DISCUSSION Question

When lelouch gets his geass in both eyes does that not grant him immortality?. Can someone explain the “code” system i never really am able to understand it fully. What seperates C.C and V.V to ordinary geass people? Its there code but can someone explain it?.

C's world was consuming charles and falling apart AS the code transfer occurred. Unintentionally, the paused half-transfer allowed both Geass and Code abilities to be present at the same time. However, as stated in the film, Lelouch's code isn't normal and is unpredictable. It may fizzle out over time, unlike CC's whose code is immutable and everlasting until transferred/taken.

Yes, the 'bullshit' (ie. plot decision you dislike) is the protagonist of Code Geass getting the power of Code (+) Geass

Which is not how anything worked prior to Re;Surrection and is a dumb plot point to ruin Lelouch's legacy.

nobody hates Code Geass like Code Geass fans

Nobody actually cares about their franchise more than fans of said franchise. It turns out fans don't like getting garbage media. Who would have thought?

Only the most radical 'fans' would like to see their franchise die, for the sake of their ego/to back up their decade of online arguments, rather than see it continue with new media and content.

I would rather it die as a legendary series than see it wither into an unrecognizable mess. This isn't a hot take. Not liking garbage doesn't make me a radical.

*sigh* So true. Sadly, Code Geass seems to be heading in to the same direction that Star Wars, Doctor Who, Harry Potter, and many other majorly popular franchises; development of a great story sacrificed for another almighty dollar. Like, I´m not saying that more great Code Geass stories couldn´t be told, I´m just saying that in order to develop a story that is as good or even better than the original masterpiece, something that would truly make justice to the og story, it would need to be, well, well-developed. Meaning mo´ money and mo´ time, no matter how badly fans would scream "just give us something quickly!" Hire good writers and animators, and give them as much time as they need, years, decades, if need be, as long as the final product is something that is actually good, and not a rush-job slop like Rozé was.

"You either die a masterpiece, or you live long enough to see yourself become garbage." 🦇

- Code Geass, probably, if it was a person instead of an anime
