The Future of Code Geass | Lelouch of the Resurrection Review

[@Elly3981]

Lelouch is truly an amazing character. So much that he actually overcame his creators' attempt to get rid of him permanently, something that even Eren Jaeger and Light Yagami couldn't do. The only other fictional character I know of like that was Sherlock Holmes. Back in 19th Century England, people actually protested in the streets when Sir Arthur Conan Doyle tried to kill off Holmes by having him fall to his death in a fight with his rival, Professor Moriarty. Later, Doyle rewrote Holmes' death and had him miraculously survive by sticking his cane into the side of a cliff while only Moriarty fell to his death. Now fast forward 100+ years into the future and a guy like Lelouch comes along. Same concept applies: dedicated fans keep their stories going!

[@ryanrodriguez2498]

Indeed now the creators can continue the series with a different timeline that doesn’t ruin the original series. People still think Ressurection is R3 or ruins Code Geass but don’t pay attention to recap films. Can’t wait for future of Code Geass

Eren tried to do a Zero Requiem and Light Yagami is a failed and fallen evil Lelouch.

[@Elly3981]

@@ryanrodriguez2498 Honestly, I don't think the Resurrection movie ruined the original series since it still left a lot of unanswered questions such as the origins of the geass which we only get a brief glimpse of in CC's memories. My guess was that it started from some kind of extraterrestrial cult.

[@TheXTCNinja117]

I loved the movie. I watched it 3 times. The movie is a new timeline. It doesn't negate the ending to R2. It simply creates a new reality where he never really died (Something I believed when R2 ended). So I'm glad they went this route. I'm excited for more CODE GEASS. It is the greatest anime ever created thus far.

[@theredeft5319]

To be honest I think if they were gonna do a new show I would think it would be better to set it far into the future so that it feels like all the sacrifices in the original were worth peace longer than just 1 year. But for what it was I think it was decent. It was fun to see the characters again, see them fight and have an okay and a bit interesting of an opponent for Lelouch to fight. As short lived as it was for Lelouch figuring out to defeat her it was still fun to watch. C’s world was interesting as always. It was good to see Lelouch get to have some good conversations with some people after what happened in the zero requiem like Suzaku and Cornelia. I always thought Lelouch was alive though as it didn’t seem right for him to go back on his contract with C.C. So I’m glad those two ended up going off on a journey at the end. I Agee that Lelouch shouldn’t be the main character anymore. He should be a supporting character. Still I wonder what he and C.C. are doing now with Geass? Giving it out to some people, but also taking down those who misuse it. Sounds interesting. There definitely are still a lot of unfleshed out things leftover in the series they could address though. I’m still on the fence though if I want to see more Code Geass in The future.

[@Elly3981]

To be fair, Lelouch's death would have only bought a decade or so of peace at best before someone started stirring the pot again. I mean, how many smaller wars and conflicts did we have since WWII? Lots. So the sequel actually does make sense when you think about it. As for future spin-offs, Lelouch doesn't always have to play the lead but he should still have an important role since he was the character who made Code Geass as popular as it was. He can definitely be a mentor or guide to future geass users.

[@nerovarana---]

I'm not satisfied with the movie, feels like my 9 years of wait weren't that much fulfilled. But I've rewatched the movie twice, and I could say I'm indeed so happy to see Lelouch back again.

[@ufodeath]

Agreed. There were some things I liked about it and things I disliked. One thing that was jarring about this movie is that certain reunions seem kind of brushed over, undeveloped. The transition between certain sequences leaves the viewer feeling confused, especially towards the second half. It makes one think that they left out scenes which help glue the plot together nicely so that they could keep the movie within two-hours. The ending was decent, I am content with C.C and L.L being drifters together. That's not to say that this movie doesn't set the stage for a spin-off series. Maybe it could be about L.L and C.C trying to keep a low-profile while evading all the danger that comes their way, including geass users on a man-hunt for him for whatever reason.

[@nerovarana---]

Yes, the transition of events are really unsatisfying and confusing for me. At some points, I still have to ask my friend with me (who have watched the movie in advance) to explain some parts of it. The action scenes are not so fulfilling and kind of rushed for me, they wasted so much time just by showing Lelouch regain his memories. But overall, I'm still thanking that this movie came despite the disappointment. I just really want to see Lelouch in action again.

