UPDATE 2: Release Date and Trailer! (Click To Go to the Story)

UPDATE: More Details on this, as well as a new Code Geass Movie featuring Lelouch have been realease! (Click To Go to the Story)

Fans itching for some more Geass will be pleased to hear that Masayuki Ozaki, the General Manager of Overseas Development at Animation Studio Sunrise confirmed that the studio is “looking forward to releasing” the new Code Geass anime project next year!

Code Geass fans looking for more Lelouch will be disappointed, however, as Ozaki went on to say that the project will take place:

in the same world as Lelouch [the protagonist of the earlier Code Geass anime] except with different characters (…) the stage is set in Europe, so we’ll see a lot of European countries.

Beyond that bombshell of a story tidbit, we’ve also gotten word on who the director will be: Kazuki Akane ( of The Vision of Escaflowne, Noein – to your other self).

So Code Geass will continue on without both Taniguchi and Lelouch? Seems like Kazuki-san has some big shoes to fill. Personally, I loved Noein and Escaflowne, and I’m curious to see what Kazuki-san will bring to the franchise. What about everyone else? What do you think about this rather explosive bit of Anime news? Leave your comments!

• yuuki

  i wana see lulu again please let lulu be in this series i can do anything 4 u but please bring lulu and sherly back

  • Setsuken

    It would be nice if we saw Lelouch again. Given its a different director and a different setting, that seems very unlikely. =/

    • animefreak

      umm hes died i dont think so

      • Brandon

        Lelouch is not dead at the end of season 2 hes the one driving the carriage bringing c.c

        • Mattshults3

          lelouch isent dead i thought he died at the end?

        • Kmo_9000

          He got the ‘Code’ for immortality from his father when he killed him. Hence why he had the Geass symbol in both eyes at the end. So he is immortal, just like CC.

        • hunter

          your right he is immortal but can steel use geass

        • Eduardo10143

          but why can he use geass i mean i hope he is alive, but i dont think that he is immortal maybe it was that ninga girl or he used his geass on someone to think he was him and disguised him like the ninga girl

        • Tygarn

          Lelouch needs to die to activate the immortality power like when his father died once to become an immortal. When Lelouch killed his father he gained the immortallity from the father however it is not activated yet and that is why he was able to use the geass.

        • Dave

          my theory has always been that the reason everyone lost there geass once they became immortal was simply because they got their code from the person who gave them their geass, but because Lelouch got his power from C.C. and got his code from his father, he was still to use his geass, but your theory is also very likely, i like it

        • Johntg3123421

          i must say this, hope it doesn’t crush any of your guys hope… I am a true Code Geass fan, Lulu’s top fan! But this is how it works… His Father Charlie was absorbed, not killed by Lelouch, and the other key part is, only the contractor which Charlie had, could kill him. But at the last end, who was C2 talk to? But stabbing someone, it doesn’t mean Lelouch died! They might have resurrect him, it is sincerely possible. I have no doubt that Lelouch is alive, but having taken the Code from his father is impossible by all means. There is 1 key point you must rememebr, C.C can’t have Lelouch dead, I Believe in my heart Lelouch is still there, just watching, the progress in the world, with C.C, maybe happily living, well i have that thought!

        • Nicolynn

          For a moment i agreed with this but… well I’m gonna add on to it. I just rewatched the episode and I agree Lelouch got the second marking in his eye b/c he extended his powers by using his geass on God (not b/c he became immortal). BUT b/c I just watched it, you’ll see he used his extra powerful geass on his parents to get rid of them, quicker. Near the end of episode 21 you’ll even hear the sound of him using his geass… While Charles was choking him, he said “Be Gone” and we see their absorption speed up meaning, as the other person said, Lelouch probably Did kill them.

          After watching the last episode, I’d first thought somehow that Lelouch entered C2′s mind and was living in there but that’s not possible considering only his mother’s geass allowed Her to do something similar to that (being able to communicate with C2 while in another person’s mind + at his “death” we don’t see him using his geass at the last minute). So i’m left to believe his death unlocked his ability to become immortal (as someone else stated) and though I DESperately need Lelouch in Code Geass, it’s quite unnecessary; he did what he had to do and survived (which i’m ecstatic about so)… the story kinda ends there.

          Season 4, however NEEDS Lelouch. I can go this season without him but he BEtter return :/

        • iceknight

          How do you know? i really want to know.

        • Mr Amazin

          There is no proof to your statement. He received Geass in both eyes because he used it a lot. C.C told him this earlier in the anime so please if you have proof that he’s alive I would love to hear it and don’t say because he killed his father.

        • Fate Leung

          Hi mister, several theories to why people think lulu is still alive:
          Just like V2, and C2 (Japanese version) C2=CC, the second season is called R2… possibly hinting at a creation of a second immortal, besides R = rebellion. It is possible that lulu becomes R2 after becoming immortal.
          You are right, C2 did tell lulu that the more he uses his Geass the more powerful it will become, hence the both eyes thing… She also said, you need a strong Geass user to be able to transfer immortality, which lulu has reached. I think C2 gave it to him… she still had the mark on her forehead to transfer lulu’s mother into the collective memories… the mark is indicative that she still has her “immortal powers”. Furthermore at the end, C2 says “the price you have to pay for using your geass on others is a heavy one”… this can hint at the fact that lulu is paying with his life, or the fact that C2 transferred immortality to lulu and she knows how much it sucks to live for eternity. Furthermore, when lulu “died” at the end, his sister who touched him was able to see scenes in his life, which was something C2 was able to do when she had immortal powers (transfer memory via touch). As well, the ending where C2 is talking, she either is looking up at the sky, or she is talking to the carriage driver, whom people suspect is lulu.

