A Code Geass Anime Review Of The Program

By Krystal Branch


When someone searches for the term 'code geass anime review' online, they will come up with results of a Japanese TV series. This series, by Sunrise, has proved to be extremely popular in several parts of the world, not only in Japan. The program is about a boy named Lelouch Lamperouge and his close family. His sister and his father feature in the series too.

The plot of the series involves Lelouch going to Japan when his mother died. He has to take special care of his sister, who has lost her ability to see and walk. Lelouch has a friend by the name of Suzaku Kururugi, and after a few years in Japan he also met a girl by the name of C. C.

C. C has stunning, green hair and a tattoo on her forehead, and she came to Lelouch's rescue as he was about to be executed by the Britannian Royal Guard. C. C offered Lelouch a 'contract', whereby if he fulfills her one wish, he shall have the King's power, or Geass. When Lelouch uses this power, he is able to make anyone do anything he commands. For example, to escape his execution by the guards, he ordered them to die. The guards then shot themselves with their own guns.

With the power that changed his life, Lelouch continues on his quest to find his mother's killer, and to eliminate the Britannian Empire. His ultimate goal is to find peace for his younger sister. He wants her to be able to live in a better world that is free of wars and fighting. Lelouch must lead a double life, because, to most, he is just an ordinary schoolboy doing usual activities, but in reality, he is a leader fighting against the nation's oppressors.

'Lelouch of the Rebellion' was the first of the series to be shown. It was first premiered in October of 2006 on MBS, or Mainachi Broadcasting System television network. After the premier, it was available to all in Japan, on Animax, in November of the same year. The reviews were positive, and the show was a hit, which is why a sequel followed very soon.

The sequel was first announced early in March of 2007, in print in an issue of Newtype. Before it was available on television, there were three private shows of the first episode. These shows were also in March, in the cities of Osaka and Tokyo. The Japanese stars who did the voices of the characters were invited to the private screenings, as well as a few thousand randomly selected persons.

In 2008, the series began showing in America. It was aired by Bandai Entertainment on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim programming block. Both seasons were available in English. Shortly thereafter, the series was also shown to people living in Australia and the Philippines.

There are plenty of products sold that relate to the show. The music of the program is available on CDs, and there are books written as well. In terms of video games, however, there are only Japanese versions. People who like the series should write a review on code geass anime online to let others know of their thoughts.
