I'm always conflicted about this. It's true that R2 was a tranwrecking fuckfest, but it's also where everything came together and we got the greatest finale we could've asked even if Lelouch ended up being NTRd twice by Kallen and CC

They completely reworked the second season after it got a time slot change right. So we never saw what was suppose to happen.
>>
Is this some sort of joke? The show was an utter mess in the second half and was laughably bad. Sure the beginning was good but when it turns into a shit show with plot twists every 5 minutes, the story takes a major hit.

Fact of the matter is that anons haven't seen this show in years and forget how embarrassing the second season was.
>>

Nah, I re-watched it like a week ago. Your bias is clouding your judgement.

>Utter delusion.

Do you anon, I said my piece and won't be replying to anymore posts. Second season was trash and was a stain on the Code Geass series.
>>
>>141106139
>Utter nonsense.
The 2nd season may not have been as well thought as the 1st but it made up for that in sheer entertainment and a great ending.
>>
>>141101080
Anime is completely original and not based off anything so the mango is worthless unless you want a different telling of the story.

The end of the movie recap of R2 adds a little monologue during the credits by CC that talks about how much she misses Lelouch, so he's dead.

Code Geass is a show that gets better with time not worse.
Rewatching really shows how well and consistent all the characters were and all the little details and things you just wouldn't get unless you've already seen it.
>>
>>141105964
Eh, there are bits and pieces out in the Internet if you look for them. The ending would be similar in any case. Also, Lelouch would have defeated Suzaku but lost to Charles in early S2 and been imprisoned, which isn't all that different from what really happened. So the differences would be relative in many cases, rather than absolute.
>>
>>141106005
I've rewatched the show like three times and so have plenty of anons. It's a mess during the second half, but that doesn't mean it was all bad. You're also being quite hyperbolic about the plot twists "every 5 minutes" too.

The movie recap of R2 doesn't replace the actual Code Geass TV series, so it doesn't prove anything.

MFW I finished watching Code Geass for the first time and realized the best MC ever died.
>>
>>141106340
I think that's it, yet.
>>
Even R2 makes more sense when you rewatch the show with a good memory of what happened. Not "I forgot everything about Code Geass except Lelouch dies" but an actual good idea of how things went.
>>
>>141106340
Yes.

>>141106367
If you're going to deny a fact simply because of some bullshit about it not replacing the main series then I'll just go ahead and disregard your post.

I'm gonna start doing this shit like every year, just like I do with Disappearance of Haruhi.

Here's the thing: even if Lelouch lived, then the whole point of his "death" is to make it a believable lie. In-universe, almost nobody would know.

>>
>>141106578
If we're going by the common theory everyone has about Lelouch and CC running away and living on together forever as immortals then CC has to know his fate. In this case, she's reminscing and missing him, kind of saying he died.

Thing is, if you take that literally, then:

a) Whatever isn't included in the recap should be assumed to not have happened.

b) The light novel adaptation of R2 describes the cart driver smiling. Why is that?

Cerberus is shit. Do not watch it. It also doesn't have the "magic" Code Geass had that captivated /a/ almost 10 years ago.

Big Order is already worse than Guilty Crown and Valvrave so if you want a poor clone of Code Geass then I guess that's it. But you'd be hurting yourself.

Otherwise, not much.

Someone might of told you Sam&jerry is written by some geass folks but it isn't similar.
There is the other show with the op as fuck guy with geass like powers but the show is also nothing like CG.
In CG lelouche actually lost a shitton. He isn't a mary sue at all.

Was Shirley really that horrible of a character? Did she deserve the hate?
>>
>>141107096
yes.
Nina on the other hand was a great character who had an fufilling conclusion to her character arc.

She was raped and that's why she acts very anxious all the time. manbabys on here don't care about that though.
>>
>>141106877
a.)The recap movie is listed as an OVA for R2. It is logical that one must have watched the main series of any anime that has an OVA before watching that series' OVAs if it has any. OVAs of anime/manga/light novels add to the story, or promotes it. In this case, the R2 recap does both.

b.) We're talking the anime here. Code Geass's source material is the anime since it is completely anime original. All other mediums do not matter, especially since Sunrise only promoted the novels, manga, games, etc. and the staff didn't write any of it themselves. It's only logical that they can't be considered canon unless stated otherwise.

By only making 13 episodes and filling more time by adding in crap or screwing up the premise.

She reminded me of the traditional "girl in love" chara so I was fine with her. Didn't really feel that sad when she died during my first time watching. Cried like a little bitch in every rewatch thereafter.

The first time I watched it I hated her, but then I cried when she died. The next time around I actually came to respect her character. She improves with the second watch, imo.
>>
>>141107458
This question is essentially asking what character progression do we like the best because both characters are dull as shit.

Undoubtedly shirley is the answer. Suzaku in season 1 is the fucking worse. It wasn't until season 2 where he became a badass and his motives felt relatable. Euphie needed to die for Suzaku's sake.
>>
>>141107458
Shirley.

Euphemia at least courted around with danger and her existence has legitimate reasons for people wanting her to die in-universe.
Shirley was just your average girl.

why is this allowed?

examples of said scenarios:

>when Lulu gets captured by Schneizel a second time, but somehow predicts exactly what he's gonna say and makes a recording
there are plenty other situations, but those are the ones that stand out the most as biggest ass-pulls
>>
>>141106897
>Eh, it'll probably end up more like Guilty Crown-tier than Code Geass-tier
It's like neither so far.
>>
>>141107285
It's listed where? Do you mean In MAL? That's not exactly an authoritative or accuracy resource. It only refers to the format, in any case, rather than to its canon status. It's not necessary or required viewing for all Code Geass fans. Especially since the first season also had a similar recap.

Yet that's a transparent hint about possibilities the creators and/or the company don't want the audience to automatically dismiss.
>>
>>141108704
He wasn't though. But it's fishy.
>>
>>141108971
>>when he gets captured by Schneizel after meeting with Suzaku

Not really an asspull. We first saw Guilford get a suspicious call from Orange before the meeting with Suzaku and then he shows up only to find Lelouch instead. That was already telling us something was going to happen. Which, as it turned out, was Lelouch taking a precaution in case the meeting went wrong and could then manipulate Guilford to escape.

>when Lulu gets captured by Schneizel a second time, but somehow predicts exactly what he's gonna say and makes a recording

Except Lelouch was the one driving the whole "conversation" and all he had to assume was that Schneizel would think in a completely opposite way. He already knew enough about the man by then in order to figure out why he'd oppose his intentions. It's a stretch, but this is anime after all. Not reality.
