No, you're correct. Season 1 was kino until the last episode which was dogshit, then Season 2 was pure dogshit until its last episode where the ending was kino.
R2 isn't as good as the first season, but it's not awful. The best of the series is still the full episodes, and any part where Suzaku gets his ass kicked and starts crying.
R2's first half is fine, even though the timeslot change made the show a lot more kiddy-friendly and they basically had to reset the entire status quo to the very beginning of the story to bring new viewers up to speed.
The last 10 episodes of R2 are a total fricking trainwreck, though. Watching it live with Cinemaphile in the summer of 2008 was wild. You had shitposters who were just enjoying the chaos and fanboys who were jumping through hoops to try to defend it and the shtflinging kept getting worse every week lmao
That was the last series I watched in its entirety livestreamed with Cinemaphile. My favorite part was how mad the translator groups were when the second Project Ali ED dropped. And the .gif of the "alternate ending" that showed Lelouch on the cart through clever editing and convinced every homosexual that he really was alive.
i've only seen the original code gayass series, what else should i watch?
Nothing unless you are extremely bored, everything after R2 is truly awful. The other stuff doesn't even have funny things, like the Royal Hotline.
Code Geass is the worst case of Fake Smart in anime that I have ever seen. Okabe from SG makes Lelouch look like a moron in comparison.
No idea, most likely only L.L. (Lelouch) and C.C. will appear if this new show follows the last movie timeline.
Pic related is supposedly the current head of the Sumeragi clan. The one before her was Kaguya Sumeragi but she was a teenager and this new one looks older.
So maybe some years have already passed?
Only L.L. and C.C. would make sense to appear again since they are immortal. All the others would be some old farts.
I respect your taste, but personally I can't ever like tsunderes too much. They always come across as immature to me, unless they develop or unless they are actually children.
Plus I love C.C.'s figure. Very rare to see that body type in anime.
okabe spent half of the episodes saying he didn't have time to explain to his other lab members the situation while he ran around aimlessly for hours at a time until he finally decides to clue one of them in in a later time jump
Okabe is a dumbass larping as a mad scientist
Okabe literally needed kurisu to tell him what to do whereas the sigma lelouch concocted the zero requiem
Okabe figured out how to make a time machine and fix the worldline by tricking himself, which itself is a more clever plan than anything Lelouch ever came up with.
Code Geass is unironically my favorite anime. I’ve never been more entertained by one then watching this back then with Cinemaphile. No wonder Japan loves Lelouch so much.
>exactly the same shit
They're not, Code Geass is plotted like it was made by idiots. Do you even remember "For example if I ordered you to kill all the Japanese"?
it's just dramatized to maximum fun effect
it is exactly the same with steins gate they are not that very different from each other in their presentation SG just doesn't have that over the top action like CG does

Nope. SG is fully self aware with its humor and plot while still being serious enough to take seriously. Campiness is not quality and Code Geass is a joke of an anime.

oh just like the time they send a message back in time to the mom of the troon so she would eat more vegatables so she could birth a girl and it works, but the character looks and acts exactly the same except she doesn't have a dick, but glowBlack folk attack or some shit and they go back to the original timeline

