| If you don't like it right now then you won't like the later parts because the story becomes a mess but people just forget every problem it has just because the ending is good. |
| Bad and boring? could u please elaborate a little? Code geass's politics,reasonable mind games and Great character writing makes it what it is. |

| not with that attitude |

AnimeDownUnder said: Hi, i'm watching Code Geass because for years i've heard people hype it as one of the best anime and i've put off watching it until recently I started watching it and i'm up to episode 7 right now and it's really really boring and bad so far. What episode does Code Geass actually get good or what is the redeeming qualities I should look for? or can someone explain why it's good? Don’t listen to the guy responding to you. He’s an elitist. Code geass is amazing just stick with it |
 |
| Watch atleast up to episode 13 that was the episode that hooked me and if u don’t like it at that point don’t watch it |

I watched it because of the hype as well and it was really boring and bad for me too. Unfortunately, it never got good and imo the second season was even worse than the first season. Code Geass has a manipulative MC that's why a lot of people like it. i'm telling u man lelouch must've geass'd mfs to think its good |

AnimeDownUnder said: KP_SENSEI said: Bad and boring? could u please elaborate a little? Code geass's politics,reasonable mind games and Great character writing makes it what it is. It's boring because I hate politics, same reason I hated Legend of galactic heroes. Yeah they have good "strategy" and mind games but a show has to be good enough for me to watch it. I don't think it's good, that's why i'm asking when does it start getting good. Because even the so called mind games and strategy are not as good as other anime i've seen like jojo's, death note, monster, great pretender, golgo 13, no game no life, etc...I just think it's boring and the fights are not good either and lelouch i've heard is this really good character but I ain't liking him so far. You could say that I don't think the characters or the story is very good so it's hard to get into an anime when you don't like the characters or story or the politics or the fights or the mecha or the animation, etc... Well,Then the anime isnt "bad",its your choice that is kinda different tbh. Also,NGNL,death note and phantom blood mainly focused on strategic warfares,while cose geass focuses more on the psychological part.If itnis not your type then u should drop it,the show just gets dark from the 13th or the 14th ep. |

| Personally, it never got better for me. The last few episodes from R2 were pretty good though. Other than that, the show was pretty unremarkable and at times, off-puttingly bizarre. |

What episode does Code Geass actually get good or what is the redeeming qualities I should look for? or can someone explain why it's good? Taste differs. It is alright to not enjoy a popular anime. If you don't enjoy it, it is alright to drop it. I have dropped a lot of popular anime, Kaguya-sama, Franxx thing, Attack On Titan, etc. I enjoyed Code Geass: Akito The Exiled but do not enjoy Code Geass: Lelouch Of The Rebellion. A lot of people mentions that it has a good ending. Reality, not really, since it is done by plot armour, a lot of characters cheat death, especially Suzaku. And plot armour is very common in CG: LLOR. The only good part in CG: LLOR is the politics (especially the resistance movements), which are very realistic I will recommend some anime better than Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion: Mobile Suit Gundam (Every Universal Century outside G-Saviour): UC Gundam has better politics, plot, characters tham Code Geass: LLOR. Mobile Fighter: G Gundam: Has plot twists done right, not done with plot armour like LLOR. It still carries the Gundam's original message "Will there ever be true peace?" Tenkyou No Alderamin (LN, anime is incomplete): Has a lot of mind games similar to CG: LLOR. I have checked your MAL profile, I think you can consider Mobile Fighter: G Gundam, since it is shounen-action, it also better message, characters and plot twists then CG: LLOR. And to the rest of the people who are attacking OP for not enjoying CG: LLOR. It is normal for someone to not enjoy your favourite anime, because everyone has different tastes. To be a fan of a certain fiction, you need to acknowledge its good parts and bad parts. There is no fiction known as a masterpiece, every fiction has flaws. My favourite anime is Gundam and I acknowledge that SEED and SEED Destiny has a lot of problems (plot armour, cartoon war story, horrible characters). |

| There's not much redeeming qualities for CG tbh, it's a mess of asspulls and plotholes but I still enjoyed it from the very first episode. The next big event happens in ep 11 and 22 so try to watch till there and if it still does not peak your interest, then it's just not for you. |

| keep watching, it gets better. |

I think if you only focus on the story, Evangalion is a pretty average show |
I love Monogatari Series |

I don't care for the Attack on Titan anime, but I don't hound people who do.ickoriss said: This is the same guy that wrote me multiple paragraphs on why he thinks Evangelion is 'objectively bad'.

AnimeDownUnder said: Franklin1-N said: If you don't like it know better you drop it. I don't like it, but it's one of those anime you have to complete just to have an opinion on it and rate it. I don't think you should rate an anime a low score without watching it all, but I also think should complete the whole anime before giving final thoughts on it. There's been quite a few anime I didn't like during the first half and then I end up liking them FMA brotherhood is one of those anime that i'm glad I never dropped because last half was really good. I kinda get the impression that Code Geass is like that maybe it gets better in the last half but first half starts off boring and slow? is this the case or does it just stay bad the whole time? I will give it a chance to get better but I'd like to know what episode I have to wait to, the above comments say episode 13 so i'm going to try watch up to then The stakes are escalating pretty steadily throughout the anime with the exception of some random sidetracks here and there. I mean, his goal is to take over the Holy Britanian Empire. That's kind of a big task. And it has the best ending in anime... But that's 50 episodes in, so that's a hard recommendation, if you aren't sold already. |
 |
| Drop it move on to other series It's clearly not for you |
 |
| Well, as you mentioned, if by "fun" you mean shonen-esque battles and sick powers and stuff like that, then no, CG isn't that type of show. There'll be a lot of politics and talking and meticulous mind games in the rest of the show, so if that's not your cup of tea, just drop it I guess. |
| I don't speak English that much, so please cut me some slack |
