I had heard of this and heard lots of good things about this before I had saw the first six episodes of this at Animethon 14 yesterday. Not many people have heard of/seen this show since it hasn't been released into North America yet, but if it ever does get a wide release- I recommend everybody checks it out.
Filled with tons of action, blood, and witty humor, Code Geass takes place in 2017 Shinjuku, where Britannia has declared war. Lelouche Lamperounge is a Half-Japanese prince of Britannia. He is long believed to be dead. He has secretly lived, making plans for revenge against assassins sent by Royal relatives for killing his mother and crippling his sister. He is a military genius, but that dosen't help the fact that he's a powerless high school student and orphan. One day, he gets caught in a Terrorist Act's crossfire, tries to help a strange woman named CC. She grants him powers. Now, he has all it takes to be a powerful military leader and lead in the crusade against Britannia's attack.
Code Geass is awesome- Action-packed, lots of blood (I.E. The mass suicide in the beginning, when everybody shoots themselves, blood LITERALLY rains out of the wound), funny as all hell, and amazing voice acting is to be found too.
If you ever are able to get ahold of this classic rare gem of an Anime, go for it. It's awesome, and it's the best anime I've ever watched. I hope to watch more episodes some time. Totally recommended! Rated 14A for Violence, Gory Scenes, Coarse Language, and Non-Sexual Nudity. (Canada- Animethon 14 rating)
score 10/10
