To be honest... I don't like recaps.
But somehow I watched it anyway...

Agreed...
recaps had nothing new in them..
provided SOME extra information that we already inferred out of the normal episodes..

I actually really love these recaps >w< maybe just because I'm the kind of person who loves rewatching things.. to me they're like the events that happened solely from Lelouch's perspective and it's nice to see his thoughts on things that previously we viewed from other characters. Also I'm impressed with how recycled footage still managed to be interesting ^___^;;

17.5 was nothing new, but 8.5 was pretty interesting.

It seems you were forced to watch it.

Another recap, but just like the last one, it goes over the important stuff so that is nice.

3/5

Even though I wasn't expecting much from the recaps, this was a welcome recap. I liked how Lelouch deconstructed the psyche of Suzaku and a lot more things made sense. I liked how I could revisit those battle scenes again.

Both of the recaps were quite good actually. I would definitely put them as best recaps for the series. The recaps don't focus on the filler stuff much and puts emphasis on Suzaku and Lelouch's objectives.

Also, when chasing the cat, this gem of a subtitle flashed before my eyes.

"That one time that chick ran away"-Suzaku. LOL

Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate.


I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was bound to lead me to a slow death.

This was yet another nostalgic episode, so much emotion and hype it ùmakes me want to binge the series another time.

This was probably the best recap I've ever watched, editing is very seemless

Upon rewatching Code Geass 3 times including the recap movies, all the plot holes, dumb writing, plot conveniences & contrivances became more apparent.

The Highly praised ending Zero Requiem also makes no sense and feels contrived and forced to gain sympathy for Lelouch

10mins of pathos sequence and the grandiose opera soundtrack sadly can't fix all the plot holes, dumb writing and contrivances.
He could've kept the throne and made change happen differently. Even the upcoming sequels can't fix any of these.
These are irrefutable facts and the people who watched the show for the first time are blinded by the ending.

love a bit of code geass! Saw others expressing the same sentiment but I think these almost function better rather than as an recap, watching them standalone a while after you're already seen it, as a kind of condensed partial rewatch!
I have a third testicle that gives me psychic powers
