    Code Geass: Rozé of the Recapture (TV)



    Plot Summary:
    Seven years ago, the reign of the Britannian Empire came to an end. Yet, that was not the end of war and oppression as many had hoped. Three years later, the disenfranchised remnants of the old empire made one last attempt to seize power, taking over the Japanese island of Hokkaido and isolating it behind an energy barrier. To this day, even the mighty Black Knights have been unable to take it down, leaving the Japanese people trapped within at the mercy of their “Neo-Britannian” overlords. In this dire situation, mercenary brothers Ash and Rozé begin working with the rebel groups within Hokkaido. With Ashe's skill as a pilot and Rozé's tactical genius, there is hope for victory for the first time in years. But little do they suspect that there is far more to Rozé than meets the eye—for not only is his true identity shrouded in mystery, but he also has the power to control men's minds. -ANN

    Up to Ep 3.

    It's alright. Nothing amazing. Not to the level of Human chesspiece that Lelouch plays. It's duo with one doing espionage and one doing all the shooting. I'm mostly watching this to see where the original characters fit in. I do more or less look forward to it.

    So why watch this? Is there any draw for fans of the original anime or is it just a lesser retread?

    See geass powers and Clamp designs.
    Hope for old character cameos.

    C.C.!

    Too bad Lelouch and her pretty much showed up just to say "We're alive, but we won't be doing much so don't count on seeing us around".

    Nina's crying didn't do much for me. I still dislike her, and suddenly crying like that just felt artificial, even if it's bad writing as opposed to bad acting.

    Claudia's still hot.

    If I watched Code Geass S1 and S2, is this the next anime in the franchise or do I need to watch something else before?

    Yeah, this.

    I tried watching the Akito show twice but stopped at around episode 2 or 3 both times I think. Just didn't get the urge to finish it.

    Does that take place directly after S2's end where Lelouch faked his death? Or at least so we're left to believe, iirc.

    It is a direct sequel, but there is a short time skip.

    This episode's fights were really nice to watch. The tension was there. It's been a while since I've seen a mecha fight from Sunrise, though I've skipped a few of their new shows lately. And a Sunrise mecha fight isn't complete without dropping a damn fortress on someone.

    Narah's pretty, and it looks like she'll have a chance of joining our side as well. She reminds me of the old Cornelius.