          Anyway, I personally like to think lulu is still not dead… there are too many hints that he hasn’t died for him to be dead.

        • RyoZIN

          “Furthermore, when lulu “died” at the end, his sister who touched him was able to see scenes in his life, which was something C2 was able to do when she had immortal powers (transfer memory via touch).”

          Nunnally could do this regardless. She could read peoples feeling by touching them. If you watch season 1 I think episode 6 when CC shows up at Lelouch’s place he is hesitant to let her touch his hand. This theory is false going by this. Though at the same time she could have just been able to read feelings and then the theory would be correct. I’d have to watch Code Geass again to further understand her ability.

        • De1jigga

          :O i just read all the posts as far as the plot goes lelouch is dead for ppl saying he got both geass in his eyes are retarded cause we all know he got it from using geass to much so it grew stronger and he never absorbed the power from his father he killed him and his mouth he took that direct blow from the sword and died from what i understand this new plot new main character and a mysterious main look like lelouch and as for the ending c2 was known talking known for talking outloud like she was supposely talking to his mom in season one so stop having brain farts and accept he’s dead or if season 3 hes alive thru miracle means its like the naruto all over again before they revealed everybody was certain he was the 4th hokage cause of his image i know suzaku will be making a appreance , also lelouch doesnt have immortality he never received cant just activate immortality immortatlity is already active once its obtained you guys are clueless making up false information sooo please shuuush

        • unknowndude

          but nunnally is able to tell if someone is lying, hence why suzaku never touched her hand afterwards, then there was that lady who helped her run area 11, and lelouch never had actual contact with nunally until he died,probably on purpose too

        • Im Right

          C2 is talking to him at the end about his contract and she ends her sentence by saying and i qoute….”Right Lelouche” ?

        • RN1110

          it has to be lelouch C.C can’t talk about geass to anybody

        • correct

          all those clues mentioned above were leading to the deleted scene form the original japanese version released on DVD, where lelouch is shown smiling as the guy driving the carriage after C.C talks to him.
          it was deleted, so that fans could figure it out themselves and decide what they wanted to be the ending.

        • Julzni23

          yeah , LElouch is not dead…

        • Otakualex

          Dude don’t make assumptions he’s not the one driving the carriage I think he’s under the haystack which is being carried by the carried but still dead under it

        • jeff

          hes not dead in the real ending which was cut off hes the one driving the carriage

        • http://www.facebook.com/galil.tiu Galil Tiu

          yeah….

        • Zar

          No did you even watch it -.- LeLouch ordered Suzaku to kill him in the identity of Zero to bring peace to Japan -.-” The unusual thing is that LeLouch was supposed to be killed at the end of R1 too…..

      • sebastian michaelis

        lelouch is not dead

      • Wortigon

        as I see, C.C. didn’t had her code while she was on that hay sac, or did her hair cover that simbol on her head? I hadn’t saw it
        so if Lelouch is still alive, maybe he could become Zero again, and than: Nanaly and the 2 Zeros would rule eweryting and here’s the happy end, until the new boss (season 3 boss) appears, and maybe Lelouch will marry C.C., or Kallen… probably C.C.

      • Toooldtowatchbutlovetoo

        Lelouch is not dead. He had C2 take his place using the mask since she cannot die. He was elsewhere hiding and watching the whole thing. IF CG3 is in Europe their is little chance we will see Lelouch. Also , is Season 3 taking place after Season 2′s timeline? If so , who are the Britannian’s fighting?? With Britannia now part of the USF is it the EU ? and why would they fight ? Having Lelouch little sister in control of the USF she would not want more death’s and therefore I cannot see a war. Unless they are fighting the remaining aristocrats and their White Knights. Season 3 should prove interesting story line , but I am sorry .. I for one would love to see Lelouch again .. but he will not be back for Season 3. I can see season 4 perhaps … but definetly not season 3.

    • TheAnimeloversan

      Dude, its not code geass without Lulu and everyone else though!!!

  • elaine

    please bring lulu back. i cant amagen this show without him. ill do anything please just bring him back.

  • Skyregalia

    Shirley died though…so they should bring her back with the power of Geass!

    • unkowndude

      you know how long shes been buried though

    • http://www.facebook.com/galil.tiu Galil Tiu

      yeah right…….it would be great if it happens………I love Lelou and Shirley……

  • z axcis

    the new character looks cool though

• Gekokujou

  I’m actually liking this development as I’m curious about what went down in the Europe.

  • Setsuken

    Its unclear as to whether this is before or after the events of R2. All signs point to it being before Britania was taken down by Lelouch, but we’ll have to wait and see I gguess XD

  • Guest

    Yep, but it would definitively be better if lulu was there… what about the adventures of lelouch in europe ?

    • Shmalt Ackie

      I just finished both season . Can’t take my eyes of the screen even for a sec . Hoping season 3 may include new adventure of Lelouch and other characters . Wondering what will happen if the entire world knew his return as immortal ?

• cheeko

  want 2 see lelouch-vi-britannia …………back on the series
  no 1 can take his place

  • Setsuken

    Agreed! Lelouch IS Geass. I wish Sunrise would realize that XD

• Bigasdong

  I want to see Lelouch back outsmarting another villian!

