| I mean, anime is not over yet and out of 10 reviews it has 8 are 'not recommended'. Only after first 3 or 4 episodes have been seen out of 12. I am aware that is has its flaws, mainly how many of the new things were missed to be mentioned in previous series and how many of the characters do not have deep personality. But still, I have watched 9 episodes so far and while I do have some criticism I would not go as far to call it a bad show. Even bad Code Geass anime. Two new main characters are interesting (you cannot expect everyone to be Lelouch and CC), some of the fights are really good and latest episode is heading toward some major development. Is it perfect - no. But it is so bad it should not be watched - also no. This show is similar to Akito the Exiled, it was a good show to watch even of we got minor appearance of some of the major characters from the original series. Like with akiho, I got in it with open mind and didn't expect anything else but expanding the established universs and I was not disappointed there. So, is it just me being too soft on this show or are the negative reviews it got really deserved? |

| I've also really enjoyed it so you certainly aren't alone. I think people set themselves up for disappointment by comparing everything that happens in this series to the original Code Geass. As an original modern mecha anime I think it is super fun to watch and the use of the Code Geass elements are to me a nice bonus rather than what defines the show. |

Si is it just me being too soft on this show or is the negative reviews it got really deserved? Basically, you're just saying it's not as good as the original. Well, no sh.t? Still enjoyable to see some of the old cast return, so just be happy with that. Also, your grammar is unbearable at points. Fix that fast. What I am saying is that the show is not so bad to deserve such low reviews. Hopefully it will be judged more fairly once all episodes are out and people can give it full review. And I am sorry for bad grammar, I only saw how bad it was once I got up. I guess one should not write comments in foreign language after being so tired. I fixed it now, hopefully it is much more understandable to read. |
| I also enjoyed this anime just like you. Is it as good as the original Code Geass? No, but it’s definitely worth watching. And it’s not canon either, it’s set in an alternate universe where LeLouch survived. |
| If I had to choose between One Piece and a girlfriend...I think I'll go with One Piece |
| sakuya is sexy hot so worth watching plus the op song is great |
| Sakuya is sexy lol as was said before and really enjoy this so far, to me if you enjoy code geass you should enjoy this as long as you don't try to compare original series, which have feeling some do with many series sadly. |
| Well, episode 10's plot twist(or reveal I guess) justified all those harsh reviews now. |

| @AshuAmbrose Why though? I like omnicide villains like Norland, they are the ultimate enemies. |
| All female characters in Code Geass are hot. I love the hot women. |

| @animegamer245 I agree, 24 episodes would do wonder for this show. Sadly, it was not to be. It is still not as bad but it is not as good as it should be. |
| the problem this series has so far is theyre just recycling stuff from the OG. the whole fake brothers thing, damocles stuff, even the goddamn antagonist. even the protagonist is basically just female lulu, but even i find her too lacking as a protagonist so far. it's been a while since i watched the OG but even i remember all of these stuffs. i just watch it so far to see how it's gonna end since i have watched 10 episodes so might as well riding it till the end but it's also easy to see why people won't recommend it. they really offer nothing new except if you want nostalgia. i'd rather have them make a series of lulu becoming geass hunter, that seems far more interesting than what this series offers so far. the only interesting tidbit is really about roze and the older bro's relationship but that's it. if they fuck that up as well since they love zooming fast with everything, there's really nothing else that can save this series since all the conflicts are just recycled stuffs from the OG. |

| the whole thing is a big mess, it's fun and it's nostalgic and i'm here to ride with it but maaan it can be a confusing splotchy all-over-the-place mess every episode has like 2 half-twists 3 motivation shifts and then a random jumble of maybe mechas maybe maid cafe maybe lelouch some empty buildup to some half-reveals that feel forced and small and what even is this pacing but when it's mechas and ridiculousness it is nostalgic fun, just gotta turn my thinking off. but when i try to trace what's happening in the story i just get more confused |

| @Zarutaku It's not about what he is doing but rather why he is doing it, not to mention that he is just a "Somehow, Charles returned" meme. |

| @AshuAmbrose I don't see why his motives would justify harsh reviews. He wants to eradicate humanity out of disgust for them, so what? He's a villain... |

| @Zarutaku If this was just another stupid Isekai it would have been fine, but this is Code Geass a show known for having deep characters with motives behind their actions. If they wanted to cheap out on the story then instead of banking on Code Geass's name they should have started a new mecha franchise. Norland is just a Charles clone(literally) and his personality is nothing more than that of a robot. |
