Fun fact: in the first episode in the chess game you really have to start with the king to win. It is absolutely real chess position, not just random chess pieces on a board like most shows do. Huge respect to whoever made this scene.
There's videos analyzing the chess games in this show and the strategies also represent their personalities. While the chess games are not always accurate, they are a great story telling device if you pay close attention.
rewatched it 30 times and has been preaching it to various reactors and folks to watch it... in sub and dub XD. Also, The new Gundam Witch From Mercury is actually written by the creator of code geass.
The reason everyone is so "long" its because the char design was made by Clamp, its a manga studio compesed of mainly 4 woman, they became well know by the style of doing handsome man and woman with very slim and tall builds, other works by them are Sakura Card Captor, X , xxx Holic and many others, and man I really prefer this show in japanese, Lelouch voice is unmatched in the original
This show is really great overall cant wait till what Lindsay has to say about the end of this season, also loving the double eps in one vid keep up the good work.
I’m glad your showing Lindsay the series since Code Geass has a crazy franchise. With a great ova series that makes Geass lore insane, side story manga that goes deep dive with new main characters and prequel manga goes full Dragon Ball/Jujutsu Kaisen power system. All of that is canon in the universe and in sequel game we get a fate level power system. I hope you guys play the games and get into the ova and movie since it’s insane.
btw lelouch has experience piloting a knightmare as during years before the show takes place he was trained and piloted the ganymede his mothers old knightmare for school events so while knightmares are simple to use not everyone can just up and pilot them efficiently especially in battle and since lelouch doesnt practice much, wasnt born with talent for it, and doesnt have rigorous fighting/military training he cannot become more than an slightly above average pilot unlike others until he gets a knightmare custom suited to his strengths while aces like kallen and suzaku can be deadly and efficient with even outdated frames and even more overpowered with advanced frames and i believe they kinda touch on this during one of the school episodes later on if i remember correctly
Love the 3 episode format and hype as hell to see this, subscribed, liked, leaving a comment for the algorithm. C.C. is best girl. "Are you embarking on the path of blood?" "Indeed. If that is my destiny."
Great choice Code geass is really epic Also best part is both karsen and me being hyped exactly before something crazy happens and waiting for her reaction
When originally came out they didn't think was going to do well, in fact got by with sponsors and had to change a bit of how originally was going to be. Was supposed to be a series of 50 episodes but settled for a 2 season of 25 episodes and had to put in a 1 or 2 year time gap so had to change their plans half way through. Also reason why see Pizza Hut in the series.
Wow, what a coincidence that I just started watching and finishing Code Geass last week. Then, Mob Psycho 100 also finished last December. Well, enjoy the ride! :D
"What will Suzaku think when he sees the massacre commited by Britania?" That's the best part, he doesn't think, he is the biigest hypocrite on the planet.
We’ll he also wasn’t told that Clovis issued the order to genocide the ghetto He could have probably put it together, big L on his part. But he assumes that the rebels threw things into chaos and it is all collateral damage, and Britannia is just reacting to things
I am fine with multiple episodes, however it would be nice to have a brief pause to talk in between just so one plot twist can be digested before moving onto the next.
To be fair to the Lad I watched code geass like 50 times and I didn't know half the stuff he was talking about tbh Getting some stuff wrong happens, you still knew waaay more then I did and I think that alone is an achievement! Well done!
Sorry but you're wrong. EU has Europe, Russia, Africa and Middle east at this point. Then Chinese federation has whole Far east. Holy Britannian Empire has North and South America and New Zealand at the start of the show, and then Japan of course
code geass is literally my favorite anime of all time, disappointed in myself that i missed yall react to this by a few months 😭 Will you guys watch Akito the Exiled or Lelouch of the Resurrection?
For the guy being the one to have seen the show, he seems to make a lot of leading comments and explanations instead of letting the girl make comments about what is going on and forming her own opinion and understanding of events. Explaining IFF made sense though, if she really didn't know it or could tell from context. Afterwards discussion was nice.
You guys planning to watch the trilogy? And see what they changed and whatnot. Then proceeding on watching it's direct sequel Fukkatsu no Lelouch? Because there's going to be a Z of the Recapture one, that is a direct sequel to that movie.
English dub is very good for Code Geass, but the sub just gives off Emperor vibes to lelouch, just very fitting. I hope there could be a poll for this.
The history is basically Napoleon winning but George Washington losing, then the British Royal Family is ousted from Britain, goes to America and expands the empire from there.
I love you guys so much for reacting this anime! This anime is so good, it's awesome! Edit: you should never watch in english but at least this is quite good dub so
I haven't watched this show in forever so I just realized, but did the creators of the show seriously not know the rules of chess? It's impossible to move your king on the first move, there's nowhere for it to go. Feels weird to have to explain this but it can only move one space at a time, albeit in any direction, but it's literally blocked on all sides at the beginning so all you could do is move it off the table which isn't a legal move. Maybe he just knocked the king over to forfeit? Since that's literally the only valid thing you could do, but also the strangest possible decision for a first move unless you really just don't want to play your opponent.
Kind of disappointed you're watching the dub, not gonna lie. It's like watching a dub of Jojo's or something. The original voice acting is legendary and is a huge part of what makes the show great. ARRRRRRRRU HAIRRRRRRU BRRRRRITANNIA.
Oh god, I still remember how much people hyped this show for me years ago and I ended up being upset with almost everything, except one thing that I really liked (but later, the show ruined it anyways). I still don´t understand how so many people try to compare Lelouch with Light Yagami, alleging that both are on a par in terms of intelligence. Anyways, I am very interested in the discussion that both of you can give about the series and its characters. Regardless of what you think at the end of watching it (mainly Lindsay since she is the one who sees the series for the first time), I highly value your analysis and perhaps I can change to a more positive opinion (or stick with the one I already have). I wish you the best and I hope the channel continues to grow!
I think we give the show a fair shake, but we mostly have a positive outlook. It takes a while for Lindsay to get really into it, but once she meets more of the characters she gets more attached Hope we can give you a different perspective, even if we don't change your mind
Lelouch and Light both tried to change the world solely by getting their hands dirty, solely by murdering people left and right. They both had a very pessimistic view of a how a better world could be created and they both nearly succeeded. ( Lelouch technically could've failed if all went to shit after you know what happened as he no longer had any controls over the events ). They indeed equal in terms of intelligence, but Lelouch is more of a strategist while Light is more of a manipulator. And it's easy to understand why. One can do everything remotely and simply needs to make sure no one can suspect him, while the other is waging a war. They do things differently. And they live in much different worlds. They both created a cult of personnality around themselves and they both had people they were really closed to, who were on the opposite team trying to bring them down. They are so similar it's actually brain-wrecking to imagine anyone struggling with the comparison.
@@kurozumi9834 *SPOILERS FOR DEATH NOTE AND CODE GEASS* But I think anyone who thinks about their actual characters, not just their actions but what they value personally, would land at the conclusion that they are very different. You're right, the comparison is understandable if you look in the right place, but Light never actually gave af about his family. There was one scene in part 2 where he seemed be struggle with the idea of hurting his family, but that never stopped him. Whereas Lelouch would NEVER do anything to hurt Nunnally. And you mention pessimism, but I disagree with that entirely. Light without the death note is purely an optimistic idealist. However upon getting the power to change things, we see any kind of true morality fall away, only being used as another means to an end. He is godless, one might say, which makes sense, given that he wants to become a god, he can't be driven by any outside morality other than his own desires and principles. While Lelouch is conflicted, but ultimately lands on optimism and puts forward a plan based entirely on his hope for the future of unity among humanity. They are essentially opposites, starting morally where the other ended. This is what people mean when they say, "I don't understand how people can compare the two." But you're right, on a surface level, this is understandable as code geass can scratch a similar itch for a viewer looking for a replacement for death note.
@@BOLDcast i hated death note, felt was trying to be super edgy, i love code geass now that im rewatching with you guys, is "too anime" but when i first watched i loved it, is still good dont get me wrong
LEAVE A LIKE FOR US STARTING A NEW SERIES! We hope you enjoy!
Also you can see up to episode 13 UNCUT on Patreon.com/BOLDcast Right Now!!

