SynopsisThe Empire of Britannia has invaded Japan using giant robot weapons called Knightmare Frames. Japan is now referred to as Area 11, and its people the 11's. A Britannian who was living in Japan at the time, Lelouch, vowed to his Japanese friend Suzaku that he'd destroy Britannia. Years later, Lelouch is in high school, but regularly skips out of school to go play chess and gamble on himself. One day, he stumbles on terrorists 11's who've stolen a military secret and is caught by a member of the Britannian task force sent after them, who is Suzaku. As the rest of the squad arrives, Suzaku is shot for disobeying orders, while the military secret, a young girl, gives Lelouch the power of Geass, which makes anyone obey any order. While Suzaku is secretly made the pilot of Britannia's brand new prototype Knightmare, Lancelot, Lelouch becomes the masked Zero to lead the rebellion to destroy Britannia once and for all.

ReviewCode Geass is a great anime full of unexpected twists and cliffhangers that'll always leave you wanting more. Both Lelouch and Suzaku wish for the same thing, that is peace, freedom and equality to be returned to the people of Japan but both take different stances on how to attain that with Lelouch walking down the path of destruction and Suzaku taking a less direct approch by changing the ways of Brittania from the inside. In the end it leaves you with a split decision on who you feel has the best view of the situation and is most determined to reach there goal but the question of weather things will be changed for the better still remains.
