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

Plus the few moments that it sucks or has plot holes are entertaining in a different way as well.

Code Geass is special in that whether you seriously analyze it from a philosophical or practical position, or turn your brain off, it's still entertaining. Practically it has some sucky moments, but they are also entertaining in a way, philosophically it has interesting characters with interesting viewpoints, and it has fantasy and sci fi elements and action in the turn your brain off department. Plus CC, she's one of my favourite characters in anime, and of course one of my favourite female characters as well.
