When i first started watching this anime it was straight after death note and i had that void. So i was on a search for anythign to fill it which made it impossible for me to fully appreciate the anime. i watched it not thinking much of it but when i saw R2 was out i re watched it all with open eyes. Lelouch is the best character he is a genius on a war path.
If you haven't seen an anime or you have lost all hope watch this fucking anime now i beg you.
