A simple but really heartbreaking scene (better than the movie) of Kallen crying over Lelouch after watching him perish during Zero Requiem. One can argue Lelouch, despite being catatonic, deep down thinks Kallen is familiar and is trying to remember who she was to him.

Finished watching Code Geass for the first time yesterday (took zero spoilers so thoroughly enjoyed the show).

Shirley's death was one of the most hard-hitting moments in the show for me. Still feels sad thinking about it.

Lelouch killed her father and she wanted to hate him for it, but she still kept loving him.

She shoots Villetta gravely harming her (goes so against her character). She did it to keep Lelouch safe as her love for him overwhelms other emotions of her.

She then wanted to die with him to have both of them atone for their sins.

Lelouch erases her memories to ease her from the burden of her sins, and to keep her away from this mess.

Then the scene of them talking about the ones they lost (while that beautiful OST plays in the background). Lelouch describes what Shirley was for him, to Shirley who has lost her memories of him. Lelouch thanks her for everything she has done for him. He prepares himself to move over her.

She naturally falls in love with him all over again even after losing her original memories.

She finds the truth of him manipulating her memories, all that trauma hits her again causing severe confusion and pain to her.

She feels some ease after seeing Lelouch jumping down the roof risking his life, all to save her from dying.

She talks to Rolo and finds her mind at ease knowing Rolo is on Lelouch's side.

She gets gravely wounded as she was chasing after Lelouch to confront him about the truth and to protect him.

She still keeps loving him even after all this while coming to her tragic end.

No matter what he does, no matter the sin he commits, she will forgive him in the end.

No matter how many times she is reborn, she will keep falling in love with Lelouch.

She wanted to be someone who is truthful to him in his lonely world of lies. Someone he can find himself at ease with, someone from whom he doesn't have to hide things from, all to ease his sufferings.

The OST playing in the background. Crying Lelouch repeatedly commands her, begs her to not die. She dies in his arms confessing the true depth of her love to him and then that painful scream from Lelouch 😢.

Finally the beautiful ending song plays where we see the art of her happily ascending to heaven in a beautiful white dress, as she happily died in the arms of the person she unconditonally loved, while confessing that love of hers to him.

Lelouch lost someone who loved him unconditionally. One of the very few people who embraced his human side so much. All due to his lies, manipulation & his power of Geass.

Her death led him to assault the Geass Directorate to end the curse of Geass.

One of the most well done emoitonal scenes I have ever seen 👏.

They take a tour around a recent mass murder site like they’re on vacation, badmouth several grieving people after they call them out on it, and then get mad when one such person doesn’t fucking MURDER them all over a CAMERA. Obviously most of the Britannians are racist pieces of shit, but these two took it to a whole other level. Thank God Euphemia literally slapped them into submission.

Sorry…Reddit always kills my quality

An idea I came up with at 1 am and decided to make today.

I finished the original show and I only threw resurrection in there as a bonus, I know most people in this community probably want code geass to escape lelouch's shadow and focus less on him, i understand that, I do think him staying dead was preferable in the original show but since it is the 20th aniversary pretty much, what ideas would you do for a show if lelouch still had to be a factor

And a sub note/question, do we think star chaser will be good???

biggest slap in the face ever

rip [Knight of Eleven] Kallen you deserve so much better

I have wanted to watch Code Geass for years and finally got around to it. Then I got to episode 22. The Euphemia situation has made me so sad that I almost want to quit watching. Should I go on?

Hey, hope this is allowed here! I'm going to this exhibition in Japan soon, and I'm already going to be picking up merchandise as it is, so I wanted to check if anyone here would be interested aswell! If so, let me know, and I can provide all of the merchandise pictures, prices, and ordering details! I also have 200+ sales proofs if needed!

Where he rageful brutally beats the vicious, vile, and despicable son of a corrupt nobleman for, the kidnapping, the sexual assault and rape of a poor little girl.

SINoALICE was a dark fantasy mobile role-playing game released 2017 in Japan (and 2020 globally) and directed by Yoko Taro, the acclaimed creator of the NieR series. The game featured a twisted, dark reimagining of classic fairy tale characters (such as Snow White, Cinderella, and Red Riding Hood) who were trapped in a mysterious world called "The Library" and had to slaughter each other to revive their respective authors so they could grant their ultimate wishes.

