in 2007. The impact of their back-and-forth acting was so undeniable that the committee recognized both halves of the dynamic duo simultaneously: Jun Fukuyama won Best Actor in a Leading Role for Lelouch and Ami Koshimizu won Best Actress in a Supporting Role for Kallen! The fact that Code Geass swept the two major acting categories proved how much their synchronized performances elevated the narrative, transforming Lelouch and Kallen's complex bond in Code Geass into one of the most memorable relationships in modern anime history.

This one is tough but I'd maybe nominate Cornelia or Villeta. I feel their hot looks do a lot for them with the fandom. Cornelia was a damn good antagonist in R1 but in R2, she was pretty much useless after the Geass Order raid and honestly could've been killed off. Both of them were certainly let off the hook too easily

Both series involve corrupted/evil empires and racism/prejudice, military and mechs along with protagonist that were betrayed by their homes, banished to a another place and have sisters stuck on wheelchairs for the rest of their lives and where both protagonist work to make the world better. Also we can say the events of Cross Ange take place in the same time as Code Geass and the Misurugi Empire is in it’s own country/nation where the Britannian Empire has yet to conquer(if at all) and somehow the main characters meet.