  • Setsuken

    Aye! I wouldn’t even mind a remake or alternate retelling of the series. I’d take that over a continuation without Lelouch XD

• Ryu

  Finally season 3 soon bin waiting for ever… still it sucks not having Lelouch back i realy wanted him back

  • Setsuken

    Yeah, unfortunately it seems Sunrise wants to create a franchise out of Geass, the same way they did Mai Hime/Otome and Gundam. XD

• http://lostnlazy.wordpress.com/ baka~

  so this is either a season 3 continuation or a spiritual successor of Code Geass. Personally, i’d rather think of this as a spiritual successor if they’re gonna start off with a new protagonist inheriting the power of geass…

  • Setsuken

    I’d call it more of another story in the same universe, and that’s what Sunrise is touting it as, as well. I think its just their attempt to cash in on one of their properties.

    If this new hero thing works, I won’t be surprised if we see a few more down the line, in the same vein as Gundam and Mai Hime/Otome.

    • http://lostnlazy.wordpress.com/ baka~

      Well, they did establish the power of Geass vaguely so it can branch off to many more protagonists wielding such power. If they set Code Geass to tread a similar path with the Gundam franchise, would CC become the recurring character much like… Haro O_o??

• John

  will it be about lulu’s mom and dad

  • Setsuken

    Unfortunately I think its going to be about a different set of characters entirely, in Europe as opposed to Area 11, Japan, where the first two seasons took place

• http://JSMITHMIM@GMAIL.COM ABDUL MUHAIMIN

  I WANT LULU.IF NOT NO NEED OF 3RD SEASON!

  • Setsuken

    Haha, While I definitely agree with the sentiment, I’m curious to see what Kazuki-san can do as a director for a Code Geass series.

    • Saal

      same here…. i highly doubt it will go as they seem to think especially if it’s going to be in the same time period as the original….. i mean that would make it worse since lelouch IS alive and doing his zero thing at the same time but they wanna switch the whole character base completely? …. don’t see that working at all lol i think people have gotten way to attached to the current characters … lulu, c.c., kallen and what not…. i could only see the new character cast working if they made it in a completely different time period (like way after R1 and R2 or like way before the main storyline). if they don’t then i think it would aggravate people watching it who know lulu and crew are over in japan kicking ass but we gotta get accustomed to some other group over in europe………. sounds like a no go to me……….

• spartain117687

  lelouch was bad a. man

  • Setsuken

    Agreed, Totally B.A! =D

• http://wowomg.com me

  FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK NO LELOUCH = no GEASS

  • Sabari

    I want LULU back ……

• Kaede Itsuki

  What..? I AT LEAST expected it to be Shikkoku no Renya…

• RikaChan

  Code Geass isn’t Code Geass without Lelouch! He needs to be there(so he can get wit C.C.)! CG is my passion and of coarse I’m excited for another season…but it just wont feel right. I’ve seen Lelouch as the main character for 2 seasons and I’m used to it. He’s like the reason I fell in love with CG!(sexy bastard) I hope they put in at least reference of him or SOMETHING!!!

• http://www.laddus.tk prince shihab

  code geass sesson 2 last episode when we see C.C is leaving on a van or something like dat, we didnt see the face of the driver ever tho he looked like some how as luluch….. so guys i think luluch will be in 3rd seasson cuz he is not dead yet./…. :p

  • Sweety8587

    From what I’ve heard, CG3 is actually gonna be PRE-series rather than continue with where we left off. Guess the question of whether Lelouch is alive or not is gonna stay up in the air :

  • Anonymous

    though i would like to agree that lulu is alive and well C.C seemed to have a sarcastic since to her so i really dout that lulu is alive even if that is what i want.

    • Senrev91

      Of corse he’s alive believe it and code geas always
      Circled around c2 and sense v2 is dead that
      Can only leave fact that lulu is alive because c2
      And lulu are together

    • Kiary44

      I guess i have to agree with you!!!!hehe

• COMWinbigles

  Anyone catch that C.C. was just chilling in what looked like the a European country side at the end of R2? And how she was “talking” to Lelouch…. There ya go, a good chance of at least a small cameo of Lelouch in the new instalment of the series.

• Anonymous

  Still, even though she looked up and said ‘Lelouch’ it doesn’t necessarily mean his alive, she could just be talking to the heavens or something… anyway since i’ve read about some details about R3 i doubt they going to put Lelouch back on stage. Although i personally love each and every one of the characters, even the annoying Nina LMFAOOO. But yeah, just to let you guys know if R3 ruins R1 AND R2, I’D RATHER NOT HAVE IT!!!