While most anime collaborations in mobile games feature "isekai" stories where characters are transported to another world and just want to find their way back to their home dimension, the 2021 SINoALICE x Code Geass collaboration event, titled "A Knight's Resolve," brought a darker, more psychological twist to the anime's universe by trapping the Code Geass cast inside the traumatic memory centered around one of the anime's most tragic and pivotal turning points: the "Bloody Euphie" incident, during witch princess Euphemia was accidentally forced by Lelouch’s out-of-control Geass to slaughter the Japanese citizens. When the Code Geass cast was pulled into The Library they found themselves trapped in a distorted loop of that traumatic memory, forced to fight mutated, monstrous manifestations of their own guilt, lacing the tragedy with psychological horror.

Instead of traditional armor, in the game a player's strength was determined by their "Grid,” a collection of up to 20 weapons (Swords, Bows, Staves, Tomes, etc.) that they collected and upgraded through a gacha system. Players brought one main character into battle and tapped various Grids from their deck to attack enemies, heal allies, or buff the team. Characters had different classes (like Breaker, Gunner, Cleric, or Minstrel) that shifted their weapon proficiency and stats, often unlocked by pulling specific weapons from the gacha. In SINoALICE lore, Kallen´s class, the Crusher, is inherently tied to the sin of Violence and characters who let their rage consume them, represented by Little Red Riding Hood in the game. Assigning Kallen to this specific class was a deliberate nod to her fierce, hot-headed combat style in the anime, where she routinely overpowers enemies through sheer, aggressive force with her signature mecha, the Guren.

Because SINoALICE focuses on infantry-style fantasy combat rather than giant mecha warfare, Kallen could not pilot her iconic Guren Mk-II during the crossover event. Instead, she became the frontline muscle of the Black Knights, adapting her fierce protective instincts into direct melee combat. Her character text and inner monologues during the event highlighted her identity as a warrior who carries the burdens and memories of those she fights to protect.

In standard Code Geass promotional games, characters usually wear their iconic school uniforms or Black Knight attire. For this event, however, Yoko Taro personally oversaw a complete fantasy redesing for the Code Geass anime cast. The characters wore highly detailed, Gothic/steampunk-inspired armor that seamlessly blended their original styles with SINoALICE’s dark fairy-tale aesthetic, and Kallen was no exception; as we see in this promotional art for the collaboration event, where she´s wearing her Crusher class outfit that seamlessly blends traditional Japanese garments with a stylized, action-ready design. She wears a modified, bright red kimono with rose-like floral patterns in its extremely long sleeves and a prominent, oversized bright yellow ribbon, which is tied around her waist with long, pale yellow sash fabric extending downward from the knot, detailed with th Black Knight´s symbol. On her feet, she wears traditional white split-toe tabi socks paired with wooden geta sandals, and her signature spiky red hair is adorned with a large, golden-yellow flower hairpiece pinned to the right side of her head, accompanied by smaller black flower. On her right hand, she wears her signature weapon in the game: the Radiation Wave Gauntlet.

Because SINoALICE does not feature Knightmare Frames, the developers had to figure out how to give Kallen her mecha´s iconic weapon without her actually piloting the Guren. They solved this by turning the Guren Mk-II’s silver-and-red claw arm, Radiant Wave Surger, into a massive, heavy gauntlet that Kallen wore directly on her arm to smash enemies face-to-face. Additionally, every weapon in SINoALICE features a short, evolving story that unlocks as you upgrade it. The flavor text for Kallen's Claw reflected her internal struggle that comes with her living behind the mask of her false Stadtfeld persona, as well as the burdens of being a freedom fighter, emphasizing the dark realization that even if she survives the war after achieving her goal to free Japan, afterwards there´s no need for warriors like her in the world of peace.

Sadly, Kallen is no longer playable character in the game, and that´s not just because she was only obtainable during that collaboration event; the global version of the game officially shut down its servers on November 15, 2023, and the original Japanese version shut down shortly after on January 15, 2024. True to Yoko Taro’s signature storytelling style, the game concluded with a final story chapter that permanently forced players to log out and delete their save data upon completion, mirroring the thematic endings of the NieR games. However, in February 23, 2024 an alternate animated film ending for the story, called SINoALICE: The Very Last Story, was released in theaters. The film was made as a celebratory send-off and thank-you gift to the community following the mobile game's end of service.

I think we can all agree Lelouch will again, he's the #1 rated character on MAL for a reason.

All hail Lelouch!

After seing the last movie of Gundam, i wonder how Code Geass they could received as well the idea of retelling of the story wih the addition of a new character designs or a new expanded story using a similar direction of what they do in the films.

Besides many of the themes are very similar of they handled rebel groups against of a common enemy (Federation/ Brittania), in the case of the battle scenes with the 3CDGI i believe they could get a solid direction if maybe Shuko Murase could handled a Code Geass series or either movie, after all he did well on the last movie.
