The Japanese animated series called the Code Geass was created by Sunrise and directed by Gorō Taniguchi. Its first-ever episode premiered on October 5th in the year 2006 and has been known as’The day a new demon was born’. The anime is set in an alternate timeline.
Code Geass focuses on how the former goddess Lelouch vi Britannia obtains a power known as Geass and decides to use it to obliterate the Holy Britannian Empire, a superpower that’s been conquering various nations.
Code Geass is one of those animes that leave you wondering about it for quite a while once you have finished watching it. It’s a great mix of action, fighting, unconditional love, and the narrative stays powerful.
The final two episodes were aired on July 29, 2007, also received an early screening in Tokyo and Osaka theatres a week before. It’s a total of twenty-five (25) episodes whatsoever.
Lately, the rumors were teasing the fans about the Code Geass period 3. It was that there was NO SEASON 03 supposed to be published. From the year 2016, they did announce a new project, but never a brand new season. However, the lovers ended up misinterpreting it for a brand news season.
It was later demonstrated that this project was actually a single movie that’s called the”Code Geass: Lelouch of the Resurrection”, being announced on November 27, 2016. That has been released in Japanese theatres in February 2019 (this year). Its release in the west remains unknown, but it was decided that it would be released in May 2019, but it hasn’t yet been released all around the globe as of now.
The film follows the current trilogy in the previous year and is a part of the alternate universe. It doesn’t comply with the first TV series. The founders of Code Geass ended off the franchise following season 2 by bringing a conclusion to it that was very much appreciated by the audience.
Funimation had accredited the English dub for Code Geass for its new trilogy. The Code Geass: Lelouch of the Resurrection’s dub is believed to emerge in North American theaters in the year 2019 seemingly, but a specific premiere date hasn’t yet been declared up to now.
The sole motive that stands behind the creation of the single film is that the creators didn’t want to change the ending at all because they were quite happy with how the year had ended, so was the crowd. The creation of Code Geass Season 3 would have changed the end made it worse, and so they chose to create an alternate world; that is, a whole new single movie rather than continuing season 2.
Therefore, the hoax of the Code Geass Season 3 just stayed to be a rumor that some fans desired obtained true, whereas other fans were very happy to have the old ending as the original one and appreciated the decision of the founders of not amending the same.