Not other show, even this show going onward hahaha
@@denilsoncordeiro591 yeah. That was kinda sad. xD
There's videos analyzing the chess games in this show and the strategies also represent their personalities. While the chess games are not always accurate, they are a great story telling device if you pay close attention.
How is it possible to start with the king? You can't move it without moving the pawns first.
@@PhantomRedKnight it's not a starting position. Some dude left and Lelouch took his place.
Code Geass is the only anime that I rewatched for more than 5 times and still crying for it... Definitely, one of the best show ever (not only Anime)
I have rewatched it 11 times
rewatched it 30 times and has been preaching it to various reactors and folks to watch it... in sub and dub XD.
Also, The new Gundam Witch From Mercury is actually written by the creator of code geass.
Well said Not only anime it is perfection.
Same!!
Watched it 5 times on both sub and dubbed
This is why Lelouch is THE number one favourite anime character of all time according to MAL
The reason everyone is so "long" its because the char design was made by Clamp, its a manga studio compesed of mainly 4 woman, they became well know by the style of doing handsome man and woman with very slim and tall builds, other works by them are Sakura Card Captor, X , xxx Holic and many others, and man I really prefer this show in japanese, Lelouch voice is unmatched in the original
tbf, JYB also really sells Lelouch
The english voice actor is also "unmatched". This is a good dub
Typically I'm subs >>> dub, but in case of Code Geass the dub is hella good as well. Respect to both JP and EN VAs
I like CLAMPs style.
Better than the original.@@darknessknows1235
11:52 That eye contact with the camera....I lol'd hard. :)
I adore this show.
UA-cam Notif: "Boldcast is reacting to Code Geass"
Me: *"Well then 😈"*
I watched this show out of boredom without no context or heard about it at all, it's the best anime experience for me
This show is really great overall cant wait till what Lindsay has to say about the end of this season, also loving the double eps in one vid keep up the good work.
One of my firsts! Criminally underrated by the UA-cam reaction community so thank you and hope she loves it as much as I did!!!
I’m glad your showing Lindsay the series since Code Geass has a crazy franchise. With a great ova series that makes Geass lore insane, side story manga that goes deep dive with new main characters and prequel manga goes full Dragon Ball/Jujutsu Kaisen power system.

