He stumbles upon a girl named C.C., who gives Lelouch the power of Geass. His new ability allows him to give orders to anyone and force them to obey.

Code Geass follows all of Lelouch’s adventures as he struggles to take control of Japan and finally take down Britannia. However, things get complicated when his friend turns against him, and other Geass users are involved.

 

What is Code Geass: Boukoku no Akito?

Code Geass: Boukoku no Akito, also known as Code Geass: Akito the Exiled, is one of the anime’s OVA and spin-off series. The series is set in Europe between the two main seasons. The OVA runs for five episodes and focuses on a young soldier named Akito Hyuga and Leila Malcal, both possessing a Geass.

This is one of the few OVAs a fan can skip if they only want to focus on Lelouch’s story and the rebellion in Japan. However, the series gives viewers some additional understanding of the Geass. It also shows how far Brittania spread its influence as a world superpower.

 

Will There Be A Season 3 of Code Geass?

Unfortunately, the rumors about the anime getting a third season were false. Sunrise has yet to announce that they will continue the main storyline of Code Geass. However, a new anime project called “Code Geass: Z of the Recapture” was announced, but it seems fans will be following a new protagonist.

The anime is said to be set after Code Geass: Fukkatsu No Lelouch. While the main character of the main Code Geass anime may not be in the project or play minor roles, at least fans can rest assured that they’ll be getting more from the Code Geass franchise in the coming years. Unfortunately, only a little information has been revealed regarding the project.
