Too bad Roze could've been good but instead they wasted it on rushed and confusing ending and other things

I think it's best they move on to something new

very mid. I love all the fanservice, but the general plot and everything else is garbage. it's a cheap fanfiction.

What a rushjob this series was. Major asspulls without any good build ups. Previous main characters all made cameos but kinda unsatisfied how they were used to only struggle against lokis.
Except Lelouch and CC, they just chilling somewhere in a quiet remote area (kinda liked that, but with this world ending plot out of nowhere in the last episodes.. ehhh)
Props to Cornelia who breaks rules (she is THE witch after all) and mfing flips a loki with her lance cause she is badass like that.

A normal ejection system would have saves Ash, but i guess ace pilot units dont come with those no more lol.
Stupid way to kill him off and block the true happy ending.

The antagonist was laughably bad and up to the last episode he had ZERO motivation at all to try to genocide the world.
BS potentially world ending Loki army from nowhere (who gave him unlimited resources to contruct em out of his ass?).

In one way this world's military is more advanced than ours, but in other aspects its heavily lacking.
Why there were no major airpowers or long ranged missiles/bombardments to defeat all the loki's with ease and to bombard the fuck out of Norland who didnt seem to have that good of defences to begin with (taken out by the Slash Harken and metal melee blades LOL)???
Also flying outside the shield would be a sitting duck against literally all the world powers IF they had any long ranged/air capabilities.

Yes as a Code Geass fan there was some fanservice, but holy the plot was just a wasted opportunity.
Liked the nod to using Geass as a performance enhancer, callback to where Suzaku was under the influence of Lelouche's (against his will, but still).

Well as rushed as it was, I still enjoyed it. I have to say I am biased because Ueda Reina is my goddess. With that said tho, it's unforgivable that they silenced her!

The pacing really crushed this. Not too surprised tho, as it felt like they were really greedy with how they made 4 movies out of this. It is really unfortunate. I wish one day we get a full 24 ep version of this, to redeem it.

Kallen!

I could swear the Geass just worked once per target. Not that I remember well the the mechanics at all.

They just exploded Ash. Maybe was a dumb joke from the production, like Ash to ashes.

I like how Catherine just became extremely chill.

Hey, they got a bronze statue. That's nice.
Yeah but the first Geass got removed by Arnold Renck, how he got that Geass canceller tho? don't ask me, must be the crazy scientist or something

This anime has felt like Boruto filler, this last chapter has been terrible.

They don't want to find out that Code Geass isn't generic mecha garbage, that what made it great was Lelouch dragging his penis, leaving grooves, with his intelligence and ingenuity.

Ash's death is pathetic, the reason for making herself mute is rubbish, the girl obsessed with power, who should be convicted of war crimes, standing there so calmly smelling flowers... I could be writing a whole bunch about all the bad, but it's not even worth it. Lelouch gives him the Geass in the face and that's it, what the fuck is this?

I rated it a 6, but the feeling I have is that I should give it a 3.

I thought they would a build it up for a next movie where they would team up with the og cast and the Akito cast, but nah let's kill Norland in the anticlimactic way and kill off Ash for no reason at all

They gotta top milking this franchise to death man, got my hopes it's actually gonna be at least better than Akito.

AND WHERE TF IS LELOUCH?

I'm ngl i kinda wished if lelouch and suzaku used their knightmares aswell to fight charles again.

Actually wanted all the geass owners to fight against him, like akito and so on but lelouch and suzaku reunion mostly tbh, or a whole reunion of the black knights.

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG KALLEN CAMEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE GOT TO SEE KALLEN AGAIN LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Sadly even Kallen's appearence cannot save this episode from it's unsatisfying ending :( I really enjoyed everything leading up to episode 8 (after that things felt kinda rushed? Idk) and even that final fight was dope as hell!!


But why did Ash have to die???? Srsly?? C'mon it was super unnecessary to kill off his character like that at the very end! And Sakuya sealing away her own voice to prevent herself from using her Geass again seems a bit like overkill. I mean couldn't she have just ordered herself to simply not use her Geass anymore?

Oh well at least the technology to revert the Geass still exists, so if she really needed to she could undo it.

