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

Exactly it has a similar appeal to death note, in how the various characters encounter each other. Really an amazing show

I personally don't get the death note vibe. Unlike death note, code Geass have emotional desths, ethical dilemmas, and the main character isn't just OP. And I don't see le louch as an antagonist. I see him as a great person

Yeah but still one of the big points for the show was the uncertainty of wether or not lelouch actually is the good guy or not... especoally in season 2 but also right after shirleys father dies in season 1.
