Review of Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion
I personally love Code Geass it has an amazing storyline and great animation to add another level of to the depth of the character and story; the characters exemplify many motifs of hate, utopian idealism, and love, and as a whole introduces a twisted approach to create peace within this world. Code Geass as many say, is a variation of Death Note, but holds its own, especially in originality. The storyline is the Code Geass' strongest point, an array of goals with both good and bad intentions. What truly makes it great is the lack of good side and bad side, as there are good principleson each.
The characters are not flawless, but they are strong, characterizing human nature and its flaws and strengths as well as the desire to do good. The evolution and deterioration of friendship as well as the personal goals drives each character to change and grow.
The animation of Lelouch and the robots is exceptional. The hand movement and facial expressions by Lelouch bring out the depth of his character as harsh cold yet in love with this world.
Now it has been awhile since i last watched Code Geass (watched twice) but as i can recall the music did not detract from any part of Code Geass.
One of my favorite animes I highly recommend this somewhat mind blowing anime that contains a lot of originality. It is definitely worth watching and is the closest anime to masterpiece, which I am still hunting for!
