Code Geas: A Must Watch

Sep 04

Code Geas is one epic epic anime. Masterfully written and beautifully animated it is quite a shame that I only took notice of it lately. Code Geas will leave you wanting for more with its twists and turns plus the engaging persona of Lelouch of the Rebellion.

If you have not seen this mecha anime, then go get a copy now. The original Japanese voicing is excellent so just watch the one with subtitles instead of the English version! Nyahahahaha!

Now when watching Code Geas season 1, you may think that it lacks action and substance in the first few episodes but just stick with it because things will surely pick up quickly as you get to episode 11 and above! Now Code Geas R2 is a different story because it will surely hook you with the story from the get go.

As for mecha freaks out there, the mecha designs are a bit dry for my taste, but this is only second fiddle to the actual premise of the story so it is a non issue.

So for those still looking for a mecha anime with an excellent storyline, Code Geas is the one for you! Woot!