• mohamed osama

  we want Lelouch back i want the same characters plz make code geass again plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

• bk201 , light yagami ,lelouch , sawada stunayoshi , kema katsuragy

  ok so code geass is the best anime the world could ever get i am good at doing those sorts of classment
  and lelouch is a lot stronger then light yagami
  ok i am begging dont stop it now and put a total other story i even thought of a senario for a season 3 where lelouch is in it whit every one of the second seasons end .
  i wanted to know if you the email adress or anything where i could send a message to the person thats gonna continue the serie i think right now i have watched season 2 an1 more then 30 times and always i crie at the ending just thinking of it that every one saw him die thinking he was a monster althought he saved the world from wars i can wait as long as they want but i beg pls make a season 3 whit lelouch and every one ill send the senario that i have made up after your resspons i am not shure if its good or not but maybe youll judge it and pls pls pls pls pls pls help me trying to get a 3rd season so that every one is happy

• bk201 , light yagami ,lelouch , sawada stunayoshi , kema katsuragy

  i know that the hope of them accepting my senarion is not even 2% valuable but its still worth trying dont you think so anyway if they dont continue it one day if i can lunch a progect like that ill do it and do a season 3 promiss

  • bk201 , light yagami ,lelouch , sawada stunayoshi , kema katsuragy

    sory i meant senario

• Pr3d4t0r

  It maybe just a foolish thought but we can see in the ending of R2 that C.C is a country that i would describe either as french or netherlands, basing on that and on directors comment, I think we can expect C.C to be in third season cant wait

• syed ubaid

  eh! code geass season 3!
  its acceptable with out lulu for one simple reason, r2 ended perfectly there is nothing left for it to continue and if season 3 would have lulu and related cast then it would be a disaster…
  but since its still about geass then it might be good… my only concern is with the director as i didnt like noein at all….

  • Sweety8587

    Well I reckon there’d be folks out there who’d argue at the perfect ending but I for one would say that yeah it ended in a good way in the sense that most of the lose ends got tied up and it was a pretty good end all things considered. And I for one agree that bringin Lelouch and the cast back would be….over kill really.

    I’d love to see them exploring the origins of Geass more. THAT’d be wicked kool in my books! We can only keep our fingers crossed in regards with the director Nothing like a bad director to screw up a perfectly good story >_<

• schneizel15

  but did lelouch really trust suzaku kururugi? wasnt he betrayed (thats what he think)?
  and also maybe it was just someone else that is on a mask that looked like lulu maybe it was sayoko? that was killed ,,, hehehe anyways im looking forward to the next season but i do hope that lelouch wud be there….

  maybe lulu is also an immortal? and he really is the one on the cart…..

  how about a new character(same characteristic like the old lelouch except that he was more gentle) that really looked like lelouch and will also go to ashford as a transferee, and end up with karen? with the power of geass, how did he get it well how about she met C.C and C.C thought that he was lulu and she give him geass…and bla bla

• patrick n

  what the h*ll there is no Lelouch

• patrick n

  i’m so pissed it is like one peace without mounkey d

• King Anime

  When Code Geass first came out i was like wtf is this but after watch the first 3 episode i was in love with this anime and it was because of the main actor and hes life Lelouch now u telling me ur taking he off S3 was you high when you was thinking this or just acting dum Lelouch is CODE GEASS you can not make a S3 with out the main actor die! after watching the last episode i cry like a girl I’m a male age 16 and i cry like when my mom told me my dad die in Haiti I love C-G but with out Lelouch and hes problems he need to solve and make better and what about hes love life 2 anyways you should not call it C-G s3 with out Lelouch its just not right i will always be a big fan of C-G and may be my Fav anime still i die.

  LONG LIVE Lelouch!

  • fan

    as i commented there are quite a few ways in witch they can bring him back if they so wish without ruining the image of it how ever to my regret because of the diffrent person in chrage some one mentioned and the bit about s3 it sounds like although it is a possibility for the future that they wont bring him back long live lalouch

  • ANIME RAPTURE

    If lelouch comes back wont he just be hated by the whole world again ? I do miss him but i cant see him doing any miricles this time :’(

• jessi

  i cant wait but why did rolo kill shirley in season 2

  • Guest

    to protect his beloved ‘older brother’, you have to remember all Rolo knows in his life is to kill, he doesnt have a conscious like most humans

• lulu

  c2 revive lulu with time power might be awsome lol

• Sabari

  Make lelouch presence

• Pinkrose

  ALL HAIL LULU

• Eerie_Hana

  Im really looking forward to this even though lulu wont be in it but i am still hoping he will make an appearance sometime during the season, maybe the last ep or something.

  • nana

    if lulu DO appear at the last episode, dont you think there’ll be s4?? wont that make things more complicated… or something???

• kǎ ài-lì

  the ending of s2 was well though out and lelouch’s plan played out as planned to a T, an ending befitting the great king of chess, however it’s stated that s3 will probably be set before any of the actions of either of previous series happened, meaning a “resurection” wouldn’t be needed. We may in fact have a brief sight of his younger self, C2 may be met as a two or three episode appearance, before going to japan to help with lelouch’s dads plan, but it’s improbable that she would be the one making the contract, since we know her previous contract to be mao.

• kǎ ài-lì

  If s3 is set after season’s two and three’s events then it’s highly likely that C2 will be there, as for lelouch I feel we have a glimpse of him through alternate meens then him being alive. It’s probable will see him through C2′s memories the way we did when she gave suzaku a glimpse of everything. We mmay in fact see him through a look into the mask’s people have had to wear in some main event, or perhaps an enemy with the power to get people to see what they want, in C2′s case that would probably be lelouch.