What an insane oversimplification of how the time travel works, you sound like you have no comprehension of what you were watching. The timeline change is not because of vegetables, it's because of chaos theory changing things that can't be foreseen, it's smarter than anything shit like Geass has ever been able to come up with.
You have no clue what you're talking about. No wonder you like Code Geass.
Code Geass is unironically my favorite anime. I’ve never been more entertained by one then watching this back then with Cinemaphile. No wonder Japan loves Lelouch so much.
Code Geass is almost the opposite of LOGH. LOGH is substance first but weak on presentation. Code Geass is a wild ride carried by its presentation but it’s lean on substance. Biggest similarity is a wide cast of characters in a war that is underlined by ideological differences. Code Geass is recommended, but I can’t tell you if you’d like it or not.
This was my favourite show when I first got into anime.
I rewatched it recently and realized it's actually insanely idiotic and basically just gundam on earth with really stupid magic powers.
But it is entertaining. Maybe I'm just nostalgic idk
Code Geass is just yet another >Japan strong, frick the Anglo
anime, much like GATE is. I mean I can get it and all, but, to make it so obvious it's annoying.
Code Geass is a very unique and interesting work. Simultaneously a masterpiece and total sloppy bullshit. I love it for how ambitious it is. Very engaging watch.
In Geass? The rest is kind of whatever. If you want to get back into it you can try the movie canon which retells the series slightly differently and then adds a new chapter after the end (kind of R3) but for the most part the extended canon is whatever.
If you mean other anime, what are you looking for?
Mmm not as controversial, but also not as interesting. It’s a retelling with minor changes and an extended section after where the original anime ends.
I'd like to specify that you should only watch the original series, because everything past that does everything in its power to butcher everything the original series stood for.
I kneel, I thought that was a different protag. Haven't seen hyouka but i did like 8man and bunny girl senpai. They're both slice of life, especially the former, but they do have their dramatic moments.
It'll happen to you too. One day you'll realize what a harem it was and everything else looks real flimsy. 2007-Wii aesthetic Kino maybe but it'll happen to you, sure shootin
was it really? I thought it turned to shit after 2nd season
he redeemed C.C(ute) finds him and sets him straight
No, you're correct. Season 1 was kino until the last episode which was dogshit, then Season 2 was pure dogshit until its last episode where the ending was kino.
Season 2 was good.
R2 isn't as good as the first season, but it's not awful. The best of the series is still the full episodes, and any part where Suzaku gets his ass kicked and starts crying.
Early episodes, not full episodes.
I'm playing Factorio in the other window.

They're both moronic.
>cart driver
canon in the movies lol
It was already shit in the first season. Is it fun? kinda. Is it good? nope
I hate all Clamp character designs
>dune, but japanese
Also, will the new one be kino or sloppa?
>disney
no hope
Didn't disney butcher Summertime Rendering and Bleach?
booba
no lelouch no watch
He will probably have a very minor role like he did in Akito
i dont know much about it, will CC or anyone from the original be in it?
No idea, most likely only L.L. (Lelouch) and C.C. will appear if this new show follows the last movie timeline.
Pic related is supposedly the current head of the Sumeragi clan. The one before her was Kaguya Sumeragi but she was a teenager and this new one looks older.

Who's thats semen demon? What's her name? the image search isn't helping
Catherine, her name was just revealed today or yesterday I think, so don't expect more pics of her until the release
I will watch it for the big booba
I would've preferred a prequel starring the hot-headed and silly ancestor of Kaguya Sumeragi
C.C. best (and hottest) girl
Kallen is the best, and she's extremely hot with her hair down.
I respect your taste, but personally I can't ever like tsunderes too much. They always come across as immature to me, unless they develop or unless they are actually children.
Plus I love C.C.'s figure. Very rare to see that body type in anime.
I didn't figure Kallen as a tsundere, she's more of a tomboy type.
Yeah that's probably more fair. It's been awhile since I've seen it, and I think I liked Kallen somewhat, I just liked C.C. way more.
Yeah honestly I don't like tsunderes either. Been indifferent at best to every single one.
This, cc was the only good one for lelouch (who deserved to suffer)
LALOOOOOOOSHHH
ALL HAIL BRITTANIA
Yeah, I made the same mistake of rewatching it. Still totally worth, if just to witness the redemption of orange-kun again.
Zero Al Gaib
Code Geass is the worst case of Fake Smart in anime that I have ever seen. Okabe from SG makes Lelouch look like a moron in comparison.
rewatching it I realized it wasn't as galaxy brained as I thought ten years ago in middleschool. but I guess I was the target audience so makes sense
Okabe is a genius pretending he's dumb, Lelouch is a dumb person pretending he's a genius.
okabe spent half of the episodes saying he didn't have time to explain to his other lab members the situation while he ran around aimlessly for hours at a time until he finally decides to clue one of them in in a later time jump
The man invented a time machine. He's far smarter than Lelouch is.
that was daru and karisu
You wouldn't get it.
Okabe is a dumbass larping as a mad scientist
Okabe literally needed kurisu to tell him what to do whereas the sigma lelouch concocted the zero requiem
Okabe figured out how to make a time machine and fix the worldline by tricking himself, which itself is a more clever plan than anything Lelouch ever came up with.
You have the taste of a 12 year old.
code geass and steins gate is exactly the same shit it's just code geass manages to be a lot more explosive and cinematic with its presentation
>exactly the same shit
They're not, Code Geass is plotted like it was made by idiots. Do you even remember "For example if I ordered you to kill all the Japanese"?
it's just dramatized to maximum fun effect

