Code Geass Discussion

I think what he means is that it's simply a cash-in on the success of the original series.

I mean if it was really a cash-in on the success of the original series. Don't you think they would have made it longer? It's only 4 or 5 OVA's long while Code Geass was 50 episodes long.

That's a fair call, I mean the only reason I will be watching it as the OVAs are released instead of waiting for all of them is simply because it's Code Geass. It's the same deal with Gundam Unicorn.

Looking back though I did watch that mediocre Nunnally in Wonderland OVA so I guess I can't talk huh?

Why do you say that? Would you rather they call it something else? I think it's necessary because it tells us what happened between R1 and R2.

Like Jolteon said was, it's that it seems to be a sort of cash-in. If it ends up being just as entertaining and memorable as the original series that's great, I'll probably watch it then.

If it is a cash in then a few OVAs seem pretty cost effective to me, rather than producing an entire new series.

Did they ever dub the Nunnally in Wonderland OVA? because I refuse to watch Code Geass and no Jhonny young bosch in it although I will make an exception for Akito.

You have a point, not to mention it is showing in theaters before being released onto DVD.

Each OVA is 50 minutes there are four OVAs, so 200 minutes, if you consider an average anime episode is roughly 20-22 minutes (excluding the OP + ED) they will get roughly 10 episodes worth of time out of it, that's close to a full regular season anime, and longer than some.

One thing I forgot to ask, Jolteon, was I see now why Lelouch is immortal thanks to your deduction but mind explaining to me why Nunnally was able to see Lelouch's plan for the Zero Requiem by touching his hand?

Nunally was already able to tell whether or not someone was telling the truth just by holding someone's hand, why couldn't she see more? Besides it couldn't have been some kind of Geass, as one there was no Geass symbol in her eye, and two Lelouch didn't have the code.

The OVA only came out around a month ago so there's no chance it would have been dubbed (plus Bandai went under if I recall correctly).

I do enjoy Johnny Yong Bosch's Lelouch but I also appreciate Jun Fukuyama's Lelouch as well.

Any of the OVAs worth watching?

C.C got shot in the head in episode 1 of R1 and stayed down for quite a while. So maybe it depends on the injury or maybe they can control how fast the wound(s) heal?

Unless he could stay dead for hours, or until they buried him I doubt he would've gotten away, everyone else seems to have convinced you already though.

Sorry I meant to put "I see now why Lelouch is NOT immortal"

As for Nunnally, don't you think it's a bit odd though? I mean yes she can tell if a person is lying, but they made it seem as if she was psychic or able to read minds(like Mao lol). She shouldn't be able to know all that by just touching them, unless she had help with some supernatural aid.

Bandai went under? Wow. That's probably why I think they sold Code Geass to Funimation.

Sorry I wouldn't know I haven't watched any.

 

[Silent Angel]

What?! Bandai is gone? Now there won't be anymore Digimon from them :/

Well anyways, Cascade, that question was aimed at everyone on the thread. Read there was one where Lelouch comes back on his birthday or something kinda like a ghost or something, anyone know if that one is good?

Can anyone tell me if I can get this Code Geass game imported to the U.S?

That's Another Century's Episode: R, it features a bunch of different mechas from different series (Code Geass obviously being one) it's on the PS3 so it's not region locked, which means you can import it.

Okay, thank you.

I just bought Code Geass 2 weekends ago. My friend loves this anime. So, I thought I would give it a chance. So far I am on episode 2.

You do know they have the first season free on YouTube right?

Gurren Lagann's free on YouTube and I bought that. Same with Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood. For me, it's if I love the series enough, I'll buy it. BUY EVERY ANIME YOU WATCH EVER

I always try it out before I buy it. I don't want to waste money on an anime I know I won't like. I do have Code Geass R1 on DVD though, I'm just mad they still have not released R2 yet.

Where do you live that they haven't released R2?

Also I agree with watching a series before you buy, but there are much better alternatives to YouTube (that come with much better quality).

I live in the U.S. I should have been more specific though. I wanted the anime legends set of Code Geass R2, I haven't checked though to see if they released it yet.

Here is a video of R1's trailer:

YouTube's fine since it's so convenient. At least when I'm watching on my iPod where quality isn't much of an issue. I hardly watch YouTube anime on my laptop unless it's old to begin with or something.

Odd, I just saw the set last weekend at Fan Expo. This one to be precise.

And for an official trailer they could have done way better.
