And again, let's not forget MBS produces both shows, and its their timeslot that they are trying to revive with this show. I'd think that they would want it to succeed, even more than Sunrise does. So even if Sunrise employees have said that they plan on releasing it in the fall, there might be other factors to consider
Nah, Code Geass season 2 in Fall is pretty much 100% confirmed. Nothing will change. There will likely be less Newtype cover domination this time because it's not really required. Geass will continue to feature the same characters that everyone already knows. The reason they pushed Geass so hard when it started was to springboard it to success. Now it will simply sell itself. It's not like they really cared to maintain the quality of Geass in terms of animation, pacing and general quality anyway, and it's STILL popular. Clearly the focus in October will be on Gundam 00, but there's no way they're not going to continue throwing out Geass stuff as long as it's still hot.
