The story of this series is incredible as it follows a genius boy with the unique ability to control minds and must use it to take down the most powerful nation in history which controls much of the world from the ground up. It progresses well and ata perfect pace with the series being broken into 2 parts which, despite being years apart, are equally as amazing. The story takes incredible twists and turns so it is impossible to know what will happen next. The story also manages to be a mecha series and use it as the back round aspect to its fullest.
Art)
The art in this series is its week spot because it presents a very unique character design of having very thin almost odd looking characters. The upside to the art is the way that the mecha's are designed to look very sleak and one of the few series that produces mecha's that dont look like Gundams.
Sound)
The music used in this series is good although it is not a memorable aspect of the series. Not much can be said except that the songs selected are good in my opinion. Unfortunately, the opening themes' animation is not quite capable of summing up the series well and really give you know idea as to the plot since Code Geass' plot would be difficult to sum up in images alone.
Characters)
The characters in the series are its finest point as it presents very unique characters and gives adequate screen time to each and everyone of them. The common recurrence of characters switching sides between good and evil and being constantly pitted against each other makes things all the better. There are hence no characters that are simply loveable all the time. Lelouch Lamperouge, the main character, is the most interesting as he constantly must deal with issues of morality and having the world on his shoulders while a small backround love story develops. The villains are also very well done as it is often difficult to simply not like them due to there motivations not being definably good or bad.
