An anime with a smart, driven character like Lelouch, a mysterious girl like cc, and a plot where the characters are involved with something important.

Would really appreciate any suggestions, though maybe I'm being too specific.

Well the only anime comparable to Code Geass is Death Note imo.
You could also check Steins;Gate if you want a smart plot.

Guilty Crown has a lot of similarities.

And definitely Death Note.

True. The Only Differences between Code Geass and Guilty Crown are:

Guilty Crown: You've been given the Power of the Kings. You can now do by your lone self what a thousand men could never hope to accomplish. Also, here's your hot magic girl.

Shuu: Ah, um, ow... *sob* I miss my boring, ordinary life.

Code Geass: You've been given the Power of the Kings. You can now do by your lone self what a thousand men could never hope to accomplish. Also, here's your hot magic girl.

Lelouch: Oh? Then please bear with me as I CONQUER THE WORLD. All those who wronged me, yes, they shall pay.

And Lelouche was a narcissistic selfish bastard who blatantly caused the death of thousands of people due to his own arrogance.

Also, I don't know about you, but I don't know many introverted 15 year olds who are willing to join violent terrorist organizations... maybe that's just me..

He wasn't selfish, he was doing everything for his sister, and then he was doing everything for everyone in the world an for humanity in general. A selfish person would not have the ending he did.

Also They were 18 in the series.

Thanks for the suggestions, and yeah i watched Death Note, though it was hard watching Light being such a bastard(at least Lelouch showed actual emotions when he did something morally wrong)

Also Lelouch won in the end, whereas Light lost.

But to tell you the truth I kinda like him more that way, since it's more realistic as it were. He did at least make up for his sins in the end.

Maybe Guilty Crown also?

All of those quoted are highly suggested also.
