Rating: 8.3/10 Impressions: A pretty mediocre episode if you ask me, except for a few things I have been waiting to happen which brought the overall enjoyment up. The identity of the pilot of the Lancelot is finally revealed, meaning Karen and Lelouch will both act very differently the next time they meet Suzaku (that’s a meeting [...]

As Shirley reels from the aftermath of the last episode, Lelouch tries to deal with the potential leak of his identity; his investiations lead him into the path of Mao, another Geass user, and another battle at Narita ensues. I can’t decide where I fall in the various camps over this Mao storyline. There’s a [...]

No, it’s not a fan service episode! It’s just a recap similar to the previous episode 8.5. Gundam Seed have around 3-4 episodes for recap and Code Geass is seems to follow the trend. You should be familiar with most of the scenes except for the last part when Euphemia appoints Suzaku [...]

Yes, another manga spin-off of Code Geass (the last one being Suzaku of the Counterattack). The interesting thing is that this time, instead of following the story, they're just going to pull plot out of their asses. Lulu is now missing along with C.C., Suzaku isn't introduced yet, and Nunnally gets a fully functional body and an EVA-01 lookalike after a contract with a white doll-thingy. And no, I'm not smoking anything.

Unfortunately, this episode o Code Geass is another recap episode, and is not a continuation of the previous episode. As episode 8.5 was the previous recap episode that focused on Lelouch, this recap episode is focused on Suzuka, and his relationship with Lelouch. This recap episode plays out in typical fashion, as this episode used recycled [...]

SUNRISE mecha shows usually have a few similarities and motifs that pop up from time to time. There are two motifs explored in this episode, the first is being stranded on an island with a person of the opposite sex/army, and the other one is revealed later in the post: Code Geass 19.

What a surprisingly pleasant episode this one turns out to be. I always like it when a series goes through a character development, showing what this character would be like if the circumstance is changed a little bit. Interestingly enough, the more they know each other, the less hostile they tend to be. I guess it's a lot harder to shoot someone when that someone happens to be someone that you actually know very well. There are also several surprising revelation which makes me wonder about the murder of Marianne, Lelouch's mother. At this point, it seems the main suspect would be either Schneizel or the Emperor himself. It would be ironic if all of these times Lelouch was blaming his siblings only to find that it's just his father was responsible.

Impressions: Wow, that’s a shitload of fanservice if you ask me. This ‘picturebook’, or ‘set of still frames of pure fanservice with voice overs’ is a must see if you like to fawn over the Geass girls. Apparently, this is episode 3.25, which reminds me of Platform 9 ¾ from Harry Potter. I don’t know why [...]

Another OP sequence, another mecha introduced that Lulu won't get to touch: Code Geass 18. Satire comments and inappropriate screencap captions inside.

Kaidoku Funou (2nd Ver) (17MB, for PSP/Quicktime) Well, they scramble the opening again but except for one single shot of Orange-kun, there's nothing exciting about it. Thankfully the episode itself is interesting and the ending is the kind of cliffhanger that I usually hate but for some reason it's kind of exciting here. At any rate, I hope this episode serves as some kind of eye-opener for Suzaku. I realise that he's willing to sacrifice his pride to save his people but this episode shows how much Britannia , 2-3 people aside, do not care for him. Anyway, it's clear by now that there's no way the writers can solve the majority of the plot by the time episode 24 ends. No wonder they need another set of season to complete the series.

Thing is getting more interesting as the remains of the Japanese Liberation Front team up with the Order of the Black Knight. Rakshata also made her debut along with her new creation the Gekka which she prepared to be pilot by the Japanese Liberation Front members. The new Knightmares easily outperform those [...]

Mwhahahahahahahahahaha!!*cough*cough*Kallen!*cough*lozenges!*cough* It’s revelation time on Code Geass, where Lelouch finally finds out that Suzaku is the pilot of the Lancelot. Lelouch’s reaction was just awesome: complete freeze-up and freakout, complete with evil psycho laugh, though Lelouch needs to work on his ” Just as planned ” laugh. Get some advice from Diethard. He was The Count. [...]

I hate him like impz hates Shiori Zero and The Order Of The Black Knights are tasked with helping free the Japanese Liberation band frontman, Kyoshirou Toudou, in a daring PRISON BREAK (©20th Century Fox) before Suzaku executes him (because that's his way of the government lapdog-dattebayo). During so, Lelouch finally discovers the identity of the Lancelot pilot and snaps... or has he devised a

This was an exciting and eventful episode - possibly too eventful, but I found it enjoyable nonetheless. - Lelouch seems to have decided that he needs a protector for Nunally, so that he can distance himself from her for her safety as he did with Shirley. He originally wanted Suzaku to play this role, but obviously [...]

I seriously think Code Geass is an anime emanating both wit and wisdom. Am I weird? * * * The very first thing about Code Geass that made me want to watch it was its subtle nudity. It wasn’t really an intelligent reason, or even something proper, but I’m glad I did, because more than promiscuous images [...]

The dramatic irony is finally revealed, and epic realizations are made. Unfortunately, Lulu's still stuck with his same old junk: Code Geass 17.

What!? That stupid Mao is still alive!? After been shot by so many bullets and yet he’s still breathing, damn he’s lucky. I thought the series will continues with the warfare thing but they prolong the show with Mao’s revenge episode. He comes back to kidnap Nunnaly as a hostage to revenge [...]

Funny things happen. This is not one of those things. Danbooru fanservice and short story of stupidness ensue.

Well, this turns out to be a surprisingly effective episode. I'm not too keen on some of the set up scenes but they are necessary in order to facilitate the plot progression. At any rate, I am glad the writers decide to go towards this direction this early in the story. It would have been annoying if they keep postponing it until the last few episodes of the season. I am also surprised to see a previous subplot reappear so quickly after the writers made an attempt to put it aside not too long ago. With this and the above plot progression, I think they want to make Lelouch's life as miserable as possible. C.C was right when she said taking the power would have made Lelouch lonely. I, however, am more interested to see how awkward the student council meeting would be should there be one anytime soon.
