The two main reasons why this series is getting hated:

1. The Protagonist - people think that Lelouch is a bad protagonist
2. The Ending - people call it disappointing and trash

1.The gainaxtard are attacking just because it dont created by gainax like ttgl or eva,, or maybe they pretending to be elite, because CG dont take itself seriously
Or its not deep.

2.Logh fans are also pretending to be elite, about how CG is overrated, especiallly lelouch, like just stfu lmao, your ova just dethrone both r1 and r2 in ranks and yet you still bitching about reinhard not on top, might aswell if eren take the top 1 spot, you compare it to something nonsensical.

Both i considered as envy and greed.

it's not sarcasm, it's true. I've seen many people here on MAL hating this series and those two reasons are the reasons that I hear most often.

Code Geass gets almost no hate at all. If anything, it’s one of the most coveted anime series of all time?? I’m not quite sure where you’re seeing hate, but hating code geass is definitely a very unpopular opinion in the community. It’s a great show that almost everyone rated highly. So don’t worry lol, it is very much not hated by a lot of people.

You can’t describe an anime and say it’s “kinda overrated”. It’s overrated or not no in between, it’s not overrated btw and what hate are you talking about because I don’t see it

First time ever that I hear people hating on Code Geass. All I have to say is that I'm not even a fan of mecha/robot animes but Code Geass had a huge impact on me back when it was released. It was legendary back then if you're an old anime fan you'd know

People who haven't even watched it complain all the time for some reason, just ignore them. They are the same people that rate aot s4 a 10 or 9 and their favorite anime is sao. The ending is perfect there is nothing to complain about and its worth the rating.

Actually first,they dont like bad protagonist-like character and the main point is they dont continue until Fukkatsu No Lelouch where Fukkatsu No Lelouch told everything and explain that Lelouch actually not a bad protagonist.. he had a brilliant idea to make him look bad😭😭

Some people found it confusing. Some people didn’t like certain characters. Some people think it’s overrated and I suppose that makes it “bad”. Some people don’t like popular shows. There’s always hate for something.

Bruh, the ending was so perfect though. Everyone I’ve asked so far says it’s perfect and usually I wouldn’t like these types of endings, but it made the most sense and was executed so damn well. It was the best finale I have ever watched in my opinion. Everything added up at the end.

altho i realy loved the series 2 things just ruined it for me 1 Suzaku Kururugi i fucking hate this guy, spoilers ahead lelouch shouldnt have died but this anoying piece of trash should have. his constant nagging about justice and shit while he killed his own father. the friendly act while around lelouch and the most asshole thing in the serie, blocking lelouch to go to his sister 2 the fucking end as i said lelouch shouldnt have died, its kinda the same as with death note you kinda expect them to die but you want to see them suceed, well i fucking hated the end. and a bonus that whole nina einstein thing: i met this girl lets mastrubate on a table corner and kill everyone who oposes me and be afraid of japanese, loved the series but god dakn these things ruined a good chunk of it

LOL. Some guy says the protagonist is bad. He's one of the most favorited characters on here bud. The few people who think its a bad anime shouldn't count as a majority. Its like people actually saying aot is bad because it's loved by many people who aren't die hard anime fans.

I actually had a discussion with a friend about this, after I recommended it to him, because he didn't like it (while it's one of my favourite anime, and actually the one that got me into watching anime).

He had 3 main issues.

1. He said the pacing is weird, which I didn't notice and have actually never heard anyone say, but i guess that's a personal notion.

2. Why does Lelouch know how to act in all those situations. He knows stuff he shouldn't be able to know.
In my opinion this is not true at all. Lelouch has perfected the art of understanding and manipulating his enemy even without meeting him. Also, he plans his actions. Sure, he has some skills you could call "skripted because it was convenient at the moment", but for me that was never that big of a problem.

3. Like I have already read, he didn't like the ending.
This is total bullshit imo. It concludes Lelouch's plan, which he built over the two seasons, even with losing Control over his power and stuff.

Sure, there are confusing things in this anime, that would make some people drop it. I was very confused by the beginning of R2 for example.

I think it is an amazing anime tho. Seeing how Lelouch fought Brittania and succeeded, kind of losing Control in situations and not always having the upper hand, but still managing to continue his grand plan. It was amazing and i enjoyed it a lot.

My friend also agreed that it's fine and it has some very good components, he would call it an average anime.

People, who straight up hate this anime, without even acknowledging it's good sides, just hate it because it is overall very liked in the community. At least that's my opinion about them.

Yes, but just because he's the most favorited, it doesn't mean no one hates him. Some people dislike him because of his ways, or some say he's a ripoff of a MC in LOGH. Perhaps Lelouch's popularity made a huge hatred towards him.

Oh wait, are you talking to me? Just to clarify, I don't hate Lelouch. I just said the things that I hear most of the time when people saying they hate it. I don't mean that I hate the series. I like Code Geass so much and it's one of my favorites. You can even visit my profile to see the proof.

Man, tbh, I just straight up disliked it as a show for the entirety of the first season. The only reason I didn’t drop it 5 eps in is because it’s my friend’s favorite. One thing that made me really upset though, was how incredibly dramatic and fake everyone seemed; they were all more like caricatures than characters . Also, soo much bs in plot. Compared to something like Death Note, which puts s great deal of effort into making intelligence, tactics, and schemes seem organic, this show has so many false dilemmas and lucky wins for Lelouch its not even possible to overlook as “plot armor” or “protagonist luck”.
2nd season was a lot better in both regards, especially the former.