You have no clue what you're talking about. No wonder you like Code Geass.
I tried watching these but they're extremely cringeworthy.
There's only one cringeworthy show there are it's Code Geass.
reddit show made for women
I like the narrative of S;G but not the characters. Curious if the VN would change my mind on that.
S;G was so underwhelming. I don't know why it's considered a top anime kino.
The only thing I remember about this show is that 90% of the battles go really well and then that c**t Suzaku shows up and ruins everything.
Why did they made her so dirty, bros?
MOAR LIKE CODE GAYASS IMRITE OR IMRITE?
>protag tell person to literally kys
>they actually do it
Is Lelouch our guy?
I've only watched Code Ment but it is still fricking hilarious
Purpleeyes is legitimately a genius
Cecilia a cute
Code Geass is unironically my favorite anime. I’ve never been more entertained by one then watching this back then with Cinemaphile. No wonder Japan loves Lelouch so much.
It would have been kino if the 2nd season was half the length and cut out all the bullshit.
I'm a simpler man, I like TTGL more
Is Cinemaphile really that bad when Cinemaphile's getting frequent anime threads now?
if Cinemaphile was a troony board in 2007 just imagine how shitty it is now anon
will i like this show if the only chinese cartoon i liked so far was logh

The abridged series of this is funnier than anything team four star ever put out. Literally a joke every 3 seconds
That's because it's an actual parody unlike TFS poor attempt at rewriting DBZ with Whedon-like quips, especially during cell saga
Code Geass? More like Code GAYASS. Literally only good part is the table fricking scene.
Code Geass is just yet another

yeah it's fun
I wish we got more grand original stories from modern anime.
>grand
>original
>anime
Yes.
Correct.
there is like 3-4 originals every season and almost none of them are good
i've only seen the original code gayass series, what else should i watch?
In Geass? The rest is kind of whatever. If you want to get back into it you can try the movie canon which retells the series slightly differently and then adds a new chapter after the end (kind of R3) but for the most part the extended canon is whatever.
If you mean other anime, what are you looking for?
sorry, yea i meant geass
i guess the movie is like eva's rebuilds then?
Mmm not as controversial, but also not as interesting. It’s a retelling with minor changes and an extended section after where the original anime ends.
Eureka Seven
I'd like to specify that you should only watch the original series, because everything past that does everything in its power to butcher everything the original series stood for.
It jumped the shark pretty quick
Did they foreshadow at all that his Geass would suddenly get stuck on or was this literally the first time out of nowhere?
They did actually.
I look like this and act like this.
What are some televisions and films for me.
Top left and bottom right are kino
Bottom left and top right are slop
only top right is remotely good, everything else sucks
What is top right?
Hyouka. It's SOL show so it's got SOVL
I kneel, I thought that was a different protag. Haven't seen hyouka but i did like 8man and bunny girl senpai. They're both slice of life, especially the former, but they do have their dramatic moments.
My favorite girl is Euphemia.
>tried watching the show
>got to the episode where they chased around the cat at school
>stopped watching
one of the few anime's I've dropped.
There’s a few filter points and that’s one of them for sure. To be fair, I took it as intentionally frustrating given the narrative, but I get it.
thats a cartoon
>finish watching steins gate for the first time yesterday
>liked it a lot
>today
>see this thread with everyone shitting on it
damn...
It’s divisive, you’re not wrong for liking it.
i love code gayass man, sure it can be incredibly dumb but it never stops being entertaining
uh didn't meant to reply
It's a lot better than shit like Code Geass, those people are just blind fanboys.
It'll happen to you too. One day you'll realize what a harem it was and everything else looks real flimsy. 2007-Wii aesthetic Kino maybe but it'll happen to you, sure shootin
Unironically the last kino anime
>2008
There’s been a few classics since.
What I liked about Code Geass was that massive shit was going down each episode and the train never felt like it was going to stall.
Yep. Good bad or ugly it’s a wild ride.
Honestly it’s one of those shows where if you suspend your disbelief it’s completely kino of the highest order.
