@konart Lelouch and Suzuka are likely playing a role because of those pictures. I don't understand why Newtype would place their pictures and a short description next to the announcement if they were completly unrelated to the new story. Then it would've been better to place Renya and C.C. but they didn't. Me personally thinks it's either a spin-off or a sequel aside of the Renya of The Dark story (That still is awaiting to get animated) where Lulu and Suzaku are involved....

He's a fair reliable source when it comes to providing information and translations. He provided the info on the previous announcement with Renya He claims that there isn't any detailed information about the new Geass anime to be found in the article. It's just a announcement of a new anime and nothing more. |

"According to Newtype February issue, director Taniguchi Goro mentioned a new animation of Code Geass. He said it will be announced soon."
That's better, but not conclusive. Could be an OVA at best, and not necessarily a continuation of any sort.

Since they said this new project will happen in the Edo era (i.e. in the past) obviously no previous CG character (except maybe C.C.) will be there (it will take a couple of centuries for them to be born).
So either we will have a brand new cast of characters or time travel will once again be used to mess with our minds. |

What is the difference? "I want to end all wars." "There will be an end to all wars." Anyone who claims that Newtype says there is or will be a new anime announced is spreading wrong info. Don't trust them. |

That's a reasonable distinction, of course, but there is one detail that we have to keep in mind: context. What is the underlying purpose of all these events, from the December 5th stunt to these magazine articles? Sunrise and Bandai wouldn't be wasting so much of their own time if they weren't at least planning to announce something, even if the details may not be officially ready yet. The end of all wars is, evidently, a lot more difficult to arrange than making a new Code Geass project. If there is nothing to announce, it's either part of the promotional strategy or, at worse, a sign that the project itself is still in its early stages or under discussion but the franchise's marketing push has already started. Newtype's article might not be the equivalent of an announcement, but where there's smoke...a fire isn't far behind. |

Is that really an argument? Really, you must be joking.. If a producer tells a magazine he wants to make an announcement soon, it means he will. |

We're Geass fans. Haven't we seen how much trouble we get into when we put words in the creators' mouths and claim they say something that they don't, especially if they go out of their way not to say it? |

Newtype wouldn't post things like that if they haven't got anything planned, we know it will be an animated something. Just not what.
Having a picture of Lelouch and Suzaku is only to draw your attention, if they put in new characters not only do they then announce what they wanted to do later but people might even skip the scans if they zip through the magazine cause they don't know what it is. Seeing Lelouch and Suzaku is like an immediate reaction of "ooh look Code Geass" and it peaks your interest more than having nothing at all. Still we don't know what is going to be animated, it can still take long before anything really happens. I know how Newtype and Sunrise can tease people, in the upcoming couple months my guess is that we still know nothing for certain. Maybe a few lose words or lines or quotes but that is all. It might be an OVA series or the new manga project being animated, anyway they still have a long way to go. Seeing as geass is a successful series they will have no problem with airing in the right season and the right time slot, my idea is that during summer or late spring we hear exactly what is going on and if it is an animated series and no OVA (which it can be as well) that it will air in fall on the popular Sunday slot (I think it is Sunday.. FMA2 airs on that slot atm). They wouldn't air in summer, that is bad business, spring is too soon so they still have a long time to tease us |

We've known since December that something is planned, but the next plan is not necessarily animation, and if it were, we don't know if it will become a reality. Remember, the producer doesn't know, and states that outright. Let's not jump to conclusions.
