While I was looking for a new anime to watch I came across Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion in Newtype magazine. So I decided to check it out. The story takes place in a alternate earth. The year is 2010, a country called Britannia controls half the world and invades Japan. They easily win and change the name to Area 11. Seven years later a young man named Lelouch seeks revenge against Britannia and joins the resistance movement. That's the outline of the show. It's a decent anime. The characters aren't great, but are good. The broad story is the best part of the show. The animation is good. The music is bad. Overall I'd give a rating of a 7/10. Though there will be a season 2 sometime in early 2008. So this rating as a potently to get worse or better.