[@ufodeath]

@@nerovarana--- Agree on all counts. Despite the (very) rocky flow of the plot of this movie, at the least they kept Lelouch true to his character... once he finally came back. The other characters seemed alright for the most part, but it was very surprising to me how all the former black knights just so quickly let it slide that former EMPEROR Lelouch was right before their eyes, the figure who from their perspective was a tyrant who almost got them killed and who they did not know was Zero. One would think that the shock of the reveal of Lelouch being Zero this whole time would have been covered in more depth. The plot just skimmed over that and treated it as something that is covered off-screen, which just makes the progression of the plot even more confusing. I hadn't seen the anime for years, so I watched this without any recap of events during the anime. It was also pretty shocking to see Shirley alive after she clearly died in R2, and according to some other comments that was deliberately forced during production.

[@nerovarana---]

There are three movies made which wraps up the whole recreation of R1 and R2. There it was explained how Shirley was alive. And I also agree at the reuniting parts. It's really shallow for me, the impact wasn't there and at some points the reactions of Black Knights' members are absurd. There could've been more force to it, mote emotions and more push to the story.

And yeah he pretty much lose multiple times before victory which would be pretty much almost completely unforeseen in the original series.

[@SomeOne-hw6jw]

I like this movie a lot for Lelouch and C.C's growth (individually and as a "couple"). I enjoyed a lot of the small scenes like when Lelouch tells Ougi to "forget it" when he tries to kill himself or the scene where C.C pulls out a gun on Lelouch just as a few examples. But of course, yeah the movie is way to short and skip a lot of things and dialogues that should happen in the context of the movie... I mean barely anyone react to Lelouch being alive really (among a lot of other things). And the enemy side is completely underdeveloped and not that interesting in general. My theory is that Taniguchi wrote this story as a entire new season.. but then decided (or was forced) to cut it down into a movie.... maybe because he knew the whole story wasn't that great and people could have been bored by it (it would have killed the hype for more content). However, if the next project has a new MC, I think it's not such a bad decision to just have made a quick movie to establish the new world post Evil Britannia and what's going on with L.L and C.C. and all the other characters (the weird situation with Schneizel, Rakshata and those kids has to be a set up for the sequel). There's also the whole business with the C's world and the "geass fragments" that they talk about at the end... smells like something that could be used in the sequel/new project.

[@randomthings8732]

Speaking of new MC I want to maybe see like an accomplice or child of L.L and C.C Might be interesting

[@firstnamelastname489]

Code Geass is HEAVILY carried by Lelousch. One intregral part of what makes Code Geass so good is his ability and humanity as an anti hero. He is not naive or an idiot. He is intelligent and that is a huge reason why he is so charming. He does what needs to get done but he feels human. The little scenes where he throws up after killing Clovis or his caring interactions with Euphemia (before the... incident) or how he seriously shows guilt when he was forced to Geass Nunnuly. He's a really well written character. Making a new MC to fill in his role without feeling underwhelming is really damn hard. Just look at the flop that is Akito the Exile.

[@Zimran03]

I only just watched Code Geass last year because it was on Netflix. I loved it. I didn’t know about the recaps before watching Resurrection, so thing some things were jarring. I thought they had retconned a lot of stuff like Shirley dying. It was nice seeing Lelouch be arrogant and cunning again. I was kind of sad to see that his relationship with Kallen barely got addressed or how Shirley was even alive. So I did some research and I found out about the recap movies. Now I’m just disappointed I will never get a true return to the anime that I was excited for. I don’t even want to watch those recaps now.

[@j3y445]

They could totally have lelouch play a background role in all the next coming movies / series or what ever. I think that lelouch should be at rest because of his sacrifices. Because he is immortal now, maybe he could have some small contribution to world conflicts and also be the one to choose the next Zero after Suzaku inevitably dies. The main character could always be Zero no matter who it is, because the idea of Zero is a very prominent theme to Code Geass. Zero to the people and viewer represents justice while Lelouch represents the evil that once fought for justice, but inevitably lost to Zero. Zero is its own idea seperate to Lelouch in the world. So I can imagine that future movies and series that are further ahead in time(where the current cast is dead), would have a different Zero, and Lelouch is the one who is most likely to choose who that is.

If I had to describe in one word how I felt about this movie Id say it was rushed. Im not entirely against the idea of lelouch being resurrected but I would think if you gonna do it make the most of it. Seemed like the premise alone couldve made multiple movies, not just one. I mean lelouch made it pretty clear this was a one time thing and I do agree that having a new main character would be the better option to continue the series so why not go the extra mile. Overall Im in agreement that it was just okay; I just personally didnt any strong feelings towards it, good or bad. It was serviceable. Not much else I can say.

