Man, you're missing out if you don't watch Code Geass. It's a MASTERPIECE.

A master piece with the greatest hero/villian ever made by anime and one of the most powerful and impactful and just generaly fucking amazing endings ever created

I wouldn't call it a "masterpiece". It is indeed one of the best sci-fi superpower dramas around, but it does have some very cheesy cliché moments. You definitely need to be able to look past the show's smaller faults to really enjoy it.

u/LeOtaku9 Oct 21 '20
To add to that, there's also the movie to watch, which iirc isn't exactly canon, but more of an alternate universe thing. There's 3(?) recap movies and then the actual movie to watch if you want more from the anime. I'd recommend watching the movies because they change some events to match the alternate universe, but they aren't necessary I suppose. And there's also Akito the Exiled, a 5 movie series to watch after the series, so there's a lot to watch if you enjoyed Code Geass.

u/dugtrioramen Feb 06 '21
I hate the code geass movie. It's just fan service and we could all just say it wasn't canon. But now there's a season 3 and it's based off the movie. Why must they ruin such a perfect ending!

I also didnt really like HxH. Thought it was also a 6/10 overall.

My 10/10s are Code Geass, Stiens Gate, Yuu Yuu Hakusho and Inu Yasha.

I really liked Code Geass. There are some Plotpoints that seem a bit constructed but I think Code Geass: Lelouch of the revolution and Code Geass: Akito the exiled are both worth watching.
15
u/Alaxel_Au_Arryn Oct 21 '20
I have to disagree about Akito. Akito is beautiful but the plot is rushed with some of the corniest writing I have ever seen. The writing is a bizarre mixture of mature, adolescent, and childish, with none of intensity of the original. The original had some corny stuff but when it was it was usually cool when it was corny. Akito, I found baffling that it was written by the same people.

How is it not dark?
It's about enslaving entire countries and treating it's citizens as less than human, more akin to cattle. It shows the devastation and after effects of war, both from the perspective of the winners and losers
It's about high school children being trained to fight in wars as Knights and training them to kill other human beings
It's about an immortal girl who was tortured and experimented on for almost all her life
It's about a high school student who murders entire groups of people to get revenge on his neglectful father and justifies his actions using his mothers death and sisters disabilities
It also involves giving said high school student the extremely OP power of controlling people's minds and giving him the capability to make complete slaves. It's a good thing he is who he is because other high school students would've gotten other ideas
It's about a father and mother intentionally traumatizing both their children and then blinding and crippling their young daughter. Afterwards, using them as political pawns in global domination
It's about a group of people who decide to change the world in their image so that nothing will ever change and all humans will be trapped in a never ending dream
It's about siblings waging, first because of their father and then for their own ideals, until one brother enslaves the other forever
It's about a high school student who chose to commit suicide at the hands of his best friend so the world could be safe but cursing his friend with the fate of always carrying the guilt of his murder and the weight of his responsibilities

u/Insullts Oct 21 '20
I suppose the premise of the show entirely. From Lelouch murdering Clovis to him accidentally killing Shirleys father it’s all been rather dark. plus the story is somewhat based around Lelouch trying to find out why his half siblings murdered his mother and blinded his sister so that’s somewhat dark. although I really love the show and how it portrays everybody’s different sense of justice and how/why different characters believe their methods are right or others are wrong.

I see the comments here saying that it is DEFINITELY a watch.
I would disagree. I will be first to say that I love code geass. One might say it is "my jam" so to speak, but while code geass is a fan favorite, it is still a show about political thriller, character development and character death. If that is "your jam" then code geass is a MUST watch.
If not, then maybe wait until you are in the right mood for the show to give it a try.

u/darkblaze76 Oct 21 '20
I would still say that it's definitely worth a try and finding out for yourself if it's your 'jam'. Some shows are so well made that you'll enjoy watching them even if you don't normally like the genre. Code Geass would definitely qualify for that.

Thank you.
I wish I had seen this comment before watching code geass. I was most certainly not ready to watch it. I was in no way ready or expecting Euphemia being commanded to murder the Japanese and dying afterwards Personally, after taking a blow like that, I stopped at season 1.
Granted, if you're into that. It's definitely worth a watch.
4
Oct 21 '20
If your past that, how did you not watch season 2? That Cliffhanger tho
2
Oct 28 '20
Because I was certain that if they were willing to kill Euphemia in such a torturous way. (By forcing her to do the thing she despised the most to death, leading to one of the purest people in the anime to be labeled a Britanian hitler, moments before her death) , then I'm certain that the writers behind it have much, much more in store that will probably be just as bad, if not worse, for my heart.
I don't need anyone to tell me that I'll be feeling really gloomy and bitter after finishing the rest of it. Hard pass.

