Code Geass: Hangyaku no Lelouch Recaps

Code Geass is, by the very definition of a masterpiece, a solid one.
I haven't seen Code Geass (except for some specials) in over 3 years, which only aided in fading the latter in my memory, making me forgot how much of a blast the show was.
Watching these two episodes recap, they sure bring back most of the hype, of course, they can't cover everything for instance, but some of the biggest highlights from the first season are brought back, making me almost relive the first time I had the pleasure to enjoy it for the first time.
I can't say the recap was that great from ... a recap stand of point, maybe because the parent show was just that good it makes you ignore everything else. Decent recap, phenomenal series.

This will be a really quick review since these are just recap episodes. What I don't understand is why they didn't add th recaps to the series instead of putting them as stand alones. I also don't understand why it's rated so highly and being added as favorites.

This was kinda a waste of my time, but I guess if you forgot what happened and don't have time to re-watch the whole series, then you can re-watch these 2 episode recaps.
