Looking at Emperor, Marianne, Bismarck, and C.C. past is not that bad. If it's turned to be a sequel. It'll be the deciding turn about Lelouch life and death theory as the strongest topic. Will Lelouch is "still" died ? If he's still "died" it'll be hard to pull out the new main characters as Zero role is still maintained by Suzaku. As long as Zero exist, he's the hero, and audience is still be swayed by Lelouch's legacy. How they calling such a vital factor like C.C. as the only Code-owner remains is the following case. Especially when C.C. is the CG mascot judged by her appearance at every CG spin-off. The easiest solution is to sent the stories going to 50 years later or some kind like that If Lelouch is alive--- Personally, I don't like that kind of idea of becoming messiah in the very end like how Kira did on Shinn's importance as a main character in Gundam Seed Destiny. |

The European leader at the end of the war would most certainly appear in this Inter-quel.
I would not be surprised if the story has an epilogue that intersects with the Code Geass epilogue. If they want to lay groundworks for genuine sequels in the future, that's when they would do it. But for now we know the main plot would focus on what happened that caused the Europeans to lose the main war initially. And that means Suzaku doing his thing of being the White Devil. Quote:

PS: It's not impossible for the story to progress to the future though. It can start in 2017 and end already after R2

I doubt this will have anything to do with Hangyaku no Lelouch directly...Boukoku no Akito is probably just the first step (or second if you count that Geass manga) in making Geass into a franchise that they can make multiple anime out of in the future, all focusing on different people during the Britanian war, or possibly other eras. Either way, Lelouch's story is finished, we should probably just accept that...

The only way that I could see Lelouch returning is for the producers to remake Code Geass R2, which will not happen anytime soon. Last edited by darthfury78; 2011-08-04 at 10:19. |

But there is no reason why he can't have guest appearances in some form, human or otherwise. We ARE talking about a world were magic exists, after all.

Since the story takes place in 2017, there might be a few cameos of Lelouch/Zero here and there. Remember that the story takes place around the same time as the First Season of Lelouch of the Rebellion. Brand new characters in a brand new setting. But the style and tone of Season One of the first series are retained.

I am not worried about the new main lead. I am more worried about how Sunrise has trouble making extensions of anything non-Gundam. Remember Mai Hime? Mai Otome was suppose to be a direct sequel, but Sunrise gave up mid-production and decided it was too hard, and just made it an alternate world instead. Building a new franchise and large universe is hard work, and I am not sure Sunrise has the guts to pull through consider the past history.

I believe we have had this discussion before, but I don't think there has been any official word about this next project being an OVA, as opposed to simply the result of a popular desire or speculation about the subject. If you have such information, it would be rather interesting to see where it came from.
In addition, I have to say that I've personally never heard an OVA described as a "season" in any standard context. Not saying it's impossible, but that sounds more than a little counterintuitive. In regular use, both terms are quite different. |

That being said, I remember the information that this Code Geass project being an OVA came from some kind of google translation of something back in early 2010. Or maybe a magazine scan. Who knows how accurate it is. Could very well wind up a full 26 episode tv series. Although it'd be weird to call it "Code Geass Gaiden" in that case. |

Interesting, though there will always be exceptions to any non-scientific rule. However, that was practically incorporated as part of the title (Carnival Phantasm 1st Season), indicating they may already plan to release more than one season, sooner or later.
In any event, my point is that's not going to be the general usage and no such scheme applies in this case. It's uncommon. Quote:
What I distinctly remember is how a lot of people jumped to that conclusion, but whenever I actually took the time to check the magazine scans, translations or other sources of information, there never was any such indication. I've even speculated about that possibility myself, yes, but being fully aware of the total absence of any real confirmation concerning the chosen format. Even today, going back to check the old scans, their translations and even the official Code Geass Gaiden website reveal nothing of the sort. Which is why I don't think it's useful to rely on what has become little more than a game of telephone or Chinese whispers, without asking for something far more concrete and verifiable. Until that happens, it seems slightly more reasonable to assume that "season" refers to a TV series of unspecified length, instead of an OVA release. |