I hope you guys play the games and get into the ova and movie since it’s insane.
'The only ones who shoulf kill are those who are prepared to be killed' Lelouch's signature lime. Better remember this.
Damn the Sam Slander!!! Just Kidding. I havent watched this show in years so I will just take the time to re-live this show with you all!
Blind watching is insane, KNOWING what's coming ahead is also insane.
This is in my top 5 anime, absolutely love it to death. Super glad you two are reacting to it!
God this is such a fucking masterpiece of an anime!
She’s gonna love it 😁
btw lelouch has experience piloting a knightmare as during years before the show takes place he was trained and piloted the ganymede his mothers old knightmare for school events so while knightmares are simple to use not everyone can just up and pilot them efficiently especially in battle and since lelouch doesnt practice much, wasnt born with talent for it, and doesnt have rigorous fighting/military training he cannot become more than an slightly above average pilot unlike others until he gets a knightmare custom suited to his strengths while aces like kallen and suzaku can be deadly and efficient with even outdated frames and even more overpowered with advanced frames and i believe they kinda touch on this during one of the school episodes later on if i remember correctly
btw ther kallender (a.t.b.) is 55 years ahead so britania invaded japan in 1955 and we are now in the 60s
Love the 3 episode format and hype as hell to see this, subscribed, liked, leaving a comment for the algorithm. C.C. is best girl.
"Are you embarking on the path of blood?"
"Indeed. If that is my destiny."
Great choice
Code geass is really epic
Also best part is both karsen and me being hyped exactly before something crazy happens and waiting for her reaction
I can normally never rewatch show even movies (live action or animes) but Code Geass is one of the few shows I willingly rewatch!
When originally came out they didn't think was going to do well, in fact got by with sponsors and had to change a bit of how originally was going to be. Was supposed to be a series of 50 episodes but settled for a 2 season of 25 episodes and had to put in a 1 or 2 year time gap so had to change their plans half way through.