[@smoyan5806]

I disagree about having a new main character, without lelouch its not code geass. Yeah i also feel that the movie was rushed which is sad

[@Ryukuro]

I think there was plans to make R3, there was a teaser trailer and eveything. With how rushed this movie was, i find it very believeable that this or something close to it was the plan for R3, although there certainly was other things that were going to be included. In fact, i think R3 would have focused more on Suzaku.

[@olixiak6543]

I believe, that Lelouche did not love his sister as much as people may think. He was always telling everyone, that he wants to change the world for her to be happy. But I feel like what gave her all her happiness was actually her caring brother Lelouche, taking care of her, regardless of her disability, loss of her mother and losing the identity of a princess. I didn't see her struggling to find joy in R1, yet Lelouch wanted to battle the whole world, supposedly for her. Because of Lelouches actions, Nunally was kidnapped and almost died. The end of R2 made me shed a tear, but the more I thought about it, the more selfish Lelouche appeared to me. That's because he left his sister alone. He didn't succeed in making the world better in a long run and what's more important, he didn't make the world of Nunnally better by any portion. She became an empress, vulnurable to all kinds of attempts aiming to kidnap, dethrone, or just kill her. In the scene when Lelouche died we saw a girl, who didn't want any big things from life, get robbed of her older brother, whom she loved and needed the most. I was expecting Resurrection fix Lelouches mistake, as Nunnallys brother was alive again, only to witness how Lelouche basically told his sister to fuck off at the end, because he was going to live his life with a green haired immortal chick. In conclusion, I have recently seen a ninja warrior episode, in which a contestant says he participates in the show for his children, which I see as a huge lie. He did it solely for himself, just to fulfil his whims or ambitions. It was just an excuse which he used to make himself look better in his own eyes. That's how I see Code Geass. Lelouche feels unbearable hatred towards his father and when there's a chance to take revenge, he takes it with no hesitation. The whole 'changing the world for his sister' was just an excuse, to make himself look good in his own eyes, like in my example. It's of course only my personal opinion.

[@3pleFly]

I will refer only to the original show. In which lelouch was prepared to die by his own rebellious group after they had discovered who Zero is. And then rolo saved lelouch and his sacrifice is part of what inspired lelouchs next moves. In fact at some point lelouch was sure that Nunally is dead. So he continued his work. By the time he learns Nunnally is alive he is too deep and has no choice but to fake as an enemy to her. This is what makes Nunnlys disocvery of everything so tragic, she only wanted her brother to be with her, and life made him give so so much more. Wonderful story that really shows how much life and fate.

I'm glad they've still left the original ending up to interpretation as this movie continues on the recaps as an alternate universe and I love Code Geass so I just want more in the end, and I'm happy that they won't make it the Lelouch show. I think they've already done this well with the Akito the Exiled movies in terms of expanding the world without relying too heavily on the pre-established characters, so I'm hopeful for this Code Geass 10 year plan.

[@ufodeath]

My biggest complaint with the movie is that the plot was executed pretty awkwardly... such that it could be pretty jarring and confusing at times. I feel like certain scenes transitioned where there should have been a scene where plans were being made, especially towards the second half as Lelouch kept losing to the other Geass user.

I love this movie, because it gives me a closure to Lelouche‘s story and see all the characters again. A happy ending. But, it is flawed in many ways. One of the principles of good writing is show and don‘t tell. Like the deduction of the Geass, it was quite unsatisfying, because they don‘t show his train of thought, but just say stuff like „there are 22 possibilities“, next scene it‘s 17 without explanaition. Also, his return is accepted too fast and except for Suzaku. They could have fleshed out this part, because this is what the audience is invested in. These characters have history, but it is not thoroughly explored.

I agree that the ending was perfect, i prefer lelouch to be dead than to be alive. But if he was dead then what about fulfilling cc's wish? He promised her, also it wouldn't make any sense if he just abandons cc after all they've been through, but if he was alive then it wouldn't make any sense to create an alternative timeline and make a sequel where he's alive. If he really was alive then they should have made a season 3 R3 instead of an alternative timeline. In the trailer of the "new series" (which was supposed to be a sequel to R2 but was canceled) you can see a short clip of lelouch, and from that i think its safe to assume that lelouch was alive at the end of R2. But since the new series got canceled and they made an alternative timeline where he was alive they made it look like he was dead in R2 while they originally intended to for him to be alive and make a sequel. If they changed him from being alive in R2 to him being dead then it wouldn't make sense cuz i don't think he'd just abandon cc and not fulfill her wish, but if he was alive it wouldn't make any sense to create an alternative timeline where he's alive.