Either way, here is hoping that Ash stays true to his name and somehow returns like a Phoenix if there ever is a sequel to this (heck even Lelouch got resurrected somehow, so it's not entirely impossible... I think?)

what was even the point of this show.

the whole series is so voidless. just a few cameos to make people remember they are watching code geass and not this blasphemy.

noland resolution is so bad is almost laughable, i love how the MC tries to dig his movitations saying a bunch of reasons and all he says is "no", even a mime has more personality this guy.

I don't know how they manage to make these shows worse everytime, and they still want to make more?

Maaaaaaaannnn wth

I gotta say just everyone else here that the ending was definitely rushed. Ash dying for a dumb reason and Roland being overhyped to the brim. My expectations for this show were not met. The majority of the creators of Code Geass when it was still airing have moved on or passed away, but that's not a good excuse to let this show be as it is. This show had potential but sadly was sunken. Just like the JJK ending, there were alot of plot holes and it was a rushed ending.

Sakuya can't use her Geass powers or at least pass them down like Lelouch did? If they're gonna revive the series somehow (I hope not), something to do with telepathy or something to pass it her powers.

Also Ash is best boy, no competition.

Well it was fine overall, but it being part of main code geass world made it worse for me. Would`ve been better if it was separate universe with no connection to Lelouch world.

Man.. i felt almost nothing at the last episode. It really feels rushed to the point its hard to feel anything to the actual cast except maybe Ash. The Ending with sakuya becoming mute feels unnecessary rather than showing her resolve. She's just imposing herself a severe punishment.
Ckea said:

even better, why not just search Lelouch, then ask him to take back/remove/seal the Geass. Lelouch and CC im sure would agree since the point here is Sakuya already had full experience and understand what Lelouch means of what the power of King could bring. and she's already made peace to never use it again. Actually, we dont even know how Sakuya met Lelouch in the first place when they've been travelling incognito in remote place.

The antagonist whole raison d etre also feels flat. This is worse than Char aznable clone in Gundam Unicorn. this Charles clone is just evil for no clear reason, just want to exterminate human , thats it. And he dies just like that, despite being a Charles clone, which could be an interesting plot point for the original cast (except lelouch maybe) if they are a bit more involved in the final conflict. a very weak antagonist narrative wise, even the antagonist from Lelouch Rebirth movie has clear motivation.

The scale of conflict suddenly becomes worldwide with so little set-up, and then resolved with so little fanfare... the original cast and also Spin-off character appearing is good, but they didnt do anything other than being fan service, a bad one even. Like Cmon, only Cordelia and Gino seems cared about the conflict. its like they want to make sure this is unlike the world conflict like before so the OG cast dont have to come and flex their ability, but suddenly everyone is involved in the last episode but not being able to do anything substantial.

To this day i still considering R2 is the true ending for Code geass. anything after that are just fanfiction made solely for cash grab

The cameo from old characters is pointless and serve only to remind people that this is still Code geass. they are basically add nothing to the plot. and speaking about the plot it basically the plot of R1 and R2 copy pasted speedrun into 12 episode.

Norland is the most dissaponting villain i have ever seen in the anime. he was overhyped to the max and made to be op as hell only for him to goes down with one attack what the fuck? the show didn't even bother to explain his reason to wipe out the humanity.

Well this was disappointing to say the least.
Also why did Ash die exactly? - Never did we get any indication of power being an issue during this season.
I get that he was commanded to fight against Norland and to prevail at any cost but couldn't Sakuya just have picked him up?

This entire season felt rushed, I never felt any connection the characters at all and the storyboard was just not good.
Somehow they managed to hide these Loki robots for all these years and they somehow had the resources too.

Great animation and at least it was entertaining at times even if it didn't make sense.

Seeing all the "guests" was a guilty pleasure. I will just admit i forgot the majority of Akito's story XD( well it's already 10 years). The character design was top notch as usual.
Just wondering where was Orange-kun or Schneizel.

still seeing this all as an alternate continuation, the movies changed some major plotpoints just to be able to continue lelouch story from being dead to being alive, people who take this timeline in canon is confusing to me since that makes the red thread of the whole story not work. is this what those people wanted fanservice cameos? random stories and milking the original plot point with a freaking charles clone, nah, Ash and Sakuya were an interesting pair that could have that was about the only part that worked and had something to build on but they focused on telling their story super fast which tells me that they want to put out geass stuff to earn money without putting 110% in it.

some things why is Kallen showed 2 seconds in the last episode the original Kallen would not stand for a neo britannia do all that shit after the world lelouch build.

