Code Geass is an anime that most people regard to be the best... If I was a secular reviewer, I would too! But I'm not
Positives: Code Geass has a wonderful and deeply thought out story that is perfectly handled with a cliffhanger here and there to keep you going. There are some perfect twists that will make you either cry or jump for joy.
The character development is great, but I cant say the same for all the character designs, although some were really cool (Zero), some were just plain weird... As expected, Sunrise gives us some really cool mech scenes that are all really epic :p
The music was also great, I really loved the 2nd opening, and the OST is a masterpiece, I just wish that they had more of it. The voice work is really great in the dub, unfortunately I haven't time to watch the subbed version.
Lelouch's geass is really cool btw :3
Now to the negatives...
Negatives: THESE ARE BASED ON MY VALUES AS A CATHOLIC TEEN
Swearing (in the dubbed) is kept a the Damn and Hell level... Very rarely did I hear a Bastard, and I never heard Fuck or Goddammit, which in itself is a positive.
There is two unexpected topless flashes in the series, this is really why I gave this series a 7... There is no more explicit toplessness or nudity, but in one episode a girl is seen masturbating on a table edge, it is dark and nothing else is seen. There is one shower scene as I remember, and it is blurred out. The only other sexual thing could be that how Kallen pilots her Guren is suggestive.
There isn't too much blood and there is NO gore in the series, but there is enough blood to spook anyone under 13...
----------
This series is WAY to dark for anyone under 13, and I recommend that parents watch this before their kids, so they can get a feel for it. While it can be considered a masterpiece, it still has it's moral flaws
I give Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion a 7 (while it IS a masterpiece, it has gaping moral flaws)
Thanks for taking time to read my review :D contact me if you have any questions!