The reason why they where a problem for the cast was that for political reasons they couldn't actually use the armies of the UN and Black Knights openly, so they were forced to use just basically two units of special forces that had enough independence to offer deniability to the upper ups - and they still managed to paralyse and conquer the country. That a younger but male descendent becomes the king rather then their older female siblings are completely in tune with historical precedent too, and Shamna being the high priestess of the local religion explains the amounts of soft power she holds - so no real contradiction here either. The only thing I can fault the movie on is to never really explain Lelouche's and Shamna's Code status - I had to check on the wikia that their Code is called "Failed One" and that they basically have eternal youth but can still die and are subject to other Geass powers, for which they get to keep their Geass power.

I thought it was fine that C.C. never really explained what was going on with Lelouch since she seemingly didn't know precisely, but I feel like old Code Geass would have found a way to communicate the new Code variant to us.

I just enjoyed seeing how everyone was doing and their reactions to seeing Lelouch and the aftermath. Though I believe Lelouch should have been more emotional when reuniting with everyone

We did kinda get shortchanged on getting those reactions to Lelouch, because it was a movie instead of the sequel season it was originally planned to be.

@@KatoBeyond if they were to make a S3 would it carry on from the movie? Honestly the ending of S2 was the best but I prefer the movie alternate reality even though Shirly is alive, although I dont mind her being alive, it doesnt make sense anymore why Lelouch massacred the people at the Geass Lab

[@KatoBeyond]

@@benenaidoo2132 Good point, that only happened because of Shirley's death. I didn't see the second recap movie, so maybe there would be more Geass users running around in that universe. They definitely won't make R3 at this point, sadly.

I do hope that if they continue a season branching off the movie that they choose to give Lulu the backseat. I am expecting something like him making a contract with someone now that he is technically a code, thus birthing a new MC.

[@margaritas354]

okay, my opinion is gonna be unpopular here, but I would be happy if they created the full 3rd season from this movie. I understand why people want to stop after R2 ending - it's tragic and beautiful, and we all were crying because Nanally realized what Lelouch really had done. But also I'm so happy to see the characters` reunion, to see how Suzaku tried to beat Lelouch because he was alive, how Karen looked at him. I think if this story was much longer (like a 25 series season) the story would have been more detailed and R1/R2-styled. Now fans have a lot of questions because the film is too short and couldn`t fulfill everything creators wanted to say to us. Nevertheless, I`m amazingly glad to see Lelouch alive again.

[@Elly3981]

I know there are those who claim the Code Geass movies are cheap cash grabs but let's be honest here. Even if Lelouch stayed dead, his death would buy only a decade or so of peace before someone started stirring the pot again, as you can see in Lelouch of the Resurrection movie. Fighting is just human nature and have been going on since the first caveman threw a stone. Ironically, it was Lelouch's parents who sought a world without conflict but their plan was also a bad idea. With his geass and brilliant mind, Lelouch would be more useful alive in maintaining the peace he achieved with his Zero Requiem, even if he has to watch over the world from the shadows. As long as everyone believed he was dead, his goal was achieved all the same. No one has to know other than his closes friends and allies. So IMO, this movie as well as the compilation movies before it was actually a good idea.

[@antavarice]

So umm... why the f was shirley back alive?? 😅😅😅

[@KatoBeyond]

R3 is not a sequel to the original series. They retconned Shirley's death in the second Code Geass recap movie, which R3 is a sequel to.

[@mrkaji8913]

You should watch the dub for the movie on AnimeLab and 9 anime

[@colinmasterson666]

I see the anime and the movie continuities as two separate universes that way Lelouch’s big sacrifice at the end of R2 isn’t ruined and still a conclusive ending while the movies give fans what they wanted with out ruining the original story told in the anime. P.s. specking of different. The Code Geass Manga (yes there is an official one not just the hentai floating around the web) while absent of the mech battles as far as I know(I dropped it after a few chapters because finals where right around the corner and I never got back around to reading it again) it’s still a good read despite the differences. I’m just surprised not many people are talking about it honestly.

[@kaitouboy6808]

it is alternative ending

[@vipert50c77]

Did I watch the same movie as everyone else? To me it felt like a rushed mess that should have had at least 3 more hours of run time. I like the end with CC and Lelouch and am not opposed to sequels but I feel the original was quite literally perfect storytelling. I gotta say, this ain't it chief (at least for me).

[@chevalierdunord3732]

Agreed. There were good moments like Suzaku beating the shit out of Lelouch or CC holding a gun to his head, but why did they even retcon Shirley's death just to have one line and not be a relevant love interest? From the original series I believe they would have wound up together if not for her death. Changing things like that has a domino effect on character motivations