• kǎ ài-lì

  I’ll be back to see what you think

• S.A.A

  looking forward to it ;3 <3 i love c.g. especially the characters T^T lelouch and c.c <3 long live lelouch<3

• fan

  i would love to see them continue on with lelouch as c2 is talking at the end and says right lelouch i personally have though of quite a few ways in witch he could return from what happened in the anime with out really change the anime much so yea it would be great if they considered doing it as everyone enjoyed the other one with lelouch and the others plus lelouch could have been the driver of the veichle at the end as you didnt get to see the drivers face

• fan

  and he might have got the imortality from killing his father or somthing as he gave nunaly a glimpse of his memorys making the plan with suzaku near the end and since he would have been imortal if he killed c2 he would have became the imortal so since the his father died because of him he could have became imortal for killing him and there is always the posibility he tricked everyone by recording his voice and haveing syico fill in for him again or c2 as she wont die and they would have left so no one knows on the truck with him hiding his face on the truck as he would be hated for his actions so long live lalouch

  • nana

    i agree with you with the part where he might be immortal after killing his dad cuz didnt his dad got it from v.v and all anyway it’ll be great if the cart driver is lulu!
    ALL HAIL LELOUCH!

    • fan

      and as i think i said if he imortal now then how could he have showed his sister that memory bit right before the very end as that isnt part of his power and c2 can do it because shes imortal so yea

      • nana

        yeah, about nunally,,, how did she have that ability?? who gave it to her??

• kǎ ài-lì

  its a good point, there are several diff. ways it could have happened, well hav eto wait and see what they do though

• Chuk

  Man. Maybe its about his son or something? cant wait, better be a mastermind like lelouch or at least be as cool as him. :3

• ANIME RAPTURE

  I miss lelouch but he wont be coming back
  Im looking forward to this new series hope they have made it with similar characters as the old ones

• kǎ ài-lì

  i think it would be interesting if the new main character was a girl, but still had lelouch’s flare

• Karen

  Its dissapointing too know lulu is not comming back, when he IS the whole point to the story and the reason we watched it in the first place.They should give what the viewers want, and that is lelouch. Everybody was anxious to see that lelouch was still alive in the very last episode why give the audience a tease or in this case false hopes if he is not comming back. The show will loose many viewers because their main concern was how lelouch was overcomming his obstacles but now its like starting over another story with the same theme, which seems pretty stupid.

  • nana

    i totally agree on that…

    • lelouchlover!!

      i agree on that 100000000~% they are really stupid if they really make a season three with out lelouch and even have the same theme, because the sales will defiantly (i think) go down!!!DX and the fans will be sooo~ disappointed!!

  when she was in like a truck or something, lelouch will definitly be in season 3.

    Ummm no. She was talking out loud.

• Birdy

  without lelouch R3 will be meaningless frankly speaking,to me specially…. it has started with lelouch and its obvious it should also be end with him and by him,that’s absolute…that’s what everyone who’s been watchin Geass think…. and i’m saying this,lelouch is vital for R3.. ^_^

• Handsomest_zaf

  Haha! This is interesting, though it’s hard to subdue my want for another great plan by Lelouch, and to see whether he actually is alive! Happily married to the lady with Green hair – C.C. or C 2 – I wonder if this new Code Geass will start another burning passion…? Or will we all just want more or Lelouch..?

  They should have Leouch come back but taking over Nunnally’s body like Marianne did with Anya….

• SayomiHayashi

  I’m a tad disappointed that lelouch won;t be featured in the new code geass. but i won’t judge the new season before it comes out. Im actually really looking forward to how its going to go. Is there any set date of the release?

• mariellejoy07

  Please bring Lelouch back in this series

• Freedom

  totaly agreed,i have waited r3 for so long,but it is not complete without LELOUCH,ALL HAIL LELOUCH!!

• Mystcfire

  It can’t be code geass without lelouch

• PJthewishing

  I among others would love to see Lelouche back into the fold even tho he died or faked it……….. Though as of recent events its very unlikely that they will have him starring in a major role in the world if the next season takes place after R2…….. I honestly hope he is alive because he should be the person to live unlike anyone else in the world of Code Geass because out of everyone in the world, who would make themselves into a monster and then have someone kill them so the world can be a better place………… Though i guess im being sentimental about this because i could relate to some of the things that happened, not the detail of course but the general picture of how the story progressed……. how no matter what something got in his way and in the end the best way to win is to just slip into the shadows for the world to live without darkness……….. In the end all we can say i guess is Great story and we hope to see more stories that can affect people’s hearts and how they think about the world…… I Thank you for making this Anime

• Guest

  I think that a show without lelouch as the central character is possible but to ignore him completly would be a bad idea. he had such a large effect that him or Zero should be heavily mentioned regularly. As well, many are waiting to find out if he really died or took C2′s code and became immortal. There was a lot that sugested he was able to survive.

• http://www.facebook.com/Seungtreester Nguyen Tan Tri

  I think the whole point of people wanting a sequel to code geass was to see lelouch… take him out… and change teh director…it might as well be a new anime and take the title code geass away >.<

• JerryTheKid

  Well sorry to disappoint you all but in the episode where C2 is explaining her past she explained once you kill the one who gave you power of geass you will simply gain his/her immortality and ability to give people power of geass.
  But I still hope that Lelouch is still alive, he is best character ever =D.

  • Jackie

    marriane spirit in Anya’s body asked C.C. why she sealed her CODE when she could have given it to charles and then die.. Charles and C.C.doesnt have a contract. in the same sense Lelouch could get immortality from V.V. if he killed V.V.

• Ssangel562

  hes not dead look http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=ylUy6hIfOu8

  • Dsw0thington

    Yea I have seen multiple endings and I have to agree ..
    They room the ending out to make people wonder if he is still alive or dead. But in reality he is actually still alive unless the new director is going to try and take the old ending and change it.