Wow, what a coincidence that I just started watching and finishing Code Geass last week. Then, Mob Psycho 100 also finished last December.
Well, enjoy the ride! :D
Just keep in mind that Code Geass is basically a Shakespearean tradegy in a disguise of an anime and you'll love it.
This is and always will be my favorite anime of all time! so excited to watch a fresh reaction to this S+ tier anime
"What will Suzaku think when he sees the massacre commited by Britania?"
That's the best part, he doesn't think, he is the biigest hypocrite on the planet.
We’ll he also wasn’t told that Clovis issued the order to genocide the ghetto
He could have probably put it together, big L on his part. But he assumes that the rebels threw things into chaos and it is all collateral damage, and Britannia is just reacting to things
Shame the BD's remove Pizza Hut. Its part of the full Code Geass experience.
There are only two things I watch annually... The Lord of the Rings (FotR, TT, RotK) and Code Geass.
Thrilled knowing you are getting into this one!
I like the triple drop. It helps with the pacing.
You got a new subscriber! I really love code geass and anyone who watches it makes me sub. You're doing great guys. I hope you like it more
Thanks so much! We hope to keep putting out stuff you enjoy!
This will be a good show to see if Linsdsey can decode Lachoche plans before hand 😁
All hail Lelouch, all hail Lelouch
I am fine with multiple episodes, however it would be nice to have a brief pause to talk in between just so one plot twist can be digested before moving onto the next.
Code Geass, imo, is the golden standard of any anime masterpiece.
If you want to say XYZ is a masterpiece, it gotta be at least as good as Code Geass.
This is my all time favorite anime I hope you enjoy
most goated mcs of anime period
Holy phack you discovered code geass?! oh boy lemme watch this with you for the billionth time with no regrets lol
Lelouch is smarter than light.

I watched code geass like 50 times and I didn't know half the stuff he was talking about tbh

Hardly any changes not worth it just look up the one major change for Fukkatsu and even the change does mean nothing for that movie
Should check out afro samurai and samurai champloo 💯

Finally watching the best show oat!
Hell yeah! Hope you enjoy the series Lindsay. This show makes me hungry for Pizza Hut
Not gonna lie but i feel like the pizza in this show does not look tasty
@@BOLDcast All the budget went to the Drip. but this anime forsure makes me crave Pizza hut lol
3:19 i love how right when i said:"I hope they are watching sub", you crushed my heart(dub is good for sure, i just like sub much more).
YESSSSS GREAT REACTIOK SERIES
English dub is very good for Code Geass, but the sub just gives off Emperor vibes to lelouch, just very fitting. I hope there could be a poll for this.
OMG, i didn't know you're a couple because your face look like a twin or atleast brother sister
Let’s go! My favorite anime of all time also best ending of of all time
Oh yes this series is dope as hell!
The history is basically Napoleon winning but George Washington losing, then the British Royal Family is ousted from Britain, goes to America and expands the empire from there.

I love you guys so much for reacting this anime! This anime is so good, it's awesome!
Edit: you should never watch in english but at least this is quite good dub so
