Review of Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion

The first anime that had me in withdrawal the longest! T^T After watching it , I could not watch anything similar for a while! At first, I thought, "Eww, mechas?!? Like Gundam?" but after bearing myself deeper, I slapped myself for doubting. Code Geass actually makes you care for the characters. The protagonist was executed well; whenever Lelouch came across a dilemma or faced a certain hardship, you really felt his pain and you deeply sympathized with him. Each and every character is unique and many of the most memorable characters have their dark side and flaws to them. There is no definite good or evil, rightor wrong.

This emotional evoktion had me cheering for him in the end! The end was brutally devastating-he executed his death very well and beneficitly instead of just dying, Oh, the end you know?

Also, the protagonist did win, even if it was just for a short time, which satisfied the viewer.

The fighting was delightful! Tehee, this series was like "Who has the more and stronger mecha wins." The plot was delicately twisted with the characters.

R2 was not another unnecessary extended sequel.
