God, it's been way too long since the 2nd episode! Such a life of an OVA format. Anime hyper

I mean, we ALL know it's Lelouch but for the sake of movie continuity and things the actual main character of this series doesn't know why aren't we labeling his lines in the article as Julius Kingsley?

Well at least the fourth episode won't be too far behind the third.

Good to know that Sunrise has not given up on this. Now I just have to wait for Funimation to release it sometime in 2030.

Well I doubt they'd ever drop a Code Geass project completely. Especially one with Lelouch in it. He practically carries this series.

Hmm... I know the original BDs for Code Geass didn't get subs, but Akito has so far, and this is Bandai, so maybe we'll see subs on the upcoming remastered BDs? I would much rather import that than wait for Funimation to give it some kind of ridiculous easel CE much later down the road.

I can see Funimation offering easels, but they should also release regular boxes, like they did for Cowboy Bebop.

The time between the release of #2 (Hikisakareshi Yokuryū) and #3's (Kagayaku Mono no Ten yori Otsu) is quite long; about the same lenght between #1's (Yokuryū wa Maiorita) and #2's.

At least #4 (Nikushimi no Kioku kara) should be released two months later, in July, and not some 15 months later.

That's what I would prefer. I would buy a CE with an artbox for Code Geass, but I'm not about the whole easel business. Unless it's actually on display, it is almost invisible on the shelf. Anyway, I'm still just going to cross my fingers and hope for subs on the Japanese release. I wonder if this is going to be a volume release, or a box set.

They are box sets, and I believe they have been out for a while. I am not that informed about them, but I do't think they are English subtitled.

Since Akito is ending and the remasters are being released before the 10th anniversary next year....Renya anime? lol I doubt it.

With "Julius Kingsley" finally coming in, what are the chances that he is already Lelouch and that this event will never be referenced in R2 anyways and with that in mind, I wonder if this is going to raise any plot holes in continuity.

God, please no. Reyna is trash which doesn't do C.C justice at all, to the extent that's it's pretty much non cannon.

I was actually interested in Akito before the mc turened out to be rather similar to Lelouch in motivation. I was much more interested in the political state of the EU but that's barely been touched on...Now I just want to see Lelouch if he'd never left Britannia xD

So Lelouche is still around? Man, talk about a spoiler for me since I never finished the first series or even got the 2nd and yet they are both sitting on my shelves. Gotta get to that.