Sakuya's "right ash" in the last scene is almost a jab at all the deniers of the original, also her putting geass on herself, sure i get what they wanted to tell by that but its also kind of "cheap"
Can just dream of a world with geass content that would follow the original ending instead diving into the mystery of geass instead and maybe go back to handdrawn nightmares instead of the cgi, if they could animate nightmares in 2007-2008 then they can do it today.

I had to re-watch some scenes from this show especially the ending I finished several days ago just to be sure so I could say Rozé is better than the original series. No annoying fillers, no unnecessary drama, no Geass convenient failing to generate massacres, no annoying seconday MC who beomes a nuisance to the plot with arrogant morals, no mysterious leader who have a double life in the school but it is somehow difficult for others to discover him, no overoptimistic ending where we have to believe peace is eternally assured -which unlike many of y'all think, it was Resurrection who ruined R2 ending, not Rozé-, we don't have to follow a dude who wants to kill hundreds of people for his sister, no evil Emperor who is re-written and obviously better animation.

What I found curious some people act the original was a masterpiece when Code Geass in general is between ok and poorly written, the series shouldn't be taken too seriously in the first place since it fails in most things it wants to do especially R2. The fact some still want the OG cast which they were already developed in the original instead of creating and using new characters is obviously another case of nostalgia and refusing to give new stuff a chance. I think such people aren't going to enjoy another new Code Geass series at this point if you keep looking at the past. Also, Code Geass is about the Geass, NOT about Lelouch or other characters from the original so the studio is making the correct decision of creating new characters while the Geass still being a part of it.

Dakkan no Rozé is better than the original which include R1, R2 and all movies. 8/10 for the series.

What a complete shitshow of a series.
Worst thing is that there are some bits and moments with value, but writing is just offensively bad throughout and directing is a complete mess. It's like all the worst moments of R2 have been smashed together.

@Nurguburu there is no implications in r2 where peace is eternally achieved, that's not the point of zero Requiem, Lelouch has given the world an option to choose about their future which turns out to be a good thing, even if a war breaks out again other nations will try to help to prevent the cause.
R2 and resurrection are 2 separate timelines, R1 and R2 are tv anime canon while roze and Lelouch of the resurrection are the recap movie Canon.

Man, what a shit ending. Like they killed off Ash for no reason at all. Dude couldn't just detach the blades or take them out of the Foulbout? Also, correct me if I'm wrong since it's been a while since I watched the original Code Geass, but since when could a geass user use their own geass on themselves? Or why not still use a voice modulator that only ever so slightly changes her voice so it still sounds close but is technically not her actual voice so she doesn't accidentally use her geass again? I mean I understand the whole resolve thing, but then she could've used the geass command on herself to make sure she never takes off the voice modulator/uses her geass powers again. Man idk why I bothered to keep watching this.
@JoeHoganExperien WElp Lelouch DID used the geass on himself on the chess match to forget the plan so it could work

I initially came into this series because it carries the Code Geass name, and also Sakuya is nice looking and voiced by Reina Ueda, didn't expect much, yet is still kinda disappointed

The side characters are mostly glossed over with little to no depth and plot points feel like a convenience or just a desperate attempt to build up suspense. Even the death of Ash feels disappointing and feels like a cheap way to grab emotions.

Norland is a disappointing take on a primary antagonist, exterminating humankind just because
Final episodes feels rushed and Sakuya's choice to render herself mute with her geass feels like a easy way out of her sins, despite being a logical choice.

All said, if watched as a standalone series, it's decent enough. Would definitely be better if they gave it 24 episodes instead of squeezing everything into 12

His name is Phoenix! Why?!
Why not say never use geass again and be done? Or even worse be like Nunally, no eyes open no Geass. Or get Ash and die in his place? ( my monologue rant )
Blame Lulu for ruining your life, he could've have done that himself.
It feels meh, another bunch of characters I didn't get enough time to get attached to.
Too fast paced, too many characters, weak writing because just stamp CG on it and it sells.
The best part was the art and the crazy shots, the eye candy.