• http://www.facebook.com/people/Myra-Gicelle-Fabian/100000188023236 Myra Gicelle Fabian

  I think changing the plot of the story is not a good idea because season 1 and 2 ending left me with unsatisfiable impression. thus I hope season 3 will be much better like Lelouch is still alive and he is living together with C.C. something like is much better I guess?without Lelouch is not a code geass anymore. if they decided to change the story, it is much better if they also change the characters, because having the same characters but different storyline will be confusing and frustrating for the people who love the season 1 and 2.

• http://profile.yahoo.com/3I2CZGEGQSHJS5IY4XRFEQQYPI Myra Gicelle

  code geass without Lelouch is not a but code geass anymore. Having the same characters but different storyline is a little bit confusing and frustrating for code geass fans of season 1 and 2, especially for those who really love lelouch and besides everyone is expecting that lelouch is still alive and he is still the main character of season 3

• CODE_DEZIL_

  wtf my lelouch is gone ;0. WHYYYYYY!!!!! ima miss him so much. all i have to say is that they need to bring him back (-_-) how u gonna take everyone’s favorite character out of the anime like OMG!!!

• http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001484401649 Yuuki Kuran

  nice
  cant wait

• Oh my Mary

  At the end of season two you can’t see his face driving the cart all cc did was talk to the sky saying she might have been wrong about solitude he was destined for, giving enough proof for death, and his second eye only appeared after talking to god immortality possible after all it’s where his father earned immortality. Cc commented on his eye when he couldnt shut off his power. the manga also splits off two ways one in a different time with the same charaters currently reading on onemanga details still unknown expecting it to be good, and nunnally’s story it could also be that for an anime lulu is in both. Other options previously mentioned story ideas are also possible. Giving opinions are fine writers don’t admit it but they do look at are comments it’s advertisement strategy for those who took any sort of business classes it also helps writing to story not everyone will like it just like final fantasy games there considered great games but some people still don’t like them. So boo you suck to anyone who tries to say other wise and try to ruin what could be a good show don’t judge until you have seen it. ” waves at writers.” I can’t wait to see it!!!!!!!

• NIELFOX

  hey guyz…. when is the final release of code geass 3.. im really excited to see it^^ thank you

• satori

  code geass without lulu is like pirates of the caribbean without pirates

• Kahwai24

  pls make the code geass 3 from the continue of season2 . i mean setting same and people same. i think there are many story can be made after the “death”. it could be possible that,charsle’s brother survive and try again to revive the sword to slay the god. pls continue cause i want to see lelounch plss…. dont change director as it will change the character …..

• Kahwai24

  according to the anime, charsle obtained immortality as he fully made the contract with CC. so as the time lelounch commending the god he he successfully made full contract as his both eye are on “geass”… he is not dead yet…

• Tan Nat

  The important is LELOUCH must be ALIVE in season 3….not other characters

• http://pulse.yahoo.com/_WR7GOSFARK6LEHV2WQE2A4KQQU Ann

  …T.T I wanted to see lelouch as the main character…

• Daniel

  I have my several theories to why I think Lulu is still alive.
  Just like V2, and C2 (Japanese version) C2=CC, the second season is called R2… possibly hinting at a creation of a second immortal, besides R = rebellion. It is possible that lulu becomes R2 after becoming immortal.
  C2 did tell lulu that the more he uses his Geass the more powerful it will become, hence the both eyes thing… She also said, you need a strong Geass user to be able to transfer immortality, which lulu has reached. I think C2 gave it to him… she still had the mark on her forehead to transfer lulu’s mother into the collective memories… the mark is indicative that she still has her “immortal powers”. Furthermore at the end, C2 says “the price you have to pay for using your geass on others is a heavy one”… this can hint at the fact that lulu is paying with his life, or the fact that C2 transferred immortality to lulu and she knows how much it sucks to live for eternity. Furthermore, when lulu “died” at the end, his sister who touched him was able to see scenes in his life, which was something C2 was able to do when she had immortal powers (transfer memory via touch). As well, the ending where C2 is talking, she either is looking up at the sky, or she is talking to the carriage driver, I suspect it is lulu.

  And I’m sitting here waiting for season 3 to come and I personally like to think lulu is still not dead… there are too many hints that he hasn’t died for him to be dead.

  And yeah I would really like to see lulu and sherly in the series , they were a cute / great couple. She still loved him when he had killed her father.
  But that is not possible though, sherly got killed. But still if lulu and CC lives for eternity I would have liked to see them together maybe, as you can see in the series CC got feelings for lulu.
  Another theme:
  Orange knew of Lelouche’s and Suzaku’s plan and helped them out by ordering his men not to fire on Zero, he even smiled when Zerozaku jumped on his shoulder.

  Now would Orange, a man who devoted himself entirely to Lelouche and threw away everything without a second thought be OK with a plan where the sole person he wants to protect in life is actually killed? The answer to that is NO, not even if Lelouche ordered him to accept the plan: he would not go along with it and would protect him with his life. There is only one way that Orange would be OK with a plan like that and thats if he knew about Lelouche’s immortality, which I assume he did as he worked with V.V. in the Geass research base. Orange was OK with this plan as he knew Lelouche would come to no harm and would be able to start a new peaceful life with the woman he loves in a world which he himself had made peaceful.

  Even at the end, we see Orange on his orange plantation, completely content with the way things have panned out, he definitely could not be that happy had Lelouche actually died.