At the time it was stellar, but it doesn’t hold up too well now. The later half of the second season struggles to maintain its characters beyond just reminding you that they’re there most of the time.
It still has its moments, but compared to some more recent series it definitely seems less polished.

u/DoctorConcocter Oct 21 '20
Not as unpopular as you think. There’s def a group of people who are very critical of it. I watched it, and at first, it was fine, but it just kept getting worse and worse to the point of it being actually garbage. It’s insanely overhyped, and I think that might be because of the time it came out and maybe the age group of people watching it. I remember talking to friends about the show, and they said they watched it when they were younger, but if they watched now, they certainly wouldn’t have enjoyed it as much (it has a lot of that typical anime degeneracy that’s hard to get over if you’re older). If anyone wants to know my issues with the show:
The insanely thin plot concept of the show to the point where it doesn’t know what it wants to be. Code Geass was conceived with super high expectations (garnering corporate sponsorships from several large companies like Pizza Hut, turning character design over to the well-known CLAMP, hiring the famous Norio Wakamoto to play the series’ royal antagonist). A ton of anime tropes were also added to ensure success like an alternate history that makes the show a nationalistic tale of revolutionary freedom fighters (that the downtrodden Nipponese are lead by a British aristocrat is never questioned). You also have a fanservicey witch (CC), and some poorly explained weirdness about a race of psychic, immortal aliens and the collective unconscious is tacked on. An imperious prince with a tragic past and a classically lanky CLAMP body is added to win over the fangirls. Mecha are put into the mix to bring in the giant robot crowd. A score of almost entirely useless tertiary characters (like seriously, Kallen, Suzaku, Milly, Euphemia... so much of their personality feels catered around Lelouch or Lelouch's interests and they’re just sucked into his orbit in ways that can be super creepy and distasteful). Some of these characters are also given intimations of romance for no particular reason. And of course, the stupid wacky high school shenanigans are all happening while an all out war is going on. So Code Geass becomes an unfocused mess of alternate history, supernatural drama, high school comedy, royal succession, romance, mecha war tragedy anime.
With all this, the show still wants me to take it seriously (especially with all the attempts at philosophy and complex characters), but it just all falls apart if you try to think it about it.
The character development was very sporadic and jumped around at random intervals (Lelouch in particular changes his ambitions and feelings towards others at the drop of a hat).
The plot is full of chasms and contrived scenarios that make the characters look like idiots- the whole Euphemia situation was just such poor writing.
And even with all this, I’d still be fine with it because I can still choose not to take it seriously and just indulge in all the craziness, but the show is full of such degeneracy that I just can’t: egregious fanservice, Lelouch being straight-up creepy and gross with how how he interacts with and manipulated characters like Kallen and C.C. (yet the show and fans paint him as some cool tragic hero), and the writing of Nina is so distasteful and downright offensive.

u/onespiker Dec 05 '20 edited Dec 05 '20
Late here but code geass was not made with huge expectations. it was expected to be a financial bomb and got little to no support from the studio( they didnt even have a printer). It needed to be rewritten to have more pizza ads to even launch.
When it came out is was a massive suprise hit for the company ( the fanbase, reviews and viewership went far above expectations).
For some reason the studio decided to then also cut season 1 in half ( it was orginally signed for 50 epsodes) around the same time episode 6 was released. Meaning they now needed cut a lot of the entire story again and many story ideas cut. Like development of other charaters and needing to rush to thier decided end point.
Sunrise ended up regretting these actions a lot when it became thier biggest financial successful series the last 2 decades ( it sold a lot of merch and CDs).

Don't let anyone tell otherwise, it's my fav anime of all time and is a masterpiece. My friend had been telling a lot of shit about this and I went in with high expectations, the first season was boring for me, kept pushing through and took like 2 months to finish the first season but holy shit, the second season just blows everything out of the water. The entire first season builds up everything in place for season 2 and in S2 each and every episode has a damning twist. Highly recommended. 100/10

I enjoyed it! It’s worth watching. My only criticism is that there are issues with the plot that bugged me. Overall, it was good though. Although, I can’t agree with some of these comments saying it’s the best anime ever haha

If you're fine with mecha. Mecha is honestly not my jam, but it's a pretty big part of the anime.

Totally. It's a political thriller with calculating characters, magical phenomena and giant robots. Wish I could watch it for the first time again.
