Review of Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion

To write a review for the best anime ever made, a one or two sentences is not enough: it needs a beautiful narration of words and simplicity to tell this masterpiece creation. Code Geass not only established their series as one of the best meccas theme animes, but among legendary anime ever made. Code Geass has been my top of the list of my favourite anime ever and easy to say that: its a beautiful creation that mix all different story, thrilling plot, fight after fight, twist after twist, and overall resulted in the creation of the world where you can't trust no one andthe one you can trust is your dream to change the world; to create a better future; to create and implement the plan; to make a successful future, a sacrifice is needed, and it resulted in forming the best anime ending maybe ever exists. While its mostly involving the mechas theme, but it also has big portion of political influence, a battle of ideology, the search for real truth, and fight between the cruel present and a goal to create a better world

Code geass tells a story about the annexation of current Japan by the britannia kingdom and change the whole system into the world where britannia rules, and one man, Lelouch Lamperouge or Lelouch VI Britannia as they call it, is a (former) prince of britannia empire who was thrown away by his merciless father King Charles. He wants to change the world he know today into the world he imagines, to create a better future for him, humanity, and especially his sister. To realize his plan, he gains a certain power named "Geass" that allows him to help him going through obstacles and struggles into realizing his goals. One day, he comes across a beautiful girl named C.C who gives him the power of Geass which is located in his left eye. His Geass allows him to control people and make them do any of his order.

He uses this power to crush the Britannian Empire and under the name “Zero” he leads the Black Knights, a terrorist organisation, and sets out to free the world from Britannia’s clutches.This is a show where you really don't know which one is true and what is the true meaning of truth. Having his hatred for the britannia empire and his father's betrayal, Lelouch with his new powers try to conquer the britannia empire and take his role back.

Art 8/10

Not the best art, thats for sure, but it has its own uniqueness and it suitable with overall mechas theme. Animation is good and the movement is pretty decent for 2000s anime. Its fine

Character 10/10

Lelouch Lamperouge is the greatest main character/anti-hero ever made, as the main character he is incomparable to other character and he has complete abilities that support him to gain his goals; a combination of smart-ass analysis, abilities to lead the team, His character developments is a genius thinking and his strong character is the one who keep me on continuing the series to see what he do next. Other supporting character such as Kururugi Suzaki, C.C., Neuphemia, etc is well-plotted and compliments the series that revolves around Lelouch’s ambition and sequence of thrilling non-stop fight between 2 of very different ideology. Up to this nowadays, Lelouch has become top of my list anime character ever thanks to his portrayal along the series

Sounds 10/10

You name it, Colours, Yukyoseinsyuka, Wage Routashi, etc has been the best soundtracks ever and it really fits the entire series.