  So this is my thoughts in all this, if lulu wont be comming back in the season 3 I will be very very very disappointed.

  • Charlette

    I too am not buying Lelouch’s permanent death for the very same reasons, however, there isn’t enough material to suffice for another season with Lelouch. With the way things were left, I’m pretty content with how his story ended. Besides there is always a chance that another season could ruin it.

    • fred

      I would like to see a season of an alternative reality were lechouch, becomes the evil he pretends to be.

  • iceknight

    Your last theory is the one I agree with the most, now that I think about it, Orange’s devotion is so strong it could be called an unhealthy mental condition. It is highly unlikely that he’d be so calm and satisfied with the result, even someone as seemingly detached as C2 was upset by Lulu’s “death”.
    I doubt Le louche would want C2 to continue to endure eternity and would want to take it from her out of kindness or because he would not want the strain to be too much and make her desperate to find someone else to make a contract with, risking the rise of a new despot, that Lulu work so hard and sacrificed so much to create, in my opinion, Lulu is too egotistical and too passionate to let that happen.
    Secondly, we don’t really know how the contract works, does Le louche have a choice in the matter; is it inevitable in the sense that he will die or suffer if he does not fulfill his part of the bargain or will it just stick to him whether he wants it or not. So far we can assume that nobody has ever escaped the contract they made, further supporting the likelihood that Lulu is still alive.
    Most of all I really, really want to see Lulu again.

• Nitewing

  Lulouch would b back in r3 cause remember the end of season 2 they saw a person with a cap that is preferable be lulouch and i think that he got that ages from his father now, ya well about sherly i dont think she’ll b back………..

• Tco03yc

  OMg guys…why r ppl so dump srsly…
  if you followed the story correctly then lelouch didnt die. the reason is because if someone kills the geass holder, then he will pass it to his murderer. wich means that his friend should have the geass and lelouch is now nomore immortal.

  • JerryTheKid

    well seems you didn’t remember the most important part it will pass down to you only if you kill the one who gave you geass.

    • jackie

      incase you forgot. lady marriane asked C.C. why she sealed her CODE from Charles when she could get her death wish from him. this part of the anime proves that Lelouch doesnt need C.C.’s code to be immortal.

• Jhorne61

  It’s simply not Code Geass without Lelouch. And the speculation as far as him being alive or dead afer the Zero Requiem… I want him to be alive. I don’t agree with those who say his living would have rendered the Requiem purposeless. He sacrificed everything through what he did. He may have lived, but that does not negate what he did. Besides, everyone assumes he’s dead anyway, so his living really doesn’t effect the world at all. He still took over the world, focusing all the worlds hate upon him, and I guess to a lesser extent Suzaku. Once he did that he removed himself from the world, supposedly ushering in a new era of global peace and cooperation. I’d call that a sucess. As for Shirley coming back, while I did like her character and her death pissed me off just a bit while deepening my dislike for Rolo… She’s staying dead I’m sure. I want Lelouch to be alive, but I fear he won’t even get more than a passing mention, which I think would be a bastardization of Code Geass.

• Rred425

  I just hope Lelouch is not dead, eheheh. I (like many others im sure) Really only got into the show when Lelouch started to go mad with power (and who can blame him? he’s the ultimate mastermind officianado?? XD ) And im not talking “Crazyhouse mad” im just…. you know. he’s likes the power too much (who wouldnt??) so if its not lelouch… welll i wont have much faith in the new season. It’ll have to be some one 5x more awesome then Lelouch to keep me interested. Lelouch of the rebellion!! (has groups of fans scream Aaahwooo Aaawhooo!! hahaaha 300 qoutism)

  • alex

    the mad with power was all an act btw

• Zhero

  If it won’t be the same characters then for me it’s better not to have another season for Lelouch and the other characters make up the anime itself don’t you think?

• ljsakura

  oh please!! please let lulu be in the third season too! i can accept it even if he will not be the lead character as long as he’s still present in the series!!!! >____<

  all hail Lealouch!!!!!!!!

• Pineslaw

  what about collin

• Nathaliedahlseide

  I want Lelouche back he is the true hero!!!

• Balto

  I don’t think Lelouch died because when ever he told the world of C to get rid of his father his father touched his neck possibly giving him his code since as we found out by watching his father supposedly cared for Lelouch and Nunnally more than his other children hence he sent them away to Japan to avoid them from being harmed by their other siblings desiring to take the throne. Back to why I think he Lelouch didn’t die well if his father gave him his code in the moment before the world of C absorbed him out of his care for his son(seeing as he sent Lelouch and Nunnally away to Japan to protect them if he knew he was going to die he would atleast give the son he spent the effort to protect power that would aid him). Like the many people I have seen state this the code would remain dormant until death which would activate the immortality which took place when Suzaku stabbed him in front of all the masses on the last episode of season 2. This is just my thoughts of the matter after watching the series so many times because its just that good that it doesn’t ever get old. Any of you who feel like arguing against this I’d like to see what other people think of this theory.

