Review of Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion
Code Geass is awesome. If you have any qualms against it, whether you dislike mecha or anything like that, put it aside and watch a few episodes. Then you'll see what I mean when I say that Code Geass is a great anime. If you want an anime that is going to leave you on the edge of your seat, biting your nails, waiting impatiently for the next scene--this is for you. Art is pretty decent. It's very colourful. The animation is also good--the action sequences are well drawn. The characters are all interesting. Never have I seen an anime with a cast ofso many anti-heroes before: lots of jerks, losers, obsessed freaks, and extremists, but they manage to make you intrigued with their lives and the happenings around them.
The sound was also decent. A lot of trumpet and sweeping epic battle pieces that complement what happens on the screen.
Code Geass is so original as well. It's about colonialism, if you caught it. It's like a cool History lesson--but with mechs. This is certainly one of the best anime to have been released this century.
Watch it. It's totally fabulous.