• lollelouch

  Wow the creator of season 3 by not letting lelouch be in season 3 your not going get as much views from people, so i think you should put him in season 3 honestly

• BobTheGangsta

  I think the new series will fail. I, personally, got very attached to the characters and was very dissapointed that they will not bring A SINGLE character from the original into this, i found that very disturbing and a big turn off. They could’ve done a spin off of any single freaking character, hell a spinoff about the Ashford Academy would’ve great because it would at least have had Kallen. I’m severely dissapointed in the producers of this third anime.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Colin-Mcsperritt/1481771959 Colin Mcsperritt

    Enjoy your spot in the minority there. Most fans are actually curious about the new story. The old cast was great but in the end it was the story and suspense we fell in love with and it can be done anew.
    As for keeping lelouch in the story , I don’t see a realistic way of making it fresh and interesting given how r2 ended.
    My point is people are bitching about absolutely nothing.

• aj

  Stop making us wait

• http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100003416805308 Toyu Frey

  series ended well, i dont really care if u do put lulu back in or not, just focus a bit more on C.C. she is sooo mysterious to me and i want to know what she will do now that lulu is dead. not only that but who will rule britania now?? will it be C.C. or Nunlly??

• fastnip

  when will season 3 come out again? or are there episodes released already? *anxious*

• bulba 001

  Lelouch can’t be dead due to all the evidence presented (the origami crane, mastering his geass and becoming immortal, etc.) And to top everything off he never fulfilled his contract with C.C

• D Joe Frog

  Here is what really happened to lulu. He did die, sadly. Throughout the both series you saw CC talking to herself. Talking to others like her who had died. She was talking to lulu.

• cazer112

  just a theory i came up with last night don’t know if its been said but could cc have been disguised as lulu because even though he didn’t have the mask there is a mask of lulu’s face because the maid wares it to be disguised as him at school anyway just theroy anyone got any thoughs

• jeanne d’arc

  Code Geass is one of my Favourite animes. It is overall great and the Ending was perfect. I’d love to see more of C.C. and Lulu etc. but it would spoil the meaning of the anime. So even though iam sad that the Anime has ended, i truly hope they wont make another one with lulu and the others.

• http://www.facebook.com/galil.tiu Galil Tiu

  i would love to see the new season but like what others request…..can we have lelouch and sherly love story?? ? pls let them back…let their love story continue…..let it be…….^_^

• Zero_Mundo

  : “This is the original Japanese ending of Code Geass which shows the cart driver smiling after C.C makes her speech. The shape of his face and hairstyle look exactly like Lelouch’s and the fact that he smiles at what C.C say’s pretty much confirms it. This was however cut out of the Japanese version and never shown on the English dub. The writers wanted the viewers to decide what happens in the end so this takes away the imagination of the viewers leaving them with an answer. Code Geass R3 was confirmed but with different characters so Lelouch won’t be there anyway. The point of showing him alive was probably to make the ending even happier because he managed to make everyone happy except for C.C who was trying to find love for over 200 years and finally did only to have him taken away. With this ending he wipes himself out of existence to make the world happy, but lives together in hiding with C.C with immortality.”

  Nevermind that Sherly girl, let the japanese have her, I think it would be more suited to see a C.C after with Lelouch like 300 years in the future, cuz their still alive & immortal or something

• lulu or ****

  Lelouch vi Britania should have commanded you to put him in the series Code Geas, without him or C.C. it would just be boring man

• tfcmad

  disappointed? A season 3 would be awesome

• Daniel

  I love this anime Can’t wait

• R2 Geass

  All I know is that lelouch is still alive. if you doubt me go to YouTube and type CODE GEASS LELOUCH LIVES and click on the video that’s by animestation11. Just watch all of the video.
  Thank you

• CGferLIEF

  Use your heads now, lelouch cannot die, he is invincible in the same manner his father was, he is the one driving the carriage in the end, rewatch the final episode and pay close attention.

• anime-evo:id3346mn3462

  The one thing you need is romance! you gotta bring back lelouch and Kallen where it gets intense! or more explosions. Or maybe where they meet…. or something. How about as Japan developes Kallen goes on a trip to Europe for politics for whatever and undercover Lelouch is and undercover agent protecting an offocial in Europe and when Kallen and Lelouch walk into the room for peice treaties or whatever his hat falls off and sais” my mistake” BUT Kallen sees his face and it gets all edgy and ALIENS ATTACK THE PLANET!!!!!!!! ha ha. hope you take atleast some of that seriously.

  • Tilux222

    This was the best show but it left a Deep Hole in my mind when it all ends. Kullan and Lelouch need to be together somehow and they cannot use totaly different Characters for this NEW season!

    • ANime-McBagder

      I KNOW MAN! quick send this to the front lines we must warn the animators. but seriously you got a point.

• KKKVolume24

  Yeah I agree lol. They need Kallen and Lu back or i wont watch it. thats the only thing that makes it good. Kallun and lulu.

• blende3R

  Seriously I WONT WATCH THE SERIES WITHOUT MOST OF THE SAME CHARACTERS like!!!!!! Kullan and Lelouch. C2 is aswell! Id be gratefull if somewhat in making this cartoon would shape the show alittle. and WOW 2 years ago. this grate show is going no where ):

  the best thing in code geass is relationship between leluoch and C.C and with his friends..it will become so odd and diffrerent if without him..i hope the next season leluoch will be there..plzz

  lelouch is not dead cuz the witch made him like her so now he cant die lol people pay atention.

• :)

  what would be cool if lulu was brought back to life through some means and began to destroy the world again XD

• Zero Geass

  I agree that lulu isn’t dead. But I don’t think shirly is coming back to life. It shocked me when she died. I hope she does and I hope lulu brings her backs with his geass. But the 2 loved each other. I hope that she does. But the music at the endings of the episodes r creepy and annoying.
